25. Dead Line (Forty-Nine)
- The war is over.
The conclusion was so calm, no feelings, no waves, no melancholy.
Is it because I don't have the so-called "feelings" that I can face this conclusion so calmly?
Yes and no.
Without feelings, it is true that there will be no special reaction to the beginning, change, and end of things, after all, everything is the same, whether it is good or bad, it is only a part of equal treatment, and oneself and others are equal, and there is no need or reason to distinguish and treat them specially.
Observe how it develops, intervene and manipulate at the right time to make it end in the desired shape - as long as that is sufficient.
But the war ...... It's a little different.
That is the only reason and meaning of existence, and that is all.
Right...... That's the world.
The so-called phrase "the end of the war" is nothing more than people's temporary prayers and jokes, an empty and illusory expression of the state.
"Peace" is nothing more than an intermission before the next war, the time bought to prepare for the next war. In the long history, the span of peace is far less than that of war, and the longest peace has not exceeded 100 years.
War is the main theme of the world and the eternal proposition.
The next war, the next war, the never-ending war.
War will always exist, and as part of it, everything that was born for war, killing, and death will also exist.
So, there is simply no reason to be sad and happy.
"War is like a city that never sleeps that rejects the dawn, like a celebration that no one wants to end, no matter how many people die, how many good things are destroyed, how many irreplaceable things are plundered, the war will not end. Even if it seems to be over, it just continues in a different form. This never-ending waltz still has to be danced. ”
"You're still ...... It's really desireless......"
Blood-soaked conversations flowed along the tactical data chain, and an old man with a dead face appeared in a corner of the wide-area processing interface that staggered like an insect compound eye.
Gregory IV. The man who was once at the top of the human camp was a careerist who was in power for a while, even coveting theocracy. Now he is just a dying man spitting blood blisters, waiting for death to visit.
Even if all the famous doctors in the world were pulled to him, no one could snatch this man who had been cut in two in his waist and abdomen, and his liver and lung lobes broken in many places, from the hands of death. Having said that, it's a miracle that he can still insist on speaking in a mocking tone.
No, it's not, it's a miracle.
"The miracle of Saint Peter (Peter) still works in such a field? Is it not enough to kill only five times? What a troublesome miracle. ”
Speaking sympathetic words, the human-faced spider with the face of a young woman crawled close to the old man who was regenerating his body, and the high-frequency chain sword connected by countless gears pierced the temple accurately.
"It's just that with this kind of troublesome stuff, my workload has to increase. ”
As he spoke, the high-frequency chain sword sliced off the skull, stirring the brain repeatedly, and then penetrating the heart, cutting open the ribs, and digging the beating heart out of the chest.
Two high-frequency chained swords wrapped around the beating heart, tightening with force, blood and spasmodic shards splattering in all directions.
It stands to reason that this has been done, and no matter how tenacious the vitality of human beings is, they should die and can't die anymore. Like the pieces of flesh around them that were being disintegrated by the Human-Faced Spider Group, they had been fighting hard a few minutes ago, but now they had all been mutilated and reduced to lifeless masses.
And yet—
"If you don't have feelings and don't know what 'attachment' is, you won't understand. ”
The old man, who was not even a wreckage, curled the corners of his mouth and said in the tone of an old friend:
"You ...... In the life of a monster, there is only one goal of 'defeating humans'. War is neither joy nor sorrow for you, but only ...... It's just a task that has to be done. ”
Saint peter. The first of the thirteen disciples of the Savior. Even if you are not a believer, you have heard about him to some extent. Among the many miraculous anecdotes, the most famous is probably the rooster who denied the savior three times before, and was crucified upside down after 67 years after the savior's death and abandoning the sheep entrusted by the savior.
In other words, its miracle manifests itself in the form of the ability to regenerate fouls that "will never die until the agreed time".
St. Peter's pact with the Savior was when Peter forsaken the Savior's flock, and the pontificate was mostly "when mankind reached God's domination of the world."
"It's stubborn, it's like some kind of curse. ”
With a flick of the kidneys, the high-frequency chain sword slashed into pieces organs that were clearly showing signs of decay.
"Even if you die until the end of the world, you will not wait for this day. ”
This is not to overturn any hypothetical inferences, but to subvert the existing and established jurisprudence and laws, just as to suddenly negate classical physics and quantum physics, replace the former with a completely new doctrine and theory, and negate everything that was previously regarded as common sense and truth.
In other words, this is the destruction of the old world and the creation of the new world.
The problem is that to make 1+1=3, to make gravity invert - even if heaven and earth are reversed, it is even more absurd to say that flesh and blood humans can defeat gods and god messengers or something.
"So...... You really don't know what 'attachment' is......"
The old man, whose head had been regenerated, scoffed.
"Because you can do anything, you don't crave anything, you don't have questions, you don't want to change anything from the bottom of your heart. As long as that's it, no desire, no desire, just standing still!"
That kind of thing is unimaginable for human beings.
Human beings are weak, their abilities are limited, they are incomplete, and what they can accomplish is limited after all.
Yet it is precisely because of this that human beings crave power and generate motivation from endless desires.
"We're not domestic animals, we're going to be in captivity and waiting to be taken to the slaughterhouse one day. Whether he's a god or something, one day we'll pull him down from the shrine and sit on that seat!
The wound healed at a visible rate, and the severed bones and blood vessels began to regenerate.
His face was as ruddy and blood-colored as a wolf, and the pain and horror that seemed to have been cut into thousands of pieces disappeared without a trace.
"It does look like that...... It's weird. ”
The void twisted, and the voice of a young man echoed through the hollows of the earth.
"Kill as many times as you resurrect. As long as it exists, it will surely usher in the day of destruction. What is born out of nothingness will inevitably return to nothingness eventually. This is true for the world and for individuals. ”
The sound of emptiness accompanied the footsteps of emptiness, and little by little, approached the pope who had been regenerated in the upper body, and the long black knife that shimmered with blood-colored light looked particularly ominous in the darkness.
"That's just a theory, based on metaphysical insights. Even if you can split the stars in the sky, you can't cut off people's hearts. ”
"Older people seem to be obsessed with idealism and mysticism. Voluntarism, a metaphysical subjective opinion, cannot change its essence at any time and in any form -- the erroneous idea that the relationship between matter and consciousness is fundamentally reversed without considering the objective reality and that one's own will can determine everything, is destined to run into blood in the face of the cruel material reality. ”
A young man in a trench coat with a long black hem emerged from the dark shadows, and said in the same cold voice as the beauty of the enchantress:
"Just now, the last trump card you tried so hard to keep has fallen. ...... No, your hopes, the centuries-old aspirations of the Church, have been shattered. ”
"So what?! Even if the Church perishes, I can still exist! As long as I can hold on to the end, victory will still belong to old age, and immortal glory will still belong to the Holy Church!!"
"I told you, that's impossible. ”
Expressionlessly, a gust of "wind" swept through the space.
It was not simply the movement of air, but at the moment when the "wind" penetrated his body, the old man seemed to hear "the sound of something breaking".
Before the tremors and fear could spread, the regenerating flesh stopped growing, and the wound began to disappear.
As the literal meaning suggests, there is nothing, nothing.
The form that made up the man of Gregory IV was gradually disappearing. It starts with a wound, like a mirage that disappears in the sun.
"This ...... It's this!!"
"Since there is no way to physically kill you, it is better to deny your existence from the fundamental point of being. ”
"This kind of thing ......"
"High-frequency and low-frequency vibrations are nothing more than incidental functions, and the original purpose of the 'divine will' was to kill the strings, the basis of existence. ”
The original or original purpose of the Divine Consciousness Sword was not to be used for physical attacks, but the real ability, "changing the curvature of matter", was essentially to cut the "strings" of things.
According to string theory, the existence of every thing, the point at which every thing exists in every second, can be seen as an infinitely thin string on the time axis.
This string, which is thinner than all the particles of the fundamental force, can be open or closed.
It arises from a singularity and extends in an unknown direction. That's what we call the future.
The elementary chord and the ring sweep out of the two-dimensional counterpart of the world line, which is called the space-time path of the world membrane, so that the way the world membrane interacts is thought to determine the elementary particles.
From this, we can see that our world is a torrent of countless strings composed of countless things.
And the ability of the Divine Will Sword is to erase the existence of this string from the singularity, so that a thing never exists, and it is fundamentally obliterated.
EVEN IF IT IS A MIRACLE THAT CLAIMS TO BE IMMORTAL AND IMMORTAL, AS LONG AS HUMAN BEINGS EXIST, AS LONG AS IT DOES EXIST, AND FOLLOWS THE CYCLE OF CAUSE AND EFFECT, IT WILL NEVER ESCAPE THE SANCTION OF THIS PROVIDENCE.
Looking at the old strategist who was wailing and screaming, and tasting the taste of defeat with his whole body, Li Lin said expressionlessly:
"Let me tell you one last thing. The so-called hope is actually the same as despair. Even if you yearn for it, you can't realize it. After all, it's just two sides of a coin with different names. ”
With the empty words, the old man vanished along with his screams, leaving behind a silence deeper than the night.
