[Comprehensive Anglo-American] The First Mutant

Wade held a ball of nirvana fire in his hands, in order not to disturb the rest of the souls farther away, and to save energy, he, Zero and Loki almost relied on each other to move forward.In the abyss where you can't reach your fingers, the fire can only illuminate a radius of one meter. I don't know how many suffering souls are hidden in the darkness, because the sins of life were thrown here...

I heard from Glauron that these black mist are magical, and if they are contaminated with a little bit, they will be eroded by it, leaving only infinite pain and despair in what they see, know and feel.The Nirvana Fire dispelled them, from the black mist to the dead souls, so Wade could feel that the dead who had been attracted by the light in the darkness were greedily watching all this.

The flame not only represents light, but also represents hope, whether it burns them up or illuminates an inch of darkness... They fear it, and yearn for it.Even though they couldn't see clearly, Wade knew that they were surrounded by the dead.Follow them slowly, as if as soon as this flame goes out, they will all be swallowed by these dead.

Loki was sweating a little on his forehead, and there were too many erratic dead people around them, and they were too hideous. If he didn't say it, he couldn't even imagine that they were "human beings".Obviously no one is executing the execution here, and no one is deliberately torturing them, but they all seem to be immersed in great pain... Maybe they can't even see them, but they just feel the light and approach them, but they are still immersed in their own world?

They didn't know how long they walked, and the atmosphere made people feel that time passed very slowly.But Wade could feel that they were approaching, he kept walking towards the darkest and thickest place, he evaluated everything by the speed of energy consumption...

"Here we are," he said to Zero and Loki.

Already at the deepest point, the front is still dark, Zero is moving forward a little to try to see clearly, when he is suddenly startled by an eye that lights up in the darkness.

Huge, deep red, like blood that is about to solidify, zero spirit flickered, when he saw the giant black-feathered bird that slowly stood up and surrounded them, his heart moved, and he focused his super power on his eyes and looked at the bird .

This is the original image of Phoenix. In Egypt, it was the remains of the god who was enshrined and divided.

Phoenix can still transform himself into a human form after sealing his own energy. He came to the atrium with a mission to give blessings to the creatures here, so that they can also have the same ability as several other countries to protect themselves.

In pursuit of such fairness, and because of the "betrayal" of the two great kingdoms of God, Phoenix sealed his own memory as if he was angry, and compressed himself to be no different from ordinary people as he told Eternal. Except for some abilities, nothing else is needed.

To feel the pain of living beings, feel their joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys to grow, Phoenix thought so at the beginning.

He heard another heartbeat in his mother's womb, which did not belong to the mother, and they "meeted" for the first time when they were born.For some reason, the baby boy had gray skin and blue lips, and Phoenix was perfectly normal.

Their mother was terrified, and Phoenix heard from their conversation that they thought the child was ominous and deserved to be drowned.And since Phoenix came here for the better survival of human beings, this is his "brother" - even if Phoenix didn't understand it well at the time, the throbbing of blood and the surging power in his body all told him that he should make a difference.

Later Eun Sabah Nur, who called himself Apocalypse, was the first human to receive the blessing of Phoenix.Phoenix allowed him to be thrown into the river but was able to breathe, and he floated down the river to a place Phoenix didn't know.As a baby, Phoenix couldn't choose. His "healthy child" was taken back by his mother and pretended to be only him.

His father was the small leader of a large tribe, and he had some abilities. At that time, the matrilineal clan had collapsed, and men started the patrilineal clan with their own strength over women. Women's status in the tribe was not high.His father had a lot of women, and he basically didn't marry them back. Like his mother, he only cares about having children after a spring breeze, and there are many times when he doesn't have children.

Phoenix has many brothers, but he always remembers the heartbeat that accompanied him for several months.He often thinks of him, and gradually learns to use his abilities. After knowing that he is different, Phoenix thinks that his existence makes that child weird.

His blessings can give people various abilities, such as accelerated running, strong physique, and special abilities. It is inevitable that they will naturally have different looks from others.Those who have received his blessing are subconsciously close to him, which makes Phoenix a priest of the tribe.After helping his tribe grow stronger and stronger, becoming the largest tribe in the vicinity, he still couldn't escape from that chagrin.

One of those who happened to receive the blessing had the gift of searching, and Phoenix found the child with his help.At that time, it was time to call each other teenagers. He was adopted by a sturdy desert wanderer and grew up to be a warrior until he was 17 years old... All he was accompanied by was a weapon in his hand and endless battles. The grounded Phoenix is ​​completely different.

En still remembers the first time he saw Phoenix. He came to their camp with a team of guards, found him in the dim tent, who was healing himself, held his hand, and gave him a strange but familiar warmth. Pass it to him, and say to the leader, "I'm going to take him."

The leader of the clan, who was uncompromising in words, did not dare to raise his head in front of Phoenix. He was so humble that he flattered him, and he promised repeatedly, even daring not to accept the thank you gift from Phoenix.He thought that Phoenix bought him back to be a slave, and he didn't feel unwilling at all...

Rogues As "rogues" without a fixed residence, their camps don't exist for more than three days.Chasing tribes or hunting teams that are weaker than them, breaking in and snatching all the supplies, keeping the men who are attractive, and killing those who are not, and the women are tortured overnight...they have a rule , the captured man who wants to survive must vote for himself with the blood of his own clan. The bloodier and crueler it is, the more it reflects his determination. The leader believes that such a person can only risk his life in the next battle... …those who didn't risk their lives, those who flinched, basically died, or were wounded in battle.

If the injured person didn't have the strength to go back to the team, keep up with the team's footsteps, and even protect his injured knife, the result would not be much better.

En didn't know why he was adopted by such a person, but he grew up like this since he was a child. He learned how to draw a knife before he could speak fluently, and he punched faster than he could speak.Fierce, utilitarian, cunning... Phoenix is ​​not his opponent at all.

Eun quickly figured out what Phoenix was thinking, his guilt about himself and his abilities.He realized that this was an excellent opportunity, and his ambitions increased as Phoenix gave him more blessings. It was not that Phoenix would not care about him or teach him a lesson, but compared to living in a tribe, priests who don't know how to suffer , taking advantage of his guilt towards himself, En can slip Phoenix around.

Does Phoenix really understand?Not really.

It's just that the first heartbeat is so close, and the life at first sight is so special.

His disaster may have originated from him.

His wish is for the better existence of human beings.

In that primitive and chaotic era, everyone was looking for a way out of the future. When today's food is enough to satisfy the hunger, the outline of tomorrow and the day after tomorrow should also start to be imagined.Sometimes Phoenix is ​​indeed persuaded by En, such as that they should unite and gather a stronger force to fight against nature and survive better.Sometimes Phoenix objected to En's approach, such as being harsh to the captives... Of course, En would follow Phoenix, no matter what was in his heart, what he showed would always be respect and gratitude to Phoenix.

Let Phoenix can't help but bet more trust, because it seems like they are in harmony.En's bravery and loyalty, his wishes and Phoenix's wishes seem to overlap.

In this way, they unified Egypt for the first time, and the mutant army created by Phoenix was invincible. The more En understood the magic of Phoenix, the more he couldn't move his eyes away.

No matter how much Phoenix loves him, how well it seems to fit him, if it is not his own, how can he use it with peace of mind?Even with the help of Phoenix, En's superpowers are the most powerful... After all, it's different.

Things like ambition and greed may not be rooted in En's bloodline-so Phoenix began to be satisfied after unifying Egypt, and wanted to stop and develop well.And well, he saw the world and saw infinite possibilities.Phoenix, who began to be content with the status quo, made En feel constrained. Similarly, the preciousness of Phoenix's ability, his prestige in the group, and his rebelliousness... Jean gradually felt that the thoughts agitating in his heart became more and more vivid.

If only I could get the power of Phoenix.

It would be great if it could replace the existence of Phoenix.

The world would be his and his alone.

No one can take it away.

"Really, don't you know at all?" Zero murmured.

When En awakened the ability to rob others' abilities, this sense of crisis was so mixed that it was difficult to calm down.He is just a soul-like existence, accompanying Phoenix from ignorance to the present, he can see and vaguely feel Phoenix's thoughts, but he cannot let Phoenix discover him.

The white-haired Phoenix was looking at the children's paintings at home at the time. It was strange that his face was full of vicissitudes and was very different from when he was young, but Zero still felt that he had amazing beauty.Just like every time he praises him obsessively, there has never been any falsehood...

Phoenix is ​​different from En, he has the ability to maintain his youth, but he can also calmly accept his aging... He feels that this is the process of life, just like he can do his best in the battle, enjoy the killing, and he can also be at the end of the war Finally, I sincerely pray for the peace of the deceased, accept the peaceful life and devote myself to making such tranquility and beauty last longer and better.

Phoenix can accept every aspect of life calmly, and strive to discover the beauty in it.

In the eyes of some people, is this hopeless, self-deceiving, and losing blood?

Zero also saw Sauron in the so-called "some people".He wasn't sure if it was the Sauron of Alfheim, but after hearing Phoenix call him that, he accepted him as an apostle.

He saw greed stirring in their hearts, saw their daring thoughts...

And Phoenix is ​​still slowly flipping through the children's childish paintings?

Really, don't know any of this at all?

"I know..." he sighed.

"?!" Ling floated to Phoenix's side, "Phoenix?"

"It's just that there are always some evil thoughts in people's minds from time to time, and most of the time they don't really take action..." Phoenix looked at where Zero was, "It's probably like, you want to hug me countless times , but never actually do anything?"

Zero felt his head heat up, and he almost didn't dare to speak for a while, "But this is different, since you feel it, you should know that some thoughts are not just a whim..."

He will never hurt Phoenix, all his abilities, everything about him, Zero swore to protect him, how could he hurt or even plunder?All of this is so special because it belongs to Phoenix...

"It's just not the end, I just don't want to believe it..." Phoenix lowered his head, his old hands were wrinkled, holding the book, his voice was a little soft, "I don't want to believe it, I try my best to change, will it still end the same ?”

"I can vaguely feel you after the age of six, I can sense your knowledge and thoughts at the age of nine, and I can vaguely see your past at the age of 11... Based on what you know, I can roughly see what will happen now... I work hard The change, apart from not directly hypnotizing them, can be considered exhausting."

"You..." Zero was startled, he didn't expect Phoenix to see him too.

He has never acted!Because of his ignorance of himself, Zero felt that Phoenix didn't see him.

Otherwise, why did Phoenix keep ignoring him?

But when the words came to his lips, Zero didn't ask this sentence...

He asked: "So the history I see now is the one you tried to modify? Did you... give up?"

"You are such an interesting kid," Phoenix said without answering him, "I want to keep this memory, maybe I will understand later..."

Keep this memory, and understand later...

Does this mean to give up?

"I'm so strong, so I can naturally bear everything," Phoenix smiled. "So before it really came, I trusted them. Even if I get hurt, I won't do anything."

"You know..." They didn't change.

Phoenix put his finger on his lips and made a silence gesture, "Even if you are my future apostle, don't speak ill of my current apostle in front of me. You know very well, they... are all watched by me. The kids who grow up..."

"...I always, listen to you." Zero slowly looked out the window.

He heard the footsteps of those rebels.

"zero?"

"exist."

"It's time for you to go back. Take Loki and go through the kingdom of death to the world of eternity. Let Loki help you find eternity, and then find me."
