Chapter 547: Awakening (2/2)
Soon, his sense of alienation from the world gradually subsided. As he recovered from his thoughts, seeing Wang Shishi's body that was getting colder, he sighed while a flicker of humanity flashed through his gaze. The next moment, an immense Will rushed out of his body.
The entire Space City had trembled a little!
His eyes were empty and had lost his focus. The whole world seemed to have become the world of atoms to him. The terrifying computational ability of his brain clearly recorded the changes in all atoms each picosecond. With his memory, he could easily restore the atoms to its original state.
The living hall was shrouded in his tremendously terrifying power. All the atoms were controlled by his Will and the atoms were under reflux.
The next moment, the cold dead body soon regained its temperature. The heart that had stopped soon started beating and it was akin to a video playback. Wang Shishi was standing on the ground and her blood started circulating. Lastly, the stripper clip was being pulled out of her temples inch by inch.
The entire process was like the turning back of time.
…
”You're the one who saved my life. Therefore, I'm giving back to you now. I'd like to see...” Before Wang Shishi finished her words, ”Wait!” Luo Yuan interrupted.
”What do you want to say?” Wang Shishi's hand was trembling. She stopped and asked coldly.
”You asked me would I still remain indifferent even after you've died. My answer is no! Thank you Shishi, it seems like I've understood something!” Luo Yuan said despite his tone was still cold but it somehow sounded different.
”What did you understand?” Wang Shishi's wish to die had subsided.
”It's the meaning of life!” Luo Yuan said after thinking for a while.
Soon, Wang Shishi left and she was inexplicably happy.
…
After Wang Shishi had left, Luo Yuan instantly appeared at somewhere near the galaxy. He closed his eyes and was lying across the sky. Under the influence of gravitational force, he revolved freely around the galaxy.
He could finally sense that something was wrong.
Luo Yuan was finally awakened to the fact!
He found out that the decision he made each time was not a subjective decision but was based on the results of the analysis. When Wang Shishi was angry and committed suicide, he had analyzed that her death would do no harm to him. Therefore, even if he could easily stop her from committing suicide, he did nothing and allowed everything to happen.
His strong computational ability seemed to have caused him to become the puppet of computation, weakening his consciousness.
All this did not happen suddenly but gradually.
When he just entered the fourth-dimension, despite he was being cold to them but his condition was not that bad yet. He would still mind what people think about him, especially Chen Xinjie. He would be annoyed by his body that was growing bigger in size and would try his best to reduce the size of his body.
However, as time passed, his feelings towards them subsided and soon, he relied on his brain that possessed a strong computational ability to make a decision and was dominated by rationality. He could no longer distinguish between the thought of his objective consciousness and the judgment made based on his rationality. He slowly entered a maze.
Seemingly, nothing was wrong since all the decisions made were right. Humans would lie but data and logic would not. As a matter of fact, it would result in the weakening of one's subjective consciousness.
Ultimately, it was because his Will was still too weak and could no longer dominate his mind which had such a strong computational ability.
His Will had infused with the ocean of data. Over the past three years, there was no improvement in his Will but it had regressed to a certain extent. Previously, he was lost in thought and could not figure out the reason behind this. Right this moment, he was finally awakened to the fact.
His Will was neither cold nor ruthless. It was the persistence of his subjective consciousness and the way where it expressed oneself.
Without the subjective consciousness, life would be a machine with computational logic. Regardless of one's strength and omniscience, one would only be a low-level creature that was seeking for advantages while avoiding the disadvantages. One would have lost the meaning of life.
