Chapter 830 The past is gone(1/2)
Author: Binary Sword Fairy
Osmandis restrained his thoughts, but Chen Yan still heard part of them.
"Fate asked me to take good care of them."
Osmandis was certain that the care He spoke of was not the care he understood.
Things seemed to be getting out of hand, and maybe it was time for him to leave.
He weighed it in his mind, but was afraid that He would hear it, so he didn't dare to think too much.
And next, what surprised him was that he didn't want to go back to the ship immediately, but said to the two of them:
"I still have important things to do, you go home first."
Reading between the lines, he actually recognized his human identity as Chen Yan.
Osmandis did not speak, and Swam was at a loss. The two of them just watched his back disappear into the crowd.
Osmandis said to the confused Swam:
"Let's go back to the ship first."
…
…
He walked into the busy city and was caught in the middle of the crowds of people coming and going. He was like a leaf of duckweed drifting with the crowds, and felt a little overwhelmed in his heart——
This overwhelmed emotion does not belong to the original Him, but comes from the memory of the original owner of this body.
He is very curious about such emotions, because this is an experience he has never had since he became conscious - he has never used the body of a carbon-based life other than himself, and individuals at higher levels of life will not tolerate the occurrence of life on their own.
Level downgrade.
What contributed to His current downgrade was fate.
He comforted himself that everything was an arrangement of fate, and I just accepted the arrangement of fate.
Another thing he thought of was:
If an individual possesses most of the memories and emotions of another individual, and is more aware of some important points in his life than he is, then is this consciousness the original consciousness, or has he become this person?
He thinks it's close to the latter, but not entirely——
He recognized his identity as "Chen Yan", but did not think that he needed to form a new world view based on Chen Yan's memory, and then survive in human society according to this world view.
He saw Chen Yan's memories of the past few years. The memories going forward were already very blurry. He couldn't see clearly and didn't want to look at them because there was no need. He was not interested in those memories at all.
What interests him is that, according to some information in Chen Yan's memory, a being like him is defined as an "evil god", and "evil god" is defined as a "villain" by most people in the Sunshine Age.
Other information called "values" in Chen Yan's memory negated this definition.
He raised the corners of his mouth and complained to himself using Chen Yan's values and tone:
"Everything the villain does is bad. The villain must do these bad things. The villain must destroy the world. Does the villain have to be a perverted demon with no humanity?"
"You have to kill people and set fires to be a villain, but you can't be a villain by snatching lollipops from children?"
He seemed to be very interested in such a game, so he continued to use Chen Yan's thinking, emotions and values to continue asking and answering himself:
"Individuals cannot be defined simply by 'good or bad'. Diode thinking is too simple and stupid. If guided correctly, the evil god who is defined as the villain may not always do bad things."
He seems to be addicted to this game of "calling Chen Yan's memory and values" to judge things. Regardless of the different eyes of passers-by around him, he continues to call on the cognition, values and world view in Chen Yan's memory, and based on this, he takes care of himself.
Zi Q&A said:
“The development of things is a process of negation of negation. It is impossible for any creature with subjective will to carry out life activities according to the same standard all the time.
The so-called righteous god who represents all the good things in the world will one day become the evil god defined by some people, just like the Holy Light today, who no longer knows what it has become."
"For now, what I do cannot be defined by the standards of evil gods at all - I help the females of this era to breed stronger offspring. These offspring can not only protect these females through family relationships, but also become excellent labor forces.
——
With the outstanding labor force blessed by Yousu, they will have higher intelligence and stronger bodies than ordinary humans, which means that after they invest in social production and labor, they will make greater contributions to society than ordinary people.
Secondly, for the current human society that is undergoing rapid development, the labor force and population itself are the biggest dividends of the times, so my behavior of reproducing offspring is essentially an behavior that benefits society.
Taking a step back, even if the blessing of the deep will not take effect in the Sunshine Age, the end will come again one day. At that time, humans with the genetic material of the blessing of the deep will be more adaptable to the world... They will continue to contribute to the world.
Life, allowing life to continue and possibly finding a chance to be redeemed, is a priceless wealth."
When he used Chen Yan's worldview and values to deduce this point, he suddenly discovered that from Chen Yan's perspective, he could not be defined as an evil god at all, but would be defined as a "strategic reserve resource."
It's really interesting.
He felt a trace of regret in his heart, because he knew that in this new era that was completely different from the apocalypse of the deep sea, there must be very few people who could understand Him, and even fewer people who could accept Him.
Chen Yan is considered one.
But Chen Yan was gone.
This trace of regret quickly disappeared.
This is not the emotion He should have.
He knew that he had been subtly influenced by Chen Yan's values.
He looked at the crowd, his eyes dim.
He has been standing on this road for a long time, but has never encountered a human being with profound gifts. This means that there were no survivors among the group of believers He sent to the distant seas to find opportunities for survival.
Although he had been mentally prepared for such a result, he still felt a strong sense of loss.
He knew that these losses came from Chen Yan's memory - from the subtle influence that the values and emotions in Chen Yan's memory had on him.
How could gods have such rich human emotions?
He cannot be considered a god.
He has become a human being.
He shook his head to get these negative emotions out of his mind, then came to a bench used for resting on the street, sat down in front of a dancing holographic single girl, and put his hands on the bench.
.
The next moment, precise synesthesia that was thousands of times more powerful than Chen Yan's was produced.
Synaesthesia penetrated into the entire mechanical hive through the bench, spread from the mechanical hive to the sea, and then diffused from the sea to the places he had visited in the world - those places were vaguely in his deep memory, without direction.
There are only coordinates.
Synaesthesia as precise as silk thread spread from his consciousness, and the next moment, the scene in front of him suddenly changed:
In a quiet trench 13,000 meters below the sea surface, there is an ancient ship that will never be discovered. This was once the territory of a powerful ethnic group. The origin of the ancient ship is unknown. It seems to have been built before the Deep Sea Age.
Something that already exists.
He stepped onto the side of the ship and entered the ship's building. He walked through each cabin and saw a small pile of unknown substances in the cabin under the dim light of the light source above the heads of the anglers that could be seen everywhere.
Those are the remains of a certain wandering soul, which have been lying quietly in a sunken ship on the seabed for countless years.
He had been invited to visit this ship, where he lay dormant and knelt down to worship the other party's strength, exchanging allegiance for the temporary use of a small sea pasture near the territory of this powerful group.
He touched the bones of the wandering soul, and the scene when the race was destroyed appeared in front of him. Even if he was so powerful, he would inevitably die in the civil war.
Synaesthesia took him to the second coordinate:
This is an extinct undersea volcano. After a long time, the extinct volcano has been covered with dense corals. It is not too deep here, so the scattered light of the sun allows us to see here. The purgatory in the darkness now looks like
It actually looks like the kingdom of some powerful god.
He came to a location where a dense coral reef was located, walked through the coral reef, and entered a covered entrance beneath the coral reef.
Hidden within the entrance is a force of wandering souls who have experienced atavism in the Deep Sea Age. They call themselves [Fire Butterflies] and want to use their awakened memories to restore the era of sunshine and let the Deep Sea Age regain its flames.
They had approached Him for cooperation and were ridiculed mercilessly by Him. He told them that the destiny of all life in the Deep Sea Age was simply to survive, instead of wasting food and energy on such a completely hopeless thing.
And now, after a long time, they are no longer here.
He touched the objects they used for experiments, and synaesthesia allowed him to know everything that happened next:
After He ruthlessly rejected them, they did not give up their experiments. They tried to create flames adapted to sea water to illuminate the darkness at the bottom of the sea, but every experiment resulted in failure.
After countless failures, they discovered another thing: although the fire in the water they created could not bring light to the seabed for a long time, it could powerfully remove the sources of pollution on the seafloor - the fire in the water could burn all kinds of filth.
A mixture of viruses and powerful bacteria!
Over the next countless years, they developed and expanded, eliminated many sources of pollution, awakened and developed more technologies. They allowed the wandering souls to gradually escape the dangers of the seabed. Until one day, a ray of light shone through the clouds that had accumulated for countless years.
…
He looked at the shocking light and understood something in his heart.
All of this is the fate arranged by the world for every wandering soul.
…
He continued to use synaesthesia to travel to many places. Some of those places had surfaced due to the geological changes of the continental shelf over the long years, some had become fishing grounds full of vitality due to the development of human activities in the Sunshine Age, and most of them remained the same.
The past he was familiar with was silent, as if it would not change after countless years.
The place he was once familiar with has changed.
To be continued...
