Chapter 507 The world is broken, let's fix it

Zhou Yi immediately asked Sun Hao to summon the nightmare demon.

After such a long period of training, the size of the nightmare demon has shrunk, and his height and appearance have become exactly the same as Sun Hao.

But its whole body is pitch black, with two horns on its head, just like a blackened version of the demon Sun Hao who returned from coal mining.

Meeting Zhou Yi's cold gaze, the Nightmare Demon shrank his neck.

"Hello...hello."

It subconsciously hid behind Sun Haohou.

Zhou Yi said, "Stand still."

"Yes."

The nightmare suddenly stood at attention.

Sun Hao, who was standing next to him, also reminded him, "Father has something to ask you. You must answer truthfully and don't hide anything."

"I must tell the truth and never hide anything."

The nightmare quickly expressed his opinion.

Zhou Yi said: "Are you really the life created by Sun Hao's "Consciousness Puzzle"? "

"..."

The nightmare's eyes suddenly wandered left and right, and it said cautiously: "Not really..."

Sun Hao, who was standing next to him, was surprised: "Where are you from?"

"Uh."

There was a trace of confusion in the dream demon's eyes: "Actually, I don't know. When I became conscious, I was already with you."

"At first, I also thought that we were two sides of the same coin, and that I evolved from your abilities and consciousness. But after repairing a large number of consciousness fragments, I confirmed that this was not the case."

"Later, I entered some dreams and talked with other nightmares. Only then did I figure out that we were sent into various life forms after birth."

"But we are actually harmless to all kinds of life."

It explains: "We only take away a part of the joyful and excited consciousness in the dream, and take in a part of the crazy and destructive consciousness."

"This keeps life relatively peaceful. Extreme happiness and anger are both dangerous."

"We will also send the stripped fragments of consciousness to the Great Holy Spirit for reuse."

"People outside call us nightmares, but we often call each other repairmen. What we often say is that the world is broken, and we fix it."

Zhou Yi looked strange when he heard this: "Why is the world in such a mess?"

"Is such that."

The nightmare gestured: "As more and more lives gain self-awareness, the space here becomes smaller relative to each life, and the collision of consciousness becomes very frequent. This kind of collision is difficult to see directly on the material side. But the impact it causes is very far-reaching."

"From the perspective of consciousness, every consciousness will emit a large amount of fragments and consciousness radiation around it, instinctively expanding the scope of influence of its own consciousness. The more powerful the life, the more so."

"Perhaps only pure consciousness, such as conceptual life, can see this phenomenon."

"Too many self-aware beings exist, densely living in towns and settlements, and the collision of their consciousnesses is becoming more and more intense. For example, for humans, sometimes a glance at each other can lead to conflict and a fight to the death."

"The source is a high-intensity collision of consciousness. Both sides feel threatened and nervous, and most areas of consciousness will quickly transform into a consciousness of destruction."

It spoke very quickly: "So we fragmented part of our consciousness to reduce the conditions for the birth of destructive consciousness and make those consciousnesses that are prone to anger and stress become blurred."

Zhou Yi took some time to digest this information.

"So why can't there be more positive awareness?"

"Too much joy is more dangerous than violence."

The nightmare said seriously, "Because violence is predictable, it will eventually lead to self-destruction, just like a lit barrel of explosives, it explodes in an instant. If you can put out the flames in advance, you can control it."

"But pleasure can lead to a high level of dependence and addiction. In order to obtain long-term pleasure, people will do anything. As the threshold continues to increase, the behavior must become more and more intense."

"The most common thing is making money. Of course, people will be very happy if they make a little money. But if this kind of pleasure is not controlled and diluted, then people will do everything to get more money, whether it is killing, robbing, destroying, squeezing... These are all means to obtain pleasure."

"Pleasure is also more easily spread than violence, and will quickly affect other consciousnesses, forming a large-scale deep addiction that is difficult to quit."

It says: "People who pursue extreme pleasure and people who are extremely violent are equally dangerous and will cause great damage to the conscious side."

Zhou Yi thought of drug addicts and gamblers.

The destructive power of these two types of people may be greater than that of simple violent criminals.

“Why do you want to fix the world?”

“Because we have a responsibility!”

The Nightmare said in a proud tone: "Perhaps it is hard for you to believe, but we are the defenders and witnesses of this world. From the first sprout of life underwater in ancient times to the current era of complex changes in various forms of life, heroes have come and gone, but we have never been absent."

"speak English."

"That's it... We need to collect fragments of consciousness, which seem to be able to breed the next generation of nightmares. I think I was hatched in this way, and then sent to Sun Hao by an adult nightmare."

Zhou Yi hummed.

That matches the news about the book-eating monster.

Sun Hao couldn't help but ask, "Then my consciousness puzzle ability is actually your ability?"

"No. It's your gift."

The nightmare that looked like a blackened Sun Hao waved his hand: "It's just that we happen to be very compatible, so the adult nightmare sent me into you, so that I can grow faster."

"The Dream Demon has two abilities. One is [Dream Creation], which is to create all kinds of dreams; the second is [Non-existence], which can make people forget our existence."

Zhou Yi was stunned when he heard this.

This [non-existence] sounds too similar to [selflessness].

He immediately talked about this ability and expanded it.

The nightmare demon was stunned after seeing this: "It is indeed the same ability... You also have this ability? Are you another form of the nightmare demon?"

Zhou Yi frowned.

Tietie's ability of "selflessness" was acquired through the transformation of a celestial being.

The nightmare group should have an intersection with the celestial beings, and the source of [selflessness] seems to be here with the nightmares. Since the celestial beings obtained the seal light technique from the electromechanical life, it is also normal that they collected the mechanism of selflessness from the nightmares.

The young nightmare in front of him knew nothing about this. It was still in the Skywalker stage, and there were many secrets that only the light core body could know.

Zhou Yi asked: "It is true that the nightmare demon would attack a doctor like Sun Hao, eat away his consciousness and leave."

"it is true."

The nightmare admitted it readily.

"But that's actually a good thing. It looks like we ate the healers, but in fact we transformed them into nightmares. Their abilities are very similar to ours. Through the continuous transformation and reorganization of consciousness fragments, they will become our true peers."

The nightmare said: "Becoming a nightmare is much better than telling the angel of death."

"We don't die easily, and we can be resurrected after death through our own methods. The healers of the Angel of Death are our good partners! This is also a secret between us."

Sun Hao next to him shook his head: "I don't want to be a nightmare, I like the way I am now, I am with everyone."

"The Dream Demon is a very good direction for evolution! You have to believe me, we have been together since birth, we are true brothers, I will not harm you!"

"The doctors all went there voluntarily, because even the angels of death will age, weaken and die."

"We can break out of this cycle, and we don't have the pressure of the Holy Spirit like conceptual life..."

The nightmare demon was promoting it crazily.

Zhou Yi cleared his throat.

The nightmare suddenly shut up.

"How are you in contact with each other?"

This question is important.

According to existing experience, nightmares always disappear without a trace.

"There's no way to get in touch. At least I can't."

The Dream Demon said honestly: "We just meet each other occasionally in dreams. We chat with each other while collecting the fragments of consciousness we need."

"Is there a settlement?"

"It's just dreams. I don't know anything else."

After all, he is still young and has not yet entered the core circle of nightmares.

Zhou Yi brought the topic back: "Now you have two choices."

"Choice one, leave Sun Hao and never let me see you again, otherwise you will be considered a threat to the company and we will deal with you."

"Choice 2, join the company and become the company's first nightmare employee."

The nightmare immediately said: "Join the company!"

"Don't think about it more?"

"I know, there is only this option. In the first option, you will definitely send the light core to kill me..."

It is very smart.

Zhou Yi did have such an idea.

In order to ensure Sun Hao's safety, it is best to kill it.

Zhou Yi asked: "What's your name?"

"I don't have a name... It's not true that succubus don't have names. They can be identified with consciousness. Every succubus has a different consciousness structure."

Zhou Yi thought for a moment and said, "Since you and Sun Hao are good brothers, then you should be called Sun Huai."

The nightmare couldn't help but mutter: "But Chairman, I'm not a bad person. I'm just repairing things in this world. We are the repairers of the world..."

Zhou Yi frowned.

This kid has a lot of opinions.

"The company has decided that this is your name in the company."

"Sun Huai doesn't mean you are a bad character, but you are smart and know how to think from the worst perspective in everything."

"...So that's it."

Meng Mo's brows relaxed immediately: "Sun Huai is a great name! Thank you, Chairman!"

Zhou Yi said: "Sun is bad."

"arrive."

"I am now announcing your appointment to the company. You have two tasks."

"The first is to continue treating those with impaired consciousness with Sun Hao."

"The second is to continue communicating with other nightmares in the dream world to explore and collect information about the celestial beings."

"Yes!"

The nightmare demon Sun Huai hesitated for a moment and looked at the black brain in the metal container.

"Chairman, I can sense that the nightmare demon in that evil brain is not completely dead. It is trapped in the evil brain's dream... Maybe I can go in and find out the situation from it."

Zhou Yi's heart moved: "Can you come out after you go in?"

"Yes. It was directly shattered into pieces, so it can't move and can only remain in the dream. Now the evil brain is controllable, I won't be dismembered."

"Is it possible for that light core nightmare to attack or possess you?"

Sun Huai said, "Possessing my body... Do you mean occupying my consciousness? Although I have never encountered this before, it is possible. I will act according to the situation and escape as soon as possible."

for safety.

Zhou Yi also sent two Guanghe employees, Maoshen and Dafo, to accompany him.

Although they cannot enter dreams, they can connect to Sun Huai through consciousness and provide him with power and information support.

"Then set off immediately."

"Yes."

The nightmare demon transformed into a wisp of black smoke and sneaked into the evil brain's dream.
