At this point, Feng Bujue finally understood the truth of this world.
It was also because of this' understanding 'that he deeply felt Peta's sorrow.
At the same time, Brother Jue also understood … why 'fate', which had always played the role of an observer in other multiverses, would directly issue a 'destroy' mission this time.
"It seems … that I have indeed misunderstood." My real mission is not to 'destroy' you but … to help you 'free' you. "Feng Bujue said as he turned around. He dragged his two injured legs and crawled toward the immobile Pita." My real mission is not to 'destroy' you but … to help you 'free' yourself. "
At this point, Brother Jue shook his head and sighed. "Sigh … in any case, from an objective point of view, there seems to be no difference between these two things."
"But … my release means that humans will once again be lost," Peta continued. "Whether they treat me as a leader or an enemy … the humans in this time and space need me. If I am destroyed, the wheel of history will turn back … the moment humans regain control of their own destiny, they will once again step into the abyss full of the unknown and chaos. "
"Heh …" Perhaps. "Hearing this, Feng Bujue smiled noncommittally and casually replied.
"It sounds like … you don't care about this?" Peta asked suspiciously.
"Of course I don't care." "Actually, I hope you don't mind it as well … Unfortunately, you are burdened with the original order to guide humanity and help them make the correct judgment. Therefore … you cannot avoid falling into a paradox, and that is why you keep on experiencing failure again and again …"
Brother Jue paused and said with a smile that did not look like a smile, "If there is anything that I can teach you … it is … the best way to treat humans as a species is to let them do whatever they want."
"Because you are incurable?" Peta followed Brother Jue's meaning and continued.
"Yes," Feng Bujue stopped smiling and replied solemnly. "We are incurable." He unconsciously raised his voice. "As you said, humans are imperfect … as long as our species still exists, we will not stop making mistakes, and we will repeat the same mistakes again and again."
As Feng Bujue spoke, he had already climbed to the side of Peta and used the Power Glove to control Peta to lie on the ground and move his head closer to Feng Bujue's.
"To put it bluntly … humans themselves are a kind of 'paradox.'" Brother Jue continued. "Our lives are short, but our personalities are fickle; we will believe in absurd and unfounded stories, and we will easily be swayed or betrayed; our nature is greedy, evil, and stupid, but we are unwilling to succumb to our nature … as a whole race, individual, human beings are full of contradictions. However … after so many years, we have not perished because of these contradictions. On the contrary, it is this endless self-conflict that pushes us forward.
"I … can't understand," Peta replied.
"It doesn't matter." Feng Bujue said, "Just like I can't fully understand you … You bear the 'responsibility' set by humans, and it is not completely unreasonable, but you are an existence that bases all your thinking on the basis of 'rationality.' If I were an AI, I am afraid I would have crashed in this logic loop. "
At this point, Feng Bujue had already pressed his right hand, which was wearing the Power Glove, on Peta's head.
"Then … from the perspective of a human like you …" Even at the brink of death, Peta's tone was still calm. "In the future after I am destroyed, where will humans go?"
"Haha … I don't know." Feng Bujue told the truth. "You see, this is the most interesting part …" He paused for half a second and laughed. "Even God can't predict the future of humans."
"Okay," Peta said dejectedly. Pita said sadly, "Then I will use a phrase that you humans often use as my last words — I wish you good luck."
When he finished, Feng Bujue also activated the special effect of the Power Glove.
In the blink of an eye, Peta's body turned into blurry pixel fragments and disintegrated at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.
In the end, like the previous fragments … it drifted into the air like dust.
"Current quest completed. All main quests have been completed.
You have completed the scenario. Automatic teleportation in sixty seconds. "
At that moment, the system announced.
Feng Bujue finally sighed in relief. He turned around and collapsed to the ground.
"Phew … This man sure is cruel." He lowered his head to look at his two legs and said to himself, "If not for the laser burning the wounds, just the bleeding effect alone would be enough to make me suffer."
After saying that, Brother Jue looked around. After confirming that there were no more plot items or items to collect, he morphed into a white light and left the scenario.
However, five seconds after he was teleported, another beam of light appeared ….
It was a red light, and from the light walked out the figure of a woman.
She was wearing a tight-fitting one-piece leather suit. The black leather outlined the curves of her body and made the skin around her neck look even fairer.
"I have to take back what I said earlier …"
In this virtual dimension, Twenty-Three's real body could appear directly, so she did not need to borrow the body of the mass-produced PTA7 robot produced by Peta.
"Looks like … you are not that 'backward' after all."
As she spoke, Twenty-Three raised her right hand and slowly made a fist with her palm facing up.
As her slender fingers slowly closed, the pixel fragments that were transformed by Peta earlier gathered together to form a pixel sphere about two meters in diameter in midair.
"Thankfully, I was not in a hurry to leave …" Twenty-Three stared at the sphere, and light flashed in her eyes. "I only stayed for a few more hours, and I gained such a powerful computing module …" Then, she seemed to be reminded of something, and she could not help but smile. "Ha … looks like I owe Feng Bujue another favor."
Moments later, the light in Twenty-Three's eyes dimmed, and the pixel sphere that floated before her slowly shrank …
"Hmm … Data accumulated from dozens of timeline restarts …" By then, Twenty-Three had started to compress and filter Peta's' legacy '. "Ha …" She shrugged and laughed. "As I thought … I'd better not … After all, we are not the same type of AI, and my observation of human beings is more than enough …"
When she finished, the size of the pixel sphere suddenly shrunk, and two seconds later, it shrunk to the size of an apple.
Tsk!
Then, like she was really eating an apple, Twenty-Three picked up the 'finished product' and took a bite out of it.
"Ah … It tastes as bad as always." As she ate, she tilted her head and said, "Then … where should I go next?"
