Lesson 154 The world of absurdity
No. 76 and her sisters are the work of three alchemists, known as the "Three Sages", and their most satisfying and outstanding achievements. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
At first, due to the difficulty of obtaining recycled metal and other precious alchemy materials, only three alchemy golems in the series were produced, namely No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3.
Later, in order to preserve the last secret of the dynasty, their alchemy puppets of this series were used as the guardians of this half-plane, and the dynasty collected a large number of materials, allowing the three masters to create more puppets in this series.
Based on the three eldest sisters, the three masters and their assistants created a total of 76 alchemy golems, with No. 76 being the latest version and the last one to be produced.
When No. 76 was produced, it had reached the most critical moment of the dynasty, and No. 76 was thrown into this half-plane to act as a guardian without even being installed with an emotional module.
So at first, she didn't understand the strange actions of her sisters.
Obviously she is just an alchemy puppet, but No. 32 likes to drink, and even when the half-plane is working well, she also opens a vineyard by herself, grows high-quality grapes with large and full grains, and makes wine by herself;
No. 16 likes oil paintings, and the Ming Dynasty has a very convenient and fast magic picture retention technology, which can accurately and meticulously depict the picture in one direction in a short time, but No. 16 still likes to add beautiful scenery to the canvas one by one;
No. 66 likes to read, but she is obviously a lively and active guy, and will always pull No. 76 around outside the class, they have climbed mountains, walked through holes, swam rivers, watched the sunrise on the peaks, counted the stars on the grass, No. 66 seems to be a girl who does not know how to study quietly at all;
The sisters' behavior is so strange and incomprehensible in the eyes of Number 76.
In the eyes of No. 76 at the time, as guardians of the outside, it was enough for them to understand the knowledge of combat, and it was a superfluous thing to be emotional.
Emotions dull the sharp sword.
It's like No. 48 and No. 51, in that battle, in the face of the strong attack of that powerful astral monster, No. 48 is no longer able to be rescued, if according to No. 76's judgment, No. 51 should not be in danger to block the fatal blow for No. 48, but seize the opportunity to kill this guy.
But 51 did just that, she got in front of 48, missed the opportunity to kill the monster cleanly, killed both herself and 48, and caused a lot of trouble for the remaining sisters.
But after the battle, the sisters still held a funeral for the two of them with a sad face.
It's as if there's nothing strange about what they're doing, it's supposed to be.
No. 76 feels that the world is incomprehensible, and No. 51 has obviously made a fatal mistake, but all the sisters treat her like a hero.
So No. 76 found No. 3, who was the commander, and told her his judgment, and finally concluded.
"The death of Number 51 is meaningless." Number 76 said.
Then she was slapped hard by No. 3, who was the commander.
"Why be angry? This slap you made no sense, didn't it? ”
No. 76 clearly remembers that at that time, No. 3 did not look at her angrily anymore, but just hugged her into his arms and cried in a low voice.
At that time, she never understood the meaning of what No. 3 had done, and it wasn't until years later that she gradually understood.
The hopeless self really deserves to be beaten!
As the days passed, the environment became more and more harsh.
No. 32 abandons her orchard, no longer brews the liquid that is meaningless in No. 76's eyes, and seals the original brew, only when one of the sisters leaves, No. 32 pours out a little, and then everyone toasts the deceased sister in front of the portrait No. 16 painted.
There are fewer and fewer wines sealed on No. 32, and more and more portraits hanging on No. 16 above the gallery.
Until one day, no one pours wine for everyone, and no one adds new colors to the white canvas.
No. 76 walked through the increasingly dilapidated streets again and again, listening to the sound of his own footsteps around him in the silent space, and felt the taste of loneliness for the first time.
Cities are in ruins, and even carefully processed books are beginning to decay.
In order to pass on the knowledge of the dynasty, she began to read them in the library with No. 66, and memorized them all in her mind.
Technique, magic, sword skills...... As a magical creation, as long as you deliberately remember it, you will not forget it.
In the last days, No. 66 was the one who got along with No. 76 the most.
Unlike No. 76, who looks like a good student who studies hard, No. 66 is always there to read "miscellaneous books", and those dramas full of absurdities are her favorite.
At that time, No. 76 had already understood what emotion was, knew that art was one of people's pursuits, and those so-called miscellaneous books were not meaningless, and many times No. 76 would also selectively read some miscellaneous books.
But No. 76 prefers those realistic adventure biographies, and the literary works full of absurdities that No. 66 loves make No. 76's brain ache when he sees it.
Number 76 remembers that there was once a play with such a plot:
A couple who went through hardships last moment and finally got together, you and me, and love more than Jin Jian, the next moment the boy was killed, and the girl fell in love with the enemy who killed the boy at first sight, and soon lived together happily.
Number 66 does not convince Number 76 with a lot of explanations full of words such as "fantasy and reality", "irony", "pessimism", etc.
76 only knows that an excellent work, before the turn of things, there will inevitably be foreshadowing, and the blunt dramatic emotional turn will only make the audience rush to the stage and beat the actors again.
This kind of illogical thing is like a crappy story written by a third-rate writer, and I really don't understand why it was included in the library here.
Later, No. 76 learned that reason and logic have never been the darlings of this world, and absurdity is the favorite of fate.
The reality is simple and crude, unreasonable, and illogical. This moment is happy, giving you a windfall, and the next moment is happy, making you bankrupt. Everything seems to be a crappy drama, an absurdist novel.
Parting, reunion.
It all came so suddenly!
Obviously, it was only because the magic array in the dungeon was invalid, but the rules could not be abolished, that No. 76 decided to personally test Grimm and them for the first time......
Clearly...... Just a simple thing.
However, when he saw Esther's face under his glasses for the first time, No. 76 subconsciously ran away.
Deserters are spurned, and their cowardice in abandoning their duties is so pathetic in the face of the brave.
But No. 76 still ran away, knowing that Esther only had the same face as No. 66, and they were not the same one, but she still didn't have the courage to face all this.
She flew like a drown in the darkness, hoping nothing more than to escape from this absurd world. (To be continued.) )
