Chapter 889 Continued
After getting off the plane and looking at the familiar scenery around them, both Selene and the Dragon King felt much better.
"You two, tomorrow is Saturday and the school is on vacation. It's time for the Youth Academy Club to get together." Greg said.
"Yeah, we'll be there."
"Okay~ See you tomorrow then." Greg left with his suitcase.
But he didn't go far from the airport. Instead, he rented a room in a hotel near the airport and waited for the next flight.
An hour later, Greg returned to the airport to meet Mrs. Shenpi's assistant.
The assistant was now in a wheelchair, looking much better than before. Greg took the assistant from the organization member and took her to the subway near the airport.
On the subway, there were not many people in the carriage where the two of them were, after all, it was already past the morning rush hour.
"Thank you so much this time!" the assistant said gratefully.
"You're welcome. We are all members of the club and should help each other." Greg said with a smile.
The assistant looked a little surprised. "So you're so dedicated to the club?"
"Yeah. This is a big family. As long as we work together, I think we will get better and better in the future," said Greg.
"You're such a positive person," the assistant said, feeling a bit amused. "Actually, I've always thought you were a weird person."
"Hmm? What's strange?" Greg asked curiously.
"I know you... are a god. But when I'm with you, I often overlook this fact. You're just like an ordinary person... Of course, I don't mean to belittle you. I just feel that... you're different from what I think." said the assistant.
"This is quite normal, because I am now a human being. I can no longer feel the infinite feeling I had when I was in the divine state."
"As a mortal, I am deeply aware of my own limitations. This feeling is a serious negative one."
"My heart and energy have been infinitely reduced. I can no longer love everyone unconditionally. I can only act according to my own desires. I have developed a behavioral pattern of distinguishing between close and distant people and comparing myself with others," said Greg.
"That must be a painful feeling, right?" the assistant asked.
"Well. As long as you are human, you will always feel pain. I think you can feel it too, right?" Greg said.
"Ah? I don't feel much pain. Maybe it's because I've never been a god and haven't experienced that sense of infinity? Without the comparison, it won't be too painful. But there will be some pain occasionally. But it won't be pain all the time." said the assistant.
"Then you must be a person with a strong heart. As long as your heart is strong enough, you won't suffer much." Greg smiled.
"...Well, I don't know either. Sometimes I still waver. And every time I waver, I feel pain." The assistant recalled the helpless situation he felt when he was in the research institute.
Greg noticed his assistant's mood, so he changed the subject. "Although humans are prone to pain, they have many ways to deal with it. For example, they have invented many delicious foods. Is there anything you'd like to eat?"
"The doctor said I have to avoid certain foods now and just drink some porridge," said the assistant.
"Okay. Wait for me at the next stop. I'll go buy some food nearby. Shenpi likes to eat takeout from a nearby store." Greg said.
"okay."
The two got off at the next stop. The assistant stayed inside the station waiting, while Greg went to find something to eat nearby.
The station was quite empty at the time, and the assistant was looking around with some boredom. Then she noticed some white objects floating back and forth nearby.
"Evil thoughts." The assistant was no longer surprised by them.
Ever since she took a large bottle of medicine to increase her mental power on the ship, her mental power has exceeded the limit and she can detect the existence of evil thoughts.
The assistant calmly watched those evil thoughts. These evil thoughts were muddled and far less intelligent than those she had seen before.
After the assistant was stunned for a while, Greg came back with his shopping.
Greg followed his assistant's gaze and saw those evil thoughts as well.
"As a god, what do you think of them?" asked the assistant.
"Are you talking about those evil thoughts? Those who are ignorant and confused are not to be feared. But those who possess rationality may very likely rule over humanity in the end," said Greg.
"How...how is this possible?" The assistant was a little surprised. "Why do you think so?"
"Because of lifespan." Greg pushed his glasses up.
"The lifespan of evil thoughts is very long. As long as there are enough hosts, they will hardly die out naturally."
"In the past, evil thoughts lacked rationality, so the hosts they parasitized would die soon. Often, evil thoughts, unable to find a host, would starve to death."
"But when evil thoughts gain rationality, they won't adopt such a wasteful way of survival. They will coexist with their hosts and won't abandon them unless absolutely necessary. This greatly reduces the risk of them starving to death."
"As their lifespans get longer, they'll have more time to learn everything about humans. And as they learn more about humans, they'll definitely choose to integrate into the human group."
"And as their knowledge increases, the individual qualities of the parasitic humans will far surpass those of other humans."
"If it were a single evil thought with reason, it would be fine. Humans could still use some social rules to suppress its upward path. But they are a group."
"When their numbers are large enough, the rules of human society will no longer apply to them. They will unite and rise quickly to become the rulers of humanity."
"After their long reign, humans will be completely domesticated and reduced to their lambs. They will then be regarded as gods by humans. They will most likely become eternal rulers."
After listening to Greg's story, the assistant shuddered.
"Don't humans still have exorcists? They shouldn't sit idly by!" said the assistant.
"Yes, that's true. But from what I understand, it's still difficult for an exorcist to kill evil thoughts that possess rationality."
"They first have to force those evil thoughts to leave the host, which is difficult. Unless the exorcists kill the host directly, which is also a crime, not many exorcists would like to do it."
"The second point is that even if those evil thoughts leave the host, the exorcist can only choose to fight with a strategy that hurts the enemy by a thousand and hurts himself by eight hundred. However, this will greatly drain the exorcist's mental strength."
"How many exorcists would be willing to use this method to eliminate evil thoughts? After all, evil thoughts with rationality are a minority in this world."
"I think most exorcists wouldn't risk their careers to do something selfless. They'd rather deal with irrational evil thoughts. That way they can make money quickly and without any risk," Greg said.
"What if we can mass-produce exorcists? The group has researched a drug that's not on the market yet, but its effectiveness is unquestionable! It can enhance the user's mental strength! As long as we can mass-produce exorcists, then those intelligent evil thoughts shouldn't be a problem, right?" the assistant said seriously.
"Have you considered the cost? How much does the medicine cost?" Greg asked.
"I don't know that."
"You can estimate it."
"Well...about 100 yuan each?" said the assistant.
"So how much did you eat to get to where you are now?"
The assistant thought for a while and then said, "There should be five or six hundred."
Greg was stunned for a moment. "Wait a moment, I'll send a message and ask."
Greg took out his cell phone and sent a message to his cousin, who replied shortly afterwards.
Greg took a look and smiled. "That medicine is expected to be priced at one thousand per pill, but it costs over six hundred per pill."
"Huh?" The assistant was a little dumbfounded. This was much more expensive than she thought.
"Also, according to the research report, an average person with average qualifications would need at least a thousand pills to become an exorcist."
"You have good aptitude, so you didn't need much medicine to reach the standard of an exorcist."
The assistant's expression was unhappy. The cost issue was indeed difficult to resolve. However, she felt that if evil thoughts truly threatened human survival, the price of this drug would likely drop significantly.
"I believe that when the time comes, everyone will unite as one," said the assistant.
Greg smiled slightly and nodded without objecting.
Soon the next subway arrived and the two got on it.
……
ding dong~~
The doorbell of the villa rang. Mrs. Shenpi looked at the surveillance camera vigilantly. After seeing the person outside, she became excited.
She opened the door directly and hugged the assistant outside.
The assistant was startled, but when she saw Mrs. Shenpi, tears welled up in her eyes.
"Wow, I miss you so much, baby!" Mrs. Shenpi burst into tears.
"Hiss~ Madam...it hurts a little. I just had surgery." The assistant grimaced as he was hugged.
"Ah? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, let's go inside and talk."
After they returned to the villa, the two ladies began to reminisce about the past, while Greg took out various takeouts and placed them on the table.
He did not disturb the two ladies and went straight to the study.
The study door was closed at this time. After thinking for a moment, Greg returned to his Dio form, then reached out and knocked on the door.
After a while, the back door was opened, and the wife immediately showed a happy expression when she saw Dior.
"You're back! I thought you'd be gone a week! How wonderful!"
"Well, the business trip didn't go well, so I came back early. By the way, how is your novel going? I want to take a look." Dio said with a smile.
"Well... I've only written part of it, but I don't think it's very good. Please don't make fun of me..." the wife said nervously.
"Please let me see." Dio said.
"it is good……"
The wife led Dior to the computer and opened the previous document.
Dio began to read the contents of the novel.
The novel begins in a relatively conventional way, according to Dio.
The story is about an ordinary girl who was called to the office by a handsome president one day.
The president wants her to sign a contract, the content of which is rather bizarre.
Because the CEO's parents are constantly urging him to get married, he's planning to find a girlfriend to appease them. However, he doesn't really want to be in a relationship. So, he's planning a contract relationship, just to make it look good and fool his parents.
He chose the most ordinary girl in the company as his contract partner, so that he could ensure that he would never fall in love with this girl.
The girl was also attracted by the huge salary in the contract and signed it without hesitation.
After that, the president and the heroine had various interactions, and their feelings gradually heated up unknowingly.
The content ended here. Dio's expression was rather calm after reading it.
