Chen Nuo remained silent, but his expression turned extremely ugly.
At this moment, he felt as if his heart was being pinched hard by a big invisible hand. His chest was heavy and he couldn't breathe. However, he felt a depression gathering in his chest, as if it was about to explode.
After a while, he whispered hoarsely: "So... the deer Xixi died because of you?"
Sid looked at Chen Nuo in the mirror, but shook his head and said: "Sure enough, Chen Nuo is still Chen Nuo... You faced me with this expression in your last life. And now, you still have this expression.
Human beings are addicted to emotions, and after all, they cannot let go."
Chen Nuo had already passed by, staring closely at the blood mirror, and said slowly: "I only ask you, Lu Xixi died..."
"It's because of me. I made it very clear just now." West Germany said frankly without hesitation.
Chen Nuo: "...then what?"
"Then?" Sid smiled: "Then...you were naturally unwilling to give in."
After saying that, West Germany in the bloody mirror actually shook his head.
Then, he leaned forward, and the body in the blood curtain actually leaned out half way, and came closer, almost face to face, staring at Chen Nuo from close range.
“As soon as the seed dies, the main party in sharing the life plane is cut off.
As the weaker party, it will gradually weaken, and then its life will gradually wither. This is the accompanying relationship between the seed and the chosen one, and it cannot be reversed...
Back then, after I killed the fourth seed, Lu Xixi was already destined to die.
You don't want to accept this outcome, and you want to find a way to save her.
You must not remember it yourself.
That time, that day, right here, right in this place.
You knelt and sat in front of me, and you asked me if there was anything I could do to prevent her death.
You said that you are not interested in things like evolution at all. You just want to live your human life well, be with the people you like, and take care of the people you care about..."
Having said this, West Germany shook his head: "On that day, I suddenly understood something.
Perhaps, the answer that the mother is looking for, the direction of evolution, is really reverse phagocytosis.
But...you humans really can't get rid of emotions.
You have evolved from primitive beings into humans, and have evolved your emotions. You think this is the advanced thing that distinguishes humans from ordinary animals.
Yes, you call yourself advanced animals.
You have evolved the emotions between the bearer and the young, which you call motherly love and fatherly love.
You evolved the emotion between mating partners, which you call love.
You evolved the emotion between predators together, which you call companionship, friendship.
Your behavior of obedience to the stronger has evolved into loyalty.
These emotions that you have spent tens of thousands of years evolving have created the advanced features of your human race.
But at the same time, you are also destined to lock yourselves in this cage.
Maybe……
You humans...
It is simply not suitable for evolving into an advanced life form of the fourth dimension!"
…
Chen Nuo said coldly: "So what if it's not suitable?
What is the ‘evolution of fourth-dimensional life’? This kind of thing is what you alien beings are originally pursuing, and it is not what we are pursuing.”
He suddenly raised his head and stared at the blood-red West Germany very close at hand, staring at the other person's blood-red eyes: "So you are forcing something, but you must think that we accept it?"
Sid was silent for a moment, then actually nodded and sighed.
"It's really...the exact same lines."
West Germany shook his head, and then slowly said: "She has shared the life height of the seed, and when the seed dies, her life will pass away...
Just like a missing bowl, the water inside will eventually drain out.
I'm telling you what you can't do.
You don't believe it, and then you do something stupid.
You devoured me, you could have taken one step and climbed to a higher level.
But you chose not to do it.
You take the height of life you got from me and use it to fill the holes in that woman's life.
When she passes, you fill it up.
You kept her going for two years, but finally failed."
"Why did it fail?" Chen Nuo said quickly: "If Lu Xixi died because the seed life she shared no longer exists...then, I swallowed you and evolved into a higher life level existence. Why can’t I help her make up for the loss of life?”
"Because it doesn't match. Stupid!
I told you this.
The seed can share the height of life with the chosen one. Because the seed and the chosen one are ultimately three-dimensional lives!
And you, after you have made up for the defects, you have already stepped into the fourth dimension!
How can the life of the fourth dimension be supplemented to the third dimension?
If you want to..."
Chen Nuo suddenly felt something in his heart: "If I want to save Lu Xixi, unless... I also raise Lu Xixi to the fourth dimension.
Or, do I lower myself back to the third dimension?"
West Germany was silent for a moment, and then said this in a strange tone.
"Why... every time you think about it, after the last thought, you will end up with such an idea."
Chen Nuo frowned: "I thought so in my previous life?"
"……yes."
Chen Nuo began to think quickly.
Elevating the deer to the fourth dimension is obviously impossible.
In my previous life, I devoured West Germany.
But who can the deer devour?
The fourth seed has been killed.
So... I can only let myself fall back to the third dimension?
"Is there any way to return to the third dimension..."
"No."
"What about hypotheses? What about guesses?"
"There is no hypothesis, at least I don't know." West Germany answered simply.
Chen Nuo blinked his eyes.
Later, he finally sighed: "Since the level of the dimension cannot be changed.
Then...it seems that time travel is the only option..."
Sid suddenly burst out laughing.
He smiled as if he was extremely happy and had a strange flavor.
"As expected! As expected!
The same human character, the same way of thinking, facing the same things, will always come to the same idea in the end! Hahahahahahahahahaha..."
Chen Nuo was shocked!
"So... after I died in my previous life, I returned to the end of 2000, became another person, and traveled through time and space...
I came back to save Lu Xixi?"
"Yes, I have to say, this is a very stupid approach." West Germany commented in a straightforward tone without mercy.
·
Chen Nuo fell into deep thought.
He died in 2021 in his previous life.
Then I returned to the end of 2000, in this era, to save my lover who died in the previous life...
But the problem is...
Chen Nuo suddenly frowned and said: "But when I came back here, I forgot all the emotional memories between me and Lu Xixi! I lost two years of memory!
In this state, even if I go back to the year 2000, how can I save Lu Xixi?
I don’t even remember my relationship with her!”
At this point, Chen Nuo's expression changed: "It's you, you erased the two years of memory between me and Lu Xixi! You want to stop me?!"
West Germany stared at Chen Nuo, and the expression in his eyes gradually changed from sneer and sarcasm to pity.
"What kind of life form do you think I am in now?
Do you think that in this state, I have the ability to block your memory?
After being swallowed by you, your life form and life height have surpassed mine... Even my power at its peak is lower than your life height.
How could I seal away your memory??"
Chen Nuo felt as if he had been hit hard by a heavy hammer!
He shook his body repeatedly, and then...
West Germany's life forms are lower than his own... so there is something that even he can't do.
Just...
"So... I... sealed my memory myself?"
After Chen Nuo frowned and said this, he shook his head: "No! Why?! If I came back to save Lu Xixi, why should I seal my memory?!"
West Germany put away all his expressions and retracted his body into the blood mirror.
His expression became serious.
"First, let's talk about this so-called time travel thing.
Chen Nuo, have you ever thought about one thing, that is...
Why did you travel back to this era and become the Chen Nuo you are now?
And the Chen Nuo you had in your previous life has completely disappeared in this time and space?
Have you ever thought about this question?"
Chen Nuo nodded.
Of course he had thought about it, but he just didn't understand it.
Fortunately, West Germany gave the answer directly.
·
"When your life form has entered the fourth dimension, the height of your life begins to leave the third dimension.
What is the third dimension? It is countless third dimensions under countless time scales with life as the unit.
In other words, compared to the fourth dimension, there are countless third dimensions.
You can understand it as... countless parallel time and space.
Theoretically speaking, when you are a three-dimensional life, there are countless you in countless parallel times and spaces!
And once you become a fourth-dimensional being...
Then, you in the three-dimensional world will disappear.
This is basic understanding.
Life in different dimensions cannot see each other.
It's like, life in the three-dimensional world cannot see two-dimensional life.
Don’t tell me about comic books. They are pseudo-two-dimensional interfaces created by you humans as three-dimensional beings. The characters in comics are pseudo-two-dimensional, not ‘life’.
So, once you jump out of the three dimensions and become a four-dimensional life.
In all three-dimensional worlds where you should exist.
You will disappear completely.
This disappearance is not only physically invisible and intangible, but also the embodiment of your existence, the meaning of your existence, everything about you, completely everything disappears!
It's like the traces of your time in this world have been completely erased.
Therefore, in this timeline era, there will not be a young Chen Yanluo.
Because you who entered the fourth dimension will no longer exist in the third dimension!
Do you understand?"
Chen Nuo frowned and listened: "I probably understand what you mean...but, what do you want to express?"
"A world where you don't exist.
In other words, in an existential sense, no one in this world remembers you or knows you.
No one senses you!
There is no ‘anchor’ for your existence in this world!”
What if you suddenly appeared in the year 2000 as Chen Yanluo?
There is no way to match the ‘reality’ of the three-dimensional world!
To put it simply, if Chen Yanluo appeared in 2000.
Where were you born?
The people you have experienced since childhood, the people you know, your classmates, friends, teachers, relatives...
Every life that should know and perceive you is the ‘anchor’ of your existence in this world!
But the problem is, no more!
Where do these perceptions come from?
You don’t exist in this world! You have jumped out of the three-dimensional world! You have been erased from the three-dimensional world!
We say that the world exists in the cognition and perception of life.
What cannot be recognized and perceived is not real.
You are in the three-dimensional world, and no one can perceive or recognize your original identity, so... you should not exist!
Then, a person who does not exist is equal to being in any time and space and any parallel space.
In any real world, there is no ‘anchor’ that can perceive you!
Therefore, you cannot appear out of thin air.
In other words, you cannot be reborn and go back to the past era and become a younger version of Chen Yanluo.
You can only go back as a person who existed in a past era.
That's the rule.
In other words, for someone like you who has stepped into the fourth dimension.
The first problem to be solved when crossing time is: identity.
Or, to be precise, it’s not about identity, but that you need a carrier that can accommodate your consciousness in this era.
This carrier must be a real existence, existing in other people's cognition, and existing in the perception of this world.
There are enough and many ‘anchors’ to support the ‘real’ existence.
Identity is the first thing to be resolved."
Chen Nuo listened carefully and then nodded: "Since there is number one, there must be number two."
"The second is the time to go back."
Chen Nuo asked: "Can I freely control the time when I go back?
Well, actually the best solution is to go back to when Lu Xixi was a child... before she was selected by the fourth seed!
Shouldn’t everything be solved? This is the simplest and most trouble-free way, right?”
West Germany shook his head: "It's a good idea, but you can't do it."
"……Why?"
"Because Lu Xixi is older than you."
Chen Nuo was stunned.
What the hell is this reason?
I just like people who are older than me!
Why does this become a restriction for time travel?
Are you still being reasonable?!
"Because you are still Chen Yanluo in essence.
Even if you enter the fourth dimension, you are not an omniscient and omnipotent god. In your human terms.
You enter the fourth dimension, which means that with your life as the axis, you can overlook countless three-dimensional spaces.
But this overlook is not infinite.
Suppose you are in the fourth dimension, overlooking the three-dimensional world. We compare this action to you looking through a book.
So for you, the first page of this book cannot be earlier than your birth date!
Do you understand?
However, the time when Lu Xixi became the chosen one was earlier, before you were born.
You cannot go back to a time when your own body was not even born."
Chen Nuo pondered for a while: "Then why is this timeline now? Why did I go back to the end of 2000? Is there anything special about this time?"
"have."
"What's so special?"
"Because this identity is suitable.
Your current identity, this time and space promise, in the original history, at the time you traveled through, would die soon."
Chen Nuo: "What?!"
"On December 23, 2000, Chen Nuo, a student of the No. 8 Middle School in JN District, Jinling City, China, was sent to the hospital due to an accident in the afternoon. During the emergency treatment, a brain tumor ruptured.
Ineffective and dead.”
Chen Nuo was stunned by Xi De's words!
He was surprised for a while, and then... suddenly thought of a question!
"Wait a minute! How could I know this before I traveled back in time?
I mean, when I died in 2021, I had no idea that there was such a Chen Nuo in Jinling who died in 2000! I wouldn’t have known that there was such a suitable identity! Since I didn’t know,
How could I choose him to be my body?!"
West Germany said slowly: "Because of one person."
"one person?"
"Sun Keke. It was from her that you learned that in this world, there once was a young man with the same name as you, who died on December 23, 2000."
Chen Nuo took a deep breath and suppressed the shock in his heart: "Wait...wait a minute, you mean, in my previous life..."
West Germany gave the answer:
"Yes, you knew Sun Keke in your previous life."
Before Chen Nuo could digest this shocking news, West Germany gave the next sentence.
"Sun Keke knew the dead Chen Nuo, so Chen Nuo exists in Sun Keke's perception and cognition.
Therefore, Sun Keke was the ‘anchor’ chosen to be your identity in this world when you traveled through it!”
