Chapter 242 The afterglow of the past

Faced with Tang Ze's question, Lyon just pushed the wine poured out of his hand forward, and the transparent liquid shaking into the goblet a tiny light, as clear as if it was just a glass of clear water.

Colorless wines are rare in the current velvet bar, and Kummel is one of them.

This is what he wants to sit down and say slowly.

From time to today, Tang Ze wakes up on time in the velvet bar almost every night, even on days of sleep deprivation. He hasn't dreamed for a long time.

As Lyon said, his guests are not qualified to dream.

In this world, Lyon is the only person who can understand all Tang Ze's strange words and can also answer the jokes. The two of them quickly became familiar with each other.

Tang Ze, who drank and blew water in his dreams every day and talked to Lyon many times, quickly understood his body language, suppressed his impatientness, and sat down on the chair opposite him.

"What is the 'Holy Grail'... As a lie master, you know very well?"

Rarely, Lyon used a title for the protagonist in the original P5 work.

"The pseudo-god Aldabet, an evil god formed by the gathering of human laziness, or an evil god representing the negative aggregates of human collective subconsciousness." Tang Ze talked about the original setting, thought for a while, and added, "But from the beginning, this is a world where the cognitive world and the real world have merged. Will Aldabet still exist?"

Lyon also poured himself a glass of wine, supported the bar, and looked at a dim dance floor in the distance - it was the personality mask operation venue belonging to Tang Ze.

Unlike the Gemini's guillotine, in Tang Ze's bar, his mask summoning and synthesis are all completed on the dance floor. When the lights are turned on, the platform illuminated by the spotlight and the dim crowd around him.

Tang Ze initially also doubted whether Lyon was really velvet living in people.

After all, it is well known that under normal circumstances, Velvet Assistants should be of the opposite sex...

But when he began his first personality mask operation, watching Lyon pick up the entire book of persona and summon and synthesize it freely, he dispelled this doubt.

The fake Igor does not have the power to live in velvet. In the original work, in order to cover up his identity, he handed over the action of operating the Book of Personality to Gemini throughout the process.

Being able to complete these operations independently, at least Lyon did not lie to him in his identity, he was indeed Tang Ze's velvet assistant.

"If the evil god formed by human collective subconsciousness in the P5 world is Aldabet, then what about Conan's world?" Lyon opened his head with only one head, which made Tang Ze feel a little chilling on his back. "The reason why the artificial pseudo-god is Aldabet is the essence of human laziness and biological instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm, which makes the public tend to escape, tend to give up thinking, and instead desire to have a supreme will that can decide everything on their behalf. Then what kind of collective subconscious will do you think will be formed with the nature of this world?"

Tang Ze shook his back and felt a little chilling.

As the ruling god, Aldabeth, after all, was born like this in response to human nature, not that he chose to be like this.

But what if the background of the story is replaced by the world of Kexue...

I always feel that what was born should not be Aldabet, but something like the evil god of Cthulhu.

From Tang Ze's expression, he guessed his thoughts. Lyon bent his eyes and pulled the topic back to the Holy Grail: "The 'Holy Grail' is actually the 'secret treasure' of the collective subconscious, and it is the 'twisted root of desire' of mankind. He is a man-made god, not a real god, and will be destroyed and usurped. Even if someone really picks up a piece of the Holy Grail, it's nothing strange, right?"

"That's still very strange, okay!" Tang Ze protested, "Who can climb to the bottom of the subway to pick the Holy Grail! How could the good Holy Grail break? That doesn't mean that the Holy Grail has already..."

Tang Ze's voice stopped.

Lyon's smile became even bigger: "What are you afraid of? Let's continue to say, I have always been very brave."

"...it has been broken." Tang Ze said the second half of the logic, raised the wine glass in his hand and drank the strong wine exuding herbal smell.

I took a few sips to suppress my shock, but this one was still a bit scary.

"As for what I know," Lyon shook his glass of wine, and his golden eyes reflected a little bright light on the liquid surface. "I do know what, I may know everything. But I am just a shadow of a dream, I just stared at your forward eyes, I just wait for the balance of your choice... All I know is the past, all I can do is judge, and the real choice is yourself, and the way out is you. Don't be afraid, I am your assistant, your mirror, your companion and accomplice, and I will not hurt you."

Speaking of this, the curve of the corners of his mouth converged and he whispered: "To be precise... I really did nothing."

Tang Ze looked at Lyon's drooping eyebrows and couldn't help but say a complaint: "Why, you are Elizabeth, too. You are leaving the room to start your own journey, and saving the young man who sacrificed himself to save the world?"

"Puff..." Lyon, who was pouring wine into his mouth, choked at him, and while coughing, he wiped the corners of his mouth with a chuckle, "You know how to deal with me..."

"There's no way. I'm not very adaptable to the atmosphere." Tang Ze avoided the wine he squirted out and sighed, "Don't be like I might be good at it. Tell riddles here. Say something human tone, what's going on?"

"Nothing happens, I just feel a little emotional." Lyon rolled his eyelids, stopped stretching his expression, and sighed, "Don't ask me, I've told you everything I can. If there is something I know but don't say, I don't have the right to say it."

"Okay, let's just think so." Tang Ze shook his head, feeling that Lyon's hint was indeed in place. Maybe he had no right to tell the truth, so he let go of this topic and asked curiously, "You are the 'judgment', you said again, you are waiting for my choice, then it seems that you are my examiner? No matter which side of the main plot, I am serious about promoting it. How have my grades been so far?"

"Judgement" Tarot is a very important picture of Arcana, which will fundamentally reverse the plot.

This standard was also one of the reasons why Tang Ze speculated at that time that Lyon would be the "trial".

Tang Ze himself has a perspective that is higher than everyone else. Except for Lyon, who has this information like him, it is hard to imagine who can make a judgment and turn the story around.

Lyon put down the half glass of wine he wasted and gave Tang Ze a smile: "Hasn't my rating been written for you?"

"Oh? So, those coop comments are not what you evaluated them, but you are evaluating me?" Tang Ze raised his eyebrows slightly surprised.

This is a bit interesting... I have to go back and take a look at the words again.

"It's true. You don't have to belittle yourself... You are a competent lieutenant and a competent guest." Lyon raised his white gloves' hand and snapped his fingers crisply, "So..."

【rank up!Rank 2】

[Thank you for your efforts these days, お康.]

I feel like I've stopped, but I haven't completely stopped.

Let's knock it for now, if there is no chapter two, I will touch it again tomorrow during the day

Sleepy like a sand squid
