Chapter 245: Echoes of Sadness

You're aware of it too soon, Ah Zheng.

The intention of this "vacation" is to give you and your brother real contact with the real world of the outside world.

Let you understand how complex and changeable a world full of living people is.

People's hearts are changeable, and so are the hearts of people.

People who live in poverty have simple kindness, but they also reciprocate with direct jealousy and malice after their peers get the opportunity to soar.

The people you've helped will thank you in return, but when you're about to touch their interests, those thanks will turn to ashes in an instant.

Understanding these things is this "vacation", people's expectations of Bai Tangzheng and Bai Tangchou.

The highest expectations for the offspring of two "world's strongest".

For two children around the age of ten, this is already an over-the-top goal.

Even so over-the-top that Sam frowned.

But now......

Bai Tangzheng, this little kid used his God-given sensitivity and wisdom to surpass the set goal in one step and go straight to the roots.

This completely exceeded all expectations.

He noticed it too early.

Sam stood behind Bai Tangzheng, the army-green exoskeleton and inorganic sheen that made him look like a silent statue.

He looked silently at the child in front of him, silent.

Bai Tangzheng is estimated to be the strongest ten-year-old child in the world.

His talent is unparalleled and his character is carefully cultivated.

He is the undisputed heir to the world's strongest first line.

He should have understood the world step by step under the most meticulous planning.

Until he grows into adulthood, the three views have reached stability, and it is logical that he has enough power to overlook the world and a majesty that no one can question.

Only then should he look directly at the deepest darkness and malice of this worldβ€”

The pouring of life and life!

And now, in the face of this child's insight beyond age planning, Sam can't do anything.

Can only stand there in vain.

Looking at Bai Tangzheng's self-pity, looking at Bai Tangzheng felt the ruthlessness and coldness that filled the boundless night.

Like the bones in front of him, like a wounded young beast, whimpering and curling up in a ball.

The kind and sensitive child perceives the malice of the world and struggles helplessly in this sea of malice.

But fortunately, there is still a person in this world who is qualified and capable to stand up at this time...... Dispel all malice!

~~~~~~

Bai Tangzheng's sorrow is so great.

It is even unimaginable to all those who are familiar with him that an optimist, a child who never holds grudges and never remembers things, would burst out with such a level of sorrow.

The sad emotions are like echoes, through the connection of internal forces, through the link of blood.

The geographical barrier is like nothing, and it has been passed on to all the relatives of Bai Tangzheng.

......

In the Night City of North America.

Under the colorful neon-polluted sky, a white-haired child with bright tattoos on his two arms suddenly raised his head.

This is the territory of the Six Street Gang, the territory of a group of nostalgic people who are nostalgic for the glory of the former United States.

They persevered in the torrent of the times, and then they were suppressed, corrupted, and alienated.

In the end, a group of idealistic soldiers turned into a gang with no bottom line and no characteristics.

Now, the main combatant of the gang has been slaughtered in the alley by blocking a child's walk.

The sky divided by tall buildings was narrow like a gap, and the red flowers of flesh and blood were mixed with the electric sparks of the prosthetic short circuit.

The slaughter of them would not leave a little trouble in Bai Tang's heart.

Because they are a bunch of scum who do all kinds of evil.

The young fingers stopped as they were about to touch the head of a prosthetic modified human.

Bai Tang's melancholy expression suddenly froze.

The transformer had seen it himself in front of this finger, and the top prosthetic body on the market was as soft as a marshmallow.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he ran away on all fours with his wet pants in his hands.

Then, when he reached the exit of the alley with hope on his face, a large pale purple hand crumpled his whole body into minced meat.

The hideous Wu Lei'an came out of the shadows with a playful expression.

"Hey, hey, isn't it? This kind of role can also be missed? To this extent, I also want to dominate Wu Zhi'......"

"Shut up."

There are no polite politeness and tact, but direct commands.

With Wu Lei'an's unruly temperament, he should have exploded immediately, but when his gaze touched the eyes of the white-haired imp, all the anger was like a cloud in the sky.

Incomparably majestic, incomparably hot..... That look actually made Wu Lei'an can't help but think of someone.

Someone who was enough to shut him up quietly.

Therefore, he frowned and looked deeply at the white-haired imp in front of him, and said no more.

Bai Tangchou, on the other hand, was unconscious, holding his heart with his palms, feeling the grief and convulsions that penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

It was as if the eyes had passed through all the obstacles and looked into the void.

distressed, angry, puzzled...... There is also a trace of persistence in not admitting defeat.

"Xiaozheng? He's ...... Comprehended 'sorrow'. ”

......

On the African continent, next to that little ruin.

The sound of "stampeding" footsteps appeared out of thin air.

The voice is very soft, but it inexplicably has the ability to make all other voices become a foil.

Sam, who had been tensing his body to the limit, seemed to have expected it, and naturally turned sideways to get out of the way.

His expression relaxed, as if at this moment, all problems would no longer be a problem in the face of this footfoot.

Sam's elbow was even back on the hilt.

"This kid ...... The impact was great and needed to be enlightened. ”

Sam whispered.

A tall, majestic figure, glowing with a blue-purple glow, walked straight in front of Sam.

It wasn't a flesh and blood body...... It was an energy body that was purely controlled by the spirit!

No! Able to manipulate energy, so fine at such a distance. That's not a "spirit", it's almost a "spirit"!

"yes, I know."

The vibration of the energy body makes the sound ethereal and distant.

It is a white hall mirror.

He was like an ordinary person without any strength, and walked to Bai Tangzheng, who was curled up, with simple steps.

sat on the ground beside him.

The most powerful, noble, and immortal human being in the world sits atop this small ruin.

Bai Tangjing looked at the sad and helpless child in front of him.

It was his child, his proud and confident heir.

As a child, he was like an ordinary person who suddenly saw the truth of the world.

The eyes that did not know the world saw through a gap in the darkness and pain that pervaded the world, and those darkness and pain also found him.

So they rushed over as if they had come to life, entangled him with death, and could not be freed.

...... It's like, Xiaozheng.

Bai Tangjing's heart was sighing, and his resolute face softened at this time.

You're just like me when I was eight years old, aren't you?

We are weak and ignorant, but what we face is terrifying and profound.

The young body seems to be about to make a bloody confrontation with the whole world, until death.

Is it scary? It's scary.

My hair was shaking with fear! Shivering like a dog in the water.

But I survived.

And now it seems that it is doing well in this confrontation.

But...... What about you?

Bai Tangjing's eyes were as deep as a whirlpool, looking at the black-haired child motionlessly.

You have used your acumen and wisdom to break through the growth path that has been analyzed, confirmed and planned countless times by countless wise people.

Terrific!

There is no doubt that you deserve a more challenging education and a more horizon-opening experience.

It seems that I should let go and let you see more darkness and tragedy, and then gain a more resilient will and soul.

It seems like I should just put you here, watch you struggle with confusion and pain, and then step through the obstacles and grow through my own spirit.

That's how it should be.

That's how the growth of the strong should be!

I need an heir who can help me! is an unquestionable powerhouse!

The weak don't even deserve to be looked at by me!

It seems like it should be like this......

No one can comment on Bai Tangjing's educational policy.

Hinomoto, and everyone in the whole world hopes that the heir of Hakudo Mirror is a strong man worthy of this name.

Undeniably powerful, unmistakably majestic!

Suppress this increasingly mad world with absolute power!

So it seems like it should be......

Bai Tangjing stretched out his hand without hesitation and lifted up the dirty little ghost on the ground who was hugging his head and crying.

And then on top of this little ruin, in front of the grief-stricken corpses of Rodin and his mother-in-law......

Hold Bai Tangzheng's young body into his arms!

He was distressed, and he was angry.

Any father would be angry when he sees his son put on such a hopeless appearance.

Especially when the son drilled the horns of the bull and tortured himself!

Especially...... The difficulties faced by the son were nothing in front of him, who was a father!

I! Go! You! Mother! Target! Grow!

Yes, Bai Tangjing's strength is inseparable from his madness and hysteria since he was eight years old.

It can even be said that it is the beginning of the power.

But he would never accept it, in order to make the heir stronger, he would exert the same feelings on Bai Tangzheng's body as he did at that time!

The "father" identity is not for this.

Definitely not!

If there is a need for white righteousness, or white sorrow, rely on this level of grief to become strong.

Then he Baitang Mirror, even the two of them together, become stronger!

There is no room for "limits"! He doesn't admit to the "limit"!

He's strong now, very strong, and he can be stronger than he is now! A hundred times stronger! A thousand times!

These two boys, as long as they live according to their own wishes, it is enough!

Under the undoubted embrace, he didn't say anything, Bai Tangzheng's stiff and curled up body had already relaxed the moment he was hugged into Bai Tangjing's arms.

Obviously, the last hug with his father was not far away, but Bai Tangzheng felt that it had been a long time.

It was his relatives, his teachers, the people who shaped his soul, his ...... Father.

Slowly, Bai Tangzheng's young arms wrapped around Bai Tangjing's neck, and his head was tilted on his shoulders.

It's like an ordinary ten-year-old.

"Why, Daddy?"

The child's tears were flowing.

"Rodin is dead! His mother-in-law is dead, too! So painful, so sad, but so happy. ”

"How many people else will experience this kind of pain? They didn't do anything wrong at all, did they? Why is their life so hard and so painful? ”

Bai Tangjing didn't answer, just gently patted Bai Tangzheng's back with his palm.

Until the child's sobbing gradually stops and the breathing returns to a smooth time.

The blue-purple eyes were also looking at Rodin and his mother-in-law who were hugging each other.

"The world is cruel, the world is dark, and humans are like that, it has been going on for tens of thousands of years, hurting each other, killing each other......"

"I think I should tell you that, Xiaozheng."

The little hand holding Bai Tangjing couldn't help but tighten, and Bai Tangzheng was very nervous now.

"But I refuse."

Bai Tang raised his head solemnly and looked at his blue-purple father.

"Those things, those words, are rubbish to me! Shit! ”

Bai Tangjing said categorically.

"Remember the superhero movies we watched together? You say to me, 'This movie is stupid, the main character has super power and is just focused on a robbery or theft in the street, and then says that's justice'...... You're right, Xiaozheng. ”

"It also shows that I taught you well. You understood then that the world is not a vacuum without the reality of 'power' and 'power'. People with power and power do nothing to have a profound impact on the world. ”

"Can push the planet's superman to the streets to stop a robbery? In the next second, the proposal for the development of a planet-level kryptonite defense system will be placed in the lead chamber of the United Nations! ”

Bai Tangjing looked at Bai Tangzheng's little face seriously.

"The world can be influenced, Xiaozheng!"

"It's never 'it should have been', 'it always has been'! It's always been shaped like this, and being strong enough to influence it as a matter of course! And even harness it! ”

"And now, there's only one question left......" Bai Tangjing looked directly into Bai Tangzheng's eyes.

"Do you want me to change the world, or do you want to change the world with your own hands?"

"If you choose to change the world with your own hands, then you ...... Is it strong enough? ”

......

Bai Tang was leaving the ruins, and he continued to bear the sorrow, but only in the bottom of his heart.

No more doubts, no more hesitations.

In the eyes of Bai Tangjing and Sam, this dirty little imp at this time was more radiant than the previous ten years.

"You...... What did you say to Ah Zheng......"

Sam squirmed his lips and looked hesitantly at the white hall mirror in the state of the energy body.

Change the world, say it lightly and casually. But what about the connotation behind it?

The sad land of Africa has endured untold suffering.

But now it is the penal colony of careerists among all the strong.

It is the trash can of the world.

Letting Bai Tang do something means ...... Declare war on the whole world, on all ambitious Behemoth powerhouses and forces!

Kill all of them without even the last "trash can"!

Is it really good to do that?

"Sam."

Bai Tangjing's voice interrupted Sam's thoughts as if it had seen through his thoughts.

"It was I who shaped Xiaozheng's character and soul."

"I taught him to be upright, to be kind, to do what is right, to have hope, to give trust...... And then the world stabbed the little man I had made. ”

At night, there would occasionally be a cold wind blowing in the slums, just as cold as the sound of Bai Tangjing at this time.

"The reality is that there are very few noble and brave people, the reality is that people will do things more terrible than beasts for profit and enjoyment, and the reality is that people are afraid of power but not virtuous, and they don't remember to eat!"

"Of course this reality will stab Xiaozheng, of course."

"I regret a little that I made Xiaozheng such a healthy person. But at the same time, I am proud of his integrity and kindness. ”

Sam listened to Bai Tangjing's soft voice, but he couldn't relax at all.

On the contrary, I only feel that the sky is about to fall in the whole of Africa.

"My son wants to fight and fight for what is right, Sam."

The blue-purple energy form gradually dissipated, and until the end, Bai Tangjing's eyes did not waver in the slightest.

"Then how could I ...... What about rejecting him? ”
