Anime Crossover: Unparalleled Comprehension, Shocking the Star God

Of course, this is on the premise that he can actually understand the knowledge in these books.

After the global locust plague, the Venerable Master Bodhidharma stopped calculating the answers to the universe. Some believe that this star god gave up, while others believe that this star god had unlocked the truth of the universe.

If the latter rumor is true, then this library must contain enough knowledge to explain the entire universe.

Calling it an omniscient and omnipotent collection of information is not unreasonable.

Of course, Su Mo did not believe that this was a possibility.

If the Venerable Master truly understood the truth of the universe, truly unraveled the mystery of all things, and truly reached the realm of omniscience...

Then He has no need to continue training the messenger, no need to continue serving as the star god, and no need to meet with Himself.

Omniscience is not a realm that can be reached so easily.

Moreover, the idea that all truths can be exhausted by calculation alone is not necessarily tenable.

Thinking this, Su Mo and Fan Lou surveyed their surroundings, ignoring one treasure of knowledge after another that could drive the entire universe mad, and finally stopped in front of an old man.

He was a blind old man wearing sunglasses and leaning on a cane. He looked ordinary, like any other organic human being that could be found anywhere.

However, Su Mo and Fan Lou exchanged a glance, stopped in their tracks, and almost immediately understood the old man's identity.

Although no mechanical structure or unusual aura can be seen, the only one who could appear here at this time is the Star God of Wisdom and Destiny—the Venerable Bo Shi.

“Every visitor asks their biggest question.”

The seemingly blind old man keenly sensed their arrival. He spoke slowly, his tone weathered yet calm.

He was referring to the library's rules.

Whether they are geniuses recognized by Him or guests who embark on the path of "opening their eyes" and come to pay homage to Him, they are all entitled to ask the Venerable Master a question.

Bo Shizun would not provide any answer to this question.

He will only help the other person to better explore the problem, sometimes by reconstructing the problem, sometimes by giving the other person auxiliary tools. In whatever way, the grace of the All-Knowing One is a precious opportunity that can open the eyes of even the most ignorant person.

Therefore, the path to seeking an audience with the Venerable Sirius is also known as the path to opening one's eyes.

In fact, this statement does not need to be repeated.

Because only those who can clearly identify their own problems and know the biggest puzzle they face can find the door to the puzzle and use the key of wisdom to find their way here.

Now, facing the arrival of Su Mo and Fan Lou, Bo Shizun adopted the same procedure as he had used for other geniuses.

Su Mo had no objection to this.

He patted Fanlou on the head, signaling the young goddess Ming to speak first.

Fan Lou was slightly taken aback. Su Mo had brought her in, and she hadn't really thought about asking anything.

After exchanging a glance with Su Mo, she did not refuse.

Taking a half step forward, the adorable young goddess stared at the old man in front of her, tilted her head, and asked the most common question, yet one that no one had ever asked before.

"who are you?"

These words made the already quiet library even quieter.

If anyone else had witnessed this scene, they would have been heartbroken and unable to breathe.

Even someone as proud as Black Tower would think that Fanlou's question was a complete waste of opportunity.

What a joke! Even the Black Tower only has two opportunities to meet the Star God. This is an opportunity that people all over the universe risk their lives for, and you're asking such a stupid question?

They've already come face to face with the Star God himself, and they're still asking him who he is... This is more like a provocation than idiocy.

Aren't you afraid that the learned scholar will expose you directly?

Only Su Mo didn't find it strange. Since he had allowed Fanlou to ask questions, he naturally had expected this situation.

It's important to emphasize here that Su Mo's expectation was not to give up the opportunity to ask questions; on the contrary, he had high expectations for Fanlou's questions.

In fact, Fanlou's performance did not disappoint Su Mo's expectations.

Although she was not talkative, she was intelligent enough to have already learned a large part of the knowledge about this world from the machine network, so how could she not know who the person in front of her was?

But she still chose to ask this question, both out of a primal curiosity and to express her doubt about what was before her.

Su Mo patted Fan Lou's little head with satisfaction, then looked at Bo Shi Zun.

"..."

The learned man remained silent.

With his computational abilities, he could analyze the general situation of the two people simply from the various force fields they emitted.

But He truly could not answer Fanlou's question.

A dozen seconds later, Bo Shizun spoke to Fanlou.

"You are special."

Upon hearing this, Fanlou blinked, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

"Who am I?"

She once again posed the ultimate philosophical question.

"..."

Bo Shizun fell silent again.

His silence was deafening.

If someone saw this scene, they would probably doubt their own eyes.

How could there possibly be a Star God who would be silenced by a little girl's questioning?

However, what we are seeing is indeed the truth.

If Black Tower and the others saw this, they would immediately accept the situation after the initial surprise.

The Star Gods are highly condensed philosophical concepts, but this does not mean that they have solved all philosophical problems.

In reality, the only advanced aspect of the Star Iron Universe is its technology. In the realm of philosophy, problems that existed during the Enlightenment era remain unresolved.

Philosophy incubates theology, theology incubates science, and science attempts to solve everything with methodology, but so far, it has not succeeded in doing so.

Su Mo looked at Bo Shizun with great interest, waiting for his reaction.

After a long silence, the Venerable Master spoke.

"I am the one who asks all the answers, and you are the one who asks all the questions."

This statement emphasizes both the concepts of the two parties and answers the question of the sail tower.

Although this answer seemed to downplay the main point, at this moment, Su Mo had something more to care about than nitpicking.

"Didn't you say you only give questions, not answers?"

Why did they give such a perfunctory answer this time?

In response to Su Mo's question, Bo Shizun answered with utmost calmness.

"Because she is special."

Bo Shizun, however, paid great attention to Fanlou, which was largely ignored by Ruan Mei and Hei Ta.

"Of course she's special."

Su Mo naturally understood what the learned man meant.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought Fanlou to this world on purpose.

"As someone who doubts everything, the skepticism this child represents precedes the epistemology you represent."

"So, I'm curious about one thing—before analyzing everything and finding the ultimate answer to the universe, have you really confirmed that this answer truly exists?"

"Haven't you ever doubted that the universe itself is just an illusion, and that your existence is nothing more than a simulated character in a game?"

In just a few words, Su Mo directly posed a dangerous question, the question itself even subtly implying a denial of the path to enlightenment.

If it were a different, more short-tempered Star God, it wouldn't be impossible for them to take action against Su Mo.

In a sense, the essence of Fanlou is the nemesis of the concept of broad knowledge and noble destiny.

As a star god, the original purpose of the Venerable One was to understand all things through logic and calculation, thereby revealing the ultimate truth of the universe.

If he can successfully achieve this and unlock all the mysteries of the universe, the Venerable One will be able to directly break through the realm of omniscience and become an omniscient and omnipotent being.

For the vast majority of scientists, the existence of Bosch is the greatest guide on the path of science, and the development of the entire scientific community is almost entirely based on Bosch's theoretical foundation.

 …

Almost everyone agrees that the truth of the universe can be obtained through logic, reason, and calculation.

In fact, the flourishing development of the scientific community to date has been a testament to the validity of this proposition.

However, with the flourishing development of epistemology and methodology, the shadow of skepticism has also been growing in the shadows.

Even according to pure logical theory, before seeking the truth of the universe and understanding all things, we must establish a premise: that the world can be known, that the universe truly contains truth, and that reason can explain everything.

If we take this premise a step further, it leads to the previously mentioned philosophical question of eternity.

Cognition is bidirectional. If the world can be cognized, then by whom? If it is me, then how can I be sure of my existence?

The learned scholar was determined to unravel the mystery of all things and to solve the equation known as the problem of the universe.

Fanlou's doubts even predate the solution; she questions the problem itself.

More than solving problems, she is concerned with whether the universe exists and whether the self exists.

And this is the essence of the God of Doubt.

Hearing Su Mo's question, the Learned One was not angry. In fact, he had no intention of being angry. Using logic and calculation to solve all problems was the essence of his destiny.

Having a thorough understanding of all the information about civilizations in the entire universe, he was probably the one who could best understand the meaning of Su Mo's words.

So he quickly gave a reply.

"The brain-in-a-vat hypothesis cannot be falsified, and therefore it is meaningless."

The brain-in-a-vat hypothesis suggests that everything an individual experiences is a simulation of signals, and that the world itself does not actually exist, but is merely a dream created by the brain immersed in a solution.

The brain immersed in the jar cannot wake itself up. Even if it were to suddenly wake up, no one can guarantee that it is not a second layer of dream. Therefore, this hypothesis can never be disproven and can only become a topic of conversation over tea.
