Chapter 551 Endowed with heroic genius but unrealized will
The answer is true and cruel, but it is not beautiful.
Russell's evaluation of the Pope is consistent with the three wise men's evaluation of the "Werewolf Operation" initiated by the Pope.
"Lycaon" scratched his messy and greasy hair with some despair, and groaned as if he couldn't poop. After pondering hard for a moment, he suddenly raised his head, leaned his head over, and stared closely.
He looked at Russell as if he wanted to see the answer in his eyes.
This action is very similar to Lycaon.
Every time he encountered difficulties and was asked a difficult question by Russell that he could not answer, he would always show this look.
To ordinary people, this kind of behavior may not look friendly, because he looks a bit like he is questioning the other person, or he seems to be angry because of the other person's question.
But he actually didn't mean any harm. The ferocious look in his eyes was actually because he subconsciously pressed hard on his face when he was thinking hard, which made him look ferocious.
Those who know the basics don’t feel any pressure about it, but feel a little nostalgic about it.
He sighed and his eyes became gentler.
After all the problems with His Holiness the Pope have been discussed, it is time to mention a little bit about his advantages.
This is also the evidence that the pope’s promotion did not swallow up Lycaon at all——
Just like every sunset, the shadows of Morgan and Bluebird, or in other words, the childhood "Shirley" and "Phila" would always appear in Russell's mind.
Their existence, their past, and the feelings between them were all deeply engraved in Russell's mind, permanently melted, and formed part of Russell's overall personality.
——Just like the relationship between "Andrew" and "Lycaon".
"No wonder you have such a good relationship with Sheath. Even though Sheath once violated a taboo and openly defected from the church, she is still willing to accept him back."
Russell sighed deeply: "Because you are the same kind of people."
Lonely due to arrogance, weak due to fear;
Use pain to cover up confusion, and then use the ultimate sacrifice to atone for your sins."
——Because mentally, you are all just fragile mortals."
In this world, many failures are due to the lack of sufficient "talent" involved.
But they are different.
"You all have the talent to change the world and the talent to reach the top. No matter what, it is not your turn to say that you lack talent..."
Russell said softly.
Sheath is undoubtedly one of the best people in terms of talent - he solved the dangers he encountered when he was a child, and later joined the Tower of Babel and became an important member. He was able to obtain great benefits just as a bodyguard and teacher.
Miss Alice loved her wholeheartedly, and after entering the church, she was loved by the general and the pope. In just a few months, she was promoted to bishop, and she was also able to come into contact with the most taboo angel halo in the church...
After his defection, he was still able to walk on land, come into contact with mad mages, survive from their hands, get their help, and transform himself; his power continued to increase, and eventually he was even able to kill people with a human body
Dragon. So far, neither the Seven Giants nor the Tower of Babel have been able to find this strongest assassin in mankind.
But his heart is still broken, confused and naive, just like a child.
The same goes for Andrew. He independently developed a subconsciously programmed device called the "God Descend Device" and created an army of mechanical angels. This allowed the defeated church to counterattack in one fell swoop. It can be said that he alone is responsible for defeating the mage.
You can own 90% of it.
Afterwards, it was he who secured the smallest floating fortress for the church and transformed it into a "temple"; it was also he who created the "Sacred Scripture" server, transformed the church into a cyber church, and came into contact with the gods of the collective unconscious.
The power of the Holy Order has been developed to its limit. For more than a hundred years, it has never stopped supervising the Cyber Church to prevent it from deteriorating.
Even the name-bearing elves at the top of the church didn't realize that their pope was always the same person. They all thought that this was brainwashing from the angelic class of "Savior", but they didn't realize that this was the case.
In fact, it is a kind of seclusion, a kind of spiritual immortality.
Andrew is the real deal - a great man who single-handedly reversed history and created an era.
But the heart of the Pope named "Promoted" is also fragile. He is vaguely aware of the truth but dare not accept it. He only wants to stay in the comfort zone, holding on to false hopes for his own sake, deceiving himself as if he only wants to
If you are willing to make sacrifices, you can solve the problem.
In this world, anyone can say that they lack "talent".
Only they can't.
"Although you all have amazing talents, you don't have the strong heart to control these talents. This is also a kind of mediocrity. You have heroic genius but no will to realize it."
Russell said slowly: "I think from the bottom of my heart - even the world's only half-elf, the inferior, or my fiancée Delphinium. Even you, Lycaon, my friend...
…You are all more powerful than either Sheath or Ascension.
"Because you know your own path. Because you can recognize and accept your own weakness, because you allow yourself to be wrong... Because you know that even if your sacrifice is meaningless, you are willing to make sacrifices; it is not delusion.
Solve problems through sacrifice.
"Because you are all still willing to try when your own strength is insufficient. Because in this world, the courage to live is sometimes better than death; because there are always things in this world that are more important than success, and that is
The true heart that dares to face the pain.
"It is not the one who sacrifices who is a hero, nor the one who is powerful. A hero is not an unattainable icon, nor is it a cry of thanks given as a sacrifice of life, nor is it a more powerful person named as a savior.
, are not heroes with brute force. They may be heroes, or they may not be.
"People give heroes the names of great people and spread their deeds to the world to express their respect, gratitude, and admiration - but this is not to encourage people to do these things. It is not to preach that as long as these great deeds are completed,
If you can become a hero, you can save others and the world.
"It's just selling pain, blinding others with dreams and sweet words. He teaches people to always look upward, but doesn't let them look down again; he teaches people how to be strong until death, but doesn't teach them
How do you live a weak life? As if you are not strong enough and you deserve to suffer, and life without success is meaningless..."
Speaking of this, Russell suddenly paused.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of many people.
The images of many people flashed through his mind——
[——I am her instinct to destroy herself. I was born for a clean death. When she planned to end it all, she was still so weak that she did not intend to kill anyone. So I will not hurt anyone as long as it is small.
Liuli can die cleanly.]
Even though he said such sad words, not a single tear fell from the broken glass prosthetic eyes of "Caged Bird".
【——It turns out that I am...in hell...】
The Bird of Paradise was just one step away from saving Russell, but its aura that could heal others was shattered by Quan Shu's shot.
Her kindness and goodwill were destroyed without any value, and the only meaning given to her life so far was easily crushed.
Seeing her friend and benefactor dying in front of her eyes, as a healer, she was powerless.
[So I am... such a stupid kid...]
She fell to the ground, her voice choked with sobs, and tears of despair slowly shed.
【——I regret so much】
In the dim downtown area, relying on the dim light of the surrounding factories, Morgan looked intently at the counterfeit wearing the shell of "Lan Ge Go" beside him, and said quietly:
[Heart hurts like being bitten by poisonous insects]
[If I had prevented him from becoming a singer at that time, would it not be the case now? 】
[We can lie on the grass at home or at school at noon. He can lie on my lap, and I will touch his hair to coax him to sleep. I will look at his peaceful sleeping face and play him in my ear.
Music sung...]
Tears quietly fell from the corners of Morgan's eyes
Sliding down, dripping from the chin.
Her eyes were gradually filled with tears, and her calm voice gradually collapsed.
