Looking at Klia who had arrived early, Yang Ming said:
"Am I late?"
"No, I just arrived."
"Where do you want to see today?"
"It's an aquarium."
"Let's go."
Yang Ming and Klia walked slowly through the street.
Today she was wearing a long-sleeved white sweater, short skirt, black tights and long leather boots.
"Do you really want to get along with this little sister?"
On the way to the destination, Yang couldn't help but ask.
"No, I'm just relaxing."
"What if she really falls in love with you?"
"It doesn't matter, I just want to experience human life."
"You...huh?"
Yang was shocked by this casual remark.
Thinking of this strange reaction, Yang Ming himself came to his senses. In psychology, this unconscious reaction can be interpreted as some kind of information.
Maybe Yang Ming himself doesn't regard himself as a human being. Although Yang repeatedly emphasizes his race, it will not affect this perception. He has always regarded himself as a human being.
Hormone resistance may also have an impact, but because I am good at mental strength, the negative effects will actually be offset.
So what exactly happened to me? My memory before time travel is also vague. I can only roughly know that I should still have a normal career trajectory.
"Haha, I'm just kidding. I think Klea herself is also preoccupied and is not so easy to capture. Maybe we can get some meaningful information from her in the future."
"That's right."
Yang didn't say anything more. It was better not to think too much about this kind of thing.
When we arrived at the aquarium, there was still no one around.
No tickets are required, just walk in and visit as you like.
Of course, there are no living creatures in the aquarium here. The artificial intelligence will not do this kind of thing that requires additional consumption of resources.
In fact, they are some technological devices that imitate an aquarium. All the aquariums are displayed with holographic images.
Because it is a one-to-one restoration, the effect on the screen is still very real.
At present, only the core star field of the Human Alliance should have planets dedicated to preserving these Earth-era species.
The two of them just watched in silence as various marine creatures passed by on the screen.
"Why do you suddenly want to come see this?"
Yang Ming was the first to break the tranquility. Although it was his first time here, a lot of information could be learned from the knowledge base and did not need to be experienced in person.
"I just want to see life in this traditional sense."
"What do you think of these life forms?"
"Short-lived, without change, without possibility."
It is said that on those planets that are dedicated to preserving species, even if humans do not interfere much, there are no signs of evolution. It seems that everything has been fixed. Even after five billion years, it is still the same.
"...Well, it's useless to give other species more time, so you think this is because of the special characteristics of human beings?"
"If it was really so special, there wouldn't be so many random aliens."
"That's true, but it has been peaceful for a long time now, and local threats are not something to be afraid of."
On top of the Pioneers, there are the Alliance Fleet and the Space-Time Administration, two stronger combat organizations, so just a little alien intrusion is not a big deal.
"Can it really be called peace now?"
Clea smiled, and a huge whale happened to pass by on the screen.
"Do you think the world will be less peaceful in the future?"
"I just have this feeling. A different aura is spreading throughout the universe."
Clea does have a certain degree of perception, and she has shown before that she can directly feel Yang Ming's consciousness when he looks down.
"So how are you going to deal with it now?"
Yang Ming leaned his body against the aquarium and looked at Kelia.
"Anyway, let's get the power of eternal life first."
"Oh, so you are from the Eternal Ones' faction?"
The current lifespan of ordinary human beings, without intervention, starts at least several hundred years. If there is intervention, this number can be increased infinitely, and in various ways.
However, not everyone has this idea of living longer. Since the soul capturing technology has been perfected, it is not difficult for the same soul to be reincarnated again.
When the life support device is connected, the soul can be temporarily suppressed in place at the moment of death.
After that, a special recovery team will go there. If the body is still intact and the life-support device can still operate, the soul can be recovered.
They can then be reassigned to the training cabin and given a new lease of life. These people are called reincarnationists.
Of course, these actions are entirely based on the contract signed during life. If the person concerned is not willing, the life-support device can be automatically released, so that the soul will escape the body.
The destination of these escaped souls, as Yang said before, may be recovered by the source, gods, other unknown beings, or become ownerless ghost bodies.
Both the immortality sect and the reincarnation sect actively want to continue living. The difference actually comes from whether to use the original body to live forever, or to change the body and regain a new life.
There is a fundamental problem here, that is, the soul is not actually suitable for storing memories. It may be able to store some of it, but it cannot accommodate most of it.
This raises a question: are people still the same people after reincarnation?
According to Yang Ming's own opinion, as long as the first perspective is still there, he should still be the same person, but he has strange abilities after all.
There are actually many opinions on the differences and various solutions between the two factions, and there is no rush to draw conclusions for the time being.
"Of course, I definitely want eternal life more. I don't believe that I can still be the same person after losing my memory."
Clea replied very decisively.
"Have you thought of any method?"
"The power I gained recently is very suitable."
Clea raised her right hand and made a fist, stretched out her index finger and middle finger, placed them in front of her face, and during the process of swiping the gesture, a strange aura emanated from her body, and it could be seen that there was some kind of color changing effect.
"Is it magic? This is indeed a suitable way to increase lifespan through practice. How did you do it?"
Although Yang Ming already knew the reason, he still pretended to know it for the first time, so Clea chatted with him for a long time, telling him about the process of meeting the crystal giant and obtaining the spiritual core.
After that, the two of them continued shopping around, looking at the new clothes in the clothing store, going to a bakery for snacks, and playing some arcade games in the video game store.
At dusk, Yang Ming was walking on the road, and he saw Kelia putting her hands behind her back, walking a few steps backward from Yang Ming's side to the front.
"Don't forget to come to the meeting tomorrow, in a store over here."
"Oh, I see."
Celia waved goodbye to Yang Ming and left briskly.
Yang Ming also returned to his residence and waited for tomorrow's meeting.
