Mystery: When the Fool Meets the Masked Fool

Chapter 585 The Anti-Despair Equation and Star Core Fusion
Beyond the illusory and unreal Earth, on the Moon.

The crimson moonlight surged and boiled silently in the vacuum like a tide, defying the laws of physics.

This crimson, thick and deep, resembled congealed blood or boiling lava, immersing the entire moon in an ominous scarlet hue.

Several abstract "symbols," indescribable in concrete language, floated and sank in the moonlight.

Although no one knew what He was doing, His actions quietly attracted the attention of three star gods.

Fuli cast his gaze from the infinite distance, watching the actions of the fallen Mother Goddess.

Nanook, who was originally paying close attention to the "fourth pillar," also briefly diverted a thought and cast his gaze over it.

There seems to be something between the Moon and "Earth" that places the two planets on opposite sides of a scale.

On one side is "Earth" and all its source matter, and on the other side is a crimson tide that is doing something unknown.

In the tide, those nameless symbols surge and churn, linked together by the power of harmony.

Above the tide, a beautiful head slowly emerged. It possessed a perfect profile beyond mortal imagination, with long brown hair flowing in the moonlight, and scarlet eyes that were the embodiment of the concept of "beauty" in the universe, radiating a breathtaking maternal glow.

The appearance of this head merged the entire moon with the crimson tides, encompassing all the symbols along with it.

Error, deception, time and space, fantasy, depravity, omniscience, natural disaster, sacredness, mystery, creation...

These symbols, tinged with crimson light, were swept into the moon's interior by the tide, distorting and bewitching the entire moon. Any living being that glances at it will be driven into unparalleled madness, and even those from the past would find it difficult to look directly at the moon now.

The moon was no longer a cold, lifeless celestial body; it was forcibly revitalized and twisted into an indescribable, bizarre existence. Abundance descended, new shoots and flesh sprouted, and various organs of flesh and blood, mixed with those of plants, appeared. The entire planet came alive, and crimson eyes grew on its surface.

These eyes, like those of a newborn child, darted about, yet contained an unspeakable madness.

It was both innocent and crazy, appearing incredibly chaotic.

At the same time, a beam of light named "Hunter" aimed at this newly activated planet, but seemed to be persuaded by some force of "absolute average, absolute balance, and absolute symmetry" to choose to observe for the time being.

The eerie, soundless vacuum environment emitted the faint, crashing sound of seawater.

A translucent tide, seemingly composed of pure spirituality, suddenly appeared, creating waves that crashed against the twisting, writhing, living moon. With an infinitely inclusive quality, like a mother's gentle embrace, it tenderly and irresistibly engulfed and submerged the entire living moon, dragging it into the spiritual "seabed."

The tides from the Sea of ​​Spiritual Embryos surged and submerged the entire moon.

The power of [breeding] resonates with a buzzing echo.

The great mother swallowed it and awaited its rebirth.

…………

With the crimson moon hanging high overhead, Klein gazed at it, pondering whether it was the Fallen Mother Goddess or just an ordinary projection of the moon.

"What do you think Serris is doing?" Klein turned to look at Padma, who was lying on the table next to him.

"We guess Boss Serres wants to mold you into a super tentacle-wielding big sister in his dreams to satisfy his own fantasies."

Padmaw counted them off one by one with her paws: "You know, Boss Serres likes tentacles, effeminate men, older sisters, and TS..."

"If Brother Ke changes, then it will fit perfectly."

"What are you thinking about all day long?" Klein patted Padmon's head.

"Well, maybe it's about letting Brother Klein reincarnate 33550336 times in his dreams to see if he can cultivate a Harmonious Messenger." Padmon covered her head. Klein shook his head, not answering Padmon's joke. Instead, he closed his eyes, leaned back in his recliner, and seemed to be deep in thought.

He recalled the changes to the [anti-despair equation] in the simulated universe.

It tried to communicate with fate, tried to connect with the past and the future, and tried to erase all "misfortune" from its root.

This was something Klein had also thought about.

In a sense, this can be considered "the son inheriting the father's business".

However, without "misfortune" as a contrast, "happiness" loses its meaning.

People will only become more and more dissatisfied, and the [anti-despair equation] can only choose to keep raising the threshold of happiness.

Using food as a metaphor, it's a progression from "having enough to eat" to "eating well" and then to "eating well at every meal"...

The requirements gradually increased, gradually transforming into hope: "Every meal is a super essence created by hundreds of chefs over 49 days with painstaking effort..."

Human desires are endless and can never achieve true "eternal happiness".

This caused the [anti-despair equation] to freeze and crash, trapping its logic in an infinite loop.

This plunges the [anti-despair equation] itself into despair.

So in the end, it chose to destroy itself.

Klein's thoughts raced, as he pondered what was on his mind while simultaneously connecting with the departing translucent worms, extending them across the spirit world, the astral plane, and the mists of history to all corners of the world.

He wanted to see how people around the world were actually living under the influence of the [anti-despair equation].

As he expected, everyone was doing very well, extremely well, almost perfectly.

Almost everyone gets what they want; after a period of time, they will obtain it through various coincidences. If they want to achieve something, they will succeed after a period of time through some coincidence.

The spirit insects, observing these events, were somewhat puzzled.

While the [anti-despair equation] does indeed symbolize "happiness," isn't it a bit too far-fetched?

Moreover, they have no idea when the [Anti-Despair Equation] gained the ability to "make a wish".

The spirit insects, guided by spirituality and connected by equations, explore the spirit and astral realms.

Soon, they found a special symbol in the astral plane.

The symbol sometimes expands and sometimes contracts, radiating a faint golden halo.

That was something Klein brought out during the last simulated universe.

It was a "reward" personally given to him by the Great Monarch of Annihilation, Xingxiao.

What was his name again? Klein seemed not to know.

The spirit insects looked at the symbol and saw its name.

It is called the "Star Core".
