Chapter 775 Clearing
Chapter 775 Clearing
"what?!"
Lu Chihuan’s head was buzzing.
He blurted out these words uncontrollably, and now he looked up at Yuqian in disbelief, his beautiful almond-shaped eyes widened a little, as if he couldn't believe what he heard.
"impossible……"
His first reaction was disbelief.
Now I couldn't help but defend the world consciousness, "There is no reason for the world consciousness to destroy this world. If it wanted to destroy this world, it wouldn't have come to me in the first place and asked me to collect energy for it."
Yugyeom shook his head and smiled bitterly.
There was a hint of helplessness and pity in the look he gave Lu Chihuan, as if he saw the shadow of his former self in him.
after all.
When he witnessed with his own eyes the world consciousness destroying the world they were in, he also showed such a lost expression, but he was more devastated and desperate at that time.
"What's impossible?"
"Do you still remember what I said to you in Stuhai?"
He continued in a hoarse voice, "The world consciousness and its enemies are essentially just a ball of energy. There is actually no distinction between goodness and justice between them. This is just the definition we humans give them."
"The world consciousness found you first, and you preconceived that..."
“It’s righteous.”
"But in reality, the world consciousness is just beautifying its own intentions and putting on the cloak of saving the world. In fact, its real purpose is to defeat its enemies."
This scam.
Only he and Lu Chihuan believed it, and it also paid the so-called price.
But fortunately——
He still had time to save Lu Chihuan.
Lu Chihuan blinked blankly.
What Yuqian said now was beyond his understanding, so much so that he was like an old and rusty machine, digesting what he had just heard with some difficulty.
The face was pale and silent, and looked almost bloodless.
He bit his knuckles.
He felt that he was in a fog. He couldn't see the direction clearly and didn't know what to say for a moment. So after hesitating for a moment, he stammered:
"You, keep talking."
Yugyeom coughed a few times.
He was not in a hurry to ask Lu Chihuan to make any promise or answer him. He just expressed his speculation and then explained it to Lu Chihuan in more detail.
"Perhaps the world consciousness and its enemies were actually one entity a long time ago, just like the yin and yang fish mentioned earlier. You are in me and I am in you, restraining and balancing each other."
"Maintaining the stability of the entire world."
"But everything that happens in this world is closely related to them. Negative things such as wars and disasters can bring strength to the enemies of world consciousness, while stability and progress among different races nourish world consciousness."
"In the beginning, these two energy bodies maintained a balance and lived in harmony with each other."
"However, with the emergence of the Zerg, conflicts between races, and other reasons, the strength of the enemy of the world consciousness has grown rapidly. After it became stronger than the world consciousness, it no longer intended to maintain the previous state of unity, and even tried to plunder the power of the world consciousness."
“It wants to dominate.”
Lu Chihuan tried to figure out the relationship between them, and his mind began to work flexibly. "So the world consciousness and its enemy are in a state of life and death. In order to weaken the opponent..."
“It created me.”
"It also tried to disrupt the fate of everyone and extinguish the flames of war that were about to be ignited by Zhou Zhi and other sons of destiny. Unfortunately, its enemies noticed its actions."
"So they deliberately brought an outsider from another world and had him occupy my body. Without me, the war started again in this world."
"As a last resort."
"The world consciousness had no choice but to let me collect energy for it, trying to use this method to suppress its opponent. Now it has been half successful."
"Right?"
Youqian looked at Lu Chihuan with admiration, then nodded slightly.
"Yes."
"Just like you were wary of the world consciousness at the beginning, the world consciousness also has its own little thoughts. It has absorbed a lot of power now, and it will probably have the upper hand in a fight with its enemies."
When it comes to this.
His eyes dimmed a little, as if he was recalling painful past events that he could not bear to think back on, and his heart twitched uncontrollably.
"At the beginning."
"I thought that after collecting all the energy and handing it over to the world consciousness, our world would be saved, so I watched helplessly as the world consciousness devoured those powers and grew stronger little by little."
"He even defeated his enemies and plundered their energy in return."
"However--"
"As long as wars and disasters continue to occur in this world, the enemies of world consciousness will revive and reappear in this world, so in order to prevent future troubles."
“World consciousness is determined to create a stable, beautiful world without the disasters of war.”
Lu Chihuan frowned when he heard this.
Then he raised his own question, "But war should be something that cannot be eradicated. After all, intelligent creatures have seven emotions and six desires. They are selfish and have their own plans."
"Besides, friction between people is inevitable. Who knows when these small frictions will turn into endless wars."
"This is not something that the world consciousness can control at all."
Yugyeom twitched the corner of his lips.
The corners of his lips raised with a hint of sarcasm, and his dark and dead eyes showed a bit of coldness. "If you can think of this, then the world consciousness can think of it too."
"so."
"It hit its head and came up with what it thought was a perfect solution."
Lu Chihuan’s heart tightened.
For some reason, he had a bad feeling in his heart. He swallowed unconsciously, and then asked in a low voice, "What method did it come up with?"
Yugyeom sneered.
A few words came out of those pale and cracked lips.
"Make intelligent life disappear."
"It makes the world return to a time before intelligent life was born. At that time, there is no intrigue and deception. It thinks that is the beautiful world it imagines."
Lu Chihuan had a bit of difficulty breathing.
He was so shocked by the idea of world consciousness that he couldn't recover for a long time.
My mind went blank for a moment.
After a moment, he clenched his fingers tightly and said in disbelief and excitement, "The world consciousness must be crazy. What it does is no different from its enemy. They are all aiming to destroy humanity!"
Yugyeom's eyes felt a little warm.
He recalled the scene of that day again.
As he watched the world consciousness devour the enemy's power, he was delighted to think that he had completed the mission of saving the world. So he curled the corners of his lips, and was about to hug his relatives, friends and loved ones who came to greet him, and then enjoy the belated leisure time with them.
however.
Before he could even utter a word, he saw fear in their eyes.
At that time, Yuqian turned around and looked in the direction of their gaze, but saw the most horrifying scene in his life.
A blinding white light appeared in the sky.
The white light began to spread across the entire planet at an extremely fast speed, and all humans or intelligent life forms swept by the white light would fall to the ground in just a few minutes, with no signs of life at all.
It was as if an invisible sickle had easily taken away their lives.
So that...
They couldn't even cry out for help.
Lu Chihuan did not continue watching because Zhou Zhi, who had reacted quickly, had already carried him on his shoulders. Everyone hurriedly boarded the spaceship, and as the white light spread in front of them, they had already escaped from the small planet.
Lu Chihuan was sitting in the spaceship.
We watched helplessly as the small planet was engulfed by white light. Later, the detection robot sent us a message that although there were still signs of life activities on the small planet, all intelligent life had disappeared.
That is to say-
Hundreds of millions of intelligent lives were wiped out, leaving no corpses behind.
"What did I do?"
Yugyeom slumped to the ground.
The white light before my eyes must be the power of world consciousness, and no one else can do it except it.
He thought he was saving the world, but in fact he opened Pandora's box and released a terrible devil.
And this devil.
Trying to eliminate their intelligent life forms from this world like clearing away garbage.
All of a sudden.
Yuqian couldn't bear the blow and lost consciousness in extreme anger and pain. He was in a coma for several days before waking up.
When he woke up, no one blamed him.
Everyone comforted him... and told him that it was not his fault, and that it was the world consciousness that was too despicable and took advantage of him that led to the current situation. In front of the world consciousness, he couldn't do anything even if he wanted to disobey.
Yugyeom also wanted to convince himself in this way.
however.
When one planet after another was covered in white light by the world consciousness, and when intelligent life forms with a population of more than billions became a series of numbers on the death report before his eyes, a strong sense of self-blame and guilt destroyed Yuqian.
He considered himself a sinner.
So he tried every way to atone for his sins, such as trying to communicate with the world consciousness, or increasing investment and trying to let people in the research institute develop a protective shield that can counter the power of the world consciousness, but all failed without exception.
He is no longer of any use...
In the eyes of the world consciousness, there is almost no difference between them and ants.
The other party disdained to talk to him.
Because all his attempts ended in failure, Yu-gyeom's mental state was already shaky in the end. He couldn't forgive himself, nor could he face the other people who were still alive, so he could only lock himself in the room and not go out.
In the end, he even had difficulty falling asleep.
Whenever he closed his eyes.
You can see countless dead souls struggling to come to him, asking him with tears in their eyes why they believed what the world consciousness said and killed them, and why an accomplice and sinner like him is still alive and well.
every time.
Yuqian struggled to wake up from his dreams with tears streaming down his face. In just a few days, he lost more than ten pounds.
The bones on the body protrude.
It's a bit hard when I hold it in my arms.
At first he couldn't even eat much, but in the end his lover took a spoon and scooped out food one spoonful at a time to coax him into eating.
after that.
The white light produced by the world consciousness is still devouring the lives of intelligent life forms.
At first, some people were fleeing in all directions, but later on, most people had accepted their fate. They saw the reality clearly: this white light should cover the entire universe, and they had nowhere to escape.
However, some people somehow learned about the connection between Yuqian and the world consciousness, and all the anger and despair suppressed in their hearts burst out.
They think that if it weren’t for Yugyeom, the world wouldn’t be like this.
therefore.
These people broke into the palace where Youqian and his lover lived, trying to drag Youqian out and kill him in order to calm the anger of the world consciousness and stop it from destroying intelligent life forms.
A fierce battle broke out in the palace.
The magnificent corridor was filled with traces of burns from light blades and light cannons. The handicrafts on display were broken, and the oil paintings hanging on the walls were smeared with black ink.
The smell of blood and gunpowder intertwined with each other, making one's scalp tingle.
These people did not succeed.
Lu Chihuan's lover blocked everything.
He killed all the invaders of the palace expressionlessly, then calmly washed off all the blood on his body, and spent a quiet and warm night with Lu Chihuan in his arms.
I don’t know if it was intentional by the world consciousness, but the last planet the white light spread to was the main planet of the human empire.
When the dazzling white light gradually covered the city that Youqian was familiar with, Youqian actually felt a sense of relief and the dust had settled. This endless torture finally came to an end.
He washed his body.
After putting on her favorite clothes, she took the initiative to push open the tightly closed door of the room.
After having dinner with his relatives and friends who were still guarding the palace and hugging each other, he held his lover's hand tightly and waited quietly for the coming death.
He was indeed dead.
However, the heart scale worn around his neck merged into Yugyeom’s body.
He was revived again.
Because the last intelligent life form in the world died, the world consciousness withdrew the white light. Therefore, after Youqian was rescued by Xinlin, he was no longer bathed in the white light that could kill people, so he did not die immediately.
but.
The world consciousness naturally would not let him survive, and just as it was about to take action again, the entire world began to collapse.
Although Yugyeom's eyes were slightly red when he talked about these memories, his tone was calm and indifferent from beginning to end.
Until this moment.
Inevitably, a hint of pleasure and joy could be seen in his dead eyes.
"The world consciousness thought it had made an extremely correct decision, but it didn't know that this decision would also send it into the abyss!"
