Chapter 49: Symbols of the Human Will

Wolf Yan and Bad Sun walk side by side inside the Tower of Babel.

But at that moment, Bad Ri's remaining eye suddenly shrank, his steps paused, and Lang Yan also suddenly raised his head, subconsciously reaching out and touching his heart.

What happened just now?

【Amyrus is dead】

And the emotionless synthesized voice of the deer-headed statue sounded from beside him.

[Just now, he liberated his own destiny]

"Oh, that old man."

Bad Ri sighed: "Among the elf directors, he is one of the rare good people."

"How do you judge good people and bad people?" Lang Yan said casually. "It's very simple," Bad Ri replied, "He has been using this old and decaying body for a long, long time. But he has never used the mother tree system.

Come and be reborn." Because he had long known that the mother tree system had been tampered with.

He is a good old man. He doesn't like to offend people.

Therefore, Amirus did not quarrel with his "kind". He hardly used his various privileges as an elf director, but at the same time he did not object to others using them. There may not be many people with such a character.

He is a true friend, but there must be many similar people who have a good relationship with him.

Of course, someone had advised him that he could have given up on such a decaying body long ago. But the old man just shook his head happily and pretended to be stupid, without commenting.

After all, his destiny was "persistence". It was normal for the old man to be stubborn. So over time, no one tried to persuade him. People regarded the purpose of his behavior as "fulfilling his destiny."

"But in fact, he just didn't want to take other people's lives."

Bad Ri said softly: "As long as he gives a command, someone will arrange his reincarnation. Without him having to do any work, those flattering licking dogs will automatically analyze his appeal and arrange for him a body that is better than his own.

Materials that are more suitable for him, and a complete system is designed to properly educate and screen them to ensure that they obtain a perfect reincarnation material and multiple spare bodies."

"Well, Lothar also told me."

Lang Yan nodded: "These named elves were actually not great people thousands of years ago. They were just survivors who came riding on the seven giant dragons after the destruction of the old civilization.

"In the beginning, they were more than 4,000 people who were selected from among the billions of citizens in the old world as "pioneers of civilization." This is enough to show that they have extremely outstanding talents; but on the other hand,

Since they will be sent out in batches and aimlessly instead of staying on earth, it also means that they must not be at the top level."

Their qualities are very good, but they can never be the best. This is a pioneering project with no guarantee of survival rate, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they will die. It is impossible for the best talents to be dispatched on such a project.

In the end, the final survival rate of more than 4,000 people was less than 100. A survival rate of less than 2% sounds as ironic as a card-drawing mobile game.

"But those 'materials' are different. As named elves, they are already the de facto rulers of this world. Of course they can get the best bodies - even the giant dragon doesn't think there is any problem with this.

." Lang Yan sneered.

As a survivor of the old civilization and a leader of the new civilization, replacing the best body with a young and energetic body is of course conducive to the development of work.

Bad Sun continued: "As far as I know, there are not many named elves who have not changed their bodies, not even one hand. But the others were quite young before, and only Amirus was transformed into an elf.

, already over sixty years old.

"The elf's permanent technology prevents him from getting any serious diseases due to the decline in physical skills, but the decay and aging of the body are still there. Not to mention that it is a full thousand years of aging."

Aging itself can wear down a person's mind.

Maintain the body of an old person for a thousand years - and as long as you want to give up, you can immediately get a young and healthy body. And each indicator can be defined by yourself

.

After hearing this, Lang Yan finally understood why Bad Ri said this.

He was immediately in awe of Amirus: "That is indeed amazing. I don't think I can do it.

"Has he finally decided to be reincarnated now?"

[He can no longer be reincarnated]

The voice of the deer-headed statue came: [Just now, the mother tree system was destroyed. In other words, Amyrus is completely dead this time]...

"The old man is probably tired."

Bad Ri sighed: "This old man can take a breather."

Lang Yan asked directly to the deer-headed statue: "What role can his destiny play?"

【——Can reverse the future】

The deer-headed statue answered very quickly.

Upon hearing this, both Bad Ri and Lang Yan looked surprised.

Not long ago, they had just heard the pessimistic prophecy of the deer-headed statue. In order to reverse this prophecy of world destruction, they were prepared to die.

Bad Ri asked: "What do you mean?"

[It’s just that we have a chance. If originally we were like walking alone through wild beasts, poisonous insects, cliffs, and quagmire in a dark dense forest. We didn’t even have a chance to see the danger. Now, at least we have an unbreakable thread.

Torches that will go out, and endless bandages]

The deer-headed statue rarely said a long series of words.

Lang Yan understood what she meant: "You mean, we don't need to kidnap the dragon?"

Their original plan was to imitate the Pope - since the Pope can kidnap a giant dragon, so can they. No matter what illusions, world wars, or fallen angels, they should at least smash the gray dome first and fight for people to survive.

possible.

But in fact, neither the deer-headed statue, Bad Sun, nor the bad guys themselves have the confidence that "such a plan can succeed." Because even the deer-headed statue can't see hope for the future.

Now, the situation has finally taken a new turn.

【I saw it】

The synthesized voice of the deer head image was plain, clear, and emotionless, but Bad Day seemed to hear a crying little girl in it: "This time I did see the future. I finally understood the Pope's overall plan - and

Why can’t I see hope in our previous plans?]

"He set a trap?"

Bad Sun immediately reacted: "On the dragon or the gray dome?"

[It's Gray Dome. The Gray Dome system was not damaged, but the power of his Holy Order was poured into it, causing it to be unable to display normally - the crimson power of Holy Order used by the fallen angels. Then

It is the power of the holy order that is extended by anti-electrons and belongs exclusively to the Holy Order promoted by the Pope.

[Like the Paradise Bird's 'Revenge' and the Sheath's 'Anti-Electron, they both belong to the power of the Holy Order of the red system. They all mean resistance to something]

[And its essence is 'Anti-Superman.' Just like the Holy Order named 'Anti-Electronic,' it is people from the old era who took away their jobs, invaded their privacy, and controlled their lives due to the advanced productivity of the electrical age.

The resentment of freedom, and the desire to destroy these things to bring them peace.

['Anti-Superman' is a newly born power of the Holy Order, but it existed earlier. This is the resentment of those who are born ordinary but without special talents for thousands of years towards the inequality of being 'born extraordinary'

.The scope it targets has been expanded to psychic powers, spells, and the power of the Holy Order itself, as well as immortal species such as elves, and giant psychic mechanical beings such as dragons.

[The operating method of 'Anti-Electron' is to permanently destroy these electronic devices, which is a radical power of Holy Order; while 'Anti-Superman' is a fairer and gentle power of Holy Order, and its operation is just

Neutralize these extraordinary powers. Bring the high-level power back to the same level as yourself, that is, bring down the expressive power that is beyond ordinary people.

[Even if you really control the dragon, I'm afraid you won't be able to break through the gray dome guarded by the 'Anti-Superman'. Although it is pitch black on the outside, there is still a crimson shock-absorbing net lurking inside.

[These extraordinary beings must be brought into contact with Gray Dome

It is already extremely difficult to neutralize the power of these Holy Orders - not to mention that we do not have the technology to create an aircraft that can approach the gray dome and fall down, and the temperature is cooling down every day.

Down, launching people high into the sky is tantamount to killing people...

[I saw from the future that if you want to counteract the power of the Holy Order, you must contact the Gray Dome. Basically, it can be said that it is impossible to complete unless you are willing. And if a psyker or angel is killed

, the possibility of purifying the black dome is reduced by one point]

"No wonder."

Lang Yan murmured in a low voice: "That's why my attack failed to knock them all down."

When they met those crimson angels in the reconstruction agency before, he launched an attack on those angels. It was a hurricane that was enough to tear a small town apart. The mercenaries of Shenzhi Heavy Industry were all killed, but those angels were not.

Not many were beaten down.

After coming into contact with them, Lang Yan found that his spiritual power had become weaker.

Bad Day also understood: "Is this the strategy the Pope came up with to target the Twilight Species..."

"But I still don't think he can succeed."

Lang Yan clicked his tongue: "Russell is not from this world, his power comes from the outside world. He is the variable. All the extraordinary power in this world comes from the dream itself. How can the power extended from the dream be able to withstand the dream itself?

?It’s as ridiculous as borrowing money from the other party to buy the other party.

"Furthermore, I don't think the Pope can weave a web of Holy Orders that can neutralize all other extraordinary powers. Because in the end, not everyone will resent this inequality. In other words,

Even if the power of resentment is completely concentrated on the Gray Dome, it will never reach 100%. Not to mention that a considerable part will be distributed to those angels."

[No, Lang Yan. In fact, you haven’t understood it yet. This is his cunning and the trap he has set]

"--I see."

Bad Ri suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped the bad guy: "Stop for a moment, Lang Yan. There is no need to go to the dragon."

When the deer-headed young man looked at him in confusion, Bad Ri's expression darkened. The white-haired young man's expression was obscure and his brows were furrowed: "I know why you said that we didn't have any hope before.

"——Because this is the ultimate test. It is a difficulty that humans can never pass. "If 'Anti-Superman' were stronger, to the point where all extraordinary powers must be returned, it would actually be easier to solve -

-Because we have no choice. If we don’t do this, we will die together, and things will become simpler.

"But it is precisely because the power of 'Anti-Superman' is so weak that we don't know how much psychic energy is needed to purify the black dome to the point where it can be shattered normally."

"I understand too."

The inferior person reacted: "Because of people's suspicion and selfishness."

"you're right."

Bad Day nodded.

No one can sacrifice a few for the many, but everyone can choose to sacrifice for others or not to sacrifice themselves.

Even if this sacrifice has nothing to do with life, it is just one's own "privilege".

From another perspective, how do people who have no power in the first place view these self-sacrificing people? Will their attitudes make them feel cold and make subsequent people choose to resist?

There is another temptation hidden here at the same time.

That is, if the sacrifice of others can solve this problem, you can naturally leave your own special power behind, and become a transcendent in the new world where the gray sky is shattered and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant - just like an elf.

With the dragon.

The reason why people's hatred of the supernatural is not strong enough is because this hatred can be transformed into the desire to "replace" it.

And people who are willing to give everything for others can never be "all". Especially when people realize that selfish people can steal the ultimate benefits, the sacrifice of the victim becomes even more worthless.

This is a dead end.

A prisoner is sleepy

territory.

The most terrifying thing is that the Pope is still growing.

As more and more people upload their minds, the protective power of the Black Dome will become stronger and stronger, and more and more forces will need to be neutralized by the victims. Time waits for no one.

At the same time, the weather is getting colder and colder. The risk of contact with the black dome will become greater and greater, and this will make those who are still hesitant to refuse become more and more wavering and hesitant.

Although he was unwilling to do so, Lang Yan did clearly realize that the world was being destroyed. And he had reached the last step before the cliff.

"But, you said you saw the future."

He frowned and felt anxious: "Of course I can sacrifice, but I think it will definitely not be enough for us alone."

[This is the moment when a ‘miracle’ needs to be shown]

The deer-headed statue said calmly: "My destiny is a plan and a prophecy. Only if I use the power of miracles to spread accurate and true information to everyone's hearts, and imprint the plan in everyone's soul, can people live in peace."

In the shortest time, with the highest efficiency, we must race against time to complete this great undertaking - saving the world.

[I believe that it would be more cost-effective to temporarily unify mankind than to return my ‘miracle to the sky]

Bad Sun was silent for a while and said, "But I remember that you cannot actively use the power of miracles."

[Because there is another Tokifat]

The deer-headed statue replied: "That's why I called you here. I can still open the door for you a few times at the end."

[Bad Day, I hope you can kill Tokifat. Your relationship with him is far enough. Even if he has the power of Anti-Superman to protect him, the probability of you defeating him is not low.

[After that, you have to go to the 'Temple' with Lang Yan. At this moment, the defense there is relatively empty. I hope you can destroy the Holy Scripture server as soon as possible, prevent the birth of new angels, and prevent the Pope's unlimited power.

Rebirth]

"What about the Pope himself? He has stolen the dragon's heart and regained his body."

Bad Sun realized a flaw in this arrangement: "You don't think that he is still in the 'Sacred Scripture' after being promoted, do you? I'm afraid there aren't even new angels there."

"——The Pope's side, I'll take care of it."

Russell's voice came from around the corner.

A young man who looked like he was tired of life slowly walked out.

His appearance looks the same as before, except that his eyes have become a bit darker. But it is this slight difference that makes him change from a "boy" to a "young man".

Seeing Russell appear, there was a little surprise in Bad Ri's eyes, and Lang Yan also subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. It was as if there was nothing to be afraid of.

"You finally connected everyone's minds?"

Bad Ri bared his teeth and beamed with joy: "Does this mean we can seal the dream?"

"--No."

Russell denied: "On the contrary."

"…What's the meaning?"

"Because there is not enough time. According to my original plan, I am afraid it will take another two years to fully access the sea of ​​group subconscious and gain access."

Russell said softly: "Andrew chose this time to attack because he realized that I was about to succeed.

"Under the current state, it is impossible for humans to solve the 'Andrew Dilemma.'"

I must eliminate the influence of illusions on this world, and this means that if I don't take action, mankind will not be able to break through the great dark sky.

"If we wait another two years, the high altitude will completely become a restricted area for life. Everyone who goes up there will die, and by then there will really be no hope of salvation."

"Now, the whole world is waiting for me. My current access rate is about 75%, and the probability of successfully sealing the dream is almost three-quarters.

"But fortunately, Andrew is not ready either."

If the Pope prepares for another year or two, he can cultivate a terrifyingly powerful fallen angel army and completely crush this group of fallen angels.

In this world, they can even control seven giant dragons at the same time. Instead of like now, they can only steadily control Happy Island, while other empty islands are even at a disadvantage.

By then, the black dome really cannot be opened.

But because the Pope didn't know how long Russell would have to retreat to complete, he didn't dare to bet - this was the only information he didn't know and absolutely couldn't know. If Russell succeeded in swallowing the dream, or the seal failed and he woke up at dusk,

No pope can survive the power of a complete Twilight Species.

Therefore, the Pope chose to attack in advance, forcing Russell to take action immediately.

This "Black Dome Project", this big dark sky, is not only a prisoner's dilemma that troubles all extraordinary people, but also an invitation to a duel issued to Russell as a human being.

"I do want to meet him."

Russell lowered his head and spoke softly in a dreamy tone. It was as if if you exert a little force, something would become uncontrollable.

"I want to ask him...what exactly is he thinking and what is he going to do? Even I can't read his mind. He is no longer a human being."

[This matter must be completed before I awaken my destiny]

The voice of the deer-headed statue sounded calmly: [Amirus must die so that mankind can persist; I must complete the sacrifice so that mankind can understand everything; you must swallow the dream, so that mankind can unite. Three elements are indispensable]

"Eternal night has arrived."

Russell slowly raised his head, and the dim yellow filled his eyes, not just his pupils: "'Tower of Babel, the spaceship has lost power. We can no longer transport across the island until the sky is lit up again.

"Just like the people on Happy Island lost the network they relied on, we are about to lose our universal door."

"I'm just aggrieved for you. It's too painful for you."

Bad Ri's eyes were complicated: "The baby is about to be born in Delphinium in about two or three months. But I'm afraid you won't be able to see that scene."

"Compared to Amyrus, compared to the deer-headed statue, I am nothing."

Russell shook his head slightly.

He raised his head and closed his eyes: "Open the door for us one last time, deer-headed statue.

"——Whether they succeed in destroying the Bible server or not, remember to bring them back alive."

【Have a good journey】

The deer-headed statue's voice was calm and cold.

【I'm very happy to meet you】
