Chapter 22: The Fire of Jealousy and Greed

In fact, the previous plans proposed by the godfather to "leap onto the chessboard" and "become a competitor of the head office" only made Strangler feel that it "sounded like it would work."

But that's all.

In fact, Hangsha is the most pessimistic person.

The reason why he was willing to support the godfather's plan was because he originally couldn't believe in ale.

The "Melting Pot" school and the "Remnant" school are inherently opposed to each other.

One emphasizes using the hammer of pain and the fire of anger to temper itself and transform itself into something great... The entire external world is a hardship and a test, all joy is false, and all pain is an opportunity.

The other one believes that everyone will die, even this world will be destroyed, and everything will be reduced to the remains after being burned by fire. Whether it is great or not is just a matter of how much fire is hidden in the remains.

The difference...the most correct thing to do is to enjoy yourself while you are burning.

These are two completely opposite schools of magic.

The inheritance of the magic school itself includes the world view.

Just as the Godfather said... According to the concept of the "melting pot" school, every area in the dream world is a kind of training. Endure the ordeal with all your strength. After passing the test, your personal character will be affected by it.

Reshape.

Strangler is always silent and reliable. This is not unrelated to his experience of walking on the path of contemplation and moderation and experiencing many hardships.

For example, "Heart Lake".

He wants to drive a lonely boat in the never-ending lake. Whenever he has the slightest distracting thoughts in his heart, the originally calm lake surface will become turbulent and agitated; if he feels restless and anxious, the lake surface will become

It's as scary as a tsunami; if he feels fear and panic, monsters will really appear in the lake and attack the lone boat.

Only by staying calm and ignoring the surging waves can we get through that area.

And the experience in this process has definitely had an irreversible impact on himself.

Because of this, he and Malt Liquor studied in opposite schools, which proves that their views must be opposite.

It wasn't exposed, just because Malt Liquor was cunning enough. She hid her true self in order to convince Strangler.

So when the godfather proposed another plan, Strangler agreed without hesitation.

Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, the fact that it can solve the immediate problem and prevent Malt Liquor from succeeding is enough for him to support it.

But in fact, strangulation comes from distrust in the heart, and the godfather's plan can really be realized smoothly.

Until now.

For the first time, he suddenly felt... that he had reached such a high position without even realizing it.

He has really... grown to the point where he can influence the world.

Although it was the Godfather who really changed the world, from another perspective, the Godfather was also brought here by him.

He was able to recruit the Godfather because he felt the pressure from the Veil of Ignorance and the Reincarnation of Eternity. And this self-esteem as a leader was acquired through training in the "Way of the Furnace".

It is precisely because he never stops and absorbs all the pain from the outside to strengthen himself that he has the opportunity to recruit the godfather to his army.

The pain that tempered him did bear fruit...

And at that time, some ideas that he had never dared to think about before also burst out.

That's...greed for power.

The "family" they formed may really be able to influence the big shots in the upper city.

Those high-ranking people who had made Zhuo Zhu feel scared since he was a child, and made him feel angry as soon as he could remember... actually became so close to him at this moment?

He didn't even dare to look up at those big shots before.

Because he has really seen how powerful those people are... He really knows how powerful money and power are. From a very young age, that kind of fear has been deeply ingrained in Hangzhou's heart.

That's not even an elf director, but just a human director. That's not even a director of the head office, just the boss of a small company...

His way of wielding power wantonly and treating others as objects, bought, sold and dismantled left a deep psychological shadow on Strangler.

So he never decided to confront Uptown like the other two organizations did.

This is because Strangler has an extremely clear understanding of himself.

He can't win. Absolutely not.

They are just a bunch of rotten dogs in the sewers, and they will never be able to defeat real "people".

...But now, the godfather told him that he was able to kill an elf director.

After just two days of hiding, he was able to enter the dream world calmly... But he knew that the godfather used a "self-binding ritual" when entering the dream world.

If it is not safe enough, using self-binding to enter the dream world is tantamount to asking for death.

Can this be understood to mean that it only took the Godfather two days... to defeat those "elven directors" who, in the eyes of Strangler, were simply invincible and could never be defeated?

So in the future, will the power of company directors...or even the power of directors of the head office be lower than that of the godfather?

If we say that Xiacheng District can really compete head-on with Shangcheng District...

Will he try his best to make the mark of the "White Lion Group" on his godfather clearer?

Ale and the elf boy were greedy for him. They had wanted him for a long time... and the mare called him daddy.

But no matter what, the Godfather all came from the White Lion Group.

He is the talent I found!

he is mine

The "shadow" hidden in the heart gradually makes the blood-red flames of Strangler Tongdi gradually become lighter...

It turned into a gray flame, with a layer of pale orange dancing from time to time.

It was not the fire of anger, but the fire of jealousy and greed.

It was a remnant of the time when he used to walk in the dream world based solely on instinct.

It was the time when he had not inherited the way of the "melting pot" and relied solely on his own nature to walk on the path that suited him best... It was the time when he did not understand the rules of the dream world and was influenced by the way of jealousy and greed.

The shadow attack of Tao, but the "inner demon" that always remains in my heart.

Jealousy, greed, madness, fear...that was the path he took during the period of confusion before embarking on the path of "anger".

He thought that after he embarked on the path of anger, these emotions had been turned into firewood and used as fuel for anger.

But I didn't expect...

"It's still in my heart..."

Thanks to the experience of "the way of contemplation" and "the way of temperance", Strangler gradually came to his senses.

He realized that there were impurities in his emotions that shouldn't be present.

Meditation and temperance strive to suppress greed and envy.

And when he was too "restrained", deep purring sounds suddenly appeared from all directions.

……shadow?

"Be careful... barber."

Hangsha immediately stopped his previous thinking and replied seriously: "That is the shadow of the way of contemplation.

"Don't think about what they are, pretend you can't see them...just keep moving forward."

The "barber" raised his eyebrows.

Don’t you call me godfather anymore?

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a pleasant smile.

【What are you doing?】

Russell's voice rang in his heart: [Why should the essence of strangulation be exposed in a place like this?]

It's because of being in a place like this.

"Barber" responded in his mind.

"It is precisely because of the blessing of regional power on the path of contemplation... that he was able to wake up immediately.

"It's about using shadows to fight shadows, and inner demons to fight inner demons.

"If this is of no use to him... then it means that he has been too deeply contaminated. We should prepare a 'strangulation plan'.

"You're not still feeling lucky, are you?"

[...No. He has already told me that his anger is not pure. I curiously conducted a behavioral analysis on him at that time, and easily saw the fear and greed in his heart]

[I just thought that this day would come later]

"This human emotion is called luck, my God."

【I know! I don’t need you to guide me】

"And this feeling is called anger."

The smile on the barber's mouth became more obvious.

Although Russell looked a little angry, but since he didn't take back the control of his body, it means that it was just a few words.

It’s so easy to understand, the other me.
