At this moment, Yu Qian already felt that no matter what his partner said, it was not enough for him to waver. The so-called "Sword Pavilion" he originally envisioned was just the product of a high-level power struggle, a powerful department with a high degree of autonomy and a high demand for secrecy. At best, it is nothing more than an irrational product of a deformed system in a particular case.

However, all the information he had heard so far had shattered his values. Centuries ago, terrifying experiments that changed the course of the world, and horrific god-making projects. Even in the past month, he has experienced too many events that have upended his worldview. What came out of Ren Yuan's mouth at this moment still made him feel extremely frightened.

It is precisely because of the experience accumulated in the past month that he has become more deeply aware of what terrible facts these contents represent. Just like Ren Yuan once described to himself, if the Adventist faction tried to control the power of the alien source, it was a bad child who was ignorant and ignorant with a match in the arsenal. Then what this organization is doing is no less than setting fire to an arsenal.

"I think you also have the name of the guilty of deceitful gods, right?" Yu Qian cautiously asked, "Is it referring to this matter?" ”

"Not exactly." Ren Yuan nodded, "I also refer to a lot of things I did after that." ”

"Then you're really great..."Yu Qian's head was covered with cold sweat, "Aren't the gods omniscient and omnipotent?" Could it be that if you abandon Godhead, you will not be able to see through your lies? ”

Of course God is all-knowing and all-powerful, even if he forsook Godhead... At least for us, it should be. I did deceive Him, but my struggle didn't make any sense to Him. Ren Yuan said indifferently

"What did you do?"

"I agreed to the contract, but I didn't fulfill my obligations." Ren Yuan shrugged and said, "What I wanted at that time was just eternal life." Why should I go to the trouble of collecting the stumps that He scattered in his dreams? At that time, I had no other pursuits, and the resurrection of the gods did me no good. ”

"It sounds immoral, but I think you're doing the right thing." Yu Qian nodded and said, "Why doesn't it make sense?" ”

"The individual is powerless to resist the inevitability of history, even if he is immortal. Or it is precisely because I will not die, so I can better appreciate the weight of this sentence, many things cannot be changed by human beings. Ren Yuan sighed, "From my long life, I have learned that the more you want to try to escape your fate, the more you will fall into the quagmire of fate because of all kinds of unbelievable developments." ”

"So... Have you chosen not to be a human being? ”

"It's useless not to be a human being." Ren Yuan looked up at the vast starry sky, "What small and pitiful creatures we are..."

"You just said that the act of god-making happened twice... So even if you didn't intend to keep your covenant with God, you still had a second God-making plan, right? Yu Qian asked thoughtfully

"Yes, the gods erased everyone but me who participated in the first experiment. And, as you say, the seventeenth century was followed by a time when the feudal system and the occult began to crumble and science developed at a high speed. I thought that this matter would be deposited in the dream realm forever and become an unknown history..."Ren Yuan's voice became more and more lonely.

"But the reality is really ironic... The more rapid the development of science and technology, the more eager human attitudes towards the gods became. If we say that the attitude of ancient people towards the gods was awe and fear. Now people's attitude towards the gods is greed and desire. ”

"I think it's just a more objective look at the mysterious events..."Yu Qian whispered

"Pure materialism is as foolish as pure idealism. If the belief that God can do everything is superstition, then the belief that science can do everything is not a superstition? The only difference is that the sculpture that was enshrined on the altar was renamed Science. ”

"So we believe in dialectical materialism, don't we?" Yu Qian said

"So do you think there are a lot of people who can understand dialectical materialism, or do you know a lot about it?" Ren Yuan asked rhetorically

"Ahh

"Conceited, arrogant, without reverence. This is the common nature of people who are at the forefront of this era. Because of the rapid progress of science and technology, the confidence has been inflated ten times this. This arrogant attitude will one day bring destruction. Ren Yuan said with disgust: "The existence of catalysts is not a secret to many large governments. The benefits brought by the reality of alien independence also make greedy people crazy. ”

"The occasion was the two world wars, and governments realized the importance of independent realities in war. However, it doesn't matter if it's a primary catalyst or a derived catalyst. Even at my level of anomalousness, it would hardly have a substantial impact on a large-scale war. Ren Yuan paused and said, "More importantly, the application of independent reality is not only quite restrictive, but its generation itself is also difficult to control. ”

"So the governments that were originally hostile to the Adventists began to reach out to these organizations gradually. Give them shelter and facilities to support their research and rituals, hoping to benefit from them. Who would have thought that the originally suppressed Adventists would develop to the peak during World War II with the strong support of various governments! ”

"Don't these governments realize that this behavior is anti-human!" Yu Qian angrily rebuked: "Many of the experiments of the Advent Sect have to use humans as prototypes, right? The government that did it in World War II... Is it the Na X government? ”

"You would be wrong, as long as you were qualified to participate in the top-level game, it was not clean. Of course, the Nax-X government is more familiar with its actions, especially when the war is in full swing. They didn't even bother to cover up the exteriors when it came to carrying out massacres and providing material for the Adventists. Ren Yuan glanced at his pale partner and smiled, "What, you won't be the kind of naïve guy who believes that this world is black and white, right?" ”

"I'm not that naïve... It's just that I thought that in this kind of thing, if there was still sanity. People can't... At least it shouldn't... Go and try this dangerous act. Yu Qian said hesitantly

"Really? They think people can, at least try. Ren Yuan sneered, "The ultimate in arrogance is madness, and they finally had the idea of controlling the gods. In their view, the gods are just powerful aliens, and if humans can control the power of science, why can't they control the power of the gods? And to be able to control the power of the gods is to control the world. ”

As a result, the organization has revived in another form. It's the same thing that wants to create, but who would have thought that after a few hundred years, even the motivation has changed dramatically. The first time I tried, I wanted to create a guardian for the fantasy world of humanity. However, the second attempt was to enslave the gods! ”

"It's really sad," Yu Qian sighed wordlessly

"The creation of the gods was first conceived by the desperate state of D, but the government of the country D, which was on the verge of defeat, was clearly unable to carry out this huge project. After the end of World War II, the accumulated intelligence of country D was quickly divided and digested by various countries, and the governments of various countries realized that in order to realize this plan, it was necessary to unite the forces of all mankind. Ren Yuan narrated in a cold tone

"I have to say that the progress of human beings is really fast, they have not only found a way to create gods, but also collected the remnants of gods that exist in the illusionary dream realm. And to find out the only survivor of the first god-making experiment, I'm tired of eternal life. ”

"The god-making organization that unites the elite of all mankind has been established again, and we have also found two inhumans with independent worlds. Compared to last time, we are more skilled and prepared. And there's me, the Inhuman who participated in the first attempt to create a god. ”

"They got you? You gave them information about the gods? Yu Qian frowned and asked

"No, I don't know how the gods were created or where the remnants of the gods were. In the first God-making project, I was just a small character. Ren Yuan shook his head and said, "However, in the matter of resurrecting the gods, I did choose to cooperate with them, as an alien who had made a contract with the gods, my role is very important." I've tried all the tricks for centuries and couldn't die, and my last hope is to resurrect the gods and end the curse. At least I really wanted to resurrect the gods. ”

"Since you didn't tell them, how did they know? Could it be that there are survivors other than you in the first god-making experiment? Yu Qian asked puzzled

"And who told them about the first god-making experiment?" Ren Yuan asked indifferently

"Ahh

"You all think that Inhumans are scary and dangerous, and that they are walking non-natural disasters. But in my opinion, human beings are the most terrifying beings. Endless desires bring endless disasters..."Ren Yuan said softly, "I am still a human being, greedily pursuing eternal life, and committing countless unforgivable sins. Even disregarding the safety of the whole world, he deceived the gods into agreeing to a contract that would cause endless harm. And after falling to the point where he is no longer human, he is just a waste that he can't get if he wants to die. ”

"At that time, you had no other way but to agree..."Yu Qian comforted softly

"Do you know why I said that as long as there is still a shred of conscience, no one will become an alien?" Ren Yuan turned his face with a chilling sneer, "It's because at that time, I would definitely make this contract for the sake of eternal life." That's why I'm the one chosen by the gods. ”

"Old fish, you're a criminal policeman, right? You must have seen a lot of heinous criminals, right? After they are caught, most of them will cry bitterly and say that they committed the crime out of necessity and forced by the environment, right? Ren Yuan said contemptuously, "But in fact, there are many people who are in a worse environment than them, and they don't make the choice to commit a crime in the end, right?" No matter how bad the environment is, the person who commits the crime must be the one who wants to commit the crime. If there is an environment that will definitely give birth to sinners, then how can there be no environment that will definitely give birth to saints? Why are there so many criminals and so few saints? ”

Yu Qian understood that the guy standing in front of him didn't need this kind of meaningless comfort at all. Shaking his head, he smiled bitterly for a moment and said, "What about later?" Since you are still alive, it means that the second god-making experiment was also unsuccessful? ”

"In terms of results, we didn't fail. And the experiment is still ongoing. Ren Yuan said heavily

"Still in progress?" Yu Qian was no longer shocked now, and just asked mechanically, "What do you mean?" ”

"You started with a question to ask what the 'Sword Pavilion' is, right?" Ren Yuan suddenly changed the topic and asked

"Ah, that's right." Yu Qian replied in amazement

"You've learned about the two god-making experiments, now." Ren Yuan said leisurely, "I can tell you what the Sword Pavilion is and why..."

"I'll be called, the body of a false god."
