Son of the Stars

Chapter 183 Shining Star
"Ah...how wonderful." On the flexible screen about seventeen inches in size, Wu Hou stretched himself out. While the AI ​​stretched, the multi-dimensional camera module above the flexible screen also moved up and down.

Li Xiaohui stood beside Wu Hou, looking unbearable.

"Don't put on such a sad expression." Wu Hou turned to look at Li Xiaohui, then shook his head and sighed, "Of course it is a good thing to have emotions, but at times like this, emotions will become a dangerous factor that hinders human survival."

Li Xiaohui didn't speak. She looked at the city in the distance with black smoke gradually rising, and suddenly shed a few tears.

"The Great Collapse is a pair of very sharp scissors. The excess branches must be cut off so that the plants can grow correctly." Wu Hou was floating in place, with the two rotors above his head spinning rapidly, making bursts of buzzing sounds - as if he was Electric lawn trimmer for tree trimming. Its voice was calm and confident, and there was no hint that it had ever been on the side of humanity, helping humanity fight against a major collapse.

In short, the current Wuhou is a little different from the previous Wuhou.

"You're just an AI, why should you decide whether humans are right or wrong?" Li Xiaohui spat on the ground angrily, "Shut your mouth!"

"It's normal that you don't agree with my actions." Wuhou had no special reaction to Li Xiaohui's curse. Like all other AIs, Wuhou did not have superfluous designs and systems such as emotions. But this does not prevent it from having the ability to understand emotions far beyond its peers, and even far beyond humans. "You are also human, and as a member of this species, your biological instinct requires that you must be blinded by emotion - to protect the entire group."

The "paper man" floating in the air turned around completely, looked at Li Xiaohui standing on the hillside, and said with a smile on his face and pride, "But I won't - I only care about the survival of mankind. No matter what the price is, it is worth it as long as the human species can continue to survive..."

"Even if it is humanity itself that pays this price?"

"Even if it is humanity itself that pays the price."

Li Xiaohui's expression was unnatural. There was no doubt that it felt uncomfortable to be the price.

"Why does a big collapse have to happen? Why does a big collapse have to kill so many people so that humans can continue to survive?" Li Xiaohui asked, "So many people died... there must be a purpose, right?"

"The Great Collapse is beneficial to mankind." Wu Hou shook the feather fan in his hand, and the flexible screen floating in the air also shook together. "We need an efficient method to reduce the population as quickly as possible, and then we can give people Provide enough isolation space for everyone - from the perspective of pathogenesis, the quantum release syndrome pandemic is inevitable, but there will always be some populations that can survive..."

"You know that everyone can suffer from quantum potential energy syndrome, right?" Li Xiaohui interrupted Wu Hou's confession, "All known patients with quantum potential energy syndrome have had a major collapse attack, which made everyone panic. A collapse is a deliberate attempt to create more susceptible people.”

"You know very little about quantum release syndrome, but there are many speculations about the Great Collapse." Wu Houhun said nonchalantly, "There is nothing wrong with reducing the population - even if the calculation is wrong, less population means more Easy to save, you know that there were once only a thousand people left in the human race, right? In theory, as long as there are two hundred people, the human species can maintain sufficient genetic diversity..."

Li Xiaohui didn't say anything else. She just touched the corner of her clothes on the right side with her right hand, and then pressed the small disc in the corner of her clothes hard.

His face was calm, but his finger joints were faintly white.
-
Lu Chen felt something was wrong with his mind.

In fact, it was a bit difficult for him to even have this idea. Ever since he saw the angry faces of the people whose houses were damaged, Lu Chen suddenly seemed to have suffered from some kind of... strange mental illness.

It's like ten million people who were too nagging when they were alive, so their tongues were pulled out and suppressed for a hundred thousand years after death. Now they can finally speak again, so the evil ghost who keeps chattering has been stuffed into his brain. Same here. Lu Chen felt that there must be something wrong with his brain - there were 100 million thoughts in his mind at the same time.

Ninety-nine and ninety-nine thousand of those thoughts were thoughts of death.

This world is filled with absurdities from the very beginning. It is impossible for the human species to evolve naturally and exist in this world - why are other natural species not affected by the Great Collapse and Quantum Energy Release Syndrome? The world is a self-consistent structure, and only humans float outside this structure.

This world is by no means real, it is full of traces of deliberate fabrication.

Ultimately, if the Great Collapse was really a "disease" caused by abnormal electron rotation, how could it be cured by a historical documentary? Documentaries ranging from forty to one hundred and thirty minutes in length, each with a different playing environment and duration. Put a person with an abnormal rotation direction of the external electrons of lithium atoms in the brain on the bed and force him/her to watch the documentary, and there is a high probability that the patient's symptoms will improve.

This is like a capybara in the jungle pooping, and the magpie suddenly becomes full after smelling the smell of feces in the air.

No matter how you look at it, there is absolutely no possible logical relationship between these two things. No matter what good food the capybara eats, no matter how many nutrients and energy its excrement contains that have not been fully absorbed and utilized, this excrement will never make the magpie who smells it feel full.

No matter the wildest reasoning or association from any angle, this phenomenon cannot be explained. These are anomalies that should not be linked together and cannot be linked together at all.

After Mu Zhiran discovered that "the big collapse was caused by the abnormal rotation direction of electrons outside the lithium element," no one raised this issue.

There's something wrong with this world, and it's definitely not real.

Lu Chen held his head, feeling a splitting headache. The 99.99 million thoughts in his mind are proving to him at an extremely fast speed that "this world is not real." The most frightening thing is that these 99.99 million thoughts are all clear It's audible, logical, and all...his own thoughts.

The brain begins to boil and the soul gradually melts into pieces. The 99.99 million sounds are like radio bursts traveling thousands of light years, forcibly distorting the poor carbon-based creatures they pass by. It is a form that cannot be directly understood by organisms, and it distorts the cognition and even thinking of carbon-based organisms in an incomprehensible way.

The world is false and indescribable. The incomprehensible medium passes through the entire universe at the speed of light, burning humans who are floating outside the rules of the world.

Do you still have the courage to continue living? This world is too cruel, and the existence of human beings is more like a disobedience or accident to the world - this species should not exist in the first place.

There is nothing there, so why stir up dust?
Take action, correct this world, entrust your soul to eternal nothingness and darkness, and stay away from those worlds that make people confused and painful, and are composed of nothingness and absurdity.

Lu Chen closed his eyes tightly, then opened them suddenly - his sclera was covered with thin bloodshot streaks.

"Large-scale suicides are taking place in all human settlements, and no place is immune to them. Even in Antarctic scientific research stations and space stations, great collapses are harvesting lives in patches..."

Lu Chen blinked and tried to free his consciousness from the ninety-nine and ninety-nine million voices.

He looked at the screen in front of him and suddenly felt a coolness in his head - like a thin, cool mist on a hot summer day falling on his brain that was still boiling just a moment ago.

It still hurts and feels uncomfortable. But the presence of that cool feeling is too strong, so powerful that it can challenge the most profound pain that can melt the soul even though it is weak.

"The human species has faced the crisis of extinction countless times. Ice ages, wild beasts, earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, wars, wars, and wars have not been able to eliminate them, nor can they eliminate us." The background sound of the historical documentary that I have watched countless times He said, "Human beings can survive not because of powerful force, nor because of wonderful evolution, nor because we are more hardworking than other species. Unity is the key to the survival of the human species."

Lu Chen took a deep breath and then exhaled.

Solidarity is not just a term describing social or biological activities.

It is a physical term used to explain a phenomenon - when a group of lithium atoms in the human nervous system become entangled with electrons, they behave abnormally.

From the time the Tianguan guest star began to shine in the sky in 1054, the fate of mankind has been completely tied to each other.
