Final Chapter: Afterword
Huaxia, in a research institute.
A little girl of seven or eight years old, sitting on the balcony, holding a book in her hand, the cover of the book is very old, with several seal characters written on it, called: Ragnarok!
The little girl flipped through quietly, and when she finished reading the last page, she couldn't help but be infected by the story in the book, and sighed lightly, and there was a little melancholy and sadness on her little cheeks.
"Shiyu, how is it, is it good-looking?" At this moment, a gentle female voice sounded.
The little girl looked at her mother who walked in, put away her worries, smiled slightly, and said, "It's good-looking, but there are a few questions I don't understand." ”
"yes, let's hear about it." Mother smiled softly.
"The four evil beasts in this story, why are only three written in the end, where did the [Heavenly Dao] evil beast go, with its ability, it should be able to hide in the consciousness of other survivors and survive, as long as there are still people, it can not die." Although the little girl was very young, her thoughts and logic were very clear, and she said: "If it survives, it will definitely not be as seriously injured as the other three evil beasts, and it is so ambitious, it should be able to rule over human beings, wouldn't this break the cycle of reincarnation." ”
The mother smiled slightly and said: "All the people and things in it are actually destined from the beginning, just like the history they saw, in history, the [Heavenly Dao] was sealed, although it is not written who sealed it, but it can be speculated that it should be the three people who crossed the wall." ”
"The one who crosses the wall?"
"Do you remember that when the Heavenly Dao broke through the seal, the one who crossed the wall appeared, and it was described in the story at that time, it was not the slightest surprise, indicating that he had known it for a long time, so it is very likely that they sealed it with their own hands."
"Those who cross the wall shouldn't be able to defeat the [Heavenly Dao], right?"
"Later, it couldn't be beaten, but the three clones bred by the protagonist in it were not affected by the battle, and they were always in the time matrix, and although the [Heavenly Dao] hid quickly, they were still traumatized, if the three people who had grown up crossed the wall had to deal with a seriously injured [Heavenly Dao], it should be possible."
"I see." The little girl understood.
"Is the [Guardian] of the Four Evil Beasts the giant crocodile, and why is it called the Guardian?" The little girl asked again.
"Probably because of its later consciousness awakening from the state of madness, it saw the World Tree and the corpse of faith beside it, so it has been guarding there, so it is called [Guardian], but after all, it was too seriously injured and recovered somewhat, and in the end it was still defeated by the joint attack of those giant god kings."
The little girl wondered, "Why did these giant god kings kill it, don't you know that it is the mount of the king of kings?" ”
"I'll answer that later, along with another question you haven't realized yet." Mother smiled softly.
The little girl knew that she was testing her ability to observe and think, so she snorted unconvinced, and said, "There is no problem that I didn't realize, you just said [faith] corpse?" Is it dead? When I found it, wasn't it dying, and couldn't it recover? ”
The mother smiled slightly and said: "Although it is not explicitly stated in the story, you can judge from the side that if it can recover, the king of kings will help it heal, but no, it means that its injuries are beyond the scope of the king of kings' ability to heal, and it is beyond the limit of its self-healing." ”
The little girl came to her senses and sighed: "This faith is very good, but it is actually so dead, as a monster, but it is so loyal to humans." ”
The mother smiled slightly, touched her hair, and said, "This is life, it can't be fulfilled." ”
"Mother, why did the king of kings reborn before the catastrophe, is it a coincidence, or is it man-made, and what is the point of his rebirth?" The little girl pondered.
"Existence is meaning." Mother smiled and said: "If he hadn't been reborn before the disaster, he wouldn't have so much knowledge of survival, he wouldn't have been able to grow up quickly, and he wouldn't have been able to grow up to the point where he could fight against the disaster, which is probably the meaning of his rebirth, as for whether it's artificial, I don't know, the record is not detailed." ”
"Could it have something to do with the old man who adopted him?"
"I don't know, maybe there is."
"Who's that old man?"
"What do you think?"
The little girl looked at her mother's teasing gaze, snorted, and said, "Not to mention pulling down, the origin of the three evil beasts is there, why didn't you explain the origin of the [Heavenly Dao], according to this story, it was sealed, and then when the next disaster broke out, it broke through the seal again, and then it was sealed again, and so on, so where is its origin?" ”
"There is no origin." Mother smiled and said: "Just like the king of kings, he cultivated himself, arranged everything by himself, and when the next disaster broke out, he 'himself' would treat him as the king of kings, in fact, the structure of this story is not a simple reincarnation and cycle, because there is no past, there is no origin, it seems that this world is dynamic and constantly evolving, but if you look at it from a higher perspective, you will find that this is static and a painting." ”
"I don't understand." The little girl frowned, and the delicate little bridge of her nose furrowed slightly.
The mother smiled and said: "If you have to talk about the origin, it is the ultimate disaster, because all life is born from it, it is the mother of all things, if you look at it as a person, then these stories you see are a painting that happened to this person, a still painting, this kind of stillness is different from the stillness defined by us humans, just like you look at your body, it is still, but you can't see the bacteria on your hands, wriggling." ”
The little girl understood it at a glance, "I know, in fact, these people in the story are the real disasters themselves, and they are also the creators of disasters, no wonder there are ****** [sinners] in it, those sinners may be aware of something, and know that human beings are the scourge, so they will ******, in fact, they are not sinners, they are good people." ”
"Yes, but these sinners are not good people, they can't be defined as 'good people', because they don't have a basic position as 'people', just like many people who think they have good intentions, who see human beings burning, killing, cutting and plundering, destroying nature, they hate human beings, and when they witness human beings harming animals, they think that human beings are sinful, but it is not right." The mother's expression was a little more serious, and she said: "Such an idea can only show that their personality is not sound, and they do not have the consciousness of being a human being, each life has its own life form, just like a carnivore, it will eat meat, it is impossible to eat grass, and it is impossible to eat meat, and those who think that they eat grass are good animals, but they don't know that grass is also alive." ”
"It's just that they have different definitions of life, and if they destroy what they think is life, they think it is destruction, and if they destroy what they don't think is life, they don't realize it. Or, destroying a life they don't love, they will be happy, destroying a life they love, and they will abhor. ”
"But whether you like it or not, hating human beings is a sin, a sound personality without a foundation, and they are not worthy to be an animal, let alone a human being!"
"Every flower and grass we see has its own life, and there is no distinction between high and low life, only the distinction between what we like and what we dislike, each life has its own instinctive way, these sinners can tolerate disasters to destroy their instincts, but they cannot tolerate their own instincts to survive and reproduce, this is the sad part, the greatest thing about us human beings is that we know how to restrain our instincts, we know shame and dignity!"
The little girl understood and nodded heavily, "I see, Mommy." ”
Knowing that she was a smart child, her mother smiled with relief, "Do you still want to know why these sinners realize that humans are viruses, but those four evil beasts don't?" In fact, it's very simple, these evil beasts don't have much interaction with humans, and the [Heavenly Dao] that likes to move their minds the most has been sealed again, and even if the sinners tell those god kings the truth, these god kings can't accept it and can't understand it. ”
"And the sinners can understand, in fact, the sinners arose from the second age, the first sinner, and the strongest sinner, is Gilgamesh, his father is [Doomsday], although he did not awaken the extra-dimensional ability of [Doomsday], but in the genes, after all, the same blood flows, maybe in an accidental dream, or maybe it was a moment of opportunity, his mind is beyond the dimension, he sees the vague ontology of the disaster, and simply understands the existence of the disaster, so he becomes a sinner, he knows that others cannot understand, Therefore, he uses his own methods to tell all kinds of sins of human beings, just like a cult that spreads distorted knowledge like a virus. ”
"Speaking of which, I have to answer your previous question, why is it obviously circular, but the Heavenly Dao does not remember why the disaster broke out, and those giant god kings, including the giant god king 'Ge', have not recognized the king of all kings. In fact, it is said in the story that the king of kings and the catastrophe itself have entered the higher dimension, so they automatically become incomprehensible in the hearts of these survivors, even if they were once familiar with the king of kings, they will not be able to understand him, see him, and hear his voice. ”
"Everything about him will become an incomprehensible blank memory, that's why, Tiandao has witnessed a disaster, and after breaking through the seal, he doesn't know about the disaster, no matter how many times the disaster breaks out, no one will know, because it is a dimension higher than them, even if they experience it and record it with something, they can't understand it, they can't understand it."
"It's like you pick up an ant and let it experience the sky, but when you drop it, it still only knows how to crawl, it still doesn't know that the world has a high level of existence, and it doesn't know that the world is three-dimensional, no matter how many times you throw it, it feels it, it experiences it, but it just can't understand it, and it doesn't know!"
The little girl was stunned: "So, the king of kings will disappear from everyone's memory?" ”
"It's just his face and his voice that disappears, so people know that there is such an existence, but when they think about it, they can't know what kind of form this existence is, whether it's a human form, a spherical form, or an energy form, they can't know, because they can't understand it."
The little girl understood, sighed lightly, and said, "No wonder the king of kings in history taught those giants marksmanship, but the giants can't remember him, obviously he is by their side, but they can't recognize him." ”
"This is the sadness of the difference in life forms."
"Why did the King of Kings not destroy the consciousness of calamity in the end, but gave up his body?" The little girl asked, "If he destroys the consciousness of calamity, wouldn't he be able to stop samsara?" ”
"If the catastrophe is stopped, a new era will be ushered in, and his dead companions will not be able to be resurrected, even if he can create exactly the same, but it will only be a perfect copy." Mother said.
The little girl's eyes widened and said, "You mean, he chose to give up himself and gain the trust of the disaster, just hoping to enter reincarnation again, so that the next self can cherish his life with Heiyue, Fan Xiangyu and his sister?" ”
"That's right."
"However, the next one will be running for disaster, if everything is doomed, he should know that the next self still doesn't know how to cherish the people around him is the most precious."
"Yes, he knows that."
"Do you know this, but do it?"
"I probably hope that even if I don't know how to cherish the people around me next, at least, I can fight side by side again and experience that dark time again."
"Is that so...... the little girl was stunned, "he should know that he can't resurrect the person he loves, so he would rather cycle it again, and want the people around him to appear again." ”
"Hmm."
"He's stupid."
"yes......"
"In other words, since everything is already predestined, then why did the king of the previous kings let him destroy the disaster consciousness, you should know, he won't do that, why do you want to urge him?" The little girl wondered.
The mother sighed lightly, and there was some embarrassment on her face, and said: "Time will change a person's mind, some of your current thoughts, when you grow up, may be gradually changed, maintaining the original intention is the most important, but also the most difficult, maybe over time, when he wakes up, and can't bear to see those partners experience death again, so I want to stop." ”
The little girl didn't seem to understand, which was a bit difficult to understand for her current age.
"The Epoch Divine Throne in here was made by the one who crossed the wall, why is it so magical?" The little girl asked again.
Mother smiled slightly, and said: "Human beings need the Era Divine Throne to break through to the God King, and the existence of the God King is the accumulation of divine particles, among the nine origins of the universe, one is the [Golden Origin], and the Era Divine Throne should be extracted from it, whoever masters this origin can directly become the God King." As for who mastered it, extracted it, and made it into the Era Divine Throne, it is unknown, maybe it was the three people who crossed the wall, or maybe it was other characters who were sealed in history. ”
"Really, it's not clear in this story, it's gone, it's too hasty!" The little girl was very dissatisfied.
Mother smiled and said: "Actually, I let you see this, I want to tell you that you should cherish everything you have, if you use your thoughts to think about the dilemma, although the dilemma will be resolved, but it will come again, only the people who accompany you are the most important." ”
"I see." The little girl is honest.
"Okay, it's not too early, today's experiment is about to begin, do you want to come and have a look, this is an international breakthrough." The mother hugged the little girl off the balcony and said with a smile.
"Hmm!" The little girl nodded excitedly, put the book in her hand on the balcony, and followed her mother out of the room, and suddenly thought of a question, and said: "Mom, why don't the kings and disasters in this book have names? ”
"The book was taken from a museum, it's too old, and it's rubbing, maybe it's not printed, or it's been eroded by the years, and the name has rotted."
"Mother, is what the book says true?"
"Of course not, it's just a story."
"Oh......"
(Finale)
……
……
Whew, it's over completely.
It's very emotional, it's reluctant.
This postscript is a supplement to the ending, the ending was already at the beginning, I thought about it, I wrote it for more than a year, and it was finally over, and I was inexplicably embarrassed, in fact, this is an environmental story, well, don't laugh.
When the ending is written, the announced disaster and reversal of the plot, I believe that all the foreshadowing, basically used, before the ending comes out, some people think it's too hasty, and they think that the big boss hasn't come out yet, and they have to fight a world upside down, most of them seem to be like this, but in fact, I, who knows the result, can't delay it anymore.
No matter how long it drags on, it can only turn over the prehistoric information preserved by the excavated ruins in the story, and then compare the ending, which seems more thoughtful, but in fact, there are a lot of things that can correspond, and if you say it again, you don't need me to write, everyone can guess it, and there is no suspense to see.
This ending, I myself am very satisfied, although everyone has seen a lot of the story of reincarnation, but "Restart" is not a simple reincarnation, create yourself, cultivate yourself, and have no origin of parents or anything, compared to the traditional story of reincarnation and reincarnation, it is different, history and your own experience are the same, and you are history.
In the end, it is not only humans and protagonists who have not escaped the cycle, but also earth consciousness.
And then blow yourself off.
The subscription results of "Restart", a little less than the darkness, but it's okay, the number of recommended votes is higher than the darkness, it's gratifying, everyone is used to voting, the book of the end of the world, since "Dark Civilization", the rebirth flow is very popular, this is easy to write at the beginning, and it is easy to enter the rhythm of a routine, although Lao Gu is not the one who invented this routine.
But it should be regarded as a lead, at least before the darkness, I didn't see the rebirth stream apocalypse with outstanding results.
When I first wrote the beginning of "Restart", I was a little troubled, and when I looked everywhere, it was all reborn five years, ten years, thirty years after the end of the world, so I couldn't do it, since I was reborn, let's do it for more than a hundred years.
The rebirth routine of the last days, there are too many people who write it, and it is also written badly.
The reboot can have such results.,It should be the best book of the recent post-apocalyptic rebirth type.。
is different from "Dark Civilization", the dark civilization is to break the universe, reboot but always compress the story on the earth, in fact, it is very, very difficult to write the apocalyptic theme, everyone sees a lot of apocalyptic themes, but where there is evolution, it is inevitable to hit outer space in the end, because if you don't write about outer space, there will be no opponent.
"Reboot" has one thing I like very much.,It's ability.,This book should put the ability to a great extent.,At least the movies I've seen are good.,It's good.,It's very few.,And it's going back and forth.,It's nothing more than the ability to turn into a few basic elements such as gold, wood, water, fire, earth, light and darkness.,What controls metal.,Psychic or something.,It's not new.,And the ability in the restart.,In addition to the ability that ordinary people can think of.,In addition to the ability that ordinary people can think of.,The ability of some other special domains.,Especially the ability of the ruling level.,In fact, every time I think of it., I was very excited, because it didn't feel like anyone would have thought of it, at least I hadn't seen it.
But there's a lot of ability.,It's not written in the restart.,Maybe I'll write a story of an urban superpower in the future.,It's completely the PK of ability.,Different abilities use their own characteristics to fight.,It should feel pretty cool.,Well,It's far away.。
Some people are waiting to write the story of the ancient world, in fact, the story of the ancient world has been improving, but it is not yet time, at least a few years have passed, and I haven't seen any books, and this theme collides, whether it is the upgrade system, or the concept of the world or something, it is quite unconventional, the subject matter is so good, so that I am not sure that it will be presented perfectly, and when I think I can write it, I will write it.
Let's talk about the new book "The Dark King".
(Forgive me for shamelessly canvassing...... )
The new book is the one that has taken the longest preparation, and it shapes a complete, post-disaster world, which develops step by step under the change of the protagonist, and designs a lot of materials, so it takes a long time to prepare.
The new book will also pay more attention to human nature and depth, just like a reboot, although it does not break the universe, but I believe it is also very exciting, at least I see many people say that the reboot is better than the darkness, I am very pleased, indicating that I am improving.
I believe that the new book will be more exciting, and as an old book fan of the reboot, put a hint here, the big hole of the new book, like the reboot, has been buried from the beginning. However, this time it is no longer a story of reincarnation, but a story of exploration and intellectual adventure.
Well, you can go to the collection...... (That's what you're talking about, Hold the grass!) )

…… (To be continued.) )
