[Extra 116. Secretly assassinating Chen Cang (12)]
“Bang-bang!”
Several square meters of bricks on the ground separated automatically, revealing the solid concrete below and a ladder. Countless tiny vines climbed out along the ladder. Like eyes, they quickly wrapped around Morgana’s feet, then climbed up her calves and thighs.
A big hole appeared in the ground, the eerie cold wind came out, and the passage Morgana mentioned was opened.
“At that time, my body was stained with blood red, both fresh blood and dried clots. I stood in the ruins of the village in scarlet, maybe with fragments of human bones on my body. I used vines to strangle the corpse. Throw it down, the charred wood is smoking…”
Joyner glanced at the passage, imagining the horrific scene in her mind. “Then, Scarlet War Witch…that’s how you got this new name?”
“Yes, I like this title.” Morgana smiled faintly.
The other party answered lightly, which made Joyner’s expression stagnant.
“Those villagers gave you this name out of fear, don’t you think?”
“Who says otherwise?” Morgana smiled.
“I stood in front of the survivors in the ruins, looking down at them. No one dared to resist, and no one dared to expel me anymore. In order to survive, the remaining villagers knelt at my feet and prayed desperately to join me and let me Let them go. Others ran away in panic because of extreme fear. I didn’t continue to chase them, but let them go… because for me, the lesson I gave them was enough, and I felt that I had to let them go. Something has changed.”
Morgana stretched out her hand to signal Joyner to come to the entrance of the passage.
“What kind of change?” Joyner took a few steps forward and asked suppressing her emotions.
“Both in mind and body.”
“What changes have occurred in your thoughts?”
“When I stood in the ruins and saw those people from a high place, I had an illusion. I felt that those people had turned into white-robed bishops. , abbot, village elders, knights, commoners and slaves, I seemed to be giving an impassioned speech to them…
I was using fear to rule them in exchange for their will to surrender. I realized that what people are afraid of is just that. My power, and power does not distinguish between good and evil. But if I tear off the mask of hypocrisy and change my face, they will worship me and worship me like a god. This is so ironic…” “
You should. Do you know the feeling I’m talking about?” Morgana suddenly asked.
“I…why do I know?” Joyner was stunned, not knowing how to answer.
“I realized it at that moment.”
Morgana continued with a sneer, “Power is always secondary, and controlling people’s will is the king. I understood from the knowledge left by the ancients that that feeling is called Fanaticism for religion and belief – sugar for others, arsenic for me. Faith is born out of turmoil and conflict, and the temptation of faith is huge. It can turn people’s thoughts into power, and power into faith. As long as it is used properly, it may be able to free people from the pain and sins of the world.”
When she said these words, Morgana was still paying attention to Joyner’s reaction.
And, she seems to have found the answer.
When speaking of those words that only humans who had lived in pre-civilizations understood, Morgana found that Joyner reacted differently from other people of this era – there was no trace of confusion on her face.
She obviously knows that faith plays a powerful role in any era.
Turning your ideas into beliefs and letting people accept them, is this the transformation Morgana talks about?
Joyner felt at this time that these calm words sounded a bit awkward, but based on her personal experience, she actually agreed with it from the bottom of her heart.
Joyner thought of the homeless people she had rescued in the wilderness. They said one thing but thought another in their hearts. They even betrayed their saviors in exchange for a chance to survive.
Ugly human beings, ugly times!
⑧ЬOOк. СOмJoyna
understood what Morgana meant. Although she couldn’t say whether her intentions were good or bad, in this era of dehumanization and violence everywhere, perhaps as Morgana said, power can represent all ultimate desires. It can also be a means to eliminate ugliness.
Power is like a magnifying glass, illuminating the deepest ugliness and conscience in everyone’s heart.
“So after doing these things, your body has also changed?” Joyner asked after pondering for a moment.
“These lovely plants… I love them and I despise them. Because they have become my most loyal servants, my armor and weapons, and also my bad omen… They have taken away my right to walk. “
You can’t walk?”
Joyner turned her eyes to Morgana’s deformed feet. She finally understood why there were always tree roots under her feet.
It seemed like the plants were taking a very bad toll on Morgana’s body.
Morgana said, “My appearance is no different from that of a normal person, but my body will bleed white blood, and my feet will gradually become unable to walk, as if they are petrified. This is a hidden disease.” Joey
. Na suddenly said, “No, you lied to me!”
“I lied to you?”
Joyner thought for a moment and said in a cold voice, “You were clearly able to move before, but in the wilderness that night, you used these plants to attack me. Move so fast that I can’t catch you.”
Joyner recalled that when she was caught by the thugs, she couldn’t break free because her legs were entangled in plant roots.
Thinking about it now, Morgana had been following her and monitoring her, probably since she first entered Hidden Sand Castle.
Morgana did this to capture Joyner.
But who knows what her true purpose is?
“Hehehe – I don’t have to lie to you, just listen to what I have to say.” Morgana’s laughter contained a hint of evil.
“Although I can control plants, they also affect me in turn. Believe it or not, my physical activities are inseparable from them. Since I lost the ability to walk, the plants have become my legs. Under my command, they can take me as fast as flying, or they can burrow into the ground. “
That’s it! Joyner suddenly understood.
“Every gain comes with a loss, right? I’m a mutant, that’s just my special ability. In order to cope with this cruel world without laws,” Morgana changed the topic and asked, “Isn’t your body the same? Is it the same?”
Joyner was stunned for a moment, speechless.
It seems that Morgana also noticed that Joyner’s body was different, or in other words, she noticed the similarities between the two.
Joyner was lost in thought.
The question is, where did Morgana’s inhuman abilities come from? Is he really “gifted” as she said?
“Go ahead, I’ll wait for you here.”
Morgana winked at Joyner and said calmly, “When you come back, I will explain to you about the test.”
“Huh, I haven’t said that yet. I promise.”
“I can wait.” Morgana shrugged.
