1703 Slightly embarrassed
The Gray Mist Dome was suspended in the darkness, and a great presence poked out from the depths of the darkness. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoNo one can tell which direction it came from, no one can tell its trajectory, and no one can say which part of it "probed" it. Takakawa only felt that the huge existence that could be felt now was only a part of a larger existence—and it was also impossible to say what the proportion was.
Such a behemoth naturally has a suffocating pressure, and Takagawa felt that the only church left in the darkness, where he and the Whisperers were located, was also trembling, as if as long as the behemoth made a slightly larger movement, this church would instantly disintegrate like the previous church. At this time, Gao Chuan also realized a little that this behemoth in the darkness may not belong to the New Century Gospel at all, but a third party who suddenly broke in from somewhere else.
The question is, what is this darkness? It's so boundless, it's unbelievable to say it's matter, it's not the universe. Gao Chuan knows very well that in the apocalyptic illusion, people can't deeply perceive what is just common sense that exists, and it does exist, but it is not rigorous. For example, "the universe" is the only way to see the existence that you can understand when you look up at the starry sky and participate in scientific observations. This also means that in the apocalyptic illusion, no one will fly out of the universe, no one will measure the values of the universe that they cannot know, and even everything that involves theory will only exist when people "know".
In short, theoretically, in the apocalyptic illusion, what the doomsday syndrome sufferer cannot understand, has no relevant common sense, and has no further cognition, is objectively non-existent.
The contradiction is that these things, which should not exist, do exist, and are called mysterious.
This contradiction also proves that there is something that does not belong to human beings in a world that is based on the personality of a person with doomsday syndrome.
The infinite darkness in front of him naturally cannot be recognized from the perspective of objective matter, and the behemoth in the darkness is not something that belongs to human beings - Gao Chuan quickly got the answer in the inherent logic of the mysterious expert: when diving into the nesting layer of this deepest night layer by layer, it is also a process of transition from the material level to the spiritual level, where he is, his own observation of himself, although he habitually recognizes it from the perspective of materiality, but what he observes is actually not material for a long time, Rather, it is a phenomenon that is biased towards the spiritual level.
So, am I actually in some kind of state of consciousness now? Gao Chuan thought so, and the hideous corner of that behemoth made him have a further guess: perhaps, he was in the collective subconscious of mankind.
If the collective human subconscious is compared to the sea, then, the deeper you dive, the more dangerous it is, Takakawa uses perception to depict this formless dark monster, its sense of existence is so strong that it cannot appear on the surface of the collective human subconscious, the reason is simple, the closer it is to the surface, the greater its impact on the consciousness of all mankind. If it is on the surface, then the collective behavior of human beings should be more and more evident in its qualities.
"No, it's on the surface." A voice suddenly sounded from behind Gao Chuan.
Gao Chuan turned back suddenly, only to see the leader of the New Century Gospel, the mysterious Gothic girl, still dressed in a Gothic dress, carrying a scarlet parasol and sitting on the back of the last row of benches. But it wasn't so much the thin backrest that held her up, but rather that she was floating there, gently next to the backrest, and behind her, after the singing, it was as if the cultists had lost their souls and turned into dolls—their hair, their clothes, their skin—and the whole silhouette seemed to be made of white ash, which was definitely not a normal performance.
Gao Chuan didn't notice where the goth girl appeared, nor did he notice when these disciples turned into this white and gray appearance, obviously he was monitoring the movements around him with chain judgments all the time. It's like the frame that represents the "process" is completely gone.
The Goth Maiden's gaze withdrew from the darkness outside the door and fell on Takakawa's face again. Gao Chuan only felt that the efficiency of the brain and hardware had dropped by several percentage points, and that was because he saw the expression on the face of the goth girl—the first time he saw this expression, he was not sure from the beginning, this strange thing did not know if it was still a human being, whether it still had a human expression.
The corners of the goth girl's mouth curled slightly, and it could be said that it was a "smile" when placed on someone else, but Takakawa couldn't conclude that "she was laughing". In the final analysis, although this smiling appearance is not fake, it is extremely contradictory when placed on her body, compared with her strange sense of existence.
Just from the outside, such a beautiful girl smiling should make people feel relaxed and happy. However, Gao Chuan did not feel this way at all, and the reduction in the efficiency of the brain and hardware was by no means just a description, and the reason for the reduction in efficiency was definitely not "affected by emotions". As an important part of protecting, observing, and containing the information received by Gao Chuan, the brain and hardware will affect its work efficiency, except for the orders of a few people, there is only a mysterious power, and it must also be a highly mysterious power.
The Goth Girl just made a "smile" expression, and her own mysterious divergence had already begun to interfere with the operation of the brain and hardware - this is the conclusion that Takakawa has reached rationally, and this is not good news. The last time I saw her, Takakawa didn't feel that her presence and mystery had reached such a point.
But this is the deepest night, if it were on her turf...... With the geographical advantage, has the mystery been greatly strengthened? Takakawa had to think so.
"You're doing something that collaborators shouldn't be doing." Although Takakawa knew that it was useless, he still said so.
"Everything I do, it's all about better collaboration." The goth girl's gaze crossed over the faces of Sakiya, Hachikei, Shirai, and Morino one by one, and said to Takakawa, "I just think that you should know what the real them are like." But, you seem to have known for a long time, that the real ones are like this. ”
Takakawa naturally understood what the goth girl was talking about. As he had guessed before, the behavior of the four people, including Sakiya and Hakkei, at this time was not due to the fact that their souls were taken away or their spirits were interfered with, but simply that their personalities were showing certain pathologies unique to "mental patients in the reality of the hospital".
All patients with doomsday syndrome are not always active after a split personality, and their mental state is not always in a manic state.
For example, Sakiya, Hakkei, and Marceau, whose personalities were completely shattered in the experiment, although they did not become LCL, their bodies and brains were no longer able to reassemble their personalities, and the fragments of the shattered personalities fell into the apocalyptic illusion in an unimaginable way and grew up on their own - this is a figurative statement, and in practical theory, even Dr. Ender's team has not been able to give a complete explanation.
For example, Shiramori and Morino, if they have become LCL, then what they are in front of them is probably the inactive personality that they split out in the LCL state.
And the Gothic girl's statement, to Takakawa's ears, is like saying: only admitting the "hospital reality" is the real reality, and only being in the state of that real reality is the most real state. Therefore, the appearance of the four of Sakiya, Hachikei, Shirai and Morino at this time is their truest appearance, and they have been active in the apocalyptic fantasy all the time, but they are actually false performances.
It is impossible for Takakawa to admit this, because it means that Sakiya, Hakkei, and Marceau in the hospital reality will never have a chance to return to normal: if their personalities in the apocalyptic illusion are false and should not be accepted by them in the hospital reality, then they will only be in that state of broken personality forever in the hospital reality.
In this way, he and the others are trying to find a spiritual integration device and a personality preservation device in the apocalyptic illusion, trying to integrate all the personality and spiritual information of Sakiya, Haksei, and Marceau that appeared in the apocalyptic fantasy, and using the theory of "human completion plan" as a framework, trying to reverse instill them into their bodies that are back in the reality of the hospital, what is the point?
If the real Sakiya, Hachikei, and Marceau in the hospital can still give birth to new personalities by themselves, then it is not a bad thing to give up the personality information in the apocalyptic illusion, but the problem is that in order to allow them to survive in the late stage of doomsday syndrome, Takakawa took the initiative to cooperate with the researchers in the hospital, and did an experiment like drinking doves to quench thirst when the technology was completely immature. In the end, their bodies did survive, but their personalities were equivalent to "death". In the reality of the hospital, they are not normal and incomplete, but they are just the ashes left after the firewood is burned out.
Are they "real" like that, they are lively and jumping in the apocalyptic fantasy, and they have their own thoughts, emotions and personalities, they are all "fake"? Are you kidding! The more angry Takakawa is, the more sad he becomes, and these anger and sadness are not only aimed at the goth girl in front of him, but at himself, including everyone he knows and does not know in this apocalyptic fantasy.
"Are you always so sad? You're always in anger, Takakawa. "I can't really understand why you look at everyone like that, and in your eyes, I'm no different from everyone else." ”
"Yes, there is no difference. You, me, and the others, including the current Sakiya, Hakkei, Shirai, and Morino, are all the same. Gao Chuan's voice calmed down more and more.
"Do you mean that the present me is also false, and the real me, the real you, and the real others are all the same as these whisperers are in the same situation now?" So said the goth girl.
"I don't think there's any difference between falsehood and truth at the level of personality, spirit, consciousness." Takakawa said, "There is only the first, the second, and the third...... The myriad of differences. ”
“…… It seems that you know a lot. The goth girl's expression didn't change at all, as if she had said so much and done so much, just to make Takakawa say such a sentence, "It's been a long time since I last did something unscrupulous, but now I have to do these disgusting things again, it's really rude." ”
Saying this, she waved her scarlet umbrella, and Sakiya, Hakkei, Shirai, and Morino beside Takagawa went limp, and they fell to the ground one after another. In Gao Chuan's perception and the data presented on the retina screen, the life activities of the four people remained normal, and he had a premonition that the people he knew were coming back. Obviously, the goth girl in front of her was satisfied with what Takakawa said, so she interfered with the four of them in some way.
Takakawa was unable to do such a thing, and he had originally planned to only bring the four of them back to the net ball and use Omi's technology, the possibility of a personality preservation device, or a repeater that was essentially a spiritual integration device, and he had reason to believe that there was nothing that the spirit integration device and the personality preservation device could not do in dealing with personality and mental problems. After all, that's something that only exists in the apocalyptic fantasy and proves to a certain extent that the "virus" is also paying attention to.
It is with Omi's help that Takakawa has used two personality preservation devices to deal with Sakuya and Hakkei, and no matter how troublesome their current personality status is, it is possible to go back to the personality state preserved by the personality preservation device. The only tricky thing is that Shirai and Morino can't deal with the two of them in advance because of the lack of personality preservation devices, and if anything happens, there is also a possibility that they will not be able to recover at all.
However, since the Goth Maiden did not do anything desperately, but only regarded the whisperers as bargaining chips, then, before she completely lost her value in her heart, the safety of the four of them naturally had a minimum guarantee. This was Takakawa's idea, and the facts proved it correct.
In the eyes of the goth girl, Gao Chuan is special and precious, just like his value as a "special test subject" in the reality of the hospital. Even if a fake Takakawa falls into her hands now, it can't hide the value of the original Takakawa.
"Anything you want to know, as long as I can answer, I will answer, there is no need to do this kind of thing." Takakawa said to the goth girl.
"No, I don't need to listen to what you have to say. I'll only let you say some things in my own way, and then judge them in my own way. The goth girl said the same straight to the point. (To be continued.) )
