Everyone left, but Sandora and I stayed in the room. Abyss Schilling glanced at us curiously and couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything else? I think I'm done explaining the situation. "
"Err, it's not about the bridge." I glanced at Sandora and felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, but there were some things that had to be said. "It's about you. I told my family about our … theoretically, father-daughter relationship. Sandora is quite curious about it, and she wants to come and see."
As expected, Abyss Schilling instantly frowned. "That's strange. Is this question really that important? Why do you care so much about it? "
"I told you there's something wrong with this guy's worldview." I touched Sandora's arm. "You saw her attitude."
"You don't think this is important at all?" Sandora was also quite surprised. Although Her Majesty the Queen was knowledgeable, Abyss Schilling's unusual worldview was not seen anywhere else. "Even if you don't look at it from a 'practical' point of view, your power and even a part of your soul were molded by Ah Jun, and you also admit that he is your logical father. But do you think this matter has no other meaning other than the inheritance relationship?"
Abyss Schilling sat back in his seat. "Oh, from the perspective of the relationship between the creator and the created, this is indeed significant. Because without a father, there wouldn't be an individual 'Abyss Schilling'. That's why I pay special attention to my father. But other than that, I don't understand what other 'meaning' there is. The process of creation and inheritance has ended. You should know how a program works. Every process only has meaning because it's invoked. But after the process ends, the program should be released to save system resources."
"… As expected of your thought process." The corner of Sandora's mouth twitched. "Previously, when Ah Jun relayed your words to me, I thought it was unbelievable. Aha, actually nothing much. Ah ha, actually, it's nothing much. I just heard from Ah Jun that he suddenly had a daughter. I was really curious and wanted to confirm it in front of you. I thought I had a lot of questions to ask, but now … I feel like I can't communicate with you anymore. Talking to you is really tiring. "
"Yeah, it's tiring to talk to you too." Abyss Schilling nodded very sincerely. Then, she looked at me and pondered for a moment. "But I have to admit that after talking to my father a few days ago, I did sort out my thought process and checked if there were any changes in my behavior after the concept of 'father' appeared. Later, I realized that I was indeed different from a simple program … The difference isn't obvious, but I pay more attention to 'father' and respond faster. Also, I don't know if it's because father's power still pervades the network, but I'm more likely to believe or accept what he says if there are no other influences. Of course, this could also be the effect of the disturbance from Void creatures. I haven't come to a conclusion yet, so I have to continue my research. Based on the few simulations I've done so far, if there are no interference factors, father and the others tell me some equivalent but different information, I will believe what father says first, even if there is no evidence … This is an abnormal phenomenon and could be harmful, but I still can't find the reason, which is why I'm a little troubled. "
Abyss Schilling's way of speaking was still so strange, with an overly calm and indifferent feeling. Even Sandora couldn't help but frown. "Why does it feel like you're talking about someone else? This is your own thought process."
"I can run virtual machines and sandbox environments in my own spiritual world, so I'm used to analyzing myself from a bystander's perspective. Believe me, this is a good method." Abyss Schilling explained to Sandora in a methodical manner. "Look, he doesn't seem to have any objections."
She raised her hand and pointed in my direction. I could only awkwardly wave my hand. "That, I haven't realized it yet …"
However, I understood what Abyss Schilling was saying. That was to say, this guy logically believed that the "father-daughter relationship" was meaningless, but in fact, she was still affected by it?
She had been trying to use her own "scientific method" to analyze what was going on. She even planned to calculate the information disturbance force of the Void creatures, but I felt that it was a waste of effort. She was destined to continue to be confused — if she didn't intend to change her worldview, she would probably be confused for the rest of her life.
At the same time, I also understood the extent of my influence on her: it was not on a large scale, and it had almost no practical effect. She would only lean towards her father when it did not affect the overall situation, and "other conditions were zero". The most direct example was the war in the past few years: during the continuous war between the Abyss and the New Empire, she had completely eliminated the influence of the "father-daughter relationship" on her. During those years, she was not soft-hearted at all in the war. Now that the war had ended and all the repressive conditions had been removed, she directly came to me and admitted this earth-shattering relationship. What kind of worldview was this?
This was a worldview that accurately calculated "feelings" to more than two hundred decimal places!
I felt that I would never be able to properly communicate with this guy, who was technically my child, but whose worldview was not on the same line. You see, even someone as knowledgeable as Sandora found it difficult to talk to Abyss Schilling.
"That's it then." Sandora and Abyss Schilling chatted for a while more. After realizing that it was difficult to understand each other, she decisively gave up. "You have your own way of thinking, and it seems that you are not dangerous at the moment. I have no reason to control you. And if you are willing to continue to be a group of 'normal' people with your Abyss apostles, the New Empire has no reason to continue to oppose you. I hope that we can get along well in the future. "
"You don't have to worry about this. Most of the people in the Abyss are actually not crazy. Only the Lacerators are completely crazy. We are not crazy." Abyss Schilling laughed. "What happened before … was only because I had no other choice. Now that Father of the Star Region has given me a declaration, and Father's power is growing day by day, I will weigh the pros and cons and no longer harm the world of Order. And to be honest … it is also a good thing that Father has become strong enough. This way, I don't have to continue doing these arduous and unrewarding things, and I can ask my own father for help. "
I did not react for a moment. After a few seconds, I spread my hands, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Why do you sound so righteous … Didn't you say that our inheritance relationship is not that important?"
"It is not important. But as a father, you have to help your daughter solve her difficulties, and as a daughter, I will listen to your instructions and give my sincerity when the conditions permit. This is determined by our 'attributes', and it is our respective tasks. If you have time, I can explain this pure logical way of thinking to you. It is actually very effective … Hey, why are you guys leaving …"
I did not dare to finish listening. I immediately dragged Sandora and disappeared without a trace. In the end, the two of us teleported to the streets of the Shadow City and looked at each other. Sandora smiled dryly. "Erm … Hehe, I feel that if I continue listening, my worldview will be ruined."
To be able to make a "Soul Snatcher", who specialized in destroying people's worldview, say such words, Abyss Schilling must be a powerful person in every sense.
"By the way, you saw it with your own eyes. Do you have any thoughts on this matter?" I pulled Sandora along as we strolled along the streets of the Shadow City. As I looked at the familiar city scenery around me, I asked casually.
Sandora was silent for a few seconds. In the end, her tone was still uncertain. "There are many thoughts, but they are all irrelevant. After all, Abyss Schilling is a very sensitive existence. Her strange life form and way of thinking are … hard to understand. Although I have confirmed that she is harmless now, I still feel that I can't understand her. "
"I can understand a little." I exhaled. "I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing. I can actually get along well with that person who has an abnormal worldview."
"Is this considered a father's talent?" Sandora glanced at me with a mischievous smile.
"Don't say that. I still don't know how to accept this fact. I have seen a girl falling from the sky before, but this is the first time I have seen such a 'girl'." I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "If that is the case … I am afraid that Xiaoxue's title as the King of Naughty Children will have to give up. Can you find a person more dangerous than Abyss Schilling in the entire void?"
"Her? She is not just a naughty child. "Sandora twitched the corner of her mouth." Also, I am thinking … How should Schilling be counted? She and Abyss Schilling share the same origin, but it is obvious that her birth has nothing to do with you. Go through this relationship and see if you can straighten it out. "
I was shocked. Then, I squatted on the ground and scribbled on the formula for a long time. In the end, cold sweat dripped down my forehead. "Sandora, let's not discuss this. If we continue to study it, it will rise to the level of ethics …"
As soon as I finished speaking, Lin Xue's voice came from beside me, adding to the chaos. "Abyss Schilling and Schilling should be considered half-sisters. But there is no way to count them. They don't have a mother, and Schilling doesn't even have a father. That is why they say that the royal family is the messiest. Normally, the messiest noble circles would only have triangular or quadrilateral relationships. Even if it was so messy, it would still be a whole number. Only our family can take a decimal point …"
I almost couldn't breathe. I looked up and saw Lin Xue standing in front of me. She was wearing a youthful light yellow dress and a huge sunhat. Behind her was a nine-tailed fox that was about the same size as Alto. Was this considered taking a pet out for a walk?
"Why do I see you everywhere?" I muttered as I stood up. Then, I raised my hand to greet the Fox Goddess. She immediately lowered her head and rubbed the tip of her nose against my face. But considering her current original form, this rubbing of her nose made me feel as if I had been hit by a giant lead ball. She really had both volume and kinetic energy. "Why did the fox turn into her original form? Doesn't she like to be in her human form when she goes out? "
"This idiot went to fight with Cerberus again and accidentally bit her. After drinking half a mouthful of holy beast blood, she became like this. Cerberus is a divine creature created by Jingle. She is a Great Monster that cultivated on her own. It seems that there is a conflict between the two," Lin Xue said as she lifted her leg and kicked the Fox Goddess's paw. The latter immediately groaned in grievance. "I brought her out to exercise a little to quickly expel the divine power from her body. Do you think there is a hole in this fox's brain? How many times has it been! "
Cerberus was a three-headed dog created by Jingle after she watched a television show. She was now the watchdog of the Avalon Temple District. Everyone should still remember the relevant information. Anyway, I don't know how the unlucky big dog started a feud with the Fox Goddess. Or perhaps it was simply the latter looking for trouble. Anyway, the two of them have fought countless times. I have tried to control them, but the results were minimal. The Fox Goddess seemed to have regarded this as her daily activity when she was bored. Every time she was scolded, she would appear to be in pain, as if she wanted to repent. But within three days, she would definitely run over and get beaten up by the big dog again. The cycle would repeat endlessly … Now, the family was too lazy to care.
I went forward and stroked the Fox Goddess's long fur. Judging from the time, she should be lying down and basking in the sun. So, I could clearly see the deep boredom and sleepiness in her eyes. Obviously, this girl had been forcefully dragged out of the house by Lin Xue. On the other side, Lin Xue squinted her eyes and counted with her fingers. "Oh, you seem to be in a bad mood. Did you get some bad news?"
"It really isn't good. Xi Ling from the Abyss said that there might be some twists and turns in the construction of the bridge." As I spoke, I walked forward. "Let's find a place to rest and slowly talk. Fox is about to fall asleep standing."
We were in the commercial district, so we could find a place to rest everywhere. Soon, we found a quiet cafe. Judging from the sign on the door, it should be opened by the magical Fairy people. But when we entered the door, we encountered a problem. The Fox Goddess was too big, so we couldn't get in, and there was a rule that no pets were allowed in the cafe.
I looked left and right and finally found a place to put this huge fox. There was a small parking lot next to it. All kinds of vehicles that looked like cars and not like cars were parked in two rows. With Lord Fox Immortal's current body size, it could occupy a parking space …
"Go there and lie down. It's time for you to bask in the sun." I pointed to the parking lot. The Fox Goddess suddenly roared happily and ran to the parking lot. She was very self-aware. At the entrance of the parking lot, she pressed the button with her nose to get a temporary parking card … She could really locate herself!
The three of us watched the strange behavior of the fox. She first ran to the side of two regular cars, then frowned and shook her head before leaving. She seemed to think that the cars were not high-class enough. Then she ran to the middle of two low-altitude flying cars and carefully bypassed them. She was afraid that she could not afford to pay for the damage. Finally, she found a place in an open space facing the sun. She happily jumped in and lay on the ground. Suddenly, the whole parking lot was filled with the cheerful sound of the alarm. The waiter who was watching the parking lot ran out to take a look. When he saw that it was a big monster causing trouble, he immediately felt unwell.
But the waiter couldn't do anything because the fox had a parking card in her mouth. Moreover, her size didn't exceed the parking space, so he couldn't chase her away. This was also a unique rule of the Shadow City. This place was too mixed. People from different worlds brought all kinds of strange cultures and strange vehicles. The areas around the servant army encampments were still a bit uniform, but the streets in the civilian area were like a museum exhibition. This kind of parking lot had to be open to all kinds of vehicles, including those that claimed to be vehicles. Not to mention the other things, there was a row of metal racks on the west side of the parking lot. Those were for mages to hang flying carpets. The hooks behind the racks were for witches to hang brooms …
The people in the city's administrative center really worked hard.
After confirming that the stupid fox could sleep under the sun for half a day and wouldn't wake up to cause trouble, we went to a cafe and asked for a private room. Then, Sandora told Lin Xue about the troublesome situation of the startup terminal and the Tranquility Core.
In all fairness, Lin Xue was definitely not an expert in this field. Her level of expertise in this field was basically the same as mine. In other words, she was the same as the fox dog that was sunbathing outside. In other words, she didn't know anything. But Lin Xue had an advantage that others didn't have. That was, even if she didn't understand something, she could still give advice to an expert. Her prophecy ability allowed her to skip over the process and directly look at the results. She couldn't be envious or jealous, she was just that unreasonable.
Otherwise, people would say that prophets were hated by others.
After listening to the situation, Lin Xue sunk into silence. She slightly closed her eyes to look like she was pretending to sleep, but in fact, she was looking for a direction for the future. Sandora and I didn't disturb her. We just waited silently with anticipation.
After a few minutes, Lin Xue opened her eyes with a reassuring smile on her face. "Don't rush. What do you want to eat first?"
However, Sandora and I didn't have any reaction. Lin Xue was surprised. "Hey, why aren't you complaining? Especially you blockhead. Don't you usually come up and give me a karate chop in this kind of situation? "
"I've been with you for five years. I know what you're going to say the moment you open your mouth." I glanced at her. "Let's get down to business."
"Tsk, if you don't cooperate, we won't have a tacit understanding." Lin Xue curled her lips. Then, she raised her finger and pointed outside the window. It seemed to be the location of the research institute. "The solution is in the research institute. Although I don't understand why it's right under our noses, you better tell Tawil not to waste her energy on the startup terminal. Let her focus on her warehouse."
Sandora and I looked at each other. "Warehouse? You mean the key to fixing the startup terminal … is in a warehouse in the research institute? "
"What's wrong with that?" Lin Xue said meaningfully. "Sometimes, problems that seem unsolvable are just because we pay too much attention to the problem itself. If those experts continue to put all their energy into 'fixing the startup terminal', then they will never succeed. The startup terminal is something beyond our current understanding. Even those guys on the other side of the ocean don't know the principle behind it. Do you think that the experts on our side will be able to figure out how to fix it before the cataclysm arrives?"
Sandora nodded thoughtfully.
"The world is wonderful when you leave the bottleneck." Lin Xue stood up with a smile. "Speaking of which, that fox seems to be in trouble …"
I was speechless. "… She's going to be in trouble in such a short time?!"
