Chapter 769 Creator's Easter Egg?

"Forget it, I don't understand what you said, it's too far away..."

Yakumo Zi fell into deep thought as a matter of course, but after a while, she shook her head again and said with a little regret.

"People always have something to pursue, what if it comes true..." Xia Ran smiled slightly, and calmed down, not letting those chaotic thoughts affect her.

After all, as Yakumo Zi said, all this is still too far away.

"Anyway, I'm not human." The monster girl's eyes drifted, she gently put down her parasol, then raised her fan, gently covering the lower half of her beautiful face.

"..."

"..."

Really convincing answer!
Xia Ran shook her eyebrows helplessly, and said: "Actually speaking seriously, Zi you are actually closer than me. After all, you also know that although everything flows from the original root, and then one by one like a branch Differentiate into various forms..."

"So in theory, all concepts of things, everything, everything, all existence can be traced back to the first cause of the original reason for existence... But there are always some existences, which are inherently closer to the root and belong to the first differentiation The twig that comes out..."

Tao produces one, one produces two, two produces three, and three produces all things.

"Everything" is the most inferior concept, and it is the form of all tangible and intangible myriad phenomena after the root has been differentiated countless times;
Then "one", "two", and "three" are the process of "Tao" creating all things. Although they are not "Tao" itself, they are naturally more metaphysical than the specific subordinate things that have been differentiated countless times. a priori is closer to the first cause.

"Because of my realm power?"

The monster girl pouted, knowing what this person was referring to.

"That's right, just like talent, aptitude, and ability, they have been determined since birth, and are often described as so-called bloodlines and genes, but in fact, they belong to a deeper level of directionality that serves as the cause of existence." .”

Xia Ran said calmly:
"If there is a past life, then there should be a past life of the past life, right? Even from a scientific point of view, there is a so-called theory of reincarnation. All molecules flow, and all things can be transformed into other things..."

So, even if you were not a person in your previous life, you are not even a thing in your previous life.

But the thread of being continues forever, and must be traced back to some beginning cause that determines why things exist.

"That's the so-called origin. In the vortex of all sources, a certain directionality occurs like lightning. It is inherent and will never change. The essence that is more essential than the previous life has been determined innate..."

Saying this in a slightly sour tone, Xia Ran looked at the blond monster girl delicately.

"As a monster of the realm, your origin is very close to the original nothingness, so you have this ability to approach the root...From this point of view, Zi you are actually closer to that place than me."

That's why the magicians of the realm behaved so terrifyingly. Even the illusory existence like a mirror image and a water moon can easily leverage the law of cause and effect.

Even the current Xia Ran is still not sure of surpassing the state of fusion between himself and Yakumo Zi, that state is like an extension of his own siblings, everything in the world seems to be the same as himself, a powerful feeling with two sides of one body, It's really overwhelming.

"What's the use of being close? It's like Buddhism also says that everyone has Buddha nature, but can it really make everyone awaken to become a Buddha? This is obviously impossible."

Yakumo Zi didn't feel very happy because of this, but just replied casually: "As long as you can't reach the root, then everything is the same. The specific things in the metaphysical and the superior concepts in the metaphysics are actually the same..."

"People always have dreams... Well, never mind, Zi, why are you so salty..."

Xia Ran twitched the corner of her mouth helplessly, and was planning to continue using the previous routine, but thinking about the other party's answer not long ago, she wisely shut up.Because it's useless, the other party is very straightforward and well-founded.

This monster idler seems to be completely hopeless, obviously in the memories he shared, she has been a fearsome monster for thousands of years in the past.

Not to mention the absolute strength, after all, he has reached the peak of the big monster, and his wisdom is even more frightening...

She foresaw the decline of the fear of the world and the mysterious decline early on, so she also started planning early on to find a final shelter for inhuman things. Disagreement guy.

For example, because she couldn't convince most monsters with only muscles in their brains, she took the initiative to start the war between monsters and the moon, and easily achieved the goal of eradicating dissidents.

Although later, with the development of civilization, people gradually believed in science and intelligence, and excluded the dark part from their lives as superstition. The history of humans and monsters opened a new page, and everything proved that Yakumo Zi is correct.

However, the skills and character she showed still made countless people fear, respect and fear her, so she was called "monster sage".

It's a pity that it is such a fascinating legendary body, but what Xia Ran sees now is her traits of being a loafer or a salty person who only has a black belly and a bad taste... After 180 days of drying, she has a delicious sun. Out of freshness, it's really worse than Yuyuko——

After all, in some respects, Yuyuko still has a lot of pursuit and action.

So, how did she become like this? After the establishment of Gensokyo, in just a few hundred years, the comfortable life made her lose all the virtues accumulated in the past thousands of years?

Xia Ran felt a little heartbroken, and even hated iron for being weak. After all, for him who has mastered Yakumo Zi's entire past life, all the memories and experiences, the big monster of the realm really has no secrets to speak of.

So from his point of view, it is natural to see very clearly how the monster girl lost all her morals little by little, from the strength and wisdom in the past, to such a black-bellied and terrible appearance...

"Are you thinking about something bad again?"

The blond monster girl suddenly felt a chill, as if someone had slandered her deeply from the soul level.

"No..." Of course she would not admit this, Xia Ran sighed to divert the other party's attention, "Okay, now, Zi, you should make a decision, right? Let me tell you."

"Huh?" The monster sage was taken aback for a moment, "Do you know my plan?"

"I know, after all, if you don't have any ideas, then after reading my memory, you will already know what I have gained, so there is no need to go on a field trip, right?" Xia Ran thinks this is obvious.

"Oh, then I won't be polite..."

Saying this softly, the blond monster girl covered the lower half of her face with the fan in her hand, her crooked eyes were full of smiles.

"Can I choose?"

"Well, except for those two that are not suitable for you to interfere..." The Creator in the void nodded calmly, just stretched out his hand and pointed out the two blue planets surrounded by false solar systems, expressing These two are exceptions.

He also probably knew what Yakumo Zi wanted to do, so these two plane worlds were naturally not suitable for her to interfere.

"Well, what a stingy man, why Moriya Shrine can interfere, but I can't..."

In fact, Yakumo Zi didn't have the idea of ​​choosing those two targets, but she still had a bad taste, she pretended to be resentful, and complained like this.

During the inspection just now, she naturally discovered a certain world in it, what Sanae Dongfengya was talking about with Mordred.

Perhaps due to her professional habits developed in the past, she peeped... Ahem, and watched the discussion of the two girls, so it is naturally very clear that the blue and white witch is enthusiastically preparing to preach in another world, and she has also received With Mordred's permission.

This is the gap. Reimu is probably holding a cup of tea, sitting in front of the steps of the shrine, sighing "today's Gensokyo is also a day of peace", and waiting for the banquet to begin...

They are all witches, why is there such a big gap?Wouldn't Lingmeng feel ashamed if he was so salty?

——Yakumo Zi couldn't help but worry about the lazy Hakurei Miko.

But that's not the point. The point is that it wasn't Mordred who allowed Moriya Shrine to enter the arena, but that Xia Ran didn't object... Isn't this treating one more than another?
"It's different. They are mainly for preaching. They have little influence and are different from what you want to do." Xia Ran was not affected by Yakumo Zizhuang's tenderness at all, and she didn't even lift her eyelids.

"Tch, I really don't understand the style... But forget it, a person like you will probably never be liked by a girl in his life, so I won't argue with you, thank you very much..."

Yakumo Zi exhaled, quickly stretched out her hand, and pointed in a certain direction.

"Then let's do that. It doesn't need too much investment. Let's use one to test the water first... If you fail, you won't lose anything. How about it, am I good enough for you?"

"..."

"..."

"That's what I said, but what I picked was the largest and most complete space-time, which is not convincing at all." Xia Ran's eyes twitched a few times, Zi was really kind to him, and he couldn't bear it. Live to be moved.

But this is really not a big investment. He directly manipulated his various management rights as a person in authority, and locked the rapidly evolving plane world in an instant, replacing it in front of him.

As if time and space were flying by at high speed, a huge crystal wall system shell ball quickly approached from far away, and appeared in front of Yakumo Zi.

It is a huge shell ball containing a "planetary system" inside. It seems to be simulating the star system of the real universe. It is a multi-structured plane world formed by splicing multiple times and spaces, and it has been perfected to a certain extent.

The monster sage looked happily, and looked through the blurry crystal wall-like shell to the plane world she was going to use for experiments.

In the time evolution accelerated by someone with his own thoughts, fallen leaves floated to the earth one after another, seeds fell asleep under the white snow, and flowers bloomed and withered quickly. In the shadow of the flowing light, the star map kept changing. Mountains rise up, land sinks and turns into seas.

It's like the enhanced shots in some programs that are obviously accelerated and fast-forwarded, fully expressing the feeling of time rushing.

And in this process, the rise and fall of species, the evolution of civilization, the change of history, everything is developing at an accelerated pace.For the countless beings in those worlds, the turning point that determines civilization, affects the history of a hundred generations, and the magnificent changes are often only in a flash.

"Actually, I suggest that you throw those monsters to a plane without intelligent creatures..."

At this time, Xia Ran was thinking about giving his own suggestion. He knew that Yakumo Zi felt that he had seen the way out for the next stage of Gensokyo, but he always felt that this monster sage also fell into some kind of cognitive limitations. middle.

"Why?" The blond monster girl glanced at him.

"Fear or belief is always needed to maintain one's own existence and strength. This form of existence cannot last for a long time..."

Xia Ran gave an example: "I talked to Kanako and the others before. Kanako used to collect beliefs to support herself, but she never relied on them. As for Suwako, it was because she was born without a soul, and she was purely composed of beliefs. Indigenous god, there is no other way..."

"Without a fearful environment, they will all die." The monster sage frowned slightly.

"Life will always find a way..." Xia Ran scratched her cheeks, and couldn't help complaining, "And Zi, you have to consider the actual situation, even if it is the most ordinary wolf in the magic forest, put these In the world, that body type is..."

How should I put it, it was simply crushing.

Just like Gulliver arrived in Lilliputian, these "prehistoric monsters" with a body length of hundreds of meters and can easily climb mountains and cross rivers and oceans are fine if they are rare, but if there are too many, they will definitely hurt the little ones. The ecology of the human country has been dealt a devastating blow.

It can't last long by itself. If the little creatures in the plane world are extinct like this, no one can continue to provide them with supplies such as fear or faith.

It's impossible for them to develop like locusts, so they have to find their own way... because the versions are not compatible at all, and the style of painting is completely wrong, so they can only develop some territory by themselves.

Instead of brutally putting them into the already developed sand table system, that would only cause both sides to collapse and perish at the same time.

"Let me think about it first..."

The monster sage didn't make a decision hastily, but just thought about it.

But soon, she seemed to remember something, raised her head and looked at the other party playfully: "Speaking of which, you actually have a simulation world, remember?"

"...I remember." The boy blinked and said noncommittally, "What's wrong?"

"Because of the speed of time, and you still outsourced that simulated world, so haven't you noticed it for a long time?" Zi's smile was dark, like a little fox who stole a chicken, "It seems that I forgot to tell you, That world is in some trouble right now..."

"Can there be any trouble?" Xia Ran didn't care, and was not easily fooled, "It hasn't been long in real time, and aren't you still watching? If something serious happens, Zi, you must tell me immediately Well, how could you forget?"

"Hmph, you are very confident, but what if I told you that someone found the easter egg you left?"

"The group of people like me?"

"Huh? You got it?" Yakumo Zi was not very happy, and she was going to give the other party a "surprise", but it seemed that the other party seemed to be in control.

"It's just a guess, but they should be the only ones. After all, if the aborigines find the creation egg, they won't understand what it is. For them, it's either weird or sacred. Anyway, they are superstitious, so naturally they don't feel anything wrong. Watch the impact of the collapse..."

The Creator rested his hand on his chin, and said thoughtfully, with a calm expression on his face.

"As for the players, they absolutely don't have the strength to find those places at present. Even if they find them, they just laugh it off, and at most they post a post on the forum to brag, because for them, that world It's just a game, and it's normal to find easter eggs that don't fit in with the worldview..."

"—So, probably only my colleagues?"
