It's a big world, and different things are happening in every corner of the moment, someone is dying, someone is born, someone is breaking up, someone is getting married...... But these things are presented in Mills's eyes, like a movie.

The boundless world is a huge and boundless mirror, which has been removed from the proper barrier, and in Mills's eyes, the whole world is no different from a woman who takes off her clothes and is naked.

Because it is transparent, what is happening in the world, and what is going to happen in the future, is in your hands.

But isn't this torture?

How boring it is for a person to know what he is about to do and walk according to the trajectory of his fate that he knows, and over time, he will be * crazy!

Therefore, in Li Hao's view, Mills, the great prophet, has tasted centuries of loneliness, watched his relatives around him leave, experienced joys and sorrows, and all kinds of situations in the world, so he has a sense of indifference that he doesn't care about seeing through the red dust.

"Young man, do you want to know my past?" Mills's unwavering old voice sounded, deep as the sea, which can cleanse people's hearts and purify people's minds.

Li Hao nodded subconsciously, he also wanted to know what kind of past this old man who could predict the future.

At the mention of the past, Mills's unwavering eyes finally made a wave, looked at the dim lamp on the ceiling, and said slowly.

"Unlike other abilities who have been able to do their best through experimentation, I was born with the special ability of prophecy. I was born in a small country in the West, my father was a businessman, and my mother was a maid who made a living by doing chores every day, because my mother was very good-looking, and one night my father got drunk and killed my mother*, and so I was born, a baby who should not have come into the world. ”

Mills looked at the silent me, sighed, and counted all the black tea in the cup, as if he wanted to swallow all the troubles of this life into his stomach, and then he continued to tell Li Hao about his past.

"Every day with my mother, I live in a tiny basement where it's dirty beyond you can imagine, and I only eat one meal a day, and every meal is only a pitiful piece of black bread. When I was about five or six years old, I suddenly found out that I had this special ability, because as long as I said it, whether it was good or bad, it would happen. At first I thought it was fun, very fresh, and gradually ...... I found that this ability is not good. When I was eight years old, I knew that my mother was going to die in a car accident three days later, and oh there were no cars at that time, just the kind of carriage that walked on animals, and at first I was incredible. It wasn't until three days later, when my mother was in front of my eyes, that a galloping horse flew and killed her on the spot, and at that moment, I froze, did not cry, did not scream, just quietly looked at my mother's corpse. ”

"Then I predicted that the two carriages were my father's men, and that he wanted to eradicate me and my mother, because it was a stain on him. I was kicked out of my house...... Fortunately, God forbid, I was not starved to death, and a kind gentleman took me in, and I already knew at that time that this kind gentleman actually wanted to sell me to a landed nobleman as a slave, but I did not run away, because I prophesied that I would definitely be sold into slavery. ”

"From the moment of prophecy, I have not made any more senseless resistance, because it is useless, this is my 'predestined' fate, which cannot be changed. It was also at this age that I experienced the warmth and coldness of human feelings, and saw through all kinds of people, who were like a group of actors, playing their respective roles to deceive everyone. ”

"My slavery lasted until I was twenty-five years old, and I prophesied that I would have supreme rights, and that year, when that nobleman died, and I was liberated, and at that time, it was the time of the rise of the Industrial Revolution, and I joined in it, and by this opportunity, I first touched the field of 'supernatural powers', and finally I realized that this ability of mine, which can predict the future, is also a kind of supernatural ability - not combat, not support, not healing, but ...... The weirdest of the unknowns. Mills' voice was bitter.

"When my abilities were discovered by the Guild, they were immediately defined as the most mysterious 'X' factor, and I became the only X-class ability in this world who couldn't fight...... Until today. Mills smiled, but Li Hao felt that his smile was very helpless and self-deprecating.

Li Hao didn't speak, and quietly listened to Mills.

"I live in the association, it's a secret. My abilities, once exposed, will cause a bloody storm. After entering the association, I slowly discovered that the people there were a bunch of crazy people, crazy people who kill people without blinking! They mutilated the lives of innocent babies as what they called "evolutionary" experiments! Over time, I became numb to the people in the association, but twenty years ago, I met someone who was different from everyone else......"

Speaking of this, a flash of remembrance and sorrow suddenly appeared in Mills's eyes, and finally the remembrance became more and more intense, and he sighed, but did not say any more.

Li Hao didn't continue to ask, he knew that a person who didn't want to recall the past, when he thought of someone related to him, the sadness in his heart would become deeper and deeper.

Mills no longer talks about his past, but says, "See, sometimes, you know your future, and if those futures are 'predestined' futures that cannot be changed, then ...... It's really sad. Mills suddenly stretched out a finger and pointed it at himself: "For example, I know when I will do what kind of things, what kind of people I will meet at what time, but is this really happy?" ”

Li Hao felt a sense of loneliness engraved in his bones from his tone, this loneliness, although he didn't feel it, he knew that it would definitely make people crazy!

Yes, a person who knows what he will do in the future, and even knows the results at a glance, how boring will his life be - what motivation is there to repeat what he knows every day?

After saying such a long paragraph, Mills stopped talking, just looked at Li Hao. Li Hao was seen by him as uncomfortable, recalling what Mills said to himself before, and thinking about the meaning of what he said to himself: Why did he say these words to me? There is a mockery of fate in these words, but also about one's own life past, and it doesn't feel a little ridiculous to say this to someone who has only known each other for less than an hour?

After thinking about it for a long time, he still didn't have a clue, Li Hao took a deep breath, tried his best to calm his tone, and asked, "Mr. Mills, you tell me this...... Is there any moral to it? ”

Mills shook his head and smiled softly, revealing two extremely white teeth - his teeth were so white!

This is Li Hao's surprise to him, an old man in his twilight, with such white teeth, it is already incredible.

He looked at Li Hao and smiled, "Remember when I told you about your fate fork?" ”

Li Hao nodded.

Mills continued: "There are two extremes in your destiny, one, either you don't step into the realm of abilities and be an ordinary person, or you ......" Mills stopped talking, paused, and continued after a long time: "You will step into the circle of abilities, and moreover, you will bring great changes to the world of abilities. And these changes ...... Whether it's good or bad, I can't tell......"

"Because...... Your destiny is inherently bifurcated, and it is up to you to decide which direction you will take. And you...... Are you really willing to be mediocre for a lifetime? Mills's voice gradually became serious at the end, and his eyes stared at Li Hao fiercely.
