Metaphysics boss 4 and a half years old: My aunt’s milk is so sweet

Chapter 541 Common Ground

Ranran's brain was aching and she gradually regained consciousness. She seemed to be lying on something. She moved her fingers slightly and felt an incredibly soft touch at her fingertips.

Gradually, she heard a sound in her ears, a voice that she was somewhat familiar with, the tender and sweet voice of a little girl.

"Why did you imitate me in choosing a name? I was the only one with a name among us, and now you have one too. Do you know that this is called plagiarism!?"

The voice was indignant, as if it cared greatly about the name of the person it was talking to.

Ranran's consciousness was not yet fully clear, so he did not analyze too much and quickly came up with the name "Yunkong".

"Stupid. Naming is a very common thing among the humans on Blue Star. It has nothing to do with plagiarism. Even if someone gives you the same name as you, it is not considered plagiarism. Do you understand?"

The other voice sounded like that of a young man, also someone Ranran knew.

Yunqi was so angry that he almost scratched her with his claws. The young man said calmly: "If you really don't agree, you can wait until she wakes up and ask her in person."

"But you're entangled in such a boring question. It's ridiculous."

Yunqi felt her teeth itching, "Don't act so noble, if you didn't care you wouldn't argue with me so much, you usually don't even bother to talk."

The young man sneered indifferently.

Yunkong knew that there was no way he could compete with the young man who looked very smart, so he just expressed his unhappiness to make himself feel better.

It had an extremely unhappy face and asked, "Why did you choose such a name?"

"[Dead]... Do you want to die?"

A smile appeared on the young man's lips, "It's a secret. I won't tell you."

Yunkong was even more frantic, "Where on earth did you learn this ability? You can actually block the consciousness of the rest of us. You know, we are a group."

"This is a rule that has been in effect on us since we were born. How on earth did you manage to break it?"

The young man raised his eyebrows. "Your attitude is indeed different. You are indeed the only one like me who has a name."

"Other consciousnesses strongly disagree with my approach."

Yunkong spread his hands, "Please, this is really necessary."

"I don't want other consciousnesses to know everything I do on Blue Planet. That's my personal privacy!"

Yunkong waved his little fist while saying this, and he looked very cute, which showed that he believed in this sentence very much.

The young man's eyes darkened, "Personal privacy..."

Whether he wanted to admit it or not, the disease called "Difference" that was implanted into their collective was terrifyingly effective.

He clearly knew what kind of harm [Difference] would bring to the cluster, but he still enjoyed it.

"There's actually no special way." The young man said calmly, "As long as you want to do it, it's fine."

"As long as you want to?" Yunkong shouted, "You are kidding me again!"

"I'm serious." The young man's face was full of seriousness, "This ability to shield you came to me naturally."

"I thought about it, and then I did it, and it felt like..."

The young man's beautiful eyes shone with wonder, "Inevitable evolution."

“The evolution that inevitably occurred in us after our group was exposed to [difference].”

Yunkong just found it unbelievable. "Like that group of humans, suspicious of each other, full of myths that can never be understood... Such a lowly thing is evolution?!"

"I admit that it's a very interesting and wonderful feeling, but our cluster's transparent thinking mode is more advanced!"

"We will never be suspicious of each other like humans are. It is precisely because of this that our technology can develop at a high speed, allowing us to have the ability to travel between different worlds."

"Exploration and plundering give us endless energy and immortality!" The young man didn't say anything after hearing this. He just felt...

No one can judge which one is better or more advanced.

Perhaps the current appearance of Blue Planet is the next step in their cluster evolution.

The young man calmly expressed his guess, and Yunkong was completely furious. Every soft hair on his head stood up in the air, and the two long braids were also stood up high to please Ranran.

"You are crazy! How can a higher being evolve into a lower one?! Other consciousnesses will tear you apart if they know your thoughts!"

The young man said casually: "Of course I know, so I have blocked them. Don't worry, your thoughts will not be conveyed to them either."

"But I don't agree with your idea. Higher and lower... How can you be sure that those humans are definitely lower than us?"

"Perhaps they had established a civilization more glorious than ours before, but after the passage of time, everything changed."

Yunkong curled his lips in dissatisfaction, "You have now abandoned even the most basic principles in order to quibble. Everything is an upward spiral."

"If Blue Planet once had a civilization more brilliant than ours, how could it have fallen to the point where we, a bunch of outsiders, can do whatever we want?"

The young man shook his head. "No, the determination of this principle has certain prerequisites."

“The prerequisite for success.”

Yunkong was stunned. "You mean that the humans on Blue Star failed to evolve and ended up like this?"

The young man was very happy that Yunkong was shaken by his theory. "Moreover, a civilization that has failed will sooner or later regain its previous experience. This also conforms to the principle of the spiral upward trend of things."

Yunkong looked back at Ranran lying on the bed and said, "It's really hard for me to imagine that Blue Star was once a civilization more advanced than ours."

The young man said methodically: "After experiencing so many worlds, we should learn that anything can happen."

"It's like we never thought that our minds would no longer be transparent."

"What our cluster is facing now, whether it is a disaster or an opportunity, has raised our understanding of life in the world to a new level."

The young man looked at his fingertips in fascination. Before this, their cluster had never had a physical entity made of flesh and blood.

"Who would have thought..." He also looked at Ran Ran, "Such a weak race could actually bring about such a big change in us..."

"And my inference is not without basis."

The young man looked seriously into Yunkong's eyes and said, "Blue Star is the only godless world we have conquered so far."

"Aren't you curious about the reason?"

Yunkong couldn't understand. "What else could it be? It's just naturally like this. It's like you and I both have cave-phobic consciousness, but you are naturally more imaginative than I am."

"Coincidence?" The young man smiled. "I prefer to regard it as a certain result of the evolution of matter."

"Hasn't that ever occurred to you?"

"There are no gods... This is what Blue Star and we have in common."

Ranran lay on the bed, thinking about what the young man said all the time.

She had always thought that [Godlessness] was just the reason why the Cave Consciousness treated their world specially, but she had never thought about how important this point was.

If [no god] is such an important criterion...

The Flower Eater once said that she carries the power of God, a demigod like Armand...

Only then did Ranran finally understand why the fear cave consciousness was so special to her.

The appearance of gods in a godless world, isn’t this worth exploring?
