Puppeteer [Interstellar]

"Mother... everything you asked for, I basically did it for you." Al clenched his fist tightly, forcing himself not to be nervous, forcing himself to calm down, he tried to express his inner thoughts to Shelia, so Al said, "And that's all I want, and I disobey you because I don't want Lyle to die."

"He won't die! You have to die!" Xie Liya almost screamed, she looked at her son angrily, "Don't you understand the survival rules of the Hawke family? You have lived for so many years and now you are blind What do you think Rein sent him to this academy for? Just to make the two of you fight, whoever wins! Whoever can survive!"

Al clenched his fists, his fingernails almost piercing through his own palm, Caesar next to him watched this scene without understanding, he only felt that the woman on the screen was very annoying, because that woman made his Al uncomfortable, but Caesar also couldn't cross the virtual screen and beat up the woman inside, so he had to go to Al's side and reach out to grab Al's arm, trying to calm him.

Al refused him, and Al whispered: "Caesar, don't move."

Caesar reluctantly stood still, looking at Al with a sad face, but Al did not pay attention to Caesar, Al raised his head slightly, and looked seriously at Shelia in the virtual screen, his mother .Al seemed to have made up his mind, and Al said, "Mom, I have been living under your arrangements since I was a child, walking on the track you planned."

"I am very grateful to you, really..." Al Chen said, "You let me live to this day, and you gave me countless things that ordinary people don't have."

"But to this day, in fact, my biggest dream is to live like an ordinary person. I am not made for great things. I also know that I have no way to be the so-called heir of Rein. I believe you understand me. Yes, you know that too."

In the video, Shelia seemed to be angry, and angrily swept something she was holding onto the ground, making a bang, and Shelia shouted: "You're here again! Al! I won't allow you to say such cowardice You can’t say such words! You are Rain’s son! You should be like Rain!”

"I don't want to be like him!" Al yelled in a rare way, "...I don't want to be like Rain, I hate him, I hate him, I wish I could kill him!"

After Al vented and said this sentence, he felt regretful. Although this was indeed his true inner thoughts, he knew that he was reckless. He should be calmer and deal with this fact better. , instead of yelling hysterically in front of his mother like he is now, because he knows that Shelia will not understand his thoughts.

Sure enough, Xie Liya didn't make a sound after Al finished yelling. She was still sitting on the chair on the other side of the screen as firmly as Mount Tai. She looked at Al with cold eyes, as if she was not looking at her own son, but a stranger.

After a long time, Xie Liya continued to speak, her tone regained her usual calm, calm but cold, she said: "You should know, Al, I don't like Rain either, and I hate it so much that I even want to kill him." killed him."

Xie Liya is so calm: "Since the day I married Rein, I have been thinking about this problem all the time. I thought about stabbing him to death with a knife while he was sleeping, and thinking about poisoning him while he was eating. When he was up there, I thought about the possibility of pushing him down and killing him, and even when he did that to me, I thought about strangling him."

Shelia has never told Al about her own thoughts and experiences, and Al has almost never known anything about her biological mother. Therefore, when she finished speaking this paragraph, Al was immediately shocked. Er was shocked, causing Al to look at Shelia in astonishment.

Shelia ignored Al's shock, her tone was still cold: "Rain never loved me, and of course I wouldn't love him. The reason why he and I have you is because he wants an heir crazily. He wants to be an heir." To ask someone to take this responsibility for him, he bets everything on you, so from the moment you were born, you were placed with great expectations."

"Al, to be honest, even if you are my child, I still can't treat you correctly from the perspective of a mother, because as long as I think of you as Rain's son, I can't help but want to be indifferent to you , Maybe you have felt it yourself over the years, I know you may not like me or love me very much, you can even hate me."

Shelia looked at Al intently, "But I won't let you die, Al."

"I want you to stand at the highest point, I want you to be strong, stronger than Rain, so I will not allow you to die, even if you don't want to, even if you are tired of all this, I I want you to live without resorting to means, live and become the pinnacle!"

……

Ever since he got back to the base alive through the safe passage, Lyle's head has been in pain. Major Gary sensed Lyle's discomfort and ordered a few students to move both Lyle and his Golem. After going to the medical room, after the doctor's examination, the doctor explained that Lyle's headache was due to his excessive consumption of mental energy.

The puppet's worm-like posture is not completely free of consumption. In addition to consuming the puppet's own physical energy, the puppeteer who is connected to the puppet's spirit will also be crazily consumed by the puppet's mental power, because the puppet needs the master's spirit. Otherwise, the longer the worming time, the mania of the puppet will further expand. Without the comfort and support of the master's spiritual power, they will not be able to return to human form at all.

However, if the puppet master, as the master, consumes too much mental power by the puppet, the puppet master will faint on the spot. some.

This is also the purpose of the existence of the puppet master academy. This academy is to teach the puppet masters to cooperate with their puppets, so that these young puppet masters know how to control the consumption of mental power in battle, control the puppet's battle, Learn to restrain the puppet, and minimize the possibility of such a manic accident.

But even so, a large number of students in the Puppet Master Academy die at the hands of their puppet every year. Not everyone has the talent to perfectly control their puppet. There are too many accidents and dangers. If it is too high, factors of instability abound. Those students who can survive in the end may have some elements of luck in addition to their own strength.

For the puppet mania, there is a set of mental power recovery equipment in the Puppeteer Academy. The doctor knew Lyle's mental exhaustion at a glance, so he was sent to those mental power recovery equipment immediately. to rest.

While Lyle was resting, his puppet was also sent to the doctor. The doctor checked briefly, and then asked the kitchen to provide a lot of fresh meat food. He said that Scar was just exhausted during the battle. Excessive, you can make up for it by eating more.

So, Lyle huddled in the mental power recovery equipment and took a nap with half-closed eyes, while his family Ska huddled in the lounge outside and ate wildly. Immediately, Ska felt energetic, and then Ska climbed into Lyle's mental recovery device, crawled in and lay down with Lyle.

Lyle also felt a little hungry, and Skater, who had sensed this for a long time, left Lyle a delicious meat skewer. Seeing Lyle swallowing the meat skewer into his stomach, Scar seemed Excited, he leaned over and licked the corner of Lyle's mouth.

Then Lyall squinted and smiled at Scar, and kissed Scar's lips back.

After some rest and treatment, the doctor announced that Lyle was fine, and now he can go back to his room and have a good sleep, and he will be almost fully recovered when he wakes up tomorrow.

After announcing all this, the doctor quickly drove Lyle and his family Ska out of the medical room, because the doctor had more patients waiting to be treated, and several seriously injured soldiers under Major Gary were still unconscious and needed someone to take care of them. , so Lyle did not stay to continue to add to the chaos, and led his Scar back to their small room.

Although he said he was back in his own private space, when Lyle was lying on the bed, he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. Ska, who was lying next to him, slept very peacefully. Ska didn't sleep well outside these days. So Lyle didn't force him, and ordered Scar to go to sleep as soon as he entered the door, and Scar almost fell asleep with the pillow on his face.

Scar was asleep, but Lyle was not. He stared wide-eyed at the ceiling in his room, a pure white ceiling with patterned plaster lines around it.

I still have to go see my brother tomorrow.

Lyle was tossing and turning on the bed while thinking in his heart. He was a little worried about Al, because Al and that puppet had formed a temporary bond. Because of this bond, although Lyle felt that his brother would be very reliable, Lyle still stopped. I can't help my worries.

Al people are too gentle, and Lyle always felt that if it was Al's puppet, they might bully him because of Al's gentleness.

In fact, this is impossible. As a master with absolute command power, he will never be bullied by golems, so Lyle's worries are unnecessary.

However, Lyle still couldn't help worrying, he always felt that something happened in a short time, and he couldn't describe this feeling, this feeling of being on pins and needles, having trouble sleeping and eating.
