The Throne of Heroes

Chapter 23 What is Adam?

On the other side, in Steve and Peggy's room, Steve tossed and turned, but couldn't fall asleep, and finally had no choice but to get up.

Peggy was also unable to sleep. She sat beside Steve and asked softly, "Are you still thinking about the day's affairs?"

"Yes, he is my father. I should believe him. This is the second time, but..." Steve felt pain in his heart, and the lonely back of Adam when he left during the day hurt deeply. with his heart.

"I understand, I understand..." Peggy hugged Steve and patted him on the back lightly.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Steve, are you asleep?" Bucky's voice came from outside the door.

"Not yet." Steve got up to open the door, and Peggy picked up the coat next to her and put it on her body.

Steve opened the door and saw not only Bucky alone, but also Howard and Abraham.

"Why are you here?" Steve asked.

"I don't think you can sleep, I think we should talk, Steve." Bucky said seriously.

"Yes, we really should talk, come in." Steve stepped aside, Bucky and the three entered the room, Steve closed the door, and sat down beside Peggy.

"Steve, I don't think we should do this to Uncle Adam." Bucky spoke first.

"I think so too. Although the scene during the day definitely scares me, I don't think Adam is a bad guy, he...is a good guy." Howard agreed, he didn't know how to describe Adam, he could only say "good guy "To summarize.

"I know, it's just me..." Steve's face was a little painful, and he hesitated to speak.

"Gentlemen, Peggy, I think, before discussing this issue, I would like to ask you a question, do you really understand Adam?" Abraham was the most sensible of all, and he immediately asked the core of the question.

"I..." Steve was about to speak, but he froze. He found that he didn't seem to understand Adam at all, or his adoptive father who raised him and took good care of him.

"This question, I think, only Lord Tristan and Lord Mordred can answer it for us?" Abraham said, looking at the air behind Steve and Bucky.

"Tristan!"

"Little Mo!"

As soon as the words fell, Tristan and Mordred lifted their spiritualization and appeared in front of everyone.

"Ah, it's really sad, Master, you are the bravest and kindest human being I have ever met, and I can understand why Adam cares about you so much. But I have to say, you really Don't know him at all." There was sadness in Tristan's tone, not a catchy joke.

"That's right, Master, Steve, during the day when I saw that you guys were starting to fear and fear Adam, I couldn't help but hack Master directly to terminate the contract." Mordred said, his expression not at all. Like a joke.

"Isn't it? Xiao Mo, are you so ruthless?" Bucky trembled all over, and looked at Mordred sadly.

"Of course, what do you think?" Mordred said, glancing at Bucky.

"Can you tell us? About Dad." Steve asked softly.

"What you want to know is why Adam has such a contrasting two sides?" Tristan asked Steve back.

"...Yes." Steve nodded with some difficulty.

"Because of hatred." Mordred answered the question without hesitation.

"Hate?" Everyone was surprised.

"That's right, the hatred for the Demon God Pillar is also the hatred for all enemies." Mordred said, but at the same time, her and Tristan's faces also showed resentment.

"The Demon God Pillar...is it really that hateful?" Steve asked subconsciously, but when he saw Mordred and Tristan's expressions suddenly turned cold, he immediately explained: "Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that, I meant to say , why dad has such a strong hatred."

"..." The two were silent. After a long time, Tristan sighed and began to explain the reason.

"As you already know, our world was destroyed by the 72 demon pillars, and the only thing left is the incomplete world root and the throne of heroes preserved by the mother of the world, Gaia, and the suppression force Alaya.

And Adam was born on the Throne of the Heroic Spirits, the destined co-lord of our Heroic Spirits, the heir to the root of the world, and the only hope for reshaping our world. said Tristan.

"Yes, we all know that, but..."

Before Steve could finish, Mordred interrupted him.

"What Adam inherited was not only the root of the world, but also... all the... negative emotions... when the world was broken..." Mordred gritted his teeth and said this sentence, and couldn't bear to close his mouth eyes.

"All... negative emotions!" Everyone's faces turned pale when they heard this.

"Wait a minute, I hope I heard wrong, is it the... negative emotions of the whole world?" Howard reconfirmed with horror on his face.

"Yes, you heard that right." Tristan nodded for confirmation.

"Damn... how is it possible!? He! Alone! Bearing the whole world!" Howard held his head, feeling his thoughts were unprecedentedly crazy.

"Yes, despair, anger, sadness, resentment, hatred... All the negative emotions that people in our world have at the moment before the world is broken and passed away are all inherited by Adam alone." Tristan said Say it word by word.

"But! This! How can..."

"So, Adam has been suffering from this kind of torture since he was a baby, until now, for tens of thousands of years. Although after tens of thousands of years of hard work, more than half of it has been purified, but it is still..." Modley De's tone was full of sadness.

All of their heroic spirits watched Adam grow up and accompanied him to the present. When Adam was a child, the despair and pain are still vivid in his mind.

If Gaia and Alaya were not taken care of at that time, without the existence of heroic spirits like them, then Adam would only have two results.

One is collapse, complete dissipation into nothingness.

The second is to achieve a monster that is more terrifying than the 72 demon pillars.

Whenever Adam was in pain and was about to be tortured crazy, they would try their best to comfort him and accompany him in order to reduce his pain, and even wished to share it for him.

But no one can do it, only Adam bears it alone.

Not only that, but when he can endure this torture, he has to concentrate on learning all kinds of knowledge from the heroic spirits, and constantly strengthen himself to complete his mission.

If it weren't for Adam's strong and tenacious mind, how could every proud heroic spirit on the Throne of Heroic Spirits agree with him as the co-lord.

"Dad...how did he purify those negative emotions? Can we..."

"No." Mordred interrupted Steve again, "If someone else can help, will we watch without doing anything?"

"There is only one way to purify these negative emotions, and that is to enter the soul storm full of resentment, start a dialogue with each of them, and appease their resentment." Tristan said.

There was no trace of blood on everyone's faces.

Although they have not experienced it, they can all imagine that while enduring the torture, not only did they not stay away, but rushed to the center, patiently persuading the manic souls one by one.

How cruel this is, cruel to oneself.

"The gentle, calm, and even naughty and playful Adam you know is the good side he wants to show to others, and it is also a means to suppress his manic emotions." Mordred said.

"It turns out... Dad..." Steve clenched his fists tightly, his nails dug into his flesh, and his tears couldn't stop streaming down.

Peggy leaned tightly into Steve's arms, holding his fist, while Bucky, Howard and Abraham all lowered their heads with shame and self-blame on their faces.

"Mordred, Tristan, I have to apologize to my father tomorrow, can you help me?" Steve sincerely asked Mordred.

"And I."

"I also want to apologize to Adam."

"I should also say sorry to my father-in-law."

"Do you think you need our help?" Mordred smiled again after seeing the attitudes of several people.

Everyone was taken aback, and then laughed.

"unnecessary."

……

When Steve and the others were getting to know Adam, two light curtains were appearing in Gu Yi's room. One was Adam's dialogue with Loki and Odin on the terrace, and the other was showing the It is the picture in Steve's room.

"Do you have any questions now? Modu." Gu Yi asked with a smile as he removed the two light curtains with a wave of his hand.

"I'm sorry, teacher, I'm too narrow-minded. Your Excellency Adam is an admirable person." Modu bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

Mordred has always been hostile to Adam since Mordred showed amazing but very irritable magic power when he was fighting Thor during the day, and Adam was fierce to Thor and others.

He believes that such an existence is a serious threat to their world. Although he has not shown it now, he believes that one day they will go berserk, and it will be a devastating disaster to their world.

Modu also heard from Gu Yi that if Gu Yi and Odin join forces, they can expel Adam from this world, but in the end, one of them died and the other was seriously injured.

But seeing Adam's performance today, Modu firmly believed that no matter how high the price was, Adam must be expelled, even if he sacrificed his own life.

But just now, all his doubts were dispelled. An existence with such a tough mind and the ability to endure such torture would not do anything that would endanger the world.

Moreover, profound knowledge and powerful force are also their most powerful allies in protecting the world.

"Mo Du, do you know where your problem is?" Gu Yi asked.

"Also ask the teacher for advice." Mo Du humbly asked for advice.

"You are too stubborn and don't know how to be flexible. In your view, all negative forces related to darkness and rage are threats. All people who come into contact with these forces will degenerate, but you ignore the "human" race. The possibility of oneself also ignores the power of the mind." Gu Yi taught.

Gu had discovered the problem of Modu a long time ago. He was too stubborn. If he did not make changes, then in the future she saw, Modu would become what he hated the most and become the enemy of the world.

Because as Modu's most respected teacher, Gu Yi himself was secretly absorbing and transforming the dark energy of the dark latitude for his own use.

If this secret is discovered by Modu, it will be a devastating blow to Modu.

But she has never had a good chance to wake up Modu, and today, she found that the opportunity has come.

"But teacher, you taught me that the existence of a mage is to follow the order and protect the order. If someone destroys the order, more people will follow suit. If everyone does this, then what order is there?" Modu was puzzled.

"This is what distinguishes everyone. Some people will fall, while some people can persevere and control this power.

There is a saying I like very much, I wonder if you have heard it? "

"What?"

"The night gave me black eyes, and I used them to find the light."

"The night... gave me... black eyes... use it to... find the light..." Mo Du was stunned, his whole body was immersed in these words, his eyes were sometimes confused, sometimes struggling, after a long time, Only then was Qingming restored.

"I was wrong, teacher." Mo Du realized, he understood that power will only be power in the end, the important thing is the person who uses him, the heart is bright, and the light is there.

"Okay, now that you have realized it, from tomorrow onwards, you and Wang will join their training together. Compared with them, you are now a bit behind." Gu Yi said.

"No problem, teacher, we won't lose Kama Taj's face." Modu smiled, his white teeth contrasted sharply with his pitch-black face.
