What is death? What is life?

Over the years, Lina has been thinking about this issue, seriously thinking about it as a pastor in front of a god of life.

The goddess of earth Deniya, also known as the God of Love and the Mother of the Earth, is the God of Earth. As the God of Earth, he holds the authority of part of life. He belongs to the God of Life. He uses his body to nurture various plants and maintains the vitality of the world. As the pastor of the God of Love, Lina has been faithful in the goddess like other pastors for many years, serving the goddess with all her heart, and saving lives with the magical arts given by the gods.

The love for the goddess made Lina's body and mind closer to the goddess, and also made Lina's questions more and more serious, making her constantly think about what life is? As the back of life, what is death?

The earth nurtures life, and everything gains vitality from the earth, which is true. However, the earth also tolerate death. The dust returns to dust, the earth returns to the earth, and everything will eventually return to the earth. If this is true, then who is in charge of the authority of death in the earth?

Only the most devout pastor of faith can retain such questions on the basis of unwavering faith, not questioning the gods, not doubting faith, but just questions about the unknown. Questions have always troubled Lina. Sometimes it seems that she understands something, but when she thinks about it carefully, she doesn't understand anything.

This situation continued until the day before, in front of the food stall at the Harvest Festival, Lina met the little girl with a dog.

"The Lord Wei Lunsen of the God of Light is also the God of Darkness Sith."

Why? Why are two gods who are obviously completely opposite, the same person?

Yes, there is darkness only when there is light, and there is light only when there is darkness. Light and darkness are two sides of the coin. It is one and twins. The God of Light is also the God of Darkness, which is correct. However, when the girl mentioned this, what exactly did she want to explain?

Lina was thinking all night long, and as soon as the sky was dawn, she got up and pulled Panis down into the cellar. Even though she advanced in the rock cracks, Lina's mind still did not stop thinking. She had a premonition that she was facing the most critical step. Once she walked over, she would face a brand new world.

Along the way, until you face danger, give your body to your friends, and focus your mind on thinking. Long-term faith and years of accumulation finally have a qualitative change at this moment.

"Life and death are actually that simple."

"Life is born on the earth and will eventually usher in death. Death returns to the earth and will eventually give birth to new life."

"For the earth, life and death are a circle, and life and death are just two stages in a process."

"So, the goddess of earth holds both life and death."

"Indeed, as long as you pray devoutly to the gods without doubt, you can get guidance from the gods and recognize them."

"But just like the little girl said, even if someone tells her a thousand times and ten thousand times, and she can't figure it out, how could she pray to the gods without doubt?"

"Sure enough, the little girl is right. Only those who have reached this point can understand such knowledge. For those who have not reached this point, saying such words is just heresy."

At the most critical moment, under heavy pressure, Lina finally figured out everything, finally got the response from the gods, accepted the death-like magic technique given by the gods, and became the only pastor in the contemporary earth goddess church who has understood the relationship between life and death and truly believed in all the priests of the God of Earth.

So, in the face of crisis, Lina released the new magic that was given, the Elegy of Death.

Lina's hands were raised high, although her fair skin was covered with large patches of blue and purple ecchymns, and although her left arm was twisted abnormally, Lina still held back the pain and raised her arms, clenched her fists on her head, and the dark halo condensed on her fists, exuding an ominous momentum.

"In the holy name of Deniya, the god of death, the evil spirit of death, use your evil sight to strike the shadow of the enemy." With Lina's loud prayer, energy fluctuations that cannot be seen by the naked eye emanate from her raised hands. Outside the gate, a pitch-black aperture appeared around each monster. The black aperture continued to rotate around the monsters, like an invisible shackle. No matter how the monsters moved, they could not get rid of the surroundings of the light.

Being entangled with a black aperture does not seem to be a comfortable experience. All the monsters, including the spiders on the roof and the crypt worms, began to get restless, and their offensive against the door became even more fierce. But Panis, who was standing in front of Lina and defending at the door, knew that this was a good phenomenon. If the monsters still maintained their previous actions, it was only a matter of time before they were exhausted. Now the behavior of the monsters has changed, which is a sign of a better situation.

"This is the elegy of death." Lina said, still holding her hands up, "The gift you gave me will give me half of the gifts if we win."

"What kind of favor?" Panis asked inexplicably in defense.

"That little girl in white, the one with the dog." Lina said: "It was her words that inspired me."

"Oh, they didn't expect that they could do it." Panis nodded.

"Haha, you finally admit that you know them." Lina said with a smile: "This is a new magical art given by the goddess. It can attack all targets that I have locked into enemies and directly damage their physical strength, mental strength and vitality. Although the damage ability is not high, if you occupy the advantage of the terrain like now, you can sooner or later use the opponent to death. Moreover, while this magical art can also convert it into my own magic while hitting their physical strength, mental strength and vitality. Unfortunately, the conversion amount of each target is very small, and it requires a certain number of enemies to earn it back, just like now."

After saying that, the black light dissipated around Lina's hands, clenched her fists, and the aperture around the monsters also disappeared.

"More than twenty enemies, in one minute, can recover twice the amount of magic required." Lina still raised her hands and said loudly: "Then, it's the Ode to Life."

The hands clenched in the air were covered with white light again, and the light became brighter and brighter. Large clusters of light erupted from the light of the hands, flew to the high place, and then fell like raindrops.

"In the holy name of Deniya, the god of love, the Holy Spirit of life, wash the body and mind of believers with your holy light." In Lina's loud prayer, a large number of holy light spots slowly fell and sprinkled on Lina and Pannis. The purple ecchymns on Lina's body disappeared rapidly and could be seen by the naked eye, and the twisted joints everywhere also returned to their original form at extremely fast speed under the guidance of invisible power. Pannis in front found that under the comfort of the light spots, the physical strength consumed in the battle was recovered quickly, and the fatigue of the body disappeared significantly, and almost quickly returned to the state before the battle began.

"This is an ode to life, and it is also a magical art newly given by the goddess." Lina's arm was still on her head: "Replying to the friendly targets I have locked on a large scale can be healed and replenished physical strength. However, the more targets, the more scattered, the weaker the effect, and it cannot heal fatal damage. Moreover, it consumes two-thirds of my magic power at one time. Of course, for me now, when there are a large number of enemies, the magic power is infinite, so the next one is the Elegy of Death."

The pitch-black light flashed again, and the black aperture once again entangled around the monsters. This time, the monsters felt the threat, and their restlessness became even more serious, almost returning to the original chaotic scene.

"You will block them. If you persist for a while, they will always be able to consume their energy to death." Lina maintained her spell casting posture and stood in place without moving: "We will definitely win, and we will never lose to a group of birds and beasts."

"I believe." Panis nodded, looked down at the part of his chest and sighed softly, but a faint warm smile appeared on his mouth.

The number of monsters has not decreased. After understanding Lina's magical characteristics, even if Panis has the chance, in order to maintain the number of enemies on the battlefield, he dared not easily kill the weaker monsters. Fortunately, after the recovery of the Ode to Life, Panis's physical strength has been restored to most of his strength and his muscle fatigue has been relieved. Even if he falls into a protracted war again, it will not have much impact.

For a time, the battle situation reached a balance between offense and defense, and developed towards a long-term war of attrition. The only difference is that one side can release the replies of the hymn of life again at any time, while the other side is depleted by the elegy of death for a long time, and the balance of the battlefield gradually tilts towards Panis and Lina.

Just when Panis felt like this was slowly grinding and the final victory was only a matter of time, the situation suddenly changed.

Change is developing towards the better.

At first, Panis discovered that several monsters had become slow and awkward. If you look closely, you can see that some lumps were bulging in the limbs or other parts of the body of these monsters. After a few minutes of fighting, similar situations occurred on all monsters, and the lumps were gradually increasing. In a few minutes, the weak monsters were already lying on the ground and unable to stand up. Even the most powerful monsters became extremely difficult to move. Each monster was covered with swollen granulation, and some granulations had broken on their own, and fishy pus and blood were flowing out.

Finally, one of the weak monsters let out a whine, stopping their breathing, and the lives of the monsters ended one after another, and died quickly one after another. However, death is not the end. Even if the monsters are dead, the granules on their bodies are still slowly increasing and expanding. Grainingly, all the bodies of all the monsters are covered with granules. It can even be said that the bodies of all the monsters have completely turned into an irregular swollen object covered with granules. The granulus on the surface is still squirming and expanding, entangling with each other, getting bigger and bigger.

Slowly, the crazy wriggling granulation seemed to have exhausted the nutrients, stopped self-devouring and expanding, and began to slowly collapse inward, slowly shrink, and eventually turned into a stinking blood. Only the corpse of the other half of the monster that had been killed before was still soaked in the dirty blood, proving that the previous battle between the two was not an illusion.

"Disgusting, it's so disgusting." Lina retred a few times and said reluctantly: "What happened? How did these monsters become like this?"

"I don't know, I can't understand at all." Panis shook his head: "However, I guess the goblins failed to transform them."

Lina suddenly shivered, looked at the colors on her body, and said in a dry tone: "I have a lot of blood on my body, and it won't become like them..."

Panis pointed to the completely normal corpses of monsters on the ground: "It seems that this kind of change will not occur if the dead ones are not. Don't worry."
