Dum really didn't want to manage Latvia anymore. In fact, from the very beginning, becoming the leader of this country wasn't his dream.
In his youth and youth, all he wanted was to explore the mysteries of this world.
Whether it was from the laboratory or traveling around the world.
Those hidden stories and unknown existences were what attracted his soul. As for Latvia? This country was just a restraint and a cage for him.
Why did he want to rule Latvia? For Dum, the reason for doing this was all because of his mother.
Dum's mother was originally from a prestigious family in this country, and her family had mastered some secret techniques. Some of the methods of rogue mages.
In terms of specific sects, it could be divided into the Greenwich Faction.
During the time when the country was in turmoil, Dum's mother couldn't bear to see her fellow countrymen in such suffering.
So she used the secret technique passed down in her family to communicate with Mephithos. At the cost of her soul, she exchanged for the help of the Lord of Hell.
Dum's mother hoped to restore order to the country with the help of the Demon God.
But the Demon God … everyone knew their moral principles. It was very difficult to make a deal with the Demon God.
Gods or powerhouses who weren't at the same level would basically be tricked.
So Dum's mother was tricked. Not only was the country not saved, but she also lost her own life.
She was treated as a witch by the ignorant people and burned to death. And her soul became part of Mephithos' collection.
This was also why Dum wanted to go to Hell and threatened to destroy it, forcing Mephithos to agree to release his mother's soul.
It could be said that Dum ruled Latvia and restored peace to this country, but it wasn't because Dum wanted to. He just wanted to fulfill his mother's last wish.
As for why he ruled Latvia tyrannically and tyrannically? This was revenge for the people of this country burning his mother to death.
He didn't just want to rule this country, he also wanted to complete his revenge.
So Dum lived in such a contradictory way. On the one hand, because of his mother, he made Latvia peaceful.
The lives of ordinary people became much better. Everyone had a job, food, and housing.
On the other hand, because of hatred, Dum implemented an unprecedented high-handed rule on this country.
Everyone had to live under the surveillance of his guards. Everyone was arranged to do what they wanted, without any freedom to speak of.
Human nature was also suppressed to the lowest level.
And this was Dum's two-faced nature. Was he having a good time? Not necessarily.
Did he care a lot about Latvia and his own rights? Not necessarily.
It wasn't until he met his mother's soul in hell that Dum proposed to resurrect her.
But his mother refused. She had once asked Mephisto to see Latveria in its current state.
She just sighed and said to Dum, "My dream is not your dream. You shouldn't carry a burden that you don't have to carry."
"There's no need to transfer unnecessary anger and hatred to tens of millions of people. This is not necessary. You need to be yourself, Dum. "
In the end, Dum's mother reincarnated with the help of Ksitigarbha.
After returning from Hell, many of Dum's thoughts had changed.
For example, Latveria used to be his private land, and no one was allowed to touch it.
But now, he felt a little indifferent. Was it important? It was not that important.
As mentioned before, Dum preferred to explore all kinds of mysteries. Whether it was science or magic.
He had once set foot on the Great Snow Mountain to search for the ruins of those spells, and he had also sailed to the depths of the ocean to search for the lost ruins.
He had gained a lot, and these things were the happiest for him.
As for ruling a powerful country with a population of ten million? Well, it was indeed a little interesting. But it was just a little interesting.
And now, Dum was tired of it. This kind of boredom made him feel dull.
So he was now watching the show and didn't mind the matter getting bigger. He was preparing to pave the way for a super high-speed railway system with Latveria as the center.
When Li Jie returned to New York, he told the rest of the Illuminati about what he had seen in Latveria and Dum's thoughts. (Dr. Banner stayed in Eastern Europe to do field planning for the railway.)
"So, Dum's words are still very credible?" Dr. Hank pushed his black-rimmed glasses and said.
"Logically speaking, yes," Li Jie replied after some thought.
Tony, however, focused on another point. "You agreed to introduce Dum to Ancient One?"
"You've really decided to let him walk the path of Mage? That won't do! Dum's brain worked too well. If he really walks this path, it might cause a big mess. "
"Dr. Destruction is already giving me a headache. If a Mage of Destruction comes, I think it'll be a disaster. "
Tony spoke very seriously, and the others listened very seriously and nodded in agreement with what Tony said.
Tony continued, "Dum is a person who does things according to his likes and dislikes. He won't consider the diffuse impact of one thing on the surroundings. That's something that's difficult to control. "
Li Jie said, "Don't worry, I haven't agreed to his condition for now. And becoming a Mage requires opportunity. "Li Jie thought, I can't become one even if I want to!
"Another thing, regarding Katie's country of mutants, we've reached an agreement with the ten countries in Africa. We've started secret negotiations to help them improve their farming and get rid of hunger. "Professor Charles talked about his student Katie.
Li Jie clapped his hands. "That's great. I think I should take some time to visit Katie. I really want to see the utopia established by a group of young mutants. "
Charles and Hank looked at each other and smiled at the same time. If everything went according to plan, then maybe a new era of mutants was about to arrive.
It was a cause that they had fought for their entire lives. If they could succeed while they were still alive, they could die without regrets.
Just as the simple meeting was about to end, Tony stopped Li Jie, who was about to leave. "Right, a farm in California recently produced a batch of good beef. It was only sold in Los Angeles before. "
"It seems that it's being sold in New York now. I've ordered a few for you. You can go back and try it."
”
Li Jie nodded and thanked Tony. Tony still knew what he liked. High-quality beef would be a great gift. Should he cook a feast tonight?
While thinking that, Li Jie opened the packaging of the beef. He wanted to see the texture of the beef.
But when Li Jie's hand touched the beef, the system that had been dormant suddenly came back to life.
