Seizing the BOSS Template at the Start

Chapter 662: Chapter 334: This Is My World, and Also My Everything

Baiyi responded softly, ”You won’t die, I promise.”

Eric’s murky gaze still showed an unintended weariness: ”As long as there’s hope, it’s enough. As for me, you don’t need to worry.”

Baiyi was silent for a moment: ”What if I insist?”

Eric’s steps paused slightly; over the years, the effects of the Source of Life had already worn off, and his vitality had declined to an extreme.

The once proud and upright Level 77 Demon Swordsman City Lord now had a slightly bent waist.

He quietly watched Baiyi, seemingly recalling their first meeting eleven years ago.

Eric slowly shook his head and continued to walk through this iron city, surrounded by virtual projections and lively advertisements.

Somewhat relieved: ”I can’t resist, but I’m tired.”

Baiyi’s steps paused slightly, not voicing his opinion on this, feeling grateful to Eric.

He could also sense that Eric’s time was running out.

When his level rises a bit more, Eric might be gone after a solitary retreat.

So, at certain times, Baiyi wouldn’t let him die.

All this talk about being tired, seeing through everything, wanting to die, it’s all nonsense.

It’s just that the weariness of the Dark Age is here now.

If Baiyi became a Great Divine Power, able to easily grant eternal life, creating the peaceful world that their generation longed for.

Wouldn’t these elderly people still want to live?

So now those philosophical words, just listen to them.

”Capitalist!”

A pleasant female voice sounded, and Baiyi turned around to see the gradually maturing Elf, still so youthful.

The resentment of the working class on her face had significantly diminished.

The entire Elf looked much more cheerful, full of vitality.

”Why are you back?” Baiyi was a bit surprised, although in the past few days many of those geniuses who went to All Heavens for training returned, he thought Aileen was not keen on returning to Dongwu City.

Aileen clenched her fist and sensed Baiyi’s aura, the eagerness and excitement in her eyes gradually fading: ”Uh, I missed Luoning, yeah, that’s it.”

Baiyi watched her actions, somewhat speechless.

Spiritual Power fluctuated slightly.

Smack~

Ouch~

Aileen (つ﹁`′﹁): ”Damn capitalist, why are you hitting an Elf again? I could report you, you know?”

”You can try?” Baiyi raised an eyebrow: ”You still owe me...”

”Boss brother~”

”Scram, scram, scram!”

”Alrighty, goodbye, capitalist....”

Watching Aileen’s retreating figure, Eric was a bit sentimental: ”She hasn’t changed at all.”

”This Elf is just like that.” Baiyi felt a bit sentimental: ”But now she can help extend your life. A Curse Doctor who can control themselves is the best doctor in the world, bar none.”

Eric sighed: ”I really don’t need it.”

He looked up at the sky: ”Our era has passed, the powers we should have controlled we have, the scenery we should have seen we have seen. It’s just good to accompany you in the last few years, no need to force anything.”

”Mmm, mmm, mmm...”

Baiyi perfunctorily nodded, gradually surpassing Eric: ”Then let the principal sigh to himself, I’ll go see Mr. Heidinger, maybe he wants to live a bit longer?”

Eric: ....

He watched Baiyi’s departing figure with some helplessness, shook his head, sighed, his gaze full of reminiscence at the surroundings.

Everything has changed, he misses it, but if it changes for the better, there’s no need to miss it, at most it’s a memorial.

After Baiyi came out of the Magic Academy, he let out a long breath, Heidinger’s body was still quite good.

Mages don’t need much vitality, his lifespan is still long.

Nothing will likely happen in three hundred years.

It’s just that sometimes talent is enough to limit everything, Heidinger is now quite obsessed with Arcane Magic, which is very similar to Magic, and most of them are actually interchangeable.

In three hundred years, he has confidence to reach the Legendary Domain, the key is the transformation of Arcane Magic into Magic Knowledge.

Baiyi visited other elders, don’t be fooled by those scholars, even though they are elderly, having broken through to Extraordinary, they are still quite young.

There is one who is confirmed to die in the coming years, but their mindset is much like Eric’s, a facade of enlightenment yet full of hope.

Actually, Baiyi can understand some of their mentality, it’s just still about worrying.

Now thriving, the trend seems to be developing in a positive direction, if they die now, they won’t have to think about what happens after the Divine Descent.

Their last bit of life heads towards hope, rather than dying in despair.

Though it’s somewhat self-deceptive, they are old and unable to change anything.

Besides Eric, Baiyi doesn’t want to stop their demise.

Eric helped Baiyi in the past, so even if he doesn’t want to, Baiyi will make him live.

The others....

Respecting others’ destinies is sometimes a virtue too.

Back at the City Lord’s Mansion, after teasing the Elf a bit more, Baiyi once again threw himself into the tense and exciting construction work.

The Celestial City project had reached the point where special skill points need to be used.

Killing a Divine Envoy earned one skill point, becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster earned another skill point.

Plus the original four, for a total of six skill points, greatly accelerating Baiyi’s construction of the Celestial City.

Among them, Baiyi developed a robot analogous to the Star Core F Series, but more inclined towards auxiliary functions.

This type of robot was mainly created to aid construction, as well as assist alchemists in their work.
