In other words, these two words are extremely far away from Xu Cheng.
It's hard to imagine how twisted and bizarre things could make Xu Cheng sigh "terrible".
Hey, you saw it today.
Scholars want to use their own original characteristics to build a world without redundant elements.
People in that world would not even eat a piece of strawberry cake without considering whether it makes sense.
Xu Cheng said: "Such a world is really terrible."
…
The little girl president thought: "A world like that is really boring."
She likes to eat sweets.
Yes.
The leader of one of the three extraordinary forces, a person with regular characteristics that scares countless people, the most direct terrifying enemy to witnesses, and an extraordinary person who has the ability to destroy the entire blue sky.
President of the Star Chamber of Commerce.
She especially likes sweets.
Although it has been predicted for a long time that if you eat a piece of strawberry cake, the probability of gaining weight is 60%, but the little girl still can't help it.
It's not any other special reason, such as replenishing energy in time.
For all these reasons, there are actually better ways, such as directly supplementing energy supplements, etc. It is simply that the president likes it.
She wants to eat strawberry cake.
She wants to eat strawberry cake now, and she also wants to eat strawberry cake after humans have completely adapted to the weird rules.
That's all.
…
Scholars think this way: "..."
He had no idea.
Because he had already cut off all connections with himself, and he was the first to be cut off.
Strictly speaking, the current scholar is not the same person as the "scholar" before he slashed him with a knife.
The fact that previous scholars were able to "cut themselves off" actually shows that there is some kind of connection between themselves and other things.
And when a scholar cuts off these connections, he himself becomes a "setting" with only purpose.
At that time, scholars will no longer be the "scholars" they were before.
The current scholar is just a "setting", just like those who were cut by his original characteristics.
This setting called "Scholar" has only one purpose:
Do whatever it takes to make everything in Azure become "able to defeat the strange world".
What does he want to do?
In fact, he had already explained it very clearly to Xu Cheng.
Scholars want to cut off all "connections" in the world and turn everything into a mere "setting".
At that time, the entire Azure will become a super large-scale multiplayer online game without players.
All settings in this game will remain in their original state and continue.
All "randomness" will be erased by the inherent settings in this game.
Office workers are office workers, extraordinary people are extraordinary people, and witnesses are witnesses...
When everyone performs their duties, the entire world becomes a fixed "rule".
Everyone will act according to this inherent rule and there will be no other unnecessary thoughts.
This is the "rule".
Scholars believe that the reason why humans are unable to cope with the decisive battle with strange creatures is precisely because strange creatures are the embodiment of "rules".
It is impossible for human beings with quick thinking to beat the inherent rules.
Unless... people also become rules.
When the entire blue sky becomes "rules", you will be able to fight against strange creatures.
This is rules against rules!
…
"I do not understand."
Xu Cheng touched his chin, smiled and shook his head.
The scholar asked patiently: "I can explain it all. What don't you understand?"
"You have the ability to cut off everyone's connections. This is your own ability and does not require the cooperation of others."
"If I were you, I might just choose to cut off the connection with 'I', so that I would become the setting you expected."
"But you didn't do that."
"Not only that, you also explained many specific reasons for your behavior to me and her."
"Oh, by the way, there is her."
Xu Cheng pointed with his thumb at the little president girl behind him.
"If you force it, you can choose to try to convince me and let me help you."
"——Although this is unlikely, I can understand your behavior."
"But what about her?"
"You have already broken up with the Star Chamber of Commerce, so why didn't you cut off her connection with everything around her from the beginning?"
"Your settings are not so naive that you want the Star Chamber of Commerce to recognize you, right?"
"No, no, of course not... No, actually it is."
The scholar shook his head and smiled softly: "I need your approval."
Xu Cheng asked back: "What happens after I agree with you?"
"Come over here and let me chop."
"Um?"
"Yes, come here and let me cut you voluntarily."
The scholar repeated.
Later, he further explained: "It's very tiring to cut you down."
This statement made Xu Cheng a little puzzled.
After all, he had just witnessed the scholar cut off the connections of everyone at the intersection in an instant.
"You are different."
The scholar patiently explained: "People are different, just like some people are smart and some people are stupid."
"The same goes for connections."
The scholar looked up to the sky.
"There are too many people in this world, and they live like a 'setting'."
"Rest - do - rest - do - rest - do..."
"What do some people call this behavior...life?"
"They created a narrative that mundanity is the norm in life."
"So, they continue to do this with peace of mind, and even think it is right, so they simply force the people around them to do the same."
"Even when others want to do something outrageous, they will laugh at those people."
"Look, fools who don't understand life will only ask for trouble!"
"—They tend to say that."
"Such people live by nature and don't have too many unnecessary connections with the outside world, so it's easy for me to cut them down."
"It's so simple!"
The scholar's cross-shaped pupils stared intently at President Xu Chenghe.
"But you are different. You have an extremely solid connection with everything around you."
"Others' words cannot change you, and you will not change yourself easily because of other people's words."
"People like you are the most troublesome!"
"At the same time, you always like to slow down your pace with some messy and meaningless things."
"You should be heroes, heroes of this world!"
The scholar's eyes turned red.
"You should fulfill your own settings, you don't need other unnecessary contacts!"
Scholars have always thought this way.
Use yourself to save others.
Very arrogant.
Therefore, he is the fixed value of arrogance!
"Not long ago I chopped down the most disgusting person in my life."
"Her life is meaningless."
The scholar's voice was calm.
But this calm voice made Xu Cheng's face darken instantly.
The scholar raised his right hand high and lightly snapped his fingers.
"I'll prove it to you."
Snapped!
Immediately, the surrounding scene began to distort, blur, and deform.
