Chapter 496: Recognized Contradictions
——No matter how well prepared you are, there will always be accidents.
Whenever Yang Yun encounters an unexpected situation, he will always think of what Xin Bian once said.
This is the case when Zheng Zha threw that murderous punch, when Yang Yun knew that Death was coming and it was Resident Evil 2, and when the clone Chu Xuan took out the combo of exile and war shackles... and now, Chu Xuan's layout has finally had unexpected problems.
You want to put everything in the world in your palm, but there will still be water that you can't catch and quietly slip away from your fingertips. The more you plan for the future, the more unexpected things may be... The reverse flow of time and space, the side effect of using the Conferred God List, makes the word "accident", which should have nothing to do with Chu Xuan's layout, appear in reality.
There is accident in inevitability, and there is a hint of inevitability in accident.
——The roar of a monster came to my ears.
Even though Yang Yun was on the surface of the water, several kilometers away from the "crack" deep in the Pacific Ocean, the roar of the monsters sent to Earth by the pioneers was still faintly audible. However, Yang Yun didn't care about the monsters that were about to attack. Instead, he used the power of the third-order gene lock to simulate Chu Xuan's thinking and think about his previous words.
Id, ego, superego.
Everyone has innate desires, such as appetite, reproduction, and survival. This is a desire engraved in genes and souls, an instinct of living things, and a natural reason.
Chu Xuan's meaning is not difficult to understand, and it can even be said to be simple and clear, that is, the current situation must be Yang Yun's stand, let him face the test of the Lord God alone, let him play his own role, face his inner desires... touch the boundary called the fourth-order gene lock, and bring everyone back to the Lord God space safely.
So, does such a simple reading comprehension take so long?
The answer is yes. Yang Yun, who is under the "super sense" and the third-order gene lock, understood Chu Xuan's meaning in less than a second. But he used the rest of the time to compare these words with everything he had experienced, and look back at the path he had taken.
"... You really gave me a difficult problem, Chu Xuan."
Yang Yun stared at the communicator in his hand without blinking, which had lost the signal and left only the rustling sound, and muttered to himself: "Such a heavy burden was actually handed over to someone like me..."
It was not distrust of himself, but a clear understanding of himself. The reason why people are human is that they know how to restrain themselves, understand their position, and understand what they can do.
This is the concept that Yang Yun has always adhered to. Although he knows that he may have too many concerns and cannot let go, he feels from the bottom of his heart that there is no problem with this. Because it is much better to be cautious step by step than to lose your life in arrogance.
- My intelligence is not as good as Chu Xuan, and my strength is not as good as Zheng Zha.
- Even if I confronted the replica Zheng Zha head-on in Resident Evil 2, I just borrowed the power of my partner. This is a victory for the team, not an individual victory. It was the foresighted Yang Yun and Chu Xuan who defeated the replica Chu Xuan who did not have all the information. It was the "Zhongzhou Team" that defeated the "Devil Team", not the individual named "Yang Yun" who defeated the strongest replica of reincarnation, Zheng Zha.
Knowing the measure, understanding one's own position, looking at things from a rational perspective, and making corresponding judgments are the characteristics of a wise man, and are also the principles that Yang Yun has always adhered to. It can be said that since he entered the main god space, he has naturally placed himself in the position of a "weak person" and carefully carried out his own plans.
If not, Yang Yun would not have been able to get to this point today. He has always been like this. This is a proven path, and it is also the most suitable path for him to choose after experiencing the beating of reality. As for whether this path can be taken, everything in the past has given the answer.
——Zheng Zha did better than me in fighting. He not only showed a stronger potential than me in Final Destination, but also completed the final blow to his replica in Resident Evil 2.
——Chu Xuan’s talent in layout is far better than mine. It can even be said that my layout can reach this point today, which is inseparable from his words and deeds during that period. After successfully defeating the replica Chu Xuan and initially understanding what feelings are, the gap between him and me will only widen.
——I am not as strong as Zheng Zha, and my wisdom is not as good as Chu Xuan. Since the difficulty of Resident Evil 2 has been overcome, then the gap between me and them will only widen in the future. Shouldn’t I retire from the front line with peace of mind and do my own job with peace of mind?
Before entering the Pacific Rim world, Yang Yun did think so in his heart. He thought that Zheng Zha and Chu Xuan, who became stronger after resurrection, were fully capable of handling everything. However, Chu Xuan’s words just now told Yang Yun that his idea was wrong. No matter how strong Zheng Zha was, he could not do it alone. The life and death of the Zhongzhou team was now in his hands alone.
Personal heroism, and teamwork ability.
One person can handle everything, and work together with everyone to handle everything.
What Chu Xuan wants him to do now is contrary to what he has always done. These are two completely opposite concepts. It was the collision of these two diametrically opposed ideas that made Yang Yun realize that some of his deepest thoughts had quietly changed at some point...and this created some kind of contradiction.
——A contradiction that was enough for Yang Yun to realize that he had reached a dead end at some point.
As time passed, the water began to surge. Finally, thirty seconds passed, and the "crack" deep under the sea completely spit out the two monsters. As a ferocious giant beast emerged from the sea, the huge waves turned into a heavy rain, and it roared to the sky. In the blink of an eye, its huge and ugly face was very close to Yang Yun...
"Thank you for the reminder, Chu Xuan."
Facing the figure that covered the sky and the sun, without even noticing that there was a human monster on its path, Yang Yun said a word softly and punched forward with his fist.
Along with the sound of the atmosphere in this area being expelled by the boundless force, green light spread from the fist. And the next moment, the heavy rain in the sky stopped, the surging waves subsided, and an unknown number of tons of seawater suddenly separated to both sides——
The huge monster body blocking the path of Fist Wind turned into a sky full of minced meat.
