Chapter 206 The Arrogant Savior
What followed was a long silence.

10032-2 did not speak, nor did Zhang Jie and Liuli on the other side. Each of them was thinking about what Yang Yun said, and what it represented, compared with the behavior of No. 10032, and what they understood.

Yang Yun thought about the two sentences on the monument, and also thought about the "Beginning of Death" he had read, and his tone gradually carried a certain force, a certain will to become steel after many trials and tribulations: "Humans Our past is from scratch, from weak to strong, from the bottom of the food chain to the highest point step by step... This is definitely not because of the "great man descended from heaven", but the efforts of countless ordinary human beings for countless years And struggle, blood and tears and sacrifices, finally a hero is born, a hero is born."

"But there are always a minority of heroes, and there are always a minority of strong people. A group of strong people cannot last forever. They cannot be called 'civilization' or 'ethnic group'."

"In a civilization, the vast majority of existence will be the weak after all. These weak people will not have the firm will of the strong. They will be timid and afraid. They just want to live a stable life and spend this ordinary life. Even if they can't understand the meaning of life, they still want to live..."

Yang Yun seems to be explaining to 10032-2, and seems to be talking to himself: "It is these weak and mediocre people, together with a few strong people, that together form an ethnic group, a civilization, and a civilized society." The seed of fire, so the torch is passed on from generation to generation.”

"People take up arms so that those who protect them don't have to take up arms anymore. Soldiers fight to defend their homes and the country, so that ordinary people can smile and usher in a better tomorrow. For this goal in their hearts, they fight with Fighting in the dark, fighting against erosion, fighting with all kinds of monsters... The meaning of fighting is to protect ordinary people, not to wipe them out along with the evil."

"If you force them to bear the price for this erosion, and take the method of obliterating them, then in this choice again and again, your heart will become as hard as iron sooner or later, and you will take sacrifice and abandonment as a matter of course. Human life is regarded as a simple number, and saving the plane is regarded as the simplest multiple-choice question... And this evil result will eventually come back to me one day."

"Killing to save is nothing more than a sad marathon of running while spitting blood."

——Under the banner of salvation, but only sacrifice and choose the team, after all, some people will continue to be abandoned, left behind, optimized, and sacrificed.

——In the end, the person who makes the choice either chooses to sacrifice himself in the few remaining teams to complete his own final salvation; or in the bloody future where he is alone and the corpses pile up like mountains around him, he will usher in misery own ending.

"As I said, this is also an option."

Despite a moment of hesitation, 10032-2 shook his head and denied: "Choose to sacrifice, choose to give up, choose to exchange your own life or the life of others, all for the final result. As long as more people can be saved , to win in the end..."

"If you only pursue the 'result' of saving the world, then you will not see the 'reality'."

Yang Yun seems to be talking to himself, and seems to be a curtain across time, evaluating some things that have happened and things that have not yet happened: "In this world, anyone who needs to sacrifice and give up to win victory The method is actually just a shortcut, it is a loan to the future, and it will be repaid one day."

——So, with the help of his partners, Zheng Zha, who won the final battle, regards finding a way to revive his partners as the biggest goal in his life.

——That's why Pei Jiao chose to smash the Jiuzhou Ding in exchange for the return of his partners at the last moment when the Jiuding was united.

"Yes, that's it."

Zhang Jie also sorted out his thoughts. Because he didn't think deeply, although he instinctively realized that there was a problem with the way of thinking of 10032-2, he didn't find the deep-seated reason. He didn't know where the problem was. I don't know what the right path is, but now Yang Yun's statement made him suddenly enlightened: "You should never regard sacrifice as a means, regard human life as a weight, and weigh everything on the two ends of the balance. To choose to decide the fate of others...that is so arrogant!"

"It's not arrogance."

10032-2 shifted his gaze to Zhang Jie, and retorted: "This is my judgment as a wise man, and it is also my responsibility as a savior."

"When you say the word 'savior', it is already a kind of arrogance."

Yang Yun said calmly: "The savior you are talking about is born to put yourself in a higher gear. Because the title of savior itself means alms for weak lives and represents your arrogant decision their lives."

"Is there anything wrong with this?" 10032-2 replied quickly: "Ignorance is not a sin, it is the weak. The strong should save the weak. What is wrong with this view?"

"It's not saving, but helping; it's not alms from above, but empathy; it's not deciding the life and death of others in a single thought like a god, but letting go of your body, blending into it, and making everything better."

Yang Yun stared at the cold woman in front of him, and said softly: "This world does not need one or a group of saviors from heaven. Those ordinary people who are unarmed, have no power, and cannot resist ghosts, they need help, they need guidance, They need someone to teach them to get out of the quagmire...but they absolutely don't need condescending 'alms' and 'rescue'."

"...You said, our salvation all this time is charity?"

10032-2's eyes couldn't help but widen a bit. Even if she had no emotion in her heart, she couldn't help feeling an emotion called "anger" at this moment... The man in front of her, after denying the meaning of her birth, , Then you actually want to deny what she has done, those deeds that saved the world?

"I have no intention of denying the years you have fought."

Yang Yun's voice was softer: "I also admire your efforts. You regard the erosion of the world by Dark Gaia as your own responsibility, and you search for the eroded plane tirelessly. In the long-term rescue, I have gradually developed the habit of pursuing efficiency, wishing to spend every minute and every second on saving the new plane... I should be right?"

"Yes, we have saved 640 and eight planes so far."

With a wave of 10032-2's palm, a lot of data appeared in front of her: "The data of these worlds are all recorded in the database, and we meticulously ensure that every sin has been cleared. , we have set a foolproof seal to ensure that the aborigines will not trigger it unintentionally..."

"While ignorant people live in the sun, we must fight them in the shadows and keep them from the public eye so others can live in a sane, ordinary world!"
