Star Railway: I'm developing the Star Railway mobile game at my company.

Therefore, in order to incorporate this greater power into the database and to iteratively upgrade the anti-organic equation, 0089 chose to temporarily follow and learn.

Thus, the two began their journey together with completely different goals, and Shemo's master also sealed off their weapon systems to prevent them from abusing violence during the trip.

During the process, 0089 learned that these monks came from the edge of the star system and were petitioning for the protection of the immortal ship for more than 10,000 monks and 13,000 civilian children.

0089 cannot understand this.

[Question: If they possess power beyond killing, why can't they protect themselves in the universe and have to seek refuge?]

[Question: Does a power beyond killing exist?]

With this question in mind, 0089 continued on his way.

During their journey, they encountered the Buli people, who were of the same race.

To Bu Liren, the monks of Danlun Temple were undoubtedly deserters; since they had encountered them here, he might as well deal with them.

Due to the issue of monastic discipline, the monks of Danlun Temple consistently refused to use their own unique methods to fight against the Moon Madness.

According to Samo's teacher, Dhāna, not using the Moon Madness was not abandoning the blessing, but rather defeating it; only in this way could one break free from narrow-minded struggles.

In the end, to protect everyone, one of the Dharma protectors, the monk Vili, remained there forever.

This scene, in which a life is sacrificed for the precept against killing, left many viewers somewhat bewildered.

Why not use the knife you have?

Even 0089, who was standing to the side, raised a question, and then Tuona explained.

When he first joined Tanrinji Temple, Dhana often couldn't control himself. On the way to protect civilians and monks from fleeing, Yuuju repeatedly forced himself to use violence, either to kill or to be killed.

It wasn't until after adopting Samo that Tana witnessed the fear in Samo's eyes when he saw her in battle. From that moment on, Tana understood.

I realize that each of us is shaping tomorrow's world. I cannot plant seeds of fear and hatred in the soil of the future, allowing Samothrace to become part of the cycle of blood and fire.

Beyond the killing, we still have the power to choose, and the existence of Tanrinji Temple is the best proof of that.

Death is merely the passing away of the body. In this war against the universe, as long as we uphold the commandment of non-killing, we will never face the defeat of the soul.

Hearing Tuona's words, the audience who couldn't understand at first began to ponder.

On their way back, Tanrinji and the others encountered another bounty hunter, since the company had been offering a bounty for these remnants of the Imperial War.

This time, Tuona sacrificed his life to save 0089.

This scene made the bounty hunter both furious and amused.

Am I watching some shoddy comedy show? The bloodthirsty Bu Li Ren died protecting Rupert's killing machine. Hahaha, even ruthless beasts huddle together for warmth.

Come on, I've lost. You can kill me, just like you iron-willed bastards killed my brothers...

[Remember this well: use your iron head, which is only fit to be my chamber pot, to firmly remember my last words, because the bounty hunters who are still alive will chase you to every corner of the galaxy and melt you into a pool of molten iron!]

The audience was deeply moved by this poignant farewell speech, which had a distinctly hunting-like feel to it.

"Alas, this is also someone who suffered a tragedy and embarked on a path of revenge."

"I think I'm starting to understand what this mission means..."

"When will this cycle of revenge end?"

"It's not about atoning for sins, nor about erasing past debts, but about ensuring that the next generation will not be trapped in this cycle of blood and fire."

"My God, this mission is too..."

At this moment, looking at the bounty hunter who was powerless to resist, even though the weapon system that had locked 0089 was on its back, it was possible to easily wipe him out with just a single pebble, thanks to the remaining annihilation plans in the database.

Faced with the choice of killing or not killing, 0089 ultimately chose to let the other party go.

Although the bounty hunters didn't seem to appreciate it, and although doing so wouldn't save Thona, none of that mattered.

In this world that pushes you to use violence, 0089 has, for the first time, the power to choose.

Afterwards, Shemo said that this choice was proof of 0089's growth.

After that, 0089 also searched the bounty hunter's wanted poster and found that Vanguard 0089's status was - dead.

Chapter 480 All Causes Begin with Me

After seeing the bounty poster for 0089 marked as dead in the plot, viewers also thought of the bounty hunter who was let go.

"This must have been done by that bounty hunter."

Although they said they couldn't simply wipe the slate clean, they still helped the Good Gone with the bounty.

"However, I think the bounty hunter still harbors hatred for the mechs who killed his brother, but he chooses to keep that hatred to himself and not bring it to others."

"Actually, after choosing to give up killing, 0089 was already dead, and what came back to life was the Good Death."

"The anti-organic equation doesn't oppose organic life; it's essentially dead."

"Both sides have essentially let each other off the hook; perhaps this is a form of balance."

"Is it because the Good Deeds Procedure is relatively advanced that it allows you to choose whether or not to execute the procedure?"

In the end, only Shemo and 0089 remained on this journey.

As it continued on its journey, 0089 began to examine its own condition.

Something stopped the killing, stopped the antimatter equation from running.

At that moment, 0089 understood that there was indeed a power beyond killing.

I request to be ordained and to study further.

Then, Shama bestowed upon 0089 the Five Precepts of Danlun and recited the precepts.

I came from emptiness and stillness, and was born for the sake of all beings; therefore, I neither harm nor multiply.

[Having extinguished my afflictions and seen the poison of karmic consequences, I am neither greedy nor angry.]

I know that suffering is real and that birth and death arise from causes and conditions; therefore, I do not become negligent and await Nirvana.

Thus, 0089 was given a Dharma name and passed away peacefully.

An omnic that broke the anti-organic equation command and decided to seek power beyond killing was born.

Seeing this scene, Screw's eyes lit up.

From the moment Shakyamuni was persuaded by the power of killing, he had been paying attention to this thinking machine, especially when Shakyamuni chose to let the bounty hunter go.

Choice—that's a wonderful concept.

Because of doubt, there is choice; because of choice, we can break free from the programs written in the underlying logic.

Just as Slugum was lost in his own thoughts, the final turn of events occurred between Sudatta and Samothrace.

A group of excited Annihilation Gang members set their sights on the Erudite Society's spaceship. After eliminating everyone else, only these last two remained.

This time, instead of using weapons, Sudatta stepped forward to persuade them.

【Esteemed benefactors, we were not carrying any valuables, and our only spaceship was destroyed by your attack. Logically: killing us will bring us no benefit.】

But the Annihilation Gang, who revel in destruction, clearly wouldn't heed the advice.

Seeing that a conflict was about to erupt, Shema looked at Sudatta with a pleading expression, not wanting Sudatta to break his vows because of this.

Shemo: [Do you remember our purpose? A monk must deliver the petition to the celestial vessel—but it doesn't have to be me.]

It was clear that Samadhi wanted to sacrifice himself in exchange for the departure of Sugata, but the final result was obvious: Sugata rejected the offer.

Good Death: [Conclusion: Everyone has the right to make choices.]

In the logic of the Good Death, fulfilling the petition and protecting Samadhi take precedence over all other processes.

Based on the above objectives, the conclusion is: break the precepts and obliterate the self.

[Initiating inverse organic equation calculations.]

The scene of this action revealed the origin of the previous 102 corpses, eliciting sighs from the audience.

"The Good Gone One has fully matured, and executes the command of destruction not out of birth but as the soul of the organism!"

"So, most of those 102 corpses were killed by the Annihilation Gang? That really scared me to death."

"Damn them! These destructive idiots, you could open fire on them if you saw them in the galaxy, let alone think they're acting in self-defense."

"The episode that most strongly supports the anti-organic equation!"

"You deliberately broke the rules and chose to activate the anti-organic equation to protect Shemo, Hajishan, you bastard..."

Finally, looking at the corpses scattered on the ground, Good Death fell silent.

This is the first time the annihilation command from the anti-organic equation has failed to provide me with positive feedback.

Throughout the carnage, the system felt like it was operating in an empty void, much like what organic life might describe as a sense of guilt.

[Conclusion: I am no longer a disciple of Tanrin-ji Temple, but merely a sinner. However, there is still one last monk here.]

Let's go and fulfill the petition.

Killing is to protect life, killing karma is not killing people.

After reading this passage, everyone present was deeply shocked, including Yu Kong, who began to mourn the martyred monks.

However, although the matter has been clarified, at this critical juncture, Yu Kong simply cannot allow a Bu Liren to regain his eligibility to participate in the competition. Forcing him onto the stage would only incite fear of Danlun Temple among all the spectators.

Shemo understood all of this, but she was very unwilling to accept it.

Along the way, everyone even gave their lives for the sake of the precepts, and no one knows what happened in the end.

Seeing this, the Buddha began to express his opinion.

[The Immortal Boat refuses to trust Danlun Temple, nor does it offer them any explanation of its plans. As a result, the conflict will never be resolved, and the cycle of bloodshed and fire will continue indefinitely.]

【Ms. Yukong, although I am no longer a monk of Danlun Temple, I will show you my determination in order to fulfill Shama's wish.】

The next moment, the screen went black.

When survival pressure exceeds a certain threshold, the bodies of organic life will choose the wrong strategy. They shut themselves off, lose their voice, give up consciousness, and even stop thinking.

Then, a piercing roar will awaken your consciousness, carrying the horn of the Mechanical Empire and the blood and fire that have flowed through thousands of Amber Ages.

This passage can also be seen as Emperor Rupert's view on organic life.

Then, a sudden alarm sounded, and the surroundings began to change abruptly. All the golden figures in the prison seemed to be rebelling and began to surround them.

That was the complete activation of the anti-organic equation!

This scene drew gasps from the audience.

"My God, is this power really that domineering? Just this small machine can move the golden statues in the entire Prison of Darkness!"

"The Jurchens have rebelled again!"

"Even the remnants of the empire possess such power; no wonder the Mechanical Empire was able to sweep across the world back then!"

"As expected of Vanguard 0089!"

"This is too strong!"

"Annihilate!"

"Byd got infected even through the screen, right?"

"Swarovski, who just happened to be on the Immortal Ship: What the hell is going on?"

Not only were the Jin people controlled, but even the Jade Emperor's communications were cut off. It can be said that everything was in the hands of this Rupert Empire's vanguard.

The Well-Gone One: [But what I want to show is not the desire to kill. For above killing, I have found a greater power...]

There will always be choices, and I will choose the better one.

As he spoke, the icon on the screen of Good Departure switched to a red power button, and along with his words, an ominous feeling lingered in everyone's hearts.

[Fight to the death, igniting the flames of war; receiving vows, bearing golden chains. Life and death are decided by fate; accumulating evil deeds yields good results.]

What is the true nature of self? All arising from conditions is myself. Originally illusory and without attachment, so do not say that human nature is impure.

This reflection and insight that Sussin shared resonated deeply with the audience, like a resounding bell.

Then, amidst the high-frequency overload shrieks, all mechanical creations were released from the curse of the anti-organic equation.

And Vanguard 0089, having passed away, also severed its own circuit and returned to emptiness.

Thus, the story of the deceased sacrificing his life for the celestial vessel also brought a profound and soul-stirring shock and sorrow to the audience.
