Chapter 973: Existential Value God-killing weapon
Don't you understand? Victor's whole person seemed to be frozen, completely frozen there.
He struggled to turn his gaze to the place where the voice had come from, and then, as if moaning, the words came out of his own throat.
"Still don't understand? What exactly is there that I haven't figured out yet? Can't you just tell me? Baron Einzberen, is it so fun to play with me? ”
The more he spoke, the louder he became, and his tone was filled with a sense of grief and indignation. And this made Smith Zhou, who had come out of the deepest part of the nursing home, smile a little helplessly.
"You know what? I've always thought that for most human beings, ignorance is the best option. Blindly chasing answers is not a good thing for people like you. Because what if you know the answer? You have neither the power to change everything, nor can you allow yourselves to avoid all of it. So instead of agonizing over these things that shouldn't be known, it's better to be honest and ignorant. ”
Smith Chow believed that he had admonished Victor out of pure kindness. But Victor could not accept his kindness. Or rather, he simply didn't think what Smith Zhou said was right.
So at this moment, he was completely crazy and yelled at Smith Zhou.
"Ignorant, why should I be an ignorant? I was toyed with by your so-called answers, and in the end you didn't even want to give you a basic answer. Don't you think it's unfair to me? Or is this what you are doing to your fellow men until you want to play me to death? ”
"It's not as serious as you say." Shaking his head, Smith Zhou, who was a little amused by Victor's statement, glanced at him, and said to him with a smile after seeing the serious look on his face. "If you want to know the answer so much, then I'll tell you."
"It's actually quite simple. Everything about what you are confused about can be explained with an explanation. That's who I am. I am the red pine nut, the one who imprisoned the fierce gods. Everything, including the appearance of the gods, was part of my design. Can you understand what I say? ”
Smith's succinct words sent Victor into a deep speechlessness. At this moment, he didn't know what kind of expression to use to face the man who told him all the truth.
I wanted to ask him indignantly why he was hiding this from himself, but he couldn't say a word because he was afraid of the power that this man represented. I wanted to cry about the sadness of being played with in the palm of my hand, but because of a variety of complex emotions and thoughts, he couldn't open his mouth at all.
At this time, he finally understood what Smith Zhou had said before, the benefits of being an ignorant person. This is indeed asking for trouble, because even if he knew this, what could he do? He didn't have the power to change anything, or even to hide from anything. In Smith Chow's hands, he is like a duckweed who goes with the flow, and everything is involuntary. It's really better to know nothing than this.
A person with a high heart will have such thoughts, and he has really reached the end of the road. His heart has been traumatized, and his self-confidence and persistence have been devalued as worthless. At this time, he already had the idea that all his previous ambitions were just a ridiculous fantasy. Because compared to the man in front of him, he really felt that he was nothing, and he was as small as an ant.
He's already starting to give up on himself, but that's not what Smith Chow wants to see, and if that's the case, then he's a piece of waste. And wasting time on a waste is undoubtedly a wrong thing to do. So, he had to pick himself up again.
"Mr. Doom, what are you worried about? You know, if people like you are going to be troubled by this problem, then wouldn't those guys who are not even as good as you be even more miserable? People need to learn to look in a good direction. Although, your existence is not as important as you think. However, that doesn't mean you're useless. In fact, being able to tell you this, and getting you here, already means that you have a very ordinary opportunity. ”
"Opportunity?" Victor, grinning and even hoarse, asked. "What other chances do people like me have? In the end, it's just like a marionette in your hands. ”
"If you sink in self-pity, then you can only be a puppet. No, you can't even be a puppet. That's a place for the ignorant, and it's impossible for you, knowing so many things, to go back to where you came from. ”
The smile on Smith Zhou's face who pushed the wheelchair up had already retracted, and his expression was flat, making people feel a kind of strong pressure as if facing a mountain. The danger of the collapse of the mountains if he is not careful, made Victor realize that this dangerous man had already moved a little bit of killing intent towards himself in his heart. However, this killing intent was hidden, because Smith Zhou obviously left him a chance.
"But, Mr. Doom. I have to admit that you are a capable guy. It would be a shame for a guy like you to be ruined like that. I admire talent, in fact, the best of humanity is the one who makes my heart flutter. You are no exception. So, I'm willing to give you a chance. You should be able to understand what I mean, this is your last chance. ”
Swallowing the saliva generated by fear, Victor, who was called a talent by Smith Zhou, gave the man in front of him a serious look, and then lowered his head deeply and said to him deferentially.
"My lord, what do you command?"
The question of standing to die and to live on his knees would not exist in the minds of people like Victor at all, so he didn't have to spend any time at all, he was already kneeling directly in front of Smith Zhou, and in this way, he expressed the final choice he made.
And this choice was clearly to Smith Chow's satisfaction.
People always admire those hard-headed heroes, but they don't want to think about how such people can be so easily used. They are principled and persistent. Using them means that you have to compromise with their principles and persistence. And that's the same as you can't do a lot of things with them.
So in contrast, Smith Zhou prefers to use guys who don't have so many principles and can stretch with the song. Those who know the times are junjie, this sentence is not wrong. At least in terms of ability, they are not inferior to the former, and besides, they are really much more convenient.
Like this Victor in front of you, it is undoubtedly a good example. As long as they can survive and get the most tangible benefits, such people will not care what they have to do. And it is precisely because of this that many things are explained to him, which is a very good choice.
"It's easy! Mr. Doom, you just have to go back to Mephisto and use this thing. ”
As he said this, Smith Zhou pulled out a peculiarly shaped short sword from behind him.
The quaint shape makes people see its history at a glance. And the clearly visible patina on it shows that such a weapon is completely made of copper. It doesn't look sharp, and the edges are even a little crippled. But it was such a weapon that made Victor feel like he had met a terrible flood beast.
He didn't understand the reason for this, but he could feel that this special feeling must be inseparable from the words engraved on the sword.
It was a few very strange words, ancient and almost indistinguishable, and they were deeply carved into the crest of the sword. In the middle of these words, you can clearly see some dark red traces, as if something has solidified. It looked like blood, but it didn't seem to be. Because there are very obvious burnt and corroded marks around this mark. If it's blood, then it's a little too scary.
But if that's not it, then what is it? Victor didn't have time to think about it, he respectfully raised his hands and took the dagger from Smith Zhou's hand. Then, he cautiously asked Smith Zhou.
"My lord, what is this thing?"
"Didn't I promise you a chance to take revenge on Mephisto? That's the opportunity I gave you. Smiling slightly, Smith Zhou pointed to the short sword in his hand and explained to him. This is the ancient human emperor in order to kill the gods specially created the Zhuxian sword. As long as you take advantage of Mephisto's lack of attention, you stab this weapon entangled in countless curses and resentments into his body. Even if he has great skills, he will inevitably die after all. How about it, would you like to give it a try? ”
"A weapon capable of killing gods?" Looking at the not-so-inconspicuous short sword in his hand, Viktor couldn't help the greed in his heart and swallowed hard.
This is a weapon that can kill gods, and if you use it well, you can do a lot of incredible things. It is even said that it can create terrible miracles. But the question is, do you really want to do it? (To be continued......)
