People are always pursuing satisfaction, and people are always chasing Utopia.
Elizabeth did not go directly to the dream of settling in Paris because she wanted to see more.
Transcend time and space, step into a higher dimension and manipulate the cracks of time and space. The material world is a particle for Elizabeth, so uniform and compact. Now she can send rivers and mountains on earth to outer space through cracks, and move future materials to primitive society. With her maturity and learning, this ability will continue to grow. Maybe one day, Elizabeth can play with the stars, such as stirring the gravel in the plate, At that time, for her, the long life of the universe was just an ordinary sigh.
Elizabeth gazed at human history, starting from the tree under the ancient ape. For thousands of years, she had a skimming look. She witnessed that ancient humans built the first temple in Anatolia, Turkey, and witnessed the launch of industrial machines and the global expansion of capital. Elizabeth strolled on the roof of the winter palace when the guns of the Avril sounded. When the red flag fell, she also ran along with the wild Carnival crowd in the snowy street. She was in Gorky village in 1924, Bolivia in 1967, Burkina Faso in 1987
Human civilization has given its own answer for nearly 12000 years. Later, Elizabeth has seen destroyed planets and prosperous space cities. The tide of history rolls forward. Many things need not be said. The waves can be stopped and the spark can be put out, but the tsunami cannot be stopped and the wildfire cannot be put out. The flash in the pan of new things is not the destruction of meteors, but the horn of the new world.
Elizabeth now understood what was in Booker's heart and what pulled him up from the wounded knee river. After witnessing and knowing everything, she understood that her existence was actually insignificant to the whole process of history.
Indeed, she has the ability to throw the earth into the sun or pull the moon to the sea level. She can destroy mankind or create a garden of Eden to feed mankind. She can change the present by preventing the death of historical figures, or layout the past and reverse the future. Elizabeth has this ability, and she has the corresponding knowledge in her endless study.
However, she is still insignificant to history.
Only if we don't participate in the human process can we be God. Once we participate, we can't go against the laws of history.
If Elizabeth stands on the shore, she can witness how human beings use revolution to redeem all the suffering of time, so that all painful and lost souls have a destination. At this time, she will not be bound by any ethics.
However, if she tries to participate in changing a tragedy, it will inevitably become a part of history and play a role in its process. She can use great efforts to reach the future she wants to see, but only limited to this. The human history with God's participation is only one of countless possibilities. For God, participation itself is the biggest failure.
What an absurd result. In the face of absurdity, Elizabeth did not know what to say or do for a moment.
She wanted to know how her peers dealt with the situation.
So she went to find lutes and his brother first.
Female lutes: "Oh, long time no see."
Male lutes: not too long
Woman: "for her, it's like this. For us, it's just a blink of an eye."
Man: "all viewers can say so. In fact, all the girl's experiences and thoughts are not memorable. They are so dull that they only need to be taken in one stroke. "
Woman: "to see history itself is a great feat. Many readers can see the entries of the books in their hands, but they are at a loss about their own history. From this situation, what is the difference between becoming a God or not? "
Elizabeth asked, "how can I face this result? How did you do it? "
Lutes said in unison, "do nothing."
Woman: "or do everything."
Man: "if you don't do anything, you can do anything. Go to Paris, eat a piece of bread by the Seine River, then go to ancient China to see fireworks and listen to Celtic Songs. We can do all these, but only this. "
Woman: "you can ask others what is worth a God's long years."
So Elizabeth found Lu Zongping again.
He opened a bar on an alien planet with countless guests from the universe.
When Elizabeth went to the bar, cyber hacker V and a group of good friends were drinking tequila. Saiya's monkey king was chatting with whirlpool Naruto. The Guanyin master with a coffee cup smiled and recommended horseshoe care suits to little Ma Baoli. All kinds of strange and reasonable scenes brightened people's eyes.
Lu Zongping saw a girl as gentle as the sea coming and said with a smile, "what would you like to drink? I'll take it. "
Elizabeth ordered a cup of coffee, and curious customers around would inquire about her origin. For a moment, it was not like entering a bar, but more like attending a banquet that never ended.
"What is this place?" She asked curiously“ The bar, the wonderful universe distribution center, and the backstage lounge. " Lu Zongping said, "after the end of the story, the characters should always have a place to go, otherwise it is no different from death. You are welcome to come anytime. Many people will want to know you. " Elizabeth turned her head and saw a DND spirit sucking monster raise a glass to her, and the spasmodic tentacles tried to look friendly. She smiled and nodded in response“ It's interesting here. Is that your answer? "“ What answer? "“ About understanding everything and finding your own destination. To tell you the truth, in fact... "It's just like ordinary people, isn't it? The fact is that for those who read the story, the characters in the story are only the epitome of reality. We jump out of time and space, but we can't jump out of the framework. We surpass human civilization, but we don't escape human symbolic narration. From this point of view, God and man are the products of two classes. God is just an unrestrained person. But there is restraint, and God is only a man. "“ Interesting statement. " Lu Zongping once again showed his often stingy smile. He could see that he was in a good mood. "How about finding the answer in his heart?" Elizabeth nodded back with a bright smile, but added, "I see, but I have another question. Why did you help Booker? " Lu Zongping blinked mysteriously, "didn't you ask me to help?" Elizabeth winked too. "So it is. Thank you."“ Will a spatiotemporal closed loop change if a little variable is added? Now it seems that the answer is clear. " Lu Zongping was satisfied. Elizabeth sighed. "Yes, the answer is clear."
