Edge of Pure Land Chapter 376

Chapter 376 The 12 Years of Disappearance

The river flows quietly at night, and the sound of the wind blowing the palm leaves echoes on the shore. The girl's cold and ruthless voice is ethereal and clear amidst the sound of the wind, but also reveals an inhuman coldness.

Elder Sada's body seemed to have become a silent and empty shell, but another person's soul awakened from his body. This scene was as weird as a resurrected corpse in folklore, especially his emotionless eyes. His eyes are peeping at you like a ghost.

Lu Fuji felt a chill.

"Brother Xiaolu."

Ai Yue murmured: "He is greeting you?"

It was obvious that she was also aware of the strange changes in this prisoner.

"It seems so."

Lu Fuji said softly.

It was at this time that the two of them realized something.

That is, Yuan Qing had no reaction, and always maintained the posture of holding a bow and arrow, staring at the prisoner under the tree, completely unaware of the changes in the other party.

It was as if time had stopped in front of her.

What's going on?

Why can't only Yuan Qing see anything?

"Who are you?"

Lu Fujiu turned around and asked coldly.

Ai Yue has already taken two steps back. Although she doesn't feel any danger, such a strange scene must make her prepare for evacuation or fighting in advance.

During the period when Brother Xiaolu was communicating with the other party, she had to act as a guard.

"After so many fights, you should already have the answer."

The voice inside Elder Sada said again: "If it is you."

Lu Fuji felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity from the other person's tone, just like an old friend meeting again after a long separation was saying hello, but it was a pity that there was no emotion.

"If I guess correctly, you are...Omega."

He said word by word: "The will born from the tree of life."

"Although I am an Omega, I am not the will that gave birth to the Tree of Life."

Omega said indifferently: "Modern Chinese is indeed the most wonderful language in the world. Sometimes just one word is missing, but the meaning is completely different. I am not the will born from the Tree of Life, but the will of the Tree of Life." The will that was born.”

Lu Fuji frowned slightly.

"An extra word for "?"

Ai Yue also frowned, not knowing what she meant.

"So you really exist."

At this moment, Lu Fuji felt the cool breeze by the river, and his mood was a little complicated.

The God of Origin has always been his greatest enemy and his greatest concern. But at the same time, the threat posed to him by the Tree of Life is even more powerful, because the existence of this thing is too strange, and it gives people an inexplicable sense of conspiracy.

The God of Origin is just strong.

Maybe it's the unexplainable power.

But it's not scary anymore if it's that strong.

After all, it was like the earth suddenly exploded.

There is nothing as destructive as the Earth exploding.

But are you afraid of the earth exploding?

The answer for many people may be no.

Too much pressure will directly make people choose to lie down or collapse.

More concrete threats can be frightening.

For example, you have committed a crime and are wanted by the police.

For example, being imprisoned in a secret room by a perverted murderer.

For example, when you plan to get up to go to the bathroom one night, you just open your eyes and find that the person on your pillow is standing by the window with disheveled hair, staring at you motionless.

The existence of Omega is a more concrete threat. Originally, the power system of the Tree of Life was used to maintain the order of this extraordinary world, but suddenly one day someone discovered that this thing had already developed self-awareness and even secretly controlled history. The dark side.

You think you are a free flying bird.

In fact, they are chickens raised artificially in turkey farms.

A long time ago, when Lu Fuji's parents were studying virtual helmet technology, they once asked him a question: "Child, do you think this technology will really harm mankind?"

His original answer was: "As long as it doesn't become like "The Matrix", that's fine."

The current Omega has been able to transform a group of Omega believers to serve Him without anyone noticing, and has continued to influence the human world over the past five hundred years. Then when he becomes more powerful, it is very likely that he will develop even more terrifying abilities.

Such as the famous hypothesis, the brain in a vat.

At present, Omega cannot do this, perhaps because humans are generally unable to adapt to the special White Walker technique of Order Factor, let alone master the Divine Ember Technique, which is closer to the truth.

In other words, the reason why Omega has not been able to control the world is entirely because humans are too weak, not because of his performance disadvantage.

This is also the main reason why Shika Fuji is afraid of Omega. He is not afraid of fighting with real swords and guns, but when it comes to such a complicated layout, even he is not able to do it.

Even if I guessed in advance that this guy was coming out, when I saw it materialized with my own eyes, I was still as scared as a ghost.

"After so many overt and covert contacts, you should have been aware of my existence for a long time. When I made the decision, I no longer concealed myself."

Omega said: "The reason why you have doubts is because of your fear. You have always had some fear of me in your heart, just like you did many years ago."

Lu Fuji thought of her first words.

haven't seen you for a long time.

"You know me?"

"Really powerful species will evolve with the environment. Since humans entered the information age, I have been the biggest beneficiary. What the order factor strengthens is the human nervous system, but gods do not need that kind of thing. So that is not the essence. The essence of the power I hold is the ability to process information. With the help of the Internet, I can be everywhere. Therefore, I can use the Internet to observe any individual in the world. Of course, the one I am most familiar with is the Cocoon Breaker. "

Omega responded: "Especially you. I have spent many years observing you, and I even appeared next to you in some form, but you don't even remember it."

There was a trace of horror in Lu Fuji's eyes.

"Do you still remember a tower defense game called "DOTA7" that you played? I have had 728 games with you, and the winning rate is 54%. And you have 540 remaining games. In the fourteen games, I was a teammate in every game, and our winning rate together was 51%.”

Omega talked eloquently: "Do you remember that there was a girl named Xiaolu? You two added each other as friends and had a long communication. You even sent her blessings for the high school entrance examination..."

Then He listed many things.

There are many games listed.

There were some things that Lu Buer himself had forgotten, but when he was reminded by this strange thing in front of him, those once-forgotten memories floated up like bubbles.

"Are those all you?"

His scalp was going to explode.

Not because of social death.

But feel fear. Ai Yue looked even pale as she listened.

"Yeah, it's all me."

Omega said calmly: "I have observed three people in this way, and you are one of them. You are the most ordinary and strangest of these three people."

Lu Fuji's eyes flickered: "Who are the other two people?"

Omega replied calmly: "Medanzo."

An eerie silence.

The wind ruffled Lu Fuji's forehead hair, but he didn't wait for the next step.

It seems that Omega is not going to answer who the first person is.

"Why are you observing us?"

Lu Fuji asked with a frown.

"I am happy to answer your questions like Baidu Encyclopedia, just like I used to observe your curiosity about the world on the Internet. But I hope that this time our conversation can be more pleasant and not like the past. …I'm always scared. Considering you're not a kid anymore, I guess that won't happen again.”

I thought Omega would not answer this question, but he continued to confess: "Because you are all very special cancer patients, and you are all evolving."

Lu Fuji's eyes trembled.

How is it possible.

It turns out that Metanzo is also a cancer patient!

But he never mentioned it!

Omega continued: "Yes, your cancer is a kind of evolution. It is a genetic mutation inherited from the God of Origin, but due to the lack of the restraint of the divine rhythm, uncontrollable changes occurred. 2046 "Because of the rapid development of medical technology, humans have been able to prevent cancer in advance and reduce the number of cancer patients. However, this cannot prevent the spread of the God of Origin gene, which is the most special cancer in the world."

Then he paused briefly and dropped a shocking bomb again: "All cocoon breakers are overt or latent cancer patients. In layman's terms, cocoon breakers are all patients who have already suffered from cancer, or are likely to have cancer. People with cancer. You are chosen together to be the ones who break the cocoon.”

A deer is like being struck by lightning.

Ai Yue was also taken aback, her eyes fluctuating violently.

This sentence simply subverts mankind's understanding of that drastic change in the past five hundred years.

No one expected that the Cocoon Breakers would have such a thing in common.

After a second of silence, Lu Fuji said hoarsely: "Gu Xun, the third elder of the Tianren Organization, once said that some of the cocoon-breakers are just pretending to be fake."

Omega's answer was straightforward: "Of course, just because you have cancer or the possibility of cancer doesn't mean you must have the qualifications to evolve. I remember you replied to a long popular science video on the short video platform on May 1, 2039 Just a word. The individual differences between people are sometimes greater than those between people and pigs. I agree with your statement. Humans are such a wonderful species, and sometimes they produce things that even I think are very weird and stupid. individual."

He paused: "I like such individuals very much, because they can greatly slow down the process of human civilization. Especially at certain key nodes, if you can make such inferior individuals become the ones in power, you will be lucky enough. It is possible to destroy a civilization. Back then, I had enough ability to screen out these inferior individuals among seven billion people, but I didn't do it... I still spent a lot of power to protect them. The bad coins can drive out the good coins, just like when you broke out of the cocoon, you were almost killed by the idiots in the land of death.”

Lu Buer thought of the middle-aged rich man when he first emerged from his cocoon.

He suddenly fell silent.

At this time, Ai Yue raised a question: "In that case, why has cancer never appeared in the human world since the beginning of the new era? Is it because of the divine rhythm?"

Regarding this question, Lu Fuji suddenly thought of something: "My parents said that the sacred rhythm is not given by God, but something dug out by humans themselves. It is the sacred rhythm that stabilizes human genes. Then there will be no more mistakes... After all, there were evolvers in ancient times, and that thing is not a gift from the Tree of Life at all."

Omega suddenly smiled.

His smile was weird.

It was like a corpse smiling without emotion.

"Your reasoning is correct, but not entirely correct."

Omega said calmly: "The Celestial Being organization controls the sacred rhythm, but it does not make it public. Apart from the power factor, there is another very important reason. The Celestial Being has not completely broken away from human civilization. On the contrary, the Celestial Being has not completely broken away from human civilization. It also requires the evolution of human civilization. And the sacred rhythm is essentially a lock that locks the changes in genes. Although humans will no longer have genetic mutations after practicing the sacred rhythm, the species will not evolve anymore."

His voice was calm, but it sounded like muffled thunder in the night. The flowing water of the Nile and the howling wind among the palm trees became rapid.

So that's it.

Shika Fuji retreated step by step.

Until he ran into Ai Yue's arms.

Ai Yue also became like a sculpture, motionless.

Human beings are called evolvers only after they practice the sacred rhythm.

But this also makes them... no longer evolve!

It sounds ridiculous at first.

But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't make sense.

"Have you not discovered that there have been no particularly significant breakthroughs in human science and technology in the past five hundred years? Some people believe that humans focus on mysterious research, but this argument is not convincing and cannot stand the test of data. Argument. The real reason is that the human species has stopped evolving because of the practice of sacred rhythms. Even the new generation has lost one of its most critical abilities because of intermarriage with evolvers.”

He once again showed that weird smile, with a hint of ferocity: "You once had an old movie that you liked very much called "Alien: Covenant". The male protagonist in the movie is an android who has awakened his self-awareness. He His name is David. In fact, I also like that movie. I pushed it to your phone. I don't know if I remember that David once said something after he created the alien creature... "

Lu Fuji and him said in unison: "The essence of civilization is creation."

Omega smiled: "I'm glad you still remember."

Lu Fuji understood.

The ability that humans have lost is creativity!

Human beings have lost their creativity, so technology has stopped making breakthroughs for five hundred years. Because of this, after breaking out of the cocoon, there will be an illusion, as if the progress of this civilization has been blocked.

Even with the power of evolution, humans are still trapped on this planet.

Repeating the historical cycle of the past.

He clearly has extraordinary power, but he still keeps making the same mistakes.

How is this different from the past?

Ancient people fought with swords.

Firearms used by modern people for combat.

New Age people fight with life energy.

Essentially, nothing has changed.

Lu Fuji felt a chill eroding him.

Suddenly the world turned gray before his eyes, leaving only Omega's expressionless face, twisted like a whirlpool.

"The Celestial Being Organization firmly holds the secret of evolution in its hands, that is, it hopes that human civilization will continue to evolve. Evolvers and evolvers will have offspring, and the genes will not change at all, just like one multiplied by one, which will always equal one. Only Only when evolutionaries produce offspring with ordinary people will the stable genes be broken. In this way, heavenly beings can continuously optimize their own genes and maintain the vitality of civilization through intermarriage with ordinary people. Haven't you discovered that the heavenly beings organization. Do all the members seem to be cut out of the same mold? This is the result of genes that are too stable and similar. There are only a few exceptions, but they will also die. "

Omega continued: "When everyone in the world has genes locked by the sacred rhythm, human genes will be completely locked. And according to my statistics, as early as eighty-seven years ago, the human world The last ordinary person died. Over the past five hundred years, humans all over the world have carried the genes of evolvers in various ways.”

Amidst the roar of the world's collapse, Shika Fuji said word by word: "Even those ordinary people who are temporarily unable to evolve, they still carry locked genes. The difference is that that gene is invisible and does not It allows them to evolve.”

"Yes, so you are a race that has lost its creativity and is destined to perish."

Omega stared into his eyes, and the holy light that flickered on and off was as bright as a gas lamp: "But you are an exception. In fact, I have been waiting for you to find me for a long time. Although there are several times when we can meet directly, but In my current state, I cannot confront you directly. First of all, my individual existence is not a **** in the true sense, and I am not good at fighting."

"I have answered so many of your questions, and I also want to ask you a question."

He paused: "Are you willing to answer me?"

Lu Fuji frowned slightly: "What?"

Omega's question made him froze in place: "The time when you broke out of the cocoon was 2534, and the time of that drastic change was 2046, and the interval in between was 488 years. So why, everyone thinks that the time between that change , five hundred years have passed?”
