I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

The upper seven floors and the lower seven floors of Tower No. 9 have never been allowed to be entered casually. They appear to be very mysterious and often attract discussions among the executioners.

Judging from what Lloyd overheard, some people think that these areas are treasure troves for storing monster organs, and they smell of preservatives; others think that they must be eerie and bloody dungeons with piles of bones and severed limbs.

Probably no one would have thought that the seven floors above ground are actually decorated like a luxury hotel...

Gold-plated candlesticks and landscape paintings were hung on the left and right walls. Green plants, vases and other decorations were symmetrically placed on the ground. Underfoot was a soft red carpet, which made it appear magnificent, comfortable and comfortable.

There are not many rooms here, but each one is exquisite and elegant, spacious and bright, with complete facilities, and even has a big soft bed big enough for three people to roll around.

Lloyd couldn't help but asked in surprise:

"I actually want to complete [Enlightenment] in a place like this? Isn't it a bit too luxurious?"

Wei Ya shook her head and explained:

"Every [transcendence] is not an easy thing, especially the first time you are facing now. It has blocked the threshold of countless people, so the presiding judge believes that in this kind of favorable environment, Helps relax and improve success rate.”

With that said, she led Lloyd into the room, motioned for him to sit down on the sofa, and continued to add:

"There are drinks and food in the cabinet, you can take whatever you want, but I suggest not to drink too much."

As she spoke, she lit a pot of incense in the corner of the room, then played with a vinyl record player nearby, playing a soothing and melodious melody, and then tore off several seals on the floor and walls, revealing pattern below.

These are all components of the [Ritual of Enlightenment].

Lloyd just watched her busy around the room, her legs in black silk boots passing back and forth in front of his eyes. He felt that the atmosphere had become weird, and he felt an inexplicable itch in his heart, and he wanted to think about it in his mind.

Fortunately, he shook his head vigorously and threw those inappropriate thoughts out of his mind.

As a result, the tension lingering in his heart was relieved a lot.

Not long after, Wei Ya pushed a huge floor-to-ceiling mirror to Lloyd, letting his figure be reflected in the mirror, then lit two incense candles and placed them on either side of the mirror. Finally, she took out a music box and tightened the clockwork. Put it behind the mirror.

The music box made a soft tinkling sound, but it could not form a melody, as if it was broken.

"You should have read the notes of the presiding judge. I don't need to remind you of the relevant precautions. There is no need to worry that your privacy will be leaked. Even the saint cannot spy on the process of this ceremony...

Well, I'll leave first. May the bright light bring you good luck. "

Wei Ya said, gave Lloyd an encouraging look, then left the room, locking him in alone.

"Huh... let's get started."

Lloyd let out a long sigh of relief, rubbed his face vigorously, then looked up at the floor-length mirror in front of him, listening carefully to the weird melody coming from the music box.

[Veto] The first [transcendence] of the system requires [vetoing] a 'past self' under the influence of a specific ritual, in order to complete the initial [enlightenment]

It sounds mysterious, but the specific operation is actually very simple. It is to complete the cutting with a 'past self' in this room.

You can be the 'lazy self', you can be the 'proud self', of course you can also choose the 'excellent self', the 'happy self'.

It's not that the relevant memories are forgotten, but it's more like a change of heart, a change of heart, or self-reflection, in order to complete the first [transcendence]

The difficulty is that it is not just to say nice things like 'never be lazy again' or 'never update' next time, but to conduct a thorough review deep in the consciousness. [Reject] That’s fine.

Of course, if [Veto] loses the 'fishing self', it does not necessarily mean that you can become the 'hard-working self'...

Taking into account the various natures of human beings, the presiding judge suggested in his notes not to set general or unrealistic goals.

For example, a 'mediocre self' or a 'poor self' are definitely not problems that can be solved in one [enlightenment]. If you aim at such a self, you are bound to fail.

It is best to choose a smaller target and be more pragmatic, so as to increase the success rate.

So Lloyd thought about which 'self' he wanted to cut with last night.

Along with the strange melody of the music box, he felt that his consciousness began to become a little blurry, and some unbearable past events emerged in his mind one by one, beginning to give him strength.

As the candlelight on both sides of the floor-length mirror in front of him swayed, the figure reflected in it began to blur and change, gradually switching to a weird first-person perspective, as if he had entered another person's body.

People in this world may feel nervous and uncomfortable about this scene, but Lloyd is particularly familiar and nostalgic. He often entered this perspective and practiced human body tracing in places like the Lost City and Purgatory Town.

It’s just that what is reflected in the mirror is not the birth points he is familiar with, but...

His wife?

Then, a canine bark sounded in his ears:

"Hey! Okay! I've shipped it! I've shipped it!"

Then came another seal scream:

"How do you know I shipped the goods in ten companies?"

The screen turned again, and I heard a speech that made people bow their heads:

"Hehehe~ My wife looks so good when she draws the knife! prpr!"

When Lloyd saw this scene in reality, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, feeling the joy from the heart.

But the next second, the painting style suddenly changed. The person in the mirror was looking at the depleted bank card balance and was having trouble.

"Damn it! The ship has sunk. We can only make money now. We must not let my wife stay in the cold pool!"

"Alas...I can only eat instant noodles this month..."

"Damn, the little guarantee is crooked again, don't care, it's for the sake of the new wife, krypton!"

"My money has not disappeared, it has just been replaced by a brand new wife who continues to accompany me."

Lloyd looked at these familiar scenes and his familiar self with mixed feelings in his heart.

This is the version of himself he wants to [veto].

Although these memories were somewhat unbearable, he did not escape, but continued to watch, and his mood was relatively stable.

Until the scene in the mirror changes. The self in the mirror is editing text messages on the mobile phone:

"Mom, I have no money..."

Lloyd's eyes suddenly became sore, as if nails had been driven into him.

Thanks to Zheng Haolin for the small change
