Chapter 017: Those Who Follow Me Prosper
获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第017章 顺我者昌
The next second, Spider-Man dropped from the sky, landing in front of Wang Bo, raising his hands. "Hey, buddy, that was really cool just now. We should high-five to celebrate."
Wang Bo looked at Spider-Man as if he were an idiot.
Or rather, Peter Parker.
Seeing Wang Bo's lack of response, the other quickly said, "Hey, buddy, don't be shy. Come on, let's celebrate."
Wang Bo couldn't help but sigh. "You don't think it's over, do you?"
"What?"
Spider-Man suddenly turned his head and saw the woman hanging in the air, staring at him with murderous eyes. The webs binding her were freezing into ice at a visible rate.
With just a slight effort from the woman, the webs shattered to the ground.
"Oh, no." Spider-Man finally realized that things weren't over yet.
After breaking free, the woman descended from the sky, landing slowly like a light feather. "No one has ever dared to disrespect me. You will pay for this—with blood and death!"
Clearly, the attacks from Wang Bo and Spider-Man had enraged the witch.
One by one, icicles materialized out of thin air, targeting Wang Bo and Spider-Man.
"My God."
Spider-Man now understood that from the very beginning, she had been toying with him. If she had shown such terrifying power from the start, he would have been dead already.
"Run!"
This was no time for showing off. Spider-Man shouted at Wang Bo and turned to run.
But unfortunately, no matter how fast he ran, he couldn't outrun the falling icicles.
Wang Bo didn't have spider-sense, but even carrying the witch, he could dodge the icicle attacks.
So Wang Bo stepped forward and raised his hands. Both palms fired at once.
Dual Sonic Cannon!
Two terrifying sonic waves swept through the void, distorting the air for dozens of meters around. Like giant waves, the sonic blasts swept over the falling icicles, shattering them into dust in an instant!
Ice shards filled the sky, turning into snowflakes as they fell.
The sonic waves swept through the snowflakes with irresistible force, forming a terrifying vacuum that rolled up the snowflakes like a roaring dragon charging toward the White Witch.
Yes, from the moment this stunning woman appeared, Wang Bo finally recognized her identity.
She was the White Witch from the world of The Chronicles of Narnia.
A super villainess who once single-handedly froze all of Narnia, a terrifying witch who even Aslan, the creator of Narnia, had to treat with caution.
In the story, the White Witch cast a spell on Narnia, turning this once paradise into a land of eternal winter, lifeless, with no Christmas for a hundred years.
This shows that the witch's power was among the top villains—though not planet-destroying, she could easily pass for a deity in some worlds.
Even Wang Bo, as he was now, lacked the power to freeze an entire continent for a hundred years.
So Wang Bo didn't expect his attack to be effective.
His attack just now was merely self-defense.
Bang!
Sure enough, Wang Bo's sonic cannon was blocked as it approached the White Witch. The White Witch looked at Wang Bo calmly, not taking him seriously.
But as the White Witch prepared to attack again, Wang Bo shouted, "Stop, White Witch."
The White Witch halted the magic she was about to release and looked at Wang Bo in surprise. "You know me."
"Yes, I know you, the White Witch of Narnia," Wang Bo said. "I even know how you came to this world, White Witch."
The White Witch remained silent.
Wang Bo continued, "I can also send you back, White Witch. I can send you back to Narnia."
The White Witch shook her head slightly. "No need."
"What?" Wang Bo was stunned.
"In my view, this world is even more interesting than Narnia. So I want to stay in this world, conquer this world, and certainly won't return to Narnia."
The White Witch flatly refused Wang Bo.
Only then did Wang Bo recall the White Witch's origins. The White Witch was not human; she had the blood of both elves and giants, which gave her a long lifespan.
Moreover, the White Witch did not originate in the world of Narnia.
This story begins with the first book of The Chronicles of Narnia.
During an adventure game, the English boy Digory and his neighbor girl Polly accidentally entered Uncle Andrew's secret attic, discovered he was a wicked magician, and were forced by him to wear magic rings, arriving at the mysterious Wood between the Worlds.
The Wood between the Worlds was a relay station to all worlds, with different pools connecting to different worlds. Driven by curiosity, they came to a dying world—Charn—and accidentally awakened the evil witch Jadis. Worse still, the witch followed them through the Wood between the Worlds back to London.
The witch manipulated Uncle Andrew, preparing to conquer the world and causing chaos in London. In desperation, Digory used the magic rings to bring Polly, the witch, the magician, the cabby Frank, and his horse Strawberry to another world, Narnia.
With the song of the lion Aslan, Digory and the others witnessed the wondrous birth of the kingdom of Narnia.
To make amends for bringing the witch to Narnia, Aslan ordered Digory to go to the West to fetch a magical apple for planting. After enduring hardships, Digory finally completed the task and brought the apple back to London, curing his mother's illness.
And this evil witch was the White Witch.
She enjoyed the thrill of conquering worlds and was not confined to any single world.
So for the White Witch, whether it was this world or Narnia, it didn't really matter. She only wanted to conquer and enslave.
For those who are homesick, returning home is undoubtedly the best option.
But for the White Witch, whether she could return to Narnia was actually not important at all.
Moreover, she had already been in Narnia for countless years, and in a sense, she had grown tired of Narnia's unchanging scenery.
So when she came to a new world, the White Witch immediately had a new goal.
Conquer this world.
Therefore, she dismissed Wang Bo's proposal. Return to Narnia? No, she didn't need to return to Narnia, because she would conquer and make everyone in this world kneel at her feet.
Those who obey me prosper, those who oppose me perish!
On the other hand, after being rejected by the White Witch, Wang Bo realized he was in trouble. This White Witch was clearly like Vega from the previous world, a madman bent on conquering the world.
However, she was even more insane and terrifying than Vega.
Because Vega had never succeeded, but she had already enslaved a world for over a hundred years.
