00756 Azure New Testament Chapter Seven: Infinite (Part 1)
The Center Curtain is a beautiful vision that provides an inclusive, diverse and nearly infinite world and possibilities.
Under its protection, human beings can remain silent in the universe and grow quietly without being disturbed by external enemies...
But in the beginning, the concept of center was not so easy to establish!
Just like the decision to escape from the earth, the thirteen Quantum Origin ships rushed to thirteen different galaxies, taking away only the human race, not a specific individual.
Therefore, following the constraints of the law of infinite margins, the central curtain has established the basic principle of human self-centeredness from the beginning! This is also an eternal and unbreakable bottom line and a shackles...
——"The Azure New Testament Chapter 7: The End of Infinity"
…
Does the ending have to involve you fighting to the death?
Lin Sen sat alone on the beach looking at the boundless sea and fell into deep thought.
His wounds no longer bleed, and his strong body has given him almost eternal life.
But Linsen didn't feel even the slightest bit of relief, because the Quantum Origin sank, and he was thrown to the mainland before it sank, becoming the last survivor.
After sitting for a while, the sun rose in the east and the coldness disappeared.
Lin Sen took a deep breath, stood up and started walking along the coastline.
At this moment, he has no purpose, no direction, and is at a loss in his heart, but he knows that he still needs to live, live... and become the Prometheus who rekindles the hope of mankind!
…
The time spent living alone went quickly. When Lin Sen returned to the Bay Cave again, the simple date watch on his arm had already been engraved with five straight characters, and each stroke represented not a day, but a month.
He sat down on the small stone bench outside the cave and started shaving with a stone knife like a primitive man. In the first few years of his exploration, Lin Sen lived a life of a complete hermit.
But after today, Lin Sen knew that his escape had come to an end, because he had found the missing fire, and now he was going to set sail and do what he should do.
Pushing the handmade wooden sailboat into the sea, Lin Sen looked back at this rich continent. His heart was full of hope and yearning. He had almost seen magnificent cities standing in the distance, and the fireworks of human civilization could be seen.
Rekindled.
…
But... on the ninth day of the voyage, Lin Sen lost his way.
Nature blocked the sun and stars with obvious malice, which made Lin Sen completely lose his direction.
On the fifteenth day, the waves finally calmed down. After waking up, Lin Sen found that the world seemed to have stopped. There were no ripples on the windless sea, the stars were dazzling, and the unknown aquatic creatures in the sea under his feet emitted
Eye-catching blue and white, they cruise in groups and rotate clockwise around Lin Sen's sailboat.
This strange sight made Lin Sen curious about what existed under the sailboat and what made these native fish behave in such strange ways.
So he decided to take a desperate risk and dive into the water to see what happened.
Lin Sen lowered the sail and jumped into the sea.
As a result, after diving less than ten meters, all the light in front of me disappeared, and what was left was boundless darkness.
The all-devouring darkness made Lin Sen's hair stand on end. He thought he had encountered some kind of ancient monster, so he immediately started to swim upstream.
But the darkness spread far faster than Lin Sen could escape.
He watched helplessly as the shadow of the sailboat disappeared from his sight, and then his body gradually lost consciousness as if it was stuck in a quagmire.
…
When he woke up again, Lin Sen found that he was still on the sailboat, with the sea breeze blowing. Lin Sen, who sat up, began to doubt everything he had experienced last night.
Was that all a nightmare?
But why is it so true...
But no matter what, Lin Sen felt a little scared, thinking that if last night was not a nightmare, but something that really happened, then he might have been buried in the belly of the fish and turned into an insignificant fragment in the depths of the ocean.
After waking up, Lin Sen suddenly felt a splitting headache. He rubbed his temples, thinking that he might be too tired, but then there was a huge buzzing in his ears, and the sea breeze became manic in an instant.
Raising his head suddenly, Lin Sen's eyes widened instantly!
Because he saw... an interstellar battleship that looked like a water droplet broke through the clouds, and then fell almost straight into the sea not far away like a bird with broken wings!
Lin Sen was horrified when he saw this scene. His first reaction was not to stay in a daze, but to desperately start to escape into the distance.
Fortunately, the sea breeze was turbulent and the sails were raised, which greatly helped Lin Sen, allowing him to escape to a safe place before the huge waves hit.
…
But when everything calmed down again, and Lin Sen, who was in a panic, looked at the small fire in the sky flying into the distance, he felt confused and frightened in his heart.
What exactly is going on?
Why am I here?
Would I have seen the Quantum Origin crash with my own eyes?
Have I traveled through time?
It's impossible... time can be compressed and accelerated... but it cannot be reversed... Lin Sen has long known this.
But the fact is that after that nightmare, Lin Sen just watched the crash and sinking of the Quantum Origin as a bystander...
Infinite doubts filled his mind, but years of training made Lin Sen choose to find the fire as soon as possible instead of falling into eternal confusion for a nearly unsolvable puzzle.
…
After fifteen days of sailing, the sea was surprisingly quiet and the wind was beautiful. Lin Sen arrived at an island.
And successfully found the lost fire there!
But Lin Sen, who came to the fire with surprise, was shocked to find that the fire had been opened, and all the embryonic bodies of human ancestor-like genes contained inside had disappeared.
who is it?
Could it be said that there are other civilizations on this planet?
This is undoubtedly the worst outcome for Lin Sen, who is weak at the moment, because if an unknown civilization has the ability to copy human DNA sequences and turn on fire, then it must be an existence beyond the level of human civilization, and Lin Sen
Sen... is incapable of resisting.
Shocked, Lin Sen immediately began to arm himself and search for anything useful to him as much as possible.
About an hour later, Lin Sen, who had been confused in this strange world, started the first countdown of the new era and named this moment as the first year of mankind, with the time being 00 hours, 00 minutes and 01 seconds.
After arming himself with the superstring unit, Lin Sen first conducted an all-round search of the island. Although he knew that doing so might expose himself more easily, Lin Sen knew better that he could not allow himself to be passively peeped at all times.
.
But after a day of searching, Lin Sen, who turned the island upside down, found nothing.
The internal information files of Tinder were also blank. This result was like a nightmare for Lin Sen.
Because this fire may be Lin Sen's last hope, and also the last hope of mankind!
If those Holy Grails of life that preserve the genetic embryonic bodies of human ancestors really disappear, then the value of Lin Sen's existence will also disappear, and the origin of human beings on this planet will come to an end.
Realizing that this might be the shortest and saddest civilization on the planet, Lin Sen was confused for the next year. Although he occasionally woke up and began to try to find a way, he was ultimately unable to compete with the "power of the individual life itself".
Uniqueness and non-replicability have led to confusion again.
…
Time flies so fast, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Sen has returned to a primitive life. However, because he has been unable to communicate with others for a long time, it is now difficult for Lin Sen to say his own name.
However, Lin Sen did not die because of this. His body was strong and his spirit gradually recovered due to the solace of the information recorded inside the fire.
The time now is January 3rd of the first year of the Yuan calendar.
Like Robinson Crusoe, Lin Sen found himself a smart pet, a native bird with a seven-color tail, pure white wings and four eyes.
Calling it a bird is a bit too terrestrial, because this thing cannot fly, and its wings are only used to attract the attention of females.
And Lin Sen is not a biologist, so there is no need to pursue so many details.
Therefore, Lin Sen regarded it as a parrot on the earth, and used the superstring structure in the fire to improve the genes of his pet, taught it to "speak", and named it "Rainbow Milk Candy", or "Milk Candy" for short.
sugar"!
…
With the company of "Toffee", Lin Sen finally got out of the haze of being the last survivor.
He began to use the power of superstring structures step by step to create eyes to explore the planet. In this way, on May 1st of the first year of the Lunar Calendar, mankind's first global "hive" on Gaia was born.
Although Lin Sen has not yet been able to send the reconnaissance worker bees into the orbit of the Gaia star satellite, through continuous "reproduction and evolution", by September 15th of the first year of the Lunar calendar, Gaia star has been surveyed all over the world.
Worker bees are covered.
Of course, it will still take about ten years to complete the global survey of Gaia.
During this period, Lin Sen began to build his first Explorer-class individual reconnaissance vehicle, which was also the structural limit that a single fire can withstand.
When this vehicle is completed, the Fire Type will completely fall into dormancy, and the superstring unit will no longer be able to provide support to Lin Sen.
Fortunately, the superstring unit itself is not a one-time non-replicable consumable. As long as the basic technology is still there, Lin Sen can try to use the original resources on Gaia as a replacement for backup.
…
On April 9, the third year of the Yuanli calendar, Lin Sen left the island and headed towards the first ancient civilization ruins marked on the mark. He wanted to retrieve the "Holy Grail of Life" that carries the continuation of mankind, and the prerequisite was to understand this first
The planet's past, and the secrets of possible enemies.
…
The fingers left Lin Sen's eyebrows.
An Youren looked at Lin Sen quietly. Seeing that he looked shocked and needed some time to calm down, he lowered his head again and started tasting tea.
As for Lin Sen...
A few seconds ago, he was really feeling the excitement and longing for getting on the Explorer, but the moment the mask fell, everything came to an abrupt end.
All those experiences were withdrawn from his mind.
In a daze, Lin Sen realized that all that was not the past that actually happened to him, but belonged to the Anyou people! It belonged to the last survivor next to him who came to Gaia with the hope of all mankind.
.
…
"What happened next? What happened next! Who took away the 'Holy Grail of Life?' And how did you return to the Quantum Origin? And... many of the records I saw were from Life
The birth began, before you hatched the first human embryo on this planet, did you..." Lin Sen was very excited. He felt that there were still many, many questions waiting to be answered deeper and further, but
…
"Shh!" An Youren made a silent gesture. He looked at Lin Sen and said with a smile: "Those things can be used as casual chats after dinner. If there is a chance, I can tell you slowly, and even let you go to it again as me.
Experience it once, but now...it's time for you to go."
What?!
Lin Sen was startled. He didn't expect that Anyou would suddenly issue an eviction order.
And Lin Sen's first reaction was definitely not to obey, because he had already sacrificed so much to come here and find out the truth! Everyone's sacrifices and dedication were condensed here. How could he just bring him this way?
How about leaving with so many doubts?
So Lin Sen said: "But, what exactly is the central curtain? How long will it exist? Are we going to be imprisoned in it forever?!"
An Youren put down his cup, looked at Yuanye and said: "The central curtain is a beautiful vision. It provides an inclusive, diverse and nearly infinite world and possibilities, so...at its root, it is not an abominable evil.
, and shackles that are too heavy to bear... at least not now, and in the future... and probably never will be."
"What about us? Do you know how terrifying the destruction will be when we realize that all of this is an infinite loop under the control of the central curtain?" Lin Sen tried his best to keep a calm and gentle tone.
An Youren gently took Lin Sen's hand, and his hand was warm and cool.
Although they were both men, surprisingly, the moment Lin Sen's hand was held, he felt as safe as a child holding his father's hand.
Of course, this is understandable... After all, An You is indeed the father of Lin Sen, and even everyone else... Compared with everything he has experienced and endured, perhaps everything is not worth mentioning.
"Don't try to resist it, or even hate it! Because it is just an umbrella. It can cover you from the heavy rain, and of course it will also cover the sun... So what really brings this infinity is your persistence in the truth itself, and
You may not be aware of these misunderstandings about Meili, but I hope you can calm down and not have so many burdens, because everything will start again, and this time, I will give you the right to choose.
, and everyone else!" An Youren said and looked at Lin Sen quietly.
The profound meaning was intriguing, but Lin Sen had already vaguely sensed An Youren's intentions.
Although he did not receive any reminder from An Youren, the uneasiness in Lin Sen's heart was amplifying, and many figures were dim.
So... Lin Sen asked: "What does starting over... mean?"
An Youren smiled. He let go of Lin Sen's hand, then stood up. After a while, the world constructed by the superstring unit instantly turned into nothingness, and the world returned to an empty and boundless state.
When Lin Sen stood up, he saw a point in the distance gradually enlarging.
When the point began to take on a specific outline and shape, Lin Sen realized that it was not that it was enlarging, but that he was approaching it at high speed.
After a while, Lin Sen finally saw the thing clearly.
An You said: "This is the core of the central curtain, the starting point and the end point of everything."
Lin Sen looked over in shock, but only saw a golden sphere, a sphere filled with multiple colors that was vaguely rotating, shrinking, and expanding.
The first feeling it gave Lin Sen was disappointment!
But when Lin Sen really saw what it looked like, his disappointment disappeared instantly... because the dense colors contained an infinite possibility and world.
There, Lin Sen saw the possibility of Chen Guang surviving, and even the scene of his marriage to Yang Yurong...
Of course... Looking at it from another angle, Lin Sen discovered that a chaotic dynasty had been established, and the supreme monarch was actually...!
Taking another step, Lin Sen put aside his shock and saw himself working underground, with his dead father and paralyzed sister beside him. They were talking and laughing, and it seemed that they had never been defeated by suffering...
…
Continuing to move forward, Lin Sen's pupils dilated again, because... he saw Lemidia fighting alone with hundreds of people in the fire all over the sky, and behind her, the dying Dongfang Ruo was seriously injured.
...That is the continuation of the experience in the Darkest Realm...
Finally, after arriving behind the sphere, Lin Sen finally began to believe that this was not an illusion of some simulated signal!
Because there, Lin Sen saw a possibility that he had decided to let go of but failed to let go in the end... He stared blankly at himself as he turned to leave, looking at the lost background.
When Lin Sen opened his eyes again, he found that the sphere had disappeared, replaced by a pale ancient tree under the vast starry sky.
There is silver lake water under your feet, and in front of you is an ancient tree with white petals floating in the air. In the center of the ancient tree, a man and a woman are leaning against each other. There is no gap on the top of their heads, but the radiating branches still extend to the crown of the tree, ultimately forming a pattern that resembles the pattern of the brain.
A similar look.
An Youren stood under the tree with his back to Lin Sen and said, "Have you made up your mind? Should you keep everything you have and return to reality, or should you erase these memories and make it a possibility?"
"Is there any difference?" Lin Sen asked.
"Yes, if you choose the former, then I will send you back to the people you are familiar with. You will still have to fight against the disaster starting from Meili, and fight against the almost impossible to defeat the apostles of spiritual thought."
Lin Sen frowned and asked again: "What about the latter?"
"The latter... In the latter, you may become a little boy again, a child who knows nothing and remembers nothing. Your life trajectory may encounter all the same things as you remember now, but it may also be completely different.
Different singularities, but no one can tell clearly, including me."
Lin Sen understood, and then he smiled. He had already thought about it and said, "What if I don't choose either?"
