Overturned Tower

Chapter 393 The Future Guided by Prophecy

——What the monkey-faced eagle pursues is such a twisted way of survival.

Although his life was threatened, Russell felt a sense of pity.

Staring at the girl with his hazy yellow eyes, Russell read the other person's essence.

Like a moth's practice sucking on fresh flower petals.

"This is probably a thought of heaven and a thought of hell..."

Russell murmured quietly.

If the monkey-faced eagle did not choose to "copy and separate" himself after uploading his mind, he could still maintain his personality and humanity.

Even under the pressure of Chairman Sai Lun, he lost his material body, projected his consciousness into the Internet, and turned into an electronic ghost wandering in the data world... He could still maintain the self-esteem that belongs to human beings.

He doesn't even need to do anything - even if he comes directly into Naraku-7's body and merges the two wills into one, it won't fundamentally affect or change anything.

But what he used to fuse with Naraku-7 was not "all" of himself. He took away Naraku-7's entire personality, but what he paid for was just a copy of himself...

From that moment on, he changed from a living human being to an infinitely proliferating thought virus.

It was also from that time that he became the "Twilight Egg".

At present, she is still essentially a monkey-faced eagle, not the "twilight" she claims to be. Although there is a copy used to merge with Naraku-7 and come to him. But it is like a puppet in the hands of the "monkey-faced hawk program"...or, in other words, the "monkey-faced hawk virus".

The essence of this spreading virus is still just a monkey-faced eagle.

True dusk does not hatch. Now it is just an egg that has not even developed an embryo yet.

When she really made up her mind and took the final step - splitting herself into countless parts and implanting them into the brains of everyone in the world.

Submissive, rebellious, aware, unaware...Many mixed and entangled spirits gathered in an instant. How much of the personality belonging to the "monkey-faced eagle" can be left after being washed away?

At that point, her existence will be nothing more than a conduit—a tool used to connect human consciousness around the world. The "pure monkey-faced eagle" stored in the network cannot control the overall situation at all.

All human will, consciousness, and subconscious will be completely condensed by her, becoming a twisted and invisible collection.

——Become the so-called "god of the crowd".

The path she pursues will inevitably lead to the cliff of "losing herself" at the end. If she didn't take the last step, all her previous efforts would be in vain; but if she took this step, everything she had so far would be destroyed by her own hands.

"You are not an egg of dusk at all..."

Russell sighed softly: "You are just the egg shell that breeds new life."

"If that's my destiny, I accept it."

The girl replied flatly.

She could feel that Russell read her essence.

She is also vaguely aware of what her future holds.

"In the final analysis, if the so-called 'twilight' is really the embodiment of the end of the world, then it cannot have a real personality. A person's time is short and limited, and the world he comes into contact with is only within human society. A fragment of it. And human civilization is so small compared to this world. The 'personality' that can be used to carry human rationality looks like an insignificant container in the twilight of the end of the world."

The girl stared at Russell, as if staring at the moon at night.

There was a certain consciousness in her words: "If that moment comes... I will not escape.

"This world is dirty and rotten. It's really time for destruction.

"I think you should also know - the resources of this world are about to be exhausted."

Hearing this, Ringo next to Russell suddenly widened his eyes.

She cast an incredulous look at Russell, hoping he would yell at him.

But Russell just said nothing and continued to stare at the girl.

Seeing her reaction, the girl in the wheelchair couldn't help laughing. She clapped her hands and raised her voice and let out a clear laugh: "Look at her, look at her! She is so shocked, and there is so much fear in her eyes. Fear.

"Just like her reaction, other people's reaction will only be greater than hers. Once this news is announced or leaked, it will surely trigger an unprecedented panic that will sweep the world... This time will usher in the largest and most important event in human history. The last war. Not to fight for anything, but to consume the lives of the 'eliminated ones'.

"The last war has completely destroyed the land. Of the seven empty islands we can use, how many will be left after the war? In any case, humans cannot allow non-renewable resources to reappear. Even if humans The number is reduced to one seventh, one twentieth, one hundredth... It will also usher in an irreversible end.

"It's like a person who has been declared by the doctor to have an incurable disease and will usher in a chronic death in pain and exhaustion. In this case, it would be better to let it die more happily - to remove its uncorrupted internal organs Give it to me. In this way, its death can be turned into nourishment for my new life."

Hearing this, Ringo frowned in disgust.

She took a breath and held it in her mouth, but couldn't spit it out.

She seemed to want to refute the other party, but for a while she couldn't think of what to say.

Russell just closed his eyes and whispered:

"...How arrogant."

"What," the girl asked, "did I say something wrong?

"From a rational perspective, since the destruction of the world is irreversible, why can't it be used to support you and me?"

...It was the instructor who harmed her.

The moment he heard this, Russell suddenly realized this.

What the mentor told Monkey-Faced Eagle about the "secrets of the end of the world" actually destroyed his sanity and personality.

That is indeed knowledge that mortals cannot understand and bear...

When he learned that he had the "twilight possibility" and was the "incarnation of the end of the world", the monkey-faced eagle was already possessed.

From then on, the monkey-faced eagle no longer regarded other humans as its own kind, but regarded itself as a higher-level existence than humans, or even higher than human civilization.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that he has the determination and perseverance to abandon his body, because he knows that he will have a "future that will lead the end of the world" and will not die here. That's why he used himself as the only copy and the first experimental subject to transmit his consciousness to the online world without conducting experiments at all...

While this sounds very decisive, courageous, and straightforward, it is something no mature scientist would do. Because this is not in line with the scientific attitude that a researcher should have... Theory without verification and conjecture without experiment are just illusions. But he ignored this intentionally or unintentionally - because he thought he would not die there. This is not like a scientist with a professional education and rich research experience, but more like a self-taught private inventor.

Because of this, he would use a superior attitude to create copies of himself to infiltrate Naraku-7's mind, and turn the data storing his consciousness into viruses, and consciously distribute them to others. In order to spread himself, he even used Naraku-7's body as a consumable tool, bewitching innocent synthetics and turning them into his own puppets. Because subconsciously, he did not regard those people as his own kind, nor did he have the guilt to pollute other people's minds.

When he does something like this, he is indeed no longer human.

Russell suddenly thought of a paradox about prediction——

Just like what he had read before, the story of Harry Potter and Voldemort.

Voldemort knew that someone who could defeat him was about to be born, so he prepared to deal with the opponent in advance. But this just confirmed the next sentence of the prophecy, making Harry Potter "a powerful enemy marked by Voldemort, who will have power unknown to the Dark Lord." And this "unknown power" was born precisely because of his attack.

Those who heard the prophecy tried to interfere with the prophecy, but instead the prophecy hit the mark and was fulfilled.

It was precisely because the monkey-faced eagle believed in the existence of "twilight" and heard the prophecy about "twilight" that it eventually became the egg of dusk.

If he hadn't heard that prophecy then... what would it be like now?
