4th Cataclysm (4)

Die Eule der Minerva beginnt erst mit der einbrechenden

Dammerung ihren Flug.

The owl of Minerva spreads its wings only at dusk.

-Hegel’s The Philosophy of Law (Grim Poetry inien der Philosophic des Rechts)j 中一

[Are you going to repeat the same mistake?]

the setting sun goes down

The sun is setting directly towards the continent.

At the same time, John Jae, who I had been looking for so much, appeared before my eyes.

Phoenix.

At his appearance, a space in my inventory started to shine brightly.

-/ Materials / ?

When unclean values abound, the hands of the clock turn backwards, dragons and demons will mingle, and the star of calamity draws long trajectories in the sky,

The sun goes down and finally the long sulfur

my soul will die

– (Item has been sealed)

This is an item dropped when the phoenix disappeared in the past.

I could now understand the meaning of the words in this spell book.

The overflow of unholy values means that the Zodiac broke the money copy bug, and that the hands of the clock go backwards.

The mixing of dragons and demons is Omuamua, the long trajectory of the star of calamity in the sky is Omuamua’s formidable HP, and the long twilight when the sun goes down and finally sets is this. hinting at the destruction of the world.

And the owl of Minerva spreads its wings only at dusk.

The phoenix was resurrected at the last twilight moment of this world and appeared before me again.

Is it because the sun is getting closer? The phoenix is more vivid than ever before.

It can be said that this is the characteristic of monsters that use the energy of fire as the source of their vitality.

Eventually, the phoenix began to create a wall of fire and ice with a power much stronger than when they first met to stop the sun’s fall.

and said to me.

[From now on, I will make you perfect.]

What does this mean?

Before I even questioned it.

… Paah!

The phoenix’s message becomes a blazing fire and burns my body.

White light, a white flame that only pure beings can create

eat your body

At the same time

Numerous memories began to replay in my head.

Experiences I’ve never had, but memories that must be me.

The mysterious memories of Belpegol, whom I met in the Tower of Killers in the past, come to my mind clearly.

was running

The whole world was drenched in dark red.

An ominous red shooting star falls in the sky where the sun has disappeared and the night sky is filled with only yellow sulfur clouds.

Burning earth, thick black smoke.

And what you see in the sky is the trail of a single large shooting star.

I turned my head to follow the long red trajectory in the sky.

where the stars fall. The point where heaven and earth meet.

There, a huge mysterious monster soared to the point of doubting the eyes.

‘What is that?’

I raised my head with a puzzled expression and looked at the huge monster in front of me.

Standing tall alone in a ruined world.

The elongated shape of an oval wrapped in a dark red light is as if it is not of the present age, it is a bizarre appearance.

From the name to the appearance and description, everything was a questionable existence.

‘Is there such a monster? No, what the hell are you doing here?’

I turned my head.

Then new faces appeared in my eyes.

Countless dead and scattered corpses.

Humans, orcs, and lizardmen alike are all dead dead.

Among them, there were many famous rankers who could know who they were just by looking at their faces.

And a man standing tall in front of the mountain of corpses.

His face, standing till the last on the burning and collapsing earth, I could recognize at a glance.

‘… … Is it me?’

it was me

A face that looks 15 years older than me before returning.

Appearing to be in my 50s, I kept my head upright and stared at the huge monster in front of me until the last moment.

A burning sky, a long red trajectory, an unknown giant monster, and the last player.

At the same time

Coo-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu… …

The monster started moving.

And I also took a step forward.

The red traces in the sky are getting darker.

The long marks left by the shooting stars were long and clear dividing the sky.

then.

– Tiling!

A loud beep sounded in my ear.

I come back to reality.

knowing everything.

When I opened my eyes, the phoenix opened its mouth.

[Is it finally complete?]

Yes. finally became complete.

After all, the key to which the phoenix has the answer to my return was right.

“… … I was not a returner.”

Yes.

I am a returnee who has returned with 15 years of memories.

But the memories of those 15 years should have been 30 years ago.

I had to come back with the memory of the moment when the game server was destroyed 30 years later, but for some reason I

Only 15 years of memories were brought with me.

Even that.

[Yes. You didn’t go back, you saw the future.]

The future value thoroughly calculated and predicted by the most outstanding deep learning AI in human history.

I was injected with it as an electrical signal and it was like a living AI, nuclear, deep

It has been moving like a running system itself.

Like a brain in a barrel!

What is a ‘brain in a barrel’?

It is a thought experiment proposed by the philosopher Hillary Putnam in 1981.

We take our brains out and put them in a vat, make all external stimuli into electrical signals, etc. and inject them into the brain so that the brain can feel only the virtual environment.

make rock

Then, the brain itself cannot distinguish whether it is facing the real world or merely mechanically responding to external stimuli.

All of this happened on the first EEG when I bought the game capsule and did the first one to check the synchro rate of my body.

Yeoongchim (呂翁枕), Sunshine Spring Dream (一場)

春夢), Southern Daydream (南柯一夢), and bleak daydream (黃梁一炊夢).

In an EEG scan that lasted only a few seconds, I experienced the future of the past 30 years with deep learning, and as a result, I have a foresight enough to be called a regressor.

[However, because of my lack of strength, I was not able to keep all my memories completely. it’s a pity If it had been there, it would have been possible to prevent Wilson’s unjust intervention a little sooner. -.One

The subtle butterfly effects and unknown future knowledge were variables that occurred because of the lost 15 years of memory.

… … But there are still variables.

“Then why did it have to be me?”

The phoenix answered my question simply.

[If the memory of the future is to enter this world,

Show all the players you belong to. But everyone except you lost all their memories the moment they woke up from the EEG. You are the only one who remembered that much.]

“… … okay? For some reason, I was just a mess.”

[Believe in your own potential. There is a proverb that there is a saying ‘You never know when the singularity of life will come’ for a race called Player.]

After all, did Goethe complete the immortal masterpiece ‘Faust’ at the age of 82? You never know when the turning point in your life will come.

[For your reference] The singularity is the moment of standing up when about 15 years have passed; It was ‘at that moment’ when the value of the Georg filter exploded the most. I can only guess that this may be the reason why memory preservation was made from that moment on.]

[I’m also curious. Under what circumstances did it leave such a deep burn-in phenomenon? What was the event that gave you such a strong sensation that you will never forget it even after you die?]

Ah… … Well… … that… … .

‘Even if I die, I can’t say that I broke an item while strengthening it.’

I turned around moderately.

“Affection, interest and persistence in this world? What is it?”

[is it.]

“right.”

Isn’t that what it all is?

I shook my head.

The phoenix’s words are truly amazing

However, from the perspective of the past and the future of the past 30 years, there is nothing to believe.

The Phoenix continued.

[The past and present are fictional concepts. Time is relative. Just like time slows down on a fast-moving object. Since the present and the future exist continuously at the same time and are not separate, we need to think deeply about the propositions of regression and memory preservation.

no need.]

I have no idea what he was saying, but I understood at least one last sentence.

Yes, it will be possible to see the end of the human brain in an age where we are also looking at the end of the universe.

Anyway, the important thing is that I am not a regressor.

The me of the past and the me of now are still the same, and I have always been

Not living in the future, but living in the present.

Mistaking a sense of déjà vu, which is close to deja vu, as future knowledge.

… … whatever anyway

As the sun went down, the temperature of the ground rose sharply, and this caused the phoenix to live up to its name and resurrect.

And soon after, the phoenix’s final trait, ‘Deus Ex Machina’

He expressed his character and delivered his full power to me, and as a result, I learned 15 years of future knowledge and 15 years of future knowledge after that.

Naturally, I recognized Wilson’s me too.

It exploited the imaginations of countless innocent people to create its own world.

According to Kim Jong-un’s claim, Wilson is the god of the created world.

He wants to rule, but that’s a very one-dimensional interpretation.

Even after recovering all his memories, it was not easy to understand Wilson’s true intentions.

“What do you want?”

I asked Omuamua, who was drawing the sun in the distance.

Wilson opened his mouth for the first time and answered me.

“It looks like the singularity has come. You and I have already crossed an irreversible river.”

He reaches out to me with his two hands grasping the great ruin.

[Nothing will change.]

destruction on the world.

It’s the fragment of the memory I saw earlier in Belpegol’s nightmare.

as it is

However.

“no. Everything will be different.”

The person I am now in my 50s is different from the one I faced in the nightmare.

In the meantime, I am armed with countless perks and items.

And I have strong colleagues who support me.

• •.Sparkle!

As soon as I regained all my memories, I immediately drew a hidden card.

The ‘Deus Ex Machina’ characteristics given by the Phoenix are compatible and linkable with all the characteristics I have collected so far.

From now on, one by one the achievements I have achieved over a long period of time

It was time to take it out and show it off.

In front of the screen of the Hong movie that is being broadcast live all over the world!
