Chapter 178: Believe It or Not
"Then you really have to respond to your requests and treat yourself as a god." In the dream, Star Swirl doesn't seem to be afraid of Clotho.
"Don't forget, I saved you, should you thank me?"
Star Swirl could hear the teasing in his tone and asked in a low voice, "You...... Why save me? ”
"Haha," said Clotho, who let out a hearty laugh as if hearing some funny joke, and suddenly leaned closer, and said in a soft, cool voice, "Because you two are so funny, it's the spice of my boring life." ”
"Interesting? What is your relationship with him? Star Swirl asked.
"If we were brothers, would you believe it?" There was a sly glint in Clotho's eyes.
Star Swirl breathlessly stared at the man in front of her in disbelief and said, "I don't believe it, you're just taking on his form." ”
A smirk appeared on Clotho's face, "I can indeed transform into a thousand forms, but do you know that what I am now is what I am?" ”
"This ...... How can it be? ”
A chill rose up her spine, and Star Swirl had trouble breathing, and reason told her that it was still to be told whether Caspo's words were true or false, and she blinked a few times and said in a dumb voice, "I don't understand, why are you telling me this." ”
"Don't you think it's too boring for only one person to watch a good show?" A playful look appeared on Clotho's face.
"Do you know what kind of person X is?" Star Swirl purses her lips and doesn't reply, and Clotho wasn't expecting her answer.
"A person who is too purposeful," he said slowly, "because he is cold by nature, his instinct is stronger than that of ordinary people, and once the purpose is determined, he will do whatever it takes, by any means,
Even if you get injured halfway, you will only stop when you have achieved your goal. He is more like an unknown beast than a human, and even if you are fearless, when you face him, you will have a hint of retreat. So, I really hate him. ”
Listening to his inducing voice, I suddenly felt that the X in his mouth was gradually intertwined with the one he knew, and became a somewhat strange person.
"It seems that you still don't know your situation, I'll let you understand a little more." Clotho continued,
"You should have found out that you have come to this point under his guidance, but have you ever wondered what good it is for him?"
"Is it to wake up the body that has been hidden, so as to get antibodies to the ST virus?" Star Swirl spoke the answer.
"And then?" Clotho's playful smile deepened a little.
"Then we can deal with Hermes and the rest of them, they're antagonists, aren't they?" Star Swirl asks.
"You don't really think that he agreed to stay with you to get revenge, do you? Then I can tell you unequivocally that he did it entirely for himself. ”
Her heart beat faster, and Star Swirl couldn't contain the tremors in her heart when she heard that. Sometimes, when the truth is laid out one by one, you will find that you prefer to be kept in the dark.
"For himself?" Star Swirl repeated Clotho's words, shaking her head vigorously to shake off the ridiculous thoughts that had come to her mind.
"Yes, from the very beginning, he knew about your family's relationship with Hermes, which is why he found your sister and you.
It's ironic to say that one of your sisters is a virus and the other is an antidote, so one of them is destined to become a victim. ”
"So, what he's always wanted to get is the antidote?" Star Swirl's eyes blurred as the light around her shifted, and she asked in a difficult tone:
"Also... Anything else... What I don't know? ”
"There's a lot more you don't know, but there's something close at hand," Clotho held out a hand that would dissipate the haze in the air, revealing his face more clearly.
"Awakening your sleeping body is extremely risky, and if you're unlucky, it's possible that your soul will be gone. He's been hiding this from you, right? ”
Star Swirl felt a tightness in her chest, Mr. X had never told her about this, and now that she thought back to the time when she easily agreed to wake up Lu Jingfan, X seemed to hesitate for a moment.
"But don't worry just yet, the worst of this shouldn't happen to you. He has been busy finding a suitable soul container lately, and if something goes wrong when he wakes up, he can also be remedied in time. ”
"Soul vessel?" Star Swirl suddenly remembered a few dolls from the old mansion in Greenland, he said that the dolls had the remnants of the child's consciousness before he died, that is, the soul vessel?
"If you want me to say, you're such a fool," mockery was written on Mr. X's face almost identically, "you're about to be sold, and you're counting the money for others?" Do you believe in him like that? ”
Star Swirl wasn't annoyed to hear that she was being belittled like this, and now there was something that made her care more:
"You have other purposes besides wanting to watch a good show, right?"
"Tsk, when it comes to the purpose, there is indeed one, and I want you to leave him."
"Why? As far as your statement is concerned, the antidote is important to him. And I chose to leave before he got the antidote, which is undoubtedly the biggest betrayal, right? ”
"You have to figure it out, did you come here to avenge your sister, or did you just want to do his bidding? He has taken advantage of you, why did you betray him? ”
"Avenging my sister...... But I don't have that ability yet. ”
"You can't see the red thread of fate in my hand, as long as I want to cut it, it has no possibility of struggling, including hermes, too."
"Can you help me get rid of Hermes?"
"Just a thought, if you leave X."
"But I don't believe you."
"Believe it or not. It won't be long before you find out that no one can be trusted, and you'll end up coming back to me. ”
In her dream, Clotho's figure became hazy, but the cool laughter echoed in Star Swirl's ears for a long time, making her hair stand on end.
Upon awakening, Star Swirl saw the figure leaning against the window, the afterglow of the setting sun outlining his face in gold, and a hint of languidness in his half-closed blue eyes.
He is so good-looking, so peaceful, in the mouth of the clotho is a flood beast, how much do you know about this person in front of you?
"You ......" blue eyes met black pupils, and the two of them fell silent at the same time.
"Are you still mad at me?" It was rare that he did not divert the topic and continued the conversation between the two in the morning.
"I'm angry that you're hiding something from me, are you angry that you're using me?" Star Swirl, however, was only whispering to herself, but she was calm on the surface.
"Get ready, move tomorrow."
