Therefore, Rita, who had been suppressing the pain in her heart, was somewhat dissatisfied with her brother's act of "abandoning everyone".
But now, when she once again hugged the person who was so important to her, all the thoughts that Rita had once held in her heart had disappeared.
Perhaps it was impulsive for Lin Yu to go to the imaginary space alone to solve the cocoon of the end, but now...
——After everything is over, is it necessary for her to say those unnecessary words to her brother who chose to bear the pressure alone in order to protect everyone?
"Okay, that's enough for today. After all, everyone is waiting for you now."
After taking the initiative to break free from Lin Yu's arms reluctantly, Rita took Lin Yu's hand and whispered to Lin Yu.
"Everyone in Tianming now knows that you have returned from the moon."
"Although no one wants to disturb you, I feel..."
"——If it were you, you would probably want to meet everyone first."
"Yeah, yes, sister still understands me."
After letting out a breath, Lin Yu said to the woman in front of him.
"I guess, sister, you should have gathered everyone together."
"I do have something I want to say to you all, and now..."
"——In order not to keep everyone waiting, we should set off now."
.
A few minutes later, at the Destiny Headquarters
At the speech square where Lin Yu was holding the coronation ceremony, most of the members of the Tianming headquarters came here.
During these three years, although most of the senior leaders of Tianming tacitly did not mention this matter, the sudden disappearance of Tianming Bishop Lin Yu still made some people who were not aware of the situation feel uneasy.
It was just because the members of the Ruler Brigade who knew about Lin Yu’s last action at that time all chose to remain silent after knowing Lin Yu’s action.
After all, many things become more confusing the more they are explained. Instead of everyone constantly giving various slightly different explanations, they might as well just choose to shut up.
It’s better not to say anything, at least this way they can ensure that their actions will not lead to more serious consequences.
However, in this atmosphere, uneasiness is gradually spreading.
If Honkai wasn't really about to happen, the uneasiness in the hearts of all the members of Satori might have become even more serious.
Because of this, when everyone saw Lin Yu and Rita appear in front of them...
——At this moment, cheers like thunder broke out at the scene.
"Ah, everyone, be quiet."
With just one sentence, Lin Yu made all the people who were cheering just now shut up.
Afterwards, in front of everyone, Lin Yu said something that no one expected.
"Thank you for your concern. I, Lin Yu, am fine, so you can all rest assured now."
"I returned to the Destiny headquarters mainly to say one thing."
"Although this incident happened suddenly, I hope everyone will calm down a little after listening to it."
"From today on..."
"——I will step down as Archbishop of Heaven's Will."
........
Talk about the seventh day. We have been waiting for you for a long time, champion
After hearing what Lin Yu said at this time, in fact, more than one person at the scene wanted to speak out to keep Lin Yu.
After all, compared with the former bishop Otto who betrayed all mankind, Lin Yu is a perfect man with basically no faults to be found.
He doesn't have the same ZZ skills as Otto to suppress those bad guys, but he has enough power to deter these villains.
For those who had never known about the true fusion, Lin Yu did not bring much technological innovation.
But the problem is that Tianming's pursuit of technological innovation is originally intended to kill Honkai.
That bastard Otto did bring about a lot of technological innovations, but the problem is that after he introduced the new technology, he still allowed the collapse to develop behind the scenes.
Compared to Otto, who is openly causing the collapse but secretly helping it, Lin Yu, who did not bring much technological innovation but directly solved the fundamental problem, is definitely countless times more pleasing to the eye than Otto.
However, it was precisely because Lin Yu successfully resolved the collapse when he was the Archbishop of Destiny that everyone was now suppressing their inner impulses and not speaking.
This man deserves their respect, so everyone tacitly did not interrupt Lin Yu's speech.
"Ah, I also know what everyone is thinking. They are just thoughts like 'this is really sudden' and 'without Bishop Lin Yu, the Mandate of Heaven cannot function'."
"But everyone, think about it carefully - I slept on the moon for more than three years. Did destiny fail to function because of my absence?"
At this time, Lin Yu restrained the smile on his face and said to everyone.
"More than three years ago, I told you at my inauguration ceremony that perhaps my high-end combat capability is important, but my colleagues, you are equally important."
"After I solved some problems, the post-disaster reconstruction work was completed by everyone's hard work while I was away."
"There's no need to belittle yourself. In my opinion, we are all heroes and we can hold our heads high with pride."
"Well, if I think about it...I don't think I have anything else to say."
At this moment, a relaxed smile appeared on Lin Yu's face.
"Thinking back on the situation, I was the little brat bishop who was forced to do something."
“Without going through enough training courses, I simply relied on the purest ideas in my mind and turned them into words and actions.”
"I think I am worthy of the power this position brings me, but if I think about it carefully - now that we don't need to fight Honkai anymore, maybe everyone still needs someone who can do a good job of commanding."
"Of course, my resignation does not mean that I will quit Tianming. From now on, I will still work hard with everyone as a member of Tianming, so..."
At this moment, Lin Yu suddenly looked at a camera in the venue that had been installed at some unknown time.
"I thought you might have forgotten what I said to you three years ago, so I will revise it and say it again."
"I, Lin Yu, can bury Zhongyan, so I can naturally bury all of you as well."
"Now, even the end has been buried by me, I think..."
"——I don't think anyone would dare to cause trouble at this time."
Hearing Lin Yu's threatening words, a member standing in the meeting room suddenly burst out laughing.
To be honest, Lin Yu’s resignation speech was really not up to par.
No matter the wording or the expression on his face, it made everyone feel very... rough?
However, they do not think there is anything wrong with such "unpresentable" behavior.
In the past, Otto would give some wonderful speeches to boost morale, whether before the start of a war or on some important occasions.
The members of the Destiny who had never known Otto's true identity were naturally moved by the bishop's sincere words, and were ready to work for Otto with great enthusiasm.
But Lin Yu was different. His choice of words was not appropriate, and sometimes he even gave others a rude feeling. But the problem was...
——When the boss can really solve the most serious problems, will these problems still be problems?
Moreover, Lin Yu's current somewhat rude and impulsive tone and expression were also deliberately maintained by him.
Otto has deceived everyone for a long time in the past. If Lin Yu behaves as flawlessly as Otto, it might instead trigger PTSD among the members of Sin Ming against Otto.
In order to ensure everyone's psychological safety, Lin Yu would naturally choose a completely different route from Otto when giving a speech.
After all, he did not have a prominent family background like Otto from the beginning.
Some people might think that Otto's father Nicholas gave him nothing.
But this idea was obviously wrong. Although Nicholas did not fulfill his fatherly responsibilities after giving birth to Otto, he had already given Otto one thing since his birth - the identity of a member of the Apocalips clan.
It was precisely because of this identity that Otto had enough opportunities to learn enough knowledge in the Middle Ages when civilians might not even have enough food to eat, and became a military doctor during the Mandate of Heaven.
This identity not only means that Otto has the opportunity to access enough knowledge, but also represents a channel for promotion.
If Otto was just a commoner, he might not have the opportunity to acquire this knowledge, meet the woman who is most important to him, and then become a fool who can deceive the whole world.
But Lin Yu is different, he has been a commoner from the beginning.
Although he has Rita as his sworn sister and Bianca as his friend, their actions of preventing him from going to the battlefield are undoubtedly stumbling blocks for Lin Yu on his road to revenge.
Perhaps later on, Lin Yu did become a member of the Apokalis clan, but this was given to him by Theresa after he had demonstrated enough value.
Whether from the state of mind or from the experience of promotion, Lin Yu felt that as a little kid from the mud, he should show this rude but sincere state.
As for if someone thinks that what he did is wrong...using stereotypes to fit a living person, and then asking why you don't act according to the stereotype, what else can Lin Yu do but smile bitterly.
He is a person.
Although he was almost going crazy but not crazy at all, and although he already had powers beyond human, mentally speaking, he was still a living person.
Everyone has his or her own way of living and behavior, and because of other people's eyes, they imitate some actions that should not be imitated...
Ha, let’s just forget about this kind of thing.
And now, looking at the smiles and relieved expressions on everyone's faces, Lin Yu knew that his ideas should be generally correct.
"So now, you are no longer a bishop, right?"
After watching Lin Yu walk down from the podium, Mike took the initiative to lead the booing.
"Lin Yu, the bartender said that he specially mixed a new cocktail to celebrate your return--"
"Just wait."
Looking at his comrades who were gradually surrounding him, Lin Yu looked at the bartender, who looked solemn at the moment, with a subtle expression.
"Will you drink this wine yourself?"
"I... don't deserve it."
At this time, the bartender, who had already prepared a cocktail and brought it to the scene, handed the glass of wine to Lin Yu.
"The strongest wine should only be drunk by the strongest person."
"I have been waiting for this day for a long time - former Bishop Lin Yu, please!"
"Wow."
Glancing at the people around him who were obviously expecting something, Lin Yu even discovered that Kiana was hiding in the crowd with a video recorder ready to record this scene.
I haven't had grass for three years. This girl is either itching to eat or needs a beating.
Damn it, after the meeting I will make sure you can’t get out of bed!
"You guys... I just stepped down less than three seconds ago, and you guys are forcing me to abdicate."
"But never mind. I am indeed curious about what your so-called strongest wine tastes like."
Lin Yu took the cocktail and drank it in one breath after making mental preparation.
In the next moment, Lin Yu felt that the time around him seemed to have stopped.
This was not because he had drunk a glass of wine that almost sent him away, just like the first time he drank from the bartender.
On the contrary, this cocktail actually made Lin Yu feel that if he could have a glass of this fine wine every day, it might be a good choice.
“… unexpected flavor.”
Savoring the taste in his mouth, Lin Yu looked at his colleagues around him.
"I thought you were going to play a prank on me."
"I've already said it, this is the most powerful wine."
The bartender who took the wine glass from Lin Yu put away the teasing smile on his face and spoke to Lin Yu very seriously.
"The Ghost has told you before that most of us have a similar past as yours."
"In fact, I have never completely forgotten that my lover turned into a assassin and killed my daughter. Or rather... I really want to force myself to forget it, but I feel that if I forget it, I will lose something very important."
"Because of these two conflicting ideas, I ended up losing some of my memories - of course, now all these memories have been retrieved with the help of Doctor Fu."
"I don't know what you're thinking, but in my opinion, you're really too self-deprecating."
"For those of us who have lost important things to the collapse, Lin Yu, you are undoubtedly our hero."
