The Star Knight - Chapter 124
“I never thought he was the Pope…” Opal whispered to Raymond across the table: “it doesn’t look as big as Sid.
Raymond’s fork twirled between his fingers, and his face seemed to be thinking. After a moment, he asked, “has he arranged your accommodation?”
Pointing to the distance, opal said, “let me live in the forgotten corridor, just me. I asked him if he could let you over, and he said yes, but you can only go in during the day and go back to the dormitory at night
Opal and Raymond were placed in different places, and Ramon said, “watch the change.”
Opal said, “he also asked me to call him” Your Majesty. “I wonder if the shepherd is holding the light now
“I just got in touch with izur and the teacher in the circum wind system when I went to check in,” Raymond said
Opal said, “what do you say?”
“I’m in your name,” Raymond said. “Corolin is not in the optical grip. He hasn’t gone back. The shepherd is already in meteor palace.”
Opal asked again, “what did the teacher do when he ran up to Huanfeng? Didn’t he plan to stay in Alex’s administrative province? ”
Raymond said, “he went to find someone named Justin Rodman…”
“Uncle!” Opal said in surprise.
Raymond nodded. “After the last time we were on falcon, the empire may have been inspired by the upper echelons to let Justin into the military system.”
Opal squinted and nodded slowly.
Raymond asked, “when does your homework start? I’ll follow you? ”
Opal suddenly remembered, looked at the time and said, “Oh, no, time is coming. Hurry up.”
After Ramon’s lunch in twos and threes, they trod through the garden. As they passed the forgotten corridor, opal slowed down and came to a door.
“This is his study.” Opal whispered to Raymond.
Raymond nodded and opened the door for him. He saw drammon sitting in a large velvet armchair. Opal said, “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting, sire.”
“It doesn’t matter. Tens of thousands of years have passed, just a few minutes. Let’s begin today’s lecture. ”
Opal nodded, and grabini said, “you can sit down and be at ease. Don’t be too restrained. What are you doing standing there? ”
Raymond bowed down, consciously closed the door of his study and stood outside as a guard.
Opal looked around. The study was decorated in a classical way. He thought of tifeng and the library of the prophet he had mentioned.
“I have a lot of questions for you, sir.” Opal went to the table by the window, where there was a coffee pot with only one cup.
In the study, large and small crystal balls are suspended by anti gravity technology. Each crystal ball is filled with water. There are one or more goldfish in the spherical goldfish tank, reflecting the gorgeous sunshine.
“That’s what I prepared for you,” gleebini said
Opal looked up at the goldfish bowl and asked, “let’s have another cup in?”
“No, I don’t want coffee. I’ll take medicine later,” gleebini said
Opal’s heart moved, drink medicine? Colin also mentioned earlier that the Pope’s time is running out Is he going to die? But according to Rex, the soul of this man is really immortal, and the weakness of his body is just a matter of changing his body.
Grabini yawned and said, “draw a card. Compare the size. Who wins the question.”
Opal:
Opal thought it was really his style, so he used to draw a card, opal drew a K, and grabini drew 2.
Opal said, “Sir, I want to ask about the wheel of time…”
Grabini: “no, 2 is bigger than K. when you play 13, 2 is the biggest. It’s my turn to ask you. ”
“OK,” opal said
“Did Colin mention a prince of the phantom named ignor?” gleebini said? What did you say? ”
Opal:!! ”
He didn’t expect that grabini would ask a question so directly. After thinking for a long time, he replied, “teacher, he He believes that Nolan is his mentor, and he exists in pursuit of the truth in the universe Let me see… ”
Opal told gleebini what he had mentioned about Nolan when he lived with Colin. The Pope just listened with his eyes closed. His frail figure was shrank in the blanket. The sunlight poured in from the window, shining on him. He looked very thin.
“That’s about it,” opal said
Grabini didn’t speak, as if asleep.
Opal:
“Your Majesty?” Opal had a feeling of being played.
Grebini opened his eyes wearily and said, “you know less than I thought.”
Opal was speechless.
Grabini yawned and scratched his neck wearily. Just as he was about to say something, there was a knock on the door. A bishop in glasses and a golden robe pushed in the door, with a silver bowl in his hand, and said, “Your Majesty, take the medicine.”Opal saw that there was a dark green potion in the bowl, just like the acid liquor beast’s s s .
“It’s up to me to ask.” Opal has a Q, and the Pope’s card is 7.
The Pope drank the medicine, handed the silver bowl to the bishop and nodded.
For some reason, opal looked at the bishop and changed his question. He wanted to ask about his father, but someone else was there. He didn’t want to discuss it in front of others. He said, “shepherd and you have the same surname?”
“Yes.” “In a sense, he was my adopted son, or he would have been another me, but the timing was wrong, and another thing happened at that time, which forced me to leave without occupying his body, so I finally adopted him.”
Opal nodded slowly. He remembered that Rex had said that Pope delamont’s life continued in different bodies. According to his understanding, this kind of continuation should be the cultivation of a fetus, into the body of the fetus
The Archbishop bowed down to leave. After leaving, opal remembered the question he had just asked and said, “the teacher didn’t tell me anything. He knows a lot.”
Grabini touched a piece of sugar and put it into his mouth? I suspect that he knows nothing about what he is going to do, and he just insists on using force, destruction and other means to solve all problems… ”
Opal said, “no, no, your majesty, I think the teacher’s faith is stronger than anyone else…”
“Faith is the stuff of the star knights. Only ractor believes in it. Even ignor, the founder of the star knight, has never mentioned the word” faith “. It is just a projection of the soul in the five-dimensional world in our branch universe. Are you sure there is such a thing in the world
Opal: “there are Well, I don’t understand what you’re talking about
“Forget it, if you say you have it, the next question,” grabini said
Opal said, “wait, can you explain it in detail?”
“Wait a minute. I’ll answer you when it’s your turn to ask questions,” gleebini said
The two draw cards and opal asks.
He raised the most important issue of his trip.
“My father’s name is Logan.” Opal said, “sire, I don’t know if you remember him. He has something to do with the wheel of time.”
“Yes.” “Other things may be forgotten, but I always remember about the wheel of time,” grabini said. You’re Logan’s son, and Caroline sent me a letter in five years. I mentioned your life experience. I think why you were discovered by Colin, it should be a very interesting story
Opal said: “the teacher also wants to ask this question, where is the wheel of time now?”
Grabini shook his head.
Opal asked again, “what mission did it take? Is it just exploration? ”
Grabini closed his eyes and said for a long time, “it can be said that we should explore the origin and significance of the existence of our world.”
Opal said, “I know it brought back the phantom on its first return. What does this have to do with the starrider? What the teacher did didn’t tell me, was it related to the phantom? Are they from five dimensions? ”
“Yes.” “Strictly speaking, the world in which the mirage and mother of man is located was originally a four-dimensional universe that is almost the same as ours. It is one of many parallel universes. You can assume that in another mirror universe, there are some people like us who have passed faster than this universe, have a longer history, and slowly evolved, and finally Become a phantom without a body but only a soul. ”
Opal squinted and asked, “and then? What do you know about the wheel of time and the migration of the mirage? ”
Grabini snapped his finger and said, “then, these intelligent life began to explore the five dimensional world. In the process, some changes happened. They wandered between the four dimensions and the five dimensions, and were found by the wheel of time and brought back to our universe.”
Opal nodded, keenly aware that his father’s third exploration must have something to do with it, and asked, “what happened?”
Grabini suddenly fell silent and winked at opal.
Opal:
Someone’s listening?
There were only two of them in the study. Raymond was standing outside. Opal’s heart was pounding. It seemed to me that there was something deep in glibini’s action.
But before he could think about it, gleebini said, “I will give you a lesson. There are three questions in it. Take it back to think about it. Of course, you can also ask your bodyguard for help. When you get the answers to these three questions, I think you will understand a lot of things.”
Opal knows that there must be some kind of eavesdropping mechanism. Even grebini can’t talk about it. But who can install a bug in the Pope’s study? Is it so serious?
He nodded thoughtfully, and grabini said, “the first question is that a group of monkeys live in a greenhouse with special restrictions…”Opal:
Grabini:
Opal heard a term he had never touched before and asked, “what is a monkey?”
Glibini:…. ”
“The monkey is…” “There’s a bunch of bohms,” gleebini said, rather difficultly
“Oh.” Said opal.
“Forget it or use monkeys. There are a group of monkeys living in a greenhouse. They can eat the food produced in the greenhouse every day. It’s not too rich, but they can barely survive.”
Opal nodded slowly, and grabini said, “and the rule of this greenhouse is: you can only go out, you can’t go in. After leaving the greenhouse, the outside world may be desert, or it may be a broader orchard with more abundant food. Of course, there may be nothing. Monkeys don’t know what exists outside. Occasionally, some monkeys leave the greenhouse, but without exception, they never come back. ”
Opal asked, “do monkeys know the rule?”
“Good…” “They don’t know any rules of the greenhouse area itself, or even why the boundaries of the greenhouse exist. They only know one thing – the companions who leave the greenhouse disappear.”
Opal said, “this is the monkey’s perspective, but from the perspective of us, the experimenter, there is a broader living space outside, and there is no need to worry about any danger. Suppose you are a member of the monkeys, you know this from a certain way, what method do you think is needed to make the monkeys live a better and happier life? Is it necessary to do so? And the motivation for doing so. This is the first question. ”
Opal:
“The second question.” “Do you believe that people have souls?” gleebini asked
Opal nodded and said, “believe it.”
“What is the soul? Answer me now, don’t use what Caroline taught you, tell me in your own understanding,” said grabini
Opal thought for a moment and said, “the soul is formed gradually from birth The symbol of one person being different from another, I think it is like this. It is the spirit of human independent existence
“So do you think animals have souls? For example, a monkey. ”
Opal said, “I still don’t know what a monkey is.”
Grabini: that doesn’t matter, like a bohm
Opal said, “it should be Have you? Yes
“And a bird?” gleebini added
Opal: Yes, birds do
Grabini: does an earthworm have its soul? Or ants, insects? ”
Opal:
“It’s like Yes Opal said, “do ants have brains? They can think, they can carry things. Yes, what about earthworms? I don’t know, your majesty. ”
Opal thinks of the earthworms that attacked him and Raymond. The earthworms seem to know something. There is always something different between an earthworm and another earthworm. If you copy two earthworms, is the replicator equal to two noumenon? impossible.
He simply defined the soul, saying, “what has life has a soul.”
“What about microbes?” gleebini asked
Opal was shocked.
“What about the virus?” gleebini said
Opal:
“It’s too far away,” said gleebini. “Now I’ll ask you the second question – when do people have their own souls?”
Opal also knew a little about the formation of life from the knowledge he had learned before. However, the problem seems to be more complicated. Is it the first second that a newborn leaves its mother’s body and comes to this world? What about babies in the incubator? Open your eyes and see the world for the first time? It doesn’t seem right either.
Does the sperm combine with the egg and become a fertilized egg?
No, the fertilized egg was unconscious at that time.
“The third question.” “Human life is made of carbon,” gleebini said thoughtfully, with his hands and fingers apart
“Yes, I know that carbon based life is the most common form of life in the universe,” opal said
Grabini’s finger moved slightly and asked, “why is it carbon based that gives us the wisdom to think about all this, and not something else?”
Opal said, “this Because the number of electrons on the outside of carbon Only four? It can be associated with many elements… ”
Grabini interrupted opal’s explanation and asked, “why is the number of electrons on the periphery of carbon four?”
Opal said: “it was when the universe formed It comes into being. ”
“Atoms, electrons, molecules, photons, they all have their own characteristics and laws,” he added
Opal said, “yes, yes, the law.”
“Why is there such a complex law that the world just starts and evolves like this, and finally produces life as complex as human beings?”Opal:!! ”
“Where does the law come from? Are they in the world from the beginning? Four basic forces constrain the motion of all particles. Are these rules natural? Sociology, economics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, etc Why do these complex laws exist? ”
Opal said: “the law is actually summed up by people.”
“But even if no one sums it up, there are rules,” says gleebini
Opal:
“Yes.” Opal’s scalp suddenly felt numb.
“Three questions, take them back to think about them.” “I’m sure you’ll soon know what your father used to think,” gleebini said
