Chapter 537: A Man Who Wants to Be a God

"You're all here?" Doctor Doom didn't look back, he just stood alone next to the stone statue.

The early morning wind blew away Doctor Doom's cloak, and he hugged his shoulders all the way in the direction of the sun, and in the cold sunlight, his back looked so lonely.....

"I've only seen this scene in my dreams," Doctor Doom said to everyone, and even more so to himself," When I was only seventeen years old, I climbed the snowy mountain in front of me alone, full of hatred, and I went to the outside world in search of strength, in order to change my fate, not only my own fate, but the fate of my mother and the whole of Latvia, and when I found out that there was a wider world out there, my heart was filled with joy, because I knew that here I would find a way to save my mother, and since then I have had similar dreams every night. ”

No one spoke, this was the moment that belonged to Dr. Doom alone, and the sad wish of many years was finally fulfilled, but it was realized in this situation in front of them, so people didn't know whether to be happy or sad, and no one knew what to say at this moment, so they all kept polite silence.

On the way here, Doctor Strange has told Li Kang everything about their encounter in hell, including Dr. Doom's fake betrayal, he didn't blame anyone, he just wanted to talk to someone, the mental damage of the trip to hell was more serious than imagined.

Doctor Doom's betrayal, but this is a clever ploy of his, he used it to lure Mephisto to take out Cynthia's soul, endure Mephisto's whipping of his spirit, successfully deceived the Lord of Hell, and used this as an opportunity to successfully join Doctor Strange, these things are Doctor Strange's personal experience, but most of the situation is just his guess.

In fact, Doctor Doom deliberately let Cynthia see his betrayal and let his beloved mother feel disappointed in him, which seems a bit unbelievable, but this is the truth, he used this way to make Cynthia's heart die, cut off her last bond with the mortal world, and let Cynthia get liberation from the soul, but this is done at the cost of Cynthia's love for Dr. Doom.

However, if he didn't do this, it would be impossible to fool Mephisto in hell, which is something that a big liar like Li Kang can't do, but Dr. Doom did.

Because Mephisto made Cynthia's body out of the dust of hell, if Cynthia hadn't died of her own heart and turned into a lifeless stone statue, she would never have been able to leave hell, which is the same as the story of Lyra in ancient Greece, what belongs to hell can never really leave, unless she has been trapped in her own hell.

I'm afraid it is difficult for ordinary people to imagine the pain in Dr. Doom's heart at that time, he didn't pretend to cry without tears at that time, his heart was really about to break at that time.

It was also this time that he successfully deceived Mephisto, so that he later joined forces with Doctor Strange, and then the two joined forces to fight Mephisto, until Li Kang accidentally blew up Mephisto's throne.

Nothing went according to plan, but it turned out to be good, and although Cynthia was reduced to a stone statue, she at least escaped Mephisto's clutches, and Doctor Doom defeated the Hell Lord and managed to free himself from his pact with Mephisto.

It seems to be a big victory that everyone is happy about, but the price of victory is a little too great.

Doctor Doom turned around suddenly, he looked at Doctor Strange, then at Li Kang, and after about a quarter of an hour, he finally asked, "Li Kang, are you the one who blew up the Mephisto Throne?"

Li Kang nodded, and he said, "I was captured by Mephisto as soon as I entered hell, but fortunately, I was able to escape from the cage, so I blew up his lair. ”

He'd said that to himself countless times, and he had already prepared for this conversation before he went to Hell, so even Doctor Doom couldn't detect anything with a lie detector.

"But, Mephisto said he didn't know you were also in Hell, what was going on?" asked Doctor Doom.

Li Kang said without changing his face, "That's Mephisto, the Demon King of Hell, he is dividing us, how can you believe his words? Do you believe him or believe me? Think about it, who was the one who blew up the Mephisto throne in the end? Although I left the team the whole time, my role is still irreplaceable." ”

"I'm sure of that, but I still don't believe anyone," Doctor Doom said coldly, turning back to look at Cynthia's statue affectionately, "The truth of the matter doesn't matter anymore, the only thing that matters now is that my mother has finally escaped from hell and she is finally free." ”

With that, Doctor Doom suddenly raised his hand and smashed the stone statue with a punch, and the debris of the rubble flew everywhere.

Everyone was stunned, and when everyone thought that Doctor Doom would treasure the statue forever, he chose to destroy it with his own hands.

A ray of holy light fell from the sky, and Cynthia's soul was taken to heaven without worry.

This is a decisive choice, I am afraid that only an affectionate and heartless person like Doctor Doom can do it, Cynthia's soul ascended to heaven, all the way to the divine light as snow, in this chaotic world, to be able to see such a sacred scene, people's hearts are also purified.

"Mom..... You're free, your son did.... Doctor Doom said with a trembling voice, freeing Cynthia's soul in the purest hour of the day.

"Young master, you have finally achieved this grievance, and I am really happy for you. The one-armed old butler said with tears in his eyes, "The king can't shed tears, but it's okay, let the villain cry for you, please vent it." ”

"Ahh Thank you. Doctor Doom straightened up, and said in a tired voice, "In a moment, give them the reward I have prepared for them, and send them away, I will stay here for a while." ”

"Then I'll move you a chair. The one-armed old butler said hurriedly.

"No need, I'll just stand, you've worked very hard, after sending them away, you can also rest," Doctor Doom suddenly cheered up, he turned around to face everyone, clenched his fists and said, "In the future, our journey will be even harder, and then I will need you to support the situation behind the scenes, we still have a world to conquer, a universe to explore, and so many powerful forces to grasp, Doctor Doom's prestige will spread throughout the universe sooner or later, and Destruction is a man destined to become a god." ”

Then Doctor Doom fell into a dead silence, standing like a stone statue next to the fragments of Cynthia's stone statue, motionless.

"Long live the young master!" The one-armed old butler escorted the two out with tears, although these two people could fly away anytime and anywhere, but for the sake of politeness, they still obediently walked to the main entrance, and when they were about to go out, the old butler gave each of them an envelope, Li Kang's envelope was a check with a large denomination, and in Doctor Strange's envelope, there was really only one letter.

This completely different arrangement has a deep meaning, giving Li Kangqian because the two are purely in an exchange of interests, which does not contain any other elements, and a letter to Doctor Strange shows that Doctor Doom cherishes this experience of fighting Mephisto with Doctor Strange, and he cherishes this friendship.

Doctor Strange was afraid that Li Kang would peek at the contents of the letter, so when he saw that there was only one letter inside, he put the envelope in his arms, "Haha.... I didn't expect Dr. Doom to be a sentimental person as well. ”

Li Kang was about to leave, but when he heard Doctor Strange's words, he couldn't help but turn around and say, " For everyone's sake, don't blame me for not reminding you, that's a man who wants to be a god, God doesn't have the emotions of ordinary people, even if Dr. Doom still has humanity now, he will lose this humanity sooner or later, because this is his nature, unless one day he can master the power of omniscience and omnipotence, let him know the boundaries of his ability, otherwise he will only go to the dark on this road, you will meet on the battlefield as enemies sooner or later, if you are smart, don't take him too seriously. ”

Doctor Strange nodded, he thought back to the stone statue of Doctor Doom in Cynthia, and suddenly felt a parchment in his mouth, and he especially wanted a drink now, "Kang, are you going back to New York? ”

Li Kang shook his head, he said, "Thank you for your kindness, I personally suggest that you return to Wang Wang's side, you two have a good drink, he is your real friend, as for me, after doing so many things, I am finally going to save my puppy's life now, let's see you again." ”

Without waiting for Doctor Strange to say anything more, Li Kang jumped into the air and flew away.
