Chapter 213: Mercy to Death
"Do you know who I am?" This was a woman in white like a ghost, with a sweet appearance, yet exuding an extremely strong sense of threat, her face full of smiles.
How could I not know you?
I hinted at the evil thoughts, residual thoughts of those dream residues, forming you, the King of Nightmare Disaster Beasts.
You are an evil creature I created in this world to suppress the development of this crazy civilization.
"Indeed, you are the descendant of that god from years ago, the child who fled to this planet."
The Hostage sat in the chair drinking tea, "I restricted the soul domain of everyone on this planet, except for yours. You can absorb the cultivation of my kin...."
Her gaze filled with bloodlust and murderous intent, "You eat the corpses of my kin for cultivation, you are the greatest natural enemy of our clan on this planet!"
"You want to kill me?"
Zhu Zhengwei was surprised.
"What do you think?" the Hostage said.
"If you want to kill me, you wouldn't waste so many words, and you can't kill me either." Zhu Zhengwei sat down calmly, very leisurely.
Zhu Zhengwei pretended not to know the other's background and intentions, he was somewhat curious and asked again, "Please answer seriously, what brings you to me?"
The Hostage was momentarily speechless, "Just...to see."
Zhu Zhengwei glanced at her.
She appeared extremely dangerous and violent, but in reality, he already felt that this Hostage, this world's King of Disaster Beasts, seemed somewhat kind and compassionate...even pure.
Was she scaring herself?
This surprised Zhu Zhengwei.
The Hostage was different from the image he had set in his mind.
Indeed, the generation parameters of a world were written by himself.
But what it would specifically evolve into was unknown.
It's like building a sandbox game, you can choose "terrain," "size," "monster group," "difficulty," and then go on an adventure... But the actual specific situation is uncontrollable, dreams are random.
Zhu Zhengwei sat down and tentatively asked, "May I ask why you restrict the soul domain of humans in this world, putting shackles in their brains?"
This was the mission Zhu Zhengwei set for her.
But turning around to ask her why was quite deceptive.
Zhu Zhengwei also wanted to know the logic of the setting he gave her, that made her dedicate her life to this mission.
The Hostage glanced at him and gave her explanation: "The answer is simple, because once they're able to cultivate, our Disaster Beast clan will face the painful extinction, the fate of being enslaved!"
"If they can cultivate, they will lie on us to eat Qi and cultivate... At that time, we will form a conflict of interest and cannot coexist peacefully like this anymore."
Zhu Zhengwei was stunned, "So, you restricted their soul domain development for the continuation of the Disaster Beast clan?"
"Yes."
She nodded, "It's actually very good now. Disaster Beasts and humans coexist peacefully, although some Disaster Beasts possess violent tendencies and are kept in zoos, they all respect the power of life."
This explanation and behavior logic are very reasonable, it seems that the self-evolving world will form its own logical loop.
After all, neighboring Ancestral Witch world, Red Moon world, all have internal conflicts arising from this aspect, the Disaster Beasts rebel, humans train by eating Qi, conflict of interest.
"Do they really respect life? Respect you Disaster Beasts?"
Zhu Zhengwei muttered this word, looking at the Hostage before him.
He suddenly realized that this science fiction world before him, with no worries about food and clothing, humans paid great attention to human rights, respect for other life... Even Disaster Beasts with consciousness were influenced by them.
The entire world was filled with a sense of compassion and peace?
Zhu Zhengwei pondered:
"As an Earth scientist, a teacher, I gather and deduce a future science fiction world."
"This might be the ultimate form of Earth society development, a Utopian World... With the liberation of productivity, no need to farm, work, clock in, everything is automated, humans are born to enjoy, from childhood to adulthood without competition, not having to work around the clock, just needing sympathy, compassion, a comfortable life, stressing human rights, equality...."
Such a world is not necessarily bad.
It's even very good because their technology is also rapidly developing into a perfectly healthy society.
However, it lacks a certain bloodlust.
The neighborhood is a feudal world of jungle law's food chain strong, while here is a peaceful world without slaughter, everyone is a mortal, even the Disaster Beasts in this world coexist peacefully with them.
"It's somewhat absurd," Zhu Zhengwei thought to himself, but then said to the Hostage in front of him, "Then if I eat your kind to cultivate, what do you plan to do?"
The Hostage thought for a moment, giving an opinion, "As long as you don't kill the living kind, and eat the dead companions, that would be enough... After all, the dead companion is not a companion anymore, just like humans eat fish, a dead fish is already food."
Zhu Zhengwei was completely dumbfounded.
Goodness.
You are also thoroughly influenced, starting to put emphasis on human rights and dignity.
I won't kill your companions, eating the Qi of their dead companions will do.
"The future development of this world is truly curious." Zhu Zhengwei murmured, "Their ridiculous compassion might one day lead their civilization to a great mistake, towards death?"
"Perhaps," the Hostage did not know she was talking about herself, replied, "Unfortunately, their level of civilization has already been restricted by me... Both of us know the cultivation of the soul, the strength is the qualitative change... Without research, their technology will get stuck here."
"You eat Disaster Beasts to cultivate, also stained with my air, you are considered half of our kind." she said, "Let us two quietly watch the development of this era together."
Eat your Qi, and be half of your kind?
The Disaster Beast Demon Kingdom next door would hear this and want to fight!
Where's the spy from?
Zhu Zhengwei shook his head, yet chuckled, "You have restricted their Soul Domain Science, and their technology will stagnate? That's impossible."
"Impossible?"
The Hostage was curious, "Why? Without soul cultivation, only modifying the body, people will forever be just mortals, their life level cannot correspondingly improve, technology inevitably halts."
The reason is simple.
Soul cultivation transforms one into a strong person, the smarter they become, the wiser, naturally able to research a more powerful technological civilization.
And now?
They have reached their intelligence limit.
Just like a monkey civilization's intelligence level can never develop into a human technological society unless the monkey evolves, intelligence improves, life level elevates, becomes human, only then can they research human technology...
In front, their wisdom cannot raise the upper limit, reaching this level is very impressive already.
"No, you underestimate them, underestimate the species of humanity... They don't need to enhance their soul, they can also enhance their brain's computing power, wisdom talents."
"Because the evolution of life is not just about enhancing the soul.... A purely technological civilization should even abandon the flesh and soul power." Zhu Zhengwei's words aroused the curiosity of the Hostage greatly.
And he just uttered a sentence to explain: "I speculate, this Magnetic Civilization will embark on a wondrous path... The flesh is weak, mechanical ascension."
The Hostage's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, also thinking of something.
