Volume 13: The Son of Darkness, the Lord of the Netherworld, the Happy One Chapter 77: Legends Are More Than Just Stories
"I had planned to commit suicide before. Regardless of whether I carried it out in the end, judging by my usual behavior, I was definitely heading down the path of dying if I didn't succeed."
"If I was really a hypocritical person, I wouldn't have almost committed suicide after realizing my hypocrisy. I would have just ignored these things and pretended to be myself again."
"I am Rota. I was possessed by a time-space anomaly due to my future vision. Perhaps for the sake of self-protection, I did not report this incident, but I have been trying hard to suppress the occurrence of the anomaly."
"Also been preparing for his own death!"
"This is my determination, the determination not to be controlled by fate!"
"Suicide before it's irreversible is decisive, but suicide when everything can still move forward is just cowardice!" Rota's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he gradually had a clearer yearning for his own future.
In the future vision, the image of myself following behind a man was fluctuating rapidly.
At the same time, there seemed to be some force at work in the future, as if to solidify this future.
However, when Rota looked over with a resolute gaze, the power seemed to freeze there.
"You may be able to create another person who is exactly like me, and even has a similar personality, but that person will definitely not be me."
"Among ten thousand futures, I might choose you, but the future that appears must be me living independently, or my corpse!"
As Rota finished speaking, the future began to loosen and then disappeared.
The inner will and one's own yearning for happiness converge at this moment to form one's own unique thoughts, and then in turn form a unique chimeric relationship with those forces. This is the contract.
Especially with the power of the raccoon master, at this time they coexisted in an independent yet united way.
The power of coexistence was fed back to the raccoon master at this moment, complementing him to a certain extent.
The soul of a general was originally just a projection of history, but now it has gradually become a real soul.
The addition of historical legends has settled down at this moment.
At this time, the soul will not dissipate even if it leaves the host, because their essence has become a real individual.
After receiving this supplement, the expression of the copy of the raccoon master became more agile, and at the same time, he had the opportunity to cut off the entanglement with the original.
If legend is the deconstruction of history, then myth is the sublimation of legend.
One is the original text, and the other is the deconstructed existence.
The copy is not the original, but to a certain extent, it has superiority over the original.
Of course, this point can also be deconstructed into a pile of shit.
After all, the public's judgment on a thing can never be accurate and comprehensive.
If you only see one side and then characterize it, the deconstructed thing will be one-sided.
Nowadays, many generals are actually facing this problem.
Because of the distortion in the process of historical dissemination, some of their noble aspects were not well disseminated. Instead, some of their lowly deeds became legends and were spread by countless people.
To the extent that even now, they seem low and inferior compared to the originals.
The raccoon master does not have this dilemma, and has even been sublimated in certain areas.
The original continuously created flames in the darkness, trying to restrict the movement of the copy.
From that moment on, the speed of the copy suddenly increased again.
The same was true of Rota's figure, which blended into the darkness very naturally, making it impossible for the shadow cat people to track her.
Moreover, at this moment, Yuandian felt that he had changed from facing one impostor to facing two impostors, and the opponents' strength had increased a lot.
The lit fire seemed to be unable to restrict Rota and the copy's actions at this moment.
Yuandian kept swinging the shackles, rotating them around himself to form a defensive circle, with increasing force. When the shackles hit the nearby building, the cement and the steel bars inside were directly smashed.
The originally stable building became shaky after losing several load-bearing walls.
Collapse towards this side.
Yuandian watched all this with a stern gaze, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate all darkness.
As a historical original, she will not be harmed by current events.
A collapsed building will only become a limitation to others, not to yourself.
She can even walk through walls to a certain extent, after all, she is just a historical original.
"So, if they don't want to be disturbed by the collapsed building, they must contribute to this matter."
It is difficult for the building to hurt him, but once the copy is involved in the collapse of the building, the damage caused by the collapse of the building will become real damage.
This is one way to circumvent the original historical text and harm her.
Although the previous fight was short, the opponent must have already tested out everything that needed to be tested.
"So, will you show up? Show up on top of this collapsing building and help bury me."
"Then you will fall into my trap."
"But if you don't show up, the debris from the collapsed building will become an obstacle to your high-speed movement."
"What will you do?" Yuandian will never admit defeat, this is her life creed.
Because once you admit defeat, everything is over.
She refused to admit defeat when she became a slave, so she found an opportunity to kill her master at the first opportunity.
She refused to give up when she had the chance to escape, so she turned around and rescued more cat people.
She refused to give up in her stable life, so she gathered the cat people and launched a night attack, killing the nobles and gaining the reputation of the cat-people raccoon lord.
It was precisely because of her unwillingness to admit defeat that she was subsequently involved in increasingly large-scale wars.
At that time, although the cat people began to grow stronger, they were still unable to fight against many people at one time, so the cat people failed, and she also failed.
But she still refused to admit defeat.
"This is a chance to defeat this imposter, come back to life in this era, and then gather the "mature" cat-people to climb to the supreme peak once again!"
This is the raccoon lady. Legend has it that she was deconstructed, except for the part where she resisted slavery.
Let it become a resistance force in the darkness, and sublimate the replica from this aspect.
But the original belief is not just that. She is also in the darkness, but she wants to be the only one who dares to shine in the darkness.
The tactics were laid out almost like an open conspiracy, and the building collapsed while the thoughts were flowing.
It was at this moment that a dark shadow appeared above.
"It appeared!" Yuandian glared, and then his figure turned into flames.
There is no historical record about how the raccoon master died in the end.
According to legend, it was because the raccoon lady intervened in the second war that the cat-people kingdom she established was attacked by several other countries and eventually destroyed. A group of people broke into the luxurious palace she had just built.
In the palace, her guards fought desperately and were willing to continue fighting with their bodies even after their death.
In the end, the raccoon king was killed and the luxurious palace was burned down.
But in fact, the fire was started by the raccoon master.
She set herself on fire and then fought a desperate battle with those who wanted to capture her, vowing never to be a slave again.
The death was extremely tragic, and at that time the Cat People Kingdom still worshipped the raccoon master very much. Once they knew this, perhaps the country that was on the verge of collapse might even break out in another resistance battle.
So those who invaded at that time made the first falsification of history.
The raccoon master went from burning himself to death in a fight with others to hiding behind his guards, and was hacked to death by them after the guards died.
History is lost in this narrative.
"A fake is a fake!" Fire flickered on Yuan Dian's body, illuminating all the darkness in an instant.
When the world is dark, she is the brightest beam of light!
The speed of the original text burning in the flames was instantly increased to the point of being invisible. In the blink of an eye, it was aimed at the black shadow that appeared in the building. A burst of fire burst out, trying to ignite the black shadow as well.
However, at this moment, there was a flash of light in the black shadow's hand.
Energy bullets burst out from the muzzle, and the bright light from the muzzle illuminated the face of the shadow. It was Rota, not the copy.
The energy bomb collided with the flames, but was swallowed up by the flames.
As the historical force transformed at the end of the raccoon master, the power of this fire far exceeds the normal level.
However, he was blocked for a moment.
Another dark shadow had already fallen from a distance.
It was like a ray of light falling into the world.
What the copy of the raccoon wants to do is to change the slavery system and overthrow the original person who wants to be the boss over others!
"Cat people need freedom, not superiority." The will of the replica was clearly stated at this moment.
"Perhaps all of this is a legend created by outsiders through you, the original text, but I was indeed born with the desire for freedom of many cat people."
"Because of this, the cat people's worship of the raccoon master has not stopped until today."
“As legends spread, they reflect people’s own needs.”
"The common need of cat people, or other humans, is actually to liberate themselves, which is why your story has been spread for so long and focuses on the resistance to rescue slaves."
This is the meaning of the existence of legends. It is not just the legend itself, but more of a reflection of the emotions and needs of the communicator himself.
This is why some masterpieces become masterpieces.
"I am the raccoon master, but I am not you!" The copy said as it waved its claws, and the shackles that the original had swung over were broken.
