Chapter 113: Ancient Secrets
"Maybe it's a record of the winners.
However, the study of ancient civilizations is more of a record of the traces of the remaining civilizations.
If the victor leaves more pieces of history in the process, then it does qualify as a representative of this era.
Tell me, what is the reason for the destruction of this place? ”
In order to better guide the core of the illusion to extract effective data, Bai Ning could only risk interrupting his interest and forcibly inserting some topics.
"Destruction?
You humans have a saying that flourishes and declines, and any aggregate organization will eventually usher in its own end.
As for why this place was destroyed, to be honest, I don't know too much. ”
However, to Bai Ning's surprise, the illusion core did not respond to the question of destruction, and he didn't know if it was a deliberate perfunctory.
"By our state of cognition, is this the Atlantean civilization founded?
After the final destruction of the Fourth Civilization, what are the commonalities between the direction of the entire subsequent civilization and the previous civilization form?
For example, the six ancient civilizations: the Two Rivers Valley, Egypt, India, Greece, China, and the Maya. ”
Bai Ning felt that the core of the illusion could not give a clear logical line, entirely because the questions he asked were too general, so he made the questions detailed.
"The six ancient civilizations you are talking about are just survivor forces after the Great Destruction.
At the end of the day, they are just fragments of the Fourth Civilization, a continuation of a civilization built on the ashes.
That's why I'll tell you before that the history you've recorded is nothing more than the remnants of some victors. ”
What the core of the illusion gives is still general, like a perfunctory assessment given by an inconsequential third party.
According to you, some commonalities between Eastern and Western civilizations may be a testimony to the glory of the Fourth Civilization.
For example, in the Western Bible, it was God who created man in His own image, and it was the serpent who tempted Adam and Eve to eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, so they were driven out of the Garden of Eden.
In oriental legends, Nuwa also created people according to her own appearance, and Nuwa is a creature with a human body and a snake body.
Are all the myths and legends of the origin of mankind in the East and the West originating from a certain myth and legend of the Fourth Civilization?
Or, the so-called origin of human beings is nothing but a genetic product of the Fourth Civilization, and the different manifestations of the snake element are a natural error in the process of transmission. ”
Bai Ning's question is very quintessential, and in his question, he even doubts about the essential difference between the race of the fourth civilization and the race of the fifth civilization.
In the general urban rumors, there are also aliens who say that human beings are just a genetic creature created by aliens on the earth.
In Bai Ning's discourse, it is also implying that the race of the fifth civilization is not a product of the genetic improvement of the race of the fourth civilization.
In the face of Bai Ning's secret inquiry, the core of the illusion only grinned evilly, like a contemptuous ridicule.
No matter how incomplete the core of the illusion is, its knowledge reserve relative to Bai Ning is crushing.
Perhaps, in the eyes of the core of the illusion, Bai Ning's speech at this time is just like the fantasy of an ignorant child, a self-righteous and childish ploy.
"Among your established urban rumors is a rumor about the genetic creature of Atlantis, which is Camela.
So, do you think there is reproductive isolation between this kind of genetic organisms based on human genes?
You humans have blacks, whites, yellows, and reds, and they belong to different coastal continental plates, do you think this is due to the difference in skin color due to geographical selection? ”
The core of the illusion is to answer questions instead of questions, and the connotation contained in it makes Bai Ning's scalp tingle, and this indirect answer seems to have verified Bai Ning's previous guess.
The main human beings of the Fifth Civilization are indeed only a continuation of the genetic products of the Fourth Civilization.
Therefore, in this ancient ruin, it is not only the study of the human soul, but also the research on the modification of human genes must also be in a very important position.
Since there is a soul temple here, is there also a gene temple?
There were many thoughts in his mind, and Bai Ning looked at the illusion core in front of him and felt that it was getting deeper and deeper, as if there was a sense of incomprehension.
"In the established rumors, the Fourth Civilization was destroyed by the Great Flood, and this so-called Great Flood is not a flood in the real sense?
The so-called flood beast is just a referential description, and the destruction of the fourth civilization is due to their dual transformation of human genes and souls.
Mankind's thirst for science and technology in this regard has always had only two purposes, one is to serve human slaves, and the other is to use it for the purpose of war.
When the war slaves who succumbed to the Fourth Civilization began to revolt, the entire thriving Fourth Civilization was destroyed. ”
"As I said, I don't have any memories of destruction."
Bai Ning's inquiry remained unanswered, perhaps there was a taboo for information about destruction, and perhaps all the secrets of this ancient ruin were in the cause of destruction.
If you know the secrets here, you will also gain the power to destroy the world.
"You led the destruction of the Outpost Research Base in the beginning, will you still lead the destruction here after I leave?"
This ancient relic is a shortcut to explore the Fourth Civilization and a shortcut to unlock the ancient civilization of mankind, and Bai Ning does not want it to be a ruin again.
"Destroy here, beyond my power.
Also, in my preconceived presence, the power to destroy this place is not in my hands. ”
The response of the Illusion Core was very vague, and it seemed to be faintly pointing at the management core outside.
But why did a core of management that had controlled this place for thousands of years suddenly destroy it after they came here?
Just as Bai Ning was thinking, Gogol suddenly changed again, and his violently struggling and twisted body began to curl up, and finally when he stood up again, he had an extremely hideous face.
"Bai Ning, it's deceiving you, everything is fake."
After saying a word, although his hideous face did not immediately ease up, it can be seen from its sudden stiffened state that Gogol only grabbed the time for a sentence.
Everything is fake.
So is the Gogol who calmly appeared earlier also fake?
Fake Gogol's previous statement that the core of the illusion cannot control the external mechanism of the central totem is also false?
The words spoken by the second Gogol were very general and hurried, which made the current scene suddenly become subtle, and also made the thoughts in Bai Ning's mind instantly chaotic.
However, thinking about it the other way, if the Illusion Core just wanted to play with him Bai Ning, there was no need to waste so much time.
The only possibility is that what the core of the illusion says is nine true and one false.
Although there is no desire for the existence of an AI-like AI in the Illusion Core, its existence itself should have a preset purpose, which is also the premise for the existence of the AI class to be created.
Expand this purpose a little, and it is likely to be destruction.
Right. It's destruction!
The fact that the Illusion Core avoided the question of destruction and destroyed it immediately after leaving the Outpost Research Base seems to indicate that the fundamental purpose of the Illusion Core's existence is destruction.
This kind of destruction is the result of the mutual attack of the two forces, and it is also the only purpose that humanity presets for the core of the illusion.
Judging from the current situation, the Management Core and the Illusion Core originally belonged to different faction systems, and the purpose of the existence of the Illusion Core may be to destroy this ancient ruin.
It doesn't matter if the ancient relic belongs to the attacker or the defender.
In this way, the management core guided Bai Ning and his party into the temple, and also had the intention of borrowing Bai Ning and others to deal with the illusion core.
With such a presupposition, many of the previous doubts seem to be explained.
"Is there anything else you'd like to ask?"
As if stabilizing his own inside, the Illusion Core continued to ask, as if he didn't care about what Gogol had said earlier.
Or maybe it's a temptation at the heart of the illusion.
"Soul, what the hell is it?"
It is like a kind of questioning about the previous topic, which is also the core purpose of Bai Ning's coming here, even if the words of the core of the illusion are tentative, there is no flaw in such follow-up questions.
"I don't know.
Everyone wants the answer to this question, but the path to truth has always been difficult, and perhaps this is not in itself something that human beings can explore. ”
The response of the core of the illusion is even more perfect, anyway, no one knows how far the existence in this ancient ruin has advanced to the study of the soul, it is not clear, it must be the most perfect.
In this way, Bai Ning's purpose for coming here has completely disappeared, and it seems logical to leave here.
"Why are you in such a hurry to let me go, just because you want to keep Gogol's soul?
Even if it's a deal, some basic sincerity should be given. ”
Bai Ning's topic suddenly turned to Gogol, as if Gogol's words just said were the root of what he used to threaten the core of the illusion.
Leaving the killing move in this hand seems to prove that Gogol's revelations just now did not affect him Bai Ning.
"Being able to get you out safely is already the final deal.
Besides, after telling you so many ancient secrets, isn't it worthless? ”
The face of the core of the illusion was unusually cold at this time, as if it was a sign that the negotiations were about to collapse.
"Good.
Tell me the way out of here, I'll leave now. ”
Bai Ning behaved like a gambler who couldn't take advantage of anything at this time, and all the compromises were just out of helplessness, helplessness due to the failure of the attack.
Almost at the next moment, Bai Ning's eyes flickered, and his body instantly fell backwards, and he was quickly supported again.
When he looked closely, the black wall in front of him was still there, and he had left the pure white space before.
It can be seen that the Illusion Core is lying when it says that it cannot control the external functions of the central totem.
