The Ordinary Me is Worshipped as a Deity by the Extraordinary Them-Chapter 55 - Raven
Su Li’s peaceful daily life was disrupted by yet another attack on Jisuo Town.
Unlike the incident with Na’an, which everyone saw as having a reason, the raven’s attack seemed inexplicable to many.
“Was it a crow?”
“Crows can’t be anything good.”
“And they’re monster beasts.”
“How disgusting, what did we do to always be targeted by monster beasts?”
These kinds of words were prevalent in the mouths of the native residents of Jisuo Town.
The town, which had been relatively well repaired by Euphia and her people not long ago, had once again become a ruin.
Egbert’s battle with the raven caused mountains to crumble and the earth to shake.
And during the battle, with all the intended offensive output forced to become support, Egbert’s understanding of the characteristics of light elements at one point allowed him to unleash a destructive power that could be described as akin to a human-shaped self-propelled nuclear/missile.
The lake originally adjacent to the battle site was once expanded into a river, the edges of which were hazy and difficult to see clearly.
The densely forested large trees in the forest also sank into the water, waiting for an unknown number of days to fully become the habitat of aquatic creatures.
In Jisuo Town, it’s easy to imagine that the buildings, under the aftershock of such a level of battle, didn’t even leave a single intact corpse.
Sadina City.
“The Level 9 monster beast incident has been resolved, so that crazy Egbert will come back, right?” Lan Zhe clicked his tongue.
Su Li nodded, “That’s no different from going on an outside mission, when the task is completed outside, he will naturally come back.”
“That’s right.” Lan Zhe responded perfunctorily, his main thought being that he hopes that Egbert guy never comes back.
Just by observing how Egbert and Su Li interact, one can see that even if Egbert doesn’t deliberately try to attract Su Li’s attention, his personal behavior will constantly draw Su Li’s attention.
Given that Su Li’s attention cannot be focused on just one person, the sudden appearance of another attention-grabbing big head…
Lan Zhe thought about finding an opportunity. He still needs to collaborate with Roy to attack Egbert.
Afterwards, he can also tell Egbert the information of [Su Li trusts Roy very much], and then team up with the former Son of Light to also beat up Roy.
As long as his thoughts don’t slip, two rounds of beating would not be too much.
As for others judging that Egbert is too clingy, Su Li himself doesn’t give an opinion.
Although he knows Egbert is sick, in this case, if he doesn’t give him more attention, Su Li feels that one day he will fall ill and attack himself.
Although this state of being sick has always been there.
But still, it’s best not to aggravate it further.
Definitely not because Su Li hasn’t found a suitable mental hospital that can control Egbert yet.
Although if Su Li builds a mental hospital in his name, there might still be that possibility. But unfortunately, Su Li won’t do that kind of thankless task.
In the following few days of vacation, there was a constant flow of information from Jisuo Town.
The injured mercenaries who fought against the monster beast were gradually sent back to Sadina City.
Just as that foul-mouthed curly-haired teacher had imagined, these days, there were more and more funerals in Sadina City.
Dying in battle is not terrible, and defending with one’s body can be called courageous, but being injured by the aftermath of the battle, resulting in being directly crushed to death by the buildings…
This is something that just thinking about it will make people feel heartbroken.
Su Li also became more silent due to the environmental reasons within the city.
Compared to the usual daily calm, the heaviness of these past few days has become increasingly evident.
The adults in the small building, no matter how anxious they feel about Su Li’s such performance, also understand that they cannot change Su Li’s thoughts through their own language or actions.
When it comes to Su Li, in the past, they could express their concern for him in different ways due to their individual personalities. But since they learned about “Su Li’s past”, when facing him, their states have all become: Su Li’s own adjustment ability may be more convenient than their superfluous comforts.
This “convenient” state lasted for a long time, even until the end of the vacation and the resumption of classes.
And eventually, this so-called convenience was also broken.
“You seem to be pondering something.” Qi had been thinking about his future in these vacation days.
But the result he got was only more confusion.
Even if a young person is confused, when he finds that the people he cares about are more troubled than himself, he will temporarily abandon his own state of confusion.
And when facing this question, Su Li did not give an evasive response, but directly replied, “I can understand the inevitable conflict between humans and monster beasts due to their race.”
This is a battle born out of survival.
Mercenaries earn money from the bodies of monster beasts, and monster beasts rely on eating humans to improve their strength. These are all shortcuts to a better life.
Although cruel, Su Li’s comprehension ability can also support him to forcibly understand, even if he doesn’t want to accept it.
“It’s just that I don’t quite understand why intelligent higher-level monster beasts would still have such obvious conflicts with humans. And what the source of this conflict is, and also about Cy…”
“No, there is no ‘also’.”
Su Li just now had a momentary thought of the story of Cyril’s ancestor, but out of respect for others’ privacy, he quickly shut his mouth.
Yet in a situation where humans and monster beasts can fall in love, it should have proven that the gap between intelligent beings does not have a natural racial barrier.
But the reality is that Jisuo Town has collapsed for the second time, and Sadina City has fallen into a state of decline.
During those vacation days, Su Li read a lot of books related to this world.
Whether it’s gossip, history, or contemporary social environment records, it can be said that he has gained a deeper understanding of this world.
Unfortunately, the more he understands, the more his cognition is forcibly turned towards incomprehension… but choosing to respect.
This is another world.
If you see the world as a honeycomb, then the worlds are probably just neighboring relationships.
Therefore, rather than saying he crossed into another world, it would be more accurate to say he changed to a country with a completely different social environment, lifestyle, and interpersonal expression from before.
The discomfort arising from this has always been there, especially after knowing that he can never go back.
“From a conspiracy theory perspective, the top-tier monster beasts and humans with the most powerful abilities are like human-shaped self-propelled nuclear/weapons… You don’t need to know what nuclear/weapons are, you just need to know that they are existences with enormous destructive power.”

“This kind of existence should often be used as a deterrent. The formal confrontation and exchange of blows between powerful weapons, can only make me think that this world, this era, may have reached the stage where war is needed to open up new possibilities.”
“Looking back on human history, there seems to be such a phenomenon, when the status quo has not changed for a long time, when development enters a slow stagnation, there usually occurs a scene like a small climax in a novel, a war.”
“All decline, all decay, massive human deaths. The existing pattern changes, the existing pattern stabilizes again, post-disaster reconstruction, the subsequent rise, and the large-scale awakening of the era… until another cycle appears.”
Human history seems to be a development of ups and downs, rising and falling again.
And the battles between human-shaped nuclear/weapons, are they really just occasional tests of strength between the strong?
This is still an era of feudal dregs and theocracy.
Monster beasts and humans are also innately in the category of enemies.
Thinking outside the box, perhaps the so-called Gods of Light and Darkness in the past were the two existences that the monster beast faction had to force humans to worship after defeating the human faction?
Although the possibility of this is less than 1%.
Su Li’s subsequent words directly made the Qi, who had just tried to ponder the relationship between humans and monster beasts, completely give up.
Incomprehensible, every word separately is understandable, but put together, not a single sentence is understandable.
Yet despite this, Qi could still feel that the slightly furrowed brow of Su Li was in deep thought about so-called major issues.
Awestruck.
And Su Li, after seeing Qi’s bewildered expression, chuckled lightly, and his expression quickly returned to calmness as he said, “Don’t take my words too seriously, they’re just irrelevant associations.”
Qi nodded dazedly, and before the footsteps of the curly-haired teacher appeared in the hallway and entered the classroom, Qi gave Su Li a sunny smile that was not particularly profound.
He said, “Although I don’t know what happened, but Su Li is indeed feeling sad for all those who have suffered unfair treatment, right?”
Qi had more to say, but after Teacher Haiya came in, he swallowed it back into his stomach.
For those who can feel indignant for others, no matter what they are ultimately thinking, the bystanders only need to know that someone as gentle as him will not create anything bad.
After the afternoon classes ended, Qi took the time to tell the silent Cyril sitting in the back row by the window about this matter.
Cyril was silent for a long time before forcing a smile and saying, “It’s just that too many things have been happening recently, don’t worry too much.”
However, Cyril was thinking in his heart…
He has been left behind by Su Li.
They can’t keep up, and currently no one can keep up with Su Li’s way of thinking.
The world in his eyes is too clear and vivid.
Su Li, who had tidied up his seat and was ready to go home, waved to Cyril, who should have been on duty today but used wind elements to quickly clean the entire classroom.
“Let’s go back. Eg’s letter to Lan Zhe said he’ll arrive tonight.”
Cyril took quick steps to catch up, leaving the oblivious Qi behind.
On the way home, the two children’s silhouettes, with their shadows stretched long by the setting sun, were just as silent.
This was different from the usual chatty scene, with Cyril not knowing what to say, and Su Li afraid that if he opened his mouth, he would instill a lot of gloomy and corrupting thoughts in the child.
After all, when there is no need to be a corporate slave and there is little to learn, the overly indulgent thinking must have a destination.
And this destination has been defined by Su Li as analyzing, no, rather, speculating on the essence of this world.
Putting the game planner’s dignity on the line, whether NPC or player, they should all act according to the GM’s rules!
“Caw—aah—”
A strange cawing sound rang out, and as Su Li was still guessing all kinds of messy things, he looked up to see a completely black bird standing on the top of the wall, and the last rays of the setting sun were shining on its broken wing bones.
