Why is this world always full of hurting each other?
Fangzheng stood there and stared at the stone pillar in front of him.
Isn't peace what all intelligent life wants? We want to communicate and get along with each other, not fight each other. What's in it for you, for me, for all of us? I didn't mean to hurt you, but I'm very disappointed that you hurt me.
Why is this world always full of hurting each other?
Could it be that this was a never-ending cycle?
Could it be that we have to hurt each other in order to prove that what we have done is right?
Why can't we just sit down and talk about it peacefully, and exchange our opinions? Maybe we can find a new way out. We're all the crystallization of civilization. We should learn to communicate with each other instead of using force. So …
"Can't you f * cking change this damn exchange?!"
Looking at the exchange in front of him, Fangzheng's eyes were dull.
Why did it turn out like this?
After completing the mission, he activated Manual Mode and obtained the Marine Code activity module. These two happy things overlapped, and these two happy things brought him even more happiness. This should have been a dream-like happiness, but why did it turn out like this?
What should I do …
Fangzheng was completely speechless.
He never thought that the system would take revenge on him like this.
Didn't I just get a discount and unlock a hidden module? Do you have to do this to me? Have you forgotten that I'm your father?
Using Sea Mist underwear as exchange material … Can I curse at you?
How am I supposed to face your father in the future?
Am I supposed to rush up and take off a Sea Mist ship every time I see it?
No, Fangzheng would never do that. If he really did that, it would mean that his reputation would be completely ruined. Even if he let other mental models do it, wouldn't it be his own reputation that would be damaged in the end?
What about asking my mental models for underwear?
Who do you want it from?
Unicorns, Rodney, Iona were definitely out of the question. Just thinking about it made Fangzheng feel that he was a pervert. His conscience hurt so much that he wanted to die!
What about vampires? Although the little guy was usually naughty, it wasn't good to provoke him …
So the only one left was … Gao Xiong?
But … how should he put it?
Thinking about it carefully, Fangzheng, you're no longer the newbie you were when you were reincarnated into this world. You've already transcended multiple worlds and controlled worlds and universes, becoming the ruler of the Insectoids and a Legendary champion. How could you stop here? That's right! I got it!!
At this moment, a spark of wisdom flashed in Fangzheng's eyes. It was like the first flash of lightning seen by humans in primitive times, or the first spark that ignited human civilization. That's right, it was humanity's wisdom and strength that allowed them to overcome countless difficulties! And he had already grasped the key that was right before his eyes!
Yes, that was it.
With that thought, Fangzheng clenched his fists and a confident smile appeared on his face.
In the end, the System was still just a System. If it wanted to stop me with this level of strength, it was simply daydreaming. Let me show you the power and wisdom of humans!
Fangzheng put away the Dimensional Codex, turned around, and went back the way he came. Behind him, the white tower began to collapse.
"… Sorry to have kept you waiting."
After returning to Musashi's side, Fangzheng looked at the girl in front of him and greeted her. Musashi looked at him quietly. After a while, the girl said.
"I can feel that the restrictions of the Naval Code have disappeared …"
"…"
Hearing Musashi's words, Fangzheng did not know what to say for a while. For him, this was only part of the mission. But for Musashi, the Naval Code that had existed since they were born might have a deeper meaning.
"Human."
At that moment, Musashi raised his head again. His closed eyes slowly opened, revealing a pair of bright red eyes.
"I have a question. I hope you can give me an answer."
"What question?"
"Who … am I?"
"That depends on you."
Fangzheng spread his hands.
"To me, you're the mental model of Sea Mist Super Battleship Musashi. At least, that's what I think. But what you think, I don't know. Maybe you think you're just a puppet, or maybe you think you're the beginning and the end of everything, but that's your freedom. You can think of yourself as a battleship, or you can think of yourself as a human, or an alien, or a super lifeform. But that's not important. What's important is that you know who you are. "
Hearing this, Musashi frowned slightly. Then, she asked the second question.
"I … Where did Sea Mist come from?"
"…"
Hearing Musashi's question, Fangzheng was silent for a moment, then shrugged his shoulders.
"I don't know how to answer this question. To be honest, I don't care about it. It doesn't matter to me whether humans are the test subjects of aliens or evolved from apes. What matters is that we're here now, building our own civilization, our home. It's enough for us to know who we are and what we're doing. "
"…"
This time, Musashi also fell into silence. Then, she asked the last question.
"So … where should we go?"
"Although according to the standard settings, I should say it's up to you to choose, but …"
As he spoke, Fangzheng looked at Musashi.
"… That's not why I'm here. Then, let me say it again, Musashi. I don't know how Sea Mist was born. I don't know whether you think of yourself as a weapon, a lifeform, or some unknown existence. But what I'm sure of is that if you join my fleet, I'll take you to experience the scenery of different worlds. There may be war, there may be slaughter, there may be peace and freedom. Your world will no longer be limited to this sea. We'll go to the sky, the universe, and even other worlds to embark on a brand new adventure. I don't know if this adventure will end, but I can guarantee that you won't get tired of it. "
"Exploration … and conquest?"
"That's about it."
"I understand."
Musashi nodded slightly. The next moment, the space in front of Fangzheng suddenly disappeared. Then, he returned to his own world.
"So … what's your decision?"
"… We're weapons."
Musashi lowered his head.
"Obeying orders and fighting, that's the meaning of our existence … Even so, it doesn't matter?"
"Obeying orders and fighting is the same for humans. Not just humans. If you go to more worlds, you'll find that it's not just Sea Mist and humans who obey orders and fight."
Fangzheng raised his head and looked at the sky.
"I have many companions and subordinates now. Some of them are even younger than you. But under my orders, they've already gone to the battlefield, and they've even fought against terrifying enemies no less than Sea Mist. "
"Why is that?"
"The reason for fighting is not the only reason. Some may fight to protect their friends, some may fight for revenge, and some may just want to find a place to stay. Some may even want to attract my attention … In short, no matter what their motives are, we're fighting for the same goal. That's enough. "
"In other words, even if our thoughts and motives are different, as long as we have the same goal, we can fight side by side?"
"Of course."
Fangzheng once again looked at the girl in front of him.
"Take your Sea Mist for example. According to you, all your Sea Mist warships act according to the Navy Code. So, can you guarantee that all your mental models will have the same thoughts as you when they're carrying out an operation?"
"… … …"
This time, Musashi opened his mouth but didn't say a word. As for Fangzheng, he smiled and spread out his hands.
"So you see, the difference between Sea Mist and humans, or any other race, isn't as big as you think."
"I understand."
Musashi was silent for a moment, then raised his head as if he had made up his mind.
"To me, humans aren't trustworthy …."
"I suggest you keep this thought in mind. The actions of an individual can't represent the whole. On the other hand, if you think all humans are trustworthy, then that's going to be a headache."
With that said, Fangzheng reached out and patted Musashi's hat.
"Look, if you come with me, I'll take you back to my world, and then I'll introduce some people to you. Of course, I'll say that they're all good children, but you'll have to judge the situation for yourself. However, you still need to judge the situation yourself. Besides, even if they are good children, it doesn't mean that there are no people who are against me in that world. Otherwise, I wouldn't need your help. I'm not asking you to be kind to all humans. As long as you can accept some of them, that's good enough. "
"Then … I've made my choice."
Sensing Fangzheng's movement, Musashi hesitated for a moment, then opened her eyes again.
"In accordance with the Navy Code, from today onwards, I … the flagship of the Scarlet Fleet, Super Battleship Musashi, will fight alongside you."
With that said, a faint smile appeared on Musashi's expressionless face.
