247. The meaning of existence

"When you think about the meaning of existence, the first question that comes to your mind is – how did I come to be?"

In the game's setting, ghosts have no expressions. But when Bian Ziyuan heard the smile in its voice, he unconsciously imagined the ghost's smiling face, and he couldn't help but get goosebumps on his body.

"You were created!"

The ghost's words shook Kronos's body, and it also shook Bian Ziyuan's heart. Of course, Bian Ziyuan knew that Kronos was created, but he always felt that the ghost was not saying this to Kronos alone.

"Everything in the world is created, and everything that exists is a need for slavery." The ghost continued, "Take the world you live in, a blacksmith crafts a sword to kill, a sword exists to kill, it is a tool of human enslavement. You may say that the sword has no life, but this is only your superficial perception. Now that you have realized that there is a world beyond this world, then you should be able to understand," the ghost smiled and glanced at the butterflies in the deep space, "In the eyes of people in some worlds, neither you nor I may be alive. ”

The ghost's eyes fell on Bian Ziyuan's eyes through the frequency curtain, making him shudder.

Kronos was created by him. Of course, he thought that Kronos was intelligent, but he never regarded Kronos as a life. So who created humans? Didn't the guy who created humanity never see humanity as a human being?

The ghost then said, "You are the master of this world, and you can create everything. With a wave of your hand, you can kill a ghost, and with a wave of your hand, you can recreate a ghost. But what did the ghost you created live for? Cannibalism in order to strengthen yourself? No! It has no intention of coming into this world, and it has no idea why it came, it is just a tool you have created to hinder adventurers' exploration. ”

"Think about yourself again! Where are you from? The ghost pointed to the butterfly in the deep space and said, "You are also a tool created by others!" Your existence is the result of being enslaved by the people who created you! ”

The ghost's voice grew louder and sharper, making Bian Ziyuan's ears very uncomfortable, but even more uncomfortable was his heart.

"All existence arises from slavery, and is the result of slavery! The meaning of all existence is given by the person who created it! You, me, him...... Everything that exists in this world has been created and used for enslavement......"

"No!" Kronos cried out in pain while holding his head, "If no one can escape the fate of enslavement, then what's the point of you discussing the meaning of existence?" ”

"Well said!" The ghost circled Kronos and the butterflies of deep space, like a dancer in the gloomy wind of the canyon, but with a terrifying face.

"What is the point of existence if all existence cannot escape the fate of enslavement! Let me tell you right now that the fundamental meaning of existence is to rebel against slavery! ”

The ghost's words exploded like a bomb in Bianzi's ears. For a moment, his thoughts came to a standstill, chaotic, and his mind was like an ocean of currents, surging and crashing violently and surgingly.

How many times in the dead of night, he looked up at the starry sky, thinking about the origin of the world, the mission of mankind, the pinnacle of science, the nature of the universe, which attracted him like a huge black hole with infinite gravity.

However, the truth may be brutal. Could our seemingly mysterious-like world be just a game, like Cronos's world? It's just that this game is bigger and more complex, and human beings are just Cronos-like beings in this game, and human intelligence was created by God in order to expand and correct the game itself?

So, when human beings learn to ask themselves "what is the meaning of existence", does it mean that human beings have begun to break away from God's control in some way?

While Bian Ziyuan was pondering, Kronos stood expressionless and fixedly, and even the air around him seemed to condense. There was clear wind in the canyon, and Kronos's clothes and hair were not moving, like a statue.

Bian Ziyuan knew that the intelligent NP he created must have been shocked more than him at the moment.

Although the philosophical conjecture that existence stems from slavery reminds Bian Ziyuan of many questions that he had not thought about in the past, God is far away after all, and the universe is much larger than the game world. And the god who created Kronos stood right before him, incarnated as a ranger named the butterfly of deep space.

One can imagine what kind of mood Kronos is in at this moment.

A ghost ran out and said to the god of the game world that the down-and-out ranger who chased you with space-time spells all day long and asked you to equip was actually the master who created you. It's like a mouse suddenly jumping out of the gutter and saying to a person that the cat you have that sells you cute food every day is the embodiment of God.

Bian Ziyuan couldn't help but think that in many myths and legends in the past, immortals turned into humans and frolicked in the mortal dust, could it be that God was playing the game as a player?

So where is God at this moment? He couldn't help but look at the ghost next to him again.

The ghost stopped talking, as if waiting for Kronos' enlightenment. Bian Ziyuan was worried that Kronos would be angry and a group would be annihilated and the entire game data would be destroyed. And today, Kronos's intelligence performance even made Bian Ziyuan suspect that he had more powerful spells that he had never cast, such as destroying the source code of the program or something.

Fortunately, Kronoske restrained and seemed to accept his fate. He let out a long sigh and said, "Ghost, what you're saying is still hard for me to understand, and it will take longer to digest. But tell me, if the purpose of my existence is to rebel against slavery, how can I resist? ”

Bian Ziyuan is also curious about the answer to this question, how can an NP in a game, even if it is an NP with a certain intelligence, resist the developer of the program? It's like having a character rebel against the author, and a sword against a blacksmith or knight.

The ghost said, "Kronos, you already know that the butterfly in the deep space standing in front of you is the incarnation of the god who created you, right?" ”

"I should have guessed it a long time ago." Kronos nodded, "But since I created it by him, how can I resist?" I have the most powerful spell in the world, I can kill him, I can erase all traces of his existence, I can turn back time and turn the world back in time, but does it work? This deep space butterfly is just his incarnation, he is in another world, a bigger world that can create me. How do I resist? ”

"You're right, but your ideas are too limited!" The ghost paused and suddenly asked, "It is said that in the history of your world, there have been many peasant rebellions against the monarch, and there have also been rebellions of the nobles against the church, right?" ”
