Superpowers of Sky City

Chapter 188 The Light Through the Shadows
The torrential rain has been falling, and there is no sign of it stopping, and the alley soon accumulated water.Crackling, the rainwater hit the puddles, and hit the children's clothes and hair.The children in the depths of the alley remained motionless, allowing themselves to sit alone in the water.

The new visitor walked alone in the rain, without an umbrella, and the rain did not reach his side.They couldn't hear the sound of stepping into the puddle, because whether it was the rain from the sky or the stagnant water on the ground, all the liquids automatically slid away from his side, as if they were actively making way for the visitor.

Shigure Zero knew who this new guest was.She met this person once on the boat... He was Mo Yuankai from a few years ago, that kind-hearted intelligence dealer.

"Morning, Gongsun Ce." The shadow man walked up to the child and waved cheerfully, "Long time no see."

"Mo Yuankai..." The child looked up at him, "Long time no see."

The shadow man knelt down on the spot and took out a pack of biscuits from his pocket.Before he could ask, the child smiled wryly and said, "Thank you so much. Are you still bringing food with you?"

"I'm so hungry!" the black shadow man sighed and opened the package, and stuffed two biscuits into his mouth, "Who knew that the food supply on the ship was good? Wow, the first thing I did when I arrived in the city was to grab Food, I really can’t even think of it.”

"Ah."

The shadow man finished eating the biscuits, put away the packaging bag, and said, "Gongsun Ce, don't you think our city is really rotten?"

He stood up, wrestled his fingers and said, "Every day there are organizational fires, every now and then biochemical accidents, either everyone grabs the territory or goes berserk with superpowers. I don't have to wait until 2077. I can now declare that I live in the world. Worst city ever."

"It sucks." The child echoed in a low voice, "Do you want to form an organization too? Or run away?"

"What's the use of that?" The shadow man asked back, "I have been observing for the past three years. At first I thought it was because the government was not effective, but later I found that the people in the government are very dedicated, and everyone is working hard to maintain Law and order, the policy has gradually become looser; later I thought it was a small number of people who committed crimes, but I found that it was not a small number of people, and everyone participated in this process more or less. Without Aurus and John, there would be others Someone come out and bring this head."

"I thought about it for a long time, and finally understood. It's everyone's heart that has a problem."

"……Heart?"

"Everyone is so desperate. Anxious, numb, sad, angry, self-defeating. Everyone is like this, how can this city be better? What an assertive person you used to be, spraying Aurus to use despicable means , and now you are staying here and going to jail by yourself. You are the epitome of the capital of the sky, Gongsun Ce."

The shadow man said worriedly, obviously he was also a prisoner in this prison, but he didn't show any sense of oppression in the prison.

"After I think about it, I know what everyone really needs. What everyone needs is the motivation to live on, a symbol that tells them there is still hope in life, a pioneer who breaks everything—"

The shadow man clenched his fist firmly: "What the capital of the sky really needs is a hero who brings hope!"

"...haha." The young Gongsun Ce laughed, "Hero activities... go to fight them on the street? To stop the experiment accident of the white coats?"

"Yes, get the people out of trouble and tell them someone will stop this from happening!"

The child covered his head and smiled coldly. He couldn't help but say mean and hurtful words: "Are you dreaming, Mo Yuankai? Do you think such a ridiculous move has any meaning other than self-satisfaction? Do you think Reality is a hero comic? You alone can't stop the city from falling, and you can't change anything!"

The shadow man was not angry at all.

"I said I was prepared. I got in touch with the bosses in Cangshou District, and everyone hit it off, so this hero event has a solid guarantee..."

"What's the use of that?!" The young Gongsun Ce roared, "The capital of the sky is a prison for us, and we are aliens rejected by the world! No one can change all this! We are superpowers... we Can't do anything but hurt each other. Unless you can make the super power disappear, can you do it?! You can't, no one has this power!"

The shadow man wiped his nose.

"Your thinking is so strange. Why do you want to lose your super power? We can use this power to do something good and change people's hearts."

The child laughed angrily: "You think you can change millions of people in this city? Why?!"

The shadow man patted his chest: "With my will and courage!"

These words were sonorous and forceful, with high momentum, which not only stunned the children, but also made Shi Yu Ling, who was watching, complain that his brain was sick.Is this guy daydreaming?Where did he get the confidence to say such ridiculous things?

But Gongsun Ce smiled nostalgicly.He saw the shadow man raised his thumb: "Look! I have succeeded. You are so excited to argue with me, it means that you think there is something to be done, and you think I have hope!"

The child stood up with a slap in anger: "You are making too much sense, you are just wasting your energy!"

The black shadow man said slowly: "Then why don't you call it a white worker? Staying in this place, isolated from the world, doing nothing, isn't it good to be proud?"

The child was speechless.

"I know what you want to say. I will fail, of course I will suffer setbacks. But even so, I want to do my best. Even if I can't do anything in the end and I am pointed at and ridiculed by everyone, I don't regret it. Because I tried my best and tried to make a difference in my own way!"

The shadow man raised a finger: "Look, I'm here to change you now! There must be a reason why you are so depressed, just look at my reasoning."

He thought about it for a while, and said uncertainly: "It's because I ate badly yesterday...the surroundings are too dirty...the environment is too humid..." Suddenly he slammed his right hand. "Yes, I see. It must be because of the cloudy weather. Everyone is unhappy on a rainy day!"

The onlooker Gongsun Ce laughed out loud, and the children in the back of the alley yelled frantically, "What the hell are you talking about?!"

"You can only be in a good mood on a sunny day. Just wait for me." The shadow man stretched out his hand, pointing to the cloudy sky, "Sunshine!"

In an instant, a fiery beam of light pierced through the sky and the earth.

The light pierced through the thick clouds like a sharp sword, and moved with his palm, cutting through the dark clouds covering the capital of the sky from the center.The unparalleled power changed the sky, and the gray clouds rolled back to both sides, just like the feat of parting the sea in ancient mythology!
The black shadow man withdrew the light beam in satisfaction, revealing the clear blue sky among the split dark clouds.There is no more rain, and there is no more haze. The bright sunlight casts down from a ray of clear sky, evaporating the water droplets on the walls and drying the water marks on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, there was no more shadow in the alley, and the child stared blankly at the sky.He subconsciously narrowed his eyes, blocked the front with his hands, resisted, and felt the warm light.

The young man in front smiled gently: "Are you in a better mood?"

The sunlight dispelled the haze in the alley and melted the shadow on him.

He is tall and handsome, wearing white trousers, a black jacket, and a bright yellow waistcoat.The waist-length pale golden hair has a strange translucent texture, shining brightly under the sunlight, like glass.The appearance that is different from ordinary people adds an inhuman temperament to him, but no one will feel that he is born with it.Because the smile on his face is so kind, showing goodwill without falsehood.

The child withdrew his hand and couldn't help laughing.

"...Yeah. I feel better."

Mo Yuankai smiled and stretched out his hand.

"Let's go! Let's change this city together!"

Gongsun Ce let go of his hand and gestured to the shocked female huntress.He merged with the children in the alley, and held the hand of the long-haired youth.

"I lost to you, brother. I'll go with you."

Mo Yuankai opened his mouth in surprise: "Wow... such a big change? His hair has turned gray."

The gray-haired young man smiled and said, "You handsome guy with long hair still criticizes me? It's the same as what you said, people have to change."

"Look, I'll just say I'm right." Mo Yuankai patted the clothes on his body, "By the way, why have I always been a shadow man before? It looks like it's been coded."

Gongsun Ce shrugged his shoulders: "Brother, you are so radiant that I can't look directly at you. Look at you, you are strong and handsome, and your strong words exude confidence. If I am a girl, I will really fall in love with you."

"Isn't it?"

"As for it." The gray-haired young man let go of his hand and said softly, "I've always been...very jealous of you."

In this world, there is such a guy who has nothing to do with others.They go their own way, full of self-confidence, and exude surging positive energy in every move.They will turn on the lights in the house when you are at your lowest point and drag you out to drink; they will also arrive in time when you are seriously injured and tell you not to worry about everything.When you are decadent and lost, he will pull you up, but you can hardly see their vulnerable side.

They are always strong, always firm, and always at the forefront of the road.You look at their backs with deep admiration, but you also feel a hint of malicious jealousy in your envy.That feeling lingers, and you don't do anything about it...just loathe yourself even more.

Mo Yuankai thought seriously for a while, and said, "It's a good thing."

"Hey! Is it good to be jealous of you?"

He patted his younger brother on the shoulder vigorously.

"You are jealous of me, which means you envy me, right? Doesn't that mean that you are dedicated to goodness and want to improve yourself!"

"Wow, are you being reasonable?"

"You just learned too much from the Dawn Knight. How can there be so many things that need to be reasonable and logical? Your friend has fallen into the abyss, what reason do you need to pull him?"

He laughed and turned away.

"Come on, Ce! I'm retiring, and now I'm relying on you."

The gray-haired young man leaned against the wall and said helplessly, "I feel so powerless, I can't be the second you after all."

"Just be yourself! Besides, you don't have so many friends." He gestured to Shigure Rei who was watching, "Please help him."

"Cut." Shi Yuling turned his head away, "I don't care what he does."

Mo Yuankai waved his hand and walked out of the alley.Everything in Node's dream faded away, and in the completely white space, there were only two people standing.

"My worldview was shaken. It was hard for me to connect this handsome guy with the first class and that fat guy."

"Don't look at the skin, look at the heart."

"So you just changed like this..." Shi Yuling sighed, "You took another path but blamed yourself more because of jealousy, you bastard!"

"It's really difficult to deal with." Gongsun Ce pushed down his glasses, "From this day on, I became weaker."

Get out of the dark comfort zone and go to the sunny world with your friends.People with superpowers have gone on different paths since then... However, the ability to become stronger due to the predicament has also changed unknowingly.

"I am no longer the child who cried alone, and my heart can no longer support the power to repel everything." Gongsun Ce smiled freely, "But I don't regret it. Because I believe that I made the right decision." s Choice."

Shigure Zero sneered: "From an autistic child to a second-year-old child, it seems that I have made a great choice."

"Compared to my past self, I have grown up, right? After all, strength cannot represent everything."

"A guy with a mouthful of pretty words..."

Shi Yu was still talking like this, but her eyes were a little more relaxed.Gongsun Ce felt relieved, knowing that he didn't need to say anything more.

"Thank you for accompanying me to review the past, big sister."

The dark-haired woman poked his forehead with her hand.

"If you have self-knowledge, fight hard for me, kid!"

Then, everything in the dream disappeared.

Gongsun Ce opened his eyes, and his friend in a suit was standing at the end of his bed.

Shi Yulian raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Gongsun, I just wanted to remind you to prepare for action."

"What a coincidence?" He flew out of the narrow bed and put on his glasses. "I can't wait to save the world."

Unbelievably, peace was restored in my heart.The worries before falling asleep are still there, but the daze and panic are gone.He knew what he was going to do.He knows what he is fighting for.

In the past, he wanted to change a city.Now, it's up to him to avenge his partner and friend and change a country for the lives of all.

For this reason, he swung his sword towards the evil spirits and gods.
