As soon as I sat down on the bench by the fountain, a familiar figure walked out of the crowd.
Han Kongwen took a closer look, and joy filled his brows.
As the current spiritual leader of the Shenqi clan, although Lin Yan has stepped down from the position of manager, she is now more like a "god" in the true sense to the residents of the Shenqi clan.
Therefore, when she appeared, passers-by who accidentally saw Lin Yan knelt down one after another.
The scene was very similar to the scene when princes and nobles traveled during the imperial period.
The difference is that one surrenders under the coercion of the sword, while the other respects from the heart.
Even Xuan'er is the same, she must kneel down on one knee to express her respect for "god" in public.
——
Leaving the busy streets, Lin Yan took Han Kongwen to the center of the temple.
Here you can overlook the entire Piano, and you can admire the axis pillar of the Divine Enlightenment family. This is the place where the spiritual consciousness of all the citizens of the Number Sequence merges.
Han Kongwen walked along the edge of this huge platform and sighed: "The feeling here for me... is even more shocking than when I first climbed onto the dome mast of Cerberus..."
Lin Yan smiled and said nothing, silently following Han Kongwen.
While walking, Han Kongwen stopped because she saw two hugging figures on the axis pillar.
This is also the only clear outline of the Axis Pillar.
Lin Yan came closer and said, "Do you still remember them?"
Of course...how could Han Kongwen not remember...
"Remember……"
"After they left, I copied their intelligence samples here. After I was free, I have been trying to unlock the secret of 'forbidden contact'." As Lin Yan spoke, the people hugging each other
Two more figures appeared next to the two figures.
Just as familiar.
"Is there anything gained?" Han Kongwen asked.
"Yes, but I feel it's still a lot worse..." Lin Yan said and walked forward, and steps naturally formed in the suspended area.
Han Kongwen followed, and the two of them quickly walked to the figure.
After getting close enough, Han Kongwen realized that the figure did not become rough due to the proximity, but became more and more vibrant. It felt... as if they were all back.
"The 'Saiosh' project originally hoped to achieve the true sense of personality completion by integrating human spiritual will, and then create a god who can distinguish between illusion and reality, so that it can bring hope to the world... In other words...
Many, many years ago, those who formulated the 'Saiosh' plan already knew about the existence of the Central Veil..."
Han Kongwen listened silently, the figures in front of her gradually merged, and soon... the person who turned into eternity appeared in front of her.
"But what exactly is the central curtain? I have been thinking about this question." Lin Yan waved her hand, and the axis pillar opened its arms.
The two of them continued forward and entered the ocean of primitive numbers inside the Axis Pillar.
It was said to be the sea, but the water only reached Han Kongwen's ankles, so she took off her shoes and tied the skirt around the crook of her legs.
Lin Yan is almost the same.
This feeling is very familiar, just like the feeling they had when they played volleyball on the artificial beach in Cerberus.
Sailosh's figure has disappeared.
In the primitive ocean of numbers, a pale ancient tree reaches straight into the sky. Its branches are covered with small bright red flowers. The flowers fall into the light blue sea water and rise and fall with the waves, giving people a sense of beauty.
A sense of beauty.
"What do you think the central curtain is?
"Huh?" Lin Yan asked as she walked towards the big tree.
Han Kongwen: "I think it is like the tree in front of us. It was planted by our ancestors to provide shade for future generations."
Lin Yan laughed after hearing this: "It seems that our ideas coincide with each other... But it's really shameful to think about it this way."
"oh?"
"The trees they planted were so tall that we still can't surpass them. Isn't it very discouraging to think about it?"
"Haha, sister's thinking angle is really unique." Han Kongwen smiled and fell into silence.
The two stopped a few hundred meters away from the big tree.
From here you can already see the details of the tree in complete detail.
The pale branches are composed of broken, imperfect human bodies. They embrace and rely on each other, and together they form this tree that symbolizes the "center".
——
"I'm at a loss now..." Han Kongwen expressed his anguish.
After hearing this, Lin Yan raised her hand. The sea water in front of the two of them was churning. In the blink of an eye, a small table and two chairs appeared in front of them.
"Sit down and talk."
Han Kongwen was surprised when he saw it, and then he was relieved. This was the ocean of primitive numbers, and Lin Yan here... was a "god"-like existence.
"You know everything about what happened on Gaia, right?"
Lin Yan nodded: "A little bit."
"Then...what do you think these people want to do...why do they do this?"
Lin Yan did not answer, but asked instead: "I have received and listened to the conversation between you and Chu Yunlan. Didn't you feel the panic in her heart?"
Panic... Han Kongwen certainly felt it.
No matter whether the person being imprisoned at this moment was Chu Yunlan or not... her fear and uneasiness had been clearly conveyed to Han Kongwen.
But Han Kongwen also knew very well that although this man was uneasy, he would not stop.
Seeing Han Kongwen's silence, Lin Yan asked: "Do you think it makes any difference to ordinary people whether the world is true or false?"
Han Kongwen shook his head: "There is no difference."
"Yes, there is no difference. Whether it is the darkest civilization period before King Xin, or the imperial period when science and thought are mired in quagmire. For the general public, it is nothing more than that times have changed, leaders have changed, ideas, concepts and rules have changed.
What has changed... What remains unchanged is always the only pursuit, which is individual happiness." Lin Yan said, as her feet changed, and the huge ocean seemed to turn into a screen showing the appearance of all living beings.
As long as Han Kongwen lowers his head, he can see the lives of many ordinary people.
Joy, anger, sorrow, three meals a day...these are the most ordinary people and the most ordinary life.
What kind of central curtain, what kind of ocean of numbers, these things are too strange and far away for them.
The general public shows the most precious resilience of life in their simplest way.
Living... is the most basic form of life.
Living happily is the most basic ideal of an individual.
As for how human civilization develops... what is the significance of the central curtain... the end that the Destroyers will bring to the world... these are all too far away and unreal for ordinary people.
"Her panic...can you really feel it now?"
Han Kongwen was still a little confused.
Lin Yan didn't say it directly, not because she didn't want to say it, but because specific objective concepts could not fully convey the subjective resonance.
All this still requires Han Kongwen himself
to think.
Understand it yourself.
——
"Why did you obediently tell us this after you killed them and let us find the number array?"
Chu Yunlan lowered his head, fiddled with the corners of his clothes a few times and said, "Because I'm afraid."
"Afraid? What are you afraid of?"
Chu Yunlan smiled. Although her long-term closed confinement made her mental state extremely poor, her beauty was still there.
"Afraid that I'll actually achieve my goal and find out I was wrong."
"Your goal? Destroy all mankind?"
Chu Yunlan shook his head: "It is to destroy this world and put an end to all of this."
——
"This is not a matter of distortion of one's mind...You have to skip this idea...go to a deeper place to look...think in a deeper place..."
"But what if they're just crazy?"
"No... madmen will not be afraid... madmen will only carry out their own ideas. It is impossible for them to talk to us, because in their eyes... we are also madmen."
"position?"
"not completely……"
"I...I really don't understand..."
"That's because you haven't found the specific outline yet."
"contour?"
"right."
"contour……"
——
It was already past 9pm when Han Kongwen woke up.
When they came to the living room, Zhang Yu and his wife were eating. They were starving. After all, they hadn't eaten all day.
Seeing Han Kongwen come in, Zhang Yu hurriedly put down his things, wiped his hands and picked up the crystal plate. It seemed that he planned to report his plan of action.
Han Kongwen said: "Don't worry, you can eat first. Professor Su An will come over later, and he and I need to discuss something."
Saying that, Han Kongwen went to the tarmac.
Zhang Yu was a little confused, but he had no choice but to sit back.
——
At around 10:11 that night, Su An took a Hunter and arrived at Han Kongwen's secret base.
Also traveling with him was Zyra.
The two people looked solemn, and it looked like something bad had happened.
After receiving the two, the three entered the space laboratory below the underground base at a depth of 170 meters below sea level.
This is a special laboratory built in accordance with Su An's requirements. It is mainly used to simulate the realization of "space interposition" and "double cone symmetry".
After entering the laboratory, the omnic assistants controlled by the secret base inside the laboratory woke up one after another.
There are twenty-five of them.
The intelligent assistant, which looks just like a human on the surface, quickly enters the work place according to the program.
Soon after, the laboratory entered into operation. In the middle of the dark gray empty room, a black Yiyuan sub-board with a side length of 120 cm, a height of 30 cm, and a thickness of 3.6 cm slowly rose.
The Yi Yuanzi board with excellent testability is not only the darling of the military community, but also a frequent visitor in contemporary physics laboratories.
After everything was ready, Su An said: "Please carefully observe the red area marked on the board."
As he spoke, half of Yi Yuanzi's board, which was to be tested, turned red.
Subsequently, Zyra delivered the voucher and the experiment officially began.
Han Kongwen watched quietly...
The half black and half red Yi Yuanzi board rotates slowly while rising in height.
