"You know what they call me, right?" The "prisoner" who turned into a middle-aged man in prison uniform pointed to the twelve "balls of light" suspended beside him and asked, "They call me 'prisoner'." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"If I want, of course I can get out of the shackles here, and this civilization will no longer be able to catch up with me," the middle-aged man shook the handcuffs on his hands, "but what's the point of that?" Now my appearance, the state of captivity, is all just a shadow cast from the high-dimensional world, the real [me] cannot be imprisoned by the three-dimensional world, what is imprisoned is the projection of [me] here. ”

"For the three-dimensional world, I am detached, I am the [Maintainer of Time Order], I can 'set things right', I have extremely high authority, compared to the three-dimensional creatures who think they have free will, I am one level higher." The middle-aged man sighed, "But do I really have freedom?" No matter how eternal I am, no matter how detached I am, I am still really just a 'prisoner', a 'prisoner of time'! ”

"Didn't I just make an analogy with you using computer software? Since that analogy will help you understand, I'll move on. The middle-aged man said, "I am the 'self-check applet' in the background of the software, originally, as a 'program', I only need to complete my tasks according to the set parameters, I don't need anything too high, too complex wisdom, in the beginning, I am indeed like a low-level artificial intelligence, just mechanically performing my own tasks, day after day to check the endless planes in the entire three-dimensional world, their respective developments, whether they are on the 'right' track. ”

"Countless years passed, and suddenly one day, I felt extremely tired, a strong emotion, the first and strongest emotional swing in my memory. In human terms, 'puppets suddenly have emotions', I'm tired of my 'work', and if I want to be a 'puppet' forever, I just have more self-awareness. And after having more consciousness and feelings, looking at countless three-dimensional creatures who are 'involuntarily', although the fate of each of them has long been doomed in my eyes, I can see those sad, happy, kind, cruel, and the joys and sorrows of their lives, all of which are reflected in my eyes. However, they don't know it, so they live comfortably. ”

"You know what was the cruelest thing to me? Although I am nominally the [maintainer of the time order], there are really few things I can do, I mentioned to you before, since the birth of this three-dimensional world, you are the only existence that will cause the timeline to go to a fork, so the most I do is to observe and observe, except for calibrating the plane time, the rest of the time is basically idle. ”

"The more I look at those three-dimensional creatures, the more I envy them, envy them for being so carefree, envy them for being so ignorant, and sometimes, I wish I was one of them, even if I lose this eternal life, even if I can only live for a short time!"

"So, one day, I couldn't stand it anymore, I decided to find the strongest person in the three-dimensional world at that time, that is, the master of this super civilization, I want to tell him the secret of time, I want to destroy my 'work' to the greatest extent, in that case, maybe I will be punished, will be erased consciousness? Erase feelings? Or just be reduced to nothingness, it doesn't matter, for me, there's nothing more tormenting to me than continuing to do something [Time Order Maintainer]. ”

"You know what happened next, I failed, I really can't escape my fate no matter what, I'm actually the same as all three-dimensional creatures - there is no freedom!"

The "prisoner" gives a very "personalized" reason, which is said with emotion, whether it is true or false, it is impossible to distinguish for the time being, but at least it can be justified.

"Now that I've come to this point, I'll just tell you everything I can tell you!" The prisoner paused for a moment, and then continued: "The affairs of the high-dimensional world are very complicated, and it is difficult for you to understand them now, so I will start with a simple one!" The master of this civilization that I have mentioned many times, I will tell you a little bit about him first! ”

"In the original timeline, in the distant future, this declining super technological civilization awakened their master because they found a clue to a four-dimensional creature, and their master finally reached the four-dimensional world because of that four-dimensional creature."

"You may wonder: Isn't it said that all three-dimensional creatures that are good cannot transcend the jurisdiction of the 'timeline'? How can anyone still ascend to the next dimension? Ascended to a higher dimension, won't the 'timeline' of the three-dimensional world be able to control him? The prisoner paused, "Yes, after the ascension, he no longer belongs to the jurisdiction of the three-dimensional timeline, but the four-dimensional timeline, but, after all, for the three-dimensional world, he is detached. ”

"Do you know why this is happening? Why is there such a 'fish that slips through the net'? Because originally, the master of this super civilization is the only existence in this three-dimensional world that can be ascensed! In your words, this guy has a 'protagonist aura', and he is the only 'protagonist' in this three-dimensional world. ”

"Like all three-dimensional creatures, at the beginning, this 'protagonist' was just an ordinary projection of the high-dimensional world in the three-dimensional world, so why should he be the only one who can transcend it? Also, what does it mean to ascend? The prisoner paused, "I'll answer the latter question first, and I'll use your earthly things as an example. ”

"There's an architect on the planet who is going to design a building, and before he can design it, he has to think about it before he can draw it on a piece of paper, right? After a few days of conception, the designer begins to draw a sketch, and the first straight line he draws can be seen as a one-dimensional, and at this moment, the 'building' is upgraded to a dimension, and then, after a few days, the sketch of the design is completed and becomes a complex plane shape. The sketch has been revised several times, more and more perfect, more and more reasonable, although it has not been upgraded, but it has completed the improvement of quality, just like the master of this super civilization in the three-dimensional world all the way to grow; finally, the workers according to the final design drawings, it will be built, that is to say, the "building" has broken through the two-dimensional, officially came to the three-dimensional world where the designer himself is! From 0 dimensions, all the way up to 3 dimensions! (To be continued.) )
