"Emotions are the biggest obstacle for humans, as is so-called faith." The cold voice of the Insect God sounded beside Beiyuan Kong's ears, "This is what I can reveal."

Beiyuan Kong tried hard to suppress his emotions, and after a while he said in a deep voice: "Are you afraid?"

Jenny nodded honestly, "Correctly understand, civilization disappears every second in the universe, but every intelligent individual tries to resist. I represent the entire race's civilization, and I hope that I can continue. I have evolved for hundreds of millions of years, while the evolutionary history of humans is only millions of years."

"You exist in every plane. You control all laws and plunder everything... You are weak and powerful. You are in a state of semi-extinction."

Jenny's tone suddenly became extremely cold, revealing a kind of determination and a strange emotion?

"Human individual Kitahara Sora. You belong to the human race, but you do not belong to them. A creature, an individual, a civilization, is unwilling to perish."

Hearing the other party's pleading tone, Kitahara Sora suddenly felt cold sweat all over his back.

This ancient creature that is so powerful, so wise, so intelligent, and whose frown can instantly destroy his spirit and cause his immediate death, is actually begging him!

"Any intelligent life should be respected..."

Kitahara Sora repeated this sentence softly, and then asked with some difficulty: "You are asking me to save your civilization by destroying the human civilization of this world, because as long as they exist, they will definitely destroy you, but the irony is that your civilization also originated from humans."

He took a deep breath, and after several seconds he slowly said, "Are you telling me... that I, the 'Observer', could have been created by humans?"

"An incomprehensible civilization, an incomprehensible creation, an existence beyond the biological level." The Insect God incarnation shook his head slowly, "An individual beyond my understanding and cognition. Because you are standing here, you may have a close connection with humans."

Kitahara Sora nodded slowly, denying his own assumption of taking things out of context, and carefully examined the information revealed by the Insect God.

It has been telling itself that although you, Beiyuan Kong, are a human being, you have nothing to do with the humans in this world. You do not belong to their collective. You can choose to "betray" without scruples. It hopes to get help.

It took hundreds of millions of years for it to evolve into a highly intelligent life form, while human technology has become so advanced in just two or three million years. Therefore, there must be something controlling humans, and the rapid rise of humans may be inevitable.

It says that humans do not belong on Earth.

In his previous life, Kitahara Sora also saw various information from various channels and learned that there was indeed a gap in human evolutionary history, which scientists still cannot accurately explain.

Because they didn't find any information about that lost history, humans may not really be a native species on Earth.

At this moment, Beiyuan Kong finally understood why the Insect God was afraid. Its original intention of waking up might be because of curiosity, desire for knowledge, and desire for the secret of evolution.

But after truly understanding and thinking, that desire and curiosity turns into an instinctive fear of living things. It is not the fear of being destroyed itself, but the fear of the future.

Because everything behind this seems to be controlled by an invisible hand, and it seems that except for the human race, all civilizations are excluded... and humans seem to be "playthings" in their hands.

"Even so, you want to continue, right?"

“The evolution of organisms is instinctive, and the desire for intelligent thinking is endless.”

The incarnation of the God of Insects floated in front of Bei Yuankong, "The 'Klandaf' humans named this galaxy, and the 'Zerg' humans named us. Dirty, inferior, ugly, horrible, disgusting, inferior... Humans have given us many names. After absorbing many words, it took me a long time to truly understand their meaning."

"They gathered a series of words here, and after destroying them, they satisfied and pleased their own minds. They called them 'justice' and 'goodness'."

"My creations killed their human race and ate their bodies to convert them into biological energy. As a result, humans developed an emotion called hatred."

"The Clandaf people don't understand what 'hatred' is. Except for special individuals, I haven't instilled the ability to think independently in their genes. I can understand 'hatred', but I refuse to understand 'hatred'."

"In human cognition, our actions are considered 'defense', 'protecting the country', and 'honor'. Humans were the first to provoke the war, but they hate us. We passively resisted, but we did not hate humans."

Jenny actually sighed in a human way and looked at Kitahara Sora with complicated eyes, "I can accept peace, but humans cannot accept peace, so we can only destroy them."

"Only one of the two can exist, Clandaff or human civilization. Clandaff civilization originated from humans, but they are actually two different species. Over the course of tens of millions of years, they have also separated from humans."

"I... am also human."

Kitahara Sora felt his mood up and down, and an indescribable feeling spread in his heart.

Can you understand an elephant asking an ant for help? It's probably this sense of disparity. Is it really a bug? When a bug has intelligence that is equal to or even surpasses that of humans, is it already transcendent?

Or is this what Buddhism means by equality of all beings?

At least Beiyuan Kong can no longer simply regard it as a bug, or a bug god. At this moment, it has been placed on the same level, not in terms of species and power, but in terms of thinking.

In the movie, although this insect is intelligent, even its communication is intermittent. In the movie, the Zerg is an inferior race, without civilization and advanced thinking. The plot is full of bugs. The whole movie is actually a satire in the guise of science fiction.

But here, once the Zerg were labeled as civilized, everything was different. At least after a simple exchange, Beiyuan Kong felt that he was almost convinced by the Zerg God, not to mention trying to convince him.

People used emotion and reason to persuade him, and all kinds of reasons could not be refuted. The Insect God even digested the incomplete fragments of information and revealed his own guesses and reasonings without reservation.

"Individual Beiyuan Kong, you are indeed a human, but Blair is also a human. The biggest flaw of humans is that all individual thoughts are independent, so they need constraints, ideological constraints."

Jenny explained seriously: "Sense of morality, sense of guilt, sense of honor... they assimilate individual thinking into the collective. Since belief and thinking need to be unified, but individuals exist independently, this is the contradiction of evolution."

After Jenny finished speaking, she fell silent.

But Kitahara Sora thought about this seriously, and after a while he hesitated and said, "When an individual breaks this contradiction, will it bring bad consequences to the group?"

It is like this, humans have individual thinking, but as long as individual thinking exists, the idea of ​​"selfishness" must be deeply rooted, and when strong emotions are released, they will break the rules.

It’s like the human race collectively covered that city with destructive weapons for the greater good of the future.

Blair destroyed the most precious thing in his life because of the belief he was protecting. So the things that bound him were broken free and he chose to betray.

His behavior is a betrayal of the collective for his own sake. In other words, more than 90% of the crimes in the world are motivated by one's own desires.

From a human perspective, such behavior is immoral and unjust, and humans need to use these two words to restrain individuals.

This confirms what the Insect God just said. This is a point of conflict. Since constraints are needed to keep society and civilization stable, why should all individuals be able to think?

That's not right. This is a fundamental logical error. If, like insects, only a small number of "brain worms" have intelligence, then the brain worms will also betray. As long as they have the ability to think independently, there is a possibility of betrayal.

The constraints of the Zerg are also engraved in their DNA, while humans are only mentally constrained! Here, Beiyuan Kong suddenly thought of the words of the aliens in the previous game.

'Kaito hates me. He can kill his biological parents without batting an eyelid, but he can't kill me because I transformed him, I created him...Tsuka has long wanted to kill Kaito, but she can't do it.'

Thinking of this, Kitahara Kong suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and he remembered Blair's last words before he died.

'We are different from them, we are the same kind of people... people like us who don't care about anything about ourselves.'

'I see in your eyes what I once abandoned...'

What is the thing that Blair abandoned but I still hold on to? It is the "justice" in my heart. Is it selfish not to care about anything about myself?

Don't care about anything about yourself?

Because we have lost something before, we cherish it even more and can give up everything for what belongs to us.

To me now, Yukino is everything to me, and now I am in the same dangerous world with her.

So she can do anything for herself, including betraying her beliefs, abandoning morals, and breaking the spiritual constraints of mankind, because she has replaced any of her own beliefs and become her own spiritual pillar.

In his own mind, the snow is his own property, so this is also a manifestation of selfishness.

'You will be defeated by justice... Never trust humans, or you will lose miserably... You chose the wrong allies from the beginning.'

...Because it is not time to make a decision yet, the things that Blair has abandoned will be firmly held in his hands.

'Be careful with that ancient thing.'

Kitahara Sora took a deep breath and stared at the incarnation of the Insect God intently. He felt the strong sense of oppression coming again. He turned off the communication headset and completely cut off contact with Yukino.

This intelligent, ancient and powerful creature that cannot lie is using another method to achieve its goal: it is brainwashing itself.

"I remember that humans once destroyed two planets with life. One planet was destroyed with a nuclear bomb, and the other was directly blasted to pieces with a weapon called a 'planet bomb'."

"So I need your help."

Jenny nodded. "My creations are attacking the Earth. You need to return to the Earth and destroy or detonate them. You have already gained their trust. Humans cannot refuse the temptation of the Evolvers."

Kitahara Sora hummed, then said softly: "You succeeded in convincing me, but you made one mistake."

Jenny blinked, looking puzzled.

"It's not me you need to convince, but the woman in space. She is different from me because everything I have is very simple. Except for what I have now, everything else I once had is lost. I am like Blair."

"She may be racking her brains to figure out how to eliminate you. It is impossible for her to regard you as her 'same kind' and stand on your side."

"Although she will execute my orders now, I will not give orders. If it is her standing in front of you and me in space, then I will assist you without hesitation."

"The meaning is unknown."

Don't you understand? Kitahara Sora sighed slowly, this is why I turned off the communication with you, because I don't want Xue No to hear our communication.

“It’s okay if you don’t understand, but how will you respond if I say no?”

"It's not me who is threatening you, human." Jenny's voice suddenly became sharp. "It won't take three seconds to destroy your mind. And the rules that control you will not interfere with your death."

"Understood."

Kitahara Sora nodded, "This is why you are so fearless. With 500,000 people as hostages, the Earth will not destroy this planet directly unless it is absolutely necessary."

"You can kill me at any time, but you won't. After I die, the human female individual in space will lose control. She will definitely hate you. I am your last trump card. From now on, she has become your tool."

"If you don't kill me, I will be regarded as a threat by humans sooner or later, and the worst result will be death. So you are forcing my companion in space to make a choice, and you don't even give her much time."

"After all, your tribe is attacking the Earth. They may be able to hold their line, but they may not be able to resist your attack. In their eyes, only killing you can completely end the war. But there are 50 hostages and I am a temptation. You have figured out the human mindset..."

"In fact, you know, our mission is to end this conflict. Even a temporary peace may lead to our mission being completed and leaving."

Beiyuan Kong had a complicated expression. His eyes passed over Jenny's face and looked at the huge and ferocious insect god behind him.

"You don't want a short and false peace, because you have been exposed and cannot move, so you must eliminate humans. After all, humans are cunning and have developed a habit of going back on their words... The temptation of the unknown, the thirst for knowledge, intelligent life, you should not show up."

"Choose, refuse?"

"Reject? I really want to agree, but you overestimate what constrains humans, and underestimate the power of so-called individual thinking and beliefs. Not everyone will become Blair when forced into a desperate situation..."

"There is a kind of people we call 'saints' with great love in their hearts. After all, you are not a human being. Ah, I am not talking about my companions in space, but a special individual among humans."

The giant in front of her made it clear what the relationships were among the Izumo team. Yukino would definitely not let Kitahara Sora die, so she would definitely take action. Perhaps just now, Yukino was still having a fierce ideological struggle.

But what it doesn't know is that humans will transform all negativity into positives for the sake of collective interests, because from the perspective of the ethnic group, everything is positive.

The Insect God wouldn't understand, and neither would the silly girl Yukino. It had nothing to do with the fact that she ignored the mad Sugo Nobuyuki and let the Marshal know that they would eventually leave. That only strengthened their plan.

In fact, when Yukino hesitated and when the marshal contacted her again, the opportunity had already been missed.

Colonel Chu is an artificial human. Except for a bloodthirsty pervert, no normal human can ever become as wise as him.

Just like liking to eat apples, the little boy named Xiao would be horrified by the fact that Colonel Chu used 20 innocent American soldiers as pawns to achieve his goal. He would not think in that direction at all.

He didn't lose because of his IQ, but because of his humanity.

"The female individual in space is not the same as me and Blair. I don't know if she can become 'us', but I don't want her to become 'us' after all."

"Wrong, wrong decision."

Jenny's expression gradually became distorted, the silent huge limbs began to tremble, and the earth-shaking rumbling sound swept across again.

"It seems that you finally understand human emotions, not just 'fear' but also 'anger'."

Beiyuan Kong's eyes became deep, and his tone was a little sad. "She hopes that I am safe, and I also hope that she is alive. No matter how high you guide my thinking to, and how hard you try to mislead me and exclude me from the group, I am still a 'common man'."

"Perhaps I shouldn't have come closer... I shouldn't have come over. I can't kill you with my own strength. And you know everything about us, but you very despicably blocked our only way to solve the problem. The last thing I should do is to let you know our secrets, and ultimately... the theme of the main quest."

"The fear that comes from the biological level made me surrender... and made me lose my judgment for a short time. I shouldn't have faced you. I seem to have encountered an unsolvable problem."

At this moment, Kitahara Kong suddenly saw a figure out of the corner of his eye. The pretty figure was running towards him, running desperately.

"I think I have figured out how to help you fulfill your wish while protecting my companions. Can you give me a few minutes?"

Beiyuan Kong turned his head to look at the insect god, forcing out a smile that was weirder than crying, "As long as we are on this planet, none of us can escape your control. You know I can't beat you, and the one in space will definitely be forced into submission by you, and her small dark room is only the size of a small town, so it can't hold you. So what are you worried about?"

Jenny frowned as if in deep thought, then nodded slightly, "You have three minutes."

2.0 Chapter 8.6 Guardian Blade ( Revised Version K)

After getting the permission from the Insect God, Kitahara Sora nodded slowly, jumped off the spikes, and slowly walked towards Hui.

The girl was completely covered in black. Her pure white assassin outfit was burned by the residual flames of the insect nest. Half of her cloak and hood had disappeared. There was a red mark on her cheek, and even her smooth bangs were burnt.

She looked like a kitten rescued from a fire, making people feel both embarrassed and distressed.

The two people at this moment formed a sharp contrast, one was neither hurried nor slow, while the other was running very fast. From the side, it looked like a beautiful shot in a movie.

When they met, the girl threw herself into the other's arms like a jade swallow.

"You're in such a mess, Hui." Kitahara Sora rubbed the girl's head with concern and said softly, "The scars on an assassin's body are a shame, not to mention the disfigurement."

"Is it a shame?" Hui raised his head and showed a puzzled look, "Anyway, I'm a rookie. I'm not an assassin, I'm a thief."

"You've also learned to sophistry?" Kitahara Sora's eyes softened, "Who did you learn from, Yukino or Suzune?"

"Now is not the time to talk about this, Senior." Hui shook his head slowly, looking past Kitahara Sora to the insect god behind him, and hesitantly said: "So you are here to say goodbye to me?"

"What are you doing here? Why don't you stay in Silent Hill? It's dangerous to show up without knowing the outside world."

"I don't know, I feel like you're more dangerous..."

Hui tilted her head expressionlessly, "Girls' sixth sense... You haven't answered my question yet. What happened to everyone? Why did you face it alone? Why didn't it attack you? Have you reached a reconciliation?"
