I write about collapse in my daily life

The memories ended and Kevin came to a special space.

This is a huge cemetery, and the reason for its size is obvious - those buried here are heroes recognized by the world.

And, the same goes for all human beings in this world.

But this world, apart from the endless sand and the monsters searching back and forth in it, is nothing else.

As the philosopher said, if everyone was a hero, how terrible the world would be.

At this time, Kevin finally discovered an uninvited guest.

Then, the perspective shifted to Theresa.

After entering the dream, Theresa found herself in a school full of children playing carefreely.

Theresa understood that this was because the children had similar wishes, which made them have the same dreams.

"But... isn't it too disrespectful to the teachers to have such a dream [of playing to one's heart's content at school]?"

"I know! I've had this dream before!"

Looking at the "Paradise" on the screen, Luo Tianyi's eyes suddenly lit up.

[Kids nowadays are not good enough. How can they only dream of playing in school? Shouldn't they just blow up the school? ]

[What? You also blew up a school in your dream? ]

[How fresh is that? You're talking as if you've never had this dream before?]

[This brings me to a classic song, The sun is shining in the sky~, let’s take the next line. ]

Putting aside the chain chat and childhood memories on the barrage for the time being, Theresa looked at the current state of the dream and felt a little amused at first, then walked towards the group of children.

After a brief contact, Theresa found that these children were having a lot of fun. In a sense, it was really a beautiful dream that no one wanted to disturb.

But Theresa knew very well that if dreams were just dreams, then they would lose their value.

At this moment, she suddenly found that the spaceship drawn by one of the children attracted the attention of many children around. She realized that this might be an opportunity for them to change, so she went up to talk to him.

She told the boy that his drawing was good, but not good enough.

"Huh? Who are you? Are you dissatisfied because I draw better than you?"

"I've seen a lot of comics... ahem, paintings, so I can tell the flaws in your paintings at a glance."

"Isn't he just a few years older than me? What's so great about that? It's childish!"

The little boy said angrily.

This sentence instantly left Theresa speechless and made the audience burst into laughter.

Sure enough, questions about Theresa's age and appearance always make them happy.

Theresa did not continue to argue with the little boy about the age issue, but continued to point out that there was something very important missing in his painting.

The spaceship he drew was copied from an adventure story book.

The protagonist in the story traveled to every country in his spaceship, making everyone in the places he visited remember him and his spaceship.

"That's right, so I have always admired him. I also want to be a great adventurer like him!"

The boy spoke loudly about his dream.

“But there is no you in this painting of yours.”

Theresa stretched out her voice and deliberately spoke in a surprised tone.

"You just copied down his dream exactly as it was, without any [changes] - how can you be a qualified adventurer like that?"

Theresa's words left the boy speechless.

Their argument also attracted the attention of the children around them. Before they knew it, the two of them were surrounded by children who were watching the fun.

One of the little girls seemed to recognize her as her teacher.

Theresa also took the opportunity to tell the children that she was actually the principal of a school.

The little girl also told Theresa what she learned from the argument between Theresa and the little boy.

"You just said... the people in the books are our role models and our goals, but they are not our constraints or our boundaries. A true adventurer will definitely go beyond the footsteps of his predecessors, go higher and further, and let his dreams float to the horizon that no one has ever explored."

------

"Oh my god, this little girl..."

[So this is the legendary top student? ]

【See what it means to be someone else's child! 】

[This little girl is obviously a good candidate for studying philosophy.]

[By the way, isn't Theresa quite good at getting along with children? Even though she has never taught a single class, she is still somewhat of a headmaster.]

[I think this is probably because Theresa looks similar to the children.]

[No, buddy. The cross on your head is quite unique. Can you lend it to me to play with? (funny)]

After the little girl told her experience, Theresa also told the children what a true adventurer is and what human civilization is.

"Then... little teacher, what should we do to become a true adventurer?"

The children asked curiously.

"(Little guy... Teacher... No, I am a calm and mature adult. I cannot argue with a child...)"

While comforting herself in her heart, Theresa told the children that the first step to becoming a true adventurer is to wake up from their dreams.

Because there are many more interesting things hidden in reality than what they can dream of.

The children asked curiously, but Theresa said she didn't know either.

Some children said that Theresa was a liar. Theresa explained that the reason she didn't know was because those things had not yet been created, and those things were now sleeping in the heart of each of them.

"You are full of novel imagination and creativity. Each of you can depict a future that no one has ever seen. Your enthusiasm will make your dreams fly higher and higher. As long as you have the courage to take the first step, and keep looking for and making things that do not exist yet...even if such things are worthless in the eyes of others, you will eventually become a true adventurer."

After all, everything starts from scratch. Without a good foundation, where would the tall buildings come from?

"But without such an attempt, no one else will ever be able to see the colorful, glittering picture you describe."

Chapter 655 So, why do birds fly?

"Something that doesn't exist yet... a scroll... That's right! Not only do I want to draw a spaceship that's even more powerful than the one in the book - I also want to build it myself and fly it into the sky!"

"Wow! That's so cool! I want to build a big spaceship too!"

"Me, me too!"

The children's eyes were shining with hope for the future. They were chattering enthusiastically, and the edges of the dream began to become a little blurry.

It is like dropping a stone into the middle of a lake, creating ripples. Although it is only a small step, there is no doubt that change has quietly occurred.

Looking at the excited children, Theresa smiled with relief.

"Well, that's all I can do. From now on, it depends on your own efforts."

"You can do it. Because... the world is changed because of you."

......

"Theresa looks like a teacher now."

Looking at Theresa's performance in the game, Luo Tianyi also felt a little emotional.

"After all, she is a mature adult, the principal of St. Freya's school."

But, although your mind is indeed mature, shouldn't your body also develop a little bit?

The news of Theresa's fall had been out for such a long time, but when he traveled through time, there was no sign of her actual installation.

In this regard, Luo Yu really wanted to say to the group of bar dance planners: Don’t think about your Martian girl!

Move out more old things, maybe you can continue to breathe a sigh of relief!

At this moment, the game's perspective suddenly returned to Kevin.

Previously, after he discovered that Theresa had invaded the space of the Stigmata Project, he followed her shadow into the dream.

Players originally thought that Kevin and Theresa would meet next, but his memories with the philosopher did flash across the game.

But this time, the philosopher was about to die.

Kevin listened to every one of his speeches, thought about the questions raised, and came up with his own answers.

And when the other person's life was about to reach the end, he also wanted to know, as the pinnacle of human wisdom in the past hundred years, what answer could the other person give?

Why do birds fly?

The philosopher answered this way, because the bird wants to fly into the sky.

But Kevin doesn't think so, because he has never been able to do something just because he wanted to.

"So...what do you think?"

The philosopher asked back.

"Because they have to fly up into the sky."

This was about three thousand years before Kevin obtained the power of the end, but by then he had already given his answer.

"When the doomsday meteorite falls in the Cretaceous, only free birds can escape their inevitable demise."

The dying philosopher couldn't understand what Kevin was saying, but he could see that Kevin seemed to believe that the dead survived, that the ending would be the touchstone of everything, and that victory was the axiom of justice.

So, before he died, he decided to give one last speech for Kevin.

"I will tell you about a man named Ikaros, and let you know that...some people fly just to fall."

[Wow, this philosopher is amazing. Kevin actually remembered what he said for so long.]

[No matter how you put it, it was the pinnacle of human intelligence at that time. How could it be bad? ]

[Indeed, in terms of wisdom, this philosopher is definitely not bad. The only thing he is not good at is probably that he was born in the wrong era.]

[Yes, his vision is ultimately limited by the times. But some truths cannot be bound by the times.]

[Icarus... Now it is certain that Kevin is the 'Icarus', and his 'flying' is destined to fall. ]

[Kevin's answer also makes sense. They really 'must' fly into the sky, because once they stop, the wave called collapse will swallow them up.]

[Essentially, their answers are all correct. It's just because of their different positions and philosophies that their answers are different. Just like Kiana and Kevin now.]

[I understand a little bit. Strictly speaking, the people of the current civilization have never experienced failure. The biggest collapse disaster they have suffered so far is still the second collapse. So they still have hope. Of course, this is indeed what Alicia wants to see and the development she is looking forward to.

But Kevin is different. He has already failed once, so he is more anxious than anyone else when facing the collapse, because he doesn't want the tragedy to happen again. 】

[Kevin knew from the beginning that he was a loser, so he hoped that someone would trample on his ideals and make him the bird that was doomed to fall, so that the successor could fly over his corpse and fly higher! ]

[I think Kevin now understands what the philosopher said. But it is also because of this that he must stick to his responsibilities and test whether the later generations can surpass the heights he once reached.]

[So in the end, this is still a battle of ideas.]

[But then again, this philosopher is about to die, so there should be no more memories of Kevin and him, right? So, does this mean that Kevin will meet Theresa soon? ]

In fact, it was almost the same. Kevin followed Theresa's shadow to the school she had been to, but fortunately Theresa had already left.

This made the audience feel relieved that they didn't encounter it right away.

The plan hasn't been completed yet. If we encounter this, won't it be game over?

And Kevin also noticed that [Creation] appeared here that shouldn't have appeared.

After coming into contact with the children who were trying to build the spaceship, Kevin understood what Theresa was doing here.

She allowed them to gain [thoughts] and gave them the opportunity to change.

“(But whether they can finally break through this dream still depends on themselves. Do you really believe that these ordinary people have the ability and obsession to change the world?)”

"(...No, it is precisely because of your belief that you tried your best to leave such guidance for them.)"

【You have to do it yourself, otherwise, it's all meaningless. 】

Kevin's shadow continued to seep into Adam's mind, and dreams that should not have appeared kept flashing back.

Kevin saw the last conversation between himself and the philosopher.
