Chapter nine hundred and eighty eighth great father
It was not the first time for Salomon to be called his father.
When he takes a break from official duties to travel to war-torn places such as Iran, Syria, and Afghanistan, he often disguises himself as a teacher, doctor, or traveler, using methods consistent with his current identity to realize those things that have been torn apart by the war.
He has delivered children, treated infectious diseases and trauma, taught science and rationality to teenagers, and was expelled by superstitious local religious leaders (usually tribal elders) more than once, but the next time he blatantly brought
When food, meat, vegetables, candies and books came back, those who sold cannon shells, copper sheets and other war waste had to bow their heads to welcome him.
Part of this food is used to buy children. Salomon will send children under ten years old, and even their mothers, to the Eternal City for education (where he goes, most young adults die)
.As for the books, many of them were atheistic books that were not allowed by the tribe elders, so he could only quietly distribute them to his temporary students along with candies.
But not all the children were bought by him from those places. Some older children voluntarily followed him, regardless of gender. Some could only speak the local dialect, some could understand a few English words, and some had their limbs intact.
Some had mutilated limbs, and some suffered from mental torture due to witnessing the tragic death of their family members during the war, and even themselves suffered very cruel abuses. Salomon once saw a twelve-year-old girl wandering with her disabled brother.
Carrying a child born as a result of atrocities on his back, he could only make a living by dismantling landmines left by NATO and selling war waste such as shell skins.
He rarely gets angry unless he can't help it.
When Salomon talks to the people he carefully selects and reveals his thoughts, the boys and girls he chooses will quickly agree with him without exception. Immediately afterwards, Salomon will drive up and take him with him.
These older children traveled across the war-torn lands to find those who had put them in this situation. He would put on his armor, sword and bolter in hand, and walk straight into the battlefield. He let these children
Following him, shell shrapnel and bullets could not harm them, and the boys and girls were able to witness with their own eyes the revenge completed in their name.
He told them that he would completely end the meaningless wars between humans, and this ideal would be realized by their own hands.
He told them that there is no God in this world and there is no need for God. They will become the saviors of themselves and others, and the beautiful life in the future will be forged by their blood and sweat.
The children kissed his blood and sand-stained gauntlets and swore allegiance.
He is bav, pader, baba, ??, ??.
No matter what the pronunciation or the language is, it is what those children call him. They call him their great father, and they are willing to sacrifice their lives for him and for that great ideal - the children with missing limbs are equipped with machines.
Prosthetic limbs, a twelve-year-old girl with a child learned how to keep accounts, children who could only speak the local dialect were taught English, Latin and mathematics, children who had been tortured to death took up arms and received war training. Once ignorant and superstitious
When thoughts are replaced by reason and science, they become part of the immortal city and become the gears that build the future.
Salomon chose to believe them, and he gave them a small pendant. It was an eagle with spread wings carved in gold, and it was also the symbol of the Eternal City.
"When you look at me with your eyes of judgment, what do you see?"
"I saw war, shells, limbs, death... and trees and flames."
Robbie Reyes took a deep breath and closed his eyes in pain, completely unable to understand the meaning of what he saw. He regretted taking this challenge - even if Wanda repeated this anger to him
Affirming that the man in front of him who looked younger than him was her teacher, Robbie Reyes still felt a little unbelievable. Salomon saw his emotions, so he closed the cell for use very calmly.
The rune that binds the spirit of vengeance invites him to a trial - Salomon asks Robbie Reyes to use his Eyes of Judgment to examine his soul. For Ghost Rider, nothing can compare.
The Eye of Judgment is better able to judge a person. Robbie Reyes simply agreed and repeatedly stated that this would very likely harm the Mystic. After confirming that Wanda’s teacher already knew the risk, Robbie Reyes
Si then ordered the spirit of vengeance to come to the real world.
Salomon nodded slightly without saying much.
Then Robbie Reyes regretted it, because it was not Salomon who might have been burned, but his soul.
He saw many things that he could not understand in just a few seconds. The spirit of vengeance howled and exited the curtain of the real world, returning to the sea of souls with pain and fear. Robbie Reyes did not understand what happened at all.
What happened? When he woke up, he found himself leaning against a rough wall. His body was soaked in sweat, his palms were covered with scratches, and his broken nails were full of dried blood. The remaining memories only retained some chaotic scenes.
.Even so, he still got a glimpse of Salomon's past experience.
"Did you really do this?" He panted and raised his head, staring at the ceiling carved with granite runes, as if his sight could penetrate the thick granite layers and alloy armor plates, "Those children are really there.
?”
"Of course, that's what the underground city above your head is for, the abode of justice and righteousness. What you see is what I did in those war zones, I gave them a new life, and you
You will receive the same gift."
Salomon knelt down in front of Robbie Reyes, not caring about the prisoner's stench.
The mystic mage's face remained normal, as if he had never been looked directly at or challenged by the Eye of Judgment. "But I don't have time to solve your troubles, Vengeful Spirit, so I need you to solve them yourself. Please don't worry, you are not alone.
You've got your car, money for the Immortal City, and another Ghost Rider. I'm sure you'll want to see the man who transformed you into the Ghost Rider again, so Johnny Blaze will be involved too.
In this mission, he will teach you how to become a real Ghost Rider. Don't say stupid things like I sold my soul to the devil, you have no chance to refuse - "
Salomon's tone suddenly became stern, "-Look at yourself, crying to find your brother. You are still alive and well. I have seen many people who are more miserable than you. They can
He never complained, but worked hard to live. Just like your brother, he is much smarter than you, and he also knows that you can't appear in front of him. Do you think you can't live without him? "
"I……"
"I believe you have also seen the situation of those children, because that is what I want you to see. Since you want to obtain this power, no matter what the price you have to pay, what hardships are waiting for you ahead, you will give it
I shut up and take responsibility. All those corrupted by the "Dark Book" must die, even if only their souls are left. Kill them and protect the real world from those people. This is your job. The end of your duty.
There is only death, Robbie Reyes."
"This is so cool, brother!" After listening to Salomon's narration, little Lorna said excitedly, "When can I say such a cool thing!"
