Chapter 326 Choose the empire or the lover?
"Gwen..."
Peter trembled as he uttered the name that had haunted him. He could not believe his eyes. Gwen was resurrected. He reached out his hand tremblingly and touched Gwen's cheek.
However, Gwen's cold questioning was like pouring ice water over his head, and his hands froze.
He once killed his beloved with his own hands for the great cause of building a new world, but he woke up crying many times in the middle of the night.
He once thought he was doing the right thing!
He once thought that he was very enlightened!
He once thought he could give everything for the new world!
But as time went by, he missed Gwen, whom he killed with his own hands, more and more.
Especially when the implementation of the new world encountered setbacks, and when no one understood what he did, he would doubt in his heart whether his decision on that day was correct.
He regretted it!
If he had the chance to choose again, he might not make the same choice again.
You will cherish something more when you get it back, just like Steve couldn't kill Bucky a second time that day.
But once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. What he has done cannot be changed. He can only keep going forward forcefully, courageously and courageously, even if he hits a wall, he will not turn back!
That was how it should have been… but now Gwen is resurrected.
“I…” Peter swallowed, looking flustered, “Yes… No… I mean, everything is for the new world.”
"I will build a perfect new world for you, one without lies and deception."
"Once the new world is back on track, I will find a way to revive you."
Gwen stood there, her eyes cold, staring at Peter so coldly that it made him feel uneasy.
"I'm telling the truth!" Peter explained hurriedly, "I asked scientists to develop a telepathic communication device. Everyone can detect the true intentions of others and will not be deceived by lies."
"In today's new world, there is no lies or deception between people, and everyone can be honest with themselves and others."
"All crimes will be brought to justice, and the crime rate is at an all-time low!"
"Society operates cleanly and efficiently, and there are no more inefficient interviews and elections..."
Peter couldn't help feeling proud when he talked about the changes in the new world. He took a step forward and tried to grab Gwen's hand, but Gwen stepped back and dodged. This action was like a blow to the head, which wiped out all his excitement.
They both fell silent, and the atmosphere grew colder.
After a moment, Peter said in a hoarse voice, as soft as a mosquito, "Yes, I killed you!"
Gwen took a deep breath and tilted her face upward to keep the tears from spilling out.
"Just for the so-called new world?"
Peter lowered his head, like a child who had made a mistake, "...Yes, because you are my weakness."
"SHIELD will use you!"
"HYDRA WILL USE YOU!"
"Those politicians will use you too!"
"All my enemies will use you!"
"Just like they used me back then!"
Peter took a deep breath, raised his head, looked into Gwen's eyes, and said sincerely:
"You will be deceived by them, or morally blackmailed, or manipulated by some other means, but you still think you are doing the right thing."
"Until... you make a big mistake like I did, and it's too late to regret!"
"I don't want to see this happen. I want to correct this wrong world!"
"I don't want you to endure this deception and pain, and I don't want more people to continue living in this filthy world."
"so……"
"So you killed them all?" Gwen interrupted Peter's long statement with a sneer, looking at Peter with contempt in her pure black eyes with a mocking expression.
“What a great idea!”
"Should I thank you again?"
"Are all those unfortunate people who died in your hands grateful for everything you did for them?"
Gwen's sarcasm made Peter's face turn red, and he explained anxiously: "You can't count it like that!"
"I am fighting for my life. Fighting for my life is not like treating someone to a meal. There must be sacrifices!"
“It’s all about the future!”
"In order to allow children to grow up in a new and beautiful world, no matter how much sacrifice is made, it is worth it!"
"Ha!" Gwen sneered, "Who decides who will be sacrificed?"
"Your Majesty, the Great Emperor—you?"
"Peter, you've changed!"
"You used to be kind-hearted, helpful, respectful to the elderly and loving the young, upright, aboveboard, and understanding of justice..."
"You are now dictatorial, authoritarian, greedy, tyrannical, bloodthirsty, and arrogant..."
Gwen's eyes were full of pain and disappointment. She looked at Peter with a sense of loss, and felt that the distance between the two of them suddenly became very far.
"The Peter I loved is dead, and the one who is alive now is just a walking corpse that looks like him."
Gwen was disheartened and turned to leave, but how could Peter let her go? Peter grabbed Gwen and said, "Gwen, I am still the same Peter. I have never changed!"
"You have so many misunderstandings about me!"
"Give me a chance and let me prove it to you!"
"I'll take you to various places in the new world and let you see what the world is like now and how much better it is than the previous world. Then you will naturally understand me!"
"Then you will find out that it's not me who did anything wrong, but the person who resurrected you is using you to hurt me!"
"I don't know how you were resurrected, but I am sure that the person who resurrected you must be my enemy!"
"I have a plan for your resurrection. Now that the new world is not fully on track, it is not the time for me to resurrect you!"
"The enemy wants to disrupt the development of the New World. We can't let them do that!"
"Please, Gwen, give me a chance!"
Peter started out speaking confidently, but gradually his voice became lowered, and a rare look of pleading appeared on his face.
"You are too arrogant, Peter." Gwen did not look back, but lowered her head to look at the ground and whispered, "I am not the only one who has been resurrected! Why do you think that all this is aimed at you?"
Peter was startled, and subconsciously wanted to call a meeting with his subordinates to discuss the upcoming wave of resurrection of the undead, but as soon as he loosened his hand, Gwen began to walk forward. Peter hurriedly reached out to hold her back, and looking at Gwen who insisted on leaving, he hesitated again.
On one side is the New World Empire facing an unknown crisis, and on the other side is the love of his life that haunts his dreams. What should he choose?
Choose the empire or the lover?
Gwen shook her hands a few times but failed to shake Peter off. She got annoyed and said angrily, "Why do you always hold on to me instead of worrying about your great empire?"
Peter stared at her blankly, feeling mixed emotions as he took in this familiar scene.
When they were in love before, Gwen would get angry like this when she was annoyed. At first, Peter foolishly took it seriously, but after a few times, Peter's emotional intelligence improved. He knew that in this situation, what Gwen needed was for him to comfort and coax her, not that she was really angry.
If it were in the past, he would just put aside all his work, coax Gwen, take her shopping, see a movie, say some sweet words, and everything would be settled naturally.
But what should he do now?
Leave the affairs of the empire behind and go coax Gwen?
Take her shopping or to the movies?
What about the empire?
Although we have not received any news from below, the resurrection of the dead is probably no small matter, especially those powerful enemies who died in the establishment of the new world. Once they are resurrected, they will definitely come for revenge.
Although he was not afraid of attacks from others now, once a battle broke out, the entire empire would probably collapse and be destroyed in the chaos of war. Once this happened, everything he had done before would be in vain.
But leaving Gwen behind to deal with Imperial affairs?
He had a clear premonition in his heart that if he did this, he would completely lose Gwen. Facing such a major event as the resurrection of the dead, it was definitely not a problem that could be solved in three to five days, and even ten days or half a month might not be enough. Even if he eliminated all the enemies in the future and had time again, he would never be able to redeem Gwen's feelings.
He knew very well that Gwen was asking him to make a choice. Choose her or the Empire?
Last time, Peter chose the Empire without hesitation and painfully killed Gwen with his own hands.
So what about this time?
If he dares to put the importance of the empire before Gwen again, Gwen will never forgive him!
Women, most of the time, don’t care about justice, they only care about men’s attitude.
In the process of this choice, they don't really care how bad the consequences will be, or how many people will die because of it. In other words, the higher the price, the more it represents how much men love them!
Just look at those melodramatic fictional dramas and you will know how many tyrants who love beauty more than power are highly sought after, and how many generals who are willing to shed blood for a beauty’s smile are highly respected by housewives?
If the male protagonist is not willing to risk his life for the female protagonist, then he is not qualified!
Gwen is a relatively rational woman, but no matter how rational a woman is, she is still a woman. When she faces an emotional crisis, the choices she makes are no different from those of ordinary women.
Especially, the man she fell in love with killed her with his own hands last time, which naturally made her feel resentful about this relationship and cast a shadow on the future development of their relationship.
Therefore, she must find out whether the man she once loved still loves her in his heart, whether he truly loves her, and how much he loves her?
Then, it was an inevitable judgment for her to put herself and the New World Empire, which Peter valued most, on the same scale and let Peter make a choice.
If Peter chose her, she would certainly be willing to follow her feelings and maintain this relationship.
But if Peter chooses the empire again, Gwen is not a indecisive person. She is willing to cut off her love with a sword!
Peter was well aware of this, which was why he was in a dilemma.
On the one hand, he paid countless prices for this, even cutting off all emotions and love. He killed his lover Gwen with his own hands, killed his idol Captain America with his own hands, completely cut off contact with another idol Iron Man, smashed the entire American continent into pieces, reduced the American population by 90%, and finally managed to build a new world.
On the other hand, he was the love of his life who was once killed by his own hands, but was resurrected by the enemy at the wrong time to shake his will. He is one of the fundamental sources of motivation for him to work hard and build a new world at all costs.
This multiple-choice question is really difficult!
Without the new world, he would not be able to create a beautiful world for Gwen where she would not be exploited or deceived again. Sooner or later, Gwen would be repeatedly exploited and fooled by her enemies like she was this time, eventually making a big mistake, suffering and suffering for the rest of her life.
But if Gwen eventually left him, what was the point of building this brave new world?
Even now that he has lost his beloved one, does he still have the motivation to continue building a beautiful new world?
In the end, will this new world continue to develop in a better direction?
Wouldn't it be possible that we would deviate from the original track without realizing it and eventually end up on the road to destruction?
Seeing that Peter did not make a decision on the spot and instead hesitated, Gwen snorted unhappily, shook her hands vigorously, and was about to leave.
Of course Peter disagreed, but Gwen raised her hand and cut off the arm that Peter was holding, then turned and left in Peter's shocked eyes.
Although her arm was chopped off, no blood flowed from the broken arm of Gwen. Instead, the broken arm in Peter's hand decayed in an instant and turned into a wisp of black smoke that dissipated into the air, while Gwen's broken arm grew back at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Peter also had this ability to revive broken limbs. But Peter saw very clearly that Gwen's regeneration of broken limbs was definitely not relying on the ability to rotate the magnetic field, but more like her body was supported by some strange energy. As long as this energy did not disappear, she would be immortal.
Gwen's state is a bit like the prisoner called Super Giant brought back by Zhan Liu, but there are also big differences. Super Giant's energy seems to be inherent, while Gwen's energy should come from outside the body, and the specific source cannot be determined.
Because Gwen's appearance had such a huge psychological impact on him, Peter subconsciously ignored many of the things that were wrong with Gwen. But now that he had calmed down and thought about it carefully, he realized that there was something wrong with Gwen's resurrection.
Gwen's body was pale and she didn't look like a living person at all. Her eyes were pitch black without even any whites, which was even more abnormal.
Rather than being resurrected, it would be more accurate to say that Gwen is now just a special corpse that can move, communicate, and have memories.
Peter hesitated for a moment, and finally broke the habit of not reading the minds of his relatives and friends, and used his mind-reading ability on Gwen for the first time.
He must figure out what is going on with Gwen's current condition and who the enemy behind her is!
