Chapter 186 World Master
In the end, Old Barton still did not make up his mind to kill Melissa.
Maybe letting her continue to live and continue to live with all the pain is the biggest punishment for her, right?
Old Barton said this to himself in his heart, but the real reason that prevented him from taking action is probably only known by Old Barton himself.
When Hawkeye was about to leave, Melissa took out a map from her arms, which she specially prepared for Old Barton. She knew that what Clint wanted was revenge. Although he let her go, This does not mean that he will let others go.
This map comes from Moonstone, which marks the community established by Moonstone in the north. A few months ago, Moonstone came to invite Melissa, hoping that this old teammate could help her build a community.
But Melissa refused. She had stopped caring about the world a long time ago, and she was just living in the world to atone for her previous actions.
Now that she personally handed the map to Barton, Melissa finally felt that she had done a 'good thing'.
She asked Hawkeye to take her with him. If Hawkeye didn't want to kill her, then her salvation would be meaningless. Melissa knew that Barton's journey would not be easy. Even if he solved the Moonstone, he wanted to kill Barton. It is not an easy task for Baron Zemo.
so.
This time.
Melissa decided not to remain silent anymore.
"Are you really going to just hand over Osborne City to the Blood Baron?"
Sitting on an armored off-road vehicle, Ashley finally couldn't help but take the initiative to ask Zhang Yi her questions.
"I thought you were going to be mute for the rest of your life."
Zhang Yi smiled. It had been two days since the departure, and Ashley had remained silent. If she didn't speak, Zhang Yi would think that this girl was frightened. After a pause, Zhang Ye answered.
"Don't doubt the people you employ, and don't doubt the people you doubt. Although John is not on the stage, he can still distinguish the results clearly from different standpoints. I believe he will handle everything well."
"You trust him so much? He also participated in the massacre of heroes back then." Ashley expressed her dissatisfaction tactfully.
"You actually want to ask me why I let him go like this, right?" Zhang Yi revealed what Ashley was thinking, and then he continued.
"Ashley, you have to know that no one in this world is 'clean', including your father, even if he was a hero before. I can't just start a massacre without explanation just because the world is in chaos. I need order. , I need stability, and what I need is manpower.”
Seeing that Ashley was still a little ignorant, Pietro on the side spoke.
"Let me tell you, little girl, the world I live in is not much better than yours. I think the biggest problem in the two worlds is not the rulers, but the people's society. Only when the people are stable and the society is harmonious, the whole world is full of hope. and vitality, this is the only way to solve these troubles, rather than simply killing people or replacing them with new rulers."
"Killing the rulers and starting the wrong revolution will only make things worse. Our fate on Krypton is a good example. Only by keeping everyone on the right path can civilization continue." Kara added.
Listening to the answers from the three 'experienced people', Ashley fell into silence thoughtfully.
She had never thought about these things before, or in other words, it was useless for her to think about these things at that time.
Ashley was born in the wasteland. She has watched the gangsters around her rob homes and houses since she was sensible. The character she has developed since she was a child is that the strong are respected. Only by becoming a strong person can she live a better life.
Under the influence of this general environment, Ashley entered a state of mind where she was sitting in a well and looking at the sky. Her mentality began to become abnormal, and she even gradually abandoned the most basic humanity and family affection. She began to become Extremely selfish and arrogant, because only in this way can she live a better life.
But after experiencing the battle with Osborn's League of Villains, Ashley was suddenly blindsided by a head-on blow.
She had never thought that the strength of Zhang Yi and others could be so terrifying. What she couldn't understand was that, even though Zhang Yi and others already had such powerful power, why did they still carefully avoid the eyes of others? .
This was the first time Ashley encountered this kind of thing that was completely contrary to her previous perceptions.
In the past, she would never have put her mind on such meaningless things. It was a complete waste of time for her. She might as well steal something if she had this free time.
But it was different now. Zhang Yi's terrifying power forced her to face this problem that troubled her. It was hard for her to imagine what Zhang Yi and others had done during this time. She didn't even understand what the purpose of these people was.
Seeing that Ashley was silent again, Zhang Yi kindly did not disturb her. Zhang Yi also knew that it was not easy to change Ashley's mind. There were some things that only she had seen and experienced. , can we gain new insights and overthrow our previous "naivety".
Maybe, this is what is called maturity, right?
After a pause, Zhang Yi tilted his head, glanced at the map, and asked. "Venom, are you sure we are taking the right route? Why does the navigation show that we have arrived at the World Master's territory?"
"In response to your words, of course our route is correct, sir. The Moonstone Sanctuary is built on the Canadian border. If you want to get there as quickly as possible, this is the fastest way."
Venom emerged from Ashley's shoulder, it stretched its body, came from the back seat of the car to Zhang Yi who was driving, and said while looking at the map.
"You should have said it earlier." Zhang Yi frowned but didn't say much.
"Sir, to be honest, I don't know much about this place. I really don't know when the World Master's territory expanded here." Venom was a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, I don't mean to blame you, I just feel a little troublesome." Zhang Yi sighed silently.
"World Master? Who is it?"
It was the first time for Carla and Pietro to hear this name. Seeing Zhang Yi's somewhat speechless expression, Carla couldn't help but ask about her curiosity. This also made Pietro prick up his ears, and even Ashley turned her eyes. He threw himself at Zhang Yi.
"Master of the World, a primitive man who has lived for 40,000 years, was transformed by alien technology. Advanced technology replaced his original body, greatly increasing his lifespan, and he continues to live until now."
Zhang Ye thought for a while and said.
"He calls himself the ruler of this world and calls himself the World Master. He has always been the old enemy of Alpha Team. During the War of the Old Days, the battle that destroyed Alpha Team and conquered Atlantis was from This person's hand"
