Lucifer sacrificed too much for world peace

To qualify for admission, you need to submit an unpublished literary work that you have written. There is no limit to the genre, including short poems. If you can't come up with it for the time being, you need to answer a riddle. If you answer it correctly, you can enter.

After entering the venue, you can see a large number of never-released books, unlimited drinks, various snacks, and surprise gifts.

【What a loss of blood.

】Alarm clock review, 【This is not like you.

】 Lucifer: "...Don't worry, what I give them now can be doubled back later.

"Lucifer can't believe that outsiders don't know about his Apple store when they come to the Garden of Eden! Obviously, everyone will talk about his store when they mention steam engines recently, okay?! They must be worried, or wait and see, after all, His store is different from before. Everything is messy inside. I don’t know how his store became like this. It must be very confusing to look at it.

Now he is organizing an event to unify the theme, make the attributes of the store purer and easier to understand, and target certain groups to attract their attention.

This literary salon is just a large advertisement. As long as you write something by yourself, you don’t even need to use a pen, just use your brain to solve a puzzle, you can participate in this social model that you have never heard of before, and you can eat and drink for free— —No, they are enjoying the kindness of the organizers. After all, this is no different from charity. They are not spending money to buy delicious food. Those who hesitated before may also be ready to make a move.

The alarm clock drew inferences from one example: [Are you going to open a science salon if you have the chance? "No, they have to do it themselves. I need to put out advertisements now, and literature is more suitable."

” Lucifer refused.

Literature has the characteristic of being easier to spread, especially in this world where fictional literature is weak. This salon should be able to achieve good advertising effects.

“When we’re done, people ask, ‘What were you talking about in the salon?’. In terms of literature, you can say, ‘I heard everyone tell a lot of stories, and I’ll tell them to you too. Everyone will know it soon, but there is nothing you can do about science. If you don’t say whether you should do it or not, just ask the question, and the people who ask it may not be interested... Therefore, from the perspective of communication, it is more efficient to hold a literary salon.

Lucifer sighed: "And I mainly want to change their minds. Literature is much better than a lightning steam engine in this regard."

” Alarm clock: […makes sense.

】As Lucifer expected, everyone was very receptive to this literary salon without any resistance.

In their view, this is actually a variant of a charity banquet, which is more convenient for people who share a common language to gather.

So what if the food and drink inside are a little too delicious? This is all the organizer's intention. There is no need to worry about divine punishment. Everyone just needs to be grateful.

Even if Lucifer doesn't hand out leaflets, everyone will help promote things like a charity banquet. What's more, this "Literary Salon" has novel requirements. Everyone is very interested in the riddle. In addition, the Apple Store has recently It was already a hot topic, but after only one day, there was no one in Eden who didn't know that the Apple store would hold a literary salon the next day. The popularity of the topic even surpassed the steam power that could easily take them to other places.

So, early the next morning, Lucifer, who didn't need to sleep, opened the door and wrote a riddle on the bulletin board at the door.

This is the famous Sphinx riddle originating from the earth, but has never appeared in this world: [What animal has four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening? The more legs it has, the weaker it becomes? 】This riddle is confusing at first glance.

Common sense tells everyone that there is no such animal in the world, but if this is a riddle, the meaning is different. It may be a metaphor.

Riddles are one of the few games in this world that are both interesting and do not lead to being accused of being a waste of time. This is because it is an indispensable classic plot in heroic legends. Everyone is interested in riddles, so Lucifer wrote this riddle. Word spread quickly through the first person to see it.

"Have you guessed it?" "No, what about you?" "Neither have I, but someone seems to have guessed it..." "Don't tell me the answer even if you guessed it, I have to think about it myself!" Similar conversations occur in different places in the Garden of Eden. It was staged locally, and the topic that was already somewhat hot seemed to be filled with new fuel, and the popularity suddenly reached a new level.

Alexandre Dumas originally came with his new work, but when he saw the riddle at the door, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​exchanging the work for admission and decided to try to solve the riddle first. If he couldn't solve it, he would use his own work! There were many people who had the same idea as her. For a while, the Apple store was empty, but there were people outside. They all wanted to see the board with the puzzle written on it. Lucifer couldn't understand this move. It was just an ordinary board. Can't you just ask anyone who knows the content of the riddle? There's no need to see it with your own eyes, right? [Because this is the most ancient sage-like trial you have done so far...] Hearing Lucifer's question, the alarm clock couldn't help complaining: [The Go backgammon was pretty decent at the beginning, but it got weirder and weirder later on. The excuses I make are becoming more and more perfunctory... People in Paradise are like frogs boiled in warm water. It is still very subtle to outsiders, but now it is better. Riddles are the most classic mode of testing heroes, and you are a great sage recognized by the church, so you should be regarded as a star chaser. Come and see your handwritten inscription.

】Although there are too many tricks to talk about, chasing stars can indeed explain all incomprehensible behaviors, and Lucifer will no longer be obsessed with the fact that the sun is blocked.

When you solve riddles, you will often find out that this is what it is. It is obviously very simple, but when you can't find the idea, you can't figure it out no matter what.

Lucifer was already prepared. If no one solved the riddle after half an hour, he would discuss with Alexandre Dumas to come in quickly by relying on the work, lest those who originally wanted to rely on the work would be embarrassed not to solve the riddle after seeing this posture.

Fortunately, Lucifer didn't need to intervene this time. A handsome young man walked in and said to Lucifer, who was leaning on the rocking chair and reading a book: "I solved the mystery.

Lucifer raised his head and looked at him: "Let's talk about it."

""The answer is-" The beautiful young man's confident expression suddenly froze, and his eyes looking at Lucifer became hesitant and excited, "...I'm sorry, but have you been to Avalon before? " Lucifer was a little confused, but also alert: "No.

Have you seen me before? "...You look so much like the person in a portrait drawn by my ancestors."

"The author has something to say: More updates! This time he is a painter () or it cannot simply be said to be a painter... Chapter 4 and 2: Leonardo da Vinci Lucifer has lost his memory, and now he feels even more suspenseful, knocking in his heart Alarm clock.

"What's going on? Have I been to Avalon?" The alarm clock didn't know everything. At first, its strategizing posture became more and more harmonious as time went by: [You didn't tell me, but There is no human being who looks like you.

】…Then isn’t this the same as the affirmative answer! Because he hadn't seen the portrait, Lucifer wasn't sure what the situation was on it. He didn't want to expose himself stupidly, so he tested the other person nonchalantly: "When was the portrait of your ancestor from? How old do you think I am?" Beautiful young man Probably because he thought this was reasonable, his excited expression gradually calmed down, but his eyes were still fiery when he looked at him: "I don't know how long the portrait is, but it must have been there for hundreds of years!" "The person painted above looks like me?" Lucifer asked casually, using the word 'person' very deliberately to continue testing.
