The price Omi has to pay for the operation of the time machine is really unacceptable, even in the current situation, the file is not willing to accept it, even if Omi's "world line" and "world" are different in concept, but in the file view, there is not much difference between the two in terms of actual reality. www.biquge.info It is hard for her to imagine that when the world line in which she exists is destroyed, when all the human beings she knows are burned out like firewood in front of her eyes, what will be at the end of everything disappearing—is it really the hope that Omi said, or is it the most complete rest?

Nor does the file feel that those who have religious beliefs, who believe that things will be reincarnated after their demise, can remain indifferent to their firm beliefs in the face of such a devastating spectacle - no, if you think about it, isn't the situation Omi said to a certain extent in line with the truth of the apocalypse?

The file felt that his thinking began to be confused, the future he was facing had never been confirmed, what he was thinking and looking at was also something that he could not think about and look at, in front of him that he had no way to understand, there was an unknown shroud in darkness, was there something he wanted? Or is there really nothing there? These questions can only be known when you really walk into them. But the fear of not knowing what lies ahead is more liminating than ever – in some cases, one can choose not to move forward, not to enter the cold, dark, unknown world that instinctively terrifies them, but in others, it seems that they have no choice.

The file knew that she had no choice - Omi was like a trap that put a noose on everyone who came into contact with her, and the prey had lost the power to fight back. Just like now, no matter what he says and thinks, it is impossible to shake Omi's plan.

Even so, she still wanted to struggle, even if she knew she couldn't escape.

“…… Are you saying that in today's situation, if we don't use a time machine and actively destroy the world, we will be 100% destroyed along with the world? The file said a little unwillingly: "You have no evidence." ”

"Yes, there is no evidence, and there is no need. Because when the proof is the fact that 'everybody's finished,' happens. When it becomes a fact, then it will no longer have any positive meaning as evidence. Omi said calmly: "We need to take a gamble, file, maybe your luck will give us a better chance of winning." ”

"Gambling?" The file couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said to himself: "I didn't expect to save the world by gambling." Having said that, the excitement and ups and downs before finally calmed down in the face of the facts that she had to face, and in the face of her qualities as a mysterious expert who had experienced a lot of battles.

Fear, despair, bad premonitions, inappropriateness, doubts and other sensibilities are undeniably present in her heart, but just like the bad situations faced in the past, the current situation is also equivalent to a "critical moment of mysterious events", and such an analogy makes reason unbelievably calm down.

Seeking a non-worst-case outcome beyond the worst that can be calculated is something that every occult expert would try to do.

"I see." The file took a few deep breaths and asked, "That said, I'll have no problem participating in the Time Machine program, right?" But wouldn't it be strange that I still wouldn't want to turn everyone here into firewood if I could—the time machine would need to destroy the world? ”

"It's not the world, it's the world line," Omi argued, but after a pause, she added, "Well, perhaps, it's not an exaggeration to say that it's the world, after all, it's ......." The file only feels that his instinctive premonition has come true, and there is only a literal difference between the so-called "world line" and "the world", but in reality, only for the people of this world, the two are almost equal.

This means --

It makes no difference whether the Third World War is won by Shinrikyo or by the Nazis, or by the United Nations. No, it should be said that except for the Doomsday Shinrikyo cult, which can probably still be on the winning side in a sense, everyone else and everyone else is a loser.

This is because the trap of "Omi" is likely to destroy the world faster than anyone or non-human, more than any conspirator, in accordance with his ideas and methods.

This is a ridiculous end for all those who are interested in preventing the end of the world, who are interested in fighting against all the evil that harms the world, who are interested in saving the world, especially the Cyberball itself, and the occult experts who have always fought against the Doomsday Shinrikyo. Tens of thousands of people will be burned like firewood, this is not the end of the world as speculated by occult experts, nor is it definitely the end of the world predicted by the Doomsday Shinrikyo, nor is it the end of the world predicted by the Internet Ball after several evaluations, nor is it the way the world will enter the end of the world under the natural development.

And Omi - and his accomplices - who have achieved this point have the ultimate goal of "to deal with a terrible monster and save the world?" ”

In the file's view, this statement is so contradictory that it is impossible to understand who is ultimately saved and what kind of world it is. But if Omi is not lying, then what does the "monster" in her mouth look like? How powerful will it be? It would be nice if there were smart people here - when she thought so, she immediately denied herself, because her own personal experience had proved how vulnerable "smart people" who were not protected by repeaters were in the face of the impact of repeaters against each other, and the smarter they were, the more dangerous their situation became.

Even now, the file does not dare to let himself think deeply about the problem and make himself "smart".

"What is our enemy, the monster of your mouth?" The file calmed down, and from the information she had access to, there might be some "monsters" that fit Omi's description, the indescribable power, the indescribable contradiction and mystery, all of which made her still guess.

"The monster ...... lurking in the depths of the collective human subconscious," Omi said something that every occult expert knows these days, but then, she continues, "It's just a façade of it." ”

The monster that lurks in the depths of the collective human subconscious is only a manifestation of "it", and this "it" is what the time machine is trying to deal with, but until now, no one knows what kind of thing it is - this is the only thing that the file knows at this moment.

"Really? That's right"" Although I say this, the feeling of filing is not something that can be expressed in words such as "that's it". It's just that she can't even imagine what the "monster in the collective human subconscious" looks like, let alone the deeper nature that exists behind this description.

However, it is precisely because for a mysterious expert like her, "the monster in the collective subconscious of human beings" is not a new piece of information, so the description of "the monster in the collective subconscious of human beings is just a manifestation of it" also makes her feel that the distance between that essential monster and herself is actually not far away.

"Even if the monster in the collective subconscious of human beings is just an appearance, as long as a certain degree of attack is carried out against this appearance, it can also pull out more essential things, right?" Although the file knew that his statement was not worth scrutiny, he couldn't help but say: "As long as we observe it, we have a chance to defeat it, but is it really necessary to destroy the world today?" ”

"You don't understand, it's a very weird and scary thing, like a Dragon Quest game, fight one boss after another in turn, and then fight to the death with the demon king behind the scenes who exposes his true identity - this can't be done." Omi didn't have any irritation, and responded calmly to the file's struggle as always: "According to the plan of the cyberball, hitting the monster in the collective subconscious of mankind is equivalent to destroying the biggest conspiracy of the Doomsday Shinrikyo and saving the world from fire and water. This is a very simple miscalculation of the true face of the enemy, resulting in the wrong idea - even if the plan of the cyberball succeeds, in a limited time, it will destroy the collective human subconscious awakened by the Apocalyptic Shinrikyo head-on, and it will not be able to prevent the end of the world. The cyberball, which has lost this ultimate goal, will collapse even itself in the face of the end of the world as always. ”

"You can tell them, tell them to go off! Let everyone know that the monsters in the collective human subconscious are not yet the ultimate enemy. The file said with some pleading: "Everyone will unite, even if they still have to die in battle, it is more meaningful than being burned like this." ”

“…… It's a pity. Omi stared at the file with a worried expression for a moment before he said, "If you die in that way, the world will still be destroyed, and all the sensual meanings will have no meaning in a world of repeated destruction." ”

The file's worried expression melted into a wry smile again, and she still couldn't understand what Omi was saying. Every word Omi said was very clear and she could understand it, but when they became such a long list, although she could still understand the literal meaning, she felt that there was a deeper meaning behind it, and this deeper meaning was the true meaning of this sentence. I can't understand this true meaning of myself, and I can't understand Omi's current thinking at all.

The file silently covered her face, speechless for a long time, she had tried to save the world and the people she saw, but in the end, she couldn't do anything. She couldn't communicate with anyone, she couldn't communicate with the person in front of her, and she felt extremely lonely and helpless in this huge and deep space.

After a long while, she muffled and said, "Finally, tell me, if you don't use a time machine, if you defeat the monster in the collective subconscious of mankind, will that more terrifying monster appear?" ”

"No, it won't." Omi replied without hesitation, "Because, even if the monster in the collective subconscious of humanity is only a manifestation of it, even if it is defeated by humans, the end of the world will come as scheduled - no, what is even more terrifying is that maybe the battle between humanity and this appearance of it, whether it wins or loses, is already in its script." It simply did not have to appear. ”

"In other words, the battles of our people today are only part of its script?" The file seemed to understand somewhat: "Can't refute...... Many occult experts can feel that all their actions, whether they are benign or malicious, no matter how they choose, seem to be pushing the end of the world. In this stage play, there is really no need for the script writer to play. So, how can you be sure that the time machine isn't part of its playbook? ”

"Because, through the time machine, we will turn the world into what we want it to be - not a perfect world, but a cage for it, and this great change is a conspiracy to force it to enter this cage and fight us to the death." Omi explains, "Since the world today is driven by its script, it means that it wants the world to be the way it is - so we don't want the world to be like this, and now that the world is like this, then destroy it and start from scratch a different world than it intended." We have a contradiction with it, the time machine, which will expose this contradiction to the sun, the time machine, so that we can openly provoke it. ”

"Provocation, provocation?" The file raised its head incredulously, Omi drove the time machine at the cost of destroying the world and destroying humanity, just to complete a provocation?

"Yes, strictly speaking, in essence, what we do is to provoke, to unabashedly weave a cage in front of it, to bite it like an ant, to make it angry, to let it catch up, to enter this cage that is actually extremely fragile. It doesn't matter if this cage can trap it or not, what matters is that it really stands in front of us and gives us the opportunity to attack it. The victory rate of the brave against the evil dragon may be very low, but if the evil dragon is so strong that he can kill the brave without coming forward, letting the evil dragon appear is the only key to victory. ”

Omi's description made the file feel an indescribable terror coming from the darkness, and the "monster" in Omi's mouth seemed to have penetrated the void and existed around him, and in a posture that he could not observe, he had been watching him all the time—and it was only at this moment that he felt the terrifying wriggling gaze.
