Qiu Yu still lowered his head quietly and listened to Qiu Yan's words without making the slightest reaction.
Qian Xiao looked at the light fairway, "It's still wrong. According to what you said, since they don't plan to fight us, and there is no language barrier in this game, why don't they just come out and talk to us? And the biggest problem is that if creatures want to survive, If you go on, you have to be selfish. I can't imagine how such a race that can think about its opponents when the entire civilization is facing life and death can overwhelm other creatures on their planet and establish a civilization."
"The wonder of the universe far exceeds your human image. Not all places where life can be born have a nearly perfect environment like the earth."
Following the words of the light ball, a comet with a long tail was projected in the sky.
"A certain inconspicuous ordinary comet currently has a diameter of 20 kilometers and an orbital period of 430 years. The time it can receive the light of the star accounts for less than one percent of each cycle, and the rest of the time can only be at near absolute zero. In the cold universe.”
Qian Xiao suddenly shouted, "Are you saying that our opponent just now was the civilization that was born on this comet? This is too outrageous."
"This is not outrageous at all." The light ball floated to the comet in the projection. "The biggest shortcoming of every new civilization that participates in the game is that it only uses its own common sense to look at the universe, but the universe cannot accommodate you. In the sea The complex environment cannot be inferred from a small pond. Therefore, if you want to play this game well, you should not confine yourself to human thinking and understanding. You can only treat yourself as if you have just arrived from a small pond to the sea. The exploration, adaptation and learning of microorganisms are more important than trying to forcibly understand them with human thinking. However... the civilization born on this huge comet does have some laws that transcend the universe, so they can also be called wandering in the laws. Creatures on the edge.”
"You mean a huge comet? A diameter of twenty kilometers is considered huge? Are you using your own body size as a reference?"
The ball of light responded seriously to Qian Xiao's important question, "I even say that its current diameter is twenty kilometers, but it was indeed quite huge at one time."
A dazzling star appeared in the projected picture. Under the light of the star, the tail of the comet spread out a huge tail.
"Every time a comet approaches a star, it will lose a large amount of material due to the heat of the star. During countless approaches to the star, the comet becomes smaller little by little. So in its long trajectory, The brightness of the stars is both hope and disaster.”
Kyuubi murmured in a low voice behind everyone, "This is the law, if you gain something, you must lose something."
The picture in the projection was pulled to the surface of the comet, which was desolate and empty.
"I have studied the human definition of life. Although it is relatively narrow and does not apply to most living things in the universe. But there is one thing in this definition that is correct, and that is energy metabolism. Regardless of carbon-based life, silicon Basic life, pure energy life, and thinking life are all inseparable from energy. In addition, in addition to energy, the formation of life also requires time and a suitable environment. All this on this comet that is always in the cold universe, It’s impossible to have either.”
"But it happened that on this comet, which had no possibility of birthing life, some life forms were born that challenged the laws of the universe. Even with our current knowledge system, it is difficult to understand their emergence, and we can only look at the process through the results."
"Their initial birth moment is when the comet approaches the star, and the liquid on the comet exists for a short period of time. This time is very short, only a few minutes every 430 years, but these few minutes do have the material basis and the energy from the star. .”
"However, this time is too short to allow life to grow, and extreme cold and heat can easily destroy the body of an object's life. So life on this planet chose to continue rather than exist. Every experience In these few minutes, there is a slight possibility that life will be born on this comet. These lives, from individuals to entire races, are born at the same moment, and they all die together at the same moment just a few minutes later. Therefore, In the cycle of reincarnation every 430 years, the lives born on this comet have no life information connection with the lives in the previous cycle."
"But if it has existed, it will always leave traces, even if it dies, even if it is burned by high temperature, even if it is destroyed by low temperature. But the existence of life is always different from a single substance in the universe. After the death of all life in the previous reincarnation, There will always be some wealth left for the future life, maybe a base molecule, maybe a little protein, maybe a piece of sugar that is not enough for ants to fill their teeth... After countless generations of life have accumulated by their own existence, these lifetimes only have The tiny life of a few minutes became more and more complex. After mastering the method of transmitting knowledge to the life of the next generation, it barely became a civilization until the generation that played the game with you... So you now understand why they Will I still think about letting you win in a life-and-death war?"
"Because they know how to cherish and measure. They think that if they fail, there will still be opportunities. In their eyes, those of us whose lives are unimaginable. If we perish because we lose the game, it will be difficult for them to survive. , the last thing you want to see." Qiu Yan's voice was very soft, as if he was telling a sad story, "The reason why this kind of civilization that thinks about others at any cost can survive is because they survive. The place is so barren that only they exist.”
“The reason why they want to pass on knowledge to us is because they have everything they have through the accumulation of generations of life. Among their values, sharing and dedication are the most important things in a short life, and they have been deeply engraved in their values. Instinct in their lives. However, it took humans thousands of years to accumulate a wealth of knowledge, and it took them 430 years to have a little time to pry into the mysteries of the universe... Every bit of their knowledge is It’s just too heavy.”
"And all the power they have to trigger laws is because their birth is to challenge the laws of the universe in an impossible way. They are the lives closest to the edge of the laws."
"So, it's not that they don't know how to kill, it's that they are unwilling to kill. But the real contrast is that in their short lives, they have no time to create words and languages. All knowledge is passed down through the ability of laws. , this is the reason why Qiuyu can understand them and their knowledge, and also the reason why they do not communicate with us directly - although there is no language barrier in this game, for a civilization without language or even the ability to recognize ordinary matter , and it is impossible to create a language out of thin air. In the same way, they are not deliberately twisting our power to attack us, but they do not have any resources and can only use a small part of their legal abilities, and more legal abilities are just Existing in their theories, or even beyond their imagination, they simply don’t know what results those legal abilities will bring.”
"Then Kyuubi and the others are at a critical moment..."
The ball of light sighed, "That's because their abilities exceed the load of their bodies. It's the same particle fog, and it's the first time to use it. The power of the brain is very different from the Kyuubi's."
"How could this happen... Could it be that every point of the master's analysis was wrong?" Qian Xiao shook his head in disbelief, "Then what was the hallucination that occurred before arriving at the hall?"
Qiu Yan, "After they realized the diversity and complexity of law abilities, they allowed us to understand our own law abilities intuitively. Qiu Yu walked out directly because his understanding of his abilities has exceeded to the extent that the other party can help.”
"As the supervisor said, you will completely misjudge this game because you never thought that there would be such strange value creatures in the universe. After all, no matter how smart a person is, it is impossible to understand knowledge that he has absolutely no knowledge." Nine Wei patted Qiu Yu, who was lowering his head and trembling slightly, "So don't pay too much attention."
Seeing Jiuwei comforting Qiu Yu first, Qian Xiao reacted and jumped to Qiu Yu's side in a few steps, "Master, your analysis is all based on safety, so judging from the results, the other party does not want to harm us. , even if you are all wrong, it doesn’t matter. But if the other party is an opponent with normal thinking, your analysis is all right. This... overall, you are still the best."
Qian Xiao knew very well that people like Qiu Yu, who had absolute confidence in themselves, might never recover once they suffered setbacks. What's more, the setback Qiu Yu encountered this time was a complete defeat.
"No, there are still things that cannot be explained by the kindness of the other party." Qiu Yu shouted willfully like a child unwilling to fail, "Before the victory, I felt that their lives were disappearing rapidly, so they would not In order for us to win, they all committed suicide, right?"
Qiuyu's question made the ball of light silent for a long time. Just when everyone thought it would not answer, it slowly said, "Joining this game is a mixed blessing for earth civilization. As a result, for this civilization born on a comet, this is a dream journey. They should have ended the game after letting you understand the ability of the law and win the game, but at the last moment, Within the scope of their legal ability control, a powerful force that they could not resist was forcibly intervened..."
"Is that the ray that turned into a human?" Qian smiled and narrowed his eyes, "By the way, one of the two light balls fighting him is you, and the other is the supervisor of the comet civilization, right? The two of you will unite. What is that thing that is not an opponent? He also uses law abilities?"
