Sword and Magic and Taxi

Don't worry, I won't control your thoughts or disrupt your brain, let alone touch your memory, because I think that is the most important part of a person's life. Zhao Mai smiled at Piero, who also Trying to smile. He now began to have a new understanding, that is, those who can sit down and face the danger of life and death, still use their professional abilities as reporters, and finally win major journalism awards are not ordinary people.

Your Majesty the Dragon King, you are obviously a powerful superhuman, or do you prefer the term superhuman? Piero tried his best to keep his voice steady and neutral, his mood friendly and cordial, and slowly adjusted his thoughts and asked questions : You are very powerful, the army, at least for now, it seems that it is not your opponent. In this case, how can I trust that you will not turn me into a bug or modify my memory?

Unfortunately, you can never really be sure of that. One of the best traits of human beings is to doubt everything. Start by not believing in yourself, and then slowly doubt the things around you, until you slowly form a methodology and establish your own worldview. That's a bit far-fetched, and there's nothing I can do about your problem. And to be honest, it doesn't mean much to me whether I can build trust in this area - I have more important things to focus on.

Then this involves purpose. I think people all over the world, especially the people in Italy now. Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, why did you launch an attack?

Because I was shelled twice. Zhao Mai raised two fingers and said slowly: Colonel Steele mistakenly thought that the thick fog and the monsters inside were released by me to attack the town, so he shelled me once. What happened After explaining, everyone knew that someone in the Superpower Village had stolen the hospital, which was the cause of the incident, so we asked them to leave. I didn't want to cause any more conflicts, so I stayed hidden for a long time. Then a second incident happened. A bombardment, so this satisfied the bet and I could take action - you saw what happened next.

I heard you mentioned the bet, was it with former Colonel Steele? Piero was busy writing down notes while organizing his questions.

Of course not, Colonel Steele is not qualified enough to bet with me. Now that he had started to play the villain, Zhao Mai started to make nonsense. This was one of his daily entertainment activities before he had superhuman powers. He imitated various villains and monsters in role-playing games and fought against various heroes played by his good friends. Of course, there are also times when he plays the good guy and lets his friends play the villain. He raised his hand and pointed at the sky: There are many superpowers, but those who reach my level are very rare. There are only a few. The observer, the Death Star above my head, and I once reached an agreement. Agreement to resolve some of our philosophical differences.

We are all studying human beings, including people with superpowers. We all want to explore the true source of power. Zhao Mai could easily pull out a hundred reasons to become a big devil, and pick one of them that was a little more tall. It can deceive people: We all agree that crisis will make people burst out with strength, but there is no consensus on what kind of crisis state is more effective. It believes that power comes from chaos, and only by completely liberating people's wild impulses and increasing all kinds of If the possibility arises, mutations that can produce powerful power will suddenly appear.

Piero nodded, and then his heart thumped. The Observer Death Star is the other party to the bet, and sitting in front of him is the Dragon King, a being who can crush him to death with one finger. If he agrees with his opponent's thoughts, that's not neutral enough! So Piero quickly made up for it and said: It sounds reasonable, but there seems to be something imperfect. I think you must have other ideas.

Of course! Zhao Mai's eyebrows were beaming, like a paranoid who has discovered a good audience. Strength should come from order, set common goals, and use collective wisdom. Unity is strength! A state of chaos will only aggravate internal friction. Do you think I am right?

I agree with you. Piero quickly agreed. He paused and pointed to the Death Star above his head: You two had differences, so you made a bet?

Well, yes. Zhao Mai continued to talk nonsense: First, the Death Star was tested first - I think he didn't have much confidence in himself, so he let it go. As you can see, it was chaos, but nothing special. Something worth bragging about happened. We made an agreement in the bet that the experiment must not continue endlessly, so we set a condition. I can observe all this on the earth. If I am affected by chaos and suffer an attack, , then it’s my turn. It should be easy for you to understand, because if a person with my level of power is involved in the experiment by chaos and the state is broken, it means that the experiment cannot continue.

In other words, all this happened because of a bet?

Yeah, it's that simple. Zhao Mai raised his eyebrows and said, You should have done your homework and know that I was once the chief templar of Wakanda and one of the shareholders of LEX Group. I had a good life originally. , but someone wanted to drive us out of office. I usually don’t like trouble and fights, so I gave in, looked around, walked around, and studied humanities, philosophy, and so on. I don’t lack much in terms of strength. , there are various means, but I don’t quite understand some issues, which hinders my progress. Having such a bet is actually a good opportunity, and judging from the current situation, everything is going smoothly. The chaos is quickly ending , order is gradually being restored. What do you think of the city of Naples now? Is it much more stable than when Colonel Steele was there?

There has been great progress, at least you can no longer hear the sound of gunfire. Piero then asked: Whether it is good or bad, you have actually occupied the city of Naples, and the area of ​​control is gradually expanding. So, One has to ask: How are you going to govern these areas?

Ruling? Oh no. Zhao Mai waved his hand and said, I have no interest in ruling. I already figured it out when I was the chief templar. I just hope to establish a new order. To put it simply, Regardless of national boundaries, nationality, color, gender, everyone only needs to think about one thing: how can I win and the Observer Death Star lose?

But there are many things in people's lives that need attention, and they can't all think about the same thing.

I will provide food to prevent people from starving to death, I will eliminate all weapons to prevent war, and I will provide space and time to think. Either I am right, or the Death Star is right, before the winner is decided. It will definitely not end. Zhao Mai put on a particularly weird smile on his face and said: During the previous experiments on the Death Star, humans and superpowers had too many ideas, too complicated, and too messy. Accurate! I just want to prove that I am right, I just want me to succeed, I just want the Death Star to fail, it’s that simple. That bastard still hasn’t given up, a bastard who can’t afford to lose. If he doesn’t turn off the weakening curse light, I will I won’t stop. Every corner of this planet is ultimately mine and will be under my order.”

This is a bet in the name of blood. Zhao Mai finally said.
