Looking at the attributes of these three items, Dean McKenzie’s heavy mood eased somewhat.
But only somewhat.
His gaze then fell on the exploration treasure chest. He casually opened it.
[You opened the[Exploration Treasure Chestland received an inheritance from the Necromancer[Resurrection Ritual of the Dead]!]
Seeing the word “ritual,” Dean McKenzie subconsciously thought of the underground cavern of the Bloody Church and the 180 thousand wronged souls in Fern City, so he had an aversion to the term.
But regardless of Dean McKenzie’s feelings, with the end of the system prompt, a flood of information rushed into his brain.
With this influx of information, a ritual gradually unfolded before Dean McKenzie’s eyes.
Ten minutes later, Dean McKenzie opened his eyes.
“As expected, there is nothing non-evil about rituals!”
Dean McKenzie initially had a little expectation that his ritual might not be so
evil, but the result was the same.
This ritual was just like the other rituals Dean McKenzie knew about.
All required the sacrifice of human life.
However, as evil as this ritual was, Dean McKenzie was genuinely interested in
it.
This was because of the effect of the ritual!
It was able to resurrect the dead, such as Piggy Princess Elisa and handmaid Chloe.
“If I used this ritual, I should be able to save the two of them!”
This was a considerable temptation for Dean McKenzie.
But then the problem arose again.
“But no matter what my intentions are, once I perform this ritual, won’t I be no different from those fallen professionals from the Bloody Church and that guy named Raymond?”
Having witnessed and hated them, Dean McKenzie did not want to become like them under any circumstances.
He might be hopeful of reviving Piggy Princess and her handmaid, but he was reluctant to give up.
Therefore, Dean McKenzie was hesitant and struggling.
“By the way, power doesn’t seem to have a division between good and evil, right?
Besides, strictly speaking, my talent isn’t a good thing either.
After all, it’s usage is built upon slaughter.
But I don’t think my talent is evil, because from beginning to end, it’s me who controls the talent. I can be sure that the enemies I kill deserve to die, there are no innocents using their lives to enhance me, and I don’t see anything wrong with that.
If talent is like that, isn’t the ritual the same?”
“Although the form of the ritual is evil, if I can control my heart and use villains as sacrifices for the ritual, then the ritual is also a kind of public service recycling of waste, isn’t it?”
In a few words, Dean McKenzie had found the correctness of using the ritual for himself.
He was doing it to save people and to uphold justice.
But as soon as he uttered these words, Dean McKenzie’s head started to shake: “This is sophistry!
Evil is evil, my talent is evil, and this ritual is undoubtedly evil!
No matter what I say, the essence of evil will not change!”
“But what if the essence is evil?
I can give up on this ritual, but can I give up using my talent?”
At this moment, Dean McKenzie was digging himself into a hole.
On the one hand, he had witnessed too much of the dark side and deeply detested those creatures of the dark.
On the other hand, it seemed that the power he controlled was one of the dark sides.
He needed to slaughter to get power, and if you traced it to its essence, there was no difference to the ritual.
So, Dean McKenzie dived into this hole.
He admitted his talent was evil, but couldn’t give up using it.
Under the condition that he couldn’t give up using his talent, Dean McKenzie suddenly realized that when he faced the Bloody Church, the Holy Light Assembly, he seemed to no longer stand on the moral high ground.
He was no better than them.
With this in mind, did he still have the qualification to criticize them?
While Dean McKenzie was digging himself into this hole, the system notification refreshed again.
[Your dungeon journey has come to an end!]
Along with the system prompt, Dean McKenzie’s figure returned to the Blackwater Cave.
At the same time, a new[Goblin Scrolljappeared in Dean McKenzie’s hand.

Looking at the brief introduction of the Goblin Scroll in his hand, Dean McKenzie, who was caught up in a dilemma, tightly gripped the scroll in his hand..
