Chapter 139 Morpheus: I Have Never Seen Such A Shameless Person!
"Is it difficult to understand? But this is the essence of your power. Dane has begun his deception again.
"Destiny is actually to bring freedom to human beings, death is actually life, dreams bring reality, and the essence of destruction is actually creation.
Desire can also lead to hatred. Behind despair is hope, and behind madness is the desire for order. "
The Endless Family represents two sides of their respective concepts, and currently only "Destruction" has seen the clues.
During the period when he went on strike and ran away from home, he saw that the world had not stopped experiencing destruction because of his departure, and he knew that their assessment of him had been wrong.
"You have always had a wrong understanding of yourself, as if everything in the world cannot function without you, but this is actually wrong."
Morpheus was furious because these words subverted his worldview.
He has always been proud of his identity, and he is not shy about gods like God.
When Morpheus used "Dream of a Thousand Cats", he was so powerful that he could even reshape God. With such power, it would be difficult for ordinary people not to be distracted.
In fact, before being imprisoned by humans, Morpheus had an extremely bad character, indifferent, autistic, arrogant, self-righteous, and arbitrary.
He once fell in love with a woman from "Nine Five Three" (who was also black...), and in order to get her, he did not hesitate to violate the endless family's commandments not to fall in love with mortals.
However, the woman was very stubborn and unwilling to accept his love. In the end, the angry Morpheus was thrown into hell for nearly ten thousand years.
Who can do such a ridiculous thing!
He can talk to Dane calmly now, to put it bluntly, because most of his power is in the three artifacts.
And the three artifacts are on Dane.
Otherwise, just see if he can speak human language.
Morpheus's anger was not painful at all to Dane. He just looked at Morpheus and asked:
"Are we going to continue competing?"
Playing this game with him also has hidden meanings.
He just wants to tell the other party through this game that the Endless Family is not the master of all living things, and even in essence, it is the other way around.
This is just like the relationship between a listed company and its shareholders. The Endless Family is similar to a corporate legal person and has the right to legally use shareholders' money for development, but they do not actually own the money.
As long as the shareholders are still there and still trust the company, the company will not collapse, and the legal person can be changed at will.
And Dane proposed this game to remind Morpheus of this in a subtle way. It really drove him to panic, so he killed Morpheus here and then regarded this as a "dream".
But he didn't want to do it unless he had to.
Because once he becomes a member of the Endless Family, he must be responsible to all "shareholders" like a corporate legal person, and he must also abide by the company's rules and regulations.
From a free person to a restricted background pattern.
Who wants to do this job?
So his real idea is to let Morpheus continue to be this "dream" and bear the restrictions of the rule, but leave all his power to Dane to exercise.
Does it feel familiar? This is the source of Shazam’s power!
It's exactly the same as the necromancer Shazam used to rob and deceive the power of various gods.
"You are truly worthy of being part of the 'Shazam' family, even this shamelessness comes from the same line!"
Morpheus gritted his teeth.
In the DC universe, gods are born in dreams, so Morpheus can be said to have witnessed the rise and decline of the Greek pantheon. Naturally, he will not forget the necromancer Shazam who dared to steal the power of the gods.
And now, the face of necromancer Shazam highly overlaps with the man in front of him. The key is that Morpheus really has nothing to do with him, and he is in a terrible mood.
He said angrily: "You have no intention of competing fairly with me, you deceived me!"
When Dane heard this, he simply stopped pretending and showed off his cards directly!
He used the power of dreams to create a sofa chair, sat on it, and crossed his legs.
"Fair competition is based on the premise that both parties have equal strength. Now, Mengjun, do you think you have the qualifications to negotiate fairness with me?"
Since knowing the nature of the Endless Family, Dane has never cared about their powerful power. Your family has the most powerful hydrogen bomb in the world, but you dare not detonate it.
Then I'm afraid of an egg? Grab it!
But Morpheus, as a conceptual master who has lived for countless years, will not be easily forced to give in with just a few words.
Morpheus sneered and appeared on a sofa chair to sit down.
"You think that after you get the three artifacts, you can just use my power without paying any price? It's just a dream!"
He nodded meaningfully Dane:
"I can feel the power of 'death' in you. She gave it to you, right? Can you stop fulfilling the duties of Death God because of this?"
Dane said nothing and got to the point.
Although he can use this method to avoid the restrictions of the Endless Family, he will also become a god under the Sandman.
Gods have responsibilities. Before satisfying their own desires, they must fulfill all responsibilities, otherwise their power will be lost and eventually taken away by their superiors.
So for Morpheus, he can wait until Dane fails in his duty to recover this power. It's the same, but it will take a little longer.
But isn't that better? If someone helps him perform his duties, then he can take a good vacation. Do you think Morpheus has nothing to do?
He also has to work in order to weave dreams for humans, okay?
But does Dane have the time? No!
In addition to managing the company and Zhenglian's affairs, he also has to take care of several girlfriends. How can he have so much time to devote to Mengland's affairs?
So from this aspect, he is short of manpower.
This dream world is different from hell. Order in hell is optional. Dane just needs to prevent the demons inside from escaping.
Even if the demon inside beats people's brains into dog brains, it can still be regarded as doing justice to the people by eliminating harm for the people.
But dreams must fulfill their duties effectively. It is an important part of maintaining the real world and cannot be missed.
So Dane said calmly: "Maybe I need to find a few people to help me manage these complicated affairs."
Morpheus has not yet recovered his sinister intentions, and at some points, he is really incredibly slow.
Just listen to him say very honestly:
"You definitely need manpower, but there are not many people who are familiar with dream affairs, and I remember that you have only become a god not long ago, so what can you bring in..."
But the next second, he saw Dane staring directly at him. He was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but cursed:
"You bastard! You took away my power, and you actually want me to do things for you, and then you sit back and enjoy the results..."
"I have never seen such a shameless person!"
Dane pulled him down and calmed his breath:
"Don't be angry, we are discussing, right? You decide the conditions. I just want to be lazy occasionally. I believe you can understand, right?"
Seeing that Morpheus wanted to rant again, he pointed at him and said, "Don't deny it. I know it. You won't forget about Nada, right?"
Nada was the woman who rejected Sandman and was imprisoned in hell by him.
Morpheus definitely remembers her, how could he forget?
Nada was the first human being to pursue him crazily, and he returned her with the same irrational love, but she rejected his love.
This can be called a great humiliation in Morpheus's life! But how did this Shazam know?
"Don't worry about how I know. In short, you are usually so busy and you still have time to fall in love, so why can't I?"
Morpheus has never seen such a person before. He is thinking about how to fish before he officially takes up the job. Is it really okay to leave dreams to such a person?
In fact, Dane wouldn't do this if he could afford it, but he is duplicating himself.
He had to keep an eye on things on Earth, lest one day The Flash did a reboot because he missed his mother or something and he didn't even realize it.
Speaking of which, the time for Barry Allen to obtain the Speed Force is coming soon, and he can't leave the earth at this time.
The Speed Force felt more mysterious than any other power, and he had to study it.
So the two of them went through some back and forth and finally reached an agreement.
Dane will return the Dream Sand and Helmet to Morpheus, allowing him to regain some strength, which is enough for him.
As a Sandman, he can also regain his strength by devouring dreams, so he only needs these two artifacts to return to his peak.
When he heard him say "Dream Eater", Dane looked at the strange-looking helmet suspiciously.
Could this thing be made in the shape of a dream tapir?
So ugly!
In the end, the Dream Stone was retained by Dane as a trophy for his victory over the Sandman.
But Morpheus reminded him: "In the real world, it is just a gem containing infinite energy, and you can use it as a magic energy source.
"But only in the dream world can it exert its true power."
And Morpheus also told Dane another very important thing, don't try to use the dream stone to kill people in dreams, it is useless.
Even Morpheus, the master of the dream, cannot kill people wantonly, so how can his creation be an exception?
When Tianming got the Dream Stone, he didn't want to kill people. He wanted to enslave the hearts of all humans and make them regard him as "god".
With the exception of the Endless Family, all gods in the DC universe rely on the faith of mortals to exist.
According to Morpheus, it is the imagination of mortals that constructs the images of gods in dreams.
This is why almost all gods look familiar to humans.
Even if it is not a human-shaped god, it is still the stitched appearance of some animals known to humans. This is the power of faith.
Therefore, once Tianming's plan succeeds, he will immediately be able to make people on the entire earth imagine himself as a god. This is indeed a shortcut to becoming a god, and the success rate is very high.
