Chapter 39: Join the Glorious Evolution
I haven't seen him for more than ten years, and when he sets foot in Piltover again, Victor is no longer in high spirits.
Before the East was white, Victor traced the source of the energy surge and knocked on the door of Jace's workshop.
Basking in the joy of the experiment's progress, Jace thought it was his dull peers who were back in the heat.
Jace impatiently opens the door, only to find a strange man standing outside the door with a tin can hidden under a mask, and his whole body has been greatly enhanced.
He didn't recognize it as Victor, and Victor was surprised that it was Jace who opened the door.
"When did the Glorious Evolution Order also start selling to the door, I'm sorry to disappoint you, my hands and feet are intact and healthy, and there are no parts that need to be replaced."
Just as Jace coldly refused and slammed the door shut, the other party, who had been silent, spoke.
"Jace, let's talk."
Hearing the cold metal sound, Jace was struck like a lightning strike, his eyes refocused on the mask in front of him, and his hands began to tremble uncontrollably at the thought of some terrible experience.
"You...... You're Victor?! ”
The masked man's voice was exactly the same as the one Jace heard outside the abandoned factory a few days ago, and it was very recognizable, and Jace originally thought that his old friend was just catching a cold, but he didn't expect that it was actually an iron can talking to him before.
The world is impermanent, and the change in Victor's appearance makes him a little unacceptable.
"Hell, how did you end up like this? Which bastard ...... you"
As smart as he was, Jace quickly figured out the murderer, and his irritable questioning came to an abrupt end, and he suddenly choked up, and his voice almost shook out:
"Oh...... I think I understood, it was you who made yourself like this, how did you! How can you experiment on yourself?! ”
"For what?!"
"To prove your own theory? Do you have to be so extreme? I thought the people of Zuan were so extreme, but I didn't expect that only you would be so perverted. ”
Rubbing his sour eyes, Jace's mouth was silent, no matter how high his IQ was, he would never understand what Victor was doing.
"Don't let emotions affect you."
Victor saw Jace's nervousness.
This strengthened his theory.
Most of the time, emotions only have a negative impact.
It's like Jace was hit too hard when he saw him, and he lost control of his emotions for a while, and he couldn't speak normally, his heart rate was too fast, and his thinking was confused.
On the other hand, I didn't have any waves in my heart.
There is neither the touching of a reunion, nor the mockery of pity.
Victor didn't care about Jace's collapsed mentality, and he wouldn't try to appease him, but said bluntly:
"After being expelled from the Piltover academia, I have been working on a secret project in Zaun on how to eradicate disease, hunger, and hatred once and for all.
Jace, you are intellectually superior, and if you join me, the two of us can achieve something we have never achieved before, neither Piltover nor Zaun, no one can imagine what we can do.
That is to save humanity from their own hands!
Human beings often lose their minds due to mood swings, hurting themselves and others; For his own selfish desires, he did not hesitate to start a war and spend thousands of miles; It consumes a lot of resources, but it can't compete with the limitations of disease and lifespan.
In my case, all these problems can be solved.
I have found a way to steadily clear the emotions of the human being, and combined with the enhancement technique, the flesh and blood will break through the limitations of nature, and then the human being will become rational and powerful, and achieve the ultimate evolution. ”
The deep eyes bloom with a look of obsession, which is the infinite yearning for the ideal future.
"Jace, come with me. Join the glorious evolution! ”
Victor's always flat tone made Jace shudder, how could he say such morally depraved words so easily?
Jace had heard Victor say that he had never liked the purpose behind these arguments.
But now, with Victor himself telling him that he's found the means to implement it and put it into action, how can Jace not be afraid?
Jace was a sensual man, and his anger led him to shout:
"Humanity doesn't need to be saved, let alone saved by your methods, what you are doing is destroying the source of human wisdom and creativity! When human beings become desireless and uncreative, then we are not far from destruction. ”
"Why do you like to go against me so much?"
A cold gaze fell from under the mask, and Jace's hairs stood on end, and then Victor looked away, landing on Jace's workbench, resting on the Shurima crystal, unable to take his eyes off it.
"If you don't join, forget it, I'm used to going it alone anyway. Hand over the crystals to me, and I'll go through the glorious evolution alone. ”
At this point, Jace understood Victor's true intentions, and it turned out that his goal in the first place was the Shurima Crystal! And his own joining is dispensable for him, and whether he accepts it or not will not affect his plan.
Although he didn't know what Victor meant by "glorious evolution", and he didn't know exactly what he was going to do with the crystal, he certainly didn't care about the free will of others.
Panic and anger distorted Jace's face, and he lost his previous handsome and confident expression:
"I know your original intentions were kind, but your approach has seriously deviated from the track, don't be obsessed anymore, there is no future in this way!"
Seeing Victor walking towards the workbench, Jace shouted to stop him, but Victor ignored it and walked straight to the crystal's location, stretching out his cold arm towards the mango-sized, blue crystal.
Syllable!
Jace slapped Victor's reinforced arm away just in time, and the fragile fingertips became red and swollen from the collision with the hard steel, and the pain of ten fingers connected to the heart kept coming.
He knew that the current Victor was not something he could contend with.
They had fought many times in front of many colleagues because of disputes, and some of them won and lost.
And this time is different, once the fight starts, facing Victor, whose whole body is enhanced, Jace will have no chance of winning, and will lose without any suspense.
But even so, he still stood firmly in front of Victor with open arms.
"Forgive me for refusing! I will definitely not allow you to take it, what you need is not crystals, but moral education! Go back and read the children's education book and learn what human nature is! ”
Jace's poisonous tongue didn't anger Victor, but it made him understand that the megalomania in front of him needed to be repaired, or he would keep standing in his way.
Victor has been putting up with Jace's arrogance and rudeness before, and although Jace will treat others more aggressively and treat himself a little more often, this does not mean that Victor has no resentment in his heart.
Although he is not swayed by emotions now, there is an idea that still exists, and it has nothing to do with the big cause, just a little idea of his.
"Why are your prejudices so entrenched? Why do humans always turn a blind eye to their own mistakes? ”
Jace was suddenly pushed away by the violent Victor, and his whole body was knocked down on the workbench, and his whole head buzzed as he watched the morning light cast by the skylight.
Victor then grabbed the crystal in one hand and placed it on top of Jace's head to observe, as if judging by its structure the approximate hardness of the crystal and the maximum impact it could withstand.
"Because the greatest mistake of human beings is themselves."
The crystals reflected the sunlight in a brilliant light that Jace couldn't look at it directly.
"Now, it's up to me Victor! A pioneer in the new era of technology! I'm here to help you fix it! ”
Before he could finish speaking, Jace's eyes were no longer burning from the light, and he barely opened them to see the crystal being lifted high.
As the sun shines.
Smashed down again!
Boom!
Bloodstained! Σ(°△°|||) ︴
