Chapter 151: The Age of Apocalypse
Chapter 151: The Age of Apocalypse
Existence itself is a great lie, and like the beautiful hanging garden, there is no such thing as spiritual or substantial. Eternity is the poison that man has configured to poison his self-deception. Why do you always want to catch it when you know it doesn't exist? because it's a beautiful lie that can move people.
The Freya I embraced was illusory, an illusion created by chaos eroding my will. I wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes, and I felt that my world was suddenly much clearer. Actually, there is nothing wrong with this, at least I can still feel the coldness of chaos.
The loess under his feet has long been transformed into a beautiful sandy beach, the blue sea in front of him is slightly rippling, the blue sky is floating with white clouds, and there are a few cheerful whispers in the sky. An endless stream of people gradually emerged, running, frolicking, sunbathing, and piling up castles, showing all the ways of the world.
The world is just a dream of mine, and all grievances and hatreds, and pleasures are all imagined, entrusting unrealizable thoughts and indulging in my dreams.
I was sitting cross-legged on a big bare rock on the beach, when a beautiful young girl came up to me and sat down beside me, looked at me sequettishly and said, "What's the matter, what are you thinking?
"A wise person like me thinks about profound questions, big questions about the universe and life, which ordinary people can't understand. Can you understand?" I looked at Eve's playful smiling face, and I knew that she must have come to make trouble, because Lin Xinyue was sunbathing not far away, and we were right in front of her.
"How do you know I don't understand if you don't say it?Just let me be your bosom sister!What's wrong?Icarus, can't you feel my sincerity?" Eve wanted to grab my hand, but after I dodged it, she immediately changed her tactics and threw me to the ground, so frightened that I immediately looked at Lin Xinyue, who just stretched out one of her palms and made a motion to wipe her neck.
"Heroine spare my life!" I immediately disarmed and surrendered when I saw that the situation was not good, and looked around, and found that Joey and Imilan were looking at us curiously, and as for Amelia and Ellie, they were already running over without stopping. I guess they're here to save me, that's what I thought.
"There are 10 seconds left, keep going, victory is in sight!" Ellie's serious gaze wandered between me and my watch, seeing that I was confused for a while, I unconsciously asked Amelia for help, who very ladylike took out her microphone, cleared her throat, stood up, smiled, and showed her good qualities as a singer.
Eve closed her eyes slightly, her white cheeks slowly pressed towards me, and I could hear her breathing and her heart beating very clearly. But just as I closed my eyes and waited for this beautiful and sinful moment to come, I suddenly heard the cheers of the women next to me, and then the feeling of burden on my body disappeared, and I immediately understood that I was entertained by everyone.
"Now I solemnly announce that the winner of this competition is-" Just as Amelia opened her voice and was about to shout, Ellie, who was on the side, interrupted Amelia and pointed in the direction of Lin Xinyue.
"The rules of our game seem to be that Eve is going to tease Icarus in front of Yue'er for 10 minutes!, but I look at Yue'er's appearance, as if she is asleep!" Ellie made a reluctant move.
"Impossible, she must be pretending to be asleep, I saw her awake just now!" Eve didn't believe it, turned around and ran in the direction of Lin Xinyue.
The scene reversed, and in the blink of an eye, the sunny beaches of Delphi's Divine Domain vanished without a trace, replaced by the shattered sight of the Capital of the Undead. Icarus stood in front of me, smiling, withdrew the finger that had been placed on my forehead, and said to me, "Can you tell which is real and which is illusory?"
I didn't answer his question right away, but looked around at everything around me, which was still the same as it was before the Great Destruction. In the sky, Ellie greeted the crazy Eve with a blue rose, and the Dongxuan priest on the earth panicked. Time seems to have been set aside, reminding me of Elijah, the Immovable Realm.
"Which is real and which is illusory, who knows? I am afraid that even the Creator himself is confused! Elijah's real world is immovable, but some of the people who are in the realm of illusion will feel that they are imaginary. If you assume that you don't exist from the beginning, then what's the point of doing those things? The meaning of existence is not about existence itself, but more about the attitude toward existence. ”
After all this, I realized that in fact, from the beginning of the struggle to the final tragic end, it was only because of one reason, the asymmetry of class power. My enemies, the gods, have absolute power, and I can only rely on the power of the gods to achieve my goals. This gap in reality cannot be bridged, and any effort I make can only be a means for others to achieve something.
"And then, the thousand waters have died, and you have lost the basis on which you live. The mind that has been destroyed from the flesh, no matter how great, will eventually be annihilated. Icarus held a book of wisdom in his hand that he didn't know which world it was, and it was destroyed in an instant.
"Are you finished, too? If you exist, how can you say that I am a complete failure? You and I are the same person, aren't we?" I asked Icarus.
"You and I are not the same person. You see, I'm not the same at all!" Icarus pointed to himself and me, trying to convince me of the differences.
"You and I are the same person, and it's only because of the illusion that you distinguish me from you!" I ignored Icarus' exaggerated movements and continued to stare at him.
"No, no, no! Regarding the question of this illusion, that is Yue'er's mind, and the world is all Yue'er's dream. Stolen dreams are bad behaviors, we have to have our own thoughts!Eh, okay, I'm thoughts, you're the carrier, you can do whatever you say!So what's next?" Icarus shrugged, looking helpless.
"Great ideas are produced in practice, and it is natural to return to reality in order to make greater progress. Alas, Icarus, discuss something with you, you can create another world for me to practice, I promise to do better than this time!" I put my arms around Icarus' neck and promised him.
"No, no, no, the world is gone, I'm going to disappear, I'll never see you again, I'm so happy!"
I struggled against fate all my life, and in the end I discovered a fact: fate is my will, and my will determines my life.
