Chapter Seventy-Nine: Chess Pieces? Chess player?

Lex Luthor, son of the wealthy Leno Luthor. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info His father is definitely among the top 10 richest in the United States. It stands to reason that having such a father should make Lex very happy.

But let's be honest, Lex wasn't happy. His father's personality was, in other words, an absolute pathology of pathologies. The first thing Leno taught him was not to believe in friendship. Any friendship is false, and the only thing that is real is rights and affection.

But Leno, who mentioned this concept of family affection, treated his son like a subordinate and a slave. Or rather, like an enemy.

In the words of those literati, Leno was a tyrant with a morbid character, a dictator. In Lex's heart, he can be said to love and hate his father Leno. Lex longs for Leno's father's love, for his true heartfelt relationship, and for the usual father-son conversation.

But all of this seemed to Leno to be an act of weakness. Whenever Leno found out that Lex had this tendency, the former would do whatever it took to insult Lex and oppress Lex, making Lex think that his ideas were wrong and weak, and that only by accepting and inheriting Leno's sick thoughts was correct.

Whenever he sees other families happy and happy, Lex often has a feeling of jealousy and envy mixed together. He got the money and power that most people in the world wanted, but he never got the family, friendship and love he wanted most.

Lex lived twenty-one years and found that the people who approached him were basically interested in him, greedy for his money, power, and people who wanted to bring him down. In the past 21 years, he has met too many such people. It was so much that he desperately wanted to give up everything he was looking for, but the moment he was rescued by Delos, his heart rekindled a passion for everything he longed for.

Delos, and his friends, were very different from the people he had been with. Delos, in particular, was sure that he was a friend worth making.

So he paid for a car for Delos and helped him call the best doctor in the United States to treat him. After doing so much work, I just want to get the friendship of the other party.

Leno didn't do anything when he knew what he was doing. Instead, he laughed at Lex as always, thinking he was playing a game of friendship.

But he knew very well that he was not playing a friendship game, especially after the conversation with Delos about 'dreams' in the castle, he was even more sure that he was not playing a friendship game, but that he really had a friendship with Delos.

It has to be said that Delos's words moved Lex at that time.

To say that you are not disappointed in this world is absolutely false. Although Lex had a lot of money and power, he also longed for the wonderful world that Delos said.

Changing the world? How arrogant, hilarious, and ignorant, but for some reason, Lex felt for a moment that Delos still had the ability to do it.

However, Lex was still a qualified businessman after all, and this personal feeling was quickly eliminated by his reason. However, out of friendship with Delos, he would not directly reject Dilos, but let out a word, saying that only when Dilos showed this value and possibility, he would do his best to help him.

But Lex had no idea that a few months later, not long after returning from New York, Delos would show this value and possibility.

"Can you still modify someone else's memory?"

Lex looked at Delos with a fiery eye, and the latter quickly subconsciously took a few steps back when he saw this, and looked at Lex with some vigilance:

"Lex, please calm down. I knew I was attractive, but I wasn't interested in men. ”

Lex's face darkened. Seeing this, Delos couldn't help but crack his mouth and laugh.

"You're the first person to have this reaction after hearing about my abilities, can you explain why?"

As he spoke, Delos took a piece of candy from his pocket and tossed it into his mouth, his blue eyes revealing a serious color.

"You're right, people are really scared." Lex shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "Of course, I also belong to the average person. It's just that I'm more surprised. ”

"Oh?" When Delos heard this, a hint of banter appeared on his face: "Your answer reminds me of those scientists who are crazy about superpowers. ”

Lex couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Trust me, Delos, I'm definitely a normal person. It's just that I'm more receptive to this kind of thing than others. ”

Without waiting for Delos to say anything, Lex continued, "I know what you think. Most people do be wary of superpowers like you, and I'm no exception. But since the protective and alarm device I carried with me didn't alarm me, combined with our previous friendships, I think these points are enough to prove that our friendship and trust are more and stronger than the average person. ”

Lex smiled at Delos' somewhat puzzled look, and then pulled a men's necklace from his collar, but this necklace was still different from other necklaces, at least other necklaces would not have such an obvious disc-like mechanism on it.

"I have my own secrets, Delos." Lex seemed to be happy: "I don't know about other countries, but more than 10 million people in the United States basically have this thing to prevent being controlled by others with mental abilities." ”

Delos: "Is it because of Professor X?" ”

Lex nodded, and then smiled helplessly: "But it seems that this thing is still flawed, for example, when the user has mood swings, it will be sensed by people like you." ”

"I don't normally use this ability unless I have to." Delos spread his hands: "I'm still quite confident in my self-control. ”

"Don't get me wrong, Deloth." Lex's face was a little serious: "I've always regarded you as a friend, and the reason why I'm honest about these things is only because we trust each other, isn't it?" ”

Delos didn't speak, but his suddenly serious face gave Lex the answer.

"In that case." Lex hooked the corners of his mouth, looked at Delos and said, "What do you need me to do?" ”

"It's not what you're going to do, it's what we're going to do?" Delos stood up, his eyes tinged with confidence and ambition: "Lex, we're all on a huge chessboard......"

Delos jerked the curtain open of the window, and Lex squinted at the sudden intrusion of sunlight, and then heard Delos say to him, "See? The chessboard is that world, and mastering all of John Hammond's work is the first step to becoming chess players! ”
