Chapter 1124 A Wish Nourished by Despair 2
Human behavior patterns are complex; no matter how outrageous they are, they still seem to have a human touch.
No matter how well non-human beings disguise themselves, they will always make mistakes, and these mistakes will be quite obvious.
Is it wish or resentment? Shi Yu knew better than anyone that this creature was entangled in resentment.
"What's wrong? Do you want to tell me your wish?"
I'd like to mimic a cat's movements, seemingly rolling around, to try and lower other people's guard.
"Okay, my wish is world peace."
Shi Yu didn't intend to directly refute this wish, and also wanted to know how things would develop next.
They clearly do not understand the meaning of world peace. In the face of life and death, these people's only wish is to survive and to live on with their loved ones and friends.
Their mindset is very simple, after all, their ideas are drawn from these people on the verge of death, and they have probably only ever seen those who are struggling to survive.
"Can't do it?"
Shi Yu seemed very disappointed, a fact that Yuan noticed.
"Of course it can be done, I just can't understand why you want world peace."
Shi Yu noticed that Yuan's voice had changed; it was no longer the dazed consciousness it had before.
"A cluster consciousness?" Shi Yu thought to himself, while maintaining an innocent expression. This consciousness was clearly much more complex than the previous one.
"Because there will be no suffering if there is world peace."
Shi Yu pretended to be innocent, speaking these childish words with a smile, which also matched the original owner's body age of eighteen or nineteen.
"Pain? You don't want to experience pain?"
It was clear that the other person understood what pain meant to them, so they showed a slight emotional reaction upon hearing the word "pain".
Their emotions stem from these people's will to survive, so they have the desire to live, but what is this world really like?
Shi Yu smiled and asked in return, "Yes, of course I don't want to experience pain, don't you think?"
"Isn't pain the cornerstone of self-improvement? You often say that a sharp sword is forged through tempering and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitter cold."
Isn't suffering your best tempering? Suffering forges great people, so why would you wish for suffering to disappear?
It seems that their sore spot was really hit, and the pain nourished them.
"Pain doesn't make people great; it's their thoughts that make them great. Pain is just pain; it has no inherent meaning. What has meaning is that some people can persevere through suffering."
Suffering is not a necessity, but it is unavoidable; we must face it head-on.
As for the debate, Shi Yu was happy to talk to him anyway.
"You're right, but why is your wish world peace? Even in peace there will be natural disasters, man-made disasters, all sorts of petty scheming, and wherever there are people, there will be conflict!"
Yuan's expression twisted, clearly indicating her disagreement with Shi Yu's words. Her cute appearance was instantly ruined, and Shi Yu felt that her disguise was still too weak.
"So, can you do it? If not, then forget it."
Shi Yu didn't think he had that ability; even distorting such a wish was beyond His capabilities.
This wish is nothing more than controlling this illusion; he will pretend to present a peaceful scene, or perhaps he simply doesn't understand the so-called peace.
"as you wish."
Yuan laughed loudly, seemingly no longer caring about her image. A burst of light appeared, and Shi Yu felt the other person pulling at his emotions.
"If you can remove the stigma from this world, then peace will naturally come. I give you this power. Become a hunter. Good luck."
The wish is to return to the original state, which clearly indicates that the consciousness has departed.
What is "殇" (shāng)?
Shi Yu shifted to a more comfortable position and sat on the ruins. This creature was clearly not very bright and had not yet noticed that the wailing sounds around it had disappeared. Shi Yu's talking to it was not without purpose.
“The wounds are traumas that originate from the world. They come in various forms and have different abilities, but they cause countless casualties. Many of the natural disasters you see are caused by the activities of the wounds.”
Shi Yu smiled. Wasn't Shang created by them? Anyway, he didn't know the specifics, but he knew that whoever benefited was most likely the mastermind.
The suffering caused by natural disasters leaves many people teetering between life and death, and that repeated cycle of suffering forms the source of their sense of self.
