"Tilar."
As soon as he sat down, the Ascender introduced himself: "This is my surname, you can call me Tilar. As you can see, I'm working in this aquarium to improve myself. "
"Ah, Huai Shi."
Huai Shi shook hands with him again, "Dongxia."
"Are you here for a trip?"
"Sort of." Huai Shi patted the backpack next to him and shrugged, "Traveling on a budget."
"It may be a bit presumptuous, can you take a look at this …"
Before Huai Shi asked, Tilar took out a brochure from the bag next to him and offered it with both hands.
"Coral Reef … Protection Plan?"
Huai Shi raised his eyebrows curiously and looked at the back of the brochure. The producer was the Southeast Asian Marine Protection Association, and Tilar's name was also listed among the honorary vice presidents.
The brochure also described how the local corals in Indonesia would be affected by the changing climate.
"It has gone from more than a thousand species to less than seven hundred."
After Huai Shi finished reading, Tilar said cautiously, "If this continues, I'm afraid the local coral population will be completely extinct. Since the ecological pollution in Australia, some of the coral samples we tried to preserve are also in a precarious state. "
Like a passionate salesman, once he opened his mouth, he kept talking about the pollution and impact of the local marine environment, as well as their response measures and rescue operations over the years.
It was completely beyond Huai Shi's expectations.
He didn't know why Tilar told him this.
When Tirar said that his mouth was dry and he picked up the coffee and found that he had finished it, he put down the cup awkwardly, "Sorry, I can't stop talking about this."
"Ah, it doesn't matter. In fact, I didn't pay attention to this."
Huai Shi scratched his head.
He didn't notice the malice from Tilar, and when he spoke, the excitement and enthusiasm revealed were completely undisguised.
This man was indeed sincere about his actions to protect the marine environment of his homeland.
It was rare to see such sincerity.
Moreover, while he was talking, Huai Shi had already eaten all the food in the coffee shop.
Yes, I'm half full.
"It's just that …" Huai Shi scratched his head. "You're telling me all this because you need my help? If that's the case, there's nothing I can do. "
He only had around 4,000 RMB on him. It wasn't even enough for him to survive until he reached the South Pole. How would he have the time to protect Indonesia's marine environment?
"No, no, no!"
Hearing that he wanted to pay, Tilard quickly waved his hand and refused, "We have formal fundraising activities and sponsors for the public. We don't need this kind of private donation. It's illegal and improper. I mean, if someone tries to persuade you, you should refuse and report it to the police."
"Huh?" Huai Shi was stunned.
Then, Tilar took out an invitation letter and a small coral badge from his bag and pushed them over the table.
"Thank you for your willingness to understand our business. Could you please join us?"
Tilard was afraid that Huai Shi would misunderstand, so he quickly said, "The members of the Marine Conservation Association have no obligations or restrictions. They also don't need to pay any fees. I mean, if you are interested, you can join us. We will regularly organize diving and various activities. Of course, it doesn't matter if you participate or not."
"Err …" Huai Shi was puzzled, "Then what do you want me to do?"
"To be honest, we need to increase our international influence. If you can pay more attention to Indonesia's marine environment in the future, just say a few words for it will be enough."
Tilard sighed helplessly, "The Australian fishing fleet is getting more and more excessive year after year. There is also the pollution from their industrial zone. We can only fight for international support and support. "
"Although I don't understand, I just need to say a few words for you, right?"
Huai Shi didn't mind.
In fact, he was even more surprised that Tyrar had spent so much time on such a trivial matter.
"That's great."
Tilard looked at the small badge that Huai Shi accepted and nodded with satisfaction, "After all, many foreign ascenders don't care much about the ecological environment. Do you need any help? If you don't mind, I can find you a pretty good tour guide. "
"No need."
Huai Shi waved his hand.
If he asked, Tilard would certainly not mind such a small amount of money. Listening to his tone, he had shares in the aquarium behind him. He was extremely rich and belonged to the nouveau riche class.
But in this case, he lost the original intention of Crow.
He wanted to try to live in the present world with his own ability without the help of others and extraordinary strength.
Whether it was playing the violin or buying a dining car all the way to Canberra, he tried to return to a normal life.
"Yes, that's right. This is my deep meaning. You actually understand!"
The black-hearted woman proudly boasted without any modesty. Immediately, her tone changed slightly, "But, you don't have to be too deliberate."
"Hmm?" Huai Shi was puzzled.
"Didn't you see it?" Crow said, "In the final analysis, the life of an ascender and the life of an ordinary person, isn't it your life? It's all part of your life. There's no need to forcibly separate it.
Isn't the one in front of you very good?
There's no need to indulge in fighting and killing. As a normal ascender, can't you make your own career and have your own life?
You just helped him. If you have any doubts, you can ask him. "
"…"
Huai Shi was silent for a long time.
Tilard noticed the change in his expression and stopped talking. Instead, he looked at him curiously. He didn't understand what the young ascender in front of him was hesitating about.
"It's like this."
Huai Shi thought for a moment and asked, "In your opinion, Mr. Tilard, what is the life of an ascender?"
"Hmm?" Tilard seemed to be at a loss.
"I mean –"
Huai Shi thought for a moment and asked softly, "What is the normal life of an ascender?"
"… So that's how it is. I understand."
After thinking for a long time, Tilard nodded seriously. He understood the confusion of the young man in front of him, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Huai Shi, what do you think of 'ascension'?"
"Hmm?"
"Do you think that ascension is a good thing?" Tilard asked seriously, "It does bring power, but it also brings danger, doesn't it? What do you think of your own nature's ascension? "
"To be honest, I haven't thought about it." Huai Shi shook his head awkwardly, "But I think that this may be a turning point in my life. It's my good luck."
"Luck? Many people have this idea, and some people think that it's the devil's curse. "
Tilard nodded in agreement, "However, in my opinion, ascension doesn't give us power, but power chooses us."
"What do you mean?"
"This is a talent, Mr. Huai Shi. A talent that can make up for your lack and give you the ability to realize your dreams."
Tilard raised his hand and ordered another cup of coffee. After sorting out his thoughts, he said, "I'm the son of a fisherman. I have six older brothers and one younger brother. To be honest, my childhood was not happy. This may be one of the reasons for my ascension, but I have no resentment toward my family.
It's not easy for my parents to raise us. I'm not qualified to ask for more things. I don't have a TV, no games, and no mobile phone.
The only place that can make me feel relaxed is the sea. "
"Many times, when I feel pain, I will dive and swim in the sea, looking at the beautiful schools of fish and corals. The world in the sea is so quiet and vast. Just by looking at it, I can feel a sense of happiness."
He said, "I'm eager to be a part of it."
"Until one day, when I was diving, I dived to a dangerous depth. When I felt suffocated, it was too late. At the most desperate moment, I saw a huge whale. It was a white whale. "
Tilard smiled and said, "It didn't save me. It didn't even notice me. It didn't care about me, a dying human.
It rose from the deep sea like a mountain, with a song like the tide. Its white body was lonely and huge. It rose, sang, passed through the forest-like coral, and disappeared into the depths of the sea.
To be honest, I was stunned at that time. "
Recalling the past, he said seriously, "I even forgot that I was drowning, forgot that I was about to die. Because it was too beautiful, like a bubble in eternal time. It made me feel that if I could see such a scene, even if I died, it wouldn't be a pity. "
"By the time I realized what was going on, I was already dragged onto the boat by my father. My father beat me violently and told me that I almost died. He also warned me not to get on his boat in the future and not to be a fisherman like him. He told me to go back to school and prepare for the exam.
But I knew that I was different. "
He said, "I have witnessed the beauty of this world."
"After I graduated from university, I met my former teacher. Only then did I know that I had become a sublimator. After some things, I became a merman. I got the ability to embrace the sea."
Tilard crossed his fingers and looked at him seriously. "I believe that this is a blessing from fate, giving me the opportunity to realize my dream. Now I realize my dream. I can swim in the sea with them. I also have to protect their world from being destroyed by human greed. "
"This is my life."
"The life of a sublimator is no different from that of ordinary people, Mr. Huai Shi."
He looked into Huai Shi's eyes and said word by word, "The key is, what kind of person do you want to be, young sublimator?
You feel lost about your life and everything you have, don't you?
The impact of sublimator on you is too great, so great that you get lost in it and don't know where to go. You feel that you are leaving the earth and floating to a place you don't understand. This is not because the world has abandoned you, but because you haven't found the place you should be. "
He raised his hand and pointed at Huai Shi. He said seriously, "So, you shouldn't learn from others, but ask yourself."
"Mr. Huai Shi, where do you want to go?"
Huai Shi was stunned for a long time. He suddenly understood.
He suddenly slapped his thigh.
He finally found the answer.
"I don't know." He answered with a trembling voice.
