[Endless Killing: My fireball has a bug! – Chapter 538 The mission of living beings!]
Independent, divine?
Lin Chuan pondered these words in his mind for a while, then looked towards the monument and asked with a frown:
“So, what exactly is divinity?”
The Heavenly Monument would naturally not answer.
But the cool voice seemed to “pet” Lin Chuan.
As if it was a question that needed an answer, it echoed in his mind again:
“There is no word in this world that can explain divinity.”
“But if I must use human vocabulary to describe it…”
“I remember humans have a word called——”
“Although I cannot reach it, my heart longs for it.”
Even though I can’t get there, my heart still longs for it.
This description is actually quite ambiguous.
What exactly are you longing for?
But it points out a key point——
Can’t reach.
In other words…
Lin Chuan just thought of this point.
The cold voice seemed to guess what he was thinking, and slowly said: “You are right…”
“It is impossible for a human to possess divinity.”
“The so-called divinity you understand now can perhaps be called pseudo-divinity.”
“All divinity that is dependent on the existence of living beings is false divinity.”
This……
In other words, the divinity that exists independently is the true divinity?
Lin Chuan just thought of it.
The chilly voice sounded again:
“Yes, you understand it correctly.”
Obviously, this chilly voice can not only break through the extraordinary effect of Rashomon.
I can even see through everything he is thinking!
Logically speaking, for someone as absolutely selfish as Lin Chuan, he should be extremely disgusted when everything about him is seen through and he has no privacy at all.
But I don’t know why.
This divinity called “Qi” did not make him feel any disgust.
On the contrary, he inexplicably felt that this thing was trustworthy!
Is it because this monument chose him to be the one?
Or is this the nature of divinity in the world?
Like a saint, making people unconsciously let down their guard?
Lin Chuan couldn’t understand it either.
However, it is precisely because of that sense of trust.
When he faces this “Qi”, he does not need to have any hypocritical or complicated thoughts.
You can be completely honest.
Frank Lin Chuan then asked a question that he was most concerned about:
“Can the Heavenly Monument recognize me in my current state?”
“What benefits can I get after recognition?”
The cool voice, like an extremely tolerant elder, answered his questions one by one:
“The state of nothingness cannot be recognized. However, the Heavenly Stele can see through all nothingness.”
Lin Chuan frowned: “In other words, you can still recognize it?”
“Yes, you can recognize it. But the moment you recognize it, you will regain your physical form. There will be a huge catastrophe, and the entire Professional Alliance will be shaken.”
“…”
Mad is here again!
The entire professional league was shaken…
Can’t you be a little more low-key?
A cold voice: “No.”
“…”
Let it be strange if it is strange, let it be a shock if it is a shock.
Lin Chuan was more concerned about the following question: “I will regain my physical form the moment the Heavenly Monument recognizes me. So after recognizing me, can I still transform into the Rashomon effect?”
The cold voice answered patiently and calmly: “Sure.”
Later, he even added: “As long as you master the energy of emptiness and reality, you can even transform yourself into a state of pure emptiness that breaks the rules without the help of props.”
Master the energy of reality and illusion…
“Can the Heavenly Monument allow me to master the energy of reality and illusion? Or in other words, what exactly can the Heavenly Monument bring me?” Lin Chuan asked impatiently.
This time, the cold voice did not tell him what he could gain.
Instead, he said solemnly: “After the Heavenly Monument recognizes you, you will become the representative of all living beings.”
“The first thing you should consider is not what you can get, but what you have to bear and what you have to pay.”
To bear? To pay?
What the hell, why does he act like a savior?
Lin Chuan frowned.
The cold voice continued, “Since ancient times, there has never been a strong person who can only enjoy power without taking responsibility.”
“The same is true for great careers as creatures.”
“You should also be able to think of -“
“If the world is destroyed and there are no more living beings, how can your profession of ‘living beings’ remain unscathed?”
“So, what you mean is -” Lin Chuan frowned as he thought, “Only after the Heavenly Monument recognized me, did I have a truly complete ‘living being’ career.”
“But as a price, I have to protect all living beings?”
After saying this, Lin Chuan himself felt that it was wrong.
Is it him who protects all living beings like a holy father?
Are you kidding me?
What a cold-blooded and selfish person he is!
Lin Chuan never denied his selfishness and cold-bloodedness.
I don’t even think there’s anything wrong with it.
After all, that’s the way it is, that’s why he is like that.
But now suddenly tell him…
The profession of “living things” carries the mission of protecting all living things?
What the hell? Isn’t this nonsense?
There’s something a little weird about Lin Chuan.
But he is here.
The cool Qi still instantly understood what he was thinking.
That desolate voice sighed softly.
He said slowly: “In my eyes, you are not cold-blooded, nor selfish.”
“Or, I can be more cold-blooded and selfish than you.”
“Millions of years have passed, billions of lives have passed. In my eyes, they are nothing but a grain of sand.”
“I can treat butchers and saints, tyrants and Buddhists equally.”
“The Godhead is equal.”
“It is a will and a spirit that transcends the rich and the poor, transcends the differences in race, transcends the law of the jungle, and allows even the weakest creatures to pursue equally.”
“The power given to you by the Creature Career comes from all living things.”
“And the protection in your mission is not the kind of dynamic protection you understand.”
“It’s a passive protection.”
“Only one creature can truly achieve the ultimate goal of ‘even though one cannot reach the place one longs for’.”
“Only when a living being’s self-awareness desperately seeks your protection can it borrow your power.”
“Give me an example, as you know–“
“Ordinary people who experience heavenly punishment will surely die.”
“But very few people can survive.”
“From your perspective, it’s not that you didn’t protect those who were ‘bound to die.'”
“But they did not seek your protection.”
“Do you understand me?”
Lin Chuan lowered his eyes in thought.
The example given by Qi was certainly not unfamiliar to Lin Chuan.
Both Shadow and he can be considered as people who have survived the heavenly punishment.
But before, he always thought about this matter from his own perspective.
However, in the example of Qi, one stands at a detached God’s perspective.
That is to say.
The complete career of a “living being” requires him to undertake the mission of passively “protecting” those “yearning for it”.
Oh no, not just people, but more broadly, living beings.
Any living being is completing an impossible challenge.
When it yearns extremely, it captures that special existence that transcends the rules.
Then, we will borrow the power of the “living creature” professionals.
Then——
“In other words, I don’t have to protect anyone personally, but when someone goes beyond the rules and seeks my protection, he will automatically borrow my power?”
The cold voice replied, “Yes.”
Lin Chuan asked again: “So what impact will this borrowing have on me?”
