The nuns who had been hiding in the four corners of the church disappeared out of thin air, and the six high-ranking holy envoys standing on either side of the pulpit did not show up at all.

Where exactly did these people go?

Roland couldn't guess.

But he could vaguely guess why Sister Ringing and the High Sacred Messenger had left the church temporarily, because this hall, which was originally shrouded in darkness, was now lit up with a faint light, and it was the "light of reason"!

The "light of reason" illuminates the pulpit and the madman on the throne. The old man in a black robe leaned against the throne in a languid posture, his wrinkled face pale and haggard in the light, his eyes drooping, as if dozing off.

This old man, who does not look good and is frail in his old body, has his left hand on his chest, and a trace of "light of reason" leaks from between his fingers, as if his heart is the "lamp of reason" that creates a contrasting atmosphere in the church.

The unexpected change overwhelmed the crowd, and the silence lasted for a long time, until it was broken by Higgs's faint sigh.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, how is that idiot in Hallmonx, why don't you dare to come and see me in person."

"Master Hallmonks doesn't want to see you, and he regrets that it wasn't you who was locked in the bottle in the first place." Colossa replied coldly.

Higgs smiled contemptuously: "Does that old fool still hate me?" It seems that I overestimated him, and he still hasn't seen his true nature, and he is a naïve guy until death. ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?" Roland interrupted him to laugh at Holmonx, "If I'm not mistaken, you seem to miss the part of your rational personality that you abandoned in the first place. ”

"The rational personality I threw up?" Higgs repeated Roland's questioning, and suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he had heard something very absurd.

"That's right, Higgs Holmonx's personality is split into two parts, one of which is more rational and the other is more emotional than rational, and you must have heard Holmonx say these things, and Holmonx must have told you that he himself is the part of the personality that is dominated by reason." The old man on the throne looked at Roland with a smile.

"Isn't it?" Roland observed the growing sarcasm at the corners of Higgs's lips, and vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"Holmonx made a very serious mistake in failing to recognize his own essence, when in fact he was the part of the personality that was dominated by emotion, and I, Higgs, was the part of personality where reason prevailed."

Higgs's bland words fell into the ears of Roland and the others, like a thunderbolt in the clear sky!

"It can't be!" Lyudmila said categorically.

"Why can't it be?" Higgs asked rhetorically without the slightest anger.

"If you are the embodiment of reason, how can you be so evil and cruel!" The female ranger asked loudly.

Higgs smiled, a look of disappointment in his eyes.

"When you say such things, you can see that you don't understand what 'reason' is, and reason is kindness and fraternity? Wrong, in fact, reason calculates the best one for itself from all possible options, and chooses it without hesitation, to put it bluntly, the essence of reason is selfishness! Higgs suddenly raised his voice, and declared to everyone in a solemn gesture: "A rational person must be selfish, if doing evil can bring more good and do not have to worry about punishment, of course a rational person will become evil and cruel, this is the principle of survival of the fittest, if you don't understand even such a simple truth, you are like the old fool of Holmonx, you don't know what kind of person you really are!" ”

"Ridiculous quibble!"

Lyudmila was dismissive of Higgs's tirade, but Roland couldn't help but gasp for a while.

He is a traveler from the earth, he knows a little bit about economics, of course he knows what a "rational person" is, of course he knows that "reason" and "selfishness" are originally two sides of the same coin, Higgs's words may sound crazy and absurd to others, but in his ears it is sober and logical, if this is not rational, where is there rationality in the world?

Looking at Holmens in turn, what can I gain by sacrificing everything and putting in countless hard work to protect those children who are not related to him? The kind of behavior that is not self-interested and deliberately benefits others is even more irrational than the extremely cold and selfish Higgs. Perhaps this also proves from another side that Higgs is the one who is really sober, and Holmonks, the kind-hearted old man, has actually been living in his own wishful thinking.

"This guy is still nagging endlessly, why isn't he going crazy?"

Anthony noticed that Higgs only had two blood-colored threads in his pupils, indicating that although he had symptoms of madness, he was not yet mindless, which was not a reasonable example as the leader of the fanatics.

"Why should I go crazy?" Higgs asked Anthony with a sneer.

Anthony was stunned for a moment, and replied naturally: "If you don't go crazy, how can you be the leader of the madmen?" ”

Higgs seemed to disdain to play this game of chewing words with him, and slowly removed the palm that covered his chest.

The light suddenly brightened, and a golden bell the size of a fist was exposed.

The bell with the emblem of the evil god hangs on Higgs's chest, but the bell is also shaped into a small "lamp of reason".

The golden bells emit a warm spiritual glow, and the strange and evil emblems on the bells are clearly visible.

The "Lamp of Reason" and the "Badge of a Maniac" are thus combined, giving the impression of the absurd.

Anthony was dumbfounded.

Now he understood why Higgs didn't go berserk, because the madman had always worn the "lamp of reason" close to his body. However, with solving a question, it also brings more mysteries:

"How can an evil god tolerate a rational person to be the leader of a fanatic sect!"

"My lord already has too many crazy believers, and if there are too many of them, they will devalue and be disgusting, and I swear to serve him with reason, how do you think my lord will feel about a follower as different as mine?" Higgs glanced at Anthony and said coldly: "One sentence is enough for the exchange between smart people, and it is in vain to say a hundred and a thousand words to a fool, whether you believe it or not, this is the case." ”

"Could it be that old fellow from Hallmonx, not only used us, but also deceived us......" Anthony patted his head, his eyes confused.
