Seeing that the emperor remained silent, it seemed that he could not accept the words of the godfather.

The godfather just smiled.

He turned to speak: "You might as well guess why the inferior follow me?" ”

"Because you promised to protect him?"

"You underestimate me, Mr. Emperor. I'm not going to promise with that kind of nonsense. Since the inferior one chooses to follow me, I will naturally protect him. That's not a bargaining chip. ”

The godfather looked at the emperor with some disappointment.

For some reason, the emperor was a little afraid to look directly into the eyes of the godfather, a "criminal".

Obviously, he didn't do anything wrong or say anything wrong, but there was an indescribable and inexplicable weakness of heart that haunted the emperor...... It made him a little uneasy.

"You should know the origin of the inferior. He is a half-elf...... There is only one half-elf in this world. ”

The Godfather said slowly, "But you may not know that the Raider Elves are all wrapped in the shackles of 'fate'.

"The inferior is a tool from birth—the meaning of his existence, the end of his expectations by everyone, is to die.

"He can't be killed by his father, and he can't die from anyone or anything related to his father. On this basis, whether the inferior commits suicide or dies by accident, his father will be richly rewarded.

"He never had the love of his parents. His father and mother were looking forward to his death, and the sooner he did, the better—from the moment he was born until last month.

"He was educated because he was still useful until he died; He was sent to work in the Executive Department because it was the place where he was most likely to die in an accident.

"The media kept cursing and attacking him because his father wanted him to be under pressure and chose to die. That's how the kid grew up. There is only one thing he does, and that is to stay strong.

"He cursed everything, for there was only malice around him; He was always alone, as the directors longed to see his death, and anyone who came near him would be killed for it...... And in this case, he still chose to pursue justice. ”

The godfather looked at the emperor deeply: "And you think that he will only become such an 'inferior person' because of the 'rebellion and bad nature of the young psychic'?" ”

“……”

The emperor opened his mouth, but did not speak.

Because that's exactly what he once had about the inferior.

Not only has it been shown in books and interviews, but even in his talk shows, he often ridicules the inferior.

He actually wanted to say "I don't know" to defend himself, but on the one hand, the emperor felt that there was no need to say such things to his godfather...... Even if you want to apologize, you should apologize to the inferior person himself. But the emperor knew that the inferior never cared about this kind of thing.

"I know that you ordinary people are some of the highest-ranking people who look down on psionics."

The godfather said slowly: "After all, you can have your current status, which symbolizes that the 'blue shift' of reason is not low. Maybe the redshift won't be that low, but it's just that the psionic energy that belongs to you is already in the possession of others, so it didn't respond to your call.

"Psionics are just lucky...... You don't need wisdom, you don't need knowledge, you don't need strength, you don't need experience, you can get out of the bottom as long as your emotions fluctuate - why?

"yes, why? It is also an injustice, which you yourselves are aware of in your own hearts, but only manifest it in jealousy.

"There are ten people in the Hero Club on Happiness Island, but there are only two psykers. But the status of these two psionics is very different...... Like you, as the founder of the Hero Club, the 'Brilliant Diamond', the highest power to rule the club; And the Heavenly Send-off, who is also a high-ranking psyker, is the lowest level of the Hero Club and is alienated by everyone......"

“…… Heaven is also your people? Did he betray the company too? ”

As if he understood something, the emperor blurted out: "So after the situation of the inferior killing people in the street was filmed, you can find me here as soon as possible?" ”

But the godfather looked at him, but he only shook his head in disappointment: "No, I don't know Tiansheng at all, and I didn't come to you to take revenge on you." I'm just here to review your qualifications...... Now it seems that you are not qualified enough.

"Also, I'm different from you. I wouldn't call that person ...... 'inferior' by that insulting name, I gave him another name called 'Silence'.

"What are you kidding, although he is not a hero, he has also made many achievements. Give yourself such a self-deprecating title, and you really call him such a title?

"Admit it. Even if you are also a hero, you also hope that the glow of others will fall. When you hear the news of the fall of the inferior, you must be a little happy in your heart.

"I let him live for himself, so that he no longer has to be bound by 'fate'...... Let him be able to punish the people he hates, both uptown and downtown, both those with and without a code. I gave him freedom, I set him free.

"I made him a man. It's not just an animal born to be slaughtered.

"He was never after me, and he wasn't loyal to me...... I don't need his loyalty.

"For I am his godfather, not his master. I'm just a guru, a sage. He relieved the suffering of the people and guided them in the ......"

The godfather looked at the emperor and said word by word: "And you ...... was originally a hero of the people, but now he wants to be the master of the people.

"What do you do to shoot advertisements for profit and obey the directors to do the dirty work...... Those things have only stained your skin. Rinse with water and clean.

"Thinking of yourself as superior to others is where you really fall. That's what dirty your flesh and bones. ”

“…… Say, say so......"

Although he didn't say a few words, the emperor felt that his voice was a little hoarse.

He took a sip of water from his glass, only to feel his fingers tremble slightly.

Is it because I'm scared? No, I'm not afraid.

My blood pressure is also not elevated...... Why are my fingers shaking?

The emperor had such a question in his heart, but his tone still tried to remain calm: "Aren't you the same?

"You also think of yourself as above all else. You are also a dictator. ”

"That's why I never thought I was clean, Emperor."

The godfather smiled and said, "I'm a tyrant." I am the one who is wrong, I am the king of the lower city, and it is only right for me to do unrighteousness.

"I want to make people come to their senses, but I didn't say I want people to appreciate me. They only need to obey me, and they only need to fear me, as they fear the night.

"—You're old, Emperor."

The Godfather whispered, "You should have been able to figure it out. But now your eyes will only look at your own side. ”

“…… I am indeed old. I don't care what you want to do, all I want is to live my few days. I just want my children to grow up and start a family. I don't even care if she wants a child, if she continues her blood and life...... As long as she can have a good time and become an amazing person. ”

The emperor's words seemed to be begging for mercy and threatening.

But the godfather's words silenced him: "So, Mr. Emperor—do you want her to be happy or to be a great person?" ”

Seeing the emperor's silence, the godfather laughed: "You want it all." In other words, is it more important to make your daughter successful than to make her happy? ”

“…… If you don't succeed, how can you be happy? ”

The emperor sighed deeply: "If people only pay attention to the result, they will take shortcuts. But most of the shortcuts are dead ends, and you still have to return to the main road while walking.

"Without the support of money and talent, all happiness is short-lived and false."

"If you know this, you should know it...... The happiness that is sought from the directors is also not true happiness. ”

There was no murderous aura on the godfather's face, just a gentle smile, but his words were full of murderous intent: "Only the happiness that you have won is the happiness that you really hold in your hands."

"If misfortune is the destiny of these poor people, then I will smash it...... I want to give them courage and give them the strength to live.

"I want them to know that it is possible to live without being so lowly."

Hearing this, the emperor finally understood.

He knew why his hands were shaking.

He also knew why he couldn't be angry with the godfather anymore.

He...... is actually mourning each other. No, he's worshipping each other?

No, the exact way to say it should be ...... He was indeed longing for the vision he was talking about.

- He's a little nervous, too.

If it weren't for the fact that there was ice water that he couldn't put down, the emperor really didn't dare to touch such a dangerous thing, lest he would bring trouble to her because of his own reasons, and the godfather had already said that he would be moved at this moment.

When he was young, he also had such a dream - everyone can live together equally. No one is born to die, and no one is born to live.

Wrong, all wrong! The Godfather doesn't have any psychic powers to charm the mind!

Or rather, his own words, his essence, are enough to tempt a person's intellect......

But why don't such people go uptown?

…… Or rather, it's a good thing he's not in Uptown.

“…… But what do you say...... People can't understand what you're doing. They won't praise you, they won't worship you. ”

The emperor's words were somewhat staccato and particap: "People are stupid and short-sighted. They don't know anything, or even if they do, they turn a blind eye, so that's why we guide them......"

"Singers and idols need applause and applause."

The godfather whispered, "And I don't need ...... I don't need that anymore. ”

For some reason, the emperor felt that the godfather's face was complicated for a moment when he said this.

…… Why?

Could it be that the godfathers ...... Was he also a "singer" or an "idol"?

In the emperor's heart, such an absurd idea was born in an instant. But he quickly dispersed it.

"But if you do this, it will only be extremely painful. You can't afford it...... Heroes can't satisfy everyone, and neither can you. Sooner or later you will collapse because of pain, and your organization will break apart because of different desires. ”

The experience of the elders made the emperor see through the essence of what the godfather did in an instant.

He will do what is righteous in the name of the wicked, so that no one can reproach or hinder him.

But in this case, he will not have to fight against half of the world...... It's the whole world.

Even his side is not his ally. Rather, it is a pawn that he uses, a beast that he tames and can go crazy at any moment.

"I know, of course I know ......"

The godfather said softly and slowly got up from the sofa: "The 'godfather' has his limits to what he can do. One day, my subordinates will rebel.

"But I still have to push the pieces to that position. I want to detonate this thousand-year-old contradiction in my hands, in the safest way possible...... This is my responsibility, and the responsibility must be heavy, and the responsibility must be painful. There can be no joy at all.

"That's why I've done my best to reduce my responsibilities to the last one: to bring people to their senses. Only then will the mission of the 'godfather' come to an end.

"Look, Mr. Emperor. Please watch quietly and don't stop me...... If you don't want to support me, at least keep quiet.

"Silence is the simplest form of cooperation.

"The era of you heroes is coming to an end. My time is coming. ”

The godfather glanced deeply at the emperor, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, but there was no smile in his eyes.

He stretched out his hand and made a "silence" gesture to the emperor.

It was only then that the emperor suddenly realized...... Suddenly I couldn't hear anything.

He suddenly turned around and found that the inferior was standing behind him at some point.

He held a shotgun in one hand and a taser in the other.

At that moment, the emperor realized.

- If you decide to take action against the godfather, then you will be dead in that instant!

And at this moment the inferior raised the taser at himself - it could stun itself instantly, but it was not lethal.

The emperor finally saw clearly that what was behind him was not a "painful and confused manipulator". The inferior man's expression is incomparably natural, and his eyes are incomparably clear. The ability to silence everything around him also regained a gap in an instant. This apparently gave the emperor the opportunity to say a word.

Everything proves that he did it of his own will.

"Inferior, you ......"

There was a look of relief in the Emperor's eyes, but before he could finish his first sentence, he suddenly realized that he should not be called inferior by this title. Immediately after, his voice returned to the abyss of silence.

[I am not an inferior person, an inferior person is a good person who will never attack the innocent]

A deep voice sounded from the emperor's heart.

[Please silence me]

The next moment, the trigger was silently pulled, the shock clip ejected, and the old emperor was so silently electrocuted that he fainted.

And looking at all this, the corners of the godfather's mouth standing at the door rose slightly.

Another voice sounded from the silenced heart:

[——Welcome to the Tower of Babel, silence]

【My Pleasure】

Silence replied calmly.
