Su Mingan raised his hand and drove away Li Ming's hand.
As he moved, bone powder fell, and they fell on his body like flying snow.
——These are all Asa Akto who have passed away.
During their lifetime, they may have been as dazzling as the sun, experienced great prosperity and glorious lives, led the trend of the world, looked down on all living beings from the top of the city-state, or led the soldiers who resisted in the fire - but these are not comparable to what they are now. Already dead.
Whether it is physical death or spiritual death, human beings will inevitably come to an end. As early as when he was in Praia, Su Mingan understood that "eternal life" was an impossible thing.
No matter how dazzling and just a leader is, they will all face death. Only by passing on from generation to generation can the civilization of the race be continued for a long time.
Whether Asa Akto's death was due to Li Ming's instigation or his own will, Su Mingan no longer knew. All he could see now was the doctor's ashes.
He turned around and saw the mountains of bones that stacked high and high. This scene was so shocking that it was unspeakable. Countless human bones were buried here, and they all came from only one person.
"Asa Acto..." He whispered the name again.
He began to regret that he could only possess one person at a time who could no longer talk to him. Except for the situation where Su Lin changed generations, it was difficult for him to communicate with the original owner of his body.
If Asa were still alive, he might be able to interrogate the doctor in depth about his philosophy.
He swept away the broken bones on his body. These cold bones looked quite scary.
"Although these skeletons are all 'father', you are the same." Dawn said.
Its eyes clearly reflected Su Ming'an in the wheelchair.
"In the current observation, you are very qualified. I hope that in my eyes...in my long years, you will become a [Dawn] type personality that will not deteriorate so that we can jointly build this ideal country of measurement." it says.
It drove the wheelchair and slowly pulled him out of the white mountain of bones, away from the poor howling man.
"What I said before seems to be correct." Su Mingan looked at the man and said.
"Which sentence?" Li Ming seemed a little happy: "The one where you recognized me?"
"No." Su Mingan said, "That's what I said in the car."
"..." Dawn thought for a while, but she was not angry.
A has no angry emotions, it is just automatically analyzing and reasoning for his language. This is its program, or instinct.
"Liming, can you answer me a question?" Seeing that Liming didn't seem to have any mood swings, Su Mingan said.
"Of course." Li Ming nodded.
"What exactly is Ta Wei?" Su Mingan asked.
Hearing this, a slight lightning flashed in Li Ming's eyes:
"Tavi is our biggest enemy - it is more chaotic, more obscure, and more dangerous. As long as humans have faith, they will be tempted and invaded by Tavit. It will make you feel that no matter what, it is the right thing to do." As long as you acknowledge the ideas that Hewei has instilled in you, even if you only slightly agree with what they say, you will gradually become fully aware of Hewei..."
"Indoctrination? How does he want to instill ideas into people?" Su Mingan asked.
"It's like a whisper that suddenly rings in human ears, or a conversation with your soul." Liming said: "Today, the Taliban's infiltration methods into our world are not particularly tough, and they cannot directly seize our world by force. world, but can only affect humans from a psychological level, talking to people's hearts through whispers, and inducing humans to kill each other.
Su Mingan's heart skipped a beat.
This dawn's description of 'Tawei' gave him a feeling of familiarity.
He cannot seize the world through direct force, he can only infiltrate and seduce humans from a psychological level...
—Isn’t this the behavior of today’s organizers?
Instead of directly seizing Zhai Xing, and not letting everyone die instantly or become slaves, they used rules that seemed extremely fair.
The world game was built. We also use special status.
He felt chills running through his body.
The weird, depressing atmosphere in this basement affected him all the time, like ice-cold water flowing through his chest.
What is the relationship between the organizer and him? Or... the organizer also has a different concept?
He gradually realized the seriousness of the incident. From the first world to the ninth world, people's understanding of the world and dimensions gradually increases. More and more secretive ideas began to be subtly reflected from the copy. The first five worlds are relatively simple plot worlds, until the sixth world's theory of world dreams, the seventh world's theory of the change of gods, the concept of NPC awakening, or the eighth world's theory of world reincarnation, Xiao Ai's "hand over" "Origin, made a deal with the organizer"...and the other-dimensional concepts of the Ninth World, they are all hinting at something more and more deeply.
-It seems to be telling humans that some secrets need to be unearthed quickly, and your time is running out.
He thought of the blood-red light in Noel's eyes.
So, Noel was invaded by Tavi because Noel heard the secret whispers and recognized the ideas in these whispers, so he was invaded?
"Will humans who hear whispers definitely be invaded?" Su Mingan asked.
"Like I said just now, as long as you acknowledge his whispers even a little bit, you will be affected."
Liming said: "This kind of influence is not forced brainwashing or hypnosis, it is just an influence based on your ideas. As long as you have even the slightest idea of favoring other dimensions, you will gradually become more and more biased toward other dimensions."
Su Mingan frowned slightly.
He got it—it amounted to a “right of recognition.”
As long as you "recognize" his whispers, it's like handing over a permission. He will cross a certain boundary and start to directly affect you.
This method of intrusion is much lighter and gentler than the san value. It will not create illusions for you, but will only subtly change your thoughts - but the people whose minds have been changed are completely different from their previous thinking patterns - Is that still the original person?
As Plutarch proposed in the 1st century AD, the concept of "Ship of Theseus" - if a ship has its parts, decks, rudders, and even crew and captain replaced - then Is it still the same ship?
If Noel is like this and becomes a completely different person from before...
Su Mingan didn't dare to think about it.
He even began to consider whether he should immediately back off and stop Noel from listening to the temptation of the whisper.
But he didn't know when Noel was tempted. If Noel had listened to the temptation of whispers in the first three days of his stay in Central City, it would have been too late for him.
At present, the team chat has been very quiet, and Lu is collecting contribution points in the battle group camp. Luna investigates the Rose Blood case at Hawkdog. Yamada Machichi collects clues in the fringe area to find important NPCs. Lu Shu Lu Shu seemed to have just been kicked out of his job by his boss, and now he is working as a vagrant, commonly known as a street shopper. I wonder if this person will end up selling roasted sweet potatoes.
The players of the World Channel also stopped. Since Su Mingan took the initiative to return to Central City, the red alert was lifted. Some people regretted that no one received the reward in the end.
[Korcha (unaffiliated): Since Su Mingan will go back by himself, why won’t he let others take advantage of the reward? 】This is a message posted an hour ago.
Of course, this person was sprayed with blood, and a stream of swear words, mainly from Lu Shu, flooded the channel, "nmsl, wr, nn, are you a giant baby?", "wcnm, your mother is missing", "You cnm bitch, you need help from others for everything, why don't you go suck the milk?" and other phrases were so common that Lu Shu almost used up his five opportunities to speak.
But Noel, who always likes to chat in the team chat, has not had a single message so far.
According to Su Mingan's understanding of Noel, the second player on the list who advocates "embracing higher dimensions" and "embracing the new world" is very receptive to this concept from other world levels.
A high degree of acceptance means that it is easy to be penetrated and invaded, which means it is dangerous.
He still has a vivid memory of what Noel said to him on the Ferris wheel during the human self-rescue meeting.
[Su Mingan, humanity is about to be destroyed, and our future is bleak. 】【Even if we jump out of this game, what awaits us is still endless reincarnation. 】【And you and I both have "special identities given by the organizer", and we are both beings most suitable for evolution. 】【In the process of human development, we have always been good at breaking the old and welcoming the new. Even if some changes are too rapid,
Almost to the point of tearing apart and changing the world. But after passing through the long river of time, when we look back, those things that seem to bring about extensive destruction often become the beginning of a new era. 】【Since you can't resist, it's better to go smoothly. As long as we can take what we have passively endured and turn it into our own, in the end, we will be the ones who benefit...] When Su Mingan recalled Noel's words, he suddenly felt horrified.
As early as the end of the fifth world, had Noel seen so much?
He realized that Noel's philosophy was almost exactly the same as that of Kaskinen Philo, the leader of the Eagle Dogs - this was the philosophy of taking refuge in [Tavi], and it was clearly the result of being influenced by Tavi.
etc.
Did the invasion and infiltration of [Tavi] really just start from the Ninth World?
Su Ming'an silently thought of those humans who were like traitors, holding back no matter what, and even advocated seeking refuge with the organizers.
He previously believed that this was survivor bias, that there were many idiots in the human race who could not see the facts clearly, and that was why they were so stupid, thinking that the organizers would give them evolutionary gifts and favors.
…But now it seems that this is really these people’s own, independent thoughts?
Or,
These people... they had been... a long time ago...
He was covered in cold sweat.
He previously thought that the City of Measurement was a sieve that was invaded by Tawhid, and he was still secretly mocking the former Asa Acto for being so arrogant. As the ruler of the city-state, all the residents below were infiltrated, and he was still at peace in the Central City. Teach students with heart.
But now it seems that if the world of the Lord God becomes the same as the City of Measurement,
Then wouldn’t he also be an uninformed Asa Acto?
Cold sweat soaked his back, and he suddenly coughed up blood.
The strange sense of oppression brought by the blood streaks on the wall, and the cold feeling of ashes scattered all over his body. These negative emotions kept oppressing him, and the future he had been holding onto was a little bleak at this time.
"Cough, cough cough"
He coughed up blood, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of cloth, everything was blurry.
What should he do?
After realizing this...what should he do now?
If completing the level perfectly can redeem Zhai Xing, can this redeem the part that was taken away by him? Does its redeeming content include [all the negative impacts brought about by the world game]?
If not...
Then he succeeded in the end, what exactly was he redeemed for?
-The first is a dilapidated ship of Theseus, the entire ship has been replaced. Or a planet riddled with holes and filled with humans who admire him?
Are the things he loves the planet itself? Or are they the original living, colorful human beings?
A ship that can sail the seas for hundreds of years thanks to constant replacement parts. As long as a piece of wood rots,
It will be replaced, and so on, until no part is the original part.
But the question is, is the resulting ship the original Ship of Theseus, or a completely different ship? If it wasn't the original ship, then at what point did it stop being the original ship? If old parts taken from the ship of Theseus are used to build a new ship, which of the two ships is the real ship of Theseus?
He slowly, slowly raised his head.
In front of him, Li Ming, with a gentle expression, was looking at him, with countless tenderness in his simulated eyes.
After looking at each other for a moment, Su Mingan suddenly let go of his tightly held hands.
…He figured it out.
At this moment, he suddenly had an enlightenment and figured it out.
What he loves is not those humans. What he loves is a person who refuses to give up even though it is impossible, and must try to achieve the best outcome.
He didn't care that much about what humans would become, and whether they would still be themselves in the end. As long as these people are still alive,
As long as his planet is still there and he does his best, it's all worth it.
Of course, it would be better if he could strive a little bit more before that to preserve all human beings intact and prevent them from having their minds changed by him.
As long as that ship didn't sink, it stayed.
Then you will be satisfied if you drive this ship to the other shore.
However, he hopes that this route can be a little smoother and that there can be a little more surviving crew members. Therefore, with this ability, he will try his best to fight for that little bit more.
Just a little bit.
Try harder...just a little bit. .
