All living beings in hell

Chapter 184 - The Starfish Who Wants to Conquer the Ocean

The lotus lantern at the entrance was lit up, and the office welcomed the 140th customer.

The sound of heavy and sticky breathing came from the door, which made people think of a critically ill tuberculosis patient.

A huge starfish walked into the office, and the five tentacles of the starfish were densely packed with small suction cups.The outermost layer of skin is blue, and the inner part is yellower, and the closer to the center, the softer pink.The starfish came to the wooden table in a very weird way of walking on two legs, as if learning the way of human movement.

"My lord, my lord writing, hello, hello." Hai Xing spoke repetitively and intermittently, as if he was not very familiar with the language structure.

"Hello, what should I call you?"

Starfish moved its huge body in the shape of a five-pointed star, imitating the way humans do, and sank into the wooden chair with a snap.And because of the sudden fall, the center of gravity was unbalanced, and it swayed to one side.Its suction cups gripped the chair and the edge of the wooden table tightly, and then pulled itself back onto the wooden chair, slowly stabilizing, and sat upright.

"KODA, my name is KODA."

"What do you want me for today, Kouda?" I wrote down its name on the paper.

"I want to be a human being, not a starfish anymore."

"Why do you want to be human?"

"Being human can do a lot of the things I want to do."

"Then what do you want to do?"

"I want to hunt marine resources. I've seen people hunt manta rays with metal spears before, a shiny silver spear that shoots out of a cylinder with a bang, The stingray pierced the abdomen of the stingray! This is amazing! The stingray has always been my natural enemy. We change colors and use various camouflage techniques just to escape from the stingray. However, humans can easily Killing a stingray! That's pretty amazing!"

"So after you become a human, you want to hunt devil rays?"

"Not only stingrays! With such weapons, sharks, killer whales, seals, albatrosses! All ferocious predators are no longer my opponents! As long as I have that weapon, I can do whatever I want in the ocean In this way, no other enemy will stop me again!"

Having said this, Kouda laughed triumphantly.The mouth at the center of its torso opened and closed, and the laughter sounded like a tuberculosis patient choking on a big sip of water, making people worry that it would laugh itself out of breath.

"Then what if there are other humans with the same weapons who want to compete with you for territory?"

"Then I'll shoot that man with a spear weapon! Let him taste my strength!"

"What if his weapon is more powerful than yours? I've heard of a weapon called a torpedo. From hundreds of miles away, as long as you lock on to the target and launch it, whoosh, the target can be blown to pieces in an instant. What if the other party uses it What should I do with torpedoes? Your spears can’t be fired hundreds of miles long, and you can only pierce one person at a time. But torpedoes can blow up one piece at a time!”

"Then I'll go grab their torpedoes!"

"What if I can't grab it? I was killed before I couldn't grab it, what should I do?"

"I can definitely get it, why can't I get it!"

"Such a good weapon, everyone must want it. How can you be sure you can get it?"

"I'm sure! I'm sure! As long as you can be a human being, none of this is a problem!"

"Do you know how many people there are in the world right now?"

"Is there a lot of fish in the sea?"

"How many fish have you seen in your lifetime?"

"A lot! There are thousands of anchovies in just one school!"

"The population of a modern city is about 2000 million, that is, the number of anchovies is more than 1, which is almost the population of a modern city."

"Impossible, you are lying. How can there be so many places on land for people to live in!"

"The world's population is now close to 80 billion, which is probably more than the number of small fish you have eaten in your lifetime."

"Then what can it explain!"

"80 billion people, although not everyone wants to conquer the entire ocean with a spear, but there are many humans who want to plunder as many ocean resources as possible. Let's say that 1% of humans are eager to get more Ocean resources are for their own benefit, that is 8000 million people, equivalent to the population of three to four modern cities, will compete with you for the same ocean.

Assuming that the spear is everyone's standard weapon, and everyone is on the same starting line to compete who can catch more stingrays, what do you think the final outcome will be? "

"This... this... In order to obtain more resources, we must kill other humans first!"

"But human laws protect humans from killing each other, so we can only use other methods to compete for limited resources. If it were you, what method would you use?"

"Develop more powerful weapons!"

"Will more ocean resources be plundered by developing more powerful weapons?"

"Develop more powerful weapons, and other humans will know that I am not easy to mess with, and will not come to snatch the stingrays in my territory. In fact, I don't even need to conquer the entire ocean. I just need to be in my favorite sea area. The land is king, just keep this piece of resources!"

"Then what if one day the resources in this area are exhausted? Will you invade other people's territories with weapons to plunder more resources?"

"Of course I will! Otherwise, how would I survive!"

"What about other people? If other people's territory lacks resources, they will also come to plunder your territory. What should we do at this time?"

"Drive them out with powerful weapons!"

"People's energy is very limited, and they need to sleep about 6-8 hours a day. What if your enemy comes to attack you at that time, what should you do?"

"Then...then...then find someone to take care of the territory with me. I will share all the resources of this territory with that person!"

"What would you do if that person thought it was unfair, turned on someone else, and secretly killed you while you were sleeping?"

At this moment, Da Da's panting sound became louder and louder, and its tentacles were even slightly congested with blood, and the original blue part turned purple.

"Humans are such disloyal creatures! Not as good as dolphins!"

"There are loyal humans and treacherous humans, but humans all look the same on the surface, so it's hard to tell the difference."

"How can there be so many things! How can there be so many things!"

"Because you want to conquer the entire ocean! This is a very big project. Since the birth of mankind, there have been so many emperors, so many dynasties, so many countries and civilizations, and no emperor or civilization has ever conquered the entire ocean. Woolen cloth."

"Is this something only a god can do! Poseidon, the god of the sea, once conquered the ocean!"

"In the system of Greek mythology, Poseidon is the god of the sea. In Eastern mythology, we also have the dragon king of the four seas. These gods, the dragon king, do not conquer the ocean. They also live with the ocean, and each protects the peace of one side."

"Then I'll be a dragon king, I just want to protect the safety of one side."

"You don't intend to be a man, you want to be the Dragon King?"

"Can I be the Dragon King?"

"I don't know, can you be the Dragon King?"

The huge starfish in front of him was silent, and its bloodshot tentacles were slowly cooling down: "I feel like I've been tricked."

"How did you get tricked?"

"Before I came to your office, I was full of confidence and felt that I must be a human being. But now I don't want to be a human at all, and I don't know if I can be a dragon king, and I don't want to be a starfish in my next life. I don't want anything now. I no longer know!"

"If you really want to be a human being so much, how can you give up your determination because of my words? There are a lot of rumors like me in human society. I just predicted it in advance."

"What shall I do? What shall I do?"

"If you haven't figured out what to do, just wait. When you find a sufficient reason and motivation, no matter how hard you are hit, you will stick to it. That kind of choice will be more determined."

"Is there really such a thing? No matter what happens, you will continue to do it unswervingly?"

"Maybe there are."

"What kind of thing is that?"

"Anyway, affirmation has nothing to do with conquest and plunder."

"What does that have to do with it?"

"Find it yourself."

"Can I really find it?"

"Not only starfish are looking for such a thing, but many humans are also looking for such a thing."

"If I become a human, can I continue to search? I thought I needed to think clearly before becoming a human."

"It's good to think clearly, but there are too many unexpected things in the world. No matter how carefully you plan, there will always be times when you lose control."

"Sounds like fun."

"If you just go to the world with such an experience mentality, it's actually not bad."

"It seems easier than conquering the ocean."

"It should be a lot easier."

Starfish imitated the appearance of human beings, stood up from the ground with two legs, and bowed to me tremblingly: "I know, I will go to reincarnation the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, then I wish you a good time."

The suction cups on the tentacles left the edge of the wooden table and the wooden chair one by one, and the blood congestion on the starfish's body faded away, returning to its previous blue color.It looked very excited, and the sound of breathing was still as loud as the draft in the undersea tunnel.

"My lord, then I'll go first."

"Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

With its draft-like breathing, the starfish squirmed its limp legs, and twisted step by step to the front door of the office, imitating the way humans open the door with five fingers, the suction cup tightly wraps the door handle, turns, and moves towards the door. Push forward.The wind outside the door carried the smell of leaves into the office, Hai Xing took a deep breath of the air full of green plants, moved his legs, and left the office.
