"What are you looking at?" Spayton walked up to the snake gambler and asked.
Gambling snake looked at the mountains rising and falling in front of him, his eyes were deep and thoughtful. The thin oxygen and sub-freezing temperatures seemed to have no effect on the already cold man.
"Look at my past." Gambler replied.
"Your past is quite spectacular, and it doesn't seem to be suitable for ordinary people to survive." Spayton made a joke that he thought was quite clever.
Gambling snakes usually don’t smile, and it’s no different this time: “Many years ago, when I first left Qianming, I thought I had changed some things, but a few months ago, when I set foot on this land again, But I found that nothing had changed.”
"Is that why you joined the Inverse Cross?" Spayton said: "Because you believe that Tianyi can do what Qian Ming can't do."
"People need ideals to live. I once tried to bury my ideals, erase the past, and live an ordinary life. But then I realized that the world is too dirty. Even if I find a clean place to live the rest of my life, I am just deceiving myself and others. .
My path in life has not been my choice since childhood, but I have no regrets about my past experiences. I serve the light, work in the darkness, and use the blood of sin to wash away the filthy souls. I hope to create a new world where children can choose their own future path instead of resignedly submitting to a predetermined fate. "The gambling snake replied: "And Tianyi is the only answer I have found so far. "
"It's good to have ideals, but I think your idea will never be realized." Spayton said: "Human beings always want to create paradise, but our paradise itself is ugly. The current empire is indeed very corrupt. But in a few hundred years, when we look back on history, we will definitely say that they were once great. They unified the entire earth and made contributions in various aspects such as national integration, racial issues, and language simplification.
Suppose the empire is really destroyed one day and is replaced by another force, maybe us, maybe someone else, it doesn't matter, in short, it is replaced by someone, and your ideal world really comes true. But how long can it last
Any human dynasty will fall and perish, it’s just a matter of how long it takes. People place their hopes on the emperor's character and inheritance, and on the bureaucracy's awareness and introspection. This is the most typical form of folly. One day, those in power will abandon morality and responsibility and no longer pursue fairness and freedom. Driven by lust, human will is not worth mentioning at all. Even a natural phenomenon like aging can easily change a person's mind. What are we humans... exactly? "
Gambler turned around and glanced at him; "Is this the conclusion of the Night Knight... The bad nature of the entire group has destined individuals to adapt and change, and is also doomed to some kind of reincarnation... "
"I'm just talking. I'm a mercenary. I don't have a firm stance, let alone your so-called ideals." Spayton said: "Maybe one day, I will leave out of concern for my own safety. This organization. But at least at this stage, I feel that joining you is much safer than staying outside the Anti-Cross."
Gambler sneered: "Then you think our boss and this organization are too simple."
"Have you two chatted enough? Reconnaissance is not about looking at the scenery, it is about looking for things." A bigfoot snow monster with white hair and a height of two meters appeared behind the two of them. As if complaining, a sentence came out of his mouth: talk.
"You hide in the air-conditioned room and play with remote-controlled Bigfoot, but it's so cold here that we can't move." Spayton turned around and said.
The marshal said angrily: "Nonsense, if I had your physique, I would build a big mechanical dog and ride it out for reconnaissance."
… …
Double Eagle County, Yakutsk, in a bookstore.
Tianyi slumped in the long-lost sofa chair, put his feet up on the table, and read an old newspaper. This was news about ten days ago. The headline was: The Third Prince Victor Vitus. Tok encountered an accident while traveling and died while trying to save his life. The local governor resigned after taking the blame. The whole country mourned the untimely death of His Royal Highness.
In fact, Tianyi had already read some books of the heart related to Victor's death. He just wanted to see what the announced news looked like so that he could make more accurate guesses about the entire incident.
At this time, someone pushed open the door of the bookstore and came in, but it was not a customer, but a moon demon who went out to bring takeout.
Tianyi put down the newspaper, glanced at her, and said casually, "Thank you for your hard work."
The moon demon glared at him and tried to calm down by adjusting his breathing. She walked to Tianyi's desk and put down the things in her hands: "If my lunch hadn't been in there, I would have thrown it in your face just now."
Tianyi replied nonchalantly: "The microwave is over there."
"Are you my son? Go and heat yourself!" She moved a chair and sat down.
"You won't even heat up a meal, tell me how your kid will get married in the future." Tianyi picked up the takeout and walked towards the microwave.
Moon Demon picked up a book and hit him on the back of the head: "Are you my dad? So much nonsense!"
After closing the door of the microwave oven and setting the time, Tianyi scratched the back of his head and said, "Where did we talk yesterday?"
"The staged operation of changes." Yue Yao said: "Aren't you a genius? Don't you remember where I talked about it?"
"I'm a genius, but you're a fool, so I'm going to test you."
This time a book was thrown at Tianyi's face.
"If you could read all these books that are lying around, you might become a little smarter."
"If you weren't such a bitch, maybe you wouldn't have been thrown away."
Tianyi sighed: "In my busy schedule, I can find time to teach you about ability users, but your attitude is so bad."
"What you call a busy schedule is to ask me, the accountant, and Zuo Dao to buy takeaways from different stores for you every meal, and then curl up in a chair and read some..." She casually picked up a book from the pile on the corner of her desk. : “Texts like The Merchant of Venice to pass the time.”
"It's a good story, a celebration of love and devotion."
"It doesn't fit in with you."
"That's why I think this is a real 'comedy'." Tianyi smiled, just as the microwave buzzer sounded, he turned around and took out the takeout.
"So, the operation of the reverse cross is like this? Doing nothing all day long?" Moon Demon asked.
When Tian brought the food to the table, he pushed the Moon Demon's portion in front of her: "After you finish taking my class and master your abilities, you can go out to perform tasks like other members. With a little stimulation, you can become Monster, I’m afraid it will embarrass Da Ren.”
"My self-control ability must be stronger than you think, otherwise I would tear you apart the first time I saw you." Yue Yao replied.
"Huh... Believe me, I don't have to imagine, I completely know where your bottom line is." Tianyi grabbed Yue Yao's hand without any warning: "It's nothing so far, but..." He stretched out his other hand. , caressing her cheek: "This won't work."
Moon Demon's eyes turned red as expected, and the monster in her body seemed to be on the verge of awakening.
"You take your claws away now, and I can still pretend that nothing happened." Her tone was serious.
Tianyi retracted his hand and sat down again: "You haven't lost control, it's because the lessons in the past few days have changed the way you control your abilities." He paused: "I said, I completely know what caused you Conditions for awakening. Ordinary physical contact doesn't matter. For example, if you took the initiative to stick to me that day, it doesn't matter either.
There are two keys to your transformation. The first is the instinctive reaction to danger, such as severe pain and injury, fear, fighting instinct when facing strong enemies, etc.; and the second is sexual suggestion. Most variants There is a reason why people's abilities are only discovered in adolescence. I think you must be very distressed. Ever since you started to understand a little bit, those guys who had a crush on you just held your hand or gave you a half-joking hug from behind, only to be killed by you. As a result, your emotions towards creatures like men have changed. You must always carry a sense of hatred. Even if it is not hatred, at least you must not have a good impression. Otherwise, a small move may allow you to kill the person you like. . "
"Do you know too much?" Yue Yao looked at Tianyi suspiciously.
"Isn't that the reason why you left Xingtian? What a pitiful guy. I thought it was nothing to reach out and touch my face as a friend of the opposite sex who I just became familiar with. What age is this? Do you need to kill someone? It turned out that he really Just kill him, just kill him, and it will also affect dozens of innocent companions who were eating nearby. In the end, that stronghold will be able to open a human flesh restaurant. After that, you will naturally not be able to stay in Xingtian. , because even if you explain clearly, they have no reason to forgive your behavior."
Moon Demon's expression changed obviously: "How did you find out..."
"It's too easy. When you tell me your real name, I can piece together your past while sitting in the bookstore." Tianyi replied: "I will explain the principle to you later. Now, can you please control it?" Settle into your emotions, eat something, and get back to class.”
Yue Yao picked up the plastic tableware and reminded with hesitation: "Since you know my past, you should understand that once Xing Tian learns that I have now joined the Reverse Cross..."
"What can they do?" Tianyi interrupted: "Let me sacrifice your head? To pay tribute to those dead brothers?" He laughed: "You don't have to worry about the situation of people like me. Bar."
"I'm just worried about my situation," she replied.
"Whatever you say." Tian Yiyi said: "Anyway, you should know now what I am 'busy' with when you can't see me."
