Chapter 335: Light - Neutrality - Darkness (Medium)
Using the Dark Dominator and Sophia's Lifeform to create a tense atmosphere for the Earth and keep the Earth's civilization moving forward sounds a bit anti-human
It was the first time that the witch had participated in such a meeting in the true sense of the word, and it was also the first time for him to know what Casto and Keigo Masaki and others were thinking, Casto looked at the witch and smiled, "Doesn't it seem a little ridiculous, in a sense, what we people here want to do is the same as you Kiri Elrod people." ”
Not knowing what to say, the witch paused before speaking, "Our original purpose was to come to human society and lead humanity to a better future. In fact, he just hid himself in the shadows. ”
"But that's not all, little girl." Director Sawai shook his head, "Do you think you would have succeeded if you hadn't joined us?" ”
"I don't know." The witch lowered her head, looked at the logo of the police station on her clothes, and said honestly, "In the past, I may have thought that we could do it, but as I understand more and more about human society, I think human beings will not agree.
Even if we, the Kiri Elrods, told humanity that the Earth was about to be destroyed, humanity would not choose to follow us out of Earth. ”
The witch looked up at the others, "It's not just because we're different individuals like Kiri Elrod and humans, but because of something else. ”
"It's good that you understand this." Castor shrugged, "You know, it took Keigo Masaki a lot more time than you to feel that humans have such emotions. ”
"Human beings are naturally rebellious, and it is impossible for human beings to remain rational forever.
If we tell them that as long as the whole society works together, in a hundred years, human society will enter a brand-new, very advanced society that no one has ever imagined, then maybe there will indeed be a large group of people who choose to follow us at the beginning, just like when the concept of TPC was first proposed, everyone was willing to move forward towards a better world for an invisible and intangible wish.
But time can make all the difference. ”
"Humph! Thankfully, you did not single-handedly convert all of humanity into your followers, into your part earlier. Keigo Masaki snorted and looked at the witch, "If you really did this while humanity was still unenlightened, then there would be only one result, and when humanity began to doubt their choice, your Kiri Ellod civilization would be destroyed." ”
"How is it possible, we Kiri Elrodians share the same mind, if we could have made all of humanity believe in Kiri Elrod earlier, then we would also be able to see the horrors of the Ruler of Darkness."
"Little girl, do you really think that sharing of ideas can ensure the unity of mankind?" Sawai smiled,
"Humans are transformed into Kiri Elrods, and then the thoughts are shared, so that everyone can be guaranteed not to question? while
At a certain moment, a certain person appears, and he inadvertently thinks of a certain possibility, for example, when they do not believe in you, but stay on earth and live as human beings, that scene will appear in their minds, and with it, some kind of revolt will also appear, and then it will intensify"
"Human beings have the destructive impulse to destroy everything, this is human instinct, it is innate."
Sawai glanced out the window a little helplessly, "When human beings are individuals, they may have a side that tends to be perfect, but when they form a group, they only need a gentle push from some of them, so the other side of human perfection will be exposed as a destroyer.
Even, human instinct is mixed with a tendency to self-destruction, and it is impossible to make the human world move forward without the action of external forces, relying only on a certain leader. ”
"Wait? So we don't have to be the Kiri Elodians either."
"Oh? What Kiri Elrod people? Sawai gave a rather playful expression as he turned to the witch and said, "Aren't you a minority of the future Earth Federation?" ”
"Wait? Why don't we know about this? Keigo Masaki turned his head to look at Sawai.
"Didn't I tell you? Do you remember what I said earlier, about the origin of the policy towards the Kiri Elrods? For example, what is the final result of changing the land and returning it to the stream? ”
"Tsk, make the Kiri Elrods a minority? Old man Sawai, it's you. Casto glanced at the other.
Sawai smiled and waved his hand, "But those are all things in the future, and when the day comes, I don't know if the old man is still alive." ”
"Don't worry, old fellow, if one day you really die, I will definitely take out your brain and find a water tank to raise you." Masaki Keigo sneered, "You are a precious treasure of mankind, if it were you, I would be willing to lower my bottom line a little and do something against human ethics." ”
"Well, actually, I think that people can't be resurrected after death" Director Sakai was taken aback by Masaki Keigo's words, and was about to defend himself, but the witch spoke, "Actually, I can also find you a suitable Kiri Elrod person at that time, don't worry, you won't be able to die even if you want to." ”
Listening to the words of Keigo Masaki and the witch, I don't know why, the eyes of the others slowly looked at Casto,
Casto shrugged, "I don't know, I'm just an ordinary person, and I don't have any super intelligence, I can't be like them, I don't have any way to make people immortal if you die, but don't worry, old man, if you really die, I will definitely write a biography for you, but the content in it may be a little dark, I don't know if it can be published." ”
Sawai:.
Taking a deep breath, a strange thought flashed through Sawai's mind, he decided to go to the gym after work to work out, and after living for such an age, for the first time, he felt that the world after death seemed to be even more terrifying.
"Well, now I know, the Dark Dominator and Sophia's Lifeform are naturally hostile, but as it happens, this hostility is something we can exploit." Nanyuan redirected the conversation back on the right path.
Castor nodded, then glanced at Keigo Masaki, "Someone who didn't want to be named did something small on Earth before, and it also affected some innocent righteous people, I said that his actions had nothing to do with me, but because of his actions, I have some thoughts. ”
"Of course, unlike that kind of idiot who tries to create a 'god' through some kind of power, I don't want future humans to live under the protection of someone." Casto's tone was filled with mockery of his previous plans for himself in another universe, and he said,
"Whether it is human beings themselves, or the 'god' that has been created, both sides are uncontrollable, human beings will not accept a so-called protector, maybe a year, maybe ten years, after all, one day, human beings will try to seize the power of 'god',
And perhaps before that, God had already gone into deterioration. ”
"Hey! We agree that you can hide something, but you better tell the story, right? Yoshioka said with some dissatisfaction, "What 'god', what kind of people who don't want to reveal their names, who are they?" ”
Nanyuan shook his fan and nodded, "Yes, otherwise, you tell us a little more, and we promise not to say it." ”
"Yes, yes, we believe in you." Director Sawai shook his head sadly, "Why are you always wary of us?" ”
"Before you say this kind of nonsense, I hope you can control the number of satellites that stop on Lao Tzu's head every day." Masaki Keigo glanced coldly at a few old foxes, "Lao Tzu is at the headquarters of Kumamoto, and a total of ten people have been commended this year, five of which were inserted by you!" ”
"Only five?" Sawai was stunned for a moment, then looked at Yoshioka and Nanyuan, "What's going on with your staff and police department?" In the private sector, can't it be in the top ten? ”
"Well, there's no possibility." Castor looked at Sawai speechlessly, "Old man, the people you sent out are all 'administrative staff', and Keigo Masaki's company is a high-tech company, five people, which is already outrageous"
Before Sakai could speak, Yoshioka was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Don't say it earlier, in this case, you should change your strategy, and it seems more appropriate to buy it. The staff really didn't plan well."
"Do you think we didn't do that?" Nanyuan directly covered his face with a fan, and whispered to Yoshioka, "Why do you think we can get the latest R&D direction of Keigo Masaki and their company every month?" ”
"Too much deception!" Keigo Masaki slapped the table and stood up, "You old foxes."
"I'll talk about you later, it's my time." Casto knocked on the table speechlessly, not giving others a chance to refute, Casto continued, "In short, I wonder if it is possible to use external threats to make human society more united. ”
"And then I realized, maybe it can be done."
"The light represented by Sophia – the neutrality of humanity – and the darkness represented by the Dominator of Darkness, on the surface, this is the status quo of the tripartite now."
"But actually, there's a lot more to it than just that." Castor pointed to the witch Saeki, then to the sky outside the window,
"The Kiri Elrods, the lightning people who have been sent away, the strange people of the human race, the unknown creatures who are accustomed to and integrated into the earth, and the invaders of the universe."
"On the surface, it doesn't seem like we're in one camp." Nanyuan thought for a moment and said, "But, to some extent, maybe it can be used to achieve a balance."
"That's right, in fact, this is also what you learned from you, old man, that you first borrowed the group of scientists to set off a wave of TPC around the world, then used public intellectuals to lead the masses, and finally made the military turn against the group of scientists in the TPC at a critical moment."
"Don't tell me so insidious, old man, boy!" Sawai looked at Casto with some dissatisfaction, "If you say this, wouldn't Staff Officer Nanyuan, who represents intellectuals, and Director Yoshioka, who represents the military, feel that they are very incompetent?" ”
Nanyuan:.
Yoshioka: ?
"Wait, so, what's next for us?" Saeki the witch felt like she had seen something from various perspectives, but she still didn't know what to do next.
"Don't worry, let me ask you a question first, how was Zoga's attitude before?"
"Not bad? I was involved with them when Kirino came into contact with them, and they seemed to be aware of the existence of the Kiri Elrods, but they seemed to treat us as part of the Earth, and they seemed to be quite the same? ”
"It's not bad, it looks like their attitude is similar to Sophia's lifeforms," Castor shrugged as the witch looked at her in shock, "It's a bit of a surprise that the Dark Rulers contacted us, but it's not like we can't get in touch with Sophia. ”
"Birds and horses chase them all day and night, didn't you see them when you went to the nest? How many lifeforms did Sophia send from Asuka and Horse? ”
"The purpose of both Sophia's lifeforms and the Dark Rulers is Earth, and their forces may be balanced, as if they were two equal sides on the scales,
Compared to them, our power seems to be a little smaller, but, in the end, the earth is ours, the Kiri Elrods, the humans, and others have not, and now we can't overpower any of them.
But if it's just to change their original balance, I think we can still do it. ”
The witch frowned and scratched her head, "Well, you mean, we're going to take our refuge with one of them and let them fight?" ”
Sawai seemed to have heard some simple joke, he smiled, and then shook his head, "It's not that we turn to them now, it's up to them to see how they plan to win us." ”
"Fight for us?" The witch looked at the people around her in disbelief, but found that all of them were not surprised by this sentence.
"Yes, I don't know how powerful Grandmother Sophia is, but I don't think he wants humanity to surrender Earth to the Dark Dominators.
On the contrary, the Dark Ruler should not want to, he slept well, and as soon as he suddenly opened his eyes, the earthlings had already brought a large group of cosmic monarchs to his home. ”
"The word Etaijun." Casto looked at Sawai with some uncertainty, "Old man, do you think it's appropriate for you to say it yourself as a neon man?" ”
Sawai didn't care about Casto's complaints, and continued, "The universe is very big and full of dangers, just the Max power system will attract invaders in the universe, under normal circumstances, if civilization develops step by step, it may not be able to fight against such an enemy,
However, if the power of Sophia and the Dark Dominator can be borrowed, perhaps human society can truly unite and find a way out. ”
The witch opened her mouth, she now had the urge to run back to the Kirielrod people as soon as possible, and run away with all the people.
Nan Yuan shook his fan, "The only problem now is that everything needs a beginning, but this beginning needs an opportunity, and this opportunity is far more dangerous than the plan after that, a carelessness may break the balance that now looms now." ”
"Hmph, wouldn't it be okay to go to war with the Naga directly against the Machinery Island." Masaki Keigo said disdainfully, "As long as we activate the Max power system, the mechanical island will start a war against the humans, and when the time comes, the Naga will also take advantage of the situation, and when the war really starts, everything will be logical." ”
"Or what if we go one step further?" Castor suddenly interrupted Keigo Masaki and said to the people around him,
"Do you remember what Old Man Sawai said before? Do you want them to take the initiative to win us? ”
"What do you mean?" Sawai was stunned for a moment, he did say that, but he didn't know what Casto had in mind.
Casto looked at Keigo Masaki, "Is the Artydis, now equipped with Max's power system, ready to be activated at any time?" ”
"Hmph, of course you can, with the help of my Masaki Keigo, all the calculations have already been completed, and the simulations have been done in the computer I don't know how many times, if it weren't for those guys being so cautious, our spaceship would have been in the sky a long time ago."
"In that case, that's right, as a weapon of cosmic consciousness, the mechanical island was sent to the solar system by Sophia's mother, Gran Sophia, and I feel that as a member of the earth, it is necessary for us to inform the servants of the Dark Ruler of this important information."
The witch opened her mouth, the so-called Mother Sophia. Also the spokesperson of the will of the universe? How many spokesmen does the will of the universe have?
Before anyone else could ask, Casto continued, "Of course, as an intruder from the universe, the Dark Ruler sensed the existence of Gran Sophia, summoned the cosmic invader Naga, who had also appeared on Earth, and ordered him to invade Earth as soon as possible. ”
"Of course, as innocent, pitiful, human beings who survive in the cracks, we can only continue to develop technology to resist the invasion from the universe, and human experiments on the earth will inevitably bring a lot of light and affect the rest of the Dark Dominator, which I hope the servants of the Dark Dominator can understand,
In the same way, as a civilization born and raised on the earth, in the face of the powerful dark rulers sleeping on the earth, we must find a new way out for the civilization, in this case, it is inevitable to develop various high-speed spaceships to leave the earth, and in the same way, such a reality, I think that the mechanical island and Sophia lifeforms who are the will of the universe can also understand. ”
"Of course, if the servants of the Dark Dominator really don't allow us to carry out experiments that might affect their masters, then we may have to choose to take refuge in Sophia's lifeform."
"Similarly, if Sophia's lifeform doesn't allow us to develop a hyper-velocity spaceship, then we may have to hand over Earth to the Dark Rulers for survival."
"I know that the Dark Dominators don't want to see a group of glowing people come to Earth, and I know that Sophia doesn't want to see Earth taken away by the Dark Dominators, but there's nothing we can do. After all, humans are just ordinary carbon-based creatures. ”
Everyone looked at Casto with their mouths open, and if it weren't for the smile in Casto's eyes, everyone would have been almost moved by his words.
"Hmph, ridiculous acting." Keigo Masaki was the first to speak out to break the quiet atmosphere, and then, just when everyone didn't come to their senses, he spoke, "The matter on Sophia and Asuka Kazuma's side belongs to me, and I want all the materials for the mechanical island." ”
Sawai: ?!
Namwon;?!?
Yoshioka: !!!!!
The three old foxes, who were still showing fatigue because the meeting had been a little long, stood up instantly, "No! This matter is led by our TPC! This time, we want more than 50% of the mechanical island and the Naga spaceship! ”
"Humph! As the only official institution on Earth, after the unity of all mankind, all the benefits were taken away by you, and I think you have wasted this extraterrestrial consumables. Keigo Masaki squinted his eyes, and his tone was very stiff.
"Five-five, at least five-five, of course, we can jointly develop the specifics." Sawai knocked on the table and narrowed his eyes, but unlike Keigo Masaki, although his voice was not aggressive, it had a hint of unquestionable flavor, "In this matter, you can participate in the whole process, but you must be attached to TPC." ”
Keigo Masaki and Sawai looked at each other like this, while Castor on the side looked at the witch, "Don't you have anything you want?" Whether it's the Naga or the Mechanical Island, if you can get a little bit from them, it will be more than you have gained in the past 30 million years on Earth. ”
The witch thought for a moment and then said, "If you can, get a Naga to show me at that time, I want to study how many believers there are in the god of the universe, by the way, can the Kiri Elrod people use the body of the Naga to survive in the universe." ”
Casto:
Okay, okay, I underestimated you, and I silently planned to take the big head, right?
"By the way, does that Sophia lifeform really claim to be the will of the universe? Are they really with the Machine Island? The witch looked at Casto with some confusion, knowing that they Kiri Elrod had existed for thirty million years, but she felt that there were many things she had never heard of.
"Also, I can understand that the Dark Ruler will be used by us because of the Earth, but why are you so sure that the Sophian Lifeform cares so much about the Earth?"
"Pretty much." Casto nodded, "I'm not sure if it's together, but the mechanical island and the Sophia lifeform. Indeed, they all claim to be the will of the universe. ”
In fact, Castor is not mistaken, one of the inspirations for the design of Sophia's lifeform during the Dinah period was the mechanical island of Tigari.
"As for whether Sophia's lifeforms care about Earth," Casto shook his head at the witch, "you can take my guess."
Of course, Sophia's lifeform cares about the earth, and it is likely that she cares more about the earth than the Dark Dominator, because another design inspiration for Sophia's lifeform also comes from Tiga's, but it is different from the concrete and actual mechanical island, and this inspiration is somewhat abstract.
The origin of the design of Sophia's lifeform is a super-ancient civilization - to be precise, when Hasegawa designed Sophia at that time, he thought of the posture that the super-ancient civilization evolved after leaving the earth, (The backstab in the Tiga theatrical version was written by Hasegawa, this guy likes to write dark things.) )
As the mother body, Gran Fia, also known as the black hole Sophia, is the ultimate posture that ultra-ancient human civilization can become, because it has experienced the fear of the dark dominant,
Some of the survivors of ultra-ancient civilizations have developed their survival instincts to the extreme, and they no longer choose to be outward, but try to maintain life inward, and the result of this choice,
Sophia's life form has been created, as a single life form, but it oversees the posture of all life systems.
If the biggest theme of human beings is survival, then Sophia's lifeform is the product of completely developing the theme of survival to the extreme.
The reason why Casto dared to carry out these plans so confidently was because the people who made these ultra-ancient civilizations make this choice were actually the Rulers of Darkness 30 million years ago.
The so-called natural enemies did not start from this era, long before that, Sophia and the Ruler of Darkness met.
