Superhumans of the Dome City-Chapter 1304 - 139: Fulfillment of All Wishes (4)_2
He immediately thought of the explanation for this bizarre occurrence: "The power of the Kong Hua Realm? Her enemy at that time became a retainer of the King of Greed, did the Kong Hua Realm satisfy that person’s wish?"
King Morton closed his eyes, his words full of pity and sorrow.
"That woman is no longer concerned with any of this, she has completely collapsed, a strong Avenger shattered like crystal at that moment. But her enemy had no intention of letting her go, he admired the woman’s nearly insane display and, with one gesture, made her understand the truth.
He severed the woman’s arm and ordered her to restore it on the spot, so a cluster of crystals grew from her severed limb...that crystal became a new hand, healing her as if untouched."
Gongsun Ce silently covered his mouth. A nauseating feeling of disgust welled up from deep within his body, followed by a deep-seated anger. He wanted to curse, to destroy, to kill. After understanding the meaning of that sentence, the desire for destruction surged to an unprecedented level.
There was no need for further explanation, everyone understood. The woman’s body was composed of crystals, she was created to fulfill a wish, an artificial life from the Kong Hua Realm.
King Morton sighed heavily: "This is the truth. Everything she knows is real history, but the place she resides in is a small world within the Kong Hua Realm. Her comrades, her hatred, all the time she has fought for so far — it was all to stage a play for that enemy’s satisfaction, deliberately gifting the woman true knowledge just to enjoy her expression of despair when she learned the truth.
And this revenge play has already been staged countless times. The woman’s memory will be wiped again, she will be happy again, fight again, be defeated again, exact revenge again...and then again, supply the true master of this world with despair."
The old king’s face was surprisingly calm: "That man’s wish came true, he successfully witnessed the lowest form of despair in the world. But he didn’t consider that some people can cross the boundary of despair and venture into deeper abyss. So the moment he cheered in mad joy, he saw a pair of blood-red eyes, witnessed the rebirth fire that comes after collapse.
The woman cried out in despair as she stood, and burned her enemy to ashes with her own hands, and after that, she had an entirely new target for her hatred. She hated the Kong Hua Realm, hated the King of Greed, hated all Kings, hated the villains who have caused the world to be in this turmoil. She vowed to destroy everything brought forth by the Constant Law—
Since then, she became the Silent Star disaster, and this is the story of the Silent King."
Everyone fell silent at this point, the fortress plunged into a momentary silence of torment. Gongsun Ce could fully understand the feeling of the Silent King, anyone would go mad if they faced this. He now understood why only the final phase of the Silent Phase was the Breakthrough Skill, how can this phase carry the thought of creating the world?
It was born to destroy the world, to ruin that self-serving Kong Hua Realm. But even if the Silent King emerges from the Kong Hua Realm, there is no happiness, the turmoil outside the Kong Hua Realm due to the battles of the Kings only makes the world more cruel. Of course she would want to destroy everything, there is no place for her in this chaotic, crazy world.
He wiped his glasses, trying to express his viewpoint as calmly as possible, but ultimately could not hold back: "Goddamn this shitshow!"
Orianna trembled: "Holy King... I... I have never felt so disgusted before..."
"I already felt disgust as I climbed the mountain just now, but even then I didn’t think things could get this rotten!" Gongsun Ce cursed, "What kind of wish-come-true world is this? Aren’t artificial lives goddamn human?!"
Mo Yuankai was extraordinarily serious, he spoke slowly: "Ah Ce, this is an unsolvable question. Have you ever thought about if one day your computer, clothes, furniture had thoughts, what would they think?"
"I’ve seen stories of AI rebellion!" Gongsun Ce said impatiently. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
"You know it well, this is a fantasy version of AI rebellion." Mo Yuankai said, "But at the beginning, these AI were not set as ’life’, they were more like high-intelligence NPCs in a game. Can we say it’s wrong to do as we please in a game? The boundary between right and wrong, how should it be set, and who is qualified to set it?
The King of Greed certainly doesn’t have the qualification, and we ourselves even less so. In the highly advanced Eternal Era, no one can provide a real ’solution’, all we can do is lament and feel anger."
Gongsun Ce sighed heavily, he knew his big brother was right, this was a question neither they could involve themselves nor judge. The Spirit Prison Realm of the Fear King is full of false dreams, the King of Greed wants to satisfy real wishes and creates lives that echo those wishes. But the life she created was too real, real enough to have their own thoughts, their own feelings...
When the created and the creator confront head-on, what can the King of Greed say, who wants to redeem all beings? Say I created you only for you to suffer, or say you are born to be lower than other lives?
King Morton seemed to see through his thoughts, shook his head with a bitter smile: "Therefore, she can only defend futilely, how can she fight back? But the King of Greed cannot fulfill the Silent King’s wish because if she herself dies, she cannot satisfy the prayers of others."
This is simply a Faceless God-style tragedy, the merciful mother who wants to protect all beings has become the main cause of creating misfortune. Gongsun Ce knew this tragedy was inevitable, it would eventually emerge, but still couldn’t help but feel injustice for the original Silent King. He held back for a long time before speaking: "It’s so fortunate Alandia that you never created artificial life."
