Chapter 475 The Mystery of the Lord of the Armor, Greek Philosophy

, !

【Testing completed】

[This simulation is closely related to the powerful life forms of the Jiugong level. In view of the current energy quality problem that has been recovered by the Heart of Time and Space, the error rate of this simulation is -62.3%]

[Current number of simulations remaining: 9]

"62.3%, more than half of the error rate, this is too high, no wonder it will simulate me as a fool who will not run away when the situation is not good... Speaking of dealing with the Jiugong level, the impact on the simulation is so serious. ."

Li Guanqi looked helpless.

As for the murder of Tokugawa Shinji?

After stealing the treasure, he killed people and silenced him. He didn't feel any surprise or anger during normal operations. It was normal, and he had already guessed it.

"I have to think about whether there is any turning point. If not... then I can only give up this mission, go to the Tulip Empire, and ask Her Majesty the Queen to protect me."

Li Guanqi was lost in thought.

"Even if Tokugawa Shinji finally finds me, in the face of Her Majesty the Queen, is it possible that this guy can kill me?"

"Probably not. For Master's sake, Her Majesty the Queen will not sit idly by."

"But the question is... this matter, what else can't be turned around?"

Li Guanqi looked at the light curtain panel and read it from beginning to end, and found that there seemed to be nothing that could be changed.

Facing the nine palace-level Tokugawa Shinji, it is a completely unsolvable situation.

In fact, if there was no simulator, he would not even think about this matter, and would not take care of this task at all, and immediately went to the Tulip Empire to find the Queen to hug his thighs.

After all, it is Tokugawa Shinji of the Nine Palaces.

Mixing with the Nine Palaces is too dangerous.

On the last trip to the weird world, there was no simulator, so Li Guanqi, who started to seek stability in everything, could hide as far as he could from this situation.

Facing the Jiugong level, he had to rely on the simulator to do it.

"Wait, a puzzle?"

Li Guanqi looked at the pieces of simulated information on the light curtain panel, and suddenly raised his brows.

It seems that the only place to make a fuss about this whole thing is those Greek riddles.

The problem is that the simulator doesn't show the puzzle content.

"Hey, time and space man."

Thinking of this, Li Guanqi couldn't help looking at the light screen panel and asked, "Can't you show the content of those puzzles? I want to see the specific content."

[This is an extremely subtle simulation content, which will simulate specific character actions and character dialogue details. It will also greatly improve the simulation accuracy as I just said, but at the same time, it will also consume more energy. Simulation 1 times, it will cost 1.5 simulation times, are you sure? 】

"Sure."

Li Guanqi nodded.

The number of simulations is for use, and it is meaningless to save.

After the number of simulations was exhausted, he changed his behavior to the same as last time, seeking stability in everything, and running when he encountered someone who was stronger than himself.

But now there are still times for the simulator, so you have to rely on the simulator wave!

[Simulation reset. 】

[(…) Repeat skipped]

[In the ruins of the castle, there are traces of Greek writing everywhere. In the deepest part of the ruins, you encounter the first stone slab engraved with Greek puzzles. 】

[You start translating the slate puzzle, translating the Greek engraved on it into Chinese. 】

[The puzzle is as follows. 】

[Q: How many genders are there in the world? 】

[Red answer: two. 】

[Green answer: three. 】

[Blue answer: five. 】

[Yellow answer: I don't know, I'm new here. 】

"???"

Li Guanqi looked confused.

"What kind of ghost puzzle is this Nima?!"

[Shinji Tokugawa begins to hypnotize you to translate. 】

Li Guanqi was still stunned, but the simulation process of the simulator continued, and black boxes appeared one after another.

[After some thought, Tokugawa Shinji said: "The old gods are also human, and the normal gender of human beings is only two kinds of men and women. If you count the rare intersex people, there are three kinds, but if you count the other more There are far more than five genders in the psychological definition, so the answers of red, green and blue are not completely correct...]

Seeing this, Li Guanqi seemed to understand something at once.

Shun Kong said that the first owner of this armor was a Western god.

Well, from the west...

It seems to be very particular about gender over there...

["It should be the yellow answer - I don't know, I'm new here!" Tokugawa Shinji said firmly. 】

[After speaking, Tokugawa Shinji slapped the yellow stele next to the puzzle slate with a slap in the face. 】

[The puzzle slate glows with golden light. 】

[A space portal appeared, and Shinji Tokugawa successfully solved the puzzle. 】

"Tokugawa, your mother is really talented..."

Li Guanqi was at a loss for words.

Where is the serious puzzle set up by the owner of the battle armor, this is obviously a joke.

As for Shinji Tokugawa, a human from the New Age era, although the method of exclusion is basically adopted, but in the end, he is connected to this from above... No.

If the 21st century is an era, the apocalyptic period is an era, and the period of the gods is an era, then this stalk should belong to the stalk of the previous era.

This guy is really talented.

[Just after entering, a powerful gossip-level demon species rushed toward the face, but was slapped to death by the Jiugong-level Tokugawa Shinji, and he didn't even bother to deal with the corpse. Turn around and move forward. 】

[You look at the flesh and soul of that powerful demon, and you are very envious. 】

[But your plundering technique obviously cannot be exposed, so I have to ask Tokugawa Shinji to give you the gossip-level corpse. 】

[You said to Tokugawa Shinji's advancing back: "Senior Tokugawa, I wonder if you can give the corpse of this gossip-level demon to the junior? After all, the gossip-level demon blood may not matter to you, but to me very precious."]

[Hearing your request, Tokugawa Shinji thought for a while, then nodded, walked to the corpse of the monster, and put it in the space necklace, he didn't bother to pay attention to you from beginning to end. 】

【You are a little depressed. 】

[But at the same time, your mood is getting heavier. 】

[Shinji Tokugawa refuses to even give you the corpse that he was too lazy to take, so the remuneration he promised can still be counted? 】

[Besides, he can really let you leave alive? 】

[Worry spreads in your heart. 】

[You start to think about ways to escape. 】

[While thinking about it, you and Tokugawa Shinji continue to explore and move forward in this place. 】

[This space is a hidden space that is folded up. There are many powerful monsters guarding the way. The lowest is a seven-star monster group, and there are many gossip-level ones. In the end, it rushed out with a nine-level horror. Spell. 】

[After some fighting, Tokugawa Shinji succeeded in beheading this nine palace-level curse spirit. 】

[You have come to the end of this space. 】

[You have seen an ancient stone slab. 】

[On the slate, a puzzle is engraved in Greek. 】

【The puzzle is as follows】

[Q: What is the meaning of life? 】

[Red answer: It doesn't make sense, just die. 】

[Green answer: become the strongest. 】

[Blue answer: It is meaningless, but if you live, you may be able to find it. 】

[Yellow answer: eat, drink, enjoy life, get the most wealth, play the most luxurious things, and go to the most beautiful woman. 】

[Shinji Tokugawa continues to hypnotize you, asks you to translate the puzzle, and then stands by himself, lost in thought, as if thinking about the answer to the puzzle. 】

"...Let's not play tricks with puzzles, and start thinking about philosophy?"

Li Guanqi looked strange.

It's really "Greek".

So, back to the puzzle.

what is the meaning of life?

There should be no answer to this question.

Even if there is, it is a bunch of subjective answers.

Even experts and philosophers cannot give a single answer to such a question.

Because...you think the meaning of life is like this, it doesn't matter, but why do you think that the meaning of my life is also the way you think it is?

Therefore, the key to this puzzle should lie not in philosophy, but in... guessing the mind.

Who can guess the mind of the owner of this battle armor correctly, who can answer this riddle correctly.

"Um?"

Li Guanqi was taken aback.

It was only then that he discovered that the light curtain panel had not refreshed new analog information for more than ten seconds.

The Heart of Time and Space has not simulated the next message for a while.

Li Guanqi did not urge, but looked at the light curtain panel, and began to think.

what is the meaning of life?

Not at all?

Become the strongest?

Although not, but if you live, maybe you can find it?

Eat and drink?

The four options given by the master of the battle armor seem to be wrong, but they all seem to be right.

- Is life meaningless at all?

Some people feel that life is meaningless, because their life is a mess of gray, and they have lived in misery and tragedy since childhood. For them, living is torture, and death is not as liberating as death.

Can you say they were wrong?

But the life they encountered was what allowed them to draw such a conclusion.

Can't tell right or wrong.

- Become the strongest?

Indeed, Li Guanqi's goal has always been to become the strongest.

But this does not mean that he feels that these four words are the meaning of life.

The reason why he wants to be the strongest is because after crossing into the new era, all the things he has experienced and the various characters he has met have made him understand a truth - the weak cannot decide their own destiny, they can only do their own destiny. Marionette.

He didn't want that.

That's why he wants to be the strongest, with the ability to "do whatever he wants", to protect his lover and his parents, and to stick to his free heart.

Therefore, becoming the strongest is the goal, but in fact, it is essentially a need. He needs to become the strongest to accomplish something, rather than becoming stronger purely for "becoming the strongest".

To be the strongest is not the meaning of his life.

——Although not, but if you live, maybe you can find it?

This answer is a little weird.

Isn't this a kind of rotten mentality?

Although I don't know what the meaning of life is, it is better to die than to live. Anyway, I will live. Maybe one day I will find the meaning of life.

Well, Li Guanqi feels that although this answer is a bit rotten, but really speaking, this answer, perhaps in comparison, is a little more "correct" than the previous two answers.

- Eat, drink and have fun?

Get the most wealth, play the most luxurious things, go to the most beautiful woman, and enjoy life to the fullest.

Is this the meaning of life?

Li Guanqi really wants to "enjoy life to the fullest", but for him, to achieve this goal, it is not about taking the most money, playing the most luxurious things, and going to the most beautiful woman. .

Because of this, this answer seems to him to be the closest to the correct answer, but also the least close to the correct answer.

uh, wait?

"However, what is the 'correct answer' to the question of the meaning of life?"

Li Guanqi frowned slightly.

Philosophical issues are really not suitable for careful study, and if you study them carefully, it is easy to get into the nitty-gritty.

"Shinji Tokugawa... How did you choose the correct answer, old man?"

"Dude time and space?"

After thinking about it for a long time, Li Guanqi finally looked at the light curtain panel and asked in surprise, "Are you stuck? Why didn't you move for a long time."

[(I just think that this philosophical question is really interesting. Human beings always come up with some problems that trouble themselves, but I have to say that it is really interesting, so I temporarily interrupted the simulation and wanted to wait. Wait to see what your answer is)]

"My answer..."

Li Guanqi smiled and said, "It may be a bit tacky to say, but for me, the meaning of my life, Li Guanqi, is to be filial to my parents while watching the wonderful world, and then find a beloved woman and have two boys and one girl. Big fat baby, and then end my life in a house full of happy children and grandchildren, it's as simple as that, there is no big pursuit."

[(Ordinary and beautiful, the meaning of life has no correct answer, and there is no distinction between high and low, I think as a human being, this kind of life is very good)]

[(So, the answer to the puzzle you chose is yellow - eat, drink, and have fun? After all, out of the four options, this one seems to be the closest to your idea.)]

"Do not."

Li Guanqi shook his head, "If I want to choose the answer to the puzzle, I won't choose the yellow answer."

【(Oh? Then what is your choice?)】

"Puzzle, what is a puzzle?"

Li Guanqi smiled, "Since the puzzle is out, it must have an answer, otherwise it is not called a question, and it is directly called an unsolved puzzle, that is to say, if there is a correct answer, it is a puzzle.

But there is no so-called correct answer to the question of "the meaning of life".

So this puzzle slate... If I had to choose, I wouldn't choose any of the red, green, blue, and yellow steles.

Because, since there is no answer, this puzzle is not established, should not exist as a puzzle slate, and should be erased.

This is one aspect I consider.

On the other hand, it is out of speculation on the mind of the person who asked the question.

From the previous gender puzzle, I suspect that the person who asked the question likes to 'joke' a lot, so this philosophical puzzle of his may also have no serious answer.

Therefore, if I want to choose, smashing the slate of the topic is the correct choice for this topic! "

【(…)】

[(Interesting, let’s see how Tokugawa Shinji, who selected the correct option, answered this question.)]

[(simulation continues)]

[After thinking for ten minutes, Shinji Tokugawa walked past the four red, green, blue and yellow steles one by one, but finally came to the question slate, raised his hand, did not exert any force, just pushed it slightly. 】

【"boom!"】

[The slate fell in response, golden light erupted, and the entire space began to shake violently! 】

[A space portal slowly opens. 】

【He succeeded. 】

[Regardless of the four answer stone tablets, knocking down the puzzle stone tablet is the correct answer to this philosophical puzzle. 】

"Looks like I guessed right."

Li Guanqi nodded lightly.

Of course, the old guy Tokugawa Shinji also guessed right.

[Tokugawa Shinji took you and stepped into the space passage, and in the vast expanse of whiteness, he saw the divine weapon suspended in mid-air—the battle armor belonging to the ancient gods! 】

[In the armor of the gods, there is a phantom of a tall young man. It calls itself 'Aris', which is the consciousness of this pair of gods' battle armor, and the three words 'Aris' are his first generation master. The name given to him is exactly the same as that of the ancient Greek god of war, which symbolizes that the owner of this armor will be invincible. 】

["The strongest one, you are the nine palace level, and you have passed the test set by the master, and you are eligible to be recognized as my master." Ares said. 】

[Shinji Tokugawa smiled very happily. 】

[He took the battle armor and took you away. 】

[Halfway through, you called on Shun Kong to use the ability to "teleport space" and fled to the border area of ​​the Ayabel Prairie, because you felt that after Tokugawa Shinji got the artifact, he would never leave you alive. Leaving the ruins of the castle is your death. 】

[With the power of Shun Kong's artifact, you escaped from Shinji Tokugawa's claws, making it impossible for the other party to track you. 】

[You successfully helped Tokugawa Shinji get the divine weapon, but it was a part-time job for nothing. 】

[On the second day, you went to a city in the grasslands and did not dare to go back to the Sakura Shogunate. You didn’t even look for Sophia. You just thought about taking the teleportation array to the Tulip Empire to find Her Majesty the Queen and seek shelter. 】

[Since Shun Kong has never been to the Tulip Empire and doesn't know the spatial coordinates, you can't let Shunkong take you there directly. 】

[And there is a lack of tickets in the city, and there has never been a teleportation array to the Tulip Empire, not even a Wanxiang teleportation array here. 】

[You spent nine days leisurely in this prairie city. Apart from experiencing the customs, you hardly encountered anything worth mentioning. 】

[Current number of simulations remaining: 7.5 times]

【Analog error rate testing...】

【Testing completed】

[This simulation is closely related to the powerful life forms of the Jiugong level. In view of the current energy quality problem that has been recovered by the Heart of Space-Time, but this simulation has increased energy consumption to improve the accuracy rate, the error rate of this simulation is— 0.01%】

[In other words, the accuracy rate of this simulation is as high as 99.9%, which can be trusted. 】

"I'll just say, under normal circumstances, it's impossible for me not to run ahead of time, although I think it's still a bit late."

Seeing this, Li Guanqi couldn't help nodding lightly.

[Both simulations have ended, the second simulation is still an ultra-detailed simulation, so what? Did you find any way out? Or... you want to give up this matter, instead of going to Tokugawa Shinji, go directly to the Tulip Empire to find the Queen to hug her thighs? 】

"how is this possible?"

Li Guanqi grinned, "In both simulations, Shinji Tokugawa chose the correct answer, but we still don't know what would happen if he chose the wrong answer."

【Oh? 】

[But when you were translating the Greek puzzle, you were forced to hypnotize, and there was no way to mislead him by mistranslating. How do you make Tokugawa Shinji choose the wrong answer? 】

[After all, Tokugawa Shinji solves the mystery, except for letting you be the translator, everything else can be done by yourself. 】

"Then when I'm hypnotized, I'll make mistakes in translation, right?"

Li Guanqi smiled and turned to leave.

"Wait for me, time and space buddy, I'll go back when I go, and I have to do the third simulation."
