Chapter 1 Team 2 / Kamino Moon Line
If there is a God, how can I bear that I am not that God? So there is no God!.
- Nietzsche
This is a black hardcover hardcover book, round back, square corners, semi-circular book slots, there is no fine pattern after pressing on the cover, only the Chinese italic handwriting left after the suspected low temperature hot foil:
"Brain World".
The deep, solemn yet simple design reminds me of the hardcover version of the Bible that priests often carry at weddings.
The book also has no residual floats, book cores, plug cloths and bookmark ribbons, the structure is simple, the pages are not used to ride nails, but seem to be bonded with a special adhesive, the adhesive is extremely strong, but there are no traces left by the adhesive.
The result of backing machining depends on the cutting edge geometry and the pressure angle of the tool. The spine processing effect is mostly linked to the heat release and wear degree of the processing machine, in order to achieve accurate processing results, so that the edge of the book is perfectly bonded, the most exquisite craftsmanship and procedures are required, with pasting, locking, cutting, each process must be extremely in place.
The paper of the book is like common book paper, not coated paper and matte paper, not expensive special paper.
Taken together, the designer of the book is not like a perfectionist who is stuck with the form of the book.
From the design of this book, I already have a general understanding of Miyoko's character.
I am Kannatsu, the champion of the first "Genius Brain" World Series, and some people call me the world's number one wise man. However, those have nothing to do with me, what I pursue is Nietzsche's sensibility and Epicurus's tranquility, or Zhuangzi's leisurely spirit.
I'm not a conspirator, not a politician, not a sophist, not a self-proclaimed expert, I'm just a player.
And now, it's been three years since I won the first Genius Brain title.
And now, I'm caught up in the most exciting game of my life – the game of God. Also, I was the captain of one of the seven-man teams.
When I left the Minkowski space where the woman named Miyoko was, I found myself in a huge gladiatorial arena, and around me, there were six familiar figures, the same people who had been with me in the Minkowski space before. Many of them, I know very well.
One of the girls with a ponytail, phoenix eyes, slender eyebrows, diamond face, and a black and white uniform skirt is my college classmate, Ye Jingwen, who was the representative of the Chinese team that participated in the "Genius Brain" competition with me last year.
Another girl wearing a short red skirt, a double ponytail, and a Catholic cross on her chest, brightly dressed, and looking a few years older than her actual age, is Tang Chuhong, who is also the representative of the Chinese team in the last World Brain Competition.
The other one was wearing a short blue blouse, she had waist-length hair, her face was white and beautiful, her temperament was quiet and elegant, gentle and virtuous, and she was holding a copy of Krishnamurti's "Literary Memoirs" in her hand.
The other was an elegant-looking blond man, with a high forehead, an expensive shirt, a calm expression, and an embroidered emblem on his chest that read "William•Afred•Quannigton."
And the remaining two, a long man with blonde hair, a pair of gray-blue eyes, with Aryan features, a high nose, open lips, cheekbones, he wears a V-neck plaid shirt with a pair of black suit trousers, he is naturally the German team player Ollie Greb of the last brain competition, and the last person is the host of the last brain competition, he wears a pair of German RODENSTOCK thin-rimmed round glasses, and his black hair is draped on both sides of his shoulders, He was well-rounded and slightly broad, dressed in a neat suit and a bright red tie, and the temperament on his face looked elegant and calm, he was a German.
It seems that these people are members of my team, I smiled, fanned the book of "Brain World" in my hand as a fan, and whistled at Ye Jingwen, who was standing nearby.
"God has no moon...... Are you there too? In this way, we are a team...... Where is this and how are we like in the Colosseum in ancient Rome? We didn't dream just now, did we? Ye Jingwen looked around a little flusteredly, she shook her ponytail, looking overwhelmed.
"Now that you've answered your own questions, do I need to speak again?" I spread my hands, smiled pleasantly, and said casually.
Hearing my words, Ye Jingwen was instantly angered by me, she strode forward, then raised her eyebrows, grabbed my ear, and said angrily:
"I'm telling you what to be serious! What the hell is going on? And also...... You say you've been a god before, but what's the matter? Are you really ......?"
I smiled, just looked at Ye Jingwen quietly, looked at her eyes that gradually lost her patience and began to burn, then shook my hand and said with a smile:
"Let's wait until later, don't you want to hear what the one above you has to say?"
"Overhead...... on, what are you looking at? Ye Jingwen frowned and raised her head and looked at the sky, and then I saw her mouth open wide, showing a surprised expression, I smiled, stretched out my finger, drew a circle in her big little mouth, and then slowly retracted.
"Y-What are you doing! Looking for a fight, right? Seeing my actions, Ye Jingwen turned her head angrily and glared at me, while I pursed my lips and smiled, with ten fingers together and a smile:
"Hehe, seeing your stunned appearance, I can't help but tease you, let's look at the sky." Ye Jingwen glared at me fiercely and wrinkled her nose, and I saw Qin Shuya, who was standing not far away, seeing my actions, and couldn't help but cover her mouth.
I also looked away and looked at the sky, because the scene in the sky at this moment was indeed extraordinary.
The vision that appeared in the sky was none other than a human face.
A beautiful girl's face, with white hair spread out in the sky, delicate eyebrows, a beautiful nose, a face characteristic of a mixed-race beauty, thin red lips and dark and bright eyes like two moons, looking down on the world, if this face is located at the height between the troposphere and the stratosphere, I can predict that it will be at least 1,200 square kilometers, the same as Rome in Italy for the first time.
With the appearance of this face, my ear drums suddenly sounded a buzzing vibration sound, and then this vibration sound actually began to change rhythm and timbre, and turned into a meaningful and beautiful girl's voice:
"Humans all over the world, please listen. I am the messenger of God - Tiran Shengxue, and I am the host and sole referee of the second "Genius Brain" Global Championship at the behest of my lord, and from this moment on, the second "Genius Brain" Global Championship with the participation of 224 countries begins. Within three days, each country must send a seven-member team aged 40 and under to represent their country, and the defeated nation will disappear from the face of the earth, along with its land and the people on it. ”
"In a month's time, only one country that won the championship will be able to continue to exist on the planet, and the other countries will be completely wiped out as inferior races that are considered to have incomplete brain development and no noble soul. Countries that refuse to participate in the competition will be directly considered defeated and wipe out the traces of the material presence of their country. ”
The girl in the sky named Tiran Shengxue read the rules of the game, and I was crouching on the ground, listening boredly, yawning as I listened.
"The schedule of the participating teams will be randomly selected, and if the participating countries agree to change the opponent country, they can also apply to me for a free change on the premise of complying with the wishes of each country. The members of the competition are composed of players from each country who are free to choose their own players. The content of the contest is up to me to decide for my lord. The rest of the rules are the same as those of the first Genius Brain competition. ”
"So, all countries, please search for your mentally qualified contestants and nationals, and bring the most respectable souls and hearts to participate in this transnational brain competition!"
After speaking, Tiran Shengxue's face gradually disappeared from the sky, and the sky turned blue again.
There was a cacophony around me, and I was holding the back of my head with my hands staggered, whistling.
"Soul? Hehe......" I couldn't help but laugh and snap my fingers at random.
"What's the matter, what are you laughing at?" Ye Jingwen frowned and looked at me.
"Nothing." I shook my head and said with a smile, "I didn't expect this angel to believe in such a classical second philosophical category...... Bored. Old-fashioned. I said casually.
"Old-fashioned? What does it mean that God has no moon? Ye Jingwen, who was standing next to me, asked me with a frown.
"That's what it means literally. To put it bluntly, it's an enlarged survival game.,It's the same content as the last time Miyoko held a god game.。 I said.
"Last time? Did you participate in the last God Game? Ye Jingwen looked at me in shock.
"yes." I spread my hands and said with a smile, "But the last session was too substandard, and I won easily." It's not fun to be God Almighty. The most interesting thing in the world is to challenge the power of the omnipotent with an incompetent body, isn't it? Saying that, I gently lifted the chin of Ye Jingwen, who was staring at me with wide eyes, and was held up by me with a sharp chin, Ye Jingwen reacted as if she was electrocuted, she suddenly turned red and quickly opened the distance between her and me, and then kicked me hard.
"What are you doing, what are you doing! God no moon! Believe it or not? Ye Jingwen gritted her teeth, looked at me viciously, and waved her pink fist at me, I saw that the roots of her ears were slightly red, and I knew that she was slightly excited in her inner shame, so I couldn't help laughing.
"Hey, are you serious? Kamino Moon, did you really participate in the last God Game? So where are we now? Who was the woman named Tiran Shengxue in the sky just now? Is she a god? How did she manage to project her figure in the sky, and how did she make a voice when she was so far away from us? Ye Jingwen asked me with a straight face.
"Obviously, the projection in the sky is nothing more than a cross-atmospheric refraction effect. By modifying the density of air between the troposphere and stratosphere, changing the refractive index of the local atmosphere, resulting in a difference in the refractive angle of sunlight, and then using the different superposition effects of light mixing, it is easy to present a projection like the one just now. As for the sound transmission, it is easier, since Tiran Shengxue can change the density and flow rate of the atmosphere, then it is also a trivial matter for her to make the air vibrate, and the essence of sound is the vibration of the air, as long as the directional vibration of the air is used, it can be easily located and transmitted. I flicked my fingers and said lightly.
"It's really boring, it's too simple, if it were me, I would use the nerve cell potential difference to stimulate the spontaneous activity of the temporal lobe region to cause periodic frequency vibrations of the auditory functional band, and then activate the language-specific network in the left hemisphere to achieve the telepathic sound transmission effect. It's really a simple angel, it's still old-fashioned, I don't even understand the mood of romanticism and mysticism, my emotional intelligence is really low, and I'm bored to death. ”
Ye Jingwen looked at me dumbfounded, and then frowned and muttered to me:
"Hey, you're going to die if you put it simply! Don't talk so much, you're awesome, right? You say, what should we do now? Do you think what that fairy-like woman said is true? You said you were a god, you always know a seven, seven, eight, eight, right? ”
"Of course it's true, the black technology that can project images in the sky at least 1,200 square kilometers and realize the positioning and sound transmission of individuals has not yet appeared on the earth. As for what we should do? Miss Ye, I said what else can we do? End your trip to Italy and return home. I said lazily, "There are only three days to form teams from various countries, and the country doesn't have so much time to hold a brain king audition competition to select elites." As a representative member of the Chinese team of the last "Genius Brain", we must be ready to participate. Even if we don't want to, the country will use both hard and soft turnips and sticks to drive us to the competition. I would like to ask you now, how do you think the international situation will change according to that angel's words, Miss Ye? ”
I raised my eyebrows at Ye Jingwen and watched her contemplative posture with interest.
Ye Jingwen raised her eyebrows, and after thinking for a while, a confident smile immediately appeared, and said:
"If what the angel said is true, then wouldn't it be possible to avoid going to war if the nations of the world were united into one?"
Hearing Ye Jingwen's analysis, I laughed out loud and leaned forward and backwards with laughter.
"Miss Ye, you are so naïve."
"yes, that's naïve." A man's voice sounded, I looked sideways, and what I saw was the host of the last "Genius Brain" program, who was standing next to Ye Jingwen with a wry smile.
"Hey, what do you mean? Am I wrong in what I said? If this game of "Genius Brain" is the strategy of our world, as long as all the countries of the world merge into one country, wouldn't it be possible to avoid the destruction of each country? And then after that, the country just needs to change its name, change the name of the country to a district or province, isn't it OK? ”
"Miss Ye, you're wrong when you say that." A pleasant voice came, I squinted and saw Qin Shuya, the captain of the Korean team wearing a waist bag and a cyan short smock, walking in style, although her expression was dignified, she still maintained the proper etiquette.
"Qin Shuya?" Seeing Qin Shuya, Ye Jingwen suddenly showed a complicated expression, no matter what, Qin Shuya was a strong opponent in the last competition, and Ye Jingwen would definitely guard against her. "You've been chosen to participate in this game. What do you mean by that? ”
Qin Shuya pursed her lips and smiled, her smile was like a spring breeze, she pressed her slender right index finger against her lips, and whispered out five words:
"The Theory of the Victory of a Weak Country."
Ye Jingwen opened her mouth slightly, as smart as her, she naturally quickly figured out what Qin Shuya wanted to express.
"Figured it out?" I smiled and flicked Ye Jingwen's forehead, winked at her and said.
"Cut, what are you proud of, megalomaniac." Ye Jingwen wrinkled her nose and raised her leg to kick my calf, but I had already taken a step back with a smile in advance, and Ye Jingwen naturally failed to succeed.
"Well, in other words, if what that beautiful angel named Tiran Shengxue said is true, then the weak country can also use this game to annex other big countries, so the weak country is advantageous, that's right?" A delicate voice came, and the owner of the voice was not Ye Jingwen, but the petite girl standing on the side, wearing a white lace hairband, a finely cut red dress, a double ponytail, a delicate jade face, and a lively and cheerful personality - Tang Chuhong. This girl is a mixed-race child, from a prominent family, and a devout Catholic, as one of the strong players of the last "Genius Brain" Chinese team, the handmade St. Benedict's exorcism statue on the silver-white cross charm she wore on her chest impressed me very much, I still remember that she was a short-haired girl when she participated in the last competition, and today, three years later, she has grown a double ponytail.
"That's right," I glanced at Tang Chuhong approvingly, and slowly analyzed, "As a person who has been a god, of course I know that Tilan Shengxue's words are true, so I know very well what will happen next." Since the population of other countries can be eliminated by relying on brain competition, then the gap between the big and the weak countries in technology, weapons, economy, culture, politics and so on is infinitely narrowed, no country wants to perish by itself, so under the coercion of the existential crisis the best policy and strategy is the annexation of the country, theoretically, as long as the population of the world all the countries join the nationality of a large country and bear its name, it will not perish, and that country can also win without a fight. So that no nation will perish. However, this is only a theoretical possibility, and if only one of the more than 200 countries in the world does not agree, the other countries will have to face the high-risk situation of selecting teams and playing them. Therefore, this cross-world game is a very cost-effective high-risk and low-reward loss-making deal for large countries, but for small countries, it is an excellent opportunity to fight for the expansion of land, resources and political influence, even small countries have the risk of being destroyed after failure, but it is not impossible to take this opportunity to negotiate with large countries to strive for land cession, plunder resources or establish contracts from large countries. Therefore, in the early stage of the game, the big countries will inevitably take various turnip and stick measures in advance to advocate the merger of countries, while the small countries will inevitably resist vigorously, demand that the big countries compromise, and cut flesh and blood from the big countries to establish various unequal contracts...... It's that simple. ”
"You're smart, huhty? Hum. Ye Jingwen looked at me provocatively, then twisted my shoulder fiercely, and said, "But have you ever thought about it, the big country has such a powerful weapon of aggression, won't it rely on force to destroy those weak countries first, so that the big countries can not have a game." ”
I sighed helplessly and said with a smile:
"If even you can think of this, can't that mighty angel do it? Since the angel said that it was to screen out humans with qualified brains, naturally he would not allow such a boring event as war to happen. Look, Ye Da Beauty, that angel lady will soon take measures to prohibit the war in the human world. ”
As if it were a prophecy, my words had just fallen, when a shocking explosion suddenly sounded in the northeast direction, and I saw a small golden sun rising in the northeast sky, and the small sun quickly crushed towards the ground, and then, I saw a large area of buildings in the northeast area quickly dissolve and disintegrate like the cream of flames.
"What's that sun? In that direction...... It's northeast...... Could it be that the Basilica of San Lorenzo was destroyed? Ye Jingwen looked at the suffocating little sun that was crushing down from the sky in surprise and exclaimed.
"How could it be, I knew on my toes that it must have been the university town of the Ministry of Defense in Rome that was destroyed. The proud angel lady was just using the little sun made by controlled nuclear fusion energy to show her military power to destroy Italy. Looking at the volume of the small sun and the absence of laser focus as a prelude, it is estimated that it is magnetic confinement nuclear fusion. Now that the rules of the game have been opened, don't show some prestige, what if the big countries are disobedient and start a war, I say yes, Ye Da Beauty? I snapped my fingers and said with a light smile. This time, I originally came to Europe with Ye Jingwen to travel to Europe as a group because I participated in the quiz program and was rewarded by the program group's European tour group ticket, so Ye Jingwen naturally has some understanding of the topography of the Italian capital, as for me, as early as when I was five years old, I was already able to memorize all the street buildings in Italy.
"Cut, are you smart? It's not good to see you know everything all day long, but you say, what should we do next, my respected god god god Wuyue-sama? ”
"Well, I'll keep it a secret first, let's find a place to sit down and watch the excitement on Internet TV first, I guess the whole world is in chaos now. The apocalyptic scenario of mass fear and upheaval is rare, especially at the very beginning of panic. I couldn't help but wipe my lips and smile happily.
"Are you having a convulsion, Shen Wuyue? This is a major event that will destroy the country and the species, why can you still laugh? Ye Jingwen had a pretty face and smacked me on the head hard, this woman who is worried about everything is naturally impossible to stay calm at this time.
"With a little force, don't knock your captain's head out." I looked at Ye Jingwen with a malicious smile and said, "Your captain's head is comparable to a nuclear-level strategic deterrent weapon, where can you go to get another one if it is broken?" ”
"You!" Ye Jingwen blew her beard and stared at me, opened her mouth, raised her hand with broken palm prints and wanted to smash it down, but the smile in the face of me couldn't fall, I like to see Ye Jingwen's angry appearance when she was teased by me. "Hmph, why don't you let me go soon? The world's number one narcissist! If the old lady doesn't knock you on the head, it's not okay to kick your ass? ”
As she spoke, Ye Jingwen wrinkled her nose and kicked my ass fiercely, I twisted my waist and easily dodged it, and then I heard a chuckle like a wind chime behind me, and I saw that Qin Shuya couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker.
"Mr. Kamino Moon, since the last competition, I thought you were a kingly and unbeatable tall man, but I didn't expect to have such a cute side."
I snapped my fingers, looked at Qin Shuya with a light smile, and said:
"Yes, Miss Qin Shuya, if you feel that you are in love with me, you can confess to me as soon as possible, I can probably accept it, although my female suitors are about 376,000 according to irregular statistics. However, I still have a soft spot for smart and gentle women, compared to some women with a Tyrannosaurus rex personality with teeth and claws, it is simply the difference between the North Star and the South Pole Star. ”
"Hey, who do you say is a Tyrannosaurus rex? You're tired of living, aren't you? Ye Jingwen's lips twitched, she waved her fist at me with her teeth and claws extremely sensitively, while Qin Shuya on the side just covered her mouth and pursed her lips, and kept chuckling:
"yes, then if I want to get something back, it's really going to be a race against time, but I suspect some people will be reluctant." As she spoke, Qin Shuya glanced at Ye Jingwen inadvertently, and at the same time blinked her left eye, brushing her eyelashes lightly, and was playful.
"Hey, who are some of the people you mean? You're not going to say I'm interested in this narcissist, are you? Hmph, I wish I could kick this stinky narcissist who only knows how to talk wild all day to Australia! ”
"Yes. That's great, because I can just take advantage of it. Qin Shuya clasped her hands together and looked at Ye Jingwen with a smile.
Hearing Qin Shuya's words, the smile on Ye Jingwen's face suddenly froze, the expression on her face was extremely weird, she couldn't tell whether she was shocked or shy, and finally she shook her long ponytail, coughed, and said:
"If you want to chase him, chase him, what's the matter with me...... Okay, let's go, stay here any longer, do you want to wait until dawn? Let's go! ”
I folded my hands on pillows behind my head, smiling and watching the two women play with each other's words and words, from their demeanor and words, I naturally know their true thoughts and emotions, but I don't bother to say it, I just like to quietly observe the stupid and cute appearance of human beings in the predicament.
"What are you laughing at again? It's funny, isn't it, don't you go soon! Seeing my smiling appearance, Ye Jingwen was naturally angry, although this smart woman has good brain power in games such as crossword puzzles and nine-square grids, she is extremely direct and simple in terms of self-emotional restraint and scheming.
As she spoke, Ye Jingwen directly pulled my red nano silk pearl tie, pulled my neck and strode out of the Colosseum.
We walked out of the Colosseum and took a seat at the Tazza D'Oro café near the Jerusalem-style Church of the Holy Cross.
Marble tables, sofa chairs, and tuxedo-clad waiters create a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere, but there is no tension of the apocalypse.
I was lazily sitting on the couch and playing with my phone, browsing the latest reports from various countries on the vision in the sky. Sure enough, the image of Tiran Shengxue appeared in the sky of the world, and the explosive horror news that the second "Genius Brain" contest would force all countries in the world to participate has also spread throughout the country.
What is even more remarkable is that within three hours after Tiran Shengxue announced the news of the brain competition, the nuclear weapons arsenals of all the nuclear-weapon countries in the world exploded, and the nuclear weapons arsenals of the United States, Russia, Britain, France, China, India, Pakistan, Israel, North Korea and other countries were attacked by some kind of ultra-high temperature weapons, and all the arsenals were plasmized, and all nuclear weapons were destroyed. It cannot be used anymore.
Of course, it seems that Tiran Shengxue has only eliminated the arsenal of nuclear weapons, but not the arsenal of other light weapons, nor has he attacked the military bases of any country, and it is clear that the destruction of the arsenal of nuclear weapons is enough to deter all mankind, and there is no need to destroy other military bases or arsenals.
"What a naïve angel, hehe." I couldn't help but laugh as I watched the news reports.
"Boss, what do you see again, you have been smiling since just now?" Seeing me shaking my head and smiling at the phone screen, Tang Chuhong, who was also in the same team as me, couldn't help but come up curiously and asked.
"It's nothing, I'm just laughing at the angel's innocence as always." I sighed, "Even if weapons and wars are banned, there are many ways to destroy a country even if there is no war or firefight." For example, if I were in power, then I would only need to send a large number of light short-haul planes to the residential areas of neighboring countries, drop a large number of light weapons and munitions, and then put a proper political fanning to promote the confrontation between the military and the people of the country, and eliminate the regime of a country without a fight...... It's not a wise move for Tilan Shengxue not to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, so ah, I feel that Tilan Shengxue's emotional intelligence and political IQ are too low, and her grasp of people's hearts is not as good as her ability to make people admire. ”
"Listen to your tone, since Minkowski space, you have always emphasized that you have been a god, so what is the relationship between this God and you now?" The moderator sitting next to me asked me with great interest.
"The so-called God is nothing but the author of a book," I replied simply, "haven't everyone seen the Bibel Library of Miyoko?" Do you think those books are all written by Miyoko? Hehe, don't be funny, the real authors of those books were written by people who once held the position of God, and Miyoko is nothing more than a librarian. Of course, she also has the authority to modify the content of the book, which I do not deny. As for the Tilan Shengxue you have seen, it is just my "Brain World""
The Book of God is just a servant of God. "I threw the "Brain World" in my hand to the host, licking the GELATO brand ice cream in my mouth and said nonchalantly.
