Soul of Burning Steel

Vol 7.8 Chapter 71: Selfish leeway

If you want clear and reliable answers, your questions must be equally clear and regular. Now, Joshua’s questions are so broad that the knowledge receivers don’t know how to answer.

In this regard, Joshua did not care about the gazes of other legendary powerhouses on the side. After thinking for a while, he continued: “In detail, just take you as an example—knowledge takers, is it in your civilization? , Are there no opponents?”

In response, no answer came from the communication channel. The knowledge taker didn’t seem to understand Joshua’s meaning, and the warrior smiled and continued: “I know the greatness of your civilization, you and your ancestors, This dark multiverse has wandered for millions, millions of years, and you have traveled 770,000 years in this multi-galaxy for the sake of inheritance. I know, you must have made up your mind long ago, if one day you need it If you sacrifice, then you will sacrifice without hesitation, just as when you knew that we were coming, because you suspected that an evil **** was chasing us behind us, you came as a clan and prepared to build a fortress at the two realms galaxy for the multiple galaxy. Resist the invasion of darkness and become a solid shield in front of all civilizations.”

The latter sentence, Joshua can be regarded as flattering each other, this immediately made the other legendary powerhouses look at each other, feeling inexplicably horrified, but the knowledge receivers on the other side of the communication channel did not know this, and they would naturally not deny it. These words, because this is indeed their original idea.

“but.”

As soon as the conversation turned, Joshua’s tone suddenly became cold, and with doubts, the warrior raised his right hand and swiped in front of him. He whispered: “However, in a civilization, it’s really possible that everyone is brave. , Are everyone a warrior who is not afraid of sacrifice? They are not afraid of death, are selfless, have great sentiments, will sacrifice themselves for the inheritance of knowledge and civilization, and will bleed for the future of the multiverse? All people of a civilization are like this ?”

“I do not believe in that.”

This is Joshua’s doubts.

Knowledge receivers, in terms of civilization, are indeed great.

In order to pass on knowledge, to pass on the messages of the sages of the past, and pass on the history of countless races in the past, they have been silently wandering in the multi-star river for hundreds of thousands of years. They can go to the forefront of the World Eater War without hesitation. Fighting against those evil creatures that are capable of destroying the world and obliterating civilization, they are not afraid of sacrifices, full of courage, and can proudly claim that their race has chosen the’future destined to destroy’, and they can even be like the’teaching master’. When he is not enough to advance, he will leave all the inheritance to other civilizations, and he will fight for future possibilities and time for the successors.

This is great.

Great to weird.

“Impossible. The instinctive inheritance factor of intelligent life will make people deny these too great sentiments.”

The soldier said so, his tone was calm: “Fear of death, selfishness, denial of greatness, thinking that there must be stains behind those great decisions, and there are private reasons that we don’t know. They will not be willing to sacrifice themselves for things that are too great. I will not bleed for civilization, the future, and inheritance.”

“——Although the world will be destroyed in a hundred years, what does it have to do with me? Anyway, the world will not be destroyed before I die. If this is the case, why should I pay for the future? After I die, I will let him be flooded.”

“——Although there will be a powerful enemy invading in the future, what does it have to do with me? I run far away. What kind of civilization can be managed. As long as I can survive this life, it doesn’t matter.”

“——I want to enjoy. Others sacrifice and sacrifice. It has nothing to do with me. As long as I live well, it doesn’t matter. No one can influence me to live the life I want. Whoever influences my life is the enemy.”

Joshua’s words are not sharp, he just speaks very ordinary, using very simple language: “Like the screening process of our Mycroft Expeditionary Force, it is very difficult. Two billion people in the world, the foundation of daring to take risks There is not much. The vast majority of people simply cannot understand the importance of “searching for the truth behind the multiverse”. They can only see that it is very dangerous to navigate in the void, and it is very hard to fight with other civilizations. The privilege of the extraordinary will disappear in the fleet. , So obviously there are a lot of strong transcendents, but they did not intend to join the fleet. They would rather stay in a calm and safe rear instead of taking risks. They can also enjoy the privileges and live happily and comfortably.”

–the truth? Is it important? Can you eat it? Can you enjoy it? Can it make me live happier? Since it doesn’t work, why should I pursue it? what? Is it about the future of the multiverse and the survival of countless civilizations? Forget it, at that time I might have died long ago, what does it have to do with me.

“Knowledge takers, our Mycroft civilization does have such a problem. In our entire civilization, there must be people who are willing to take risks, and there are people who like to enjoy more… The former cannot be said to be great rationally. It can only be said that it has not been considered carefully, it is a bit silly, and it is easy to be incited by slogans, and the latter can not be said to be selfish, but can only be said to be more exquisite self-interest. This time the voyage across the void has already caused a lot of both Distinguish, this is inevitable for our Mycroft civilization, but I have not seen it in you.”

What Joshua said has already made the faces of several legendary powerhouses look unnatural. This time, the warrior brought all his students here, the first team, the elite team and Lisa, basically all of them. Brought it here, but like Barbarossa, some of his disciples have found excuses for not joining the fleet. For this, the legendary mage must be able to see the reason behind it, but as a teacher, he is not qualified to ask for it. My own students do life-threatening things for a vague slogan.

As legendary strong men, they are enlightened, but their three views are not ordinary people’s three views. Their views are not ordinary people’s views. This is not to advocate the difference between the strong and ordinary people. It’s the fact that the legendary powerhouses are the top rulers and powerhouses of the entire civilization, and their stand cannot represent the entire civilization at all.

What Qiao Xiu said was indeed true. The fleet of knowledge takers is so large that it can distort the trajectory of the world. The number of their individual races is not calculated by hundreds of billions. In such a huge race, is it possible that everyone is willing to serve the mission of knowledge takers. Give your life?

Qiao Xiu’s question really puzzled the other legendary powerhouses – they also felt that this kind of thing was unlikely to happen.

However, the answer from the knowledge taker is simple.

“That’s because you are still in an illusion.”

There was no panic caused by Joshua’s inquiry, and there was no extra emotion. The knowledge taker replied earnestly: “Beasts that only live in the daytime cannot understand the ideas of nocturnal creatures, but creatures that wander only in warm seasons. I don’t understand the cold winter at all. The Starfall Mykrov civilization was born in the light and grew in the light. You grew up on the wreckage of the Glory Era, and were guarded by the Seven Gods and many powerful people. This illusion has given too many people. Excess margin.”

“However, for this multiverse,’light’ is an illusion.’Peace’ is an illusion.’Equality and stability’ and even the idea of’I can escape and be alone’ is an illusion that is grossly wrong. .”

The tone of the knowledge taker seems to be a little bit irritating when I say this: “How dangerous and dark this multiverse is, and only those who live in illusion will feel that’I can break away from the whole of civilization.’ , Alone.’ Let’s not talk about the giant void beasts and world swallowers wandering around, even other civilizations, other lone travelers with similar ideas are extremely dangerous, and if it’s just to find a seclusion in a remote world , Living a boring and empty life, that kind of life is originally a punishment, so why care if he escapes?”

“Mrs. Mike Rowe, what you have every day will not appear precious… Your people, your civilization, were born in the bright era, and those who are accustomed to daylight at birth will not look forward to the’sunrise’ ‘of.

Only people who were born in the dark night and experienced the most desperate and darkest moments will look forward to the gleam of the sky and the morning that ends the night-just like us, we have experienced the end of the last great reincarnation, being The swarms of world-swallowers are chasing like dogs at home, we flee endlessly in the dark void, watching our galaxy be swallowed by darkness and disappear into the endless sea of ​​stars.

We have fallen into the abyss, and so far have not crawled out of it.

We actually don’t understand the concept of “being alone”, and we don’t understand the difference between “selflessness” and “selfishness”. As for death, that is liberation. Is it not a pleasure to be liberated from this gloomy and desperate multiverse? ? What’s more, we and you are logically rooted in different races and different creatures. Your body is based on ‘life energy’, and we are a group of people living in ‘magic power’. If we have to say the same thing, it is that we all want to expel the dark night in the multiverse. This is the fundamental reason why we can communicate. ”

The knowledge taker said faintly—their words were entirely composed of magic waves. If it weren’t for special machinery, Mrs. Mike Luo would not be able to perceive them. Similarly, Mrs. Mike Luo’s sonic language would be for them. It is also clutter. If it weren’t for the entity’s fleet encountering each other, even if the Knowledge Taker and Mrs. Mike Luo lived in the same world, it would be difficult to detect each other.

“Let civilized individuals have the leeway to be’selfish, fear of death,’ unwilling to sacrifice’exquisite self-interest’, which is what many civilizations living in the dark cannot ask for. It is precisely because life is too comfortable, so People have the leeway to think about the contradiction between the’individual’ and the’group’, that’s why they have this kind of thought. Mrs. Mike Rowe, you are doing so well, that’s why you have this kind of distress, as if you are already wandering in the stars. After 700,000 years, we have forgotten even the way of’happy enjoyment’.

You remember drinking, having sex, enjoying food, and appreciating the art of writing and drawing. You know that these are happy things, so some people will give up their faith for these happy things. This is helpless. However, we, in the process of passing on knowledge, have forgotten all the enjoyment techniques, and we have forgotten how our race enjoyed happiness in the past, and none of this information is left.

Therefore, among us, no one will deviate from the subject and lose faith because of the reason of ‘enjoy’. We are all in one mind. Of course, maybe one day, we will regain the old way of enjoyment. In this way, our civilization will also lose the centripetal force of the present one. But is that a bad thing or a good thing? This is not known. ”

Joshua listened silently to the other party’s words, the soldiers were silent, and all the legends, including the old pope, were in awe of this.

Although only a few sentences, the knowledge taker gave up too much for the mission of passing on.

They have recorded countless knowledge and cultures of other races, but they have forgotten the means of enjoyment in their own civilization alone. They have voluntarily given up all “fun” and all superfluous ideas, in order to be able to stay like a day for hundreds of thousands of years. Reasonable thinking to maintain the absolute cohesion of civilization.

In terms of civilization alone, the civilization of knowledge takers has become deformed and cannot be more deformed, and their logic of thinking is very obviously distorted.

Therefore, one cannot fail to admire, one cannot fail to respect, and cannot fail to respect.

“But even if it is us, our descendants, if they really step into the bright world with one foot, they will certainly not look forward to the sunrise again.”

The Knowledge Taker is still answering. The commander of the First Fleet should be a high-level member of the Knowledge Taker Fleet. Its communication method is already similar to that of ordinary Mrs. Mike Rowe. It can be seen that he has worked hard for this exchange. Yes, and now, he is using a rather helpless tone to explain his true thoughts.

“But how to put it… we can only do this. Although it is ironic, what we are trying to do now is to let people in the future have the ability to survive and the future without worries, and be selfish and selfish at will. , Fear of death and the right to sacrifice. After all, heroes are respectable, but there must be heroes, and even only heroic civilization is sad.”

The exchange is over.

The old pope silently took out a book and outlined the notes with the holy light on it, while the taciturn elf queen sat aside, looking at the empty vacuum of the universe outside the window, it seemed that except for Qiao Xiu Outside of Asia, no one else has this kind of personal problem.

But is this really Joshua’s personal thoughts? Everyone present was skeptical. If Israel asks this kind of question, or the elf queen, Pope Eagle, it is quite normal. Joshua didn’t seem to care about this kind of problem at all. He wouldn’t even consider how many fleets he had behind him. He would go directly to him when he encountered an enemy.

He still thinks about how many dissonances there are in civilization? He doesn’t care about it at all! It’s good for those who dare to charge to accompany him to charge. It doesn’t matter if there is no one. He will never try to understand those who are unwilling to fight. He will only be himself-Joshua is such a person, this is to stay in all the legends. The impression of the strong.

But now it seems that he is not as simple as everyone thinks.

But there was no question.

In the entire envoy, everyone remained silent.

In the world of Arnason, two small warships left in opposite directions, and the bright white light of the A-type star was shining with a light blue luster.

And Joshua stood at the bridge, he stood at the forefront of the battleship, standing with his hands in his hands.

“Knowledge receivers, in order to ensure the 770,000-year heritage and the stability of civilization, let the entire race abandon selfish desires and enjoyment. In this way, they can make decisions and make decisions without hesitation as a whole. Their belief comes from the persistence to abandon all interference.”

The warrior turned his back to the stars, the power of the flames of the Arnathan world gradually moved away, the envoy was preparing to plunge into the void, and his heart was still thinking about various problems.

“So, 160 million years ago, from the birth of Cthulhu to the present, the hidden and dark behind-the-scenes, or the behind-the-scenes, how many things did they give up and how much interference did they give up to be able to do so? In the long time, persisting in doing such a thing? It is such a large-scale destruction, extinction, and reincarnation-like cleansing?”

In the same way, what about the strong who are determined to fight all of this, such as the sage of the devil? What kind of beliefs do they have, so that they can always insist on fighting against the strong on the other side, and go to the axis of the multiverse without hesitation?

You know, if the strong want to give up and have fun, it is easier than ordinary people… Then countless restrictions on the development of civilization are for the purpose of ruling the foundation of the pseudo-transcendent civilization. Most of them are because the strong cannot restrain themselves. Desire, if the strong want to give up their responsibilities, then they really don’t need to care whether this multiverse is dark or not, and they can enjoy countless years in peace.

Even because Cthulhu only targets civilizations above Gadamer’s level 2~www.wuxiax.com~ As long as their world civilization is primitive enough, they can even enjoy the end of Galaxy.

Time is too long… Can the consciousness of mankind and the belief of the legendary powerhouse really persist in this long and slow road?

Joshua doesn’t believe in human beings, beliefs that are too vague, and doesn’t believe that time can leave no trace of an existence.

Therefore, he said to himself: “Now I can only be sure that I will not change my beliefs in the next few million years.”

——It seems that I can only fight for it, and solve all this as much as possible within a few million years.

Even he couldn’t guarantee that he would not change in the future. As a strong man, he admitted that he was short on this point. With this thought, Qiao Xiu shook his head helplessly.

“Time is running out.”
