Deep Sea Embers

Zhou Ming opened the door and quickly walked into his apartment. He immediately turned his head and looked at the window directly opposite the door.

There is still an eternal gray-white fog hanging outside the window, and the banging sound is like patient raindrops knocking on the glass window out of thin air. Although no one can be seen outside, the knocking sound itself proves that Visitor is standing at the window.

The moment Zhou Ming entered the room, he clearly sensed the aura standing in the window - it seemed that because of the last "connection", the aura was particularly clear.

When someone visits here, can they directly feel themselves on the "other side"?

With this thought in Zhou Ming's mind, he quickly walked towards the window. Almost as soon as he came to the window, Leigh Nora's familiar face appeared outside the window, and behind him was the same room. Familiar, classic and gorgeous bedroom.

The Frost Queen was still knocking on the glass patiently, her slightly hollow eyes reflecting the shining starlight. Zhou Ming immediately opened the window and greeted the only guest who would visit him here: "I'm glad to see you. Until you come back."

Please let me in." Le Nora confirmed, her eyes seemed to take a long time to focus on Zhou Ming correctly, and then she said in a slightly weak tone.

Zhou Ming instantly noticed that something was not right about the other party's situation, and immediately moved aside to get out of the way, while reaching out to help the Frost Queen.

The next moment, as Le Nora moved slightly sideways, he finally discovered the other party's empty left arm - not just the left arm,

Even including part of her shoulders, chest, waist and abdomen, almost one-third of her upper body was missing! It's like being swallowed up neatly by something!

What's even weirder is that there is no blood flowing out from the broken parts of her body. There is only a vague "light film" covering the incomplete fractures, and I don't know if it is an illusion. Duncan feels that the "light film" is even still there. slowly expanding and extending

It is further devouring the remaining parts of the Frost Queen's body!

Seeing Leigh Nora struggling to climb over the window, Zhou Ming instantly woke up from his shock, hurriedly stepped forward to cover the intact half of her body, and carefully brought her in - he felt that her body temperature was very high. Low, like a cold ghost.

"We haven't seen each other for a while." Leigh Nora raised her head and smiled at the friendly "ancient god" in front of her. "After such a thrilling journey, it's still hard to see your palace again." What an incredible sense of peace of mind -

"Don't sigh about this yet," Zhou Ming quickly interrupted, and while helping her to the sofa in the living room, he quickly asked, "What's wrong with your arm?" "

"Don't worry about me, my arm is still there." Le Nora sat down on the sofa, panting a little weakly, and pressed her left shoulder with her remaining right hand one by one on the empty space. "On the air", "I am holding something in my hand. It will make my body disappear, but I dare not let go. As soon as I let go, it will dissipate. I tried it many times and it always happened, so I I had been holding on to it tightly on the road and now it seemed that I had probably held it for too long. "

Holding something in your hand? "Listening to the other party's words, Zhou Ming was slightly stunned, and subconsciously looked at the empty left side of the other party's body, "What do you have in your hand? "

'I'm trying to put it into your hands now,' Le Nora took a deep breath, seeming to have regained some strength. She sat up, as if she was raising her right hand, and put some invisible The thing was handed over, "I don't know what will happen to it after it falls into your hands. Maybe it will dissipate, or it may become something else. I have no choice."

Her mind seemed to have been affected by "something", and her words became unclear, but she still handed the thing over unswervingly. Zhou Ming couldn't see it, so he could only raise his hand and continue to feel it. He touched the cold fingers of the Frost Queen, and then something equally cold with a soft and loose texture fell into his palm.

Leigh Nora was actually handing over something invisible, something real but invisible to the eye.

The next second, Zhou Ming noticed that Lei Nora's disappeared body began to recover quickly - her shoulders, chest and abdomen reappeared, and then her entire arm.

And he could still feel the cold, loose mass in his palm.

"It's still there," Zhou Ming looked down at his palm with surprise in his tone, "What's going on?"

He suddenly stopped and opened his eyes in shock. In his gaze, something "something" was slowly emerging from his empty palm. First it was a nearly transparent shadow, and then a shadow. It began to feel real and turned into a gray substance with blurred edges like pinched dust.

The gray substance lay quietly in the palm of Zhou Ming's hand. Incomprehensible changes seemed to be happening inside it all the time. Its core seemed to be squirming and trembling, with weird outlines always emerging, and its edges seemed to be covered with a layer of There was a layer of fog that caused visual confusion. Just staring at it for a while made people feel dizzy. "What the hell is this?" Zhou Ming finally couldn't help muttering in a low voice, and then suddenly looked up. Turning to the Frost Queen next to her, "Where did you find this thing? Is it the 'Beyond the Border' you mentioned last time?" "

After getting rid of the "invisible thing", Leigh Nora's body and spirit obviously began to recover quickly. At this time, her face became much normal. When she heard Zhou Ming's question, she immediately nodded lightly.

'At the end of this gray mist, beyond that 'boundary' I mentioned last time, these things are everywhere and the whole 'world' over there is even made of them," she recalled. Said, "After talking to you last time, I started to feel and see them, but I still can't figure out what they are, and the most incredible thing is that this thing can be brought back, so I I brought some back and wanted to see what you have in mind. "

Zhou Ming's brows furrowed little by little. After confirming that this thing really came from beyond the end of the world, countless ideas and guesses seemed to pop up all at once. With the emergence of countless ideas, he became even more vague. About to feel—

Something in one's "essence" has become loose.

His "transformation" accelerated again.

The surrounding starlight was buzzing and trembling, and there seemed to be countless incomprehensible hums and whispers echoing in the starlight. Le Nora glanced around cautiously, then suppressed her mind in a familiar way, trying to ignore the things that were echoing in the stars. sound.

This is not the first time she has been to this place, and she won't make a fuss like last time.

Ancient God, when you think about it, this is probably the B movement.

At this moment, Zhou Ming finally exhaled softly. He guessed what the thing that Le Nora brought back was, and now he only had to verify his guess.

He picked up his hand, and a trace of green flame danced on his fingertips. He tried to consciously interfere with the flame, recalling his feelings during his "transformation" - as he watched, the green in the flame was gradually fading away. , the faint starlight appeared in the jumping flames.

He slowly held up his hand and used the starlight to gradually immerse the cold and amorphous gray mass. He made a fist and the gray mass slowly melted into the starlight.

Leigh Nora's eyes widened, looking at this scene in shock and curiosity.

"Do you know what this is?" She couldn't help asking curiously. The star-filled giant turned his head and made a gentle and joyful voice to her, "It's raw material."

"Ingredients?" Leigh Nora listened blankly, obviously not understanding, "What ingredients?"

"The raw materials and basic information units of the new world are just as I guessed before!" Zhou Ming looked into Leigh Nora's eyes. He slowly opened his hand, and the gray mass had completely melted into the starlight. , melted into his body, and he completely understood the nature of this "matter", "Information is immortal, information can only transform. The theory of Pilot 2 is correct, information is the cornerstone of everything, everything is information. The expression, even the Great Annihilation itself, is the same! "

Leigh Nora listened in confusion, but Zhou Ming had already stood up from the sofa. He could not restrain his excitement and joy at this moment and subconsciously walked around the sofa, thinking quickly as he walked. He stopped suddenly from time to time to sort out his complicated thoughts.

"The world is made up of information. The essence of all things operating in the world is the expression of information and the process of mutual connection and transformation." He stopped in front of Le Nora and quickly explained to the Frost Queen, "You can regard the entire world as an extremely large 'mathematical machine' that contains all references and executes consistently, and everything in the world is the data that appears in the operation of this machine. All events that occur in this world , are all the 'solutions' of this mathematical machine"

Leigh Nora struggled to follow Zhou Ming's train of thought. At this moment, she couldn't help but ask: "You mean, our world is illusory?"

"No, it's true - because we ourselves are also part of this mathematical machine, and we ourselves are also the result of countless information accumulations." Zhou Ming waved his hand quickly and continued, "If everything in the world is information, then in the world There is no 'reality' other than information, and this explains the nature of the Great Annihilation. But it takes a long time to explain this part. I believe you can figure it out yourself. The key point I want to say is that information itself is not will disappear, its 'basic unit' will only transition from one state to another

Zhou Ming suddenly stopped, thinking as hard as he could, and then waved his arms extra hard.

"Because the 'mathematical machine' exists from eternity, its execution should include all 'solutions'. The 'arguments' that make up it will neither stop nor disappear. They just transform and transform into something that cannot be addressed." and the read state - to the mathematical machine this is still part of the 'solution', but to us beings who rely on the mathematical machine to understand the world this process is called the end of the world.
