A long silence ensued.

10032-2 didn't speak, neither did Zhang Jie and Liuli on the other side, each of them was thinking about what Yang Yun said, thinking about what it represented, and what it compared with and understood by No. 10032's behavior.

Yang Yun thought about the two sentences on the monument, and also thought about the "Beginning of Death" he had seen, and his tone gradually brought a certain strength, a certain will that finally became steel after being tempered: "The past of human beings is from nothing, from weak to strong, from the bottom of the food chain, step by step to the highest point...... This is by no means because of the 'great man from heaven', but because of the efforts and struggles, blood, tears and sacrifices of countless ordinary human beings over the years, heroes and heroes were finally born. ”

"But heroes are always a minority, the strong are always a minority, and the group of all the strong cannot be sustained after all, they cannot be called 'civilization' and 'race'."

"In a civilization, the vast majority of existences will eventually be weak, these weak people will not have the firm will of the strong, they will be timid, they will be afraid, they just want to live a stable life, spend this ordinary life, even if they can't understand the meaning of life, they want to live......"

Yang Yun seemed to be explaining 10032-2, and seemed to be talking to himself: "And it is these weak and mediocre people, together with a few strong people, that together form a race, form a civilization, and form a civilized fire, so the torch is passed down from generation to generation." ”

"People take up arms, just so that the people who protect don't have to take up arms, and the soldiers fight to defend their homes and the country, so that ordinary people can smile and usher in a better tomorrow. For this purpose, they fought the darkness, the erosion, and all kinds of monsters...... The purpose of fighting is to protect ordinary people, not to wipe them out along with evil. ”

"If you force them to bear the price of this erosion and to kill them, then sooner or later, your heart will become hard as iron in the choice of one choice after another, and you will take sacrifice and abandonment for granted, human life as a mere number, and save the plane as the simplest choice questions...... And this evil result will one day come back to you. ”

"Killing to save is at best a pathetic marathon of running while vomiting blood."

——In the name of salvation, but only sacrifice and choice, there will be people who will continue to be abandoned, abandoned, optimized, and sacrificed.

- In the end, the person who makes the choice chooses to sacrifice himself in order to complete his final salvation in the few remaining teams; Or in the bloody future of being alone and piling up corpses around him, he ushered in his own end miserably.

"As I said, it's also an option."

Despite a momentary hesitation, SCP-10032-2 shook his head in denial, "Choosing to sacrifice, choosing to give up, choosing to trade one's own or someone else's life for the end result." As long as you can save more people, you can win in the end......"

"If you only seek the 'result' of saving the world, then you will not see the 'truth'."

Yang Yun seems to be talking to himself, as if he has crossed the curtain of time, and is evaluating some things that have happened and those that have not yet happened: "In this world, any way to win through sacrifice and abandonment is actually just a shortcut, a loan to the future, which will be repaid one day." ”

- Therefore, with the help of his partners, Zheng Zhe, who won the final battle, regards finding a way to resurrect his partner as the biggest goal in his life.

——Therefore, Pei Jiao chose to smash Jiuzhou Ding at the last moment of the unity of Jiuding in exchange for the return of his partners.

"Yes, that's right."

Zhang Jie also cleared his thoughts, because he didn't think deeply, although he instinctively realized that there was something wrong with 10032-2's way of thinking, he didn't find the deep-seated reason, he didn't know where the problem was, and he didn't know what the right path was, but now Yang Yun's statement made him suddenly enlightened: "You should never regard sacrifice as a means, human life as a weight, and everything on both ends of the scale to be measured, to choose and decide the fate of others...... That's arrogant! ”

"It's not arrogance."

10032-2 shifted his gaze to Zhang Jie and retorted, "This is my judgment as a wise man, and my responsibility as a savior. ”

"When you say the word 'savior,' it's already a kind of arrogance."

Yang Yun said calmly: "The savior in your mouth is born to put yourself in a higher position. Because the name of the Messiah, in itself, means charity to the weaker beings, and it means that you want to arrogantly decide their lives. ”

"What's wrong with that?" 10032-2 quickly replied, "Ignorance is not a sin, the weak are, and the strong should save the weak, what's wrong with this view?" ”

"Not to save, but to help; It is not charity from above, but empathetic care; It's not about deciding the life and death of others like a god, it's about letting go of your body, blending in, and making everything better. ”

Yang Yun stared at the cold woman in front of him and said softly: "This world doesn't need one, or a group of saviors from heaven. The ordinary people who are unarmed and have no power to resist the ghosts, they need help, they need guidance, they need someone to teach them out of the quagmire...... But they don't need condescending 'charity' and 'salvation'. ”

“…… You say, "Our salvation all along, is charity?" ”

10032-2's eyes widened a little, and even if she had no emotion in her heart, she couldn't help but feel an emotion called "anger" at the moment...... The man in front of him, after denying the meaning of her birth, is he going to deny what she has done, the deeds that saved the world?

"I have no intention of denying the years you fought for."

Yang Yun's voice was softer: "I also admire your efforts, you regard the erosion of the world by Dark Gaia as your responsibility, tirelessly searching for the eroded plane, and in the long-term rescue, you have gradually developed the habit of pursuing efficiency, and you can't wait to spend every minute and every second saving the new plane...... Am I right? ”

"Yes, we've saved six hundred and forty-eight planes so far."

With a wave of 10032-2's palm, a large pile of data appeared in front of her: "The information of these worlds is recorded in the database, and we have carefully ensured that every sin has been removed, and we have set up a foolproof seal to ensure that the natives do not inadvertently trigger ......"

"When people who know nothing live in the sun, we must fight them in the shadows and prevent them from being exposed to the public eye, so that others can live in a sane, ordinary world!"
