MTL - Overturned Tower-v2 Chapter 23 mindless and unhappy

When the inferior and strangled came, I really didn't have the time to appreciate the unique style of Yongquan Island.

On the one hand, it was because their condition was really bad, and on the other hand, it was also because the shock that Tongshen Island and Sun Island had brought to them was too great.

The grand perspective of sitting in an airship and overlooking the land from top to bottom is enough to completely reshape a person's three views.

—like strangulation. When he saw the solemn and sacred Sun Island, his whole mind seemed to be washed and reshaped.

Now every time he thinks of the Sun Island, which is surrounded by thirteen large and small disks, his mind becomes peaceful and he realizes how small and ordinary he is.

Regarding this point, the godfather can't do it, and neither can Zhongxiang.

Even though Strangled has left downtown now, lives in the sun, and has a decent job.

But he still didn't think that he would become ordinary and lose his vigor.

Even if he can understand that the "Godfather" has become a big man who can be accepted by people, and even has many followers... However, strangling himself still did not give his loyalty.

He is not a tamed lion who can endure the humiliation of a lion dancer. The tiger skin he wears all the time proves this point.

Of course, his reluctance to obey the godfather is not because of the past of the godfather who used to be a singer and idol "Xiao Liuli". Strangling also disdains to look down on others because of stupid reasons such as appearance, gender, spiritual relatives, and occupation.

If you don't offer your loyalty as a subordinate just because of this reason, it's like saying "if the godfather hadn't been a woman", "if he hadn't been a singer or an idol", then he would be willing to obey the other party— Saying such uninteresting words will only degrade the value of your loyalty, as well as your personality.

The reason why he is still unwilling to be completely loyal to the godfather is very simple.

Because of the pride of being strangled, he is doomed not to be able to live under others for a long time. And his wisdom and sobriety made him realize this clearly.

His attitude towards his mentor Zhongxiang is very respectful, which is based on a kind of "filial piety", and also because his mentor does not hold power, and does not want to rule him or control him—if he really wants to control himself , then strangulation is bound to lead to rebellion.

He will make himself king. Even if it is just a lonely king alone—even if he is imprisoned in a nutshell, he still wants to be the king himself.

— not to rule others, but simply not to be ruled.

Therefore, Hang Ling also clearly understands...his ability as a leader is far inferior to that of the "Godfather". But he also doesn't throw tantrums out of the blue, inappropriately, or like a baby.

His clear will allows him to understand what he "should" do.

Because of this, despite his unwillingness, he has obeyed the leadership of the godfather for more than half a year.

And when he was the "subordinate" of the godfather, no matter what kind of dissatisfaction and arrogance he harbored in his heart, strangling would never let him go. He will always take every job that falls on him seriously-even if it may cost him his life, he will never back down.

Disrespecting the leader, disobeying the rule... But at the same time, he will complete the task 100% seriously, even at the expense of his own life. Strangling is just such a contradiction.

But in general, his core is "pride".

Of course, it is also because of this... the fire of the furnace that was born based on "wrath", strangulation is no longer available.

When he sees a wider world, when he soberly recognizes more truths... the endless "anger" hidden in the flames begins to be gradually contaminated by arrogance and jealousy, and loses that purity.

Specifically, it was from the winter half a year ago—from the time when the godfather participated in the emperor's talk show, and the "Fuji Society" was completely cleansed and able to stand under the sun.

Strangulation is finally letting go of everything in the past.

He could truly confirm that the godfather did not tell half a lie. he is

The person who, after getting out of the swamp, is still willing to pull out the people who are struggling in the swamp one by one...not the kind of person who is still trapped in the quagmire by teasing and bullying at will because he is on the shore.

Because his perspective is different... He has never put that little quagmire in his eyes or in his heart. From beginning to end, all he looked at was the sky.

These people cannot be his opponents, nor can they be his opponents.

It is this kind of unconditional grace that makes those traitors who don't know what rules, promises, and discipline are, willing to respect him as their leader... or, in other words, "serve him as their king."

Realize that your time has indeed passed. The anger in Hang Ling's heart finally dissipated... replaced by confusion.

—In the words of Zhongxiang, he was not suitable for the way of the furnace.

Because his vision is not wide enough.

He never lived for others, for the people.

It is precisely because of this that the eyes of strangulation do not see the pain that people have suffered, and they will not be angry because of it. He does not have the decisive desire to "promote himself and sublimate to obtain great wisdom", so he cannot forge his soul in the midst of suffering.

From the beginning to the end, he only had himself in his eyes. What he seeks is freedom, transcendence, and unrestraint.

For Strangling, anger is just anger, and pain is just pain—anger will not pour into it to become his strength, and pain will not sharpen his edge.

Like the Godfather, they are not suitable for the way of the furnace. None of them had that fiery anger in their hearts.

It is not a blind dedication, nor a blazing burn, but a slow and painful determination to ignite oneself and illuminate the world for others.

It is impossible for such a person to survive and grow up in this world. There is no place for them, either uptown or downtown.

But also because of this, after letting go of his own burden and no longer needing to guard those younger brothers who followed him, Strangling was finally able to find his own path.

So starting from mid-December, strangling left the "Fire of Pain" and stepped into the "Mountain of Madness" after bidding farewell to the city.

He was no longer in pain, nor was he angry. However, the flames condensed from the past "pain" and "anger" can still be transformed into the adjacent path.

And there are only three paths here...

He can choose to embark on the road of "frustration" and go to "rage" or "madness"; or embark on the road of "despair" and go to the area representing "reflection" or "degeneration".

——Or after being tempered by "madness", reshape one's own pride, or fall into the same "madness" as the end of the "road of frustration".

The destination that Strangling wants to go to is a place that symbolizes "pride" and can exchange one's arrogance for strength.

After months of ignorance without knowing the day and night, he finally woke up from the endless madness.

He did not succumb to madness, but came to his senses—smoothly passed from the end of the "Mountain of Madness" to the "High Cliff of Victory".

He completely burned out all his anger and turned it into a ruthless light representing "arrogance".

He is much weaker now than he was when he was at his peak... He is much weaker than he was back then.

Because the emotion of "arrogance" is not as good as "fury" and is more suitable for fighting with others. The spells manifested from this emotion will not be as dangerous, manic and deadly as "Rage". And more importantly, he abandoned his "school".

Until he finds a new mentor, Strangler is now Mage Yeluzi.

However, it is a blessing in disguise.

After losing the boundless anger that had always been entangled in his heart, Hang Ling's character also became calmer. Although a mind full of arrogance is also not suitable for thinking, at least it will not fight with people inexplicably because of passion like in the past.

On the contrary, that kind of pure pride without any inferiority complex breeds the light of compassion.

Today, his temper is actually much better than that of the inferior who possesses the power of "empty and silent".

It was the inferior one... After the irrational mania of the past faded away, the emptiness lingering in his heart made him even more irritable. However, the strong sense of emptiness that doesn't care about anything and that nothing can satisfy makes him look at things extremely rationally. Because he doesn't care about anything, this also makes his perspective wider and farther... Things that he had never seen before can be easily understood after calming down.

After that, the inferior also understood how naive and stupid he was before.

The former bad guys are actually cold-faced and kind-hearted. But now, although his expression is indifferent and he no longer has a bad face, his heart has become indifferent... And because he cared too much about everything~www.novelbuddy.com~, he was almost dismissed by everyone. Cheating back and forth, teasing at will.

Now he has become a "silent voice", after losing his warmth, impatience, and short-sightedness, he also gained the opposite ability.

If you want to say that the inferior and the strangulation have something in common...

That is, they have all stepped into the exact opposite of who they were a year ago.

If you tell Bird of Paradise, she will never believe it—this tough guy lion with scars on his body is actually only 28 years old this year; The "predecessors" are actually only twenty-six years old.

In the words of Russell Education Paradise Bird, it is: "Young people in their twenties will easily encounter things that reshape their past outlook on life. It's not that they are too fickle, it's just that they haven't finalized yet."

Russell still has a saying about their combination now.

— called "brainless and unhappy".
