Chapter 49: Star God

Otto didn't respond immediately, for she sensed that the great being in front of her seemed to be overzealous with her. According to Otto's understanding, the so-called great existence should be the kind of life that transcends the definition of human beings, and for ordinary people, such existence is unimaginable and incomprehensible to ordinary people. Otto thinks her knowledge is among the best among the more than 6 billion people in the world, but she doesn't think she can understand it. Therefore, when a great being stands in front of him, Otto does not expect to be able to quickly understand the meaning of the language spoken by the other party, nor does he expect his request to be immediately responded to by the other party. But the result is exactly what Otto had envisioned.

She saw the great being as she imagined. Such an existence doesn't seem to have too much of a condescending attitude towards itself.,It seems to be very kind.。 The moment he saw himself again, he told Otto all the future he saw. This made Alto also very incomprehensible, it is still the same metaphor as before, for a person, he does not care about the ant under his feet, even if the ant does his best, does his best, wants to express his demands and desires to humans. Humans and ants are two species, and the life classes between them are very different. And there should be such a thick barrier between a human being and such a great being that surpasses ordinary people.

As if guessing Otto's thoughts, the black shadow sat down gently. As he sat down, a chair appeared in front of Alto, opposite the black figure. Otto knew what the black figure was thinking, and sat down in his chair gently. The two of them are like old friends who haven't seen each other in years.

The black figure said, "For ordinary people, it is impossible to understand my state. But you, Otto, your wisdom is enough to be praised by me on the entire human planet, on the entire planet, on the entire earth, and even extending this to the universe. Otto, do you think great people must be on top? What kind of people can be called great, and what kind of people can be called beyond humanity? ”

Otto heard this question and thought to himself. Undoubtedly, if one were to ask Otto what kind of person could be called beyond humanity, the first answer that came to Alto's mind would be a man of power. The current human race is constantly moving in the direction of superhuman because of the emergence of Honkai energy. Because of this special energy of Honkai, many experiments that could not be done theoretically can now be completed. Humans can have power beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and the current Valkyrie is. As long as the Valkyrie experiment is completed and the Taixu Sword Qi is introduced, then the Valkyrie's physical fitness can be aggressive, surpassing those Olympic champions. Many world records that are unimaginable to ordinary people can be easily broken. And if such humans continue to evolve, there is no doubt that one day humans will be able to surpass this planet. And such a person is undoubtedly a person with power.

However, Otto soon placed the condition of strength on one of the conditions of a great being beyond the ordinary, for strength alone is obviously not beyond the scope of the human being.

If we want to talk about transcending humanity, then perhaps we have to talk about the definition of human beings themselves. The definition of modern humans, if biologically speaking, can only be a species of primate hominidae. However, if those fusion warriors are counted, genetically speaking, these fusion warriors are actually not human, and even carbon-based creatures are barely human.

If we don't define it biologically, we may define it in terms of spirituality and culture. Can we be considered human beings if we can communicate and understand each other's thoughts and cooperate as a human race? In the ancient times of Shenzhou, the definition of human beings was that there were historical classics, and animals who could use historical classics as mirrors for self-reflection, so they could be called human beings. In this sense, human beings are creatures that can constantly reflect on themselves and make progress.

If human beings continue to evolve in this way, perhaps one day human beings will emit technology beyond the imagination of modern human beings, moral norms beyond the imagination of modern human beings, and mental states beyond the imagination of human beings. Thinking of this, Alto suddenly understood why this great being in front of him seemed so kind. Because such creatures may also have a moral definition that transcends human beings. Modern humans may crush ants to death when they see them, but some people are very attentive to the weak creatures that are constantly crawling under their feet, and even when they walk, they are careful not to hurt each other. And the great creatures that transcend the definition of human beings may also be very careful with weak humans like themselves.

Otto remembered that when he first saw this great being, he could not see the essence of the other at all, only a deep darkness. But after the other party noticed him, he slowly appeared with a mentality that he could understand. Does this mean that the other party also attaches great importance to a weak human like himself? Alto's heartbeat slowly accelerated. This is a good thing. Faced with a choice between a great being who doesn't care about humanity and a great being who cares deeply about humanity, Otto naturally wants to choose the latter. Not only does this mean that Otto is safer in front of the other party, but it also means that the answers that Otto wants can be answered more easily.

Thinking of this, Otto said: "The great being who transcends mankind must be beyond humanity in all aspects, not only in strength, but also in thought. In terms of morality, it must also be beyond human beings. I think that's probably one of the answers. ”

The Great Being seemed to appreciate Otto's understanding, and he nodded and said, "Your understanding is not wrong. But why is it one of the answers? ”

Otto replied very seriously: "Because I am just an ordinary person, an ordinary human being. I am still in the definition of human beings, so I cannot define the great beings beyond human beings by my own understanding of my own thoughts. I think that the moral norms of great beings must surpass human beings, but no one defines that the transcendence of moral norms must be good. Maybe there is no morality, but it can be regarded as a kind of morality. ”

Otto Apokalis understood that the definition of morality is nothing more than that given by human beings. In the midst of the great beings beyond humanity, what morality is is still a mystery. Otto does not take it upon himself to have a moral definition of all great beings, or even the great beings in front of him, because of this seemingly polite humanoid creature in front of him.

Sure enough, after hearing Otto's words, the Great Being also smiled with satisfaction. He said, "Beings like me, if we are to be divided by the definition of human beings, are indeed divided into two categories. It can also be divided into good and evil, or neutral. You can call us star gods, but not every star god is full of kindness to human beings, and some star gods are the source of the destruction of the world just by existing.

Otto, the answer you want to know is that I can tell you. In the world of trees and seas, the laws of this world determine that consciousness can be rematched to new containers, but do not allow containers to collect consciousness that has already dissipated. That is, if a person dies at the moment, you can transfer their soul to a container in any way, maybe a clone or a robot. But you can't make a clone without consciousness, and re-transfer the consciousness of a person who has lost it and has dissipated into the body of that person. ”

Otto's words shocked Otto, but they also made Otto seem to understand something. Because she has done all kinds of experiments in the past, and she has also asked scientists like Mebius to conduct all kinds of research. Destiny's current technology can support anyone to transfer her consciousness, perhaps to a computer, and become a cyber from now on; Or move into a new shell and usher in a new life.

However, no matter what research has found, once a person's consciousness has completely died, as long as her consciousness has dissipated, it is impossible to reproduce the person's consciousness by any means. Vilvey once thought about copying a person's memory consciousness into a computer, and then resuming the memory consciousness from the computer when the person died, and injecting a new body and so on. This experiment was jointly researched and explored by Vilvie and Mebius, but the end result was inconclusive. No one knew if the newborn shell was the original person or a new replica. Philosophically, the latter is more likely.

Otto didn't know it before, but now she knew from the Star God's words that their previous experiments had indeed failed completely. Otto soon began to think about how Karen could be resurrected if the dead could not be resurrected. Otto did not give up because in the course of 500 years, Otto had failed many times. If you give up just because of one failure, you may not have Alto 500 years later. Even if the world doesn't allow Karen to be resurrected, Otto will think of a new way.

In the past, no matter what difficulties he faced, Otto would convince himself to calm down and move on. But now, in front of such a great being as Star God, after learning the laws of this world from the other party's mouth, Alto still has a strong sense of frustration in his heart. Soon, however, Otto thought of other options, other ways that could be accomplished.

First of all, the first point is to use the power of Honkai. Honkai is omnipotent, and the development of human science and technology has been inseparable from Honkai to the present. What if Honkai could be used to let Alto travel 500 years ago? After all, the Star God only said that the world does not allow containers to collect souls that have dissipated, but he did not say that humans are not allowed to travel to 500 years ago. If she had prevented Karen's death 500 years ago, there would be no need to resurrect her, as she had not died in the first place. However, there is no doubt that such a path may be more difficult than the resurrection of Karen.

Another way, Otto also thought of, is the star god in front of him. The power of the star gods surpasses that of humans, and the knowledge possessed by the star gods also surpasses that of humans. Even Vervi and Mebius, who are at the pinnacle of intelligence among the human race, and perhaps this newcomer, Dr. May, the intelligence of these people cannot be compared to that of the Star God. With the fact that human beings can't think of a way to resurrect Karen, and can't think of a way to bypass the laws of this world, the star god may not be impossible.

Otto also remembered Aponia, who had predicted his own tragic future. Imagine if she hadn't come to see the star god, Otto would have never known from the beginning that the world would not allow containers to collect souls that had already dissipated, and she would continue to act according to her own ideas. And there is no doubt that Otto's approach will undoubtedly cause considerable damage to the humanity of this event. Even those Valkyries who have always supported them may end up rebelling against her. And in the process, I may think that I may know the laws of the world. Then without knowing the star god, Otto's only way is to find a way to go back 500 years to reverse the past when Karen has died. It's just that Otto still doesn't understand why Apoña would say that she is finally facing a tragic future. Did you fail, or did you fail in the first place?

Alto didn't expect it, but the star god in front of him seemed to know all of Otto's thoughts. He spoke, "If you want to go back 500 years and change the history of that holy woman's death, you don't have a problem with your thoughts. It's also possible to go back in time and open up a new timeline. However, you are ignoring the fact that the world of trees and seas itself is constantly moving forward. When a vulnerability is discovered, the tree and the sea will find a way to close the vulnerability. Changing the past can only be done once. That is to say, when you have changed the past in another world, another world, and changed the process and outcome of Karen's death, then even if you repeat any of the preparations that the other you have made, or even better than him, you will still face the result of failure in the end. ”

Otto's words dawned on Otto, and she understood why Apoña had said that about herself. It seems that Apoña already knew the cause and effect of the incident.

However, instead of communicating with Aponia, Otto now hopes that he can communicate more directly with the star god, the star god is really excellent, at least much better than a riddler like Aponia, at least the star god can directly respond to the questions he gave, and Aponia will only say how miserable your future is.
