15. Valkyrie
Number 17 is inactive in the sun.
When he was only the size of a palm, he had already been found by the White Lions Society.
His memories of that time are almost all from the perspective of a spectator, he can't understand the outside world and others at that time, no matter how many experiments they do on him, everything is meaningless, and the only thing he has is instinct.
The instinct to shapeshift, and the hunger and thirst that is rooted in the depths of the soul.
The first time he felt emotion was when he saw the pink jelly-like brain tissue.
He felt hunger, he felt desire, he felt that he wanted that thing.
So he opened his mouth and feasted, but the group immediately stopped him, he only ate less than a quarter of his brain, and the fragments of memory could not even be connected in strings, only emotions kept nurturing in his body.
The second emotion he perceives is anger, the third is unwillingness, and the fourth is resentment. The fifth is fear, and the sixth is despair.
After he began to think like a human, he first wanted to kill all the people who had imprisoned him, and then he longed for freedom.
Although he didn't know what kind of species he was, he knew that he was definitely higher than humans, and with some memories of one of the members, he initially thought it was entirely possible for him to escape from there.
And yet he was wrong, very wrong.
All the disguises and stratagems were like a joke, they knew themselves better than he did, and all the efforts were useless.
It's like a bug that sees the moon and thinks that if you pay enough attention, you will be able to jump on it one day.
He resigned himself to his fate, and his life would only be an experiment.
He had even given up thinking and spent his days like a stone, even when the needle was inserted into his body and the blade of the knife cut the flesh, he completely ignored it.
Until he saw the light.
That's his God.
The clouds and mist rushed in, the thunder and lightning flickered, and the Valkyrie, dressed in a silver helmet, a blood-red robe, with the feathers of a divine bird pinned to her head, rode a white horse that brought frost and morning dew, and held a spear and shield forged by light, and easily tore apart the entire chapter.
She didn't even glance at Number 17, and she didn't care about the little creature that had been freed by herself, and went straight to cell 1, freeing the monster that even the guys didn't dare to wake up.
Angry because he was woken up, No. 1 turned into a dragon, smashing the ground, sometimes turning into an elf, whining out the wind, sometimes like a demon god, summoning magma.
However, it didn't stop the Valkyrie from being pierced through the head by the light spear in her hand for a moment, which became another trophy for her.
Number 17 got what he wanted most, freedom.
And now he has a new goal, to see his goddess again.
Escaping from prison, No. 17 no longer has to suppress his desires, and soon disembowels a giant bear to enjoy the food that belongs to their family.
He could remember his mother's first milk, the first time she fished, the first time she bypassed the hunter, the first time she fought another bear, the first time she mated.
He was the bear, and his happiness almost overwhelmed Number 17, but it didn't taste like another creature, the one that had imprisoned him for decades.
Mankind.
However, I don't know if it was lucky or unfortunate for him, the first human he ate was so special.
Seeing Rebecca's smile for the first time, holding hands with her, kissing her lightly, separating from her lover, holding a sword, killing the first person, falling, quitting, slowly understanding the weight of life, returning home, eloping, making love, seeing the child's smile, gradually understanding responsibility, quarreling, reconciliation, and knowing the meaning of love.
At this moment he is Ogden, and he has inherited everything from Ogden, all the love and hate, and Ogden's strong willpower.
It was also the first time he thought of stopping, as long as he didn't eat other people's brains, maybe he could be just Ogden forever, able to live like an ordinary person, and live happily.
But they came again, like a haunting ghost, and he did kill many of their people, but he did not have time to eat their brains.
It was a lucky thing that he was able to live alone with Ogden and forget that he was a monster.
It was unfortunate, and he didn't know how they had found him.
Fortunately, he still has a way, he knows that there is a place that even the White Lions are not willing to set foot in, and that is the capital of this kingdom, Wharton.
But he had to go immediately, he killed Peter, and Nathan probably thought that Herwin had done it now, so he wouldn't come to them, and even if he did, Ogden would have the confidence to kill him.
But Hewen is different, he doesn't know if Hewen knows his identity, but staying in front of him for a second longer increases the risk of being exposed a little more.
He just wants a happy and peaceful life, like a human being, can't he do that?
Ogden Road:
"What are you talking about? Are you crazy?"
Nelly looked at Hara:
"Did Herwin give you something so that others would like you and not have the idea of attacking you?"
Hola paused, then nodded.
"So the father who can ignore the mysterious objects, are you really our original father?"
Rebecca couldn't believe it:
"Ogden, is she telling the truth?"
Number 17 was silent.
Rebecca gritted her teeth and shouted:
"What do you say?"
Ogden first smiled at Nelly:
"If you weren't that smart, we'd probably be happy at Wharton for the rest of our lives, my love for you is real, and what I just said was from the bottom of my heart, but I'm not your original father, but then again, it's my Nelly who is so smart. ”
Ogden looked at his wife affectionately and replied:
"There is no difference between me and your original husband, my love for you, my love for my children, and every minute and second you spend are engraved in my brain, and I feel the same for every hardship you have experienced together, I am him!"
Rebecca bit her lip.
Ogden continued:
"If you want, I know a friend who can modify the memory, and we can live happily as a family, if you don't want to ......"
Ogden closed his eyes and took a deep breath:
"I will turn away, I will not be able to hurt any of my family, but in my future, I may fall and want to kill you again. You're going to flee to a place I couldn't have found or thought of. ”
Rebecca asked:
"Where's my old husband?"
Ogden's face was pained, the last thing he wanted:
"He died, I killed him and ate his brain, but I can atone for his sins......"
Jimmy sat on the ground, his eyes blank, and he kept muttering something.
Rebecca says:
"Shut up and prove it to me, since you love me as much as he does, then prove your love for me. ”
Rebecca smashed the glass cabinet containing the axe with her hand, the glass shards seeped into her white skin, blood covered half of her palm, and the woman gently lifted the axe.
The axe was also like a living being, emitting an evil and strange red light, as if it was excited to take another life.
"Prove it to me, if you are almost like him, then if I kill you to avenge him, you will not fight back, right?"
Number 17 closed his eyes.
