The old professor breathed a sigh of relief and explained to everyone in the simplest language he could use:
"According to the testimony of a certain leopard man here, the ancient [God-human race] came to the new universe from the [old universe] through the time of [annihilation].
And I have been thinking that the flow of time in the [old universe] and the [new universe] is actually the same, right? All time in the universe is just compressed and restored to its original point, and then a new cycle begins.
Therefore, the entire universe is actually circulating the same period of history infinitely. What happened in the last [reincarnation] will happen again in this [reincarnation]. This is the so-called [Eternal Regression Theory]."
"Yes, it sounds like it's true." Albert shrugged disapprovingly and sneered: "Come to think of it, these conversations I have with you now are actually meaningless? The same conversation has been repeated in countless reincarnations.
It has happened countless times that we [living] are just repeating the same thing over and over again, like a movie played over and over again?”
"Perhaps." Professor Paul's face darkened: "If that's true, then the meaning of life is indeed insignificant. Everything you think [will happen] is actually what [happened]. How boring and how hopeless.
life.
We may be just pawns in this torrent of history. We think we have the freedom to choose, but we don’t know that our choices have already been included in history. All we do is repeat the choices of the past.
.Since life is like this, is there any point in continuing to live?"
Hearing this, Bedivere couldn't bear it anymore. He coughed dryly and interrupted Professor Paul's long speech: "I have seen a dark universe--it should be a parallel world of our universe. That is already
A world where no more events [happen] and no life exists. Is this kind of universe running a [predetermined] history as you said?"
Professor Paul asked wittily: "And that universe has been destroyed, or is on the verge of destruction, am I right?"
Being told this, Bedivere was speechless.
Professor Paul touched his chin and made a serious thinking expression: "I don't know much about parallel worlds. But since it is a destroyed universe, it has deviated from [the right track of history], so we can only
Waiting for the rebirth of the universe in silence. That kind of world is as if it never existed, a parallel world where [failed] alive [lost].
The same goes for our world. Every time a [new event] appears that is different from the [established historical event], a new parallel world will be derived. As a result, this new world must be unstable.
Easy to collapse.
Because it has embarked on a completely different path from [established history], it is equivalent to groping for a new road where there is no road. This kind of exploration will usually end in failure, so let [Nirvana] come early.
---Yes, that should be said.
Because there are parallel worlds, everyone should have the freedom to choose.
But some choices are trivial and will not change history no matter what you choose;
For a person, some choices are related to life, and if you choose the wrong one, you will die;
The same is true for the world."
It sounded mysterious, but Bedivere vaguely felt that he could understand it.
The world they are currently in may also be a parallel world that is slightly different from [established history], and this world was "created" by Bedivere seven years ago.
They are groping for a new path in a roadless world. Only God knows whether they will survive or be ruthlessly destroyed.
Thinking of this, the werewolf couldn't help but feel relieved.
The so-called [eternal return] and the so-called [reincarnation] actually have multiple explanations because of the existence of parallel universes.
People in this world may still be replaying everything they have done over and over again. What should happen will definitely happen.
However, the existence of parallel worlds provides variability for historical events that "must happen". Depending on people's choices, something that "must" happen may happen in different forms and produce completely different results.
Based on a certain historical event, countless parallel worlds can be born. Most of these worlds will lead to destruction, but some of them will lead to survival, hope, and redemption.
Therefore, people still have the right to choose their path, no matter where it leads.
------Hope, there will always be.
While everyone was meditating and reflecting, and fell into silence, there was some kind of gloomy sound rising from the bottom of the spaceship (raft).
The elf girl frowned.
"I don't understand." She didn't hesitate, and immediately asked in a low voice: "Aren't we moving on land? Why does something seem to be following us underground, but the sound of its movement is so quiet and scary at all?
Like burrowing into the ground?"
"What are you talking about, meow?" The tiger half understood and scratched his head with his cat's paw.
"Anyway, the fact that we are being followed should be certain, right?" Solar took out a small wooden stick from the firewood and threw it towards the side of the boat.
Boom!
When the wooden stick fell on the "ground", the sound it made was not the crisp sound of hitting a hard object, but the deep sound of falling into the water.
What's more, the wooden stick penetrated the "ground" and sank into the "underground". It only surfaced half a second later and lay quietly on the ground.
It's almost like a piece of wood falling on the water.
Everyone looked at each other, the current situation was indeed a bit strange. They drew their weapons and were on guard with all their attention.
Rumble, rumble, rumble. The vibrations coming from the ground are getting louder and louder. Something is about to emerge from the "ground".
Bedivere and Paramedis exchanged glances, grabbed the photon reflector, and were ready to make emergency evades at any time.
"Here we come, three yards away, seven o'clock direction!" Chanel exclaimed.
The werewolf and leopard warriors twisted the photon reflector at the same time, charging a strong current into the mirror, creating a huge propulsion force in an instant! The spacecraft slipped out in the opposite direction of the attack, taking one step before a huge thing appeared on the "ground".
Dodged!
Pound!! That thing jumped out from the "ground" crazily, causing huge waves!
That's a... mussel?
The giant Nile clam has two huge disk-like shells, with a cold light as sharp as a knife on its edges. Countless dark red tentacles protruding from the countless barnacles on its shell are frantically moving at the moment.
Sweep toward the ship!
"Bedivere!" cried Palamedes.
Without any further response, Bedivere just silently operated the photon reflector, cooperating with the actions of the leopard warriors. The ship deftly darted left and right, carefully avoiding most of the tentacles.
There were several tentacles that could not be avoided, and they were about to hit the ship. However, Zeffel raised his shield and stepped forward to block, slowing down the tentacles' attack slightly.
Solar, who was sitting on the same side of the boat, took advantage of the situation and took advantage of the situation. The bright lizard-tooth scimitar in his hand cut off the monster's tentacles without any hindrance!
The tiger also drew his bow and shot an arrow, which was the kind of thunder arrow with a golden crystal arrowhead. But he soon regretted it. They were not in a thundercloud area at the moment, and the thunder arrow could not attract the thunder.
Kill this monster!
"You stupid cat, all your efforts are in vain!" Chanel also shot an arrow, this time she used a high-energy burning arrow, and the fiercely burning crimson arrow pierced the monster's shell!
But she soon regretted it! The giant clam dived into the "ground" and the arrow immediately went out.
"It's hard, unbelievable." Chanel looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help but feel confused: "Is it subspace magic? How did it sneak into the ground?!"
"No," Palamedes held the reflector steady with one hand and stood up with a sneer: "That's really not the ground, that's the water."
Bedivere also had the same idea in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud due to lack of evidence.
Their boat was not traveling on the shore of the lake, but on the surface of the lake!
There was some kind of illusion that distorted everyone's vision, making them think that the boat was sailing on the river bank! In fact, there was already a body of water under their feet, and it was a body of water full of murderous intent!
Hum! Palamedes groaned, he did not intend to put the ship in a passive position to be attacked. Instead of escaping, he would rather take the initiative to attack---and he had a chance! The big cat accumulated strength in the palm of his hand and condensed it.
A large amount of thunder and lightning power. He pushed out a palm, and the powerful electricity immediately turned into an arc of light, penetrating the water surface and shooting straight into the hidden creature under the water!
Yes, if there is no target, lightning can only be fired blindly and has no lethality at all. But Palamedes doesn't care about this at all: because the electric shock will definitely hit!
The thunder arrow Albert shot before was the target! It was embedded in the monster. Although it could not attract the thunder to kill the enemy, it became a means to assist Paramedis in attacking!
Boom! Powerful thunder and lightning penetrated the water directly. The river clam monster did not dive very deep. When the thunder and lightning drew a small arc and came into contact with the monster, it really received a heavy electric shock!
Shocked by the power of thunder and lightning, the whole body twitched, and the clam monster emerged from the water! Countless tentacles on its shell were waving wildly, exuding a burning smell!
"Ugh." The tiger made a disgusting expression: "What should we do now? Should we concentrate our firepower to get rid of it? --- This guy is covered in a hard shell?"
"There will be a way, don't worry." The Leopard Man warrior began to "transform", and the golden "armor" composed of gleaming stone crystal appeared on his body, while the light stone crystal formed a small "backpack", which emitted a light light behind the leopard man.
Blue shimmer.
"Palami?!" Bedivere shouted dissatisfied and uneasily.
"You know, Bedivere." The Leopard Warrior gave up the helm and held the spear in both hands: "Under the premise that that guy is using illusions on us, no matter how we escape, we will only lose our way and keep spinning on the lake.
.Only by solving it can we truly move forward."
"But, the ship---"
The leopard man soldier smiled calmly: "I am responsible for diverting it. Don't worry, I will make him too busy to attack the ship."
Palamedes jumped from the ship!
Of course, the big cat did not sink into the water. After a night's rest, he was full of energy and had already been able to generate enough electricity to sustain the battle.
The lightstone crystal on his back slowly absorbs electricity to generate anti-gravity. Thanks to this, Paramedes can "stand" directly on the lake!
"You guys take care of yourselves.---I'm about to start!" The big cat stepped on the water, rushed up with a gun, and started a fierce battle with the Nile Giant Clam!
