Chapter 500 The moonlight is like blood tonight (1)
"Squeak...squeak...squeak..."
The wind blew the windows and made a strange sound, the curtains fluttered in the wind, and the unknown light passed through the windows, casting bright squares one after another on the floor. When Kongsu followed Schiller through the corridors of the asylum, they were like fingers.
Stroking the black and white piano keys.
Kongsu is different from other demon gods. He will possess the Moon Knight in the form of the power of moonlight and adventure with them in human society. Therefore, he is not ignorant of things in human society, at least he
You can recognize it, this is the corridor of a human hospital.
But at the same time, this corridor made him feel a little strange. There were no curved letters here. Instead, there were square characters that made Kongsu feel familiar, just like the ancient Egyptian characters he had often used. Lines
Complex, like a painting.
Between the Mo Lake, Kongsu recalled that he seemed to have seen this kind of writing in the mind of a certain agent. It came from a distant eastern country and was as old as the ancient Egypt where Kongsu lived.
As Kong Su walked forward, he turned to look at the wall of the hospital corridor. The lower part of the wall was painted with blue-green paint, and then there were white skirting lines. However, the colored wall paint was already very mottled.
It looks a bit shabby.
Kongsu is an ancient demon god, but at the same time, he is also the one closest to humans among all the demon gods in the universe. He gained faith from the ancient Egyptians, and at the same time, he has been guarding the ancient country and humans in the temple.
.
His way of thinking is different from humans, but precisely because he is so close to humans, he can better understand these small lives.
In his opinion, human beings have endless beautiful fantasies, and they will exhaust all their imaginations to create a Utopia for themselves in their minds, which is what the Moon Knights did in the past.
But now it seemed that the man walking in front of him was a little different. Kongsu didn't understand why there was a slightly shabby mental hospital in Schiller's mind.
The window frames were yellowed by the sun, the wall paint was peeling off, the baseboards were bumpy, there were small advertisements with words and numbers on the doors and walls, and even the glass and tile floors looked foggy.
Yes, obviously no one has wiped it for a long time.
"Where are we going?" Kong Su asked: "Where is your strongest personality?"
"Don't worry, before that, we need to negotiate the terms first." Schiller said as he walked forward.
"Yes, you humans like to talk about terms the most. Everyone I meet is like this." Kong Su was not surprised.
"Before that, should you introduce yourself to me? Moon God Kongsu, who are you? Why did you choose an agent with multiple personality disorder?"
"I don't know if you know anything about the gods, but if the organization you are talking about called the Holy of Holies has come into contact with many demon gods, then you should know that human faith is very important to us."
"There are two ways to gain the faith of humans. The first is to come to the world, show your powerful power, reveal your true name, and let people believe in him as a god."…
"Another way is to incarnate into natural phenomena that humans already believe in, such as the sun, moon, birth, death, spring, winter, etc."
"You chose the latter?" Schiller turned around slightly and asked.
"Yes, but there are many demon gods who have chosen this path. These natural phenomena themselves will also give birth to some conceptual demon gods. However, there are not many of these phenomena worshiped by humans, so the gods will inevitably overlap."
"As far as I know, almost every pantheon has one god of the sun, god of thunder, god of fire, god of water, etc. Their duties are the same, so how do we allocate beliefs?"
"This is exactly what I want to say." Kongsu's deep voice echoed in the corridor. It was precisely because of Schiller's specialness that he had the patience to explain more. He said: "There are many sun gods and moon gods on the earth.
, but we have different responsibilities.”
"I represent the changes of the moon. The ancient Egyptians carved the different shapes of the moon on the walls in the form of pictures and integrated them into their texts. They used the changes of the moon's shape to represent the passage of time. Therefore, I
It became a priesthood representing every form of the moon."
"This is why, unlike other demon gods, I don't just give power to agents, but I can stay in the host's mind and come anytime and anywhere."
"There are as many forms of the moon as there are me. I am changing among several forms all the time, and I have no exact identity."
"That's why I choose agents who are in a similar state to me and choose them to become Moon Knights, because I am uncertain and so are they. In this state, they can better use my power.
"
"So, if you choose me as your agent and project your power on me, what do you want me to do?"
Schiller's question made Kongsu silent. It was the first time that he heard a human being ask the price of his power. But after being silent for a while, he still said: "In fact, this is what you should have done.
Because all this happened because of the Holy of Holies.”
Schiller felt as if he heard Kongsu sigh, and then he heard Kongsu say:
"The Egyptian gods who participated in the Holy of Holies broke the peace of the heavens. They obtained more powerful power, so they also demanded a higher status."
"Although, I have been exiled from the heaven a long time ago, there are other beings who were also exiled. One of them is Amit, who is responsible for punishing criminals with me."
"He made a deal with the gods in heaven, obtained more powerful power, and enabled his followers to walk in the world, establish sects, and gain faith, but I can't sit back and watch such a thing happen..."
"Why? Because his and your powers overlap?"
Kong Su shook his head and said: "We have some grudges from the past, but more importantly, we have different ideas. The moonlight is the supplement of the sun's light. Darkness and light go hand in hand. I just walk in punishment where the light cannot be seen."
Sinners in darkness..."
"What about Amit?"
"He wants to destroy all sinful people in this world."…
"How does he define guilt?"
"That's the problem. In Amit's view, as long as you have the potential to commit a crime, or even have the slightest idea of committing a crime, then you deserve to die."
"He should be working for the God of Death, right? Want to help his boss improve his performance?"
After Schiller said this, it could be clearly seen that Kong Su was stunned for a moment, and then Kong Su continued: "I don't understand what performance you are talking about, but he is indeed related to Hades."
"The relationship between the gods in the heaven is very complicated, and the power provided by the Holy of Holies to some of the gods has broken the original balance. If Amit really escapes completely, it will be a disaster for mankind."
"You want me to kill Amit?"
Kong Su nodded, but shook his head, and said: "I will give you the power of Moon Knight, and you just need to ensure that Amit will not really escape from trouble."
"Deal." Schiller agreed without hesitation.
They kept walking forward. Looking out the window, Schiller's figure was somewhat dwarfed by the tall Kongsu.
Two figures, one tall and one short, slowly moved forward in the corridor. The terrifying skull falcon head floated slightly in the air, but the human in front of them seemed not to notice and just walked forward without looking back.
This scene looked strange and mysterious. As they moved from one end of the window to the other, Schiller finally stopped. He stopped in front of a door with the door number written "1003".
Kongsu stood behind Schiller, and through the surveillance window on the door, he could see that the room was dark, with only a small light bulb above his head emitting faint light. In the hazy light, he could see the figure of a person.
Stand in the center of the room.
But Schiller did not open the door. Instead, he stood in front of the door in silence for a while, and then said to himself:
"A person's growth experience will shape their personality, and a particular experience may add certain traits to their personality."
"It is these qualities that constitute a complete personality, frankness, shyness, enthusiasm, indifference, gentleness, violence..."
"Me and him..." Schiller stretched out his hand, pointed at the figure in the room, and then said: "Including all the Schillers you see here, we are different qualities of the same personality."
"There is actually only one personality here, and that is the tower you once saw."
"I have never seen such a person." Kong Su's words were always very straightforward, sounding strange and ignorant of the world.
Schiller reached out and pressed his finger on the surveillance window of the door. He said: "Any personality traits that appear here do not appear out of thin air. They were born from a certain experience in my life..."
"Then what do you represent?" Kong Su asked.
"Greed." Schiller, in a white coat, replied.
It seems that he has not discussed similar issues with others for a long time. Schiller seemed to be very talkative. He said: "When I first came to this world, the emotion I had was not fear or confusion, but greed."
…”
"What are you greedy for?"
"Power." Schiller answered without thinking, "But not the kind of power used for fighting."...
"A long time ago, I discovered that I could get the inner drive that makes me feel satisfied and allows me to carry out activities through communication with others, from trying to figure out their psychological state, and analyzing their personality.
strength."
"After I first came to such a new world, I knew that there were so many people and things that I was interested in. How did they grow up to be what they are today, and what kind of mentality did they have to carry out their careers?
, these questions make me curious.”
"So, when I first met someone I was very interested in, the trait of greed surfaced and became who I am now."
"It's a very interesting state." Kong Su commented.
"The appearance of a certain aspect of personality is determined by when the characteristics of this aspect mainly surface."
"In the past, this trait often appeared when I was a psychiatrist. In the process of working as a psychiatrist, I was curious about the mental state and mental process described by the patient to me, and I also wanted to peek into other people's hearts and profile them.
I feel greedy about other people’s personalities and analyzing other people’s spiritual world to gain satisfaction.”
"So, the manifestation of this trait is a psychiatrist. Whether in reality or in the spiritual world, he exists as a doctor."
The moon god Kongsu is a pretty good person to talk to. He is an ancient demon god who cannot understand the so-called psychology and psychoanalysis of humans. Even if he understands it, he will not spread it. Therefore, Schiller explained many things that are basically unknown except for his peers.
There will be people who have the patience to listen, depending on his mental state.
"So, what about you in this room?" Kong Su asked: "What does he represent? Why do you think he is the best?"
"He represents the violent trait in my personality." Schiller's answer did not go beyond Consu's expectations, because according to normal logic, if you must find the most aggressive person in someone's personality, who can display the most aggressive
The trait that has the greatest combat effectiveness must be the trait of violence.
"Then why don't you open the door?"
Schiller did not answer the question directly. He just looked up and looked around the corridor. He said: "Some traits in my personality are very dangerous, such as violence, madness, indifference, morbidity, etc..."
"These characteristics will stay in their unique building, which is often a memory I once had. For example, violent characteristics will stay in this madhouse..."
"So, you have lived in this madhouse?" Kongsu asked.
Schiller nodded, as if he had remembered something, but he did not explain the problem, but continued: "If you want to enter the building where they are, you need special keys. These keys are in the hands of the 'superego'
, these qualities cannot rise if the superego, which represents social rules and morals, does not give the key.”
"According to ordinary people's logic, when people use violence or fall into madness, they will be restricted by social rules and morals in their thinking. Once they think about this aspect, they will have concerns about violence or madness in their personality.
factors will be temporarily suppressed.”…
At this moment, at the end of the corridor they were walking through, there was a series of hurried footsteps, and a small figure ran over. Kong Su saw that it was a young version of Schiller, still holding a child in his arms.
A gray unknown object.
"Here comes the key," Schiller said.
The young Schiller ran to the door with a click, then stopped, turned around and handed Schiller a key in his hand.
The moon god Kongsu asked: "He is also a trait in your personality? What does he represent?"
"He is my true self and represents my instinct."
The Moon God Kongsu bent down and touched the head of the young Schiller. The young Schiller looked up at him and seemed not to be afraid. The Moon God Kongsu asked him: "What are you holding in your arms?"
"
The young Schiller looked down at the ball of slime in his arms. He pursed his lips and shook his head. Kongsu straightened up again, looked at Schiller and asked him: "Why can't your instinct speak?"
Schiller opened the door with the key and said: "Remember? I just said that all the characteristics were born from a certain period of my life experience..."
"The content of this experience determines the appearance and characteristics of this trait..."
As he spoke, Schiller opened the door and turned back to look at the young Schiller who was gradually running away with the gray slime in his arms. When he thought of something, he forced himself to turn his head back and look into the room.
The figure in the room was wearing a full-body mental patient's straitjacket, with several iron chains wrapped around his body. The ends of the iron chains were fixed on the four walls and ceiling, and he had a metal protective shield on his mouth.
The only part of his body that was not wrapped in clothes was his eyebrows. Kong Su saw that he looked exactly like the Schiller in front of him, except that he was much younger than him, and he was still just a teenager.
