This is outrageous!
But then he thought of something else: why did the Great King of Extinction dare to touch him?
As if seeing through his thoughtful expression, Snail Gum added a comment.
"Mr. Lin Si".
His voice was steady, carrying a seriousness that indicated "this matter is indeed worth noting."
"I can see that you are in a certain situation, so I dare not make a move against you."
"But if this being harbors ill intentions towards you, it will try to make you stray from your original intentions."
He paused for a moment,
"Addendum: Deviating from the original intention has extremely serious consequences."
"You should be careful when making any choices about your original aspirations in the future."
Lin Si nodded thoughtfully.
He suddenly remembered something.
On the day the illusion invaded his consciousness, Lord Snow Robe took out that illusion's clone and said that the clone's energy had been completely exhausted.
Even now, he still doesn't understand how the power of the illusion was consumed.
But if you put the words of these geniuses together, he does have some clue.
It's possible that those star gods provided him with some protection, but he just didn't know it.
When the Great Lord of Annihilation invaded later, none of them dared to attack him directly like Huanlong did.
Instead, he went to cause trouble for General Jingyuan.
Indirectly cause him trouble.
"Ok."
He snapped out of his thoughts and turned his gaze back to the Black Tower.
"So you mean all I have to do is be next to Mr. Stephen when you invite the Lord of Silent Ridge, right?"
Black Tower nodded, hands on his hips, his posture conveying a sense of satisfaction that said, "You finally understand."
"That's right, as long as you come too, if we can't beat them..."
She paused for a moment, then her lips curved slightly.
"She just hides behind you, and there's nothing she can do about it!"
Nguyen Mai nodded, as if in agreement with the plan, and added a more specific idea.
"Perhaps we can try to make an emergency connection device."
She held her teacup, her tone remaining calm.
"At that time, we will arrive at Mr. Lin Si's side instantly."
Black Tower's eyes lit up.
"good idea!"
Lin Si: "........."
He sat in his wheelchair, watching the group of geniuses earnestly discussing "how to use him as a safety shield," and remained silent for a moment.
I pulled him to my side.
This group of geniuses actually thought of using him, a disabled person without any destiny energy, as a meat shield, right?
"Mr. Lin Si".
The screw made a clicking sound.
He tilted his head slightly.
"We've discussed the understanding of order and justice before."
He paused, as if checking whether his next words were appropriate.
"However, I was wondering if we could also invite Black Tower, Ruan Mei, and Stephen to listen?"
"After all, order and justice are not just a matter between you and me."
Lin Si paused for a moment, then smiled.
"Of course."
Black Tower raised an eyebrow, seemingly surprised, but did not refuse.
"Since I'm just killing time anyway, I might as well listen."
Nguyen Mai, holding her teacup, nodded slightly.
“I am indeed curious about Mr. Lin Si’s understanding of these concepts.”
Stephen's phantom hesitated for a moment, then nodded, his voice carrying a hint of expectation that "I'm glad I can just sit in on this."
"Um... if it won't bother you."
Luo Si Gumu turned back to Lin Si, his voice steady.
"Mr. Lin Si, in your vision, how should the global system develop?"
Lin Si leaned back in her wheelchair, tapping her fingers lightly on the armrest, as if she were reorganizing her thoughts that had been accumulating for a long time.
"In this universe, there are countless civilizations and countless social forms."
"But in my understanding..."
His voice was steady, as if he were recounting something he had been thinking about for many years.
“A system that can truly last, be stable, and remain vibrant.”
"It should be based on the common interests of all individuals."
He paused for a moment,
"Within the framework of collective ownership of the means of production, based on distribution according to need, and with the aim of eliminating all injustices such as class, gender, and race."
"To enable everyone to contribute according to their abilities and to obtain according to their needs."
He glanced at Nguyen Mai, then at the Black Tower, and then added a sentence.
"This is probably the thing that the world is most lacking right now."
"While a credit point system can certainly make civilization more efficient, when the accumulation of credit points becomes the sole purpose, the system will be distorted into a tool to protect the interests of a minority."
Heita pinched his chin, remaining silent.
She seemed to be carefully savoring the weight of the words, and then rearranging them within her own cognitive framework.
Ruan Mei held her teacup, her gaze lingering on Lin Si for a moment, as if she were placing these words alongside the theories about ideal societies that she had studied.
Stephen's phantom tilted its head, as if trying to understand the permutations and combinations of words.
Screw Gum nodded, his voice carrying a seriousness that said, 'This is indeed a direction.'
"So, in your vision, how could such a system be implemented?"
Lin Si smiled, as if she had anticipated this question.
"First, we must eliminate hunger."
"This is not a metaphor; it is the literal meaning of eliminating hunger."
"If a person can't even get enough to eat, all his choices will be tied to survival."
"When everyone has enough to eat, intelligent life will naturally begin to think about things in the long term."
"Start thinking about fairness, start thinking about meaning, start thinking..."
"What kind of world do they want?"
He paused for a moment, then chuckled.
"Morality is not a pre-existing standard of sainthood."
"Not everyone is as selfless and talented as Lil."
"Therefore, we can only use material conditions to change people's social relations, their concepts, and their level of thinking."
"It is not through education that human nature is transformed, but through the real environment that people are shaped."
"After that, the second goal is..."
"Everyone has the right to pursue their own freedom..."
Chapter 433 The spiritual will of the group is elevated, dissolving nothingness?
"Of course, this freedom doesn't mean I can do whatever I want."
He stretched out his finger and shook it gently.
"Instead, I won't do what I don't want to do."
He paused, as if confirming the accuracy of the statement.
"Individual freedom cannot infringe upon the rights of others, and people's choices must still be subject to objective social conditions."
"You cannot ignore social realities and endlessly demand resources."
Black Tower's eyebrows twitched slightly, but he remained silent. Ruan Mei held her teacup, her gaze lowered for a moment, as if savoring the weight of that statement.
"Freedom is not about being free from labor, but about no longer being forced to work for survival and being able to choose the content of one's labor."
"Labor begins in childhood, and is carried out by children."
Stephen's phantom leaned forward slightly, as if listening intently, or perhaps to confirm whether he understood the connection between the words.
"You can delve into science, create art, participate in social development, or simply clear your mind and think."
He lowered his hand and smiled.
"Freedom is the freedom to choose."
The office fell silent for a moment, as if to allow the words to reach everyone's ears.
Screw Gum's metallic pupils flickered slightly, as if processing the weight of this concept internally.
His voice carried a serious tone, as if he needed to confirm that the logic was closed.
“Mr. Lin Si, if all material needs are met.”
Will intelligent life lose its motivation to strive?
Lin Si did not answer immediately upon hearing this.
He seemed to be seriously considering every aspect of the problem, then he shook his head, his tone resolute.
"A small number of people may lose motivation, but most people will not."
He leaned back in his chair, relaxed.
“Mr. Screw Goom, intelligent life naturally possesses the instinct to seek knowledge, create, explore, transform the world, and gain recognition.”
"Many people who don't need to earn money through this job still pursue science, painting, writing novels, modifying machinery, studying philosophy, and participating in public affairs."
"What drives them is not credit points, but curiosity, interest, and the desire to create."
"And the desire to make the world a better place."
He looked at the four geniuses, smiled, as if to say, "Aren't you the best examples?"
"Just like the four of you, the rules of the world cannot bind you."
"But what made you four decide to continue your scientific research?"
Snail Gum was silent for a moment.
His gaze lowered slightly, as if he were pondering the question.
Then he looked up, his voice carrying a sense of realization that "I understand now."
"so it is!"
