Infinite Anime Transformed into Sky Striker

Of course, she can use her absolute power to require everyone to behave themselves, and even directly stipulate what kind of things they can do and what kind of thoughts they can have every day.

But this is not what she wants. In that case, humans will become machines, screws and gears in this mechanical fortress called Utopia.

Too much freedom will only lead to chaos, but too much discipline and restriction will kill people at the spiritual and soul level.

She just wants to restrict people from committing crimes and let them live a rich, happy and worry-free life.

Let people recognize this utopia from the bottom of their hearts.

Forcing people to approve of her was not what she wanted.

She would rule with fear and wouldn't mind having armed patrol robots keep an eye on everyone, but this wasn't to force them to accept this society, but simply to prevent them from committing crimes and destroying the legitimate happiness of others.

Simple stability is meaningless; what matters most is whether people are happy.

Whether it is stability or harmony, they are just by-products and gifts after people become happy.

A stable society where people are filled with anger and resentment is definitely not what Lingyi wants, and it cannot be called an ideal place.

Just like she has always done, her bloodiness and brutality are only directed at pests. As for normal innocent people, Lingyi has no ill will towards them except to scare them not to become pests.

So, she could only keep correcting various mistakes and trying various directions.

Starting from improving AI logic, to the distribution of social resources, to social structure and lawmaking, and so on.

Keep trying to simulate until the next day dawn -

Lingyi has tried hundreds of simulations, and in the second half of the night, Lingyi even directly developed further uses for the two God-Destroying Tools, and simulated several societies at the same time to increase the observation samples.

The lifespan of the simulated society has also reached ten years.

For the first time, Lingyi looked tired, both physically and mentally exhausted.

But she still had no intention of stopping.

She can see progress, and although there are many obstacles, as numerous as the stars in the sky, she is still full of energy.

"It's a grand vision, and your attitude doesn't seem like just lip service. You might be able to get along well with that nice guy, but—"

The Sekiryuutei Ddraig also watched from the side all night.

Including Patchouli.

When Lingyi was conducting simulation experiments, they were always by her side and constantly giving her advice.

"You should rest. Regardless of whether you'll tire yourself out if you continue, I'm worried that you'll easily fall into a misguided way of thinking and get stuck in a rut."

"Yes, that's all for today."

Patchouli also closed the magic book used to assist Lingyi in calculations.

“Continuous thinking may not necessarily lead to the answer, and the problem you face cannot be answered in a short period of time. It is a complex system composed of countless problems.”

"If you continue like this, you won't get any answers, and the inertia of your thinking will only get stronger, which is not conducive to your thinking."

"Why don't you take a break and let's talk. Lingyi, what are your specific views on Utopia?"

164. Utopian Paradox: Utopia? A Pseudo-Utopia!

Patchouli closed the book, revealing the title written in strange characters. The translated meaning of this title is - [Utopian Paradox].

Her library contains more than just magic books. All kinds of knowledge that interests her are stored in it.

The light emitted by the artifact formed an almost transparent light screen in front of the two people, and on the other side of the light screen were several miniature cities and islands.

Those were the proofs of Ling Yi's failure again, and they were constantly emitting thick black smoke like a extinguished candle.

However, that was also a milestone for Lingyi to take another step towards his goal.

"Why not take a break?"

Patchouli put the book back into the library of the other dimension, her purple pupils glowing with rationality in the sunlight.

"Lingyi, maybe it's time to tell me your specific views on Utopia."

Ling Yi waved her hand and made the simulated cities that were in chaos disappear. This question made her raise an eyebrow slightly.

Ddraig had asked her the same question before, right when she had just started the simulation, and she had answered it then as well.

Except Patchouli wasn't there at the time.

"It's very simple."

She slumped down on the table wearily.

"A society free of oppression and conflict, people living in harmony and mutual respect, material and spiritual abundance, the coexistence of nature and civilization—this is also the common perception of an ideal world, right?"

Before she finished speaking, she sighed and smiled a mixture of fatigue and mockery. "But a society like that can't exist. It only exists between the pages of literature, a fantasy concocted by people crushing reality."

“Conflict will never completely disappear, and neither will selfishness in human nature.”

She lowered her eyes as if she was talking to herself, or as if she was tired.

"People are like this. They are not only beautiful, but also have ugly sides. I don't deny this. What I deny is that they actually put malicious thoughts into action and cause harm to others."

"So as long as people exist, as long as thought remains free, as long as thinking is not so narrow as to understand nothing, then different flames will always burn into each other's firewood. When different thoughts collide, beautiful fireworks will be splashed, but unfriendly sparks are also inevitable."

“People need the iron cage of the system and the discipline of absolute order.”

"So my goal is actually a society with equal resources. This is my ideal world."

Lingyi's nails dug into her palm unconsciously. "It will be like a vine climbing towards the moon, climbing towards the real utopia little by little, until one day I can pluck the fantasy off and stuff it into the pocket of reality."

"A fairer starting point means that no one will be trapped in the quagmire forever just because they were born there. Education, healthcare, employment, housing... these basic resources should be as universal as air and should not be restricted by one's background."

"All reasonable demands should be met so that society can run smoothly like a well-oiled clock."

"The crime rate will be completely crushed. After all, only people with unreasonable demands will cross the red line - and such people are nothing more than pests that need to be cleared out."

"Equal resources can make gold buried in the sand shine on its own, eliminating the regret of pearls being thrown into the dark."

“Society’s potential should be like the molten lava beneath the earth, always surging and never cooling.”

Ling Yi looked at the slowly disappearing miniature city and said in a voice so soft it sounded like a sigh: "No one should be forgotten in the gutter. Everyone should be respected, supported, and protected."

“Is this a society of equal resources?”

Patchouli seemed to be lost in thought, then she gave a rare, faint smile.

“I’m glad you have such clear and more realistic goals.”

Before this, although she heard from Lingyi that her goal was Utopia, she didn't really care about it.

Because it is too broad and empty, and has no sense of reality.

What is an ideal world? How can we achieve it? What would each person and each day in that ideal world be like? What would it take to achieve this goal? And what did Ling Yi actually do to achieve it?

It was so vague, so vague that she couldn't even see the general outline of the target, so she naturally had no intention of paying much attention to it.

Let Lingyi think it over first.

She thought about it for a long time, but Lingyi forgot about it as soon as she turned around.

Moreover, a true utopia is impossible to achieve. As Lingyi said, people have all kinds of ideas. Even the same person will have completely different ideas when facing the same day, which will inevitably spark unfriendly sparks.

In a true utopia, people's ideas must be highly consistent and subject to strict restrictions. The strictness here is far stricter than the requirement of not committing crimes in Zero Clothes.

At that level, it is probably difficult for humans to be considered human beings. They may not even be living beings with thoughts and self.

When a normal person truly sees such a world, what he or she will feel is definitely not the yearning for beauty and joy, but fear.

A fear similar to the uncanny valley effect.

People may feel that the people in these utopias have an appearance exactly like humans, but they are not humans at all on the inside, but some kind of pseudo-humans that seem real but are not.

Humans have emotions like joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, but the people in these utopias don’t.

Even if you punch them, they will just smile and ask you with their bleeding eyes - "Is your hand okay?"

If they could experience joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, then this would not be an ideal land. As long as they could experience joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, there would definitely be contradictions and conflicts, but an ideal land would not produce contradictions.

"However, precisely because you have a clear goal, you should rest even more. This isn't something that can be achieved overnight. Being too impatient will only lead to more omissions, right?"

"Yeah...I understand..."

Ling Yi did not refute.

She wasn't carried away by it, and knew that Patchouli and Ddraig's advice was correct.

Otherwise she would have started another simulation by now.

"Thank you so much for accompanying me until now."

Patchouli and Ddraig were not just sitting here with her, but like him, they were observing the situation in the simulated society and constantly making suggestions.

"I don't care. I'll go back to sleep anyway."

Ddraig didn't care at all. "Besides, I'm quite interested in your goal. It's something that even that nice guy couldn't achieve."

"Compared to this, have you thought about the reward for me?"

Patchouli raised her eyebrows.

The reason why Lingyi is able to play simulation now is entirely due to borrowing Patchouli's two divine destruction tools.

In exchange for borrowing the Divine Destroyer, and even for borrowing it for a long time in the future, Lingyi needs to pay Patchouli a reward, and this is also the thank you proposed by Lingyi himself.

165. Stars suppress the children

"However, before you fulfill your gratitude, go get some sleep and recover."

Hundreds of high-speed simulations, and in the later stages even multiple simulations were carried out simultaneously, so this can be considered hundreds of high-speed simulations.

This caused considerable consumption to Lingyi.

Physical exhaustion is easy to recover from, but mental exhaustion is not so easy.

There are medications that can restore mental damage, but they are far more expensive and less effective than treatment.

Unless there are special circumstances, it is wise to go to sleep peacefully.

"it is good."

Ling Yi agreed.

When they returned to the room to rest, Patchouli followed Lingyi into the room.

When faced with Lingyi's doubts, she came up with an idea.

She planned to help Lingyi rest, and the specific method was to use a knee pillow and magic.

If it were in the past, Lingyi would definitely agree immediately.

Because there is no reason to refuse, the relationship between the two is good, and it can also help with mental recovery. In addition, the good relationship has made Lingyi willing to contact Patchouli in the past.

But this time, she hesitated because something in her heart was awakened.

Patchouli noticed it, so she raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

"...No, nothing. Thank you for troubling Patch..."

Lingyi smiled again and agreed.

If it was just a knee pillow, she was very tired now, and her mind was full of simulations, so she had no mind to care about anything else. She just wanted to rest.

So it should be fine, it's not considered taking advantage.

Lingyi is not good at lying, at least she is not good at lying to her own people, and she lies without any preparation.

So Patchouli still noticed the strangeness in Lingyi's smile.

She didn't say anything, but just watched the hesitation silently.

Then came the knee pillow. As Patchouli rested her knees on them, a faint magical light lit up in her palms.

The magic of sleep aid, coupled with the fact that Lingyi really had no mind to think about anything else, soon led to the sound of steady breathing.

Patchouli cast magic with one hand and gently stroked Lingyi's head with the other.

Then, the hand slowly slid towards Lingyi's cheek, and finally to her slightly open, moist lips.

The magic light quietly changed color, from light blue to pink.
