Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

[Life has the power to choose its path. 】

[Everything provided by human civilized society is not a necessary choice for human beings. 】

["Forward" itself is the only path for mankind. 】

The voice clearly appeared in the dark tomb, but Chen Yan felt as if it appeared in his own heart.

Along with the sound, there was a strong emotion representing "unwillingness". When Chen Yan stepped into the tomb, his synaesthesia sensed more from this "unwillingness"——

Yearning, hope, despair, madness...

The voices of past generations that were too strong and solidified were strengthened by the entire Sankraken Tomb, and poured into Chen Yan's mind completely uncontrollably——

“We can’t find a way forward, maybe our lives are wrong.

We, humans, and everything that industrial society has brought to us may not be necessities, nor do we have to rely on increasingly powerful productivity to turn survival into life.

It’s just that stronger and stronger productivity has allowed more people to survive. Industrial society has shaped people’s habits rather than their habits. After several generations, people’s worldview has been shaped into what it is today. It is difficult to escape from this understanding. To think of new paths.

Human beings are extremely adaptable. We have lived, adapted, and been pushed forward by industrial society. Until the day of the apocalypse, we have no means of resistance——

Therefore, I believe that [Apocalypse] destroyed only this industrial society, not humanity itself.

Humanity is headed for destruction because it is unable to turn around due to the huge life inertia created by industrial society. "

A voice appeared in an instant like ashes, illuminating the dark scene in the entire tomb.

Then it dies in an instant, blooming only in an instant.

“No one knows what is the right direction, we can only walk and see.

It's a pity that we didn't extend our vision further. When we found that we were lost, there was no turning back.

Death is always just a symbol——

[Apocalypse] has always been just a symbol——

It symbolizes that a civilization is about to reach a dead end and there is no need to continue.

I often think that the so-called supreme being, the supreme will known as the "Creation God", must have a clear purpose.

Moreover, His purpose is definitely not to destroy the world.

He wants this world to grow freely, allowing humans to develop freely without any help from Him, until they find the way to the true future.

In the past generations, although other civilizations different from industrial civilization have emerged, the impact of technological civilization on human beings has penetrated deep into the bone marrow. It seems that this is the genetic setting of human beings.

Human beings have been wrong for generations, so every generation has ushered in the [Apocalypse]——

Under the judgment of the [Creation God], generations of human beings have reached a dead end, and there is no need to continue to exist.

To this day, we still don’t know the criteria established by that god. "

More and more voices appeared in Chen Yan's ears, and more and more pictures appeared in front of Chen Yan.

He continued to move forward by the light of ashes produced by the fleeting images, passing through tombs one after another, hearing more voices, and seeing more images of the past——

These things are the crystallization of wisdom from past generations, reflections on the world by the sages who have existed in this world in the past, and are valuable experiences.

As he walked through the interior of Sankraken's tomb, the tomb was no longer the same as before——

In an instant, Chen Yan seemed to be on Makino, wandering the bell tower corridor, chatting with any scholar in any laboratory, and suddenly jumped from the hot air balloon into the thundering cumulonimbus clouds, and was hit by the giant leaping out of the storm. Kun swallowed it into his belly.

The next moment, his gaze shifted to the back of a huge crane. The blond-haired and blue-eyed William Master was wearing a Taoist robe, holding a fly whisk in his arms, wearing a crown, and looking in the direction of him with a serious face:

"I saw my past in Taixu Illusion, and I also saw you.

It turns out that cultivating immortals in industrial civilization is wrong. The golden immortals mass-produced on the assembly line are no match for the heavenly demons from outside the territory, because the power of the golden immortals and the heavenly demons have the same source, and they both come from the world itself.

The so-called industrial civilization of cultivating immortals is just an illusory branch of industrial civilization, because the world cannot actually afford the energy level of cultivators of immortals. Everything that has happened in the world of cultivating immortals in the past three hundred million trillion years is an illusion and belongs to you. A dream.

Now, it's time for you to wake up. "

William Mast pulled out the fly whisk from his arms and waved it at him.

Chen Yan fell from the clouds, fell into the sea of ​​stars, and hit the fishing net of a small steam turbine fishing boat.

The storm was raging, lightning was thundering, and a sailor grabbed him and pulled him back to the cabin.

The moment lightning illuminated the cabin, Chen Yan saw Klein's face.

"Listen to me, listen to me..."

Klein's voice was extremely low, as if he was avoiding something on the ship.

"Everything strange is not an illusion, but a real reality. It's just that the rules of energy operation are different and we can't understand it, so we think [how did the world become like this?"

We should not be afraid, because there is nothing to be afraid of in the first place. Since everything we face exists, there must be a way to deal with it.

We are at a loss now simply because we have not found a way.

No matter what, we must survive.

As long as you live, as long as you continue to persevere, there will always be a way, there will always be hope..."

A huge wave swamped the fishing boat, and the huge water pressure caused all the glass in the boat to shatter.

Chen Yan was swept out of the cabin by the current and saw Xanthium wearing a deep-sea diving suit.

At this time, Xanthium was still very young. When he saw Chen Yan, he swam to Chen Yan and gestured to him in sign language.

Chen Yan could actually understand——

'He is with you. '

Before the gesture could be completed, a shark rushed over and tore the cocklebur into pieces with a few shakes.

Blood blurred Chen Yan's vision.

When the vision became clear again, Chen Yan returned to the tomb chamber in the Sankraken Tomb.

There is no road ahead, and this seems to be the lowest level of the tomb.

There were still countless voices echoing in Chen Yan's ears, and countless pictures were still flashing before his eyes.

When he strengthened his will, the illusions of the past disappeared.

On the ground floor of the tomb of Sankraken, the dark water was illuminated by an old-fashioned computer standing alone at the bottom of the tomb.

When Chen Yan got closer, he saw that the programming language continued to jump on the computer screen, as if he was calculating something.

At the bottom of the screen, the time this computer has been running is displayed——

30万3千6百5十1年。

Three hundred thousand years ago was the time when early Homo sapiens - an animal that could be called a human - was born - the time in the real world.

In the spiritual world of [Eternal Death], 300,000 years ago was the era when the first human civilization appeared.

Chen Yan was able to tell from the Sankraken Tomb that the first generation of human civilization had followed a certain path until the society could no longer function and was then destroyed by [Apocalypse].

He found detailed information about the first generation from this computer, which was recorded by the computer and stored here.

He roughly understood that this computer might be a biological tissue with a "hard drive" function in [Eternal Death] in the real world, and its symbolic counterpart in [Eternal Death]'s spiritual world.

Xanthium has been here before. Perhaps it was because he saw this computer and the data recorded in the computer that he came up with the idea of ​​creating carbon-based life [Ultimate], that is, [Eternal Death].

This is not the way out left for mankind by the [Creation God]. The Great Tomb of Sankraken is obviously a creation of the human civilization that existed in this world in the past.

Their unwillingness... and courage, in turn, had a spiritual impact on [Eternal Death], allowing their generation to remain and become this lonely grave as a warning to future generations of mankind.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Yan found a large number of "presuppositions for the future path" from the computer. These presuppositions were based on thinking about the reasons for the destruction of civilization in each generation.

Each [presupposition of the future road] will have detailed thinking and construction steps, and a dedicated software will be used to deduce and correct these steps.

Unfortunately, until Chen Yan's generation, no correct presupposition has been fully deduced.

Now, the baton is passed to Chen Yan.

On the desktop of the computer, Chen Yan found a letter.

The letter is signed by himself - this is a letter left to him by him from another dimension.

"To you who may have the last hope:

When you read this letter, it means that you have integrated into this world and become a part of it.

——This is the activation condition I set for this letter.

The Great Tomb of Sankraken is an anchor point, not only linking to countless past generations, but also linking to all past generations in countless dimensions.

The reason why it is said to be "the past" is because those generations have been destroyed, and God has proved that the path chosen by those generations was wrong.

So, were the paths chosen by those generations really wrong?

I can't see it.

The so-called [Creation God] only relies on his own will to define everything.

He seems to be irrational, even... even naive and paranoid!

Because in the past generations, some very brilliant civilizations were born, and those civilizations were countless times more optimized than human civilization in the real world.

But those generations were still destroyed by Him using [Apocalypse].

What exactly is He going to do?

How absurd is it that the future of civilization for countless generations is all held in the hands of a paranoid will!

But as far as this world is concerned, He is supreme. His existence transcends the dimension we are in, so He is above all living beings.

I was puzzled and did a lot of research, but none of it got to the bottom of the truth.

Unlike me, you are not alone.

I set the rule that [you can only see the content of this letter when you merge into the world].

Now that you have read this letter, you must have a lot of power.

You don’t have to rely on yourself. Your own power is small, but everyone’s power is powerful. With everyone’s help, you may be able to find the truth about Him.

——This is the last advice I can give you, because in the dimension I am in, the path I am walking on has also been denied by Him. 》

He...

Chen Yan thought of Xanthium's words in the fragments of generations he just saw——

【He is by your side. 】

……

……

Chen Yan did not go back to the Mechanical Hive.

He had gotten enough answers and the truth was about to come out.

He needed final verification.

He used the Eye of the Demihuman King to manipulate his sight and find his wish in the real world.

"The investigation has produced results."

Wishful's face was full of exhaustion. She looked at the little person with Chen Yan's image on the screen and listened to Chen Yan's greetings to her. Her eyes became strong.

Wish's investigation verified some of Chen Yan's guesses.

“What I said may subvert your previous understanding.

But anyway, please listen to the end. "

In the dark space, on the body of [Eternal Death] parasitic on the earth, the wish said:

“There are two [Eternal Deaths], one of which comes from you in the real world.

When you die in the real world, your body turns into [Eternal Death], occupying the entire universe and reducing the scope of human activities to a small area on the earth.

The second of them exists within the earth itself. "

Desire restrained the excitement in his tone:

"Only your death will give birth to [Eternal Death], so this [Eternal Death] on earth should have appeared due to your death at some point in the past.

But this is the real world!

This is the real world where people cannot be resurrected!

How can you die twice?

There is only one answer——

This world is not the real world! "

Although Chen Yan was mentally prepared, he still felt like there was a rumbling in his head.

The "world deeper than the real world" that Miao Shuisheng said really exists!

Wishes took out his notebook, opened a picture, and showed it to Chen Yan:

"This is what the sun looks like surrounded by [eternal death] beyond the earth."

Chen Yan looked at the picture.

On top of the extremely high-resolution picture, a black sun spanned the sky wrapped in [Eternal Death].

The edge of the black sun is not a halo, but an extremely long, petrified white snake!

“This photo is a pattern I captured by hacking into the company’s space radio telescope.

How could such a thing exist? It must be some kind of 'symbol'! "

Chen Yan whispered:

"The white snake biting the sun...what does it mean?"

wish said:

“What is important is not only the symbol [Sun Devouring], but also the symbol [Ending].

Ouroboros symbolizes a [circle], which you can think of as [completeness], or [completeness].

I have said before that this world is not the real real world, it also has strong [spiritual] attributes.

For [Spirit], what does [Perfection] represent? "

Chen Yan replied:

"It's... logic!

The perfection of spiritual will is the closed loop of logic. "

[White Snake] is some kind of [logical closed loop]!

Wishes whispered:

“In the spiritual world of [eternal death]—in this world we live in, what kind of person needs a closed loop of logic?”

Chen Yan gave the answer he had prepared for a long time:

"He is a person with a broken spirit and will."

"it's me."
