Overturned Tower

When Russell was talking to Strangler, the bad guy stood silently behind Strangler, like a thin shadow.

The long black windbreaker worn by the bad guy contrasted sharply with his pale skin.

The bad guy who was completely silent was completely different from his previous irritable and indifferent temperament.

If he looked like a "younger Camarse" before, then he looks like an empty and thin ghost now.

He looked like the kind of man who would appear in a dilapidated and haunted opera house, standing alone in the middle of the stage, directing the empty stage behind him. Like the kind of person who stands on the dividing line between ghosts and humans.

Although they obtained technology from Dr. Paradise that can directly read brain waves to speak, the bad guys are quite distrustful of this technology involving consciousness interaction.

He wouldn't wear something like that unless necessary.

But as Russell and Strangler discussed Tovatus and the Veil of Ignorance, the bad guy seemed to gradually come to life...

To put it bluntly, it's like changing from a black and white line drawing to a black and white manga manuscript.

Although it is also black and white... the latter is like the finishing touch, as if it really exists and is fixed at the other end of the picture.

Russell glanced at the Inferior but did not speak to him directly.

He just continued to talk to Strangler: "You still remember what Tovatus said when he first saw me."

"...Ah, I remember."

When Strangler said this, his expression suddenly became gloomy.

He would never forget what Tovatus had said then.

After Strangler had already stood up and claimed that the barber was his... Tovatus didn't give him any face at all, and bluntly said, "Strangler can't tolerate you", "The way of anger is too narrow for you", " Those scum in Xiacheng District can’t understand your thoughts.”

The anger he felt when he was strangled was like a tube of toothpaste that he was holding tightly...if he couldn't control it even a little bit, it would be squeezed out all at once.

…That is not slandered anger.

Quite the opposite.

Because what Tovatus said was true. The truth can touch people's hearts the most.

In the end, it turned out that he really couldn't tolerate the barber. The status between them was reversed in less than a month.

This is not to deny the genius and plans of the Godfather.

On the contrary, Strangler extremely recognized the godfather's ability... Because of this, the genuine jealousy would flow out continuously.

The godfather spoke slowly: "He said at that time, 'It would be great if you were born in the upper city, so that I can stand up and openly be your enemy.'

"He said that if he used the company's power to surround me, I wouldn't be able to survive for long. At the same time, he didn't want to give up... Considering that my ability could not make up for the gap in resources between us, he hoped that I could Uptown, and then he rebelled against me.

“Tovatus thought that was only fair.

"So, he first followed my previous plan and greatly weakened the Veil of Ignorance; then, without denying my authority, he just watched me get the authority of the Lower City... It can be said that he was even helping me. "

The previous death of Kamalse was somewhat related to Tovatus.

Morgan's successful revenge is also related to Tovatus's shelter and help.

The godfather said in a deep voice: "But that help was not based on complete goodwill. His ultimate goal was to entertain himself.

"It was as if he had found a card game that was difficult to get into, but very interesting. So he carefully taught me how to play the game, paid to help me configure my deck, and gave me a partner to teach me how to play.

"But his ultimate goal is not just to teach me and get me started. He hopes that after I learn it, I can duel with him - a fair duel with all my strength."

Tovatus frankly admitted in front of all the mages at that time that he was just here to "find a playmate."

"He said that he was born to 'discord with others'. But his high position prevented him from exerting his strength at all... That's why he came down and was in an absolutely disadvantageous position to fight against the inferiors who were holding the power.

"You may not know, strangulation. The bad guy is a half-elf... He has a special origin that prevents Tovatus from killing him. Tovatus must abide by the rules of this game and constantly challenge him under various restrictions. The ‘worse will perish’ conundrum.”

"……I see."

Strangler nodded slowly and responded in a low voice.

He lightly hammered the table, causing the tabletop and the ground to vibrate.

"That all makes sense."

Strangler frowned - this expression was not very obvious on his lion face, but it seemed more powerful because of this: "I always felt before that his attitude was too playful when targeting the inferior. I thought It was because his personality was not serious enough and there were loopholes in his plan...it turned out that everything was fine.

"So now...does he plan to change positions?"

"That's natural."

At this time, the godfather glanced at the Inferior without concealment, and let Zhuo Zhu cast his gaze over: "The Inferior has come to the Lower City and became one of us. To say the least, he has also been abolished. The only one What's also valuable is the name 'Inferior' itself.

“In order to make perfect use of the name, I originally planned to design a huge upheaval. In that big event, we would announce our presence—to announce that we were everywhere in Uptown, like ghosts.

"Probably because he realized that if this continues, we will definitely win. So Tovatus lost the desire to play and planned to stand on the other side.

"Yes, he recognized our strength."

The godfather crossed the fingers of his hands and placed them in front of his abdomen.

His words are low and gentle, but possess a kind of charm that can confuse people: "He also thinks that if this continues, after the bad guys leave, the other people in the uptown area will be just chickens and dogs... What a hero club, what ultramarine, There is nothing to be afraid of - our Tovatus director, through higher sight and more intelligence, has judged that we are now on a more advantageous side.

"So, he chose to return to the upper city. To fight against you and me, against the inferiors. Against our new family, against us uncoded people who unite."

"Do you want to be our enemy?"

Strangulation said slowly, with a solemn tone.

He takes this enemy very seriously.

[——He does not want to be our enemy, he wants to be the enemy of the world]

But at this moment, a deep voice sounded from the hearts of Godfather and Strangler at the same time.

That is definitely not the voice of a bad person——

A strong feeling of nausea and vomiting came over his heart, making Strangler frown.

He did not spit it out, but relied on his strong willpower to calm down, and at the same time suddenly turned back to look at the inferior.

At some point, the inferior man's pupils were ignited with spiritual fire again.

But it's completely different from the previous psychic tones...

It was black, filthy fire.

Like a blackened wall after a fire, looking up, the entire room seemed to be in an endless abyss.

Just looking at the inferior is like looking into an infinite abyss. An abyss that can swallow up all sounds.

"——"

Strangulation frowned, wanting to scold the bad guy.

But when he spoke...he realized that his voice was completely swallowed up.

"——"

The godfather raised his eyebrows, showed a pleased smile, and moved his mouth silently. But there was also no sound coming.

The air around him was extremely silent, and not even the sound of his heartbeat could be heard.

[After being unable to resonate with the original spiritual energy, can a new spiritual energy be reawakened? It's really amazing... he is worthy of being an inferior person. On top of the talents of anger and emptiness, both can be called geniuses】

A frivolous voice suddenly sounded in the silent atmosphere.

Strangler and the Bad One suddenly looked at the Godfather.

I saw the godfather showing a gentle smile and his mouth moving silently.

Another voice different from the godfather's sounded in the silent space:

[Hello, "empty and silent". You can call me...Vessel of God]

At that moment, the godfather's gaze was so profound that it seemed to have some kind of divinity.

Completely different from the godfather's humble tone and attitude, the voice that sounded from the hearts of the three of them was unruly and arrogant.

[If the talent of your host can be called a genius...then this body that belongs to me has the talent of God]

【Meet your god, devil】
