Dark Eldar

The latest chapter is packed with exciting plot twists! Come check it out!

Feeling sleepy, Loki quietly returned to the bamboo hut. He had been feeling "inexplicably melancholy" lately.

"Maybe it's because of Benjamin? If I tell him I'm going to 'go solo' (leave the party), will he complain? Probably not. But going solo is boring. Teaming up with two friends, we can chat and laugh along the way, isn't that nice?" Loki fell asleep with this "contradiction" in his mind.

Things in this world are never entirely "logical" or "self-evident."

[Easter Egg] For example: Elder Schopenhauer's "illegitimate son"—"Wilberg" (level 51)—is almost forgotten by the world. At least in Elder Schopenhauer's heart. Wilberg's title is "the one who reaps without sowing," a title the renowned Elder Schopenhauer "hides" quite well. In this alternate world, and in all other regions, no one dares to talk about Schopenhauer's son, "Wilberg." Why can't the most powerful superhero in this alternate world raise an "excellent" child? Wilberg, like other flamboyant offspring, has become a "one who reaps without sowing." In this alternate world, Schopenhauer frowns. He is never worried about his "illegitimate son" because he has an even more outstanding younger son, "Schopenhauer II" (8 years old, level 22). With this obedient boy, the flamboyant offspring "Borgwill" has gradually faded from Schopenhauer's memory. This is also the best way for everyone or every hero to find relief. "Selective forgetting of the plot." (Note: Large-scale "deletions" are absolutely forbidden in this alternate world! Doing so would only make the entire plot more "boring." The high-ranking mage Elder Schopenhauer of this alternate world was the first to perceive this "secret." "Selective amnesia" can be called a skill, or it can be considered a "pseudo-bug." The source code is comjoy: "If everyone could forget their own 'pain,' wouldn't the entire alternate world become 'paradise'?" Imagine: "When people no longer consider problems according to traditional thinking patterns?" Who would fight all the "monsters" and "elite monsters" in the multiple worlds? Everything would become dull and lifeless...)

The next morning, Loki got up first. He called Benjamin, they quickly ate breakfast, paid the bill, and set off. The tip had already been paid.

"Brother, are we still going to look for the 'Marked Ones' quest today?" Benji asked knowingly. He had recently received some money (40 G), and was quite pleased. After all, in this other world, that amount of money was enough to show off for a while.

The Wenger Plain has a typical topography, dirt roads, and not much scenery.

"Okay, Ben! Let's keep searching! As high-level mages from another world, if we can't even complete a world quest, wouldn't that be a joke? Our perception is superb; if we still can't find the 'Marked One,' then who are these quests for?" Loki said as they walked. Occasionally, small monsters (level 40, earth elemental lifeforms) would appear along the way, but they dared not approach. Benjamin's appearance—handsome and shy young man—made him look like a high-level mage from another world, especially considering his attire. The small elemental monsters didn't dare approach at all, all quickly detouring past, causing dust to fly everywhere.

"Brother Loki, why don't we summon our mounts?" Benjamin suggested. He didn't see anything wrong with it.

"Ben, don't you want to walk?" Loki was in a slightly bad mood today, probably because he hadn't rested well.

"Brother! It's not that I don't want to, it's just that I feel like if we keep walking like this all day long, it'll never end! Summoning a mount will improve our efficiency!" Benjamin explained. He was walking quite fast now, seemingly trying to shake off his brother Loki. (A little moodiness)

Loki, of course, wasn't going to be outdone, and quickly caught up with Benjamin's pace. His stamina was extraordinary! (Loki's total walking distance, without exaggeration, has essentially "measured" every map in the multiple worlds. His early "arduous process" of forging artifacts was also mainly done on foot. He always maintained a low profile, and no one ever tried to steal his equipment.)

"Ben, Ben! Slow down, don't fall!" Loki joked, trying to lighten the mood.

"You're the one who's falling down!" Benjamin replied.

"Ben, you always assume we're the most powerful characters on every map! Let me tell you the truth, there's a reason Elder Schopenhauer doesn't dare to come out! Don't believe me? Think about it yourself!" Loki saw that Benjamin was tired from walking, so he threw out a "complex question" for Benjamin to think about.

"Huh? Loki, you're kidding, right?" Benjamin, of course, didn't believe him. He turned around and asked with a grin.

"I knew you wouldn't believe me!" Loki didn't explain further; he knew, "Almost no one would believe it. It's just like how the true owner of the 'Mold of the Creator' is himself—everyone would question it..." Loki glanced at his watch. ("21-Jewel Mechanical Watch," Goblin Advanced Engineering Blueprint)

"Benjamin, why don't you take a break? I'll tell you everything you don't know!" Loki said, using Blink.

Benjamin was indeed tired, but he still listened to his senior brother. After all, he was young and sometimes "rebellious," and he was about to break free from the "fixed mindset" of the otherworldly doctrines.

"Sorry! Loki, I acted impulsively just now. I shouldn't have argued with you! I don't know why, sometimes I get inexplicably angry inside me. Please accept my apology. I really, really... how should I put it, I think I lost control." Benjamin said, staring into the air, and plopped down on the floor. After uttering a string of nonsensical words, he gulped down water.

“Brother Benjamin, I understand, it’s not your fault. I was in a similar situation to you at first. I would get angry when I saw Elder Sun Yun or Elder Schopenhauer. Although they generally didn’t criticize me, when I was young, I felt, just like you, that there was little hope in continuing like that,” Loki said earnestly.

"Brother Loki, you're not old at all!" Benjamin laughed.

"Yeah! I can never forget them. Sigh. Never mind. By the way, wasn't I just going to tell you a secret? Don't you want to know?" Loki asked mysteriously.

"No, Brother Loki! I always believe in you! Because if you didn't have your own thoughts, you definitely couldn't forge the artifacts. They all say it's all about luck. I refuse to believe it! I will forge an artifact exactly like yours!" Benjamin VI finally expressed his truest thoughts.
