The Star Knight - Chapter 125

“Not at all.” Raymond said helplessly.

Opal wolfed down the dinner on his plate. He always felt that he was easily hungry recently. He did not know whether his body was growing or whether the environment in the land of arc of light was very good, which made him feel peaceful, ate more and sleep well.

Opal said: “you are not a teacher, what else? Some more baked noodles, please

Raymond thought for a moment and said, “but there’s one question I’ve thought about, and I’ve thought about it more than once.”

Opal: the second question

Raymond nodded. Opal knew that he couldn’t help thinking. The problem of Raymond or Colin must have troubled Raymond more than once in a period of time.

However, opal never cared about theoretical things. He only relied on a simple intuitive judgment of Raymond’s soul.

“I think.” Raymond said: “my soul existed before I opened my eyes. At that time, I didn’t have any recollections of Colin, and I didn’t have any special thoughts. My mind was completely blank. It was like waking up from the dark and knowing nothing when I woke up. It was very strange…”

Opal couldn’t remember that he was still a baby. No, the state of the fetus, but Raymond knew!

Raymond must remember!

“What about it? Describe it. ” Opal stops eating and looks at Ramon.

Raymond said, “it’s black all around. I I feel very quiet. How can I say it? It’s strange. I’m… ”

Opal said: “isn’t this time driven by survival instinct? For example, if you want to drink when you are thirsty, you need to eat when you are hungry… ”

Raymond seemed to be thinking, frowning slightly.

“No Raymond said: “it’s to feel your own existence first, not to perceive the outside world. It’s a very hazy consciousness. You know yourself first, then wake up and feel the surrounding environment.”

Opal said, “which time?”

“The first time.” “In the lab,” Raymond said

Opal said, “you know the surroundings before you open your eyes?”

Raymond said, “no, I know I’m human, and I can’t say I know I’m human, I know myself…”

Opal immediately grasped the center and said, “you are aware of your own existence.”

Raymond said, “yes! That’s what it means! Then I opened my eyes and the incubator opened. I felt that when my first thought came into being, I had my own soul. Maybe it is. And then I used to wonder, am I part of Colin? I think so, because this idea was created out of nothing… ”

Opal was a little confused and said, “when a fetus can realize its existence, does it have a soul? What happened later? The second time you’re alive… ”

Raymond said: “the second time I felt like this, I was driving the plane armour to Colin’s side, and it was dark in front of me. At that time, it became dark all around. I moved, and I thought I was dead? It’s just a short moment. If I open my eyes again, I can see you, who have become a child, and myself. ”

What did you say before you caught a word from opal

Raymond said, “when you open your eyes…”

Opal said, “no, not that! In front of me… ”

Raymond: the second feeling is

Opal: “before.”

Raymond said, “the idea suddenly came into being? I think it’s wonderful to be created out of nothingness… ”

Opal said, “yes, it was created out of nothing, consciousness.”

They looked at each other for a long time. Opal vaguely thought of something, but he couldn’t say it clearly. He remembered a long, long time ago, a paragraph that corolin had said to him.

At that time, they were forced to land on an unknown planet. The primeval forest and the ancient lake reflected the moonlight. Caroline returned to the castle with Opal as a child and told him that the universe was created from nothing. Logan thought that the pioneer who ignited the fuse for the universe was the intelligent life bred in the universe, which obviously did not conform to causal inference.

His mind was in chaos. It seemed that through this question, he understood what the soul came from nothing. Even a sleeping fetus would know his existence. When he realized his existence, his survival instinct would be aroused.

Is that right? That’s what opal said when he decided to face the Pope. But what’s the connection between this and his father’s exploration?

While he was still thinking, Raymond’s communicator rang.

“Teacher?” opal said

Unable to eat, opal got up and went back to the room with Raymond and turned on the projector.

Lecter, in a baseball cap, half leaned against the front cover of a floating car and said, “opal, Raymond, how are you doing?”

Opal described the Pope once. Ractor held his arm, pondered for a moment, and said, “let me tell you something about my side.”

Raymond holding opal, two people sitting by the bed, E7 shot the holographic projection of ractor. Behind him is a very beautiful city. From here, it seems that lequet is on the mountain road and can overlook the whole city.”Justin and I went over and came here from the circumfluence, the sub constant galaxy.” “Justin, through the shepherd, has been inspired by the Pope to test Alex’s meaning,” raikker said. And I accompanied him as an entourage, and in my contact with Alex, I read some of his thoughts that carltes was about to abdicate, and that Alex was very likely to become the next emperor of the Empire. The Rotman family had long been afraid of the power of the Holy See, and they decided to unite with the imperial queen innI to support her youngest son, Alex

Sure enough, ractor could get the most important news.

Ramon asked, “where’s regison?”

“This interest group involves a lot of people.” Rex looked a little tired and said, “there are a long list of representatives of the Alex camp with their own purposes. Most of them you don’t know. I’ll make a long story short. As Alex’s mentor, he has considerable influence in the Holy See. After the end of the dark age, he used his influence to cultivate many of his cronies, including bishop Kane, the head of the Galactic diocese who was implanted with anti hypnosis by Colin five years ago

Opal: “no wonder! I know who the Pope is talking about

Raymond said: “I think of that guy who fell out of the sky after fighting with us for the star map fragment of ignor’s eye.”

Ractor shook his head and did not speak for a long time.

After millions of light years, opal seemed to be able to feel his disappointment with legeson. He thought twice and didn’t know how to say to ractor. Ramon said, “where’s Baroque? I don’t think he should be so down and out. ”

“Baroque has the support from the whole Galactic Republic. They contacted him through the ambassador of the Republic, kashtran, and made observations. Tilgat collapsed. Geng Wen, the new president of Parliament, formulated the new strategic goal of peaceful diplomacy and common development, and made peace talks with Colin. They believe that after Baroque takes power, he will reduce his armaments for a period of time. But Baroque lacks military support, so Justin is his only support. ”

Raymond said, “is Justin sure to support him?”

“Yes, after talking to Alex, I think Justin will really support him, because Alex’s ideas are not in line with him. Those in power with yini’s faction unite with the Rottman family to weaken the influence of the Vatican and gradually expel the missionaries of the Church of stars in the lion system.”

Opal said, “where’s carltes?”

“The Lion King’s attitude is very difficult to figure out. He allowed Justin into the army, gave him a position of real power and charisma, and allowed Alex to do what he did. No one knows what he’s thinking. Sometimes no attitude is a kind of attitude. I guess he also regards the pope as his opponent. Both sides make a good deal, put pieces on the chessboard, and then wait for the right time to play games. Let Alex represent himself and Baroque the Pope. ”

Opal said, “it’s stupid The Pope is in charge of him, isn’t he? I even doubt that he has some kind of unknown arrangement and conspiracy

“Don’t forget that drummon still has a great influence in the Empire. Even adventurers have many followers of stars. If carltes doesn’t follow the rules, it’s very likely that drammon will take violent measures to solve the problem. According to your description of him, he is likely to do so.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” “He’s a little nervous indeed,” opal agreed

Raymond laughed and said, “what about the pirates?”

“It was the Rottman family that brought about the alliance between liexing and GSA. This plan had been put forward since Azeroth was in power. Azeroth agreed with Rotman’s proposal at that time, and planned to gradually merge liexing and GSA in a peaceful and transitional way in the next 100 years, and finally completely merge into the Empire.”

Opal:

“But Colin launched the invasion of liexing, Azeroth had to break the negotiations and return home immediately. I found out in the grand astronautics association that Rottman had started six years ago.”

Opal said: “in fact, I think Azeroth is right. Liexing can at least…”

“It’s hard to say who is right and who is wrong. The late king of mercenaries has his own consideration. On the one hand, mercenaries can go ashore in a collective way, and they will no longer be lawbreakers in the universe. On the other hand, they have lost their position. After being incorporated into the astronautics Association, liexing must abide by the imperial law and will no longer retain its original characteristics. If Azeroth had ambition, I guess he might have thought about the idea of allowing strong star to annex the great astronautics Association, rather than simply handing over the mercenary state to the Empire. ”

“I always thought that Solon’s appearance was the inspiration of Colin, and now it seems that it has nothing to do with Colin.” “Solon interfered with liexing through the youngest son of a declining pirate family, and further investigation is needed as to whether he is in collusion with Baroque,” said raikker. It’s your turn. ”

“We just arrived one afternoon and the Pope set me three questions,” opal said

He asked the question to ractor, who, after a brief deliberation, answered him.

Dr. redter: “the first question of the Pope, Nolan has also put forward that the greenhouse represents four-dimensional space, while the world outside the greenhouse represents a higher dimension. Nolan believes that this is one of the choices that natural population evolution must face. Primary life evolved into animals, animals evolved into intelligent animals, and intelligent animals evolved into intelligent life. After a long evolution, intelligent life began to look for a new way out. “”The present situation, and the situation after leaving the greenhouse, represents human life and death.” “A brief life is a confined area within the greenhouse, while a long death represents an unbounded space outside the greenhouse,” said raikker

When Opal heard this question, he was shocked beyond description.

“What is life?” Lecter said? What is death? Nolan found the answer in their parallel universes. The death of human beings is the process of the soul’s transition to a higher dimensional world. After death, they leave our universe and can’t come back again. So you can’t say whether the world of death is good or not, and you can’t get the situation of another world. You don’t even know whether that world exists. This is the concern of the monkeys. ”

Opal said, “so the illusionists from the five dimensional world Oh, my God, the information I saw mentioned the break-up between the ivory tower and the Scientific Research Association It was in Nolan’s father’s After the meeting? ”

“Maybe it was the mirage who brought the answer to the ultimate question, and Nolan didn’t mention the details to me because I didn’t understand it at that time,” raikker said. Now, of course, I don’t quite understand. ”

Raymond said, “this is ridiculous. It means that if you want to explore five dimensions, you have to commit suicide.”

“Suicide is the only serious philosophical question, but I don’t think he meant it. Maybe the Pope will tell you another answer. Apprentices, the teacher’s time is limited. I told Justin I was just out for a walk. He’s a great student of tifeng, and I don’t want to let him know too early that I’m in contact with the Pope. Opal, you need to convey a very important thing to the Pope. The situation may not be completely under his control. As a friend of Natasha, I will provide her with some assistance in due course, but not necessarily on the Pope’s side. As for the differences in the relationship with Colin, we all need to rethink and position ourselves. It can only be put on hold. ”

“What about the second and third questions, teacher?” Opal realized that he would still have the opportunity to contact ractor in the future, so he consciously switched.

“Second, I don’t know. I haven’t been involved in this area.” Ractor shook his head and said, “as for the third, I think maybe the rules themselves are the creator of everything? Justin? ”

There came Justin’s voice. His voice was very polite and said, “sir…”

Ractor cut off the communication.

Opal lay in bed, as if to understand something, but also seemed more confused.

Raymond said, “you figured out the first two questions?”

Opal said, “the Pope told me not to use the teacher’s answer. I don’t know how to answer him. Go to sleep first. Maybe you’ll get up tomorrow and have a new idea. ”

At night, Raymond simply put things away, and opal did not go back. He simply lay on Raymond’s bed and fell asleep in their arms.

On his first day in the Vatican, opal was very sleepy. Before that, he did not sleep well. He soon fell asleep.

In the dark, he felt Raymond touch his forehead, and when he opened it, he found himself slowly becoming smaller!

At the age of twelve, he was at a loss, uncovering the quilt and getting up.

“Long time no see, opal.” Raymond’s voice sounded. When Opal looked up, he saw that in the dormitory room of the Holy See, Raymond was holding his arm and half sitting in front of his desk.

“Teacher?” Opal recognized Caroline almost instantly, and now he found that he had many small details similar to that of ractor, perhaps a habit formed over thousands of years.

“The Pope sent me a message.” Colin said in the dark, “are you at the bottom seat?”

“Is this a dream?” Opal looked around, snapped his finger, and the blue light of the stars lit up in the room: “well, I saw the Pope, ask him to collect information about my father. what about you? Where are you? ”

“I’m in the Nu Luoxing, tracking Kyle Ray’s whereabouts.” Cololin said, “Sauron is with him. Solon is an old lover of the mother of a prince of the Empire…”

“Baroque?” opal said

Colingway was a little surprised, and then said with a smile, “you are also investigating this matter?”

Opal nodded. He wanted to ask something else, but he was distracted by something and said, “Sauron is very old…”

“Do you think he should have a genetic operation? After all, not every old man is as charming as his teacher. ”

Opal laughed, and Colin said solemnly: “the Pope’s trouble is coming. Carltes is going to deal with him. Now I’ll give you a task. If anything happens, I suggest you take away the valuable property of delamont and run quickly. I will recover the collection of the Great Hall of stars from you according to the auction price…”

“Oh, teacher.” Opal said, “you are so inhumane. His apprentice is still in your hands.”

Colin was silent for a moment and seemed to be thinking. Opal suddenly remembered that their communication in the dream was completely spontaneous. They could read each other’s thinking, so he directly read the consciousness of Caroline.

In his mind, it is the kingdom of light arc which has become ruins, and the accession of monks and soldiers led by herdsmen.”Is it so serious?” Opal said, “but the teacher’s inference is He thinks that carltes will follow the rules and let Alex represent himself and Baroque play for the Pope, because he dare not challenge the authority of the Pope openly… ”

“No Colin shook his head and said, “if I were carltes, I would not have done this. After all, he has been bullied by the Pope for too long. This is the only chance to turn over.”

“But both are his sons. No matter who wins, the Empire will continue,” opal said

“No, No “Teacher, he thinks too simply, he underestimates the role of a person, and that person is crucial,” said Caroline

“Who?” Opal road.

Colin was silent, and opal went to read his heart, but the thought was fleeting, and had passed.

“Just think about it. What else did the Pope say to you?” said Caroline

Opal laughed, and Caroline said, “now that you’ve got your wish, I’m in a group with Mr. Rex. You have to make the message clear, or I think Natasha might go to the empire with a fork. She’s very angry now.”

“I haven’t asked the Pope these things yet. He seems to be under surveillance and asked me only three questions,” opal said

Colin frowned, “being watched? No way. Who can watch him? His consciousness is not in his body at all. No one in the Vatican can know what he’s thinking if he wants to

“What?” opal said

Colin seemed to be having a headache about how to explain the problem to opal, then pressed his palm directly on his forehead, transmitting the image of a man.

It was a girl with a black cat in her arms.

Opal knows her. She is a prophet on the scarlet star!

Now, the way you need to understand is to let go of the old witch’s hand

Opal nodded slowly, and Caroline said, “what three questions?”

Opal said those three questions.

Colin was silent for a long time, and finally said, “the first question is Nolan’s answer, but I don’t quite agree with him. Mr. raikker never questioned Nolan’s point of view, because he thought Nolan was a higher creature than us. But I think there is still something in common between us and the illusionists. Do you remember the form of ‘common knowledge’ that I mentioned to you in the source of the floodlight

Opal: “remember, in the whole civilized society, you can read my heart, and I can also know what you are thinking. There is no conspiracy, no frame up, no conquest and power. I always think there is something wrong in this.”

Colin said: “yes, there is no sensibility, only rationality. Sensibility is born from physical experience and pursuit of pleasure. Rational civilization is the ultimate destination of human spirit after separation. It transcends the limitations of the body and leaves the four-dimensional world, just like a group of illusionists, to pursue a new way of life. This is a trial, and the trial is near. The first trial was stopped by Nolan. Now Nolan is dead and the wheel of time is missing. The ivory tower says that there is no future for mankind. Do you believe that, opal

Opal said, “wait I don’t quite understand. What’s the way? ”

Caroline said: “the way of evolution from four-dimensional life to five-dimensional life, and then constantly transfer in the dimension, finally…”

He stopped talking, and there was a look of thinking in his eyes.

Opal asked, “what happened in the end?”

“No one knows, because there is no precedent. If we succeed in replacing the existence of the highest dimension, then perhaps all the dimensions will collapse and disintegrate, creating a new world, or everything will return to zero and disappear, from “being” to “nothing” again, or perhaps a new dimension will be opened up, and it will be increased above 11 dimensions… ”

Colin pressed his hand again on opal’s forehead.

There was a spot of light in the distance. The next second, it circled around the spot. Opal saw the white line of shining stars burst out, turned into countless faces, and then expanded into a body. Countless individuals were created layer by layer and turned into a magnificent world.

“Four dimensional organisms have evolved into five dimensions.” “They will exist in all parallel universes at the same time, and each soul dominates its own projection in all the worlds,” cololin said. But they failed, proving that the road was impassable, and the Pope was the second to get the news. That’s my answer to the first question. ”

“Why failed?” Opal said, “is that what you believe in? What do you mean by trial

Colin thought about it, looked at him seriously, and said, “these popes will tell you, but now opal, I want to ask you a question. If you don’t understand, ask the Pope and see what he says

Opal nodded. Colin said, “suppose there is a” you “in the total darkness. You can’t touch the outside world, you can’t see, you can’t hear, you can’t touch Even without the concept of “environment” and “world”, can you realize your existence at this time? “Opal thought for a moment and said, “yes, maybe. Because my memory is still there. ”

“What if you’re just a fetus?” Caroline said? The memory of the past experience has not yet been formed in your mind. A lonely brain, which has grown up enough to think, is empty and has not been added any memory. It exists in the endless void. Can you realize the existence of “I”

Opal thought for a long time and said, “yes, I think so.”

“What if you don’t have a brain?” Caroline said

Opal said: “it’s too hard to imagine, teacher, I have never experienced…”

“That’s my answer to the second question. The third question, Raymond, has already answered you

“What?” opal said

“The world is a soul, a consciousness, which is created from nothing,” said Caroline. You can think of the world including all dimensions as a consciousness completely different from our human form. The process of intelligent life’s dimension upgrading is the journey of infinitely approaching this great consciousness. Assuming that our world is a greenhouse for monkeys, this greenhouse may only account for 4 / 11 of the world. Intelligent life is constantly evolving, with the purpose of integrating itself into the complete world, Or make yourself a complete world. ”

Opal said, “I I don’t know. What will happen after evolution? ”

“For example, I exist in the four-dimensional world. If you decompose the four-dimensional universe, you will find me in every three-dimensional universe moment. I also exist in yesterday’s three-dimensional world, the three-dimensional world of the day before yesterday, the three-dimensional universe of the day before yesterday…”

“When you rotate and decompose these three-dimensional worlds into plane slices across the universe along an axis through my body, you will find that each piece has a part of me Similarly, when you set a center in the center of my slice and decompose this plane into countless radius lines, you will also find that there is a part of me in each line – I am everywhere after dimensionality reduction. But it’s limited to four-dimensional, three-dimensional, two-dimensional, descending lines of the world. ”

“We don’t exist in the fifth dimension. Only creatures that exist in the five dimensional world – let’s put it this way, if there are creatures, they will exist in every dimension below the five dimensions. In the same way, the existence of the six dimensions is also inclusive down to the highest dimension, which is the root of the world. The existence and designer of all rules. ”

“The original consciousness is everywhere, and the world in all dimensions has its projection. As the ancient philosophers said, God only exists in every place, but we can only exist in four dimensions. If intelligent life wants to be integrated or replaced, it will be rejected by it. This is the end of the illusionist people. Goodbye, opal, I have to go, and the water is boiling. The beautiful president of the plant Promotion Association is waiting for me to accompany her to have green leaf coffee

Opal: wait, teacher, I seem to understand a little Isn’t the president Caesar’s lover? How did you rob Caesar Don’t go

Colin laughed at him and said, “we’ll meet again.”

Opal said, “at last! There is another thing! I won’t be a child when I wake up! ”

“You’ve grown up and left me.” Colin left opal’s dream, the last sentence still echoed in his mind: “only in my dreams and memories, you are a child.”

Opal opened his eyes and Raymond whispered, “what’s the matter?”

Opal stares at Ramon. Ramon comes to kiss him. Opal feels strange. He holds Ramon’s head for a long time.

Raymond whispered, “what did you dream of? Are you all right, wife? You’ve been smoking from time to time in your sleep recently. Are you growing up

Opal laughed, nodded, put his arm around Raymond’s neck and kissed him with ease.

The next day, opal had many things he had not thought of, but he knew it was not important. The pope would tell him something. After all, drummon needed an assistant to get him here.

Raymond still sent opal to the Pope’s study. When Opal opened the door, he found that there was something invisible in the room.

Instead of looking at opal, gleebini said to the air, “I promise that, but I don’t have much time. You’d better do it as soon as possible.”

In an instant, a slight change took place in the study. The three illusionists showed their body shapes, and opal found that they were the noumenon form of the phantom people – the core with the arc and the blue light around them.

He felt that all three of them were paying attention to him.

“This is Wagner, the great lord of the magic star, and this is the disciple of corolin, opal.” Grebini said.

Opal bowed slightly, Wagner directly in the way of conscious communication in the two people’s minds: “goodbye, delamont.”

After the disappearance of the three illusionists, opal knew that the abilities of these higher creatures were extraordinary, and they could not read the thoughts of grebini?

“Sit down.” “Do you still have coffee today?” gleebini said

Opal said, “I’ll do it myself. Do you have to drink medicine every day?”Grabini nodded. He made coffee in front of the window sill of opal. He watched the fish swimming in the spherical goldfish tank. He heard his voice behind his back and said, “I always had a strange idea when I was a child.”

“Well?” Opal is a man of no mind.

“I wonder if people around me can read their minds, everyone can know the mind of anyone in the world, and I’m the only one who’s born without that ability,” gleebini said. So although you all know what I’m thinking all the time, no one exposes me, acts every day to cooperate with me, pretending that everyone has no such ability, so the whole world is not real. ”

Opal said with a smile, “so the one who occasionally reveals this ability is the star knight? Everyone’s playing with the star knight? ”

Gleebini nodded and said, “but I’ve got it. Do you want to try reading my heart?”

Opal’s heart thumped, thinking of yesterday’s analysis with Colin and Rex.

“I don’t read people’s hearts very often anymore.” “Except at a time when my life is at stake with my friend,” opal said

“Oh, no problem.” “Come on, try to read my heart. I’ll allow you to read it. You can look at me completely and see what kind of ideas I’m trying to make under my unsmiling surface…”

Opal:

“Come on, try it,” grabini urged again and again

Therefore, opal intruded into glibini’s mind with the force of faith and read a blank.

This is the first time that he met with the power of faith in his life. Belief of the strong is like an iron wall, which is hard to penetrate into their hearts. However, their thoughts still exist.

But drummon has no soul!

His consciousness is not there at all. What’s going on?!

Opal said, “what about your consciousness? You don’t have consciousness at all

“Of course I have a soul, but I’m not here. I’m hiding in a place you can’t see
