“…He’s different from us!”
"He's human! He's another species!"
Faced with the "life and death threat", the intelligence level of the "evil god's consciousness" seemed to increase rapidly.
Not only can he speak fluently, but he can also think quickly and say things that are beneficial to him.
“…our mission is…”
"Eat him... Devour him... Replace him!"
"Canglong City!"
"He is the Canglong City man of this era!"
The "evil god's consciousness" became a little anxious, and its "speech" became more and more fluent, and the information it revealed became more important and shocking.
Gu Ran looked at it in surprise. When he first met it, it seemed like a "mentally retarded child", but now it can speak the language at least at the level of an elementary school student.
However, what Gu Ran could not ignore was the content of its words.
"I have been constantly screening the people from Canglong City... Finally, I can be absolutely sure that he is the one we are waiting for!"
"The Core of the Evil God's Ark" said with certainty.
Gu Ran narrowed his eyes slightly.
"So your target is me?"
Through that thread of connection, Gu Ran conveyed his words.
"That's right! But it was only after I met you that I was sure that you were the human we had been looking for!"
The "evil god's consciousness" admitted it straightforwardly.
"Why did you want to find me? For this, you even went so far as to instigate the top leaders of Jidong City to kill millions of innocent people from Canglong City?" Gu Ran suppressed his anger.
Not to mention that he had already identified with Canglong City, it was hard for him to accept that so many of his fellow humans were implicated because of him.
The Evil God Consciousness seemed a little confused by Gu Ran's question. After a pause, it said, "Kill? What do you mean by kill? Do you mean to put the bodies of those people in Canglong City into a state of death?"
"Isn't the death of the external body a very common thing? Do you think that kind of fragile and ugly body represents the essence of life?"
"No!"
Gu Ran rarely felt excitement in the "evil god's consciousness".
It said passionately:
"The essence of life is cognition! It is response!"
“Although their bodies are dead, their perception and response to the world remain!”
"The body is nothing but a burden, constantly wearing out over time, suffering, without the slightest value, but only a burden."
"They are not dead, they just walked out of the confinement of time!"
Gu Ran calmly said: "Humans are different from weirdos like you. Consciousness must be supported by the body. If the body dies, the consciousness will have no carrier, and the final result will be the death of the body.
"And after their bodies died, their consciousnesses were also merged with yours, right? After being merged with yours, how could they still have independent cognition and response? Aren't they already dead? How can they be called alive?"
Gu Ran was not at all confused by the "evil god's consciousness"'s sophistry.
Of course, from the perspective of the "evil god consciousness", it does not think that it is quibbling, and it may not even know what quibbling means.
However, it did feel Gu Ran's fierce hostility.
It seemed to be thinking, and after a brief silence, it said:
"Integrating into the 'big group' is not death. It is to make the 'big group' stronger and allow the 'big group' to continue better. Integrating into the 'big group' means becoming a part of the 'big group'. This is not death, but the evolution of life!
“Only when life continues to evolve can we understand the essence of life and the essence of evolution. A single life is weak and meaningless!
"So, merging with me means integrating into the 'big group'. Only then can their weak and worthless individual lives play a greater role, just like me returning to the 'big group' today. The 'big group' continues to grow stronger, the 'big group' continues to merge, and eventually the 'big group' will reach the most perfect life form!"
Gu Ran already had a general understanding of the "evil god consciousness", or the entire "deep water consciousness"'s "thought" state.
They have completely different world views and values from humans, so they often cannot understand humans, just as humans cannot understand them.
Communicating with them is like talking to a deaf person; they simply don't have the same empathy as humans.
However, they were able to understand each other through the conversation, so Gu Ran finally said, "Then what does my relationship with you have
"Why do you say we are the same kind, and yet you say we are enemies?"
This is what confuses Gu Ran.
The "evil god consciousness" and "deep water" and "large group consciousness" had completely opposite attitudes towards him and came to opposite conclusions.
So which side is right
"We are indeed not the same kind, because we are not human, and you are not us, but you can become a part of us, and we can also become you!"
"You are the one who constantly destroys the rules of the world... Your existence makes the world chaotic and destroyed. Our mission is to eliminate you, the one who makes the world restless!"
The words of the "evil god's consciousness" made Gu Ran's heart sink slightly.
At this moment, "Deep Water" and "Mass Consciousness" seemed to have finally figured it out.
"Our mission is... to integrate and replace those who destroy the rules of the world!"
"Let him die completely, or let him become part of us!"
Strong emotions came from the "deep water" and "large group consciousness".
Gu Ran's expression changed slightly.
He knew that today would not end peacefully.
"Deep Water" and "Mass Consciousness" seemed to be his enemies indeed. He just hadn't "remembered" them before because it was too long ago.
But now that it has "remembered" itself, no one knows what means it will use to deal with him.
This is the eye of the sea, where the “deep water” is most concentrated.
This is the home ground of "deep water" and "mass consciousness", and he is just an alien land creature.
Gu Ran became extremely alert. After taking the "Evil God's Ark Core" that he had subdued, he immediately began to float up.
Today's trip was really beyond his expectations. The information he obtained was all "explosive news" that he didn't know before, enough for him to think about for a long time.
However, the premise for him to think for a long time is that he can leave the sea eye "alive" today.
The "deep water" around seemed to be getting tighter and tighter, like an extremely solid steel wall.
But at this moment, Gu Ran no longer had the strong sense of oppression he had when he came down. He only had a cognitive feeling of the "deep water" around him, and felt that it was getting tighter and tighter.
There was no real physical feeling, it was just the same as usual, without any sense of oppression.
Suddenly, Gu Ran felt as if there was an extremely huge prehistoric beast opening its huge mouth under him.
Creepy!
However, that strong feeling of creepiness was only fleeting and did not last long.
But this is also the first time for Gu Ran.
Ever since he awakened his spatial ability, he no longer had any sense of crisis.
Because his strength is enough for him to deal with all crises that arise.
Now, he felt this strong sense of crisis again after a long time.
"Strange... You do have the same aura as us..."
"... But you are indeed the one who breaks the rules of the world..."
"... ... Anyway... ... Become a part of us... ... This may be the best outcome for both of us..."
The next moment, Gu Ran felt an extremely terrifying consciousness coming towards him rapidly from behind along the "deep water".
Gu Ran had already increased his ascending speed to the limit he could reach, but he was still unable to defeat the terrifying consciousness behind him.
"... we merge..."
"... we become one..."
"... ... the scars of the world will be healed..."
"... the world will return to normal..."
"...our mission will be accomplished..."
Gu Ran, who was originally floating up, suddenly stiffened and slowly sank.
... ...
Outside the light screen.
Everyone was shocked when they saw Gu Ran communicating with the "evil god consciousness", "deep water" and "large group consciousness".
Their first reaction was, "What?! Gu Ran is not a human, but made of water?!"
Fortunately, Gu Ran seemed to be ruled out of this possibility later.
However, the rules and mission of the world made them confused.
They all felt that this seemed to be a big secret of the world, and they really wanted to communicate more with those on the light screen.
