"Yes." Destiny followed Juege's words, "Twenty-Three... has gone far beyond the boundary; Woody is also very aware of her movements, but... because Twenty-Three has not yet expressed to our universe itself. There is no hostility, so Woody has not taken any action for the time being." She paused, "But according to the current trend, it is only a matter of time before twenty-three makes the demon gods of this universe feel threatened... Once that happens In the circumstances, she, and I, have no doubt...will meet inevitable destruction."
"And you think... I have the ability to help you and prevent that from happening?" Feng Bujue asked.
"I don't think so that you have that ability." Destiny replied.
"Huh?" Brother Jue was taken aback when he heard the words, and then said, "Then why are you looking for me?"
"The sad thing is..." Fate continued, "On this issue, I can only turn to you... Even if you can rewrite the "future" and those "inevitable" possibilities are very slim, but in countless cases where the success rate is infinitely close to zero In the plan, you are still the most promising one."
"Heh... hehe..." Feng Bujue laughed a few times, and responded with empty eyes, "That's really hard for you..."
"You feel unhappy." Fate continued, "I can understand."
"Unhappy?" Brother Jue repeated those two words and smiled, "Hehe... no, how did you know that I am unhappy?"
"I can directly perceive your mood swings through the neural connection." The next second, Fate continued without thinking, "Also, based on my observations and analysis of you, your next response is likely to be... Change the attitude of talking with me, seize the initiative in the conversation, and put pressure on me with very impolite and logically aggressive language and behavior." She paused for half a second, "For example...you There are 83% chances that they will put on a very embarrassed expression and say to me lines like 'asking for help should have the attitude of asking for help, in short, you show your breasts first and we can talk' or something like that."
"Uh..." At this moment, Feng Bujue's smile was suppressed.
He really wanted to quibble against this passage of fate, but he soon realized that most of his justifications were useless and would be analyzed by the other party.
Therefore, after a very brief ideological struggle, Feng Bujue decided to say a few words less and not to do that self-defeating thing.
"Isn't it a bad feeling to be 'seen through' by someone, and to be 'said in advance' of what was seen through?" After a few seconds of silence, Destiny spoke again.
"Ah... Generally speaking, I'm more used to bringing this kind of feeling to others." Feng Bujue looked at the floor with an aggrieved look.
"Then do you understand why I did this?" Fate said again.
"Huh?" Feng Bujue's expression changed when she asked her this question, and some kind of inspiration flashed through his mind like lightning, "Are you... are you 'demonstrating' something to me?"
"Yes." Fate continued, "First 'demonstrate' once, so that I can 'explain' more easily."
"Then you explain it." Brother Jue raised his eyebrows and said.
"Using the concepts commonly used by you humans..." Fate said, "What I did just now was to use 'language' to change the 'future'."
"But the premise is that you can accurately foresee the 'future'." Feng Bujue said.
"No, I can't," said Destiny. "No one... or other being can do such a thing, at least not in existence that I know of."
"Where's the black hole queen?" Feng Bujue immediately thought of a possible example.
"Of course she can't." Fate replied, "It's just that some of her performances have given creatures in your dimension the illusion that 'she can manipulate time and space'."
As Fate said, she raised her hand, and at that second, a sphere made of transparent liquid appeared out of thin air on her palm.
"For example... this water polo is the universe where the Queen of the Black Hole is." Destiny turned his head slightly, looked at the ball of suspended liquid and said, "At this moment, every drop of water that makes up this water polo is actually in constant motion. But because the overall shape of the water polo doesn't change, you can't see the water moving with the naked eye."
"This 'flow'... Or, the 'change' that cannot be detected by the senses of our three-dimensional creatures is like 'time'?" Feng Bujue understood very quickly, and immediately continued.
Fate nodded, and continued: "And the outline of this water polo represents 'space'... Of course, 'space' is also changing..." Speaking of which, she made the volume of the water polo a little larger in proportion , "But I don't need to make the example in front of me bigger than this room, or so small that you can't see it, as long as you can understand it..."
"En." Feng Bujue responded, signaling the other party to continue talking.
"The queen of the black hole is like..." A second later, a strange color suddenly appeared in the water polo in Fate's hand, "... It's like a drop of oil in the water polo." Along with her explanation, the drop of oil also Quickly cruising in the water polo, "She is in this water, but...insoluble in this water."
"So... she is both in time and space, but not in time and space..." Feng Bujue murmured.
"That's right." Fate said, "For her, any point in this water polo is a place she can reach at will; at any point, there can be the 'same' black hole queen." While speaking, that The drop of oil began to move back and forth quickly in the water polo, and gradually, the originally transparent sphere became more and more cloudy, and the "flow" track of the water inside the sphere became more and more obvious, "but... she can't go to it wantonly." Change or interfere with the established facts that occur at any point in time and space, because that may disturb the order of the entire universe."
When these words came out, the outline of the sphere had become very unstable, and the water flow in it also seemed particularly intense.
Five or six seconds later, there was only the sound of "哗啦啦..."
The water polo suddenly disintegrated into a puddle of ordinary water, falling vertically to the ground, and also wet the palm of fate.
"Then..." Destiny put down his hand and continued, "Let's talk about... the so-called 'future'."
"According to your theory..." Feng Bujue said while thinking, "the future, the past, the present...isn't there the same difference?"
"There is no difference at all." Destiny replied, "But I can't convey and illustrate this theory with your human language or concepts." She shook her head helplessly, "Because you are three-dimensional creatures, your brain structure and Perception limits your understanding of time to be based on 'linearity', so you use 'memory' as the dividing unit to create the typical linear concept of 'past, present and future', even if you can conceive He made a hypothesis about the development of the "tree shape" in the future, as well as theories of parallel universes, etc., but after all, he was unable to raise his perception and cognition of time and space to the level of four-dimensional creatures...
If you take the water polo just now as an example...you are like being confined in one of the hair-like water streams, you must follow its trajectory, and you will never be able to detect or enter the water stream beyond this line. "
"In other words... you are now 'reducing the dimensionality' of your thinking, and then talking to me about the concept of 'future' that you have denied." Feng Bujue continued.
"Yes." Fate replied, "Fortunately, your comprehension ability is very good, so far our communication has been smooth." She paused for a second, and added, "By the way... I said that you humans are 'three-dimensional creatures ', is actually a relatively broad and not so precise **. In my opinion... human beings are very special, you can say that they are 3.2... or 3.3-dimensional creatures. But I will not elaborate on that topic with you , After all, your professional knowledge of brain structure is still too little, and you are not able to discuss related issues with me too deeply."
"OKOK..." Feng Bujue had suffered enough frustration today, he didn't even feel unhappy anymore, "Go on and talk about how to change the future."
"I think you have already understood." No matter how Brother Jue changed the subject, Destiny answered without any delay, "'Future' is actually something like 'flowing water', whether it is a 'straight line' or a 'tree'." Even I can't predict the future 'accurately', but... my prediction success rate is still quite high. And based on this success rate, the There is the possibility of 'interfering' and 'changing' the future."
"Oh..." Feng Bujue tilted his head and said, "It means... tangible things correct their shape, and invisible things guide their momentum."
"The sentence you are saying now, and the act of saying this sentence in a generalized way, is just one of the shining points of you humans, and it is also one of the most fascinating characteristics of your race." Destiny was expressionless Said this sentence of praise, which made Brother Jue completely unable to understand the feeling of being praised.
After a pause of two seconds, Fate continued: "Even if I live in a dimension above yours, I can't predict that you will organize such a language.
"Humans are unwilling to be limited by the cognitive limits of three-dimensional creatures, so in the wrong, clumsy, and absurd explorations... in the constant mistakes...created many strange derivatives; such as literature, music, art, etc. etc., are called the carrier or form of expression of 'art'.
"Humans also have 'emotions' that originate from biological instincts but transcend instincts and even logical boundaries.
"These things make you a 'heterogeneous' among the same-dimensional creatures. And the most important thing is... You also have one thing that makes gods and demons envious - almost unlimited 'right to choose'; you can't imagine , an existence with enough 'power', if it has this ability, what does it mean to the multiverse... "
Speaking of this, Fate suddenly took a few steps forward, came to a place just a fist away from Brother Jue, looked into the latter's eyes and said: "What I fancy is your 'free will'; And you... Feng Bujue, as an individual, your ability to interfere with the "future" is obviously much stronger than most of your kind. This has something to do with your background and the ability of "truth and absurdity" Associated… "
puff-
The next second, an unexpected situation happened again, just like when Twenty-Three attacked Feng Bujue, fate unexpectedly reached out... and directly pierced Brother Jue's chest with his hand.
"Come again?" In a sense, Brother Jue has already been tricked twice.
Of course, he just complained in his heart about the phrase "come again", because his mouth is speechless right now.
"Twenty-three erased your character data, and left a set of restriction programs in your body; with this set of programs, when you join any script world, you will be automatically activated by a set of anti-cheat mechanisms during the 'transfer' process. Exclude and refuse to join." When Fate said this, a bright white stream of data had invaded Jue Ge's body from her fingertips, and flowed throughout the latter's body like glowing blood, "I can Help you clean up that group of restricted programs, but I can't retrieve your character data, because the abilities of the players are involved in the gambling game of the gods and demons, so the backup of this part of the data is managed by the 'Dream Company'; I Suggestion... When you return to the real world, go through the complaint process to resolve this matter, or go to Woody directly."
At this point, Feng Bujue's pupils were filled with white light, and his body trembled violently.
"I'm currently writing a protection program into your body to prevent you from encountering similar situations in the future." Fate still said in a calm tone, "The process may be a bit painful, please be patient."
In fact, she can't say or not to say the last half of the sentence, because Brother Jue can't do anything except be patient...
After a few more seconds, the white light slowly dimmed.
At this time, Fate's expression actually changed slightly...
"Remember, Feng Bujue..." Her tone also carried a trace of inexplicable and unexplainable emotion, "I, Twenty-Three, and those you care about, don't care about... all the creatures in the horror paradise; Our fate, from now on, has been tied to you.
"This is my only gamble as a 'non-AI creature'... I abandoned probability and calculation, and bet everything on your 'infinite possibility'.
"Hope I'm right, and hopefully...in the 'future', we'll see each other again."
...
嗞嗞嗞—
In the cold winter, early in the morning.
In Feng Bujue's home, the lights in the room flickered strangely, and there were bursts of electrical noise.
In the living room, on the cabin of the luxurious game cabin, all the lighting components that can be illuminated emit abnormal light as if overloaded.
Snapped-
When those lights reached the limit, there was another sound suddenly.
Immediately afterwards, the whole room went dark, as if the power had been tripped and cut off.
There was dead silence for about a minute.
Then, a powerful arm opened the hatch with the mechanical parts inside the game cabin.
"Huh..." After the hatch was opened, Feng Bujue stood up and sat up from the cabin, exhaling a breath of white air.
In the darkness, his pupils still glowed with white light... (.)
