Chapter 45 EndingChapter 45 Ending

"...Then, what exactly is Chu Jun trying to do by showing all this in front of me?"

"The original Sibyl system was indeed designed to plan the happiness of mankind, but with the improvement of the system, the disadvantages have also been revealed." Ye Jiuchu did not answer Makishima Shenghu's question, but said to himself, "More and more people rely on the system, just like what you said, the Guardian, they lose the ability to 'think', and many people become the walking dead under the Sibyl system... If this situation continues If so, there must be no good results.

"I have been looking for a person who is determined enough to resist Sibyl System. Only my own strength is not enough. I need to find someone who can help me build a new world. When I met you, I thought I Such a candidate was found."

The youth's purple pupils swept across Makishima Seigo's body.There was a cold temperature in the bottom of his eyes. Rather than saying that he was disappointed, it would be better to say that he had completely seen the gap between the two of them.

"I stayed by your side, never intervening in your plans, and even erasing some traces of you left in some places... But, the longer we get along, the more I understand that you, the Holy Guardian Some of the thoughts I have are really distressing me."

"Oh?" Makishima Shenghu raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Although you say that you want to see the brilliance of human nature, you want to discover the brilliance of the human soul", but in fact, what you dig out is more of the dark side of human nature. ——You are not what I think someone to look for."

A person who is determined enough to resist the Sibyl System should have the idea of ​​making everyone happy. In this regard, Makishima Seigo, who treats all of this as a game, cannot meet the standard.

——He didn't regard himself as the savior to save the common people, and he didn't have more ambitions to be a superior and create a new world.

The Guardian never thought of "creating" a new world.

In Japan under the rule of the Sibyl System, it is "harmonious and peaceful" to put it nicely, but it is actually "a pool of stagnant water" at a bad point. The purpose of the Holy Guardian is not to overthrow Sibyl and build a new world, but to "see human nature" He is neither a revolutionist nor a leader. In the process of accomplishing the above two goals, he created a lot of chaos and even caused social riots.It's like when a child is playing a game and messing up the house.

Of course, during this process, if someone feels that Sibyl System should be overthrown, it is just an unexpected gain for him; if Sibyl System is finally overthrown by the awakened people, this man can only be regarded as the initial kindling.

——I hate this Sibyl System, but at the same time, I have to affirm the necessity of the Sibyl System at this stage.

Only such people can oppose the current Sibyl System and build a new society.

Makishima Shōgo does not meet such standards at all.

"If you say that..." Makishima Shenghu, who was standing opposite Ye Jiuchu, smiled slightly.There was only a short distance between the two, he raised his head slightly, and looked at the black-haired young man who was much taller than him, the light flowing in his pupils was like broken gold: "You really found you?" Do you want... the person you found?"

"...Although it is still immature, there is already a preliminary possibility." Ye Jiuchu slightly lowered his head, his expression was very gentle at that moment.

"Really... did you find it?" Makishima Shenghu asked again as if emphasizing something.

Ye Jiuchu slightly frowned.

"Abandoning the memory is tantamount to betraying oneself." Makishima Shenghu said in a voice that almost sighed, with a cold voice that seemed to be approaching the heart at this moment, shaking the most fragile memory in the heart: " Have you really found the person you were looking for?"

Ye Jiuchu's pupils shrank slightly, and before he could say anything, Makishima Shenghu raised his hand and slapped Ye Jiuchu fiercely.

Ye Jiuchu, who hadn't realized that he would do this at all, was a little slowed by the sudden attack. He managed to dodge for a while, but was still rubbed against his cheek by the sharp fist, blood oozing out instantly.

"Perhaps Chu-kun didn't realize it himself, but your gaze on me...is it really just looking at me?" Makishima Seigo kept moving, and his fists and feet swung down with awe-inspiring killing intent, completely It can't be seen that the two people were still in friendly peace talks before.

Makishima Saint Guardian's attacks were basically aimed at the fragile places like the heart and throat. After Ye Jiuchu was at a loss at the beginning, he quickly came back to his senses and quickly put himself out of a somewhat disadvantaged situation. Reluctantly pulled back.

I have to say that Makishima Shenghu's skills are very good.

The shot is strong and powerful, and there is no slightest hesitation. This kind of fighting technique that uses violence to make people submit has long been outdated in today's society.

The more civilization develops, the less necessary it is to exercise. In fact, in a society operated by the Sibyl system, there are very few people who practice fighting skills other than athletes.It is precisely because of this that "people who have practiced" can completely overwhelm "people who have not practiced" when encountering special situations, and do things that others do not do, which guarantees their superiority.

Makishima Seigo has such advantages in many places.

If we only talk about this kind of talent and comprehension, this kind of him is a big reason why Ye Jiuchu took a fancy to him at the beginning.

"As you said at the beginning, I have no intention of becoming the so-called savior at all."

Saying that, Makishima Seigo jumped up to Ye Jiuchu who was protecting his head from his own attack, then raised the knife in his hand, and slashed down sharply.

It is not Ye Jiuchu's style to be suppressed all the time. He reached out and quickly grabbed Makishima Seigo's wrist, then clasped his neck, and mercilessly hit his fragile abdomen with his knee.

Makishima Shenghu didn't even utter a mournful cry, he broke away from Ye Jiuchu's hand with the force of being thrown out, then jumped up suddenly, and hit Ye Jiuchu's head with a roundabout kick, such a skillful movement The ground is like a woodcutter swinging an ax in the old society, and the momentum is so strong that even the uncle can break it with a single blow.

"All the ways I live are in pursuit of "living like a real person". I hate the Sibyl system only because I feel that the system kills humanity, so I don't want to be that kind of person at all. "

Ye Jiuchu raised his hand to block in front of him, and took the blow abruptly, and just as he expected, the force of this blow almost made his arm numb.Even in such a fierce battle, Makishima Shenghu did not stop preaching, which made Ye Jiuchu couldn't help frowning.

He originally thought that he knew this man well enough, but in fact, there seemed to be something he hadn't discovered. This feeling made him feel very uncomfortable. Coupled with the fight, his tone became very bad, "Do you think say what?"

"I have read countless books, but are the ecology of the distant past I have seen in the books and what I have encountered in my life the real answer? In this absurd society, the self I believe in There is also no basis for empathy for others.”

The high-intensity attack and defense is not easy for Makishima Shenghu, because the opponent, like him, is very proficient in this ancient fighting technique, and it can even be said to be even better.But he didn't give up and continued talking, as if he wanted to fully show his true self in front of this man in this battle:

"I said that I want to find the brilliance of the human soul, but I have also been constantly looking for the meaning of my own life and existence, and I want to find an answer to my own existence. Why am I the only one with such a physique, and why am I the only one who is Isolation from the Sibyl system... I'm also thinking about this kind of boring problem, is it like a child who is abandoned in a corner without a companion to play with... Uh——!"

One hand was restrained by the black-haired young man again, but this time he did not succeed in breaking free, but instead took the opportunity to suppress the other hand.

Ye Jiuchu almost used all his strength to keep him from breaking free, but the restraint of his hands did not make the opponent give up resistance. He quickly adjusted his posture and attacked Ye Jiuchu's lower body with one leg.

Ye Jiuchu's frown did not loosen, and he did not respond to Makishima Shenghu's words. He grabbed Makishima Shenghu's wrist and folded it down. The severe pain caused by this movement made the white-haired youth's words sound instantly , let out a short cry of pain.

Not wanting to play this kind of children's housekeeping game with him anymore, Ye Jiuchu turned Makishima Seigo's body over in such a posture, and then kicked him on the knee, and after a stagger, he was like a saint The noble and elegant white-haired young man knelt heavily on the ground in embarrassment, and even his face was pressed against the glass outside the "brain assembly" by him, unable to struggle any more.

"what do you want to say in the end?!"

His tone was really displeased.

"Hey..." Even so, Makishima Shenghu didn't seem to have any sense of fear, and his voice was so low that he was almost talking to himself, "Why, Chu-kun didn't let me--be a member of the Sibilla system?" ?”

Ye Jiuchu's hands tightened slightly.

"If I'm not mistaken, Kosaburo Fujima's brain is also among them. Unlike ordinary citizens, people with new ideas and values—most of these people have the so-called 'exemption physique'. Every time they find this kind of Valuable talents should be incorporated into the constituents of the Sibyl system, so that the system can often expand the field of thinking and obtain new possibilities as an intelligent body."

Although the posture was very awkward, this young man who seemed to perfectly display elegance and casualness didn't care about it, "But why, Chu Jun didn't want to—"

"Because you are Makishima Saint Guardian." Ye Jiuchu interrupted him.

Makishima Seigo's intelligence, profound knowledge, and insightful insight, every point can become the possibility of Sibyl's systematic progress.However, as Ye Jiuchu knew, he would not be happy to become a "mechanical" part.

Precisely because he is Makishima Shrine.

He is unwilling to erase the only meaning of this young man.

Hearing what he said, Makishima Shōgo smiled slightly. "Is that so... I am already tired of this world, but Chu Jun always wants to give me some hope."

But what's the use of this?

This person's eyes... didn't rest on him at all.

— from beginning to end.

Because I'm bored... I don't even want to do actions to survive.

The expression of the white-haired young man who closed his eyes seemed calm and indifferent, as if he had expected the final outcome very early. Ye Jiuchu's hands loosened and tightened, and his lips moved, but he only spoke very poor words:

"... Farewell, Guardian."

There will never be anyone like you again.

Ye Jiuchu thought this way, and then pulled out the pistol pinned to his back waist.

"Ms. Changshou Zhu, when you received this email, I think you already know the true face of the Sibyl system. Although you may not know my existence, please be sure to keep this email from the old The procedure of the social period."

"I leave this choice in your hands. Once the program in the USB flash drive is started, the database of the entire Sibyl system will completely collapse and cannot be recovered."

"I believe there will be such a day, please use it with caution."

The author has something to say:
