Chapter 215 I Want to See Twilight

The old man looked very sharp.

Not only in his appearance and demeanor, but also in his temperament, he gave people a feeling of being like a sharp blade.

Even though he was eating breakfast seriously, there was only an egg, a small bowl of dried radish, a bowl of white porridge, and a steamed bun on the table in front of him. He looked very easy-going, but he still couldn't hide his sharpness.

When Levi came in, the old man looked up at him. Surprisingly, there was not much uncomfortable scrutiny in his eyes. He just gestured to Levi at the seat opposite him.

"It's just right, let's have breakfast together."

After seeing the bishops send him here, they retreated respectfully, and Levi guessed the identity of the old man in front of him.

But he didn't show any fear, so he sat directly opposite the old man, picked up the boiled egg, cracked the shell, and peeled it.

The old man just looked at him quietly, without any intention of hiding his eyes, until Li Wei peeled the eggshell clean, noticed his gaze, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and hold the egg to indicate whether he wanted to eat it, the old man chuckled.

"Your identity information was sent to me last night." The old man said calmly, "Sun Wei, grew up in Hongzhuan Street, Chongmin District. Your parents died early due to illness, but they also left you a considerable family business. When you were 12 years old, you took over the three houses, two storefronts, and a flower shop in your family. You relied on these to live alone until you were 20 years old."

"These are all things recorded in the Shadow Prime Minister's database. It is simple and straightforward, and you can see the end of your life at a glance. According to the Shadow Prime Minister's summary and evaluation of you, you are a mercenary, shrewd, and calculating person."

All the content he said was compiled into the database by Chen Guangsheng, and those information were the results of the Shadow Prime Minister's own analysis based on the compiled information.

In fact, on that red brick street that Levi had never been to, there were indeed three houses, two storefronts and a flower shop under his name. After these data were recorded in the shadow prime minister, they became the highest basis. Even the original owners of these properties on that street did not know when they had completed the change.

And the fact that the old man in front of him could get this information was enough to explain something.

After hearing this, Levi nodded with emotion.

"Only by living alone can you know the warmth and coldness of human feelings. It's not wrong to be a little shrewd and mercenary, right? But what does this have to do with me not being able to enter the paradise? Those bishops said that the final right of interpretation is in your hands?"

The old man just smiled and looked at him.

"Paradise is a place where people can make their dreams come true. People who love money will have countless wealth in it, people who are lustful will have beautiful women in it, and people who are greedy for power will have absolute power in it. Similarly, people who miss the past can return to the past in it, and people who look forward to the future can see the future in it. It is a place where the despicable can get despicable and the good can embrace goodness."

"Whether good or bad, these are human desires. Paradise is a place to satisfy desires, but such a place does not welcome one kind of people."

He has said this much, of course Levi can't still not understand what he meant.

"People who have no desires?"

"According to Twilight, that is a saint." The old man replied, staring at Levi's eyes and not moving away, just continued to ask, "A small businessman who is judged by the shadow prime minister as mercenary and shrewd, can he be a saint?"

Levi was silent.

He knew that the household registration card that Chen Guangsheng had made for him would not withstand scrutiny. After all, he had never lived in this city before. Even if the fabricated data was true, no one would suspect that there was something wrong with reality if it did not match the reality.

But what he did not expect was that the problem would be exposed so quickly.

He had just dealt with the Twilight Church, and the biggest doubt had been exposed.

But to be honest, Levi did not think that he had really reached the level of a saint without desires.

If he really was like that, how could he be so eager to pass the game and go home?

Isn't it that he wants to get out early, return to reality, get the bonus compensation, and start a life of eating and waiting to die?

Similarly, he is not without lust, but Levi knows that he is in the game, and there must be technicians outside who have been watching his game progress. Levi has hormonal impulses, but he is not a pervert who is willing to share his sexual behavior publicly.

He also has greed, but when the money in the game is not difficult to obtain, and he realizes that everything here is fake, the money is just a string of numbers to him. If this string of numbers can help him upgrade, it's good, but if it can't upgrade, it's useless.

As for the desire to kill, it's not necessary to mention it. He kills people completely at will. Sometimes it's just for his own happiness and to satisfy his mood. Isn't this obviously also a desire?

Why did Paradise judge that he has no desires and reject him.

Maybe it's because all his desires are actually imposed on the psychology of playing games?

Paradise is something in this world after all, and Levi is indeed purely desireless for this world. Playing games is the biggest way to satisfy his desires.

But it was obvious that Li Wei couldn't explain this directly. It was okay to just talk to Xin Guohong before. After all, the old guy was going to die, so it didn't matter what he said. Now he was not so arrogant.

"So, what do you want to do if you donate money to the church and want to enter paradise? Since you have done such a thing, there must be a purpose. There is a purpose but it is not a desire. I am very curious about this kind of thing."

The old man looked at the silent Levi and continued to ask.

Levi didn't answer immediately, he weighed it in his mind.

What is the appropriate answer at this time?

If he just insists on being stubborn and never admits that he is a "saint" and insists that he has desires and donates money to get the paradise just to satisfy his desires, then the old man in front of him will not be able to do anything no matter how high his status is. What to do with him.

At most, Li Wei gave up his identity as "Sun Wei" and died once to get rid of suspicion.

His experience bar is locked now, there will be no price for death, and his connection with Chen Guangsheng is always there. After he is resurrected, he will have no worries at all if he finds him and takes on a new identity.

But the attitude of the Twilight Church was still somewhat unpredictable to Levi.

When he was studying English literature with Zhao Mingda at the college, he learned from the words of the former deputy director of the Institute of Science and Education that the difference between Pope Twilight and the current one was extraordinary.

He didn't seem to have anything to do with the Twilight Church before. Before he became the Pope, he wasn't even a clergyman. He just airborne to take the position of Pope when the church had a vacancy.

And neither the church nor the central government had any objections to this matter.

After the Pope came to power, the church continued to reform itself in his hands. It was not the kind of self-deception reform in the academy, but the kind of reform that truly started from the top and cut out the rotten flesh one by one.

The bishop of the Diocese of the Sun, although what he did behind the scenes was very abstract, on the surface he was really good at pretending. As a bishop, he was able to kneel down and apologize to the workers. This is completely in line with the church's view of the clergy. personnel requirements.

Just because the sun is too far from the center, the archdiocese can only send walking priests to inspect the sub-dioceses. Through secret visits, they can understand the lower class people's opinions of the church and then judge whether a bishop is qualified. At this point, the sun The bishop did a good job on the surface.

After all, he would pretend to be innocent in order to cover up his evil deeds. In the past, the bishops of the dioceses were directly colluding with the local government without even pretending.

And in the college, Le Yue is also a senior member of the church. She does not hide her disdain and dislike for the formal students and college faculty. Not to mention the things she was involved in later, she also took the initiative to help those people at the beginning. Special admissions students escaped from the college.

After coming to the Central Committee, Levi had an intuitive impression of the current reputation of the Twilight Church, and it was obvious that the Church was not just talking about certain things, they were actually doing it.

Such a simple archdiocese provides aid to the poor and ridicules and rejects those in power. Even the paradise project that has caused great controversy now has a hidden agenda.

Levi felt that he might try to be honest for once. Now that the church had some kind of "misunderstanding" about him after the incident in Paradise, this "misunderstanding" was obviously beneficial to him. Anyway, the worst consequences would be the same. Yes, he can accept it.

"I heard that the underlying logic of the paradise was created using Twilight?" Levi asked without avoiding the old man's gaze.

In response, the old man nodded.

"Yes, it does use some of Twilight's content."

Levi said directly.

"I want to see with my own eyes whether Twilight really exists. This is why I am qualified to donate money to buy the park."

"What's the reason?"

Levi shook his head.

"No reason, just pure curiosity and wanting to know."

After he answered, the atmosphere became a little quiet for a while. The old man seemed to be thinking about something. He stared at Levi's face without looking away.

After a long time, he spoke again.

"I believe there is no reason for what you said. If you really want to see Twilight for something, then the paradise will not turn you away."

Levi blinked.

"So, can the church satisfy my small request? I can't enter the paradise, and I don't want you to withdraw the one million donated. Just let me see Twilight's entity."

His words made the old man burst into laughter. The old man wearing a linen patched robe pointed at him, as if he were looking at a panda with its arms akimbo asking for bamboo.

"Donate one million and ask to see Twilight? You really dare to think so."

Levi didn't understand what the problem was. Isn't Twilight in the archdiocese? What kind of shameful thing is that?

The old man also saw the confusion on Levi's face, and he said softly.

"Twilight does have an entity, but it can't be seen if you want to see it. Even I usually don't have that qualification. If you want to see Twilight with your own eyes, you have to pay more, not just money. can represent.”

Having said this, he suddenly paused for two seconds before continuing.

"You did not enter paradise. No matter what the reason is, the church should compensate you. If you are willing to accept it, I can make the decision to give you a chance to see the twilight entity. But in the end, can you seize this opportunity? Whether you want to see you or not depends on what you do."

Levi didn't hesitate at all about this proposal, he agreed directly.

"Okay, I'm willing to give it a try."

After hearing Levi's answer, the old man quickly called a bishop who was guarding outside the yard and asked him to bring Levi a new set of twilight priest robes and a Starlight Cross badge.

"From now on, you will be a walking pastor of the church, but you have no missionary mission. You just need to stay with me temporarily these days."

Levi took over the black robe and Starlight Cross badge. He turned to look at the old man who had stood up from the bench again.

Only now did he realize that the old man was very tall, almost as tall as him. The two of them stood opposite each other and could look at each other at eye level.

"After chatting for so long, I still don't know what I should call you from now on?"

"My surname is Le, please call me Lao Le."

Just when Levi was defending his rights in Twilight Archdiocese for not being able to enter Paradise.

The Central Institute of Physics is also completely dismantling and studying the silver card and communicator issued by the church.

"What is basically certain is that the structure of that paradise utilizes the computing power and logic of the Shadow Prime Minister, and the Shadow Prime Minister is also involved in the act of guiding human brain waves into deep consciousness."

After getting this result, the cabinet minister who came here specially for this purpose couldn't help but frowned.

"How much authority does the church have over the Shadow Prime Minister?"

"Only His Majesty knows this, but judging from this paradise project, the authority of the church is very high, even surpassing all research institutes."

After hearing this answer, the minister looked worried. He did not think about this issue in detail, but instead asked the key questions that the cabinet and the royal family were really concerned about.

"Then after this paradise guides people's consciousness, are there any disadvantages or other side effects?"

A deputy director of the Institute of Physics shook his head.

"We can't observe this for the time being. After all, this is just the first time someone has used it. If we want to make a judgment and draw a basis, we need more cases."
