Chapter 267: It's just power
On the other hand, when the final blow of the "Meteor Dragon" cleared Hannibal's basic division, the upgrade components on his body were pulled out by Li Zheng's system - this is something that originally belonged to the system, and this time it can be regarded as returning to its original owner.
However, Li Zheng did not rush to install the upgrade components, he looked back at the illusion around him, and the illusion composed of memories not far away - in which the seahorse was wielding a thousand-year-old tin staff, fighting for his future.
......Li Zheng frowned, "Sure enough, is there a black hand behind the scenes......?"
Li Zheng walked up slowly, and Hannibal, a little haggard after losing the upgrade components, lay on the ground, his eyes losing all brilliance.
"How does it feel to fail?" Li Zheng casually sat next to Hannibal and asked him, "By the way, you have also done me a great favor, if you need anything, please say as much as you can." β
"Hehe......" The passage of superpowers is still accompanied by vitality, and the eyes of the emaciated Mr. Governor at this time have begun to feel more and more blurred, and he seems to be able to put everything down at this time, "I heard from Becas that you saved that girl, that, the child who has the same symptoms as Cindia, right?"
"Are you talking about Xiaohui? That's right. Li Zheng nodded slightly, and at this time, the spider web-like cracks in the sky of the illusion began to grow bigger and bigger, "She is in a similar situation to Cantia, both are cursed." It is not a disease that cannot be cured by ordinary methods; even a little bit of psychotherapy can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. β
"Curse it......" Hannibal unbuttoned his coat and reached into his pocket with his weak right hand, and with a shake of his hand, he took something out.
It's a little book, and it looks like it's been around for some years.
"It's ......"
"My medical school diploma. Hannibal looked at his certificate self-deprecatingly, "I went to study medicine to cure Cindia's strange illness, hoping that I could save her." I hope she can be with me one day in the future. β
"But she was Bekas's wife, and it was settled very early. Li Zheng reminded: "When you don't know, they have a marriage contract - the right match." β
"yes, I learned that later, and when I think about it for countless nights, I think I was a fool. Hannibal stretched out his other hand and wanted to shred the old certificate in his hand, but at this time he didn't have much strength, this man who was once able to control the "reverse Kabbalah Tree of Life" and manipulate those demons who could destroy the world was now unable to tear even an old piece of paper, "Hehe...... Now that I know that it is a curse, I feel even more that I have nothing in this life...... What do I want this certificate for? What do I want this medical skill?"
"You're not getting nothing. Li Zheng raised his head and watched the battle between the Phantom God and the Polar God in the sky - because the timeline of the illusion is different from the real world, it is natural that in Li Zheng's eyes, the battle between the Phantom God and the Extreme God at this time is a "slow-motion" version, "What you have, I don't know how many people in the world can't pursue it in their lifetime." β
"Perhaps, but if you want an apple, then even if you give you a cart of bananas, it doesn't make sense, right?" No matter how much Li Zheng paid attention to him, Hannibal continued his lines: "When I got this 'power' in that sleepless night, I chose to join the army and become a military doctor. Will, my friend from high school at the time, went with me, and he was my 'counselor' when I pursued Cindia, but unfortunately he never had any serious ideas. β
"You went to the army to feed 'that guy', right?" Li Zheng glanced sideways slightly, and said to Hannibal, who was lying on the ground with an increasingly pale face: "The community of 'lust' and 'gluttony', if you want to really exert your power, you can't do it without money. So you need qualifications to prepare for your future progress. β
"Another point is that when this 'superpower' needs souls, there will be a lot of prisoners, enemy soldiers, and other targets that can be used, and these guys will not suspect you even if they disappear. "I didn't have to worry about saying that I would ruin my reputation if I went out, "Although I was a little tired and often panicked during that time, it was a rare day for me in so many years and I didn't need to worry." β
"Until...... Thomas is here, right?"
"Yes. Hannibal gritted his teeth in a tone that seemed to be saying something unrelated to him before: "I didn't know that Will and another comrade-in-arms, Walter, would be dark duelists, and they were 'rightfully cleaned' during one of Dorma's 'routine soul collections'!"
Walter ...... It's the ...... of the people of the seahorse."
"Father, that's right. Hannibal nodded slightly, "The engineer of the Guam base, a genius chemist, was killed by Thomas on the day he agreed with his girlfriend in District 11 to return to the United States to get married. β
"The iniquity of Dazi. Li Zheng did not have the habit of whitewashing Doma and said casually.
"But you are his heir. Hannibal shook his head and continued: "Forget it, I'm not qualified to talk about you, I've been covered in blood for so many years. β
"......" is another silence, Li Zheng knows what Hannibal is talking about, and in order to be able to meet the increasingly unreasonable demands of upgrade components, many times he has to give up his humanity.
"What are you...... Why bother?" Li Zheng shook his head, "It's just power. β
"Hehehe. Hannibal laughed sarcastically: "'But,' that's a luxury word." If it weren't for this force, I would have followed Will and Walter to the underworld, and if it weren't for this force, I wouldn't have seen the hope of resurrecting Cindiaβgiving it up? β
Li Zheng was speechless, so he had to let out a long sigh, remembering what a girl who also had an upgrade component said to him before.
"Lose your humanity, lose a lot, lose your animality, lose everything. β
"Makes sense......" Hannibal nodded slightly, and asked casually, "What did the great man say?"
Li Zheng thought of the "witch" who kept killing other girls in order to survive in the world, and said softly: "One...... Said by someone who is very similar to you. β
