Chapter 2019: Defeat the Protagonist's Power
Shota felt that something was not right, and the conversation between Dulan and Kuroshima seemed to be turning into a hot-blooded comic.
On one side is Kuroshima, who is talented but doesn't appreciate it, and on the other side is the coach who loves talent so he doesn't give up. For Shouta who loves comics, this plot is very familiar, but what these two guys are discussing in front of them is too scary.
Hei Dao was the murderer, and Dulan knew this, but still indulged her, completely unaware of what he was thinking.
Both of these guys are scary.
Shota now only feels that the world is dark, and there is no place for ordinary people like them to reason.
"Dulan, if you really have huge power, why don't you do the right thing?!" Shota issued the final question: "Isn't it said that 'with great power comes great responsibility'?!"
Questions from the soul.
Dulan looked at Shota. It is estimated that his outlook on life has been greatly impacted by these things. He must not understand why evil is so huge, and where is the justice that can compete with it?
"This is just your wishful thinking. There has never been 'the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility'. It has always been 'the greater the ability, the greater the destruction'. There is no necessary relationship between ability and responsibility. Ability and destruction are directly linked. It's just that Heroes use their abilities to destroy the villain's plans, and villains use their abilities to destroy the world. "As for whether I am doing the right thing, of course you can doubt. You can also wonder why typhoons appear, why cancer breaks out, and why death occurs. Come, ask, typhoons, cancer, and death take away everyone’s lives indiscriminately, why don’t they just take away the bad ones and leave the good ones behind?”
Xiang Tai had a big mouth and was speechless. When Dulan said this, he understood. If Duran is also a typhoon-like existence, then what Duran does is indeed not to protect the weak, but to sweep the world without discrimination and take away countless lives. It is an existence that he cannot understand at all.
"It seems that you kind of understand." Duran said, "This is a good beginning."
Shota murmured: "You mean you can't just take your behavior at face value, but I really don't understand what a murderer can do?"
"Hei Dao is a hunter. She is born with powerful power and perfect disguise. Her existence is proof of the past when human beings used to drink blood." "And killing people does not change the world once or twice, otherwise the profession of assassins will not last long. It's bad. If you kill the right person at the right time, the world will take a completely different path. Lincoln, James, William, Kennedy, and even the presidents of the United States have all been assassinated, which shows that the killer is powerful. It’s important. Killing one person can change a company, a country, and even the world structure. Do you still think Black Island’s abilities are useless?”
Shota only felt a lot of pressure. Dulan was aloof and didn't care about the life and death of their mortals. He was ruthless and cold, dangerous and stubborn. If such a god is really involved, it will be really bad luck for all mankind. Dulan could ignore Heidao's injured lives and what Heidao had done, and could only think about the great cause, the future, and changing the world. This kind of person would be a villain in comics, but in real society, Shota can't find a comic protagonist who can stop Duran.
In fact, Dulan is already used to inspiring people around him to improve themselves, so he never talks about how he helps everyone. He only tells the conspiracy side, appears as a villain, and encourages everyone to work hard against him.
Humanity's ultimate courage and wisdom will shine in the process of confrontation.
Facing Du Lan, who is like a comic book villain, Shota is powerless. After all, he is just a mortal who likes to read comics and reason. How can he change the other person? He also knew that the people Dulan wanted to kill on Black Island must be extraordinary and had nothing to do with their daily lives.
Kennedy's death has no impact at all on the civilians of American imperialism. How should they live their lives?
In fact, the death of a big shot is like an earthquake. The closer people are to the big shot, the stronger the feeling. When the aftermath reaches civilians, they really don't feel much.
Even if there is an economic crisis, many people are still the same as before. They have no stocks or investments. They have savings in the bank and a surplus of food at home, so they are not panicking.
After all, no matter how influential a person is, some people will always be outside the influence, unless the death of one person triggers a series of chain reactions, eventually leading to an avalanche, and the influence expands infinitely.
For example, when Jing Ke stabbed Qin Shihuang to death, the impact would be absolutely unprecedented, and history would definitely be rewritten. But this is just an afterthought. Now there must be some people who will say that if there is no Qin Shihuang, there must be Zhao Shihuang, Wei Shihuang, Yan Shihuang, and Chu Shihuang. One person's influence simply won't be that great and won't destroy history.
So when Duran said that assassination can change the world, Shota was noncommittal, because everything he experienced was established history, without any ifs. He did not think that the lives of the American people would be different if Kennedy lived, and he did not even think that his motherland would be different if Oda Nobunaga lived.
Even if Oda Nobunaga unifies the country, it will eventually be broken by Western powers. Everything is the inertia of history. So Shota didn't think that a person's life or death was really as important as Duran said. He suddenly realized that what was against Duran was not the comic hero, but the inevitability of history.
No matter how hard Duran tries, history will not change, and the world will ruthlessly crush Duran. His efforts are in vain, no matter who he kills. Whether it is the President of the United States or the world's richest man, everything will be repaired and corrected.
Thinking of this, Shota felt much better. First of all, Duran's future has nothing to do with him, and secondly, the inevitability of history will deal a heavy blow to Duran.
Although the justice he insists on in his heart cannot defeat Duran, there is still an invisible force that can defeat him, and everything will be fine.
I don't know what Shota thought of, his expression became quite comfortable. Has he given up?
"Don't mind satisfying my curiosity, what are you thinking about?" Duran asked.
Shota said: "No matter who you want to kill, the conspiracy to change the world is doomed to fail. The world will never change because of the death of one or two people." He firmly believes this.
Duran blinked and shrugged: "If the world gets better, I guess you won't think of my goodness, you will just take it for granted, and naturally I won't change the world. After all, humans are used to denying the achievements of others and exaggerating the guilt of others to get psychological comfort. I don't care, I'm just a man of action."
Shota said that this guy is shameless. Will the world not get worse? No, it won't get better or worse. Everything is the choice of fate. Duran's actions are at most a stone thrown into the sea, which can't cause any waves.
In fact, Duran's actions are quite reliable, but these cannot be told to others, otherwise others will become dependent. And the means Duran wants to use are indeed very extreme. He wants everyone to think that there must be other ways to replace it. This is also to prevent everyone from slacking off because of Duran's existence.
