The Old Ones, of course he knows this concept. The short story "Call of Cthulhu" describes the existence of this species.
Its greatest characteristic is that it contains infinite truths of the universe. When mortals glimpse its true face, they will go crazy or die because they cannot accommodate and understand that knowledge.
Another characteristic is that it is a type of monster created by people based on atheism and materialism.
It does not exist in traditional superstition, it shows a kind of cosmic fear.
Through the contrast between hugeness and smallness, it can create a fear of giant things in people.
And the huge gap in the grasp of knowledge and truth can cause real fear in people.
The knowledge and truth that humans have explored are just fragments and fragments. When people piece them together one day, they will discover the truth of the universe and fall into real fear.
This concept of "the truth of the universe brings fear" is actually involved in many science fiction novels.
For example, in "Three-Body", the scientists who committed suicide at the beginning discovered a little bit of scientific truth and believed that human physics was just a relic of a higher civilization and that all research was meaningless.
They believe that humans are like a group of turkeys in captivity. Some feeding rules they have developed will only take effect in a short period of time. When the owners want to eat turkeys, these rules will become invalid.
In the end they committed suicide because of this senselessness.
In contrast, the ignorant can enjoy short-term and certain happiness.
This is also what the creators of Cthulhu want to warn people - don't explore something too much. When exploring nature, stay in awe, don't be arrogant, and don't think that science can do everything.
And this world will be invaded by disasters and aliens, isn't it because of excessive exploration of the mysterious world?
It's a pity that people can no longer look back.
When Wen Rensheng thought of this, he already had a real solution.
If you want to deal with the chaotic omniscience, you have to keep people in a state of "ignorance".
The outline of a solution gradually emerged in his mind.
…………
Toto, Katsushika Ward.
Yueyingtian woke up from his deep sleep again.
Then he saw himself appearing in his original home.
It's just that this bedroom seems a little bit big.
"Tian, it's time to have breakfast."
"coming."
Is it mother's call?
A kind of fear arose in his heart, but also a glimmer of hope.
Then he climbed up from the tatami, changed his clothes, walked out of the room, and came to the living room, where the dining room was also.
The serious father was already kneeling down in front of the dining table, wearing a very expensive suit.
He had only seen that kind of suit on the school chairman.
"What's wrong?" asked the father.
"No, it's nothing. I seem to have had a long dream." Yue Yingtian lowered his head and said.
In front of you are very good and exquisite food, tempura, octopus balls, white rice...
These foods he could only see on other people's dining tables during festivals.
"Oh, there is too much pressure to get into higher education. You have to work hard and try to get into Shinoda High School. The deviation value there is more than 70. Only if you get there can you get into Tokyo University." My mother said with a smile.
"Well, I will work hard." Yue Yingtian said seriously.
He didn't quite understand what was happening.
It seems like he was reborn?
Could it be that Chaos Omniscient heard the call in his heart and fulfilled his wish?
Wait, what is Chaos Omniscient, a monster in a dream?
Yes, a boring monster, this is reality.
He looked at the extremely real parents and the extremely real family in front of him, and then bit his tongue hard.
"Oh, you kid, why are the corners of your mouth bleeding?" the mother said anxiously.
Every mother pays so much attention to her children that she can see even a little bit of injury.
This made Yueyingtian feel a sense of warmth.
Yes, this is the most real family.
The omniscience of chaos, the unity of all things, and the bald teacher are all dreams.
He thought hard like this, leaving a mark on his mind, and then said
"It's okay, Ocasan, I just want to eat meat." He said.
"Haha, do you want to eat meat? Mom, please buy more fresh Wagyu beef for your child for dinner." The serious father said with a smile on his face.
"Okay, the child's father."
The family happily ate breakfast.
Then Yue Yingtian went out.
The warm spring sunshine shone on his body, giving him a slightly unreal feeling.
No, this must be true. Those before were definitely all dreams.
Any disasters, monsters, or fires are all fake!
How could a normal person encounter those things?
It's all just a dream!
Yes, it’s a dream!
Hahaha, it’s all a dream, it’s all lying to me, nothing exists, only the sunshine in front of me is real!
With such a firm idea, Yue Yingtian walked towards the school.
"Yueying-kun!" A soft voice sounded from behind.
"Daoxiangzi!" He turned his head and saw the figure he had been looking forward to for a long time.
The two of them walked together, heading towards a nearby junior high school.
That's right, this is reality. You don't have to worry about what you'll have for your next meal, or whether some monster will crawl out of you.
Yue Yingtian came to the classroom of Class A of Year 3 and sat down in his seat. The entrance exam was just three months away, so he had to hurry up and study.
"Have you heard? Xiaocun from Class C just jumped off the building!"
"Oh, it must be that there is too much pressure to go to school. Poor Xiaocun, it's all his single father's fault. He always beats him after drinking, and will kill him if he doesn't get into Tokyo University."
The two classmates in front were whispering.
Committed suicide again?
Yueying Tian was thinking randomly in his mind.
Too much pressure to go to school leads to children committing suicide. This is normal and true.
Wouldn't it be ridiculous to commit suicide because you were afraid of monsters crawling into your home? That kind of thing can only happen in dreams.
Yueyingtian soon immersed himself in his studies. This kind of thing can only waste one minute of attention.
I don’t know how much time passed before a bald teacher walked in.
"Hello teacher."
"Hello, classmates, let's start the history class."
"What I want to review today is the Warring States Period, from 1467 to 1615, from the late Muromachi shogunate to the daimyo wars in the Azuchi-Momoyama period."
"The three most famous figures in the late Warring States Period, Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu, these three people ended the Warring States Period."
"Everyone, please review with me. These contents will be tested in the history exam for further studies."
Yueyingtian listened carefully, and as he listened, waves of indescribable noises came from outside the window.
…
…
…
What's going on? What's happening outside?
The Mackans? Why did they appear on the East Island?
Yueyingtian immediately looked through the history books, and it turned out that the East Island was being ruled by the Mackans.
It's really a shame and a great humiliation. At least in the dream, East Island is still free. Although the rule of the Tokugawa Shogunate is very corrupt, at least it will not let others come in and garrison it.
However, this is the real world.
If everything was as perfect as he saw before, then he would definitely suspect that he was actually dreaming...
