53. Once Upon a Time in the Commune
After completing the transfer, Liu'e conducted a series of examinations on Li Oz and determined that he had completed the promotion to the Gamma rank and was in stable physical condition.
But this comes at a cost.
Click.
He was shackled and removed from his weapons and communications equipment, and placed in a transparent glass room to be monitored 24 hours a day.
He was injected with his genetic code and temporarily banned from using the Arcane.
Everything here is fixed, with no sharp edges and corners, to prevent him from committing suicide, and every hour, Liu'e sends a message with gravitational waves, asking him to cooperate with the experiment - in fact, to monitor Lioz's behavior.
For the sequence of Ao, Liu'e attaches great importance to it in her heart, she herself is the holder of the [Gravity] Ao, and she understands the harm of gravity quite well.
In particular, Li Oz also holds two sequence levels, and the degree of harm is much higher than that of ordinary people.
Fortunately, Liu'e is not an unreasonable person, and she promised that this kind of protective detention will be lifted after a period of time, according to Li Aozi's situation.
This situation reminded Li Oz of the underworld humanity, and I don't know why, the path of the [Juggernaut] system is full of this kind of plot like 'entering the laboratory by mistake, and being arrested as a test subject for research'.
Fortunately, this time, he doesn't need to perform and self-harm like he did during the Underworld Humane period. In the abyss, the Life Commune also belongs to a rare organization with a relatively good conscience and public morality.
Liu'e is not young anymore, her energy and operation are a little unable to keep up, her own research alone is a little inadequate, and now there is an extra Li Aozi to deal with, which is somewhat inadequate.
Because of this, Li Aozi noticed that Liu'e took the initiative to contact his student subordinates.
"Carvert, I've got a project ...... here"
Liu'e's words had their own reverberation effect, and Li Oz, who was also a gravitational wave resonant, heard the communication between them very clearly.
"I'm sorry, mentor, I'm already married, and I don't want to be involved in the affairs of the commune."
"However, this time is different, I have also quit the company-"
Unlike the brutality and decisiveness of Li Oz, Liu'e looked pitiful in front of her students, like an ordinary old man without crutches and reading glasses.
"I'm sorry, but it's not a matter of quitting." The newsletter lamented: "We have suffered a great loss, and the president has resigned because of it, and now I don't want to have anything to do with the Commune." ”
"Don't-"
Before Liu'e could finish speaking, the communication over there had already hung up.
Standing in the glass room, Li Oz asked curiously:
"You don't have a good relationship with the students?"
"It's none of your business." Liu'e choked angrily, and then continued to call another communication.
"Hey ......"
As soon as the communication was connected, Liu'e changed her tone almost instantly, and shouted cordially:
"Ellen, it's me! Liu'e, if you have time, come to me, I need you. ”
"Teacher Liu'e?!"
However, on the other end of the phone, it was full of disgust and disgust:
"Are you still continuing your research on the Commune? Please, give up, do you still want the tragedy to happen again? ”
"Not this time, at least not this time. Believe me, the 'scourge' was just an accident, and we're not going in the wrong direction—"
She lowered her head slightly, and continued to call.
"Sim, I'll pay for it, come and help."
"You made the 'scourge god' thing, do you still want to get close to us? I wouldn't have anything to do with a scientific lunatic like you who cares about human life. ”
"It's not like that, Sim!"
Liu'e was anxious to stomp her feet, but immediately stood in place, stunned.
Li Oz took the opportunity to ask, "What is the God of Calamity?" Both of them mentioned it. ”
"A misunderstanding." Liu'e muttered, "I shouldn't have been. It's all a misunderstanding...... The president understands me. ”
After saying that, she turned her head and glared at Li Aozi fiercely with a ripple of nothingness without a head:
"What does it have to do with you?"
"I just don't think you have a good relationship with your students." Li Oz snorted: "Actually, I'm not very good at dealing with people. I also have very few friends, especially women, who are basically dead. ”
"Do you think that's ridiculous? Want to win my sympathy in this way? ”
"Nope." Li Oz sat on the ground and smiled faintly: "I just want to say that it's a good thing that someone cares, and you have such a bad relationship with the students, and you insist that this is a misunderstanding - don't you want to make up for this regret?" ”
[You have started a 'persuasion', and due to insufficient opinion, a [charisma] test will be conducted.] 】
"I don't need you to care."
Liu'e said coldly:
"No matter how good I am, I'm better than you."
[[Charm] Failed]
Liu'e turned her head and continued to call again:
"Luo Ming, you promised me, come over now."
"No problem, Mr. Liu'e, this is a favor I owe to you......"
Liu'e has a bad relationship with the students, and most of the people who come are people who owe favors and are reluctant.
This is an advantageous condition, Li Oz quietly remembered in his heart.
Taking advantage of every opportunity to communicate, Li Aozi took the opportunity to communicate with Liu'e:
"When will I be free?"
"Maybe today, maybe tomorrow, depending on whether your authority is out of control."
Liu'e replied lazily while operating the instrument.
"There should be a lot of people who hold sequence-level arcane abilities, right? Why don't you leave them alone? ”
"I can't beat it, otherwise I would have gone early."
"Then are you doing this because of the 'God of Woe'?"
"It's okay to ask less about this kind of topic."
"Well, it looks like the god of scourge is an interesting thing."
Li Oz didn't care, he shook his neck, and directly activated the talent of the Elai Spirit Clan's [Super Sensory Thinking].
[You consume one bar of Concentration, and perform a [Intelligence] test for the problem you are in. 】
[Passed the verification.] 】
There was a lot of information in his mind, which was the content of the conversation between Liu'e and the students, almost intuitively, and he immediately picked out the relevant points.
"Let me guess...... The god of calamity was a project of the commune, but for some reason, the operation was wrong, which led to a serious accident. Your students have been devastated, and many have been left with serious psychological shadows and blamed you for it. ”
As soon as Li Aozi's words fell, Liu'e instantly tore through the spatial ripples and appeared outside the door, even though there was no head, Li Aozi could still detect her sight trying to kill.
But Leoz was undaunted and continued:
"It was that accident that led to the dissolution of the Commune, right?"
Liu'e stared at him.
Two people without brains, instead focused their eyes at this moment, collided fiercely across time and space, and did not give an inch.
For half a minute, Liu'e was the first to break the silence.
"I didn't do anything wrong."
Liu'e said coldly:
"I am worthy of the Commune, worthy of the victims, worthy of this universe."
"You're right? So why are you covering it up? Instead of explaining it to your own students, you're here chirping with an outsider I've known for less than four hours — I can't figure it out, either you're a masochist or you're weak-minded. ”
Li Aozi counted it accurately and poked it hard at Liu'e's pain point:
Or are you afraid to confront students who question you? Because you know you're sorry for them, you don't dare to speak, they don't want to believe you at all, ah, I see, you must have lost credibility in other people's places because of some bad behavior—"
"Enough!"
Liu'e raised her fist and the back of her hand lit up with an echoing blade, but soon, her reputation as a scientist restored her composure.
She turned, crossed her hands on her hips, and sighed, followed by a long silence.
"That's not my fault."
Liu'e sat down in the void, and the entire basement was captured by her gravity, and she entered a state of weightlessness, floating everywhere.
She slowly spat out the words, explaining her reason:
"You also know that the purpose of the Life Commune is so that the people of the whole Xingyuan can live forever, get rid of the dependence on the path, and get rid of the desire for God, right?"
"Well, actually, I don't think there's anything bad about it now...... "Isn't it good that the emergence of the path gives everyone the opportunity to ascend to the gods and achieve near-eternal life by their own efforts?" ”
"Really?" Liu'e sneered: "But who is in the hands of the path?" ”
Li Oz subconsciously said: "Narrative-level civilization." ”
"Thirteen narrative-level civilizations, mastering the upper and lower six layers of star abyss, six factions, and the ascent channels of trillions of people, can only come out in the end, a few thousand, hundreds of gods—do you think this is fair?"
Li Aozi was stunned: "This doesn't seem to be a big problem." Those who can get to that position are some elites. ”
"But I think there's a fair way."
Liu'e playfully said:
"The path is equal to everyone, but the nobles of the family, the children of the chaebols, the academic masters, the senior generals, the descendants of the divine blood - these people are more equal than ordinary people."
"After these people are elites, it is natural to have this resource."
"Who are the elites? What is Elite? Liu'e said coldly: "Their ancestors are elites, what does it have to do with themselves?" ”
"You always rely on your own cultivation."
"You have a father who is a narrative civilization archon, and I have a serf mother from a primitive and uncivilized planet, and you tell me that the two of us are equal on the path?"
Liu'e crossed her fingers with her hands and said sarcastically:
"Silly boy, you have to understand that this universe has never been fair. Human existence is that there are classes and three, six, nine and so on. Where there is no class, it is called "society". ”
"Wait, wait!"
Li Oz raised his hand and combed it:
"That is, you are not willing to join [society] and become a citizen without ego?"
"Do you want to go? To give a monster that eats civilization as a cell in its body? ”
"Then, you want to compete with the elite class of rich children of narrative civilization to compete for the end of the road?"
Li Oz asked cautiously.
"That's what it's like to be alive."
"yes, that's what it means to be alive." Li Oz spread his hands: "You want to enjoy the same classless competition as [society], and you also want to ascend to the gods of eternity in the narrative-level civilization - how can there be such a good thing?" ”
"yes." Liu'e replied calmly, "Of course." ”
"—you dream."
"I'm not kidding."
Liu'e said lightly:
"Once upon a time, there was such a person, or rather, a deity, who told us about this possibility. A way to enjoy eternal life while maintaining a sense of self-independence......"
"Don't tell me I'm joining [society]."
"Hey, little imp, you know by now that Ao Neng is the authority of the Creator, right?"
Liu'e stretched out her hand and wrote down various nouns and relationships in the air:
"The Creator is eternal, and we all know that. Those who came from outside, the main gods of the six factions, the creators of the universe beyond the six abysses, had lived for countless years before they arrived. If it weren't for the killing of the Destroyers, they would never have died. ”
"In other words, becoming a Creator is itself a matter of eternal life."
Li Oz remained silent.
"Now, we know that the sequence arcane energy is the authority of the Creator, the fundamental law of the universe, especially the first ten sequences, so to speak, they make up the entire universe."
"If we collect the ten sequence arcane abilities and combine them into a primordial supreme arcane energy...... Aha, that's the Creator's authority! You can avoid the path, avoid the path monopolized by narrative-level civilization, and avoid the competition with bureaucrats. ”
Her tone grew frenzied, more and more excited:
"Don't forget, the Ao Neng itself can be 'loaned' to others at will."
"If we synthesize that ultimate Supreme Arcane and put it in a body that is absolutely good, absolutely loyal to the people of the lower and the people of the Abyss—"
Liu'e smiled:
"Ah, narrative civilization isn't much now."
"The order of the universe will be rewritten, society, narrative—all this will be changed again, and the final beautiful illusion of equality will be realized."
"I know you're going to question it - but don't forget, there's no threshold for using the Arcane."
"As long as there is one person who enjoys this power, and his conscience is sufficient, he can share it with all."
"At that point, the pattern of the division of gods and the narrative level of hegemony will be rewritten. Ordinary people can play and compete fairly with those bureaucrats and nobles - in fact, at that point, do you say that competition is still necessary? ”
Liu'e playfully said:
It was with this ideal in mind that the Commune struggled. Our ideals are nobler than the noblest cause of the universe, because our ideals are born out of the aspirations of the most ordinary mortals. ”
"Haven't you thought that such a powerful arcane energy would also destroy the entire universe in an instant?"
Li Aozi couldn't help but ask:
"You all know that it's the authority of the Creator, and the harm is probably ten thousand times higher than my serial level!"
"I know, but someone has confirmed it for us, and the authority of the Supreme Arcane is not dangerous."
"Who?"
"The Lord God of the Domination lineage, the Creator of the Lord of the universe: Murphytria is His Substitute."
Liu'e calmly uttered His name:
"[God of Reality] Leoz."
