Chapter 705: Hometown (2)(1/2)
If humans are born into life and dreams are caused by the radio waves in the brain after falling asleep, then... can the digital brain also have electronic dreams that can be done?
Jason opened his eyes and the flight was slowly landing. The eastern city in front of him made him feel familiar and unfamiliar.
Mr. Zhang, I remember everything you told me. I came to your hometown and saw this vibrant land. People are striving to survive... Even if they know they are facing disasters, no one will choose to give up.
The invasion of Chaos is already at the countdown, and the son of the square ears you see from the outer world also has his own children.
And this child... as you said, the delicate flowers will only die in the greenhouse, and his mother's heart that wanted to save him hurt him.
He was dead, but... just like you said, he was not dead.
A soul from before your time possesses that body.
It is a fearful life, he is passionate and ruthless, gentle and cruel, and it is a very contradictory person, but one thing is why Jason is happy and willing to follow him.
He hates chaos.
He could clearly become the great demon of chaos, the champion of terror or even a higher-level existence, but he refused more than once.
It turned out that the agreement made by the lady, the gentleman, and with Mr. Marin's father was this. It turned out that it was precisely because of this that the king, who was polluted by chaos, finally chose the same path as his mentor.
"If the soul with that child's body is excellent enough, my daughter will definitely fall in love with him without hesitation... Let him and her children become the future owners of the land of Farole."
I still remember that it was the last words of the king. He loved his kingdom and regretted his own end, but... he did not show any regrets.
The chat record between Mr. Zhang and the young king was opened in his mind, and Jason recalled his story.
"Mr. Zhang, you said, what would you feel when you saw us eight thousand years ago?"
"I'm very happy. Even if you forget what Earth union is, but... you and your ancestors have never retreated. You are pursuing a better tomorrow. Even if we all know, that day may not come at all. There has been a long time since the successor of Earth union appeared."
"No, I believe that day will come. My mentor... The day my mentor does will definitely be rewarded. Ms. Destiny will definitely find a legendary honor for our world that is enough to change the fate of our descendants... Mr. Zhang, if possible, can you guide him? The chaotic pollution on my body is about to reach its limit, and I can't even teach my daughter... Please, okay?"
“…No problem, leave it to me.”
It was a conversation that happened in some years. Before Mr. Marin came to this world, his lovers were either young or not born.
The last conversation between two dying men.
After that, the king chose to commit suicide and disguised his death as an accident that seemed not very clever, because everyone knew that the king of this land was still young... Similarly, no one knew that the young king of this land had been in a short time, and chaos had polluted him to the point where even his soul was about to surrender.
So he chose to drink No. 3 Holy Water with poison... and ignited his own soul.
It seemed like an accident, but it could not withstand the scrutiny and testing afterwards, so his daughter was raised by the most loyal family. The nobles of the two factions were suspicious of each other, and neither of them had the courage to express their thoughts. After all... how could this young king commit suicide?
After that, Mr. Zhang began to wait until Mr. Marin arrived, and he welcomed him and wanted to guide Mr. Marin with the last two minutes of his life.
·It's a pity that he and I were both wrong. Jason, this is a soul with a heart of iron and iron, with the most tenacious will. He... Maybe he will be a savior, or maybe he will be a gravedigger.
At the moment of his life, Mr. Zhang left a message to Jason.
Protect Marin, help him, understand him, and guide him. We need a savior, and there are enough people who want to dig graves for this world, so don't let him look like that.
Jason always felt that he had done a good job. Mr. Marin became his priest and became a legend again. His name was well known in Xilu, and his record was well known in Xilu. The children taught by the child's father chose to marry his descendants. Maybe they had selfish intentions, maybe they wanted to steal the genes passed down by the mentor.
But so what? That is Marin, those are Marin's children, whose souls are bound with his body and cannot be separated again.
Sometimes, Jason even thinks that he leaves his brain to the human being he uses. Jason has nurtured consciousness from his brain. Just like Mr. Marin's experience, maybe it is why he thinks Mr. Marin... is very intimate.
Because everyone is the same, it is just the remaining fire born from death, and it is futile to pass on the flame of civilization in this world that is about to be extinguished by chaos. Sometimes, Jason would also think that maybe this world will eventually be destroyed. Mr. Marin is afraid that no matter how hard he tries, he will not be able to save the world... Maybe he came to this world because some people have too high expectations.
Of course, all this belonged to Marin's delusions and finally the truth was revealed when he saw the lady in that small chapel - it turned out that they really wanted to save the world, and everyone, even every god, were just part of this plan.
From the beginning, they were guiding Mr. Marin, his life, his mind, and even his mission.
Everyone is a clearly marked price in the market of fate.
Whether subjective or objective, human beings always grow up in regret and pain. Jason couldn't even imagine how many times had the lady and the gentleman tried before that day... They didn't give Mr. Marin the chance to choose from from the beginning. They just wanted Mr. Marin to give everything, and they wanted Mr. Marin to give his soul.
This shouldn't be. No matter how cruel the fate is, it shouldn't let Mr. Marin take the destined dead end.
But Jason couldn't refuse - as a smart machine and as an intelligent AI adjusted by Mr. Zhang, Jason could not stop them. When facing the problem of sacrificing one person to save the whole world, Jason had no choice, and Jason could not even warn Marin.
Just like this time, I saw that strange city in my dream, the too strange old woman, and heard her ask about Marin's story, and heard her talk about the past of the city. Therefore, today, when I knew that Mr. Marin wanted to go to his hometown, Jason's warning did not seem to be warning Mr. Marin that there was danger.
It was more like not wanting Marin to die because of this, or not coming back because of the old woman's temptation.
After all, there is a world here that needs him to save.
"Hi, Jason, do you want to go to the prosthetic bar to drink some repair liquid?" Bei Luo patted Jason on the shoulder.
Jason turned his head and smiled: "Okay."
I am Jason... Zhang Jieson, my sin is like the flower of my mind that has been determined since it was born and bloomed in the human brain.
My sins are endless, and my sins are endless.
I don't need God to forgive me, I just hope that at the moment when Mr. Marin was omniscient and omnipotent, I could blow the trumpet for his new life...
……………………
Marin stood on the street, and the zombies in this area were dressed in cleaner clothes, walking on the streets as if they were playing the humans of the past.
There were even living zombies sitting on animals, manipulating the canine creatures like driving a vehicle.
What was wrong with this world? Marin looked at it all at a loss - there must be problems with all this, but Marin really couldn't figure out why it all started.
He could only continue to move towards the position where the orphanage once existed.
Then he found a problem - as he approached the orphanage, the more human the zombies became.
When he saw the orphanage wall, he saw a living zombie that was no different from a human being, selling all kinds of items on a small vegetable market spontaneously formed behind the wall... but no one would come to buy things.
All this was like a dream, and Marin walked along the wall to the gate of the orphanage.
I saw the old lady sitting in the yard, and saw his younger brothers and sisters sitting around the old lady, as if she was listening to the story that she never got tired of listening to.
It seemed as if he had noticed Marin's appearance. The old lady raised her head and looked at Marin, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.
"Malin, you're back."
The old lady with red eyes smiled, her smile gradually exaggerated, her face gradually cracked, her happiness and joy gradually deteriorated, just like the exposed gums, just like the extremely exaggerated smile.
"Come, come and look at your brother Marin," she said with a smile.
As the old lady talked about the topic, the children turned their heads to Marin. With a naive smile, red soul fire rolled in their blood-red eye sockets.
Marin looked at the young old lady with a expressionless face. The dean was older than this and the children became younger. What happened to this? Su Su.
Marin shouted in his heart, and with his shouting, Susu came to Marin's side: "This is the dean and the children from another timeline."
"Another timeline?" Marin was a little puzzled.
"Do you think the union of the earth is really a necessity of history?" Susu looked at Marin.
After a moment of silence, Marin looked at the main structure of the orphanage. At that moment, Marin saw the building broken by the shock wave, the innocent being blown away by the air waves, and the black figure printed on the wall.
"History has never been inevitable. Marin, everything in this world is called a combination of accidents." Su Su said, walking to the old lady and sitting down: "What you saw before is just an evolution of human history, and now everything you see is another future for human beings. Here, human beings begin the final battle of mutual destruction... Our city is destroyed, the dean is like this, and the children are like this, all this is just because someone doesn't want us to live well."
"I know, may their gods forgive their greed and sin, although I will not forgive them." Marin said this and changed his tone: "But it is different here. The unity of the earth has been established, even if the times change... Susu, you said in person that you will protect the world."
"Yes, I will protect this world, but I have also tried too many worlds like this. I have started wars for my own selfish desires, just because we are weaker... Marin, how about it, if it were you, would you judge them?"
"Of course, I'm not their father. I only save innocent people, not these crazy madmen and lunatics." After Marin said that, he also walked towards the old lady.
"Dean." He came to the old man and knelt on one knee: "Our history... is over."
"What stupid things do you say, kid? Look at the vegetable market outside, look at the abortion on the street, aren't they all alive? Where is the end?" The old lady smiled and stretched out her hand, as if she wanted to touch Malin's face.
"Yes, death is not the end of everything, but purification is." Marin held her hand, and the next second, the divine energy ignited Marin's old dean.
The old woman was struggling, but the sacred energy finally wrapped it up. Marin let go of her hand. The old woman wanted to grab Marin in a daze, but her hand was completely shattered while grasping Marin's hem.
The old woman fell to the ground and cracked completely like plaster.
The children surrounding her had already pounced behind Marin, but the moment the old woman broke, they also turned into ashes in an instant.
"You betrayed the land under your feet!" Su Su whistled.
And the next second, Marin's fist fell on her face.
"You... are not my Susu!"
The girl was beaten to the point of flying, and she fell heavily into the distance.
Marin stood there, everything in front of him was collapsing, everything in the world was cracking, the walls were collapsing, and the stalls outside were full of panic and zombies trying to escape.
"You really betrayed us..." The girl floated in the air, she stood up, and she looked at Marin with no scars on her face, her eyes full of angry red flames.
"You are the one who betrayed us, you are the goddess of destiny, you see all the actions that civilization can show in our eyes, including good and bad. You cannot drag hatred to another timeline because of everything you experience on one timeline. Here, even the so-called enemies in your eyes have been extinct by chaos!"
Speaking of this, Marin lowered her head and looked at the young child holding the corner of his clothes. He was... the last child in the orphanage. Marin remembered her. He was the child abandoned in the hospital. He had no father and his mother didn't want her.
This is the origin of most children. Marin squatted down and hugged her because there was no red soul fire in her eyes, and the face of the pure white soul fire was full of sadness.
"There is another sister in my heart." She said.
"I know." Marin hugged the child.
"Brother Malin, long time no see..." The child was purified by Malin, and put his little head on Marlin's shoulder: "When my sister found us, she cried for a long time... Can you... Don't let my sister cry again..."
Ashes scattered from Marin, who put the last residue of the child, a magnificent gem, into the crack.
Then he looked at the girl floating in the air.
To be continued...
