Chapter 20: After the Decision

My name is Yan Shunlu, I am just an ordinary person, and I just want to be an ordinary person and live an ordinary life.

"Goliath~! I'm here, I'm ready to decide. "As soon as I got home, I couldn't wait to go to Goliath and tell him about my decision.

From now on, let's go back to a dull life, and I used to be a dream of Nanke. Maybe it's not even a dream, and when you wake up from a dream, you can't even see this memory.

But Goliath wasn't in the room, only the high-tech instruments were quietly there. Strange, where did the people go?

Forget it, since you're not there, just wait, I'm curious about that pile, but I'm not going to touch it. Because I don't know how to use it, I can't even see a button, which is completely different from the equipment in our society.

It's boring to be stupid, but I don't want to leave, "Maybe he'll be back later?" I thought to myself.

Meditation has become a good way to pass the time, and it can be regarded as a final experience of mental power.

When I finished meditating, Goliath had come back at some point. He looked at me with a relieved expression, "Sure enough, you are very diligent. ”

"I made my decision. I don't want to go, so you clear my memory. I got up and looked at him.

"Okay, now it's time for the rest of your work." Goliath nodded.

"Hey, I said I wouldn't play anymore, and I refused." I raised my voice and said.

"I hear it, not so loudly. Get ready to get trained. ”

"Did you hear me wrong? I refuse, I don't want to join you in what is the crisis of saving the planet. I just want to be an ordinary person and live an ordinary life. "I think I've made it clear enough.

"Yes, I heard you right, you refused." Goliath's expression was serious, without the slightest hint of joking.

"And ...... you?" I was stunned by him again.

"I just gave you the right to choose, but I didn't say that I would accept your choice!" Goliath blinked, his eyes full of cunning.

"What is this? What about playing with me? Interesting? I got angry and yelled at him.

A rush of anger that I had never felt before came over me, and I wanted to scream hoarsely, to greet the female relatives of Goliath, and then to the female relatives of the Atlanteans. I wanted to jump up and smash something, but I still understood what this place was, who I was up against, and finally took control of myself, stood up and threw myself back on the couch again.

Goliath was silent for a moment, "I don't want to do that either, but you're not like them, you don't have a choice." ”

"What do you mean? What do you mean I don't have a choice? And who are they? Anyone else? Why can they choose and I can't? "I'm very unbalanced.

"Sit down and talk, my brother. You can't control your emotions like this, and you can't listen to me. Goliath shook her head and sighed.

I sat down and waited for a while, but he didn't mean to say anything, so I spoke first, "Okay, you can say, I've controlled my emotions." I suppressed the unhappiness in my heart.

"Because you're the chosen one." Goliath's words were so succinct that I just couldn't figure it out.

"Isn't that how they were all chosen? What's the difference? "I said angrily.

"No, the others were selected over a frequency range and did not go through spatial screening. You are the designated frequency, and you are the first person to come to my room through the previous space. He said with a blank face.

"What does that mean? I was lucky in the first space, and you guided me in the second space. Don't tell me that luck is part of strength. "I don't give me any face.

"It's not luck, the first space is called silence, and only those who overcome their inner fears can pass through; The second space is called the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and all those who come to this space will be guided, and the mirror wall is the test, and only those who have the beginning of their minds and have a certain potential can pass through to reach me, otherwise they will go to other rooms. The third space is the initial training for all. Goliath leaned forward slightly, looked at me, and said.

"I'm scared too, but as long as it lasts a long time, I will become numb and start to get used to it." I'm very disdainful, all adaptation has a process, and time is the best medicine.

"That's right, there are not many people who can pass through silence, provided that there is no limit to the number of times. We will face war, and the sooner we calm down and adapt on the battlefield, the more people will survive. We set the number of times to be three, and you just passed. ”

“sh*t!” I burst into a foul mouth, I don't know if this is good luck or what? Almost, if I don't pass three times, then I will be classified as the kind of person who can choose independently, and then I can choose NO, be an ordinary person, live a life of firewood, rice, oil and salt, eat and wait for death. But now, I have no choice but to go to space to fight a group of aliens who have appeared out of nowhere.

"What if I insist?" Still unrelenting, I asked with the last glimmer of hope.

"Everyone has a predestined fate, and the peculiarities of your consciousness frequency are destined to be involved, and there is no way to choose to refuse or give up. Even if you don't participate, your consciousness will appear on the battlefield, and once your consciousness is destroyed, your body will be brain dead, if you're lucky, you'll be ......" He paused, looked at me playfully, and continued, "Vegetative." ”

I'm speechless, everyone will have a moment to stand up without hesitation, maybe because of love, maybe because of national affection, maybe because of righteousness~ and I have no choice. If you go, you will die nine times, and if you don't go, you will die ten times without life.

"Tell me, how to arrange me." So far, I'm just going to bite the bullet.

"There is still some time between now and you will be trained and then join others in the coming crisis." Goliath said coldly.

It seems that this time it is really a point of no return, I thought to myself.

"Anyone else, you say?" I looked around and it was just me and Goliath in the room, and there was no third sign of life.

"Of course there are others! But not here, you'll see them then. "Goliath's tone of course makes me look like I'm an idiot." Wars can be caused by one person, but wars are never fought by just a few people. Advances in technology have made warfare more brutal, and a few nuclear explosions can kill most of life on land. ”

"In order to survive, come on." Goliath's encouragement didn't lift my spirits, but made me feel even more hopeless.

"In 30 days, you will be able to see your comrades." Goliath gestured his finger and said.

At this time, I only felt helpless, I would be skeptical of his words, but I didn't dare to try life, life is precious only once, life is beautiful, I want to live!

"How?" I asked plainly.

"Practice, further develop your brain and improve your mental power. Then I'll use telekinesis to send what you're going to learn directly into your mind. Right now your brain can't accept so much stuff that it will just stop your brain from functioning. Goliath got up with that.

"This is how you pass on your knowledge?"

"Yes, usually we complete the transmission of knowledge at the rite of passage. There will be exceptions in some cases, and geniuses will always be treated preferentially. He said with a smug face.

"You're one of the exceptions?" Seeing his smugness, I asked tentatively.

"We Atlanteans usually do this ritual at the age of 15, and I am 10." Although he became expressionless, the smug in his voice was palpable.

"If you want to show me that you're a genius, okay, you did. But if I want to worship, that's impossible. I rolled his eyes back.

"Through the inheritance, we Atlanteans can initially have the same level of wisdom as your experts and professors, and as we continue to absorb the inheritance, our wisdom will continue to improve. Some of these geniuses will also receive more knowledge inheritance. And you will have the possibility to accept all my knowledge. ”

"Legacy? I don't think I'm a genius. Leave this precious wisdom to the true geniuses. ”

"Whether it's you, or someone else, someone has to get this inheritance." Goliath said meaningfully.

"As long as it's not me, anyone can do it. It's too heavy, I'm just an ordinary person, I want to live an ordinary life, and now being involved in this inexplicable crisis of saving the planet is enough for me. You haven't explained exactly what kind of crisis it is, aliens? What kind of aliens? Where did it come from? What does it look like? "My questions came up one after another.

"We don't know exactly what they look like?" Goliath's answer surprised me.

"And how did you find them? How to determine their purpose? "I was even more confused.

"I'll tell you when your cultivation is over, I don't have to come here for this time, I have something to leave. Someone will come to you, and you can inject your telekinesis into the crystal, and I left something in it. "Goliath didn't give me an answer.

He's always chattered like this, but it's not surprising, a thought Atlantis is mysterious enough, and it doesn't become so strange to say something strange.
