Chapter 1406 Rumlow’s determination!
While Wayne and the others were discussing all this intensively, Rumlow finally met Hellab.
He did not tell Tarik about his plans because he was worried that Tarik would stop him from doing so.
But Rumlow strangely thought that Hellab might support him.
Although this feeling had no basis, this was what he thought.
Mocott is no longer with Rumlow now. He went to the Temple of the Elders to rest.
Helping Rumlow withstand the impact of the Proof of Shame was not an easy task for Mocott. Because of Talik's control on the Holy Mountain, Rumlow's impact will be reduced a lot.
So now Mokot can take a break.
"You have changed tremendously from when we first met. I think this should be very worthy of celebration, right?"
Hailab said while sitting behind a stone table carved from a single piece of stone. There were a lot of documents on the table.
Some are specially treated parchment rolls, and those things need to be preserved for a longer period of time.
The other part is paper, these are things that do not need to be saved.
Hailab also gradually got used to his life as the leader of the elders. He seemed to be much more relaxed amidst this busy schedule.
Perhaps for a warrior, fighting is not the only thing.
At least now Hellab seems to have found a new goal, such as having a heart-to-heart talk with the young warriors?
Hailab is also constantly recalling the appearance of the elders he has seen, and then making himself more similar to those guys.
Elders are not high-ranking people, at least not among barbarians!
Elder means literally to the barbarians, an elder.
They are older so they have more experience, and they gradually become more peaceful as they age.
The greatness of these old men earned them the respect of young people. This is what the elders of the barbarians are like.
It is impossible for barbarian elders to do things like relying on their elders and betraying them, because such guys don't get the respect of other barbarians at all!
"I want to do something very dangerous, but I think it may change the situation of mankind facing the burning hell.
It’s just that the risk is a bit huge. I wonder, ancestor of Hailab, if you have any advice for me?”
Rumlow said bluntly.
He liked his life as a barbarian very much, and he became more relaxed without those intrigues.
"Honestly, I'm not the type who likes to give you advice, and I don't like telling you what to do.
It is only appropriate for you to make your own choices about things like life. Whether it is difficulty or happiness, only you can bear it."
Hailab said, picking up a wine jar from his feet and throwing it directly to Rumlow.
"I don't have much left of the wine that Bulcasso hid.
I always feel like it’s not too far away from the end.”
Hailab said with a smile.
After receiving help from Volusk and the first generation ancestors, Hylab also underwent some changes.
At least as an immortal monster, Hellabo has a completely new perspective on everything at the moment.
At least this situation isn't too bad.
"I still prefer the you who was always particularly irritable. Maybe it's because I'm used to that look of yours."
After taking the drink, Rumlow directly made a joke about Hellab.
"You are the only one among those young people who is more aware of your identity as a Nephalem, and I am satisfied with that.
Of course, this has to leave aside Jessica’s idiot who can’t tell the difference between herself and Orak.”
Hailab said very casually.
He hopes to see barbarians continue in this world, but this continuation is not "pure blood" in the conventional sense.
It is a recognition of one's own identity as a barbarian.
Of course, he also hoped that Burqasso, a living person among the barbarians, could leave some blood.
But there is no conflict between this and his satisfaction with Rumlow.
"Jessica has just never met anyone who 'loves' her as much as Orak before. It's not strange to want to be the continuation of Orak's life."
Rumlow curled his lips as he spoke.
He could understand Jessica's approach, but he couldn't completely agree with it.
In his opinion, although Orac chose Jessica as a redemption for Jessica, Orac would never want to see another version of himself among the barbarians.
This kind of thing is a bit too stupid, so stupid that it even gives Rumlow a headache.
"She desperately wanted to prove that she could become a good barbarian, but she never realized that she was already a barbarian after receiving the blood of Orak the Great Bear.
She is different from you, her body was reshaped by Orak using the blood of the Great Bear Tribe.
Even if she wants to deny her identity as a barbarian, it is impossible for her. In other words, Malthael will eventually understand that her position among the Nephalem is higher than yours."
Halab couldn't help but laugh in the middle of what he said.
He didn't say these words to Jessica, he just wanted to see when Jessica would really understand all this.
Barbarians don't need others to live for themselves!
This is something all Nephalem understood when they were in Sanctuary.
Barbarians rarely say "you are the continuation of my life" because barbarians don't like other people's lives to be filled with traces of themselves from the beginning.
If that kind of thing happened, it would be too pretentious and a bit funny.
"Rumlow, maybe you suddenly figured everything out at some point. Although not every barbarian is as talented as the three ancestors, your talent was considered even when the barbarians were at their peak.
Forefront."
Hailab rarely spoke words of praise, even with a bit of expectation.
Rumlow didn't know what he had to be worthy of Hellab's expectations.
He didn't bother to think about the answer to this question.
"I just hope that day doesn't come too late. It would be best if I could make Ancestor Talik proud of me."
Rumlow said very calmly, as if what he wanted to do was go for a walk by the river.
He can already face everything very calmly.
It would be better if the pain of evidence of shame could be less intense.
His head is aching now.
"Ancestor Mokot said that the pain I am suffering now has weakened a lot because Ancestor Talik is helping me."
Rumlow said suddenly.
Hailab just looked at Rumlow in front of him with a smile.
"I don't care about these things anymore, whether they are true or false, or anything else.
I'm doing what I think is right now."
Rumlow continued.
"That's enough. I'm not worried that your understanding of the world is different from normal people.
If you were that kind of complete lunatic, neither Mocott nor Tarik would choose you at that time.
Then what you think is right will at least not deviate too far from what is right in the eyes of the Nephalem."
Hailab said.
He really appreciates the current Rumlow.
Even though Rumlow's strength is not outstanding among these newly promoted Nephalem.
But barbarians don’t just look at people based on their strength!
