[Comprehensive] The Great Devil
Chapter 56 Paradox 15
"No—Selah!—"
When he noticed that the terrifying energy began to gradually form a violent vortex in the room, Charles took another step closer to her, his voice was interrupted and fragmented by the rapid rotation of the airflow——
"Once you do this... Serra, there's no turning back!"
The woman in the center of the storm turned her head when she heard this, and stared at the young man with a half-smile, "Turn back?"
"Remember what you told me when I first came to you?—"
He was slightly taken aback.
—I'm sorry... please forgive my selfishness, Miss Milt.There is only so much I can do.
"And now, I'll give you this sentence back." She smiled slightly, word for word, "I'm sorry too, Charles—"
"From the beginning to the end, I was a selfish person."
"You did it for them... and I will never forgive you."
"I'm not for them!" Charles' eyes were moist, he stared straight at the smiling woman, and there was an almost desperate pleading in his voice, "—Selah, there is a beast trapped in each of us, I Yes—but the difference between humans and animals is whether we let our instincts rule our emotions and reason. If you let it dominate you, you give up yourself, and even those good memories that still exist in your heart...then we will To be what?—an unscrupulous beast through and through, destroying everything and, ultimately, himself.”
He stretched out his hand towards her, and the rapidly rotating airflow cut his skin continuously, making sharp slits, but he didn't care, his eyes were bright, and he stared at her with an expectant smile, "I know your There are still those good things in my heart... Selah, I know they are still there-I have always believed that no amount of suffering can completely break you, you are a man of faith, and you are braver than you think , stronger, more gentle—and I, I will never abandon you."
"Don't be tormented by the beast in your heart, don't become the horrible monster you say, with only hatred in your eyes... Think of Raven, think of all your friends, think of our days in the castle, the anger will eventually come Calm down, your heart was never a barren—”
"You have a beautiful heart—remember, Sierra? I hope you'll always be this beautiful."
Charles' finger was dripping with blood, but he seemed to feel no pain, and stretched out his hand straight to her.
"I'll take you home... okay, Serra?"
She quietly stared at the persistent man, the violent energy around her gradually subsided, and with a bang, all the bullets lost control and fell all over the ground.
Charles and Eric breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to show a smile, Eric's expression changed, killing intent gathered in his eyes, and he shouted loudly, "Be careful—!"
After seeing the terrifying mutant gradually calm down, the soldier who was nearly suffocated by the airflow immediately fell to the ground and passed out.However, there was another one struggling to get up, seeing the energy densely covering her side gradually dissipating, he saw this opportunity, and pulled the trigger again without hesitation——
"No!—" Charles shrank his pupils, and rushed over to block the shot without even thinking about it!
Eric waved his hand subconsciously to deflect the trajectory of the bullet a little, but it was too late to be caught off guard.
The bullet grazed Charles' neck, splashed a spray of blood, and then flew towards the woman behind him, sinking into her shoulder in an instant.
Sera let out a low snort, and she slowly stretched out her hand, opened her palm, stared at the scarlet blood, and fell silent for a moment.
Eric immediately controlled the metal to bind the soldier tightly, and then looked at the woman in the middle of the room, his whole body tensed.
Charles' neck was grazed by bullets, and blood snaked into his collar.However, he didn't feel the pain at all, he just stared at the other party intently, his lips moved slightly, "Selah..."
She suddenly smiled softly.Then he raised his head slowly and looked at him with a smile.
"I know, sooner or later there will be such a day..." She murmured softly, "In the end, you still chose them."
"It's the second time, Charles, they shot at me." She shook her head, her tone calm, "There will never be a third time."
Ding.The bullet slowly retreated from the wound on her shoulder and fell to the ground.The gunshot wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if nothing had happened.
But everything has happened.There was no way to stop her anymore.
Charles watched helplessly as the air fluctuations that had been gradually disappearing became violent again, more violently, more violently, and more terrifyingly than last time—the ceiling and walls began to melt, turning into powder inch by inch, instruments, operating table, floor , the curtain...all were stirred into the terrifying energy riot, and were melted away within a second.Charles and Eric couldn't even put up a fight and were thrown aside mercilessly, watching as the group of soldiers was swallowed up in front of them by nothingness from feet to heads, leaving only a speck of ash that was blown away by the wind. .
It's not just this room, as she walked out step by step, the terrifying power continued to spread outward, as if her feet had turned into a black hole, and wherever she went, she would bring complete silence and darkness— — engulfed the gates, corridors, walls, ceiling, all the soldiers who heard it, the scientists who were fleeing, and—
Sierra paused, and she narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the old man who was frantically typing in the password at the end but made repeated mistakes because of trembling fingers.
"Ah...it's you," she walked towards him slowly, watching him slapping the door switch tremblingly and almost frantically, with a gentle and friendly smile, "I remember you...you like playing games, right?"
"No, no no no—" the researcher shook his head immediately, his eyes full of fear and pleading, "it's the mutants—they sent you here, and they told me to 'treat' you well...I didn't mean it, I Just following orders - leave me alone! It's not me - it's not my fault -"
"But you dissected more than 100 of my kind with your own hands, and it is said that they all died painfully." Sera smiled unchanged, "Look...you have a pair of very beautiful eyes, maybe I should be gentler, so that we You can play for a while-"
The other party was limp on the ground, looking at her with a white face as she slowly raised her hand——
There was an extremely shrill scream in the research institute!
"Selah!" Charles and Eric followed her up, and at a glance, they saw a man lifted up in the air by the air current at the end of the corridor that had been turned into ruins, his eyes were gouged out, and he became two bloody His scalp seemed to be cut open by a sharp knife in the middle, red and white liquid and tissue flowed all over his face, even his chest was brutally cut open, and a large amount of blood gushed out to stain his clothes——
However, even after suffering such torture, he still did not die, he was dying, because the energy was continuously injected into his body to slowly repair his wound, and as long as there was a sign of healing, he would suffer the same punishment as before——
You can't really live, you can't die.
Charles gasped, and even Eric, who had expected what would happen, looked shocked and pursed his lips.
Hearing his call, the woman who was enjoying everything quietly paused, and then slowly turned around. Her long hair fluttered softly and mistyly in the air, completely unaffected by the violent circling airflow around her. The stark contrast endows her with a kind of almost magical beauty, as if she is the goddess of death that every criminal must encounter in the nightmare after nightfall, with a friendly smile on her face and a dagger in her hand behind her back.
"Do you also want to prevent me from judging the culprit, Charles?" She tilted her head slightly and asked softly.
He looked at her sadly, and after a few seconds of silence, he slowly shook his head, "No... Selah. I know that your heart is full of hatred and anger now, and you want to punish everyone who has done something to you, I can understand... but let those innocent people go, okay? Not everyone here has blood on their hands, many of them just follow orders and never personally participate in the experiment—”
"Executing the order?" Sera smiled inexplicably, "You know, Charles, many times, spectating is as cruel as murder."
She said, the smile slowly disappearing on her face, expressionless, looking at him like looking at a stranger, "If you can't control my thoughts, Charles, you are nothing to me. "
"While I still have some fond memories of the old days... stay away from me."
"Otherwise, I don't know what I would do."
After she finished speaking, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and the crackling sound came out, and all the laboratory doors that were closed to the mutants were melted in an instant. She watched a dozen of the same kind who came out with uneasy expressions and looked at the three of them. , turned his head and smiled slightly at Eric.
"They're yours."
Then she walked past the scientist who could only endure the severe pain silently because of the damaged vocal cords, and all the doors in front of her were melted without exception, and she walked out slowly without hindrance, and her figure gradually disappeared In the silver-white snow and ice outside.
Charles didn't go after him, he knew it was too late.In the end, he lost her anyway.
The funny thing is, before that, all he had for her was pity, appreciation, and liking for her more than love.And until this moment, after she was completely awakened by the extreme pain and despair, and completely got rid of the shackles of humanity and emotion... he really fell in love with her.
We are always more likely to fall in love with someone who hurts us.
Moldy lilies tend to smell worse than weeds, and she was never Charles's Sierra after that.
——She is Milt, a fifth-level mutant after awakening, the "Nihil Lady" with the power to melt and reconstruct.
The author has something to say: Popular science time: About the level of mutants.
There has never been a detailed grading description in the comics. Most of the existing answers are based on the conclusions of the known information of the comics and the inferences of the fans. There is no unified source to support them, and they are just some kind of reference for fans.
1. Ipsilon class, accounting for about 20%, have major physical defects and are weak.
2. Delta level, 50%, the appearance of ordinary people, the ability is weak but can be controlled.
3. Gamma level, powerful mutation ability, but has defects that seriously hinder their lives, such as little naughty.
4. Alpha level, about 10%, extremely powerful mutant features without important defects, such as Professor X and White Queen.
5. Omega level, the most powerful mutant, can control matter, energy, have strong potential, almost immortal.
Of course, this classification is relative, and there is also a principle that some abilities restrain each other.for reference only.
I remember that there was once a post evaluating a professor, and a sentence in it was liked by many people: a pathetic idealist.
Although it is not enough to summarize everything, there is some truth to it.The movie actually beautifies the professor in many places (of course, it may be because of Yimei’s blue eye filter). In the comics, he did use his ability to tamper with other people’s memories many times, such as deleting the His memory of his girlfriend secretly manipulated Lao Wan's life.Although the starting point of some things is good, it is still a little bit different from his idea of "guiding and instructing young mutants, but he will not decide their future without authorization".Generally speaking, he is a good person and a spiritual leader, but at the same time he is also an ordinary person with his own desires.There is no need to position him from the subjective point of view of the heroine (after all, she is a villain), and he is still very young and has not experienced any turning points in his life. Let's treat him objectively. (Anyway, I was only attracted by Yimei’s face ==)
