Chapter 2829 The Battle of Self-Deception! (New Year's First Update!)

Accompanied by the murmur that was almost sleepy, the mist lingering on Yun Haixin's face in "Black Dream" slowly melted and flowed down, like two turbid streams, criss-crossing on his trembling face.

And his eyes, which had always been hidden behind the black mist, were finally fully visible in front of Li Yao and Chu Zhixiao.

Neither Li Yao nor Chu Zhixiao had ever seen such clear, affectionate, and painful eyes.

Even just thinking about how much pain and torture the soul behind these eyes is enduring makes them sour.

"The only reason I have been struggling in hell to this day is that my family can live the rest of my life in a dream."

Yun Haixin let the tears of the black mist melt freely, and said, "But now, the Eternal Light has become like this, and the dreams of the family are all shattered. They may think of everything in the past, or they may become vicious beasts. Maybe they will be killed by the guards when they hit the bridge, or they will be blown to pieces in the self-destruct of the Eternal Light.

"Hehe, hehehehe, in this case, what is the point of everything I do? Why should I continue to bow my knees to the Supreme Master and beg for mercy like a dog?"

He walked towards Chu Zhixiao step by step.

"Calm down, Kuromen."

Chu Zhixiao was extremely unwilling to be an enemy of this difficult teammate, so he hurriedly said, "You don't think we caused all this, do you?"

"Don't worry, I won't take my anger out on others. I know all this has nothing to do with you, and you are just a poor tool."

Yun Haixin's footsteps paused slightly, and the sorrow in his eyes became more and more intense, "It's just that the puppet king promised me that as long as I obey his order, I will help him complete a small task - that is, to delay you and help him Break down the barriers of your mind and fully open your brain, and he will save my wife and children, and let them continue to live ignorant and happy lives."

"How can it be?"

Chu Zhixiao screamed, "How dare you believe such a clumsy lie? The Eternal Light has already collapsed, and even Master Zhishan may not be able to duplicate a ship at such a critical juncture with the resources of the entire Holy League." The new "Eternal Light" comes out, relying on the puppet king, the public enemy of the universe who is in constant fear, how can he guarantee the safety of your wife and children and give them illusory happiness? Impossible, he can never control' Eternal Light' is such a large-scale experimental ship, and there are not enough resources to maintain an illusory paradise! Such a simple truth, you can't think of it, wake up, Black Dream!"

Yun Haixin smiled, bared his teeth, and laughed silently, even uglier than the howling and crying ghosts of Jiuyou Huangquan.

"Yes, of course I can think of such a simple truth, but the puppet king still convinced me."

Yun Haixin pointed to her temple, "The puppet king pointed out the blind spot in our thinking - who said that a fantasy paradise like 'Eternal Light' must be built in the real world? Since it is a fantasy paradise, it is built directly in the dream world. Wouldn't it be better?

"Yes, compared to the resources of the entire Holy League controlled by the Supreme Master, the resources that the Puppet King can control are naturally very few. It is absolutely impossible to maintain such a huge 'Eternal Light Project', but only hijack a small and medium-sized starship , Carrying enough resources to last for hundreds of years, wandering in the depths of the star sea, where no one can find it, is it still possible?

"The Star Sea is vast. Finding a mere starship is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. In the past, the True Human Empire spent a lot of troops searching for the last starship of the Star Sea Republic, the Firefly, for thousands of years, but it was also in vain.

"And this starship controlled by the puppet king is highly automated and does not require many crew members to operate it. It carries a batch of special cargo-human brains."

"Human... brain?"

Chu Zhixiao couldn't believe it, "What do you mean?"

"It's very simple. The puppet king can't save the flesh and blood of my wife and children. These things consume too many resources and are unnecessary."

Yun Haixin explained, "But at least he can save the brains of my wife and children, place their brains in a special biochemical chamber, inject high-energy nutrient solution and nerve interaction liquid, and then connect various crystal lines to give different Stimulation, and thus, the souls of my wife and children can be 'uploaded' to a certain virtual world, which the puppet king calls the 'spirit world'.

"The spirit world is like a colorful, beautiful, and extravagant virtual game. It doesn't consume much resources at all. As long as it consumes a little bit of computing power, it is enough to maintain their happiness. No. 'Ten times more, incomparable happiness!

"The puppet king can even scan my brain structure, use computing power to simulate the characteristics of my soul, and recreate a me in the virtual world, so that this virtual me and my wife meet and fall in love by chance, and the family lives happily together .”

"this--"

Chu Zhixiao's face was pale, and he was speechless for a long time.

Li Yao also felt his scalp tingling. The puppet king——Lu Qingchen really didn't change his mind, and he wanted to realize his "Ethereal Plan" wherever he went!

"Why make such a fuss, you should know that this 'brain in a vat' technology is quite mature in the Holy League."

Yun Haixin said lightly, "In the 'Magic Boy Project' where you were born, a large number of demon children lost their bodies, leaving only their brains still alive, but they were enduring endless pain, while my wife and son Women will enjoy eternal happiness, that's all.

"Be more open-minded. Today, when spiritual prosthetics and spiritual prostheses are popular, many seriously injured people will replace their body organs. Some severely disabled patients have lost 99% of their flesh and blood, leaving only Isn't it normal for the brain to be carried by the spiritual prosthesis?"

"But even if a person loses 99% of his flesh and blood, even loses his brain, becomes a ghost cultivator, and needs to rely on a spiritual prosthetic body to travel through the world, at least everything he feels is true!"

Chu Zhixiao gritted his teeth and said, "But you want to turn your wife and children into a 'brain in a vat' and live in a false world forever. Do you really have a clear head and know what you are doing?"

"Hehe, haha, hahahahahahahahaha!"

Yun Hai was stunned for a long time, then suddenly hugged his stomach and laughed crazily.

Black tears slid from the corners of his mouth and dripped to his feet, like black blood drops.

"What is real, what is false, and where is the boundary between true and false?"

Yun Haixin raised her head amid wild laughter, her eyes were so clear that neither Li Yao nor Chu Zhixiao could look directly at them, "The Eternal Light is made of matter and exists real, but the lives of the people on the Eternal Light are 'real' ?

"The holy alliance is also real, but the lies of the supreme master can really convince everyone that everything that has been brainwashed is the 'truth' you pursue and defend?

"Oh, my hometown, the Real Human Empire is real, but what's the point of that kind of jungle, intrigue, bloody and cruel reality? Who wants to let their family and future generations live in such a 'truth' forever among?

"If there are only two roads to go, the illusory heaven and the real hell, major, you tell me which way to choose, I think, it's not difficult, is it?

"Or, you teach me, how can I save my wife and children if I don't listen to the bewitching of the puppet king? Don't you go to the feet of the Supreme Master again and beg for mercy, begging them to arrange my wife and children in another place?" An experimental ship? Regardless of whether the Holy League has a second "Eternal Light", even if there is, isn't that a false dream, and what is the difference from the Puppet King's brain in a vat?

"How to choose, how to walk, how to save, you teach me, you teach me!"

"But--"

Chu Zhixiao's eyes and mind were a little confused, and he said reluctantly, "Don't deceive yourself anymore, the puppet king is just using you, his purpose is to make the two of us fight each other, we will lose both, and our spiritual defenses will be broken at the same time. Let his power easily invade our brains and deeply analyze our souls!

"When he really achieves his goal, who can guarantee that he will keep his promise? Even if he wants to keep his promise, how long can your wife and children stay alone on a starship in the form of a brain in a vat? ?”

"The concept of time in the virtual world is different from that in the real world. In their perception, it shouldn't be a problem to live comfortably and comfortably for hundreds of years? I can't worry about things after hundreds of years. Now, maybe the virtual world will collapse in an instant, and they will die without pain, turning into a wisp of dust among the stars, and reunite with me who has long been wiped out in another dimension—for a husband and father, Is there a better arrangement than this?"

A stiff smile appeared on Yun Haixin's face, "As for self-deception, that's right, I really can't guarantee that the puppet king can keep his promise, saying that I'm self-deception is fine.

"But what about you, Major?

"I'm deceiving myself, what are you?

"What's the difference between the puppet king's lies and the supreme master's lies? I can't guarantee that the puppet king will keep his promise, but you can guarantee that the supreme master is telling the truth, those damned ones" Will the gods' really wake up and lead us to eternal light?

"Fart, it's all fucking nonsense, the gods and Buddhas of the gods have died long ago, now, only me is left in this vast and boundless universe, only us who are fragile, confused, blind, bloodthirsty, crazy, greedy human beings!

"You are actually very clear, as clear as I am, that everything covering us is a lie, but, in the endless hell, as long as there is a glimmer of light in front of you, no matter how far away, how vague, or even knowing it is false, it is true. One's own illusions must be pursued, seized, and guarded desperately. This is human beings, and this is our sad human beings!

"In the final analysis, whether it is Yuanying or Huashen, we are all the same, we are all the same, we are all small people, small characters, small tricks, being deceived and manipulated is our destiny, not so ,so what?

"Even if I'm deceiving myself, don't expose me, let me keep a glimmer of hope—as long as I can do everything to break your spiritual barrier, so that the puppet king can drive straight in and reach the deepest part of your soul, my family can Obtaining three to five hundred years of happiness, this is... the last thing I can do for them!"

Yun Haixin's eyes were once again shrouded in black mist.

In other words, with his pupils as the center of the circle, his whole body turned into a cloud of black mist, covering Chu Zhixiao's head and brain!
