Chapter 54 Arrival
It took only ten minutes to go back and forth, but when he saw the reef again, he found that there was another person in front of Yu Qingqing.
It was a person composed of pure light, with milky white light emitting all over his body, and even a little light floated slightly in the air, like countless small fireflies. Yu Qingqing stood in front of it, while the big alien species crawled on the ground and shivered, as if he had encountered his own natural enemy.
Li Zhen frowned slightly, landed beside Yu Qingqing as fast as possible, protecting her behind her.
The little girl grabbed his arm and whispered, "Brother, he is--"
"Well, I know." Li Zhen responded in a deep voice, then looked up at the person in front of him.
In fact, looking up was a subconscious action, because the figure looked shorter than him, not even much taller than the big man crawling on the ground. However, once he stood in front of it, he felt that the person suddenly became quite tall and far away - as if he was a giant hundreds or even thousands of meters tall, but he was far away, so he looked "short".
Perhaps it is a "projection", or it can be said to be "coming".
But this time I didn't feel the strong pressure when I was in Japan, it seemed that the other party was conveying a certain degree of kindness.
The two of them looked at each other silently for a while, and the projection made a sound: "This is our second meeting. The last time, it should be in a place called Japan."
The light on his neck trembled slightly when he spoke, as if humans were vibrating their vocal cords. Types, such as Yinglong, can use "type" language when talking. That language contains a huge amount of information that humans cannot even bear. However, this time it is just "provoking" and vocalizing in the form of vibration.
Li Zhen realized that this might not be the other party "convenient" him, but the intention to do so - he didn't want to expose too much during the conversation.
He thought about it and said only two words dryly: "Happy to know."
The other party...but the public enemy of mankind is a guy who is considered a "totem" by the Gate of Truth. The current situation is like the hostile heads of two countries suddenly ran to meet, and there is no intimacy or friendship in any case. Although the other party has been trying to make him recognize his "genre" in some way and then become that "master"-
However, so far, Li Zhen has always regarded him as a manager of a pyramid scheme company.
The projected body's meaning flashed unidentifiedly, and went straight to the topic: "Humans told me that you are going to find the gun of Langhinus."
Li Zhen smiled and said, "That thing is called this name for you?"
"It has many names, each of which can refer to it, just a title." The projection paused, "And what are you going to do?"
Li Zhen stared at him for a while and said slowly: "What do you think?"
The projection sound was calm: "If it were this one, you would try to destroy me, or us."
"Then you know I'm going to get that gun, and you know what's my purpose in getting the gun, and what's my purpose today?" Li Zhen spread his hands, "You and I stand on different positions, and I used to kill your companions, Chiyou. Do you expect yourself to persuade me to give up that idea?"
"You should do that," Projection said calmly, "We are the same kind, not the enemy. Killing each other will only lead to destruction, and even in the most chaotic moments before, there was no precedent for destroying the same kind."
Li Zhen thought for a while, put away the slightly intense tone just now, and spread his hands: "Okay. I have to admit that the first time I talked to you, you gave me a very good impression. I thought you would be as cruel and irritable as Chiyou. Then I really seemed to have a good conversation with you. I can't figure out many things, and I can't understand many clues. You are a kind of species, not a human, that is, you may be a little different from those lunatics in the Gate of Truth. Then - I want to ask you a few questions."
"That's exactly what I'm here today," said the projector, "May I ask."
Li Zhen smiled slightly and thought for a moment: "The first question is, are you the ancestors of human beings?"
"No." The species replied, "but we are of the same origin. We have come from a common ancestor with humans, and humans are just accompanying them."
"Honologous - similar to the evolutionary theory of human beings?" Li Zhen frowned slightly, "or do species and human beings appear at the same time?"
The projection was silent for a while, as if looking for a statement that was easier for Li Zhen to accept - a human statement. A few seconds later he said: "I can answer you in detail this question. The entry point you are familiar with is the 'Cambrian Life Explosion'. According to human theory, before the Cambrian, there were quite a few species of organisms in the world before the Cambrian period, but in the millions of years after that, an explosive development suddenly occurred. We and human ancestors were born at this time."
"I say humans are companion, which means that when we appear, we are already the most perfect form and have the most powerful power. And humans - you can apply their own theories. They have indeed evolved over billions of years."
Li Zhen's heart slightly jumped: "So... what is the source?"
Originally, everyone thought that species were the direct ancestors of human beings - because the two were indeed surprisingly similar. Human beings had a shape similar to Chiyou, and now they had the ability to be extremely similar to species. There is no creature on this earth that is more similar.
But the answer I got now...is that humans evolved in billions of years?
This can only mean one thing.
It is not that humans are similar to each other, but that humans and species are surprisingly similar to that common "source"!
However, this time the projection made a humanized head shaking: "I don't know."
Li Zhen was stunned and almost asked, "How could you not know? The lives of species are terrible!"
But the next moment he realized that no matter how long his life was, it would be in a blink of an eye in the past few billions of years.
The other party's answer was the same as he thought.
The projection continued: "Because it's too long - enough to erase all memories. We are not immortal, but will reproduce and reproduce. Even if something is passed down, it will be unrecognizable. But there is something...its history is almost as long as ours. It is precisely because of this thing that I will not stop you from going to the moon. Perhaps finding it can answer our common doubts."
"You mean the gun of Langhinus." Li Zhen said in a deep voice, "You mean... the history of that thing is as long as you do?"
"Langenus's Gun, Judgmenter." The projector whispered, "We can remember two things until three thousand years ago, and this is one of them. The other-" He slowly raised his head, as if he was looking directly at Li Zhen, "It's the last day."
Li Zhen once heard this word. But now he listened to the projection sound again, but he felt that this terrible guy - this guy who occupied almost the entire continent and transformed billions of humans into alien species - had a hint of panic and uneasiness in his voice.
Ying Long should have mentioned this statement as well. What it says is "everything is meaningless."
And that "Li Zhen" once seemed disdainful when talking about Ying Long. His description was "that pessimist".
Everything seems to be related to this "last day".
Li Zhen said in a deep voice: "What does the last day refer to? For example, the day of judgment described in human religion?"
"Human religion?" The projection sound rose slightly, "You should know the relationship between my current name and human religion. Then it is obvious that the statement in human religion also originated from our legend. It's just that they misunderstood some things. For example, regard our awakening as the arrival of the last day. But in fact..."
"You are like those who are anxious all day long, and don't know what that means." Li Zhen said.
"Maybe. So I hope you can identify with your own identity and understand what we are doing now." The projection's voice returned to calm, "I gave them strength, and I did not kill them. When the last day comes, everything will be destroyed and no one will be spared. Whether you or me, you can only make yourself stronger now. Only in this way can you survive that disaster."
"Humans call you Lord, and you have the same meaning to us. So at this time, we should not be enemies, but companions."
Li Zhen thought for a while and suddenly asked, "Wait a minute - what you said just now, I have summarized it. That is to say, that the last day is a disaster for species and humans. So what you have to do now is to transform humans into alien species - and do you think this can enhance your power? But that level of creatures are just an ant to you, not even an ant. And sober and organized humans can create nuclear weapons - the power of that thing is even afraid of you, right? So what is the meaning of doing this? Isn't it a wiser choice to be aligned with humans?"
Projection shook his head slightly: "They are too weak after all, and history is too short. You say that their power is powerful because you don't know how powerful our power is. After so long, our tribe has declined to nearly extinction. And as you see me, who is still weak, can make humans helpless. What if it was me in my prime? What if it was us in my prime hundreds of millions of years ago? The millions of me, like me, are still frightened by that secret and have spread it to the present... Do you still think that humans are worth relying on allies?"
Li Zhen finally smiled: "If what I said is wrong, you can correct my point of view."
