The young man smiled bitterly: "Do you know how shocked I was when I first transformed into a beast?"

"I had suspected that this was the awakening of the bloodline, and I also suspected that I had taken some kind of transformation potion by mistake."

"When I discovered step by step that I could transform into more beasts, I suffered a lot."

"Fear, doubt, hesitation... I asked myself, why am I like this?"

"I don't want Zidi to worry, and I don't dare to tell the truth."

"How I wish this was a nightmare, but they really happened to me. I want to forget, but I can't, because the harsh environment always forces me to use this ability."

"Gradually, I discovered that they are part of my body, part of me. I hate and avoid them because I hate and despise myself."

"I sympathize with the big man because I see myself in him."

"I am most afraid when my companions turn into beasts and go crazy. I am especially afraid that one day in the future, I will lose my mind, my bestiality will come out, and I will kill the people around me."

The young man looked at Zong Ge and said frankly: "Some people just said that I lied to you. Yes, I lied to you. If possible, I would like to lie to you for the rest of my life. If possible, I would like to deceive myself.

.”

"Because I don't want to be a monster! I don't want to be a lycanthrope, a substitute, a tool! I don't want to be ostracized, I don't want to be disgusted, and I don't want to be discriminated against."

Everyone was moved.

The young man lowered his head, looked at his hands, and smiled bitterly: "Actually, there were many flaws along the way, but why didn't I realize it until now?"

"Because I want to lie to myself even more."

"I want to lie to myself that I am a noble knight, with exquisite armor, riding a tall white horse."

"I want to lie to myself that I am a nobleman. I have my own castle, a summer estate, and a beautiful and wealthy fiancée."

"I want to lie to myself that I have been favored and appreciated by the gods, and I want to prove that I have a firm belief."

"I failed."

"As you can see, I'm not."

"I am nothing!"

"I can only tell myself now: Hey, you idiot, don't lie to yourself, throw away those ridiculous, pitiful and unrealistic fantasies of yours, you are not! Recognize the reality, you are not even an ordinary person, you are a transformed beast

Transformed into a human being, a monster.”

At this point, the boy's eyes turned red obviously.

This is his true expression.

Everyone was silent.

Everyone looked at the boy quietly.

The alertness on their faces disappeared, and their vigilant expressions gradually disappeared.

"Haha, you are very self-aware, substitute." Zhen Jin's ridicule came from the fourth floor.

People immediately frowned, and many showed disgust.

But then, the young man's voice suddenly rose, and the topic changed: "Although I am nothing, can't I even think about it?"

"If I'm not, can't I do it?"

"If I'm not, can't I try?"

People's hearts are shaken.

"Huh, wishful thinking." Zhusha was extremely unhappy and reprimanded, "When a person is born, his identity and status are determined. You have to recognize the reality and keep yourself in order to get your own happiness. But you are driven by greed and desire.

, coveting things that do not belong to you will inevitably lead to a miserable and bleak end. This is your biggest original sin. Your holding such thoughts is the source of social unrest. How can you have the nerve to say such things? You may still be able to get redemption and salvation by pleading guilty now.

forgive!"

Everyone frowned deeper.

The substitute ignored Zhusha and continued: "If I have the chance, I want to be a knight, I want to be a noble, and I want to be a person favored by the gods. I want all of these, don't tell me, you don't want to!"

Everyone was shocked physically and mentally.

"If you don't want to, why are you going to a wilderness continent?! Why are you traveling long distances, crossing oceans, taking huge risks, and going to a place full of war risks?!"

"I am a monster, and I am ostracized, but what about you? Haven't you been ostracized, spurned, and disgusted? Haven't you been crushed by the powerful? Haven't you been deceived by life? Haven't you been deceived by your ideals?

, have your dreams ever tortured you?!"

The young man suddenly asked a series of questions at a very fast speed, causing the entire audience to fall silent.

The young man took a deep breath, softened his tone, and said with deep eyes, "We are actually the same kind of people."

"We are born ordinary." The young man looked at Bai Ya, whose face turned red and looked excited.

"We are ostracized and disgusted by others." The young man looked at the big man. The big man's eyelids trembled slightly.

"We were betrayed by our relatives." The young man looked at Cang Xu. The old scholar narrowed his eyes.

"We are always not treated fairly." The boy looked at the half-orc. The half-orc's breathing had become heavy.

"We have committed crimes, and we cannot forgive ourselves." The young man looked at Lan Zao. Ever since the young man woke up and stood up, Lan Zao had been half-kneeling on the ground, looking up at him at the moment.

"We are spurned, exiled, wanted, and laughed at. So what?"

"Shouldn't we think about it?"

"Shouldn't we do it?"

"The reality has made us so painful, and life is so bad that we can't bear it. Only by thinking about it can we become better."

"In fact, we've been trying."

"We fell into this island together, and we fought side by side. We hunted for food and water, and we were poisoned. We struggled in the desert, and were hunted by beasts. We fought off the attack of the Warcraft Legion in the camp, and we traveled long distances.

, collecting supplies along the way, we built new ships in the small valley, and we set sail to overcome difficult obstacles in the alchemy factory."

The young man paced in front of the crowd, recounting his energy during this period.

"What are we for?" The young man opened his arms and asked again.

"We want to survive."

"But it's not enough!"

"Far from enough."

"We still want to live a better life!"

"I've always thought this way, but I don't believe you don't!"

"Shut up, shut up. You devil, you are deceiving people, you are so rebellious. Your sins are too great. If you continue to do this, you will not be redeemed!" Zhusha roared, the young man's behavior

These words made him extremely angry.

The young man smiled slightly: "Devil? Yes, I am!"

He patted his chest and admitted boldly.

Then, he pointed at the crowd in front of him and said loudly: "But I am not the only one. Each of us is a devil and a beast!"

"We want to live, we want to live nourished, we want to have plenty of food and water, we want the status and glory of a human being, we want artifacts, and we want huge achievements. So, you too, my lord priest!"

In an instant, Chasha's pupils suddenly shrank.

The boy shouted loudly: "On this island, we are lost, we are trapped, we are hunted down, like dead dogs. We are so tired that we collapse, only for the hope brought by the new ship. On countless rainy nights, we

Let’s pray that it will clear up tomorrow.”

He then stamped his feet and pointed his fingers at the ground.

"This is the war dealer's mysterious island. There are not only man-made monsters here, but also devils and monsters."

"We may seem to have lost our way in life, but in fact, we always know in our hearts how we want to move forward."

"Everyone, listen to your inner voice!" The young man beat his chest excitedly, "What do you really want? Do you want to wait here to die? Do you want to surrender? Trust such a priest? Like a dog.

Wag your tail and beg him to give you a chance to live? Then, he swallows all the credit, just like the master eats all the meat and throws the bones to the dog, do you go and chew it? "

"Bones, big men don't eat bones, big men eat meat." The big man opened his eyes in a daze. He was woken up. He saw the boy and other people, but he didn't react for a while.

"I am not qualified to lead you. But I want you to listen carefully to your inner voice. What do you really want?"

"Should we bow our heads and stop, or should we rise up and resist?"

The crowd was dead silent.

But this dead silence is different from before.

If you listen carefully, you can hear people's beating hearts and heavy breathing.

"Dad, you're still alive!" the big man shouted. He stood up in ecstasy, but because he moved too fast, his head was dizzy and he couldn't stand still, so he half-knelt on the ground again.

The substitute smiled at him and then looked at everyone again.

He said no more.

He is waiting.
