Accompanied by the murmur that was almost dreamy, the mist lingering on the "Black Dream" clouds' face slowly melted and flowed down, like two turbid streams crisscrossing his constantly trembling face.

And his eyes, which were always hidden behind the black fog, were finally visible in front of Li Yao and Chu Zhixiao.

Neither Li Yao nor Chu Zhixiao had ever seen such clear, affectionate, and painful eyes.

Even if they just think about how much pain and torture the soul hidden behind these eyes is, it makes them feel sour.

"The only reason that supports me to struggle in hell until today is that my family can spend the rest of their lives in a beautiful dream."

The heart of the clouds allowed the black fog to melt and she flowed freely, saying, "But now, Eternal Light has become like this, and all the dreams of the family have been disillusioned. They may remember everything in the past, perhaps become a vicious beast, perhaps be killed by the guards when they hit the bridge, or perhaps be blown to pieces in the self-destruction of Eternal Light.

"Haha, hehehehe, since that's the case, what's the point of everything I do? Why should I continue to bow down to Master Xixiang and waving my tail like a dog to beg for mercy?"

He walked towards Chu Zhixiao step by step.

"Calm down, Black Dream."

Chu Zhixiao was extremely unwilling to be an enemy of this difficult teammate and said hurriedly, "You don't think that all this was caused by us, right?"

"Don't worry, I won't take my anger on others. I know that all this has nothing to do with you, and you are just a pitiful tool."

Yun Haixin's steps paused a little, and the sadness between her eyebrows became stronger and stronger. "But the Puppet King promised me that as long as I obey his orders and help him complete a small task - that is, delay you, help him break your spiritual defense, and let your brain open completely, he will save my wife and children and let them continue to live an ignorant and happy life."

"How is that possible?"

Chu Zhixiao screamed, "You actually believe such a clumsy lie? The Eternal Light has collapsed. Even Master Zhishan used the resources of the entire Holy Alliance to copy a new "Eternal Light" at such a critical moment. With the puppet king, the public enemy of the universe who is anxious all day long, how can he protect the safety of your wife and children and give them illusory happiness? It is impossible. He will never be able to control such a large-scale experimental ship as the "Eternal Light", and there are not so sufficient resources to maintain an illusory paradise! Such a simple truth, you will not have imagined, wake up, black dream!"

Yun Haixin smiled, grinning with a grin, silently laughing, even more ugly than the wailing ghosts in Jiuyou Huangquan.

"That's right, of course I can think of such a simple truth, but the puppet king still convinced me."

Yun Haixin pointed to his temple, "The Puppet King pointed out the blind spots of our thinking - who said that a dream paradise like "Eternal Light" must be built in the real world? Since it is a dream paradise, it is better to build it directly in the dream?

"Yes, compared with the resources of the entire Holy Alliance controlled by Master Zhishan, the resources that the Puppet King can control are naturally very few, and it is impossible to maintain such a huge "Eternal Light Project". However, it is still possible to just hijack a small and medium-sized starship, carry enough resources that last for hundreds of years, and wander in the depths of the starry sea, where no one can find it?

"The vast sea of ​​stars, and finding a mere starship is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. The former real human empire spent a lot of troops to search for the last starship of the Star Sea Republic, the Firefly, for a thousand years, and in vain.

"And this starship controlled by the puppet king has a very high degree of automation and does not require many crew members to operate. It carries a batch of special cargo - the human brain."

"Human...brain?"

Chu Zhixiao couldn't believe it, "What does it mean?"

"It's very simple. The Puppet King cannot save the flesh and blood of my wife and children. These things are too resource-consuming and there is no need."

Yun Haixin explained, "But he can at least rescue the brains of my wife and children, place their brains into a special biochemical bin, inject high-energy nutrient solution and nerve interaction solution, and then connect various crystallines to give different stimuli. From this, the souls of my wife and children can be ‘uploaded’ to a virtual world, which the puppet king calls the ‘spiritual world’.

"The spiritual world is like a colorful, beautiful and luxurious virtual game. It doesn't consume much resources at all. Just a little computing power is enough to maintain their happiness, ten times more, extremely happy than on the "Eternal Light"!

"The Puppet King can even scan the structure of my brain, use computing power to simulate my soul characteristics, create another me in the virtual world, let the virtual wife and I meet and fall in love, and the family live happily together."

"this--"

Chu Zhixiao's face turned pale and could not speak for a long time.

Li Yao also felt numb on his scalp. The puppet king, Lu Qingchen, was indeed deadly and had to realize his "Virtual Spirit Plan" wherever he went!

"Why make such a fuss? You should know that this 'brain in the tank' technology is quite mature in the Holy Alliance."

Yun Haixin said lightly, "Just in the 'Devil Children' project' you were born, there are also a large number of Devil Children who have lost their bodies and their brains are still alive, but they are suffering endless pain, and my wife and children will enjoy eternal happiness, that's all.

"I have a little more open mind. Today, when spiritual weapons prosthetic limbs and spiritual weapons prosthetic bodies are popular, many people who are seriously injured will replace their body organs. Some seriously disabled patients have lost 99% of their flesh and blood, leaving only their brains carried by spiritual weapons prosthetic bodies. Isn't that normal?"

"But even if a person loses 99% of his flesh and blood body, even his brain is lost. He becomes a ghost cultivator and has to rely on spiritual weapons to travel through the human world. At least everything he feels is true!"

Chu Zhixiao gritted her teeth and said, "But you want to turn your wife and children into the 'brain in the vat' and live in a false world forever. Do you really have a clear mind and know what you are doing?"

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Yun Haixin was stunned for a long time, and suddenly hugged her stomach and laughed extremely crazy.

Black tears slid down from the corner of his mouth and dripped on his feet, like black blood beads.

"What is reality, what is false, where is the boundary between truth and falsehood?"

Yun Haixin looked up in a crazy laugh, her eyes so clear that Li Yao and Chu Zhixiao could not see directly, "The Eternal Light is composed of matter and is real, but are the lives of the people on the Eternal Light?

"The Holy Alliance is also real, but the lies of Master Sui Ye really make everyone believe that everything that is brainwashed is the "real" you pursue and defend?

"Oh, my hometown, the real human empire is real, but what is the meaning of the truth of the jungle, the intrigue, the bloody and cruelty? Who would be willing to let their family and descendants live in such a "reality" forever?

"If there are only two paths to go, the illusory paradise and the real hell, Major, tell me how to choose, I think it is not difficult, right?

"Or, teach me, if I don't listen to the puppet king's bewitching, how should I save my wife and children? Will I go to Master Zhishan again to shake my tail and beg for mercy, begging them to arrange my wife and children onto another experimental ship? Regardless of whether there is a second "Eternal Light" in the Holy Alliance, even if there is one, it is a false dream. What is the difference between it and the brain in the jar of the puppet king?

"How to choose, how to go, how to save me, how to teach me!"

"But--"

Chu Zhixiao's eyes and heart were a little confused, and he reluctantly said, "Don't deceive yourself anymore. The Puppet King is just using you. His purpose is to fight against each other, both sides will hurt each other, so that our spiritual defense can break down at the same time, so that his power can easily invade our brains and deeply analyze our souls!

"When he really achieves his goal, who can guarantee that he will fulfill his promise? Even if he wants to fulfill his promise, how long can your wife and children stay alone on a starship in the form of a brain in the tank?"

"The concept of time in the virtual world is different from that in their perception, it should be no problem to live comfortably for hundreds of years, right? What happens in a few hundred years is not something I can worry about. Perhaps the virtual world will collapse in an instant, and they will die without pain, turn into a wisp of dust among the stars, and reunite with me who has long been destroyed in ashes in another dimension - for a husband and father, is there any better arrangement than this?"

Another stiff smile appeared on Yun Haixin's face, "As for deceiving yourself, yes, I really can't guarantee that the Puppet King can fulfill his promise and that it's okay to say that I'm deceiving myself.

"But what about you, Major?

"I'm deceiving myself, what are you?

"What is the difference between the lies of the Puppet King and the lies of the Master Sui Shan? I cannot guarantee that the Puppet King will definitely fulfill the promise. You can guarantee that the lies of the Master Sui Shan is the truth. Will those damn "gods" really wake up and lead us to eternal light?

"Farting is all nonsense. The gods and Buddhas in the heavens have long been dead. Now, there is only me in this vast universe, and only us fragile, confused, blind, bloodthirsty, crazy, and greedy humans!

"You are actually very clear, just as I know, everything that covers us is a lie, but whenever a slight light appears in front of you, no matter how far away or slim it is, even if you know it is fake or your own illusion, you must pursue, seize and protect it at all costs. This is human being, this is our sad human being!

"After all, whether it is the Nascent Soul or the God-turned-god, the Demonic Child, Major, Black Dream, and the Killing Heavenly Girl, we are all the same. We are all small characters, small characters, small tricks, being deceived and manipulated is our destiny. If not, so what?

"Even if I'm deceiving myself, don't expose me, let me keep a glimmer of hope - as long as I can do everything I can to break your spiritual defense, let the puppet king drive straight into and reach the deepest part of your soul, my family will be able to get three to five hundred years of happiness. This is... the last thing I can do for them!"

Yun Haixin's eyes were once again covered by black fog.
