Chapter 540

In the closed spiritual space, Mewtwo's sleeping self-consciousness curled up into a ball.

In fact, from birth, it vaguely felt its own unusualness.

At the very beginning, it, who had just been born with consciousness, couldn't understand human language and could only struggle to open its eyes, observing this strange world for the first time.

It was also at that time that the gazes of those researchers looking at it were already filled with various complex emotions.

Or pity, or fear, and even some... hidden deep desires?

The initial self didn't understand their thoughts, so it took the initiative to use its immature psychic power to try to talk to them.

Of course, except for their slightly terrified or vigilant gazes, it got nothing and never received any response.

And after gradually becoming familiar with human language, Mewtwo finally understood what kind of existence it was in their hearts.

It is a monster.

A monster that shouldn't have appeared in this world, but was created by humans using special means, and used for unknown purposes.

So from the beginning, Mewtwo almost instinctively had no good feelings for humans.

In this building that humans call a "laboratory," besides it, there were other groups of Pokémon living in culture dishes.

Humans call them "clones," meaning probably—

Their appearance is just a clumsy imitation of other Pokémon.

Then, like these Pokémon, born in a culture dish, and having never seen the outside world, is it the same existence?

Mewtwo doesn't know this, but judging from its own situation, except that it has already been born with self-consciousness and other Pokémon are still muddled, there seems to be no difference between them.

If this is its destiny, perhaps it should have accepted all this earlier...

Mewtwo couldn't help but think so.

It's a pity that just when it was most confused, that brilliant figure appeared in front of it, turning into the only light in its life, dispelling all the haze of the past.

Even now, Mewtwo doesn't know how Mew discovered it. Perhaps it was just a coincidence, or perhaps it was the bond of fate.

Mew's appearance gave it the first chance to talk to other creatures, and also made it gradually look forward to this world.

Through Mew's narration, even though Mewtwo had never left this laboratory, it could still imagine the vast, wild, and beautiful world full of surprises outside.

Mew is not an excellent narrator. It often uses very exaggerated expressions to tell some stories that seem not very true.

For example, it is actually the "final insurance" left by a certain great existence to the world, and it has shouldered the responsibility of commanding several giants to jointly protect the Tree of Life.

For its clumsy stories, even the newborn Mewtwo just smiled and didn't choose to believe its friend who likes to brag a bit.

If it has such an important responsibility related to world safety, why does it appear in front of it from time to time?

And its travel anecdotes all over the world, no matter how you think about it, it doesn't match its identity at all, right?

To this, Mewtwo didn't expose it.

After all, Mew could come to chat with it and tell some interesting stories that happened recently, and it was already very satisfied.

The boring time passed slowly like this. Through Mew's mouth, Mewtwo also gradually developed a longing for the outside world.

If only it could travel with Mew!

At this moment, its world finally bloomed with a glimmer of light.

However...

It was also at this time that the man named Giovanni appeared.

In fact, as early as when it was just born, Giovanni had appeared many times one after another.

For this man who seemed to have created itself, Mewtwo couldn't raise any good feelings at all.

Unlike Mew, who could bring laughter every time it appeared and make other clones in the culture dishes feel envious, Giovanni's appearance only brought fear.

This man named Giovanni didn't seem to have ever treated them as lives, just like his most common title for himself.

He treated all clones as his tools, and for clones with insufficient strength, he wouldn't waste a second.

Even now, Mewtwo doesn't know where those eliminated clones went, but the answer is actually quite easy to guess.

This attitude undoubtedly formed a sharp contrast with Mew.

At the same time, it also made Mewtwo's hatred for the "human" race reach an unprecedented height.

Even though Mew often mentioned a human who seemed to be its friend, and had also guaranteed that this human was definitely a good person and would definitely take it to meet him in the future.

But after experiencing the "accidents" of the clones, Mewtwo couldn't help but start to doubt—

In this world, are there really "good people"?

Especially now that it has been attacked by Giovanni's Beedrill and its consciousness has been closed...

Does it still have the ability to believe in humans?

Mewtwo couldn't help but show a bitter smile.

Its birth, perhaps, was a mistake from the beginning.

A taboo product born in this world to satisfy human selfishness, what choice does it have?

From the moment it was born, it was destined to become a tool in human hands, and its proud power would only be used by humans in the end, and it didn't know what kind of irreparable disaster it would cause.

No matter how unwilling it was, it couldn't violate Giovanni's will, and it couldn't even control its own body.

So...

It's better to give up thinking.

Anyway, no matter how much you struggle, you can't do anything.

It's just, it seems to have caused trouble for Mew again...

Just as Mewtwo's consciousness gradually fell into sleep, it suddenly felt a violent impact on its forehead, and the pain made it instantly regain consciousness.

"Mew!"

Mew's figure appeared suddenly, and after seeing the confused Mewtwo, it quickly showed a cheerful smile.

"Mew..."

Why did you appear here?

Mewtwo didn't react for a while, and subconsciously reached out and poked Mew's cheek.

"Mew~"

Even without using psychic power, Mewtwo seemed to be able to hear its meaning.

I'm here to save you!

After feeling Mew's sincere gaze, Mewtwo suddenly felt like crying for some reason.

"S-Sorry..."

Mewtwo suddenly lowered its head, and its voice became a bit choked.

Clearly it was itself who repeatedly caused trouble for Mew, but it never gave up on itself.

To have such a good friend, it's really great!

"Mew?"

After hearing Mewtwo's crying voice, Mew subconsciously tilted its head.

Could it be that it used too much force just now?

This child, wouldn't it be beaten stupid by one of its headbutts...

However, since it has re-established contact with Mewtwo, its mission should be over!

"Mew!"

Mew quickly showed a smile again, wiped Mewtwo's face messily with its tail, and then gently hooked its arm.

Its Zen Headbutt just now, besides letting its mental power connect with Mewtwo again, also broke the suppression effect of that restriction device on Mewtwo's spirit.

Theoretically, Mewtwo should be able to naturally regain control of its body at this time.

But this child seems to have a tendency to be autistic, still immersed in its own world, and didn't notice this at all...

But it doesn't matter!

Since it's already fine, there are more important things to do now.

Entrust Mewtwo, this sensitive little guy, to Xiang Qingyu!

Raising children, it is not professional enough, and it doesn't have the spare time.
