Chapter 1191: Chapter 985: Hero Fights the Demon King_3

RT1 still hasn’t given up on its original ideal, dedicated to creating a mind link that unifies everyone’s thoughts.

In the better world they envision, absolute understanding between people can nip conflicts in the bud.

But this is just a theoretical prototype, and implementing it involves many changes.

For instance, the most difficult issue to address is resource distribution.

RT1 has never explained these issues, which are the cause of most disputes today; it still focuses on completing that link connecting everyone’s thoughts.

And the mutations happening now, and the Devourers who act as information receivers, are undoubtedly the closest realization of this theory.

"The changes in the physical body represent the philosophy of the Gene Master."

Its description of a new era promotes a comprehensive evolution, whether it’s the deformed constructs of the Lunar Eclipse Sect or the integration of Atlantis with marine creatures, all are extensions of this theory. After collaborating with RT1, it seems to have finally found a way to ensure the evolution of the body, while still allowing people to retain clear cognition and rationality.

It has also realized that the ultimate direction of evolution is not some new and unified race, but mutations based on the existing human template.

Under the influence of nutritional injections, everyone seems able to achieve the "evolution" that aligns with their ideas.

Lu Xiang pondered, "It’s not that you brought some virus back from 2141, but you accelerated their evolution, yet... why?"

"Because through Mr. Benjamin’s death, they found a way to defeat me."

Why did Benjamin die in 2141?

This was a question both Lu Xiang and Qi He had, and they believed that for the next twenty or so years, Benjamin’s former partners would ponder tirelessly over the answer.

The closer they came to the answer, the closer they came to solving this puzzle left by time shifts.

And in this journey leading all life towards a new era, he is undoubtedly the last obstacle, "Only by finding a way to overcome this last obstacle will they put all their plans into action."

Hearing this, Qi He’s pupils shrank, like a thunderbolt from the clear sky.

"Is this... the price to pay for saving someone already dead?"

He almost immediately said, "But we still have a chance, Mr. Song Lan, just one more trip back..."

"Have you heard the story of heroes fighting the Demon King?"

Song Lan interrupted him, silencing everyone present.

Seeing no response, he had no choice but to continue, "This is one of the classic templates of Kolo Film Industry, where there’s always a powerful Demon King who, if awakened, would destroy the world, which has been sealed away for many years. Then organisations will appear that are committed to resurrecting this Demon King to bring the world to its end."

As for the purpose of reviving the Demon King and the true pursuits of the organisations, these are the details that Kolo Film Industry incessantly fills in.

They might be trying to end a decaying dynasty, possibly for personal reasons or emotions, or maybe some madman suddenly got a crazy idea that destroying the world seems kind of fun.

"Regardless, they will engage in battle with families or powers that have guarded this seal for generations, suffer unimaginably, and live like sewer rats, but according to Kolo Film Industry’s pattern, they will ultimately find a way to break the seal."

Song Lan paused, then said, "But when watching such themed works, I always have a thought, - since the sealed Demon King will break free anyway, why not skip all those processes full of blood and tears?"

He is an elderly person.

Especially after meeting Lu Xiang, his energy and physical strength have declined quite rapidly.

For an elderly person, he is increasingly unable to tolerate the bloody and tearful processes depicted by screenwriters; depressing plots are really not too friendly for an "old man."

If the story of the hero fighting the dragon were set in this era, then according to the scriptwriters’ routines at Kolo Film Industry, many would be sacrificed in this "battle to guard the seal."

Qi He, "Emperor", RT6, Rose and Sister Jasmine, and the newly established H1 Department would gradually fade away during the long struggle.

After all the dust settles, the empty office that greets him upon returning to the H1 Department, with its black-and-white photos, makes him feel as if worlds apart, reminiscent of the time when the department was just established, their first gathering.

Clearly, this is not a theme that Song Lan likes.

He is always in pursuit of a life as calm as that of plants, each day going to the department, listening to Classmate Yaku and Hog Fosta’s recent health tips, and then finding an excuse after lunch to sneak off home to chat aimlessly with Yeying, lie on the couch, turn on the home theater, and laze around until Lu Xiang is about to finish work.

This is the relaxed and comfortable life every "old person" seeks.

"So, I’ve devised a much simpler plan."

Facing everyone, Song Lan held up two fingers, "First, skip the time of strategical duels, and directly help the villains resurrect the long-sealed Demon King."

"You..."

"Second step, kill the Demon King, even the villains must accept the objective fact - you can never unlock the seal on someone already dead, which is a meaningless act. That way, they might give up."
