The strong wind swept the torrential rain and washed the ground, and the trivial lightning like silver snakes shuttled freely in the dark clouds. Sometimes, heavy thunder crashed into the ground like a meteor, briefly illuminating the entire world.
Leiyu was sitting cross-legged on the top of the mountain with firm eyes, raising his head to look at the thunder and lightning in the distance, observing the movements of these wild fairies. In ancient times, they were once connected with the most primitive fear, but now they have gradually turned into A symbol of freedom.
Philosophers throughout history have had complex analyzes of the word "freedom". Even from the simplest perspective, freedom can be divided into active and passive, that is, the freedom to do something and not to do anything, but Lei Yun The understanding of it only stays at this level.
Because what he pursues is "freedom like thunder", their freedom is quite different from the mainstream secular view. The destruction and destruction of others is also an important part of freedom for the children of thunder. This is also in line with the genes engraved in human beings. the fear in.
The freedom that Lei Yu is pursuing is achieved through strength. He is also one of the few sons of Thunder who would perform a blood sacrifice to the God of Thunder in exchange for strength. However, even so, he still deliberately kept a distance from the God of Thunder and did not stay in the South before receiving this mission. federal.
Although he knew very well that Thor also wanted them to remain free, staying in a place where the gods were active still made Leiyu feel restricted. This was mainly because of Thor's powerful power that far surpassed him.
When Lei Yu stays next to someone who can easily turn him into ashes, he doesn't feel much freedom.
After leaving the Southern Federation, out of the pursuit of power and freedom, he joined the federal government, the strongest ruler on the planet today, and slowly discovered a lot of truths in it. Because Thor Unwilling to restrain them, he is one of the few sons of the gods who can learn certain truths.
Thor is transferring his concept to his people by strengthening individuals, and is also influencing popular culture, trying to break free from his constraints by strengthening the concept of freedom. If his current plan has enough power, A god who can directly transform him into freedom.
Unlike the other people of the gods, the Son of Thunder is basically not affected by the gods, because if the Thunder God does something to him, he is not practicing the concept of freedom, so Leiyu is the same as all his colleagues who know the truth...
He doesn't want Thor to escape the cursed land, and the Sons of Thunder are a group of humans who long for freedom.
Moreover, the freedom of "Thunder" is achieved by trampling on the freedom of others. If Thor leaves the cursed land, they will no longer be free, so no son of Thunder with a normal will wants to see him break free.
But that's the genius of Thor's plan, there's nothing they can do to stop him.
Because if they want to stand against Thor, they are acting freely according to their own will. Any attempt to resist Thor from the bottom of their hearts will only advance his plan, and if they have no objection to Thor's plan, they will be even more Will act according to her will.
As long as they still enjoy the power of their bodies and long for the ability to determine their own destiny, they will naturally become his accomplices, and all attempts to resist will only bring a steady stream of support to Thor.
Therefore, Leiyu was deeply troubled by this matter after he found the truth in the Federation.
Because he didn't want to help Thor escape from the cursed land at all, but he had no choice but to become a tool for the other party to execute his plan. This made the so-called freedom look like a lie, and then he couldn't help but think of resistance.
Then he realized that these changes in himself may have been anticipated by Thor, and may even have been deliberately guided by Thor to let the son of thunder feel restrained before pursuing freedom. This process continued to promote her escape from the curse. ground progress.
In the end, Thunderstorm chose to put the incident completely behind him and pursue pure strength and power to the best of his ability to ensure that he could retain the ability to make free choices when encountering real difficulties.
This is also the reason why he still stays in the Federation. There are resources he needs here, but...
Why am I sitting here reminiscing about my past thoughts?
Boom!
Suddenly there was a series of sounds from the dark clouds in the distance, and lightning streaked across the sky crazily, seeming to express his anger. But not long after, the frequency of thunder began to decrease and became milder, as if he was calmed down. .
A dark cloud in the distance dispersed, revealing a silver crescent moon hidden behind it.
"When you learn the truth, the thought of resistance is bound to appear in your mind, and this is actually what he expects you to think of. Only when you deeply feel the fate of being manipulated, freedom will become precious." A hazy female voice. There was a sound behind him.
"The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty"
The goddess draped in moonlight walked into the dream of thunderstorm, and she inquired about the surrounding environment with great interest:
"I just had a few words with Thor, and there will be no problems with this conversation between us. It is a good proposal for him because it shows that you are free.
"Even if it's just an illusion that's more ethereal than a dream."
Leiyu looked at her:
"Is this a dream?"
Moon God smiled and said:
"That's right, don't worry."
He replied:
"I'm not afraid, you can't do anything to me."
Lei Yu is telling the truth, because he knows that the Investigation Department has a defense line that can specifically prevent the invasion of the Moon God. Shadow is also a leader among Level V telepaths. He didn't know this in the past, but there is one thing that can prove this point - -Shadow is one of the thirteen level V ability users who surrounded and suppressed the Shenxiao Walker.
Therefore, there should be no way for Luna to invade the minds of members of the Investigation Department so easily while Shadow is alive. This guarantee is also the reason why Leiyu joined the Federation.
No matter how many shortcomings and problems there are, the Federation still rules most of the land in the world today, and this is a simple proof that there is no organization or individual capable of overturning their rule.
They are still strong.
The reason why Moon Goddess could enter his dream must be because of Thor. She is one of the few who remains neutral among this group of gods who seem to be fighting.
The reason for this phenomenon is also very simple. The other gods need to rely on external resources to escape the cursed land, and doing so will definitely attract human resistance, so they got involved in the battle between the Salvation Alliance and the Investigation Department. .
When mortals fight each other for their own interests, whether the gods successfully escape from the cursed land is no longer the most urgent crisis. For humans, killing their hostile compatriots is the most important thing, and the gods have therefore An opportunity to take advantage of.
But in Lei Yu's opinion, things should be about to change completely. The shadow coming to him indicates that the situation is likely to change. The Federation may have realized that the result of continuing to let the gods take advantage of them is not acceptable to them.
And this news must not be known to the moon god.
Lei Yu suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart and asked expressionlessly:
"What do you want to do? Although I am also the son of the gods, no one can order me, and you can't rely on him to ask me to do anything."
Moon God said playfully:
"I know that you sons of Thunder are free. Although you are just a tool of freedom, you are indeed much better than my people. All their mental changes can only be carried out with my permission."
Leiyu showed no reaction to her slightly sarcastic words, and did not intend to refute with words. Even if he actually knew the situation of these gods, it would not be much better.
He could taunt Luna with a few words, but that meant nothing to Lei Yu.
He preferred to respond with actions rather than retaliate with words. If the opponent was a weak person, he would have crushed the opponent's skull, but the person who said these words was a Level V Moon God.
If the shadows weren't protecting them, the Moon God could easily destroy their own minds. The only way for non-psychic low-level ability users like them to contend with them alone is not to enter the Southern Federation.
"What do you want to say?" he asked calmly.
Moon God smiled:
"Mortal, I understand your troubles. Except for those hysterical lunatics and stupid fools, almost no one wants to see us leave here, but you have no choice but to advance the progress of Thor's escape.
"But you can't resist him. To really delay the progress is to accept his will, but if you do it with the idea of resisting, it will only have the opposite effect. The best case scenario is that you don't know this at all. The presence.
"But I can help you. The simplest but not permanent solution is to erase this matter directly from your heart, or I can perform several minor mental surgeries so that you will not provide him with power. As long as you know what's going on, you can help Thor get out of trouble at the lowest possible level.
"Thor, who respects freedom, will not interfere with this act, but this is also a gentle resistance, which in itself will advance the progress of his escape.
“So to do this you also need to know how much help you will bring to him if you maintain your current status, and how to minimize your autonomy.
"And only I can find the path that is generally the least beneficial to him. Because there is only one Level V spiritual god in the world, I can guarantee that the final result will satisfy you, and I am also one of the few you can rest assured about. People who have been tampered with.
"It's impossible for me to do anything bad to the people of Thunder God, and it's impossible for him to give us any instructions. Although I did this because I wanted to make the first god to escape from the cursed land to be me, but your gods seem to be more difficult to stop."
That's right.
Because Moon God and others are involved in the Federation's pursuit of the Salvation Alliance, they are actually gods who appear in the open, while Thor's methods are quite covert. The Sons of Thunder are one of the very few who can maintain everything outside the Southern Federation. The fighting sons of the gods, there are now many sons of thunder hiding around the world.
His escape ritual cannot be affected by particularly direct methods and the outcome of the war itself, but this is not the case for Luna. She has already been included on the investigation department's list to be dealt with.
"What do you want?" Leiyu asked.
Moon God showed a faint smile:
"You're hunting Ma En, right?"
If she hadn't been aware of the existence of this secret, she might still be carrying out the original plan for the moon rising ceremony, but Ma En made her delay a lot of her original preparations, because the result of getting him would only be worse than completing the original plan. Be good.
Leiyu looked at her and said:
"Are you talking about the wanted criminal who helped Qin Lan escape?"
Moon Goddess looked curious and said:
"Tell me more about your knowledge of Marne."
Lei Yu did not let go immediately:
"Tell me first what you want to do."
Luna has no problem with this:
"I want to get his soul and secrets, and you can help me accomplish this. At the same time, I will leave him to you after completing my purpose."
Lei Yu asked doubtfully:
"Why do you want him?"
She asked lightly:
"I am a god, what reason do I need to get a mortal?"
This mortal would have the honor of being a stepping stone for a god out of the cursed land, which in the past would have been enough to make everyone in his family feel honored and grateful.
Leiyu then asked:
"If even a god can't deal with Man on his own, what can I do?"
Moon God showed an arrogant expression:
"what's on your mind?
"No matter what, Ma En is just a mortal, and there is no chance he can compete with me. But there are other things behind him, and I need something else on the surface to distract their attention.
“For example, you represent the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
"Now tell me all the information you have about us."
Leiyu said:
"He is recorded as a level III memory eraser, but he may have used short-distance space movement skills when helping Qin Lan escape, and he has the ability to block tracking to a certain extent. However, we have found a way to deal with this We found a way and successfully located him in Gowen Prefecture.
"We might have captured him if it weren't for your vigilance at night."
Moon God smiled contemptuously:
"Memory wipe?"
The Federation was ignorant of the nature of his abilities.
Of course, Ma En can block tracking because he is a secret, but judging from the fact that the Federation was able to locate him in the end, Ma En's strength should not be too far from what he originally imagined.
A perfect specimen.
She continued:
"The current Ma En is not in the Gowen State you think. It is not easy to find him directly in reality, but I have buried nails beside him. I can force him to enter the state if I want to. reality and tell you his position.
"But can you handle him?"
Leiyu said:
"Of course, I am the Son of Thunder."
Moon God said:
"You are considered a strong person among mortals, but that is not enough for me to entrust you with this important task."
Leiyu replied:
"He has a half-sister. According to our investigation, the woman named Chen Yun was Ma En's closest person for more than 20 years, and she had lived together for many years. For a period of time, Ma En was always with her. Lives on her support.
"And we could take her life at any time."
Luna showed a satisfied smile.
