Chapter 833 Our Reason

Hundreds of thousands of years ago, human civilization was facing catastrophe due to the invasion of the sea of ​​dark matter.

At that time, there were only two roads before mankind.

Since it is impossible to surrender, there is no choice but to flee or fight to the end.

Many human beings left this galaxy and went to distant and dangerous places.

They may have found a new paradise, or they may have quietly disappeared into the vast universe.

For some reason, the vast majority of human beings could not leave their homeland, and eventually died together with the sea of ​​dark things under the leadership of that god.

Since he is a god, he must have calculated this sad ending in advance.

Then he must leave a kindling for human civilization, whether it is spiritual or biological.

In addition to the remains of ancient civilizations that have been discovered now, and the human beings that have regrown like weeds in the universe, he has made other preparations.

Before the final battle began, maybe even many years ago, he discovered a space somewhere at the edge of the galaxy.

That space is outside the real world, and the boundary is insurmountable. The laws of heaven and earth inside are somewhat special, and the flow of time is also different.

That god somehow put humans and many lives into that world, and even copied some life forms that were infiltrated by the sea of ​​dark matter.

The human beings who reappeared there have embarked on a path completely different from the real universe by virtue of the long time and unique rules.

That world can be said to be the last refuge of ancient civilizations, and it can also be said to be the catalyst for human evolution.

According to the judgment of that god, one day, the human beings there will be able to evolve and become real super soldiers, thereby breaking the boundary and returning to the real universe.

In that world, it's called ascension.

In this world, it's called regression.

...

...

Jing Jiu has no evidence, just an inference based on the information he has now, but this may be the historical truth.

If this is true, then many things in Chaotian Continent will lose their meaning.

For many people, this can be extremely emotionally overwhelming, overwhelming, and possibly even hopeless.

Because everything they believed in the past was false.

The Suzaku who lived forever in the raging fire, the immortal world after ascension, all the myths and legends are just...myths and legends.

The existence and the purpose of struggle of all sentient beings are all arranged.

Just like what Jing Jiu said: they are all just experiments.

But both he and General Lee were calm.

Ascenders are true immortals.

They have a strong will and spirit that ordinary people can't imagine.

"It can be said to be an experiment, or it can be said to be Gu refining." General Li said.

The Snow Country monster in Chaotian Continent is a replica of the Sea of ​​Dark Things monster.

Jing Jiu has always been somewhat familiar with the monsters in the Sea of ​​Dark Things, and this is the reason.

The intention of that god is very obvious, he hopes that the new humans can find a way to solve the sea of ​​dark things.

"Maybe they want us to get used to it before we come out."

Jing Jiu didn't want to say good things for that god, but this is indeed a possibility.

"God is dead, and it doesn't make sense to revisit the past now."

General Li looked at the warships outside the atmosphere, and said calmly: "This world calls us cocoon breakers. I like it very much, because we are new evolved humans, stronger and more advanced than the humans here. Then we have the responsibility to lead the entire human race forward."

Breaking out of a cocoon into a butterfly is used in many literary and artistic works to describe degeneration and evolution, and it is indeed more appropriate to use it on the ascended.

Jing Jiu felt that this statement was too naive,

Maybe the dead god really thought so, that's why he said in his last words that a new god would come.

But he didn't think the Ascended themselves should think so.

Any idea that he thinks he is a god is a little crazy in his opinion.

"The only responsibility I'm willing to take on is to be alive," he said.

This sentence sounds selfish, but it actually has a lot of meaning. General Li was silent for a long time, then reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

Jing Jiu didn't avoid his hand.

General Li rested his hand on his shoulder, looking into his eyes, his smile gradually disappeared.

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. After evolution, the new human beings must unswervingly assume their responsibilities, lead the human race forward, and bravely admit that we are the pioneers and beacons of human beings, but one thing must be clear, we can fight and die, but it has nothing to do with that god, it is our free will."

Jing Jiu understood his reasoning and thought it was very reasonable.

General Li withdrew his hand, turned and walked into the art gallery without looking at him again.

Jing Jiu stood there for a while, then walked back.

The black oil was still pouring into the blue swimming pool, and then slowly sank into the hole.

General Li stopped in front of a painting.

Most of that painting is blue, like that swimming pool, representing the sea.

There was some oil on the surface of the sea, and a bird floated in it, covered in oil, looking extremely weak, but also extremely ferocious. The painter's brushstrokes seem wild but extremely delicate. Judging from the scrambled feathers and the bird's posture, the bird can no longer flap its wings and fly away, and it is about to sink into the sea. The blue sea and sky are the world that humans like, and those black oil stains represent the sea of ​​dark matter, and that bird is a life soaked in dark matter, which may become a monster at any time.

"You should know about these black things." General Li said.

Jing Jiu understood this truth.

After waking up in this world, he has never been in contact with the sea of ​​dark matter. If he wants to do something next, he must of course understand the other party.

"The infiltrated life is also life, but the real key is to infiltrate their blackness. Those energies only know how to devour and infect. They have no emotion, no intelligence, and no need." General Li looked at the struggling bird in the painting, and said: "If you want to describe it with things in this world, viruses should be the most suitable object."

Jing Jiu said, "If something is not in the same world, there will be no special medicine."

General Li said: "So up to now, we can only use high-intensity light and heat energy to clear it. To solve the threat of the sea of ​​dark matter, the most important thing is to isolate those blacks. Just like the oil pollution on this sea, we need to use foam fences to stop them, so that they cannot pollute more sea surfaces and infuse more lives."

Jing Jiu said, "This is the Starlink Project."

General Li said: "The Starlink project has been going on for more than two hundred years, and it has not seen some results until the last twenty years, because this plan consumes too many resources, and the overall resource development capabilities of the Galaxy Alliance can hardly bear this pressure, but this plan must be carried out, so we must completely control the Galaxy Alliance."

If you want to save a civilization, you need to have the ability of the entire civilization level. First of all, you need to control this civilization in your hands.

It still makes sense.

This is the biggest difference between the ascended represented by General Li and the remains of ancient civilization represented by the priest lineage.

Both sides are arranged by the gods, and everyone has the same purpose, but how to do it and who should do it have been secretly arguing for many years.

It has to be said that whether it is in the Galaxy Alliance or the Chaotian Continent, whether it is the ancient civilization or the interstellar age, human beings are always so uninspired.

General Li said: "Starting from the Patriarch, as long as the ascenders who come here, she wants to control, because she thinks that she is the only successor of the gods and the ruler of human society, and we... are just the weapons that the god left her. So what do you think we can do?"

Jing Jiu recalled the scene by the hot spring and remained silent.

"You should have already guessed the origin of that priestess. She is just an artificial intelligence left by ancient civilizations. What qualifications does she have to lead the entire human race?"

"She has to obey our orders, it's a non-negotiable issue," Lee said.

"I think you are all naive." Jing Jiu's evaluation was very unkind.

In his opinion, there is no difference between the so-called Dao dispute between the Ascended and that person and the children's debate in the Qingtianjian.

He Zhan and that casual cultivator surnamed Jiang hurt each other, not because of the sun, but because of the superfluous emotions of intelligent beings.

"Would you like to be the sword in someone's hand?" General Li looked at him quietly with deep eyes.

Jing Jiu said, "No one can do it."

General Lee stared into his eyes and said, "You don't trust us."

Jing Jiu was not polite and hummed.

General Li said: "Because of those two assassinations? Or what happened in the Haiyin Nebula? You should know that these are routine inspections."

Jing Jiu said, "I don't accept it."

General Li turned around and walked towards the edge of the cliff outside the art museum, as if he had just brought Jing Jiu over to look at the painting, and asked casually, "You didn't finish what you said that day on the battleship... you saw me today, and then what?"

The snowstorm outside the cliff suddenly became a little violent.
