Chapter 685 Rules of Love
Chapter 685 Rules of Love
"It's over."
Aha showed a standard smile. Apart from the fact that he couldn't show his teeth due to the mask, he was really trying hard to show a kind smile.
Akivalli: "......"
I feel like there should be more private space between gods. For example, would it be normal for you to open your eyes on a train one day and see a mask in front of you?
"You mean the universe is about to end."
"Yup!"
"That's good."
Akivelli's eyes revealed a hint of speechlessness, and he had reason to begin to doubt whether this was some kind of train bombing plan that Aha had come up with.
Aha: “….” Sometimes being a comedian for a long time can be frustrating, but this is also a kind of fun.
"To put it simply, there will be a small problem in the memory bank that will at most lead to the complete destruction of the universe," Aha used speed faster than the speed of light to help Akivali sort out his thoughts.
"Then?"
It’s not that Akivalli didn’t believe Aha, but he had realized a profound truth during his years of dealing with Aha, which was that no matter what he did, he had to wait until the man finished speaking.
"It would be fun if everyone died with the universe, but it would be completely boring if we really died."
Ah Ha also felt that his death would be the greatest pleasure. Although it was very fun, it would be over after the fun was over, and there would be no more fun in the future.
If you think about it, such a future is indeed not good.
"Myth is helping Fu Li collect more memories to ensure that an incomplete reboot can be carried out before the end."
"So... there is a problem with the basic rules and authority of the universe," Akivelli quickly concluded from Aha's words. Something that could make Mystery so anxious must be related to the foundation of the universe.
"I heard that you are going to open up the World Tree?"
Ahhan's distinctive mask raised an eyebrow, his expression showing a rare solemnity, "You also know that 'Tree' also originated from the original rules of the universe, but unlike the memory, the tree is particularly dangerous."
Even if you are a star god, you may disappear completely there, or even disappear without knowing whether you are alive or dead.
"Remembering itself is one of the three rules. Perhaps there is a way in the World Tree to change the future of the universe today," Akivelli naturally understood what Aha originally wanted to say.
At the same time, this must be the common request of Mi Si and Fu Li. The memory collection work over there has become extremely difficult, mainly because the memory life has been reduced by more than half.
Before the end comes, if the preliminary preparations for restarting cannot be completed, the universe will never have a chance to start over again. This is the final eternal end.
Among the star gods, the only one who has the opportunity to touch the original rules of the universe is Akivali, whose destiny is [Exploration]. The power of exploration allows him to reach any corner of the universe.
But Aha's meaning was very clear. Even if you were a pioneering star god, there was no 100% certainty of coming back if you really went to the World Tree. If something really went wrong, it would only make the situation worse.
The Star Gods are not united after all due to various issues. If we lose Akivali, I'm afraid the future will become even more difficult.
"Aha, have you forgotten?"
Akiveli laughed out loud, his eyes always looking into the distance, "My destiny is to explore. Even if I will eventually leave in the future, new pioneers will board the train and head to the distance where no one has ever set foot."
Death is not the end. The will to explore will burn forever like a spark, passed down from generation to generation.
"Why do you have to show that expression?" Akivali seemed to have foreseen everything. "The World Tree is the end that must be crossed on the road of exploration."
“There is no end to exploration, and the same is true for the will to explore.”
Looking at Akivali's back, Aha fell into a long silence, and finally put down the car insurance detonator in his hand. In this atmosphere, even the God of Joy could not say something like "The farewell gift is BOOM~!"
I originally wanted to say goodbye to Akivali in the same way I said to Aha, but it is difficult to press the detonation button now. After all, what He is pursuing is not just fun.
"In the future, I will meet the nameless guests who come after you."
Aha’s eyes seemed to say take care on your journey, and then he turned and left, leaving behind a lonely back.
Only when Akivali could no longer see Aha did he feel relieved. The moment he turned around and prepared to return to the carriage, BOOM! The carriage at the back flew into the sky.
What Aha pursues is indeed not only fun, but also greater fun.
"You're not ready yet. It's not too late to leave after the car is repaired~"
Aha's light voice echoed throughout the universe. Akivilli's mouth twitched violently. He thought that it would still be in time to tear down Aha first and then explore the world tree.
Over the years, Aha has provided great support and contribution to the renovation of the Starry Sky Train. Its most important contribution is to provide a reason for the renovation of the train.
Aha also knew that going to the World Tree might be a one-way journey, but Akivali would still continue to go there, even if the final outcome was disappearance.
But perhaps only guys like this are worthy of the destiny of pioneering.
Aha also didn't want the universe to lack such an interesting star god, but as Akivali said, the will to explore will not disappear, and the spirit of exploration will be inherited by new unknown guests.
By then, He will go and see for Akivalli to see how far the future star train will go.
...
...
The sound of waves hitting the beach is extremely familiar. That is the pure white world that you will enter after each simulation.
It may not be appropriate to call this place a "pure white world" now. After the simulation ended, An Ming finally knew the truth here.
That is the core memory space of the Seed of Rememberance, which stores all the memories of the entire universe. It is also the place where the authority of remembering lies.
The so-called "simulation" is also a reshaping process built on the basis of remembering authority.
When he first came to the Starry Sky Railway world, he did not start at the standard main line rebirth point like the Black Tower Space Station. He could connect with the main line within a few months after opening his eyes.
Yeah...there is no such lucky thing.
The point where he actually traveled through was an unknown amount of time before the main storyline, long enough ago that the entire universe underwent earth-shaking changes.
The slightly cool sea water brushed against his ankles. An Ming raised his head and saw the figure with long silver hair still standing on the pure white beach. There was joy but also a lot of complicated uneasiness in the expression she looked at him.
"Ai... no, you are Mingji," An Ming finally learned the truth about the past. When March 7 was in the immortal boat Luofu, when he was fighting with the illusion in the spiritual world, the person who took over March 7's body was Mingji.
Whether it was the power displayed at that time or the consciousness taken over, they were all responsible for sealing the memories of March 7th's past.
The simulation system and the memory seal of March 7 are actually the authority to remember. It is through the most basic rules of this universe that a system comparable to a miracle can be created.
No wonder the things in the system store are all things I have seen in simulation. After all, with the authority to remember, it is indeed very simple to replicate the objects in memory.
"Just call me Annie."
Annie gently held An Ming's hand, her clear blue eyes filled with many complex emotions, but in the end, all her words turned into a soft sigh from her lips.
Remember... that was indeed his name in the past, or it could be said that it was the name given to him by the universe. It would be better to say that it was not a name at all, but just the meaning of the rules.
"Aini is right. I do... understand love."
Her smile was filled with complex emotions that she had never imagined in the past. If she had heard this at first, it would have seemed absolutely impossible, but love is something that one cannot understand unless one experiences it personally.
Annie left a trace of authority to remember in each of the five anchor points. One of them was to serve as the final insurance for reconstruction. If an accident occurred and was observed by fate, the memory would take back the fragments of Anming's soul.
The second is to let Mingji personally experience the feelings that belong to "people", break away from the vast ocean of memory, and no longer be just a cold bystander.
Let "Remembering" no longer be just an outsider of the eternal years, but personally sink and float in the vortex of emotions called "human beings".
The first anchor point is located in Gramer, the Sky Empire, which is also the node closest to the time of Tethys. The incarnation of remembrance at that time, Aini, was also born in Gramer.
In order to maintain the reshaping without any accidents, she would unconsciously approach An Ming, because that was the core goal engraved deep in her soul instinct, but the more she came in contact with him, the more difficult it would be to extricate herself.
The closer she gets to the warm light, the deeper she will fall. This love that is destined to have no results is like drinking poison to quench thirst. It gives her supreme happiness but also brings unforgettable pain.
This life is too long, so long that it is almost infinite, but we have to carry a memorable and doomed to tragedy love.
She won't even have an epitaph, but she will go and see with her own eyes the tombstones belonging to An Ming.
The monument stands on the ashes. Although it is just a process of reconstruction, An Ming still becomes the brightest sun just like he did in Tethys.
Annie had indeed miscalculated, and she was wrong in a big way.
No matter under which starry sky, no matter in which world... the young man of Tethys cut off the long night with his own hands in just ten years, and Grammer's legend was also forged in the same short period of time.
Legends are not born
But it is made of merit
It was not until An Ming's first reconstruction in Grammer ended in flames and sorrow that Mingji really decided to help Annie complete the plan to save An Ming. It was not entirely because the memories of the Grammer period influenced him, but more because the possibilities contained in An Ming had a value beyond the restart of the universe.
If it was An Ming, maybe... no, he would definitely be able to shatter the end of the universe.
If Grammer's eighteen years could still be analyzed rationally, then the subsequent times, until the immortal boat Luofu, the surging emotions accumulated over several reincarnations completely overwhelmed rational thinking and drowned the girl who once did not know what love was.
The pure white world was given color for the first time after meeting An Ming again and again.
He has accepted the name "Aini" and has felt unbearable mental pain in these "simulations" of passing by and missing each other again and again.
In order to conceal his fate, from the moment An Ming began to reshape himself, he had already connected his own destiny with the "protagonist" of that time. Under such circumstances, all that awaited Annie was repeated misses.
Under the premise that cannot be violated, what awaits Annie is only eternal miss.
Until...now.
Annie would feel scared, scared that An Ming would leave her after knowing everything.
Even at the end of the story, she is still the nameless cold rule, the purest part of the universe.
It is...not worthy of being remembered by humans.
But even so, she will still be here, waiting for a figure that may never come again, waiting for an answer that will never be obtained.
"Aini."
"Yeah... I'm listening," Annie lowered her eyelashes, quietly waiting for the ending that belonged to her.
"Well?!"
The warm touch blocked her words without warning. Aini opened her eyes wide in shock, and met the gentle gaze so close to her.
This gentle kiss was the only answer An Ming gave.
What is important is never the name, but the fact that she has always walked side by side with him through every "simulated" journey at the starting point and end point of countless reincarnations.
Perhaps the former "Mingji" really did not understand what love was, just like she once said to Annie, "I don't understand", she really could not understand what kind of feeling love was.
It was not until I personally experienced that "simulation" again and again, when the memories of those countless encounters, acquaintances, and separations flooded into my mind like a tide, until I could no longer forget every minute and every second of my encounter with An Ming.
Love is indeed not a feeling that can be understood overnight. It is every touch of heart, but it is also a journey that is remembered and never regretted.
Annie knew from the beginning that she was a ripple originating from remembrance. Since she could understand what love was, then remembrance could certainly understand it as well.
Knowing the rules of love will no longer be cold rules, but rules that will violate the laws of the universe itself for the sake of love.
This moment was born because of An Ming, this moment I want to remember.
It must be her memory.
We are born to remember the memories of others, and one day we will find the moment that we want to remember, which belongs to us.
"Aini."
Perhaps in the past she was just "remembering", which was just the purest meaning of the rules.
But at this moment, the girl already knew what love was, and what was beating in her chest was already a truly human heart.
"Aini..."
After parting their lips for a long time, An Ming finally brought up the thing he had always been curious about, "So, those simulated talents were also your idea?"
"When I'm alone, I often look through your memories."
Annie looked a little embarrassed, "That's where the name of the talent came from..."

Good night! ~
