Chapter 2433: Battle for the Cloak (20)

Chapter 2464: The Battle for the Cape (Twenty)

Is Robin King a person who does not seek fame and fortune?

Of course not. On the contrary, he is an attention-driven personality, which is also a common problem of many antisocial personality patients. Many of their antisocial behaviors are aimed at attracting extra attention from others. The attention of others is an addictive poison for them. The entire character of the Joker is created based on this logic.

They crave audiences, a sense of existence, and feedback from the entire society and human groups. In addition to positive feedback such as cheering and applause, stimulating feedback such as screaming and fear is better.

Robin King is actually fully capable of dissecting small animals without letting Thomas and Martha find out. He has ten thousand ways to destroy all evidence before they come back, but he won't do that.

Because for him, the physiological structure of small animals is not attractive enough. What really fascinates him is the fear and screaming of Thomas and Martha after they find the animal corpses. That will give Robin King a strange sense of satisfaction.

They naturally like to see their own kind show stimulating emotions such as fear. Some studies believe that this may be because they still retain some primitive hormones. The warnings of their own kind facing dangerous beasts, such as the smell of fear and screams, will stimulate their adrenaline and make them feel excited.

In primitive society, this is a necessary condition for the enemy, and when it is preserved, it is easy to become the source of psychological pleasure for these antisocial people.

If there is no strong enough external enemy in modern society to make people feel fear, so as to make them feel excited through group fear signals, then they will play this strong enemy themselves to get enough pleasure.

So King Robin always breaks the rules in front of Martha and Thomas again and again, because his parents' screams and fear are the source of his pleasure.

But in fact, if there is no such stimulation, then positive feedback is also possible, such as someone being amazed by him and becoming the focus of everyone's attention, which can also give him a short-term satisfaction.

However, in this illusion made of thick fog, King Robin knew that it was an illusion. He just wanted to compete with the mastermind in this way, similar to "I want to see what illusion you can create to defeat me."

Before this, King Robin thought he had no weaknesses, but soon he found that the mastermind knew him better than he thought.

Because in this illusion, everyone is like a greedy machine. They have made unimaginable high assumptions about what King Robin can achieve, so that no matter how good the results are, they feel it is not enough.

What really makes King Robin feel collapsed is that they have their own logic, instead of reading the lines directly.

Because King Robin once tried to argue with Thomas, he pointed out various examples to prove that what he has learned and achieved now is far beyond common sense, and the other party should express surprise. If he does not, it proves that he is a fake person.

But Thomas came up with his own set of logic. First of all, are you doing better than the people around you?

King Robin certainly thought so. Not only did he perform better than everyone else, he also made the best progress in various hobbies.

Thomas then asked, are you also better than others in terms of morality?

Although King Robin was reluctant to admit it, in order to win over the man behind the scenes, he did not do anything illegal in this environment. He was always a good man and even performed two heroic deeds and was summoned by the mayor.

Then Thomas asked, is your family background better than others?

This is an established fact. King Robin cannot lie with his eyes open. At this time, the Wayne Group is not the richest in the world, but only a local prominent family.

So Thomas asked this question. Since your family affairs are worse than others, you should do better than others, because the early bird flies first.

Okay, now King Robin knows which direction to work hard in, so he only spent a few months to make the Wayne Group bigger and stronger, becoming the world's number one. Now he is not only the son of the world's richest man, but also the world's richest man himself.

As a result, Thomas came up with a new set of logic, that is, the theory of effort. Do you think you have worked hard enough?

King Robin said, I have made my family the richest in the world in just a few months, isn't that hard enough?

Thomas asked again, do you think you work harder than others?

King Robin's answer was of course yes.

But Thomas then inferred that your starting point was higher than others, and others' family backgrounds were far inferior to yours, but they could also become the second or third in the world. Isn't it because they work harder than you?

Very good, this is a vicious circle again. When the family background is not good, Thomas said that it is right for the early bird to fly, and when the family background is good, Thomas said that it is normal to achieve success with a high starting point.

King Robin felt that he could no longer hold on to this point for debate, so he said that among his peers all over the world, he is the first, which is an indisputable fact.

Thomas said that compared with his peers, he was not as good as the best but better than the worst. He did not choose the best, but only the worst. Why can't he compare with people of all ages?

So King Robin conducted some scientific research and threw the results in front of Thomas, saying that now all mankind can't compare with him.

Then Thomas asked again, have you compared yourself with the great men in history? If you were put in that situation in history, could you do better than the great men? You are all blessed by the good environment.

In anger, Robin directly launched a war, dragged all mankind into the abyss of war, and then built a foundation from scratch, successfully unified the earth, and proved that he did better than everyone in history.

As a result, Thomas said, even if you are doing well now, how do you know that you won't do better in the future? If you are proud and complacent now, you will never have the opportunity to surpass yourself.

How should King Robin compare himself with his future self? He raised this question, and Thomas pulled out his trump card. You were more adorable when you were carefree as a child. You are too utilitarian now and have completely lost your original intention. Your mother and I are very disappointed.

King Robin has nothing to say.

It's not that he really can't do anything to Thomas and Martha. Of course, he can kill them casually, but he regards this as a competition and confrontation. He must defeat the other party head-on. In this case, getting angry and taking action is equivalent to admitting defeat.

Of course, he knows that this is a dead end, but he thinks that with his own strength, he can drill a hole out of the dead end, so why not?

He expects that the other party will be shocked and speechless by his great achievements, and can no longer find any faults, or at least start to enter the field of sophistry, nitpicking and picking faults, so that King Robin can legitimately mock the mastermind behind the scenes, and can't deny his achievements and find faults.

But now he found that Thomas and Martha had a comprehensive defense logic without blind spots. It was not a sophistry logic that was made up or forced on the spot by the mastermind to win the duel, but there were really such people in the world.

They had their own thinking logic that was independent of the world, and it was linked together, and they could turn to negation no matter what.

If you stand out in one group, they will say you are lucky, and if you stand out in all groups, they will say there must be other groups.

If you compare the results, they will say that your circle is not big enough, and if you compare the results year-on-year, they will say that you are not working hard enough.

If you really do the best among the living, they will compare you with the dead, and if you do the best in history, they will start to compare with the future.

If you do the best in all the above, and even refute them speechless with real evidence, they will say that you have forgotten your original intention, and that the ignorant, backward and incompetent you are more innocent and likable.

Then if you decide to ignore them and just keep moving forward, they will say that you don't listen to others' opinions and insist on going your own way, and when you make any small mistake, they will jump out and say "na na na na, I told you so long ago".

If you decide to listen to them, reflect on yourself and make improvements, let go of everything and return to your original intention, they will say that you are too irresponsible, you have the ability to take responsibility but evade it, you only care about your own ideas, and have no sense of social responsibility, and when you encounter any problems later, they will jump out and say "I wish I had done this and that".

In short, no matter how well you do in this process and what choices you make, these people will not be satisfied. It seems that the purpose of their existence is to disgust every arrogant genius and let them know that even if they conquer the entire universe, they cannot conquer the mouths of these people.

They just stand there quietly, like a smelly and hard stone in a cesspool. Even if someone transforms the cesspool into a paradise, they can still rely on the feces in their stomachs to spray feces.

And super geniuses like Robin King who think the world is under control will always realize such a desperate fact at a certain moment - in a corner of this world that praises his achievements, in a corner of this world that surrenders and trembles for his strength, this group of people will never change their minds.

No matter you destroy or create the world, no matter you change or surpass yourself, they always have their own set of theories and are very happy to deny you. Recognition and sincere praise of others never exist in their lives.

For the wise who don't care about the eyes of others, it doesn't matter whether this group of people exists or not, but is Robin King such a wise man? Of course he is not, the core of his personality is to crave attention.

But he doesn't want this kind of attention, which makes him feel like he is stained with shit, and the young Robin King didn't realize that when he first realized that it was shit, he should stay away instead of trying to throw a bomb into the pit head-on.

Robin King, who couldn't bear it any more, killed Thomas and Martha, just as he had done in his own universe.

Then, he ushered in the most disgusting moment of his life.

"See, Martha, I've said before that Bruce is such a person. No matter what he achieves, he will never treat his parents well. He is a hypocrite." Thomas said this while lying in a pool of blood.

"Yes, Thomas, you are right. We expected it a long time ago, didn't we? No matter how much he disguises himself, he can't hide it from his parents. We are the only ones in the world who know his true face. The restrictive measures we have taken are correct. Now he really does it. He is really a born bad seed."

"It's a pity that the world ignores our foresight, but it doesn't matter. They will soon pay the price for their contempt for our opinions. This evil bad seed will soon slaughter the whole world."

"Yes, but this is also the price they should pay for their stupidity. We said it a long time ago..."

Thomas and Martha died.

Robin King really vomited, physically vomited.
