In the endless darkness, Wu Ming gradually regained consciousness and woke up.

To be precise, only his consciousness is still awake.

Perhaps it was the effect of the spiritual filter, coupled with the timely arrival of the firm's support, Wu Ming's consciousness was not overwhelmed and dissolved by the massive amount of information in the end, but under the filter of the filter, absorbing the knowledge and memories that did not have much impact on him.

But soon he found himself trapped here, trapped in this seemingly boundless space of consciousness.

Scenes of memory illuminate the endless and ever-extending darkness in the space of consciousness like a marquee theater.

It's a memory that has accumulated in the lives of different people, and in different worlds.

Fighting against demonic plants and mimic creatures, and supporting each other with friends to survive in the apocalypse, only to be transformed into a monster by the Tree of Life, and have to make painful memories of killing his former best friend.

Living in a stagnant world where everything can be done easily, and the lost memory of losing the goal of effort and finding the meaning of self-fulfillment.

As a new navigator, he goes out to sea to explore the ghostly seas, but is attacked by a strange armored creature deep sea fleet, and his ambitions and ideals are finally swallowed up by the silence of the sea.

Everywhere there are hungry, thirsty, hideous and terrible insects, the land is barren and decaying, and because of famine and disease, people have to eat their children, and even kill each other, eating their flesh and blood to live in difficult memories.

For some reason, one day the observable universe and the starry sky disappeared completely, leaving only the lonely solar system in the cosmic space, and human civilization had just stepped out of the cradle and set foot on the moon, but could not explore the regretful memory of the sea of stars.

Defeat endless monsters, and finally die of warrior memory; Having lost his body in the material world, he can only wander in the memories of the ghosts of the electronic world; Crazy man-made weapons proliferate without limit, and involve the entire land in the memory of war; After the sun goes out, burrow into the ground in search of the memories of the travelers who seek fire and warmth......

After the apparent consciousness of intelligent beings dies out with the end of life, the experience, knowledge and memories accumulated throughout life will gradually precipitate to the deepest part of the human heart, which is the starting point of the awakening of the consciousness of all intelligent creatures, and at the same time the destination of the end of their consciousness - the sea of collective unconscious.

However, as a superhuman consciousness shaped by negative and malignant emotions, irrational thoughts, emotions and biological instincts in the sea of collective unconscious, most of the memories he transmits are crazy, painful, and desperate memories......

And Wu Ming is now digesting these memories......

…………

Otto gradually woke up from his coma.

When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was the face stained with blood, a hideous and ugly scar cut diagonally, and an extremely fierce face.

This frightened him so much that he almost twitched again.

"Are you awake?" Alex tried to tug at the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile that he thought was very kind and kind, but this smile only made him even more terrifying, "Don't worry, it's all over." ”

Shit? What has passed? Otto wanted to habitually swear words, but a sharp headache and the pain of a fractured chest interrupted his words: "Hiss...... I...... Why does my head and chest hurt so much......"

"You're contaminated." Alex reached out and pulled Otto up from the ground as he explained, "You suddenly vomited out a large amount of filth like black mud and pus, and at the same time were connected by a transcendent being, the situation was so urgent that your big hunter brother only had time to create a dream barrier for you to cushion the impact of information......"

Otto frowned and gradually recalled the fragmented memories before he fell unconscious, but he was even more confused: "I understand the pain in my head, but why does my chest hurt like a broken one......"

"That's because when I arrived, your heart was close to stopping, so I gave you a set of CPR."

"God gave me a set of CPRs...... Wait, ...... when you arrive? Otto clearly noticed the problem, "Why did you come to give me CPR...... Hey, where's the big hunter? Leave me alone and leave it alone? ”

"He's dead." Alex looked a little indifferent.

Otto stammered, unable to speak for a long time: "What......"

"He urgently weaved a dream barrier to help you cushion a large amount of information shock, which also means that he forcibly intervened in your connection with that transcendent being, and faced the information shock." The old hunter calmly told the truth that was difficult for Otto to accept, "He died on the spot, so there is no way to carry out follow-up treatment for you, so I can only leave it to me who came first to complete the follow-up treatment and treatment for you." ”

"Why?"

"Because he's a good guy like me."

Alex's mouth curled into a smile of relief, as if he was remembering his colleague, but this time Otto felt that the fierce face crawling with hideous scars seemed less terrifying: "Standing up to protect the lives of others is a matter of course for me and for him." ”

"We have the ability to save others, we have the ability to help others, we have the ability to reach out to people in distress and make a difference, so we do it. It's as simple as that. ”

Otto couldn't understand the sacrifice of the hunter's big brother, and he had both the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe and the guilt of thinking that he didn't deserve to be saved, and his feelings were extremely complicated: "Is it worth it even if it is to take your life for someone like me?" ”

"At least for me, there is no distinction between high and low in life. The life of a mouse is a life, the life of a goldfish is a life, the life of a good person is a life, and the life of a bad person is also a life. The old hunter helped Otto to his feet, and then carried the latter on his back, "but as a hunter, I often have to choose, I have to weigh the value of life." ”

"In order to protect the good guys, you have to kill the bad guys, and in order to protect human society, you have to kill the restless transcendent creatures. I've always believed that this choice was wrong, that some otherworldly beings can have a chance to mend their ways, and that some people join the ranks of bad people because it is extremely difficult to be a good person or even live...... But to the hunting syndicates, they are a threat, and the threat should be eradicated. ”

"And then one day, it occurred to me that if all people, all the transcendent beings, realized the benefits of being a good person, and realized that being a good person could indeed live a happy, free, and better life than being a bad person. Then if everyone chooses to be a good person, obey the order, love their neighbors, help each other, and watch over each other, will many fights be avoided? ”

Otto was silent for a long time about Alex's question before he replied with some bitterness.

"I don't know ......"

He didn't know the answer to that question, and he didn't know how to move on with the rest of his life.

"I don't know if this idea is correct, so I at least want to lead by example and find a way to prove that being a good person can indeed live a happy life and a better life than being a bad person......"
