Chapter Twenty-Eight: Your Interest
"The world you see? Hehe......" Hannibal suddenly smiled: "That sounds really arrogant, then, what are you?" ”
Hannibal asked the question again.
Ziliang shook his head: "I said, you won't understand, after all, you have no way to understand what this universe is really like, if you use your current understanding ability, I belong to a part of this world, of course, it was once, and now, I am just a human being, and in some ways I am even inferior to you...... At least you don't lose sleep. ”
"You can talk about it, after all, you've only seen me a few times, how do you know I can't understand?" Hannibal said lightly.
"It doesn't need to know much about you, life between each dimension can naturally only know the rules of its own latitude, so the answer is right in front of you, and you can't believe it."
"For example?"
"For example...... This ......"
Ziliang said, turning around and pulling back the curtain behind him......
At this moment, Hannibal was stunned, he stood there in a daze, looking out the window at the empty world, and after a long time......
"...... this?"
He reflexively wanted to ask, 'Where is this?' But he didn't ask when the words came to his lips, because he knew that even if Ziliang said something, he couldn't understand what that word meant. There was not even such a word in the world, after all, he could not imagine what kind of words people would use to describe everything outside the window......
"This is the Realm of the Void." Ziliang's voice dragged Hannibal's thoughts back: "A long time ago, people thought about what was outside this world, and they couldn't imagine it, so they used this word to describe this place casually, although it is not so appropriate, but I am used to calling it that...... After all, I used to float here...... So long......"
Hannibal looked at Ziliang, he was a psychiatrist, and he could easily hear what was going on in everyone's tone, so Hannibal clearly felt that Ziliang was talking about the three words "so long...... It definitely represents an incomparably long time, long beyond his imagination.
So Hannibal suddenly shook his head helplessly.
"That's true." He said, "...... I have studied theology since I was very young, not only the Divine Comedy, but also the Burden and the Charisma, and even all the books of Odingus, and I have always felt that if I want to find out what the world really is, theology is more practical than science, which is why I gave up medicine and delved into the world of the human spirit......
I now understand why you interrupted me while I was reciting the Purgatory of the Divine Comedy...... It seems that you have known for a long time that no matter how much human beings try to imagine the true face of this world, it will be useless...... Because we can't imagine a world beyond our understanding, even if we look at it, we have to pay with our lives, just like me. ”
"No...... The reason why you give your life is because you only have life. Ziliang corrected: "But if you have more chips, then you can be more powerful, and you can understand this universe more deeply..... You can even kick its ass! ”
"Kick its ass...... What do you mean? Hannibal hesitated for a moment before asking.
"It's literal, I once kicked it, of course, my fate was not good" Ziliang said and measured himself miserably: "Of course, in addition to the literal meaning, there is a deeper meaning, that is, you are not ordinary, you are a 'sin fragment'...... It's still B-grade. ”
"Shards of Sin?"
"Yes, that's the word, this universe is made up of all kinds of elements, not just light, time, weight, these things that can be measured, and many other things that cannot be crossed...... For example, there is such a thing as 'sin', of course, you don't want to dig into whether this kind of secondary two statement is reliable or not, in short, you just need to know that you are different from ordinary people......"
"Huh...... With all that said, I seem to know what you're trying to say. Hannibal smiled and looked at Ziliang: "I remember you said before that you wanted me to join your team, right?" ”
Ziliang shrugged his shoulders and signaled that this was the case.
"Sure enough......" Hannibal nodded, "I can't understand your existence yet, but you should be something like some kind of higher will, so following a being like a 'god' seems to be a gift that all theological students dream of." ”
Hannibal said, then smiled slightly: "But I'm really sorry, I'm not interested......"
It will be Ziliang's turn to be stunned for a moment, he feels that his set of rhetoric just now is more solid than that of many religious leaders.
"It seems that you are surprised...... Hannibal said lightly, and the emotions of Ziliang at that moment just now really did not escape his eyes: "Indeed, in this situation, you are enough to deceive anyone...... But as I said, you don't know me, just like you don't know what I'm studying theology for...... Hehe, I'm not worshipping them, on the contrary, I'm just looking for something inferior to me......
All the people are saying that I am a demon with no humanity because I eat people...... I never contradicted them, because they were so arrogant, and they kept thinking that I was eating my own kind.
No, I just happen to be stored in a human body, just like you.
What I seek is enjoyment and aesthetics, I take knowledge, communicate with them, explore their hidden stories in the deepest part of my heart, and eat them...... To be honest, it was just instinct, so I don't think there's anything appealing to you about you......
And what you say about it, what the world really looks like...... To be honest, if that's what you let me see, then what I see doesn't have any meaning, and the most important thing to interpret a world is to enjoy the process of interpreting it, just like the pursuit of food is not just for the taste of the moment when you eat it, but the whole cooking process.
As for what makes me stronger enough to finally go and kick the ass of this universe or something, haha, please forgive me for not being a rude person, I'm not interested in those. ”
Hannibal said, even when he laughed, he could still clearly feel the gentleness, elegance, but rejection of people thousands of miles away.
"No, I know, you're at least interested in one thing......" Ziliang said suddenly.
"Really? Let's talk about it. ”
"You want to eat me!"
Ziliang said, with a hint of a victor's smile on the corner of his mouth......
