Later, someone else discovered that the more powerful the pollution source, the more likely it would instinctively reject other pollution, so the crowd dispersed and each sought their own way to survive.
People seem to be very fragile. A little illness can kill people, but people can also be tenacious. Just like wildfire, they are still strong in today's difficult circumstances.
As for the price of being close to a powerful pollution source, if it is a polluted area, you must abide by the rules and the accumulated mental pollution. When the mental pollution accumulates to a certain level, it will erupt in the form of a nightmare, torturing people's spirits.
If you get close to a giant beast, you don't have to follow the rules, but the giant beast is so terrifying, and it will keep moving. If you are too close, too much pollution will accumulate in an instant, and you will immediately fall into a nightmare, or even die from excessive pollution. , in addition to that, there is also the danger of being noticed by the giant beast...
"Do you think that what gives us strength is really spiritual energy?!"
Bai Luo did not directly respond to whether there was any hope, but asked this question.
"Many people believe that the disasters that lead to the end of the world are psychic natural disasters. Weak lives cannot adapt to powerful psychic powers, so they become extinct."
"What exactly is psychic energy?!"
The old man trembled a little when he heard this. He seemed to be shocked, but also seemed to be excited.
Bai Luo is very perceptive. She has lived in two lifetimes and once stood at the pinnacle of power and strength. Now, even if everyone else's strength is greatly reduced, she is still the most powerful one, so she instantly noticed the old man's abnormal reaction. .
"You seem to know something?!"
Bai Luo said.
"Sir..., sir, do you know that when psychic energy first appeared, my teacher, Dr. Minglun, who was scolded by many people for deliberately smearing extraordinary people, said at that time, Psionics may not be a good thing, but parasites and viruses, and extraordinary beings are just containers..."
The old man said, but he was thinking of the teacher who still insisted on researching despite all kinds of abuse.
At that time, my teacher was already in his nineties and was a master in psychiatry, life science, and electronic programming.
When psychic energy first appeared, faced with this mysterious phenomenon that could not be observed at all, many relevant experts and scholars labeled it as dark matter, or high-dimensional interference force and other conjectures. Dr. Minglun originally proposed that psychic energy No one supports the idea that it could be a virus.
As soon as these words came out, the others around him did not change much. They all seemed to have known about this for a long time. Only Bai Luo fell into some strange and confused mood at this moment.
It was only when he touched the divine realm above the fifth level and activated the Mother of Viruses that he realized the fact that psychic energy was actually a virus due to that deep integration.
But unexpectedly, when the virus first appeared, there were wise men who discovered the nature of psychic energy.
Therefore, Bai Luo couldn't help but wonder, if humans had chosen to support Dr. Minglun's idea at that time, whether the fate of humans today would be completely different.
But the reality is that because of human arrogance and academic disputes, that weak glimmer of hope has been strangled...
Things like this reminded Bai Luo of some science fiction stories he saw when he was still a student.
When she was still studying, science fiction had actually declined. The old works were still wonderful, but no new works could take over the glory of the past.
At that time, there were not many students in the school who liked to read science fiction. More students still liked to read fantasy and romance, such as the sadomasochism of Three Lives Three Worlds, which was even more common among girls.
At that time, when Bai Luo went to see science fiction, he didn't really like this genre. He just simply thought that it made him different and cool.
In science fiction stories, they like to discuss the future of mankind very much, and they always like to design tragic endings, as if they want to prove the cruelty of the universe and the stupidity of mankind.
Because those designed tragic endings are not completely irresistible destruction, but before the destruction, human beings have seized opportunities, but either because of arrogance, weakness, or stupidity..., they seize the opportunity. Finally, I gave up again.
Bai Luo remembered that there was a story about how humans planned to build a spaceship in order to escape the attack of aliens, but lacked key technologies. However, it turned out that humans themselves gave up on the nascent technology and chose other technologies. option, and finally humankind perished.
Indeed, in the story, it seems that even if humans do not give up, they may not be able to build a spaceship in the end, but when they know that this option is available, people can't help but think, if they had done this in the first place...
Bai Luo was thinking like this at this moment.
Indeed, she also knew that with the level of human technology, even if research was conducted in this direction, it would be difficult to prevent the end of the world, but what if...
"Your teacher is right."
"Unfortunately, no one can guarantee that no one, no matter how good they are, will always make the right choice..."
After a long time, Bai Luo murmured.
"When humans know the truth, everything is irreversible."
"Actually, when faced with your problem, I should have deceived you and told you that there is still hope for mankind, and I am looking for it so that you can finally die with hope, just like I have always done before, but now, I I don’t want to deceive anyone anymore.”
"Human beings are not the protagonist of this world, viruses are. This is the truth I noticed during the cataclysm."
"It should be the rules, the rules of the world's operation, the constants of the universe, something went wrong, and then disaster broke out. If we want to hope, we can either repair the world or adapt to the world, but unfortunately, we can't do anything."
Even during the cataclysm, when he knew that mankind had no future, and when he knew that everything he created was gone, Bai Luo was not as painful as he was now.
The most painful thing in the world is not infinite despair, but hope flashing before your eyes, but not being able to grasp it. Even if the hope is false, as long as it is not grasped, it is no different from the real thing.
Bai Luo's voice echoed, and the crowd on the opposite side still had no reaction when they heard the truth. It seemed that they already had such an answer in their hearts.
As for Bai Luo, he suddenly felt that he could no longer walk.
"You don't have to be so pessimistic, at least we're still alive now, right?!"
The old man felt relieved at this moment.
"Every generation has its own path. Even if we are the last generation, at least we must complete our own path."
"I have research materials left by the teacher here. Even when it was the most chaotic, I didn't throw it away and brought it all the way here..."
"Actually, even I have been wondering whether the teacher made a mistake before, but now that I know the teacher is right, I feel relieved."
"As the teacher's favorite student, I am doubting the teacher's conjecture, let alone others?!"
"I can only say that when it comes to this, the truth is too unbelievable."
…
On the other side, Chu Guang was on his way alone at the moment.
As he hurried on, he was also recalling the contents of "Those Years" in his mind. If he remembered it well and ruled out Bai Luo's arbitrary fabrication of details, this should be the time when Bai Luo learned about Dr. Minglun.
I remember that when he read this paragraph, he couldn't help but feel that his fate was so wonderful.
But at this moment, he himself was reborn once. Thinking about his own experiences in the future and the future outcome of the World Federation, he couldn't help but feel a strong sense of fate. It seemed that fate was like circles, but some circles were big and some were small. .
Destiny is unpredictable. No one knows which will come first, accident or tomorrow.
Just like at the beginning, not long after the spiritual energy of this world appeared, extraordinary beings were born. Many people thought that was the turning point of the new world, and then the end came.
Just as in the previous life, the One World Federation was fighting against heaven and earth. Everyone believed that under the leadership of the Emperor, the One World Federation could become immortal and eternal, becoming the greatest civilization. Then, everything was destroyed.
He doesn't know about the cycle of calamity, but he just feels it's wonderful. Otherwise, he will definitely give birth to something like this cycle. How can such a cycle be avoided in the world? Such thoughts come.
