Chapter 453 Funeral
"Everyone, please pay attention to safety! Don't get off the bus without permission, we will pause here for ten minutes."
The voice of the tour guide in front was louder than the crowd, but the tourists were obviously focused on capturing the vigorous figures trampling the crocodiles across the river and carving a way out with their cameras.
Some of them were talking in low voices, with expressions of confusion and sadness; some were pointing forward excitedly, looking for the figure that was the strongest and most handsome in their minds; some were talking in low voices, discussing the significance of the Great Wildebeest Migration.
and origin...
"What do you think they are thinking about now?" Lu Mingze asked calmly.
They were sitting at the back of the car, just like unsociable children sitting in the loneliest corner on a spring outing, and like beings independent from the world and not belonging to any race, just quietly observing the joys and sorrows of these human beings.
"The Great Wildebeest Migration is a choice of the ecosystem, a natural choice, and nature follows natural selection. This is the survival law that all species still follow so far. There is no temperature and no right to choose. Some
It’s just a cruel, bloody reality.”
"There is no need for sympathy or applause. Living is the best gift."
"But human beings are very stupid creatures. They are very good at moving themselves. They often like to find so-called shining points in a cruel reality to move themselves and others, such as these people."
Lu Mingze pointed to a man who was excitedly cheering for the wildebeest that jumped over a group of crocodiles and successfully escaped. He also pointed to those with heavy faces, as if he was feeling the tragic journey of the wildebeest.
The woman was silent for a moment, her eyes thoughtful.
"I know, you are taking revenge on me." She said firmly, "Last time Tokyo was about to be destroyed, I took you to the airport to see all the things in the world and talk about life and ideals. So now that the world is about to be destroyed, you are pulling me too.
Come see the wildebeest and these stupid humans."
"Your behavior is so childish!"
Facing the woman's serious and serious tone, Lu Mingze also fell silent.
He glanced at the woman and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"You are indeed becoming more and more human." Lu Mingze sighed.
The woman's eyes widened: "Don't send me away just because you want to say something nice."
"Okay, I take it back." Lu Mingze said frankly, "Your clear stupidity is different from these humans. The difference is that they are born stupid, and you try to make yourself as stupid as them."
"What is this, maternal love?"
Lu Mingze stared at the woman in front of him. As the consciousness aggregate of this world, this person controls the ecosystem of this planet and has also single-handedly controlled all species changes in history.
Humanity is her masterpiece.
According to her own revelation, the template she chose comes from the Second Age.
"I'm very curious as to why you chose humans, a species that failed in the Second Solar Era, in this era."
Lu Mingze asked.
Humans are creatures that were born in the Second Solar Era, and the humans of that era were also called golden humans.
"Because someone told me that even the same person will have different changes when faced with the same situation. Facts have proved that she is right. Human beings in this era have taken a completely different path from the past. They truly belong to this planet.
The path of the planet is also the path I hope to see."
"The path you expect to see refers to the development of science and technology?"
The woman nodded without hesitation: "The Sea of Elements, you and your brother, and all the dragons, and everything related to the Sea of Elements, are things that should not appear on this planet and should be corrected."
"There is no future if this path continues, because the source is false reality."
"Human beings in this era have truly embarked on an unprecedented path, and it is also a path that belongs to this planet."
Speaking of this, the woman paused slightly and turned her head silently, as if she remembered another woman who had a eloquent conversation in front of her.
"The person who told you, is that Ouroboros?" Lu Mingze glanced at her, "What is she planning?"
"Planning?" The woman shook her head, "Her purpose has been clear from the beginning, which is revenge. Everything since then has been for this purpose, except for proposing to me to bring humans to this world again."
"Oh? Revenge?" Lu Mingze asked slightly curiously.
"The reason why I adopted her suggestion in the early years was because I saw something in her that I didn't understand, so I chose her genes as the original human template."
The woman said softly, "We are both remnants of the Second Sun Era and witnessed the tragic end together, but she and Metatron chose completely different paths. Metatron has always adhered to and carried out the legacy of his best friend, and
But she betrayed the Creator's last wish, and she wanted to end this cycle of tribulation that had taken away everything from her, so she called it revenge."
"She is indeed very special. She has many colors that I haven't understood yet, but I captured the most amazing thing about her and tried to perfectly preserve this part on the human beings of this era. Facts have proved that I did it.
"
Lu Mingze narrowed his eyes and said, "Which part are you referring to? Are you stupid?"
The woman whispered: "I used to not know how to describe this part of the color, but now I use 'love' to describe it."
"I came to you this time because I have a few questions I want to confirm with you." The woman suddenly turned her head, with a rare solemn look on her face, "If you are destined to have your own funeral in the near future, would you like this funeral?
Are you lonely?"
Lu Mingze frowned slightly, then nodded.
It's rare to hear this woman ask such interesting questions.
No one wants to live alone, but many people are willing to die alone because it means no one will be sad about their death.
Leaving without any ties is the best explanation for yourself and the world.
"Remember that night we were at the Tokyo airport?"
The woman said calmly,
"I have said that death is a very scary thing. It means that you will never hear the voices of your family again, you will never be able to hold your lover's hand, you will never be able to see the rising sun and setting sun tomorrow morning, and then in the passage of time,
Slowly being forgotten by everyone in the cracks."
"This is not only true for humans, but also for dragons."
"But if you have been prepared to face death for a long time and prepared your own affairs in advance, why would you take back your steps towards death in the end?"
At this moment, she looked at Lu Mingze with intense eyes.
"Just like you now, you have made all preparations and are just waiting for Frixis to weaken the elemental sea for you."
"You have decided to use your life to save the world, just so that your brother can continue to embrace the life he longs for. You are ready to face death, but now you suddenly regret it. Why? What is it like?
What reasons can make you timid now?"
Lu Mingze said expressionlessly: "It's impossible for me to be timid."
"I know, it's just a hypothesis." The woman looked at him with expectant eyes, "Think about it carefully, what reasons can make you timid now?"
Lu Mingze said word by word: "I can't retreat. There is no room for retreat before us. Either save the world or die together. This is the situation we face."
The woman asked seriously: "What if there is room?"
Lu Mingze looked at her with a strange look, and after a long time he said: "What exactly did you find, what are you verifying, or are you just showing off your stupidity?"
"You have been saying that your brother longs for the life he has now." The woman's voice was smooth but powerful, "But if you suddenly find that there is a place for you in the life he longs for, will your will be shaken and you have the idea of retreating?
?”
Lu Mingze's pupils narrowed and he said coldly: "Of course there will be a place for me in the life he desires, but I have no room to retreat. This war without gunpowder is destined to have victims."
The woman said thoughtfully: "So, if there is any room, you will hesitate and shrink because of your brother."
Lu Mingze was dissatisfied with her nonsense and said impatiently: "You said it clearly yourself, death is a very scary thing, especially since you are still tied to this world. If you can avoid death, who would want to die?
?”
The woman nodded.
She said nothing more, her brows regained their composure, and her eyes returned from the intense heat to the depths of an ancient well.
She turned her head and followed the crowd's gaze, and suddenly there was chaos in the wildebeest herd in front of her.
A group of young wildebeests were wandering on the shore, snoring and hesitating. Suddenly, the leader ran downstream. The river there was very shallow, and there were no enemies lurking in the water. The Nile crocodile couldn't stretch its arms and legs there, and then
As the first young wildebeest crossed the river safely, more and more young wildebeests gathered.
But at this moment, dozens of older wildebeests suddenly emerged from the wildebeest herd behind them and drove them back to their original place. The old wildebeests who had already crossed the river in front drove away the young wildebeests who had successfully crossed over.
Come back and prohibit them from crossing the river at a shallower place.
Some people in the car covered their mouths and exclaimed God, completely unable to understand the choices of those old wildebeests.
"This is the law of survival. Individuals can find shortcuts, but in front of the group, these are just cheating and sneaking." The woman said softly, "The consciousness of the group requires the old wildebeest to protect the younger generations to abide by the tradition, that is,
It’s the law of survival.”
"The tour group you came with came a little late. If you had come earlier, you would have witnessed the endless wildebeests galloping toward the Mara River between heaven and earth. Nothing can stand in front of them, but they will
Make a sudden stop on the river bank and hesitate on the bank until someone of the same kind jumps into the river first."
"The most dangerous people to cross the river are always the first ones. Most of the first people to cross the river are victims, and they are all old people who choose to die to arouse the emotions of their fellow tribesmen."
Lu Mingze's face was expressionless.
These wildebeests have little intelligence. Their limited brain capacity is filled with the so-called survival instinct. The continuation of the group is the most important thing in their poor minds.
He always felt that today, this woman's words meant something.
What is his ally planning?
"How are you going to prepare for your funeral?" the woman suddenly asked, "According to our agreement, your brother will not remember you by then. I may be the only one in the world who still remembers you."
"What style of funeral do you want?" She tilted her head, "As the only person in the world who may still remember you in the future, I can tailor it for you."
Lu Mingze sent her two words——
"unlucky."
Seeing Lu Mingze change his gaze, the woman slowly looked towards the sky in the distance.
Is death scary?
For some people, the truly terrifying thing is living alone and dying careless.
Many years ago, a man was willingly enshrined on the throne of God and sat in the cold temple. Later, he became the supreme god of the Dragon Clan.
He lived in seclusion and gradually made God a symbol and a symbol.
He allowed the tribesmen below to carve up the world, watching them conquer each other and sharpen their claws, rarely intervening.
Gradually, he truly became a symbol of coldness on the throne of God.
The world of the Dragon Clan has developed to the point where even if he dies today, as long as a new god is replaced, the world will still function normally, requiring only a trivial sacrifice.
He was fully prepared and calmly planned his lonely funeral.
For this reason, he has even found a successor.
When that day came, everything unfolded as he planned.
But things seemed to have changed. The man who was originally planning to fulfill the world by himself stopped walking toward death midway.
He broke the promise.
In the long period that followed, he also deliberately created another self.
The sun shone through the car window and fell between the seats. The woman turned her head and looked at Lu Mingze's side face.
She thought to herself, did he realize that everyone in the world could forget him, but the boy beside her now could never forget him, so he stopped in the end? Or even created another self?
…
…
Deep under the sea.
A silent submarine volcano stands beneath a research institute.
The sea water here is not dark blue-black, but flows with a bright golden-red light like molten gold, and the color of the water is almost like morning glow.
Schools of fish swim in the sea currents that flow like morning glow. The earth's crust breaks off below, and the red rock formations roll out.
The boundary between the golden lava and the black sea water is extremely clear. Dark red shrimps swim near the lava, and some dark purple creatures live in symbiosis with the shrimps.
The magma spewed out intermittently, and the seawater and the magma presented a strange scene like water and milk blending together, with faint thunder echoing below.
This is where Ouroboros's former research institute was located. Based on the submarine volcano, a complete ecosystem was created. It is like the burial ground under the waters of Tokyo, but it is far more complete.
Odin…
No, it's time to call him Frisius.
The tall figure stood in front of the volcano, a huge shadow fell at his feet, and the corpse made of his former dragon body stood quietly aside.
"Let's get started, everyone, it's time to come back."
Frisius said softly.
