The sound of the wind seemed to be coming past his ears.

In the midst of the flowing waves, Bering looked up and looked through the layers of dark curtains to the center of the stage.

Even the cascading undercurrents could not hide his gaze, or rather, the only stage that was already shining into the deep ocean.

Of course, it's not so much a "stage" as a cramped room.

The people in the room, Bering, were very familiar, even overfamiliar.

On the pale but fairly human-toned face, the messy hair looked like it hadn't been washed in days, scattered on the forehead, soaked with sweat, and stuck to the scalp. There is still some dust on the tip of his nose, and his eyes are full of depression and sorrow, looking like a bankrupt who has failed to start a business, is in debt, and will jump off a skyscraper in the next second.

In that room, everything was still. The light fell on the ground sluggishly, the wind stagnated in the air, and the dust stopped falling, stopping at a place within reach, like a brilliant crystal under the illumination of the light.

Subconsciously reaching out his hand, Bering couldn't touch the light in that room.

When his hand reached over, he could only feel the vast ocean current slipping between his fingers, like clouds lined up by the wings of a giant bird, neatly arranged in two layers from the middle.

At this time, Bering realized that this was not "reality".

But this is not the "future" either, at least not Bering's.

Because if he didn't guess wrong, the scene in front of him was clearly a reappearance of himself who had not yet come to this world and was planning to aim his gun at himself!

It's been two months since he woke up, and Bering doesn't think he has the ability to see what hasn't happened two months ago.

So it's very simple.

The first possibility is that the scene in front of you is actually the future as seen by the oathbreaker.

This is not difficult to understand, after all, the oath breaker himself must have lived hundreds of years earlier than Bering himself, and according to the calculation of time, this possibility still has some merit and is more reliable.

The other possibility is more appalling.

That is, everything that happened in these two months is essentially a "future" that happened in the original world itself.

And now it's just that he's woken up.

In other words, this means that the current Bering is nothing more than what he thinks he is in the original world, and he himself is nothing more than a dream. Just as in Hindu mythology, the whole world is a dream of a great god, and all dependent birth and death are the dreams of gods.

This possibility is not impossible, and the evidence is that Bering can feel every time he prophesies, and his own prophecy process is almost the same as what he has personally experienced.

Although his essence is to look at the picture behind the tide under the ocean, from the subjective emotional point of view, Bering can also feel emotions and five senses in the future. His prediction of the future, to some extent, is really a bit similar to the "S/L" mentioned by Xun Mo himself.

Experience it yourself, then save it, read it.

The only difference may be that Bering's ontology has stood firmly in the ocean from the beginning.

This also makes him not really end his life if he encounters death in the future, but returns to the ocean of consciousness and returns to his original consciousness.

Someone else archives a file, and if someone accidentally dies before they read the file, it's really dead. And Bering is the same as opening the lock blood hanging, even if it hangs countless times in the future, it will not be returned to the ontology in the end.

So although he and SL are similar, the essence is still two things.

After thinking about it, Bering felt that both possibilities were very interesting.

The first interesting thing is that when the two prophets meet together, they can share the future that the other sees is really unimaginable.

And the second interesting thing is......

It's a hard thing to expand on and elaborate on.

Just like the hypothesis of the "brain in a vat", which cannot be refuted in most cases, it is not wrong to say whether Bering is the real ontology at the moment, and this thing is not wrong until he wakes up from the "dream".

In the end, whether he is predicting the future or not is a difficult thing for the protagonist to falsify. Even the oath-breakers had only suspected that they might have been in Bering's prophecy, but there was no conclusive evidence to prove it.

Therefore, it is difficult to draw conclusions on this issue.

However, Bering did not intend to draw conclusions on this occasion.

Many philosophers have been thinking about the question that they have not been able to figure out all their lives, and there is no reason that he, a guy whose body is almost half cold, can figure it out in such a short time. He is not much smarter than those people, and the only thing that is commendable is perhaps the ability to "trial and error" many times.

But philosophical problems cannot be solved by trial and error.

So there's no point in bothering yourself with this kind of problem right now.

What's more, it seems that the stage is finally about to start "performing".

At this moment, the air in the cramped room finally began to flow.

In the middle of the room, Bering, with his hair disheveled, looked at the table in front of him.

At this moment, a pitch-black pistol was lying on the table.

He stared at the pistol, his gaze wandering and seemingly thinking.

It's at this time of Bering's thinking.

Across from him, a deep voice came from out of sight: "Have you thought about it?" ”

In the face of this voice, Bering raised his head and showed a smile that could be said to be embarrassing.

"Of course," he bowed slightly, "I've thought about it a long time ago. ”

Holding the pistol in his hand, Bering opened the safety of the pistol, and with a slight sound of squandering, the original jet-black body exuded an aura that was even more dangerous than before.

Grabbing the handle of the gun, Bering sighed: "I can't do it, I really can't do it." ”

"I've tried too many times, but the more I try, the more I can't get out of this spiral, and I can't break it all," his voice was decadent, "no matter how much effort I tried, it was useless in the end." Even what I used to do may now become an obstacle for me. ”

"Everything proves me wrong, and the foresight of the future brings not security, but deeper dangers......"

In the past, Bering's hand holding the gun trembled a little: "I thought I could solve this danger, but I didn't expect that the final result would be to put myself in the trap and it would be difficult to break free......"

As he spoke, he sighed: "I'm tired, I'm really tired." I've given everything for this illusory future, but what's the point? I've been preparing for it for a long time, but in the end I'm going to die in despair and pain...... Rather than that, it would be better to end it all now and leave these troubles for the next one. ”

Listening to his voice, the person opposite fell silent.

After a long while, the voice continued to say to Bering, who had passed, "You're running away. ”

"Escape, yes, I'm running away." In the past, Bering accepted it calmly, "But it doesn't matter whether it's an escape or not." Prophecy is not a tool for salvation, but a yoke that urges you to hell. ”

"I'm not a strong person, never have been, I don't have the consciousness to save everyone even if I sacrifice myself, but why? Why should I, a person who has no characteristics up to this point, accept all this, and why should I have to take on the so-called 'responsibility' without any resources? Is it fate? Or something else? Whatever it was, the end result was that it chose the wrong person – at the end of the day, I couldn't match that power at all. ”

In the past, Bering pinched his pistol and said calmly: "I am just an ordinary person, and 99.99% of people can't do this kind of thing like saving the world, and there is no reason why I, the 99.99%, can jump to 0.01% after experiencing all this." So, I gave up and didn't want to care. ”

"The only thing I can do now is for the next person to take my place," he smiled, "or I would really want to take my abilities to the other side instead of sticking to my current human identity." It's not that difficult, as long as I want to use the power of foreseeing the future to do it easily. Even I might be better mixed up among the monsters—if only I left behind my useless conscience and compassion. ”

Holding the muzzle of the gun to his temple, Bering chuckled and said, "So, this is probably the last mercy I have left to mankind." ”

After saying this.

He did not hesitate to pull the trigger.

In the next second, the bullet burst out of the muzzle of the gun, with fierce kinetic energy, and in an instant, it penetrated Bering's brain in the past, and accurately hit the opposite wall, leaving a deep bullet hole!

With a "bang", the past Bering collapsed on the dining table with his eyes open.

Blood erupted from his wounds, filling the floor and turning the floor in a horrific crimson.

Look at the scene in front of you.

A moment later, in an inconspicuous corner, someone sighed softly.

After about three seconds, Bering's fingers, which had been lying on the table, moved slightly.

Strange foam emerged from his brain, mending his wounds bit by bit, wiping out all traces of his bare bones, leaving his head as clean as new.

The face that had been pale from blood loss before had slowly regained its blood color, and the current Bai Ling even looked so ruddy that it didn't look like someone who had just died.

Soon, the movement of his fingers grew louder and louder. It didn't take long for his eyelids to start fluttering.

Noticing this scene, the man hiding in the shadows also seemed to feel the need to stay here any longer.

When she stood up, her whole body seemed to be hidden in the shadows, not only her appearance was invisible, but even her height and gender were like a gray mist.

After getting up, the man who was shrouded in fog looked back at Bering, who trembled slightly.

It wasn't a long time, at least before Bering on the table woke up, the Grey Man opened the door to the room and left Bering's cramped room.

At the end of the "stage", there is only so much to come.

As the Gray Man backhanded the door of the room, the originally brightly lit room was extinguished and re-hidden in the darkness.

It's as if everything before was a dream.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Bering, who was standing outside the tide and was pulled into this world, gently touched the mask on his face.

He seemed to have thought of something, his eyes flashing through the blue gems.

Soon, a voice came from behind him: "This is everything that has happened to you." ”

Bering turned his head.

He noticed that at some point, the oath-breaker was already standing behind him, and his long hair had been tied together by some unknown hair rope.

Twisting a strand of his hair, the oath-breaker said calmly, "As I said before, you are nothing more than a poor scapegoat, forced to become a so-called 'prophet' for the sake of the selfish desires of that man. ”

Lowering his hair, the oath-breaker spoke to Bering: "After all, you didn't have to bear all this. It's just that the original one you were scared and ran away from it, so you were forced to take the position. If you hadn't come to this place, I'm afraid you would be living a boring but peaceful life now, right? ”

"You don't have to go through so much trouble and pain, and you don't have to look at those painful experiences over and over again in the future, and you don't lose ......yourself in foreknowledge," said the oathbreaker, "and after all, this is not what you should do. ”

She smiled at Bering and said, "Give up, give up everything you're going to do next." As the people in the play, your vision is limited to the plane. From the perspective of a bystander, your actions are not meaningless, but they can also be said to have little effect. ”

"I think you probably knew that you would have to go to the Abyss to wipe out the xenomorphs once and for all," she said, "but do you know what that means? In the abyss, no 'law' has been destroyed so far. Just ask about the shadow on your little white face, and as part of the door god, it probably knows this very well. ”

"So, these are impossible tasks for you. Not to mention that the elimination of the law is something that has never happened since ancient times, what can you, a human being, do about the ethereal law? ”

Raising his hand, the oath-bearer smiled and said, "Looking forward to cutting off the origin of xenos with a knife in your hand, just like slashing people?" If it were that simple, then in the abyss, those alien species that occupied the law would not attack each other, but they would be at peace. ”

"Both mental and material can cause harm, but the law ...... Do you think you can completely eliminate a physical formula, a mathematical symbol? It's not about removing it in the human sense, it's about actually removing this variable from the universe. Can you imagine pulling out a knife against pure 'temperature' and 'flame' and solving all this? ”

The oath-breaker sighed: "So this is simply impossible, the origin of xenos cannot be destroyed, and after the appearance of the origin in the future, the number of xenos will increase and increase, until the human race is finally completely destroyed." In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the future was so severe, how could you have given up on yourself and dumped all this on you? ”

"So give up, and if you choose to give up now, then I can give you a promise," the oath breaker held out his hand, "and I can save you and the life of those you have chosen." It's not hard for me – not even for a period of time in the future, 'not too many origins', let alone me who has touched this box a long time ago. As long as I make a commitment, then no one will do anything to you. ”

"It's the perfect choice for you, and the only thing you have to pay for is ...... It's just the insignificant conscience of what you once said. ”

"I don't need you to join me," she whispered, "I just need one less opponent - I've waited a long time and don't want to waste any more twists and turns." ”

This sounds logical.

According to the oathbreaker, the reason she came to persuade Bering to surrender was that she wanted Bering not to stop her, just let her perform by herself.

After all, if Bering intervenes to stop it, the time for the oathbreaker to achieve the "origin" may be much later. And if Bering didn't get his hands dirty......

Then the "Pale Lady", the second origin in the diary, I am afraid that it will appear step by step.

That's why the oath-breaker will choose to negotiate terms with Bering after a fight with Bering.

Look at the outstretched hand of the oathbreaker.

Listen to the sincere words of the oathbreaker.

Bering silently turned his head, his eyes looking at the small room that had lost its light from behind the rolling waves.

After a while.

He turned his head back and refocused his gaze on the oathbreaker's face.

When you see the calm but sincere face of the oathbreaker.

Bering suddenly laughed.

He didn't respond immediately, but said something else: "You know what? When I first came into this world, I was really shocked. ”

"Of course, that's understandable," he said, "after all, whoever suddenly sees a pool of blood and a pistol next to him will freeze." So, the 'future' you showed me is quite familiar to me, after all, I haven't been back to my home for a long time, and I've been living in the base lately. ”

Gently touching his mask, the corners of Bering's mouth hooked slightly: "But you probably don't know a little." ”

Pointing to his chest, he smiled at the Oathbreaker, "In my memory, the original 'me' shot me in the chest, not in the head. ”

"So it's a pity, although what you said is extravagant, but if you can't pay attention to such a little detail, then I will only think that all this is made up by you, no matter what means are used, its authenticity needs to be verified."

Shrugging his shoulders, Bering said, "Therefore, everything you said naturally loses its due effect. After all, even the most basic things are made up, so how much truth can be built on all this? ”

"So why don't we talk openly and honestly," he said calmly, "just talk, when will you be completely pulled into the water by me and become my new pet?" ”

Listen to Bering's words.

The oathbreaker, who had a smile on his face, restrained his smile.

She sighed softly: "It's a pity. ”

"I still feel disgusted by the fact that I don't want to accept the truth and cling to what I see," she said. ”

Hearing this, Bering under the mask smiled and said, "We have not had the soil for harmony from the beginning. ”

As soon as this sentence fell.

Soon, the figures of the two people swept up!
