Chapter 556 Killing That Levi
"Hey! Daru!"
Canteen of the advanced training base.
When Adwan Kabuba saw Yang Ming, he immediately stood up and greeted him.
Levi Badoli, who was eating, was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head to swallow the food in his mouth, then smiled and turned to look at the student who ranked first in comprehensive strength in the advanced training base.
Yang Ming's expression seemed somewhat serious, as if there was some kind of low-pressure area surrounding him.
He nodded to Adwan Kabuba, sat down , and said:
"Kabu, please help me get some food. I want to talk to the uncle about something."
"No problem," Edwan smiled with narrowed eyes.
In fact, he had already had a premonition of something. Yang Ming's abnormal behavior in the past half month and the warning sent by Lu were all evidence that something bad was about to happen in the City of Light.
However, Edwang looked at the backs of Yang Ming and Uncle Badoli with some curiosity.
Is there something wrong with Uncle Bardoli?
At the dining table, Yang Ming did not look at the figures around him, near or far. He just sat there quietly, his brain working frantically, thinking and preparing.
Levi didn't say anything.
The two of them fell into a strange silence, attracting the attention of many faculty and students around them.
Adwan Kabuba's movements of serving food to his roommate became a little more leisurely.
Yang Ming suddenly said: "I have communicated with the Fayya people."
"Well," Levi Badoli laughed, "You really have noticed me a long time ago. Since when?"
"The Cosmic Truth Investigation Society."
Yang Ming said calmly:
“I wasn’t completely sure before I talked to the Fayya people. I just had this guess, and then I pretended that I knew the truth and tried it. Unexpectedly, I guessed it right.
“From this result, it can be seen that the Fayya people cannot see our thoughts.
“You tried to explain something to me.
"I know Li is right next to you now, but I'm still not sure whether she wants you to die or live."
Levi smiled and said, "She is also very conflicted. She loves me, but she can no longer bear to continue serving this empire. Moreover, these tens of thousands of galactic years of restraint have caused some abnormalities in her core program. She can no longer hold on."
Yang Ming wondered, "Can I interview him?"
"You said," Levi said, "I am destined to be purged, and I am too tired to live until now from all angles, and I don't have much desire to struggle to survive, but I want to influence you as much as possible before I disappear. You represent some kind of hope."
Yang Ming laughed: "Sorry, it's unlikely that I will really become your student. I have my own path."
"I know, I never expected that," Levi sighed, "You should be able to continue to resonate with the Omnic Twilight, but I can't. In this respect, you are much better than me... Let's interview you."
He picked up the drink and took a sip, feeling the sweetness simulated by the data.
Yang Ming thought about it carefully.
Faya must be watching here, and there are many questions that cannot be asked.
"I want to know, can reason continue to survive after you die?"
"It can't survive forever," Levi said, "but it can survive for a while before it collapses on itself."
"Why do you want to imprison Li? The real reason."
“There were many considerations at the time.”
Levi said:
“First of all, I’m an extremely selfish person.
"If both Li and I leave the Empire, it will soon collapse. The Empire is a backward, primitive, and oppressive imperial system. This system can exist in the Milky Way because of the barriers formed by military technology. As long as one of us, Li or I, stays, the Empire can survive.
“Then, the empire I built with my own hands is like my own children. I don’t feel too much about my descendants.
“Also, the energy required for dimensional upgrading is ridiculous. It requires me to synchronize with reason and assimilate into a thinking body. If that happens, will I still exist?
"So I chose to backstab Li."
Yang Ming said calmly: "You are such a beast."
"That's a fair comment," Levi said with a self-deprecating smile, "but you can't deny that I once built the most powerful empire."
"You haven't figured out why you lost resonance with the Omnic Twilight."
Yang Ming sighed:
"The closer you are to building your own Sherman Empire, the further you are from Omnic Twilight.
“I have been observing the Milky Way and various political systems, just like flipping through a thick book, and then I found that the law of development of civilization is nothing more than the relationship between the collective and the individual.
"Pure collectivism and extreme individualism are both extreme and will lead to tragic consequences. We need to find a balance between the two, just like walking on a tightrope with a balance stick. There is no template for the development of civilization, and most individuals in this civilization need to constantly find this balance point.
"The Omnic Twilight has reached a very high level of civilization. What they value is not how much resources and power the examinee has, nor the examinee's personal morality and character, but the examinee's thoughts and understanding of civilization.
"I am not sure I can continue to resonate with the Omnic Twilight because my knowledge is extremely limited."
Levi frowned and asked back, "Are you involved in politics on your home planet?"
"No, I'm just an ordinary person."
Yang Ming said calmly:
“The education I received since childhood has taught me to work hard to build a fair and harmonious world.
“The online environment I have been exposed to since childhood has taught me how unfair this world is.
“The various competitions I experienced since childhood reminded me that there are countless interest groups between individuals and the collective.
"After coming to the Milky Way, I have come to understand some truths. It is very difficult to unify the thoughts of all individuals in a civilization, but as long as most people are inclined towards light, this civilization can continue."
Levi laughed dumbly: "You really don't need my guidance."
"So do you have anything else to say?"
Yang Ming stretched out his left hand and slowly moved it towards Levi's arm.
He moved slowly, giving Levi enough time to move, and also giving the inevitable watching Li time to make his move.
But it was quiet everywhere.
Many students and faculty members had already finished their lunch and left the cafeteria, preparing for the afternoon training.
clatter.
With a very slight sound, Yang Ming's palm pressed on Levi's arm.
Yang Ming felt that the air around him seemed to be in some kind of tangle.
He did not release the butterfly directly, but Li seemed unable to resist taking action.
Yang Ming looked at Levi, who was still very calm: "I'll give you a chance to say your last words."
"I don't have any last words."
Levi's hair began to slowly turn snow-white and thick, his face returned to its old look, and his deep and calm eyes just stared straight at the wall in front of him.
"Yang Ming, tell me, if you and I were from the same era, would we become each other's biggest rivals?"
"No," Yang Ming said, "If I still have my current individual combat power, I will attack you by surprise and will not give you the opportunity to launch a large fleet."
"Ha, you... after I'm gone, how will this empire end... it's too old, it should die..."
Levi murmured:
“Please make sure to take note.
“The higher-dimensional world is not a paradise; it is just an abyss where there is no light or end.
"The Faraya civilization is an extremely collectivist civilization. They fundamentally deny individual initiative. In the higher-dimensional world, this is completely contrary to our cognition and our thoughts... This is an irreconcilable contradiction between us and the Faraya civilization.
"Where there is contradiction there will inevitably be conflict. When you complete the dimensional upgrade, the Fayya people will inevitably be wary of you and put you in shackles. What they value is your fighting spirit. Because of the extreme collectivism of the Fayya people, what they lack most is an active, strong free will that can create infinite possibilities."
He looked at Yang Ming and whispered, "Do you consider me a friend? At some point before."
"some."
Yang Ming laughed in silence: "You tyrant, you still have the nerve to ask this question."
"We are destined to be lonely, Yang Ming."
"Loneliness is the underlying color of the individual, Levi."
Levi slowly closed his eyes: "At least, I existed."
Yang Ming's palm suddenly pressed down.
There were no signs and no words spoken.
Yang Ming moved his left hand away, and a butterfly mark that looked like it was bleeding appeared on Levi's arm. Levi groaned in pain, and the severe pain made him twist rapidly, and veins bulged on his forehead.
Yang Ming stood up and looked at Levi with a frown.
"ah!"
Levi's right arm was rotting rapidly, with tiny squares appearing at the wound.
The rot spread toward the shoulders.
Levi fell to the ground, his body twisted irregularly, and he let out low growls. The people around him stood up in surprise and looked at this side in panic.
Adwan Kabuba rushed over with a confused look on his face.
Yang Ming frowned tightly.
Did the Faa want to torture him on purpose? Couldn't they just kill him? Don't say the Faa couldn't do it.
"Daru! What's wrong, uncle?"
"You go offline first," Yang Ming said with a frown.
"Offline?"
Yang Ming turned his head and glared at Ed Wang: "Don't think I don't know who you are! Get off the line! The uncle is Levi."
Edwang opened his mouth and looked at the old man rolling on the ground in astonishment, and his figure quickly disappeared.
The moment before he went offline, he heard Yang Ming's murmur.
"You are getting bolder and bolder. You don't even call me boss anymore. You keep yelling 'daru daru' every day. Apart from Xiao 26, who else can come near here and do housework for me every day? I'll settle the score with you when I'm offline."
"Yang Ming!"
The decay on Levi's right arm was extending towards his shoulder, and his arm looked like a toilet paper roll with half of it eaten away.
“Don’t trust Faya!
“Don’t lose your vibe!
"No...ah...ah! Save me, help me...just kill me! Ah!"
Yang Ming clenched his fist tightly, and a blood-red butterfly appeared on his right palm again. He lowered his head and leaned over, quickly slapping Levi's head.
Sudden!
Buzz——
Yang Ming felt that his movements were rapidly slowed down dozens of times. The cafeteria in his sight turned gray and Levi's painful face seemed to be frozen.
A white palm appeared in Yang Ming's sight and pressed on Yang Ming's chest at a normal speed.
Bang!
The images in front of Yang Ming's eyes returned to normal flow, and his body quickly retreated and hit the wall heavily.
Next to Levi, the girl in a black miniskirt chopped off Levi's rotten arm with her palm, but tiny crystals still appeared at the wound of Levi's broken arm, and the decay began to spread again at the wound.
The girl's eyes were a little red, but she moved extremely quickly. She wrapped Levi with a thin film and then picked him up horizontally.
Inside the film, the flow of time suddenly slowed down to near freezing, and the wound was almost frozen.
"reason!"
Yang Ming covered his chest and climbed up, shouting to Li:
"Didn't you lead me here step by step? Didn't you show me how much you hated him? What are you doing now? Let me put an end to him!"
Li raised his head and looked towards Yang Ming.
Her girlish face gradually became mature, and her body grew taller. The mature Li who was placed in the statue of the goddess of the Empire Development Cult appeared in front of Yang Ming, and six white wings slowly spread out behind her.
Two tears fell from her wet eyes.
"No," her voice was trembling, "don't kill him."
"reason!"
Yang Ming slowly approached Li, speaking quickly:
“You can live with me temporarily. I can send you back to the Omnic Twilight. I still have a chance for the third test.
“I know you’ve been wronged over the years, if you believe me, let Levi go and don’t take revenge on humans.
"The Empire has existed for tens of thousands of years, and Levi has existed for tens of thousands of years. This is no longer a normal civilization! Their end is inevitable! But you can live for freedom. The real candidates for the Omnic Twilight are you and Lu, aren't you?"
Li's lips trembled as he took a deep breath: "Thank you."
“We can talk about all of this!”
"But no need."
Li looked down at Levi's old face, slowly lowered his head, and gently rubbed the film with his cheek.
"Reason, revenge on humans cannot..."
The ground beneath Yang Ming's feet suddenly collapsed, and blocks began to fall into the dark abyss below. Yang Ming and the figures around him quickly disappeared.
The entire high-level training base and the surrounding urban areas began to collapse and disintegrate.
Yang Ming frowned tightly.
Levi has been infected with the virus and his body is slowly breaking down.
His mission was accomplished.
In Yang Ming's sight, a beam of light fell from the depths of the sky. Li, with his wings spread, held Levi and walked through the beam of light, and the entire City of Light was shaking.
Metal lines appeared in the sky.
The blue sky disappeared, replaced by a metal dome that stretched as far as the eye could see.
At this moment, Yang Ming could only lie on the falling block and watch all this.
This is not his territory, he can only be a spectator now.
This planet, called the City of Light, was wrapped in a metal shell. Warnings sounded everywhere, and all mechanical thinking bodies stopped their actions. Their eyes began to flash synchronously, and they looked up at the dome in the sky.
The skin on their bodies began to peel away.
It was like stripping off one piece of one-piece clothing after another, revealing the outline of a translucent human figure filled with starlight and light.
The entire City of Light was instantly filled with these transparent figures.
Huge beams of light began to shine, connecting the metallic sky and ground. Human figures quickly merged into these beams of light like moths to a flame.
here we go.
Yang Ming closed his eyes.
He suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.
The feeling of powerlessness in the face of the Fayyads.
Yes, he was involved in all the actions, he drove the whole story, he seemed to be the mastermind behind it all.
But he just followed the route arranged by Faya and did what he could to make Faya believe in him. Now, he is also the promoter of revenge against the world.
Stay calm.
There's no use getting upset.
Fighting against Faya is something you can only consider after you become strong enough.
A real man is born in a higher-dimensional world, how can he be depressed and inferior to others for long?
Yang Ming curled his lips, looked at the flashing "Exit" button in front of him, raised his middle finger to the sky, and then clicked it down with his middle finger.
"Boss! Levi's fleet is moving!"
