I'm trapped in a cube

The captain never thought that one day he would understand the inner thoughts of things he had never thought of understanding.

Trees, soil, rivers...

It turns out that different trees have different ideas. Some want to grow very tall and bathe in the sun, some want to dig their roots deep to see what is underground, some want to grow the greenest leaves, and some even want to extend out of the sky island and grow to other sky islands.

Some soil wants to stay underground, some want to defeat other soil and make themselves harder...

Rivers are more complicated. Different water flows often have different ideas. Most of them are very simple, but full of wonderful ideas.

Not only that, there are even more wonderful things, light, darkness, corruption... These conceptual things actually have their own ideas.

However, when the captain asked seriously: "Can I keep my self?"

All the consciousnesses agreed to his request without any refusal.

They will admire the beauty of human experience and let the captain persist. They understand each other and empathize with each other. They understand the captain's obsession and the reason why the captain insists on himself.

But the captain felt endless sorrow while integrating these consciousnesses.

While losing himself and integrating consciousnesses, these consciousnesses also gave up their obsessions.

Consciousness is born from the body, so how can it be separated from the body?

The captain wandered in those memories that did not belong to him, feeling those thoughts that did not belong to humans, and the turmoil of his thoughts became calmer and calmer. After connecting more and more consciousnesses, he found that he really became dull.

Although those light spots gave up themselves and let the captain occupy the main position, those memories and thoughts still often made him feel trance, and he would occasionally suddenly forget his identity.

But every time at this time, the expectations of those light spots would surge into his heart.

"After you rescue your teammates, remember to go outside the sky island to take a look."

"Can you help me see what is under the sky island?"

"The water keeps flowing, where will it flow to in the end? Can you help me see?"

"..."

These expectations are reminding him that he has more important things to do.

After integrating countless consciousnesses, the captain finally found his teammates.

Most of them were already in confusion at this time, forgetting who they were in countless fusions.

They just instinctively felt that the captain was very close.

After finding these light spots belonging to his teammates, the captain decided to take the next step and return to the body.

He left the sea of ​​consciousness with these light spots of his teammates.

The Eye of the Stars did not stop them, just as the stone said: "After completing the fusion, any light spot is free and can choose its own body..."

However, after returning from the sea of ​​consciousness, the captain did not choose to return to his original body, although those bodies were still intact.

The captain looked at the luggage containing the relics.

He had a better idea, an idea that could completely defeat the Eye of the Stars...

He rushed into the relics with countless light spots.

"You go inside the flip cover... You go inside the magic curtain..."

The captain directed the ignorant light spots belonging to the team members to get into some of the relics.

Then he looked at a projector.

This was the only relic he could think of that could resist the Eye of the Stars.

So, he rushed into the projector with countless points of light belonging to him.

Because of the impact of the torrent of consciousness, the projector even changed.

As if to adapt to this terrifying consciousness, the projector became larger and larger, and directly broke the luggage bag.

But the changes did not stop. The projector directly broke through the starlight and flew into the sky. Driven by the sense of closeness, the relics occupied by the consciousness of the team members also flew into the sky with him.

After getting familiar with the ability of the relics, the deep lens of the projector was aimed at the starlight covering the forest.

"Eye of the Stars! It's time for revenge!"

The captain's anger reached its peak.

He was not only angry because of the experience of the investigation team, but also because of the consciousness that merged with him-those consciousnesses that were created for no reason and harvested into the starry sky.

Are living things happier than dead things?

The captain did not think so. After merging so many consciousnesses, he only felt endless sorrow.

There is no difference between having consciousness and not having consciousness. Blindly believing that everything should feel the same is selfish.

Things are separated. Wolves should not understand sheep, and sheep should not understand wolves. This is the essence of the operation of this world.

The interval between stars is not an obstacle to prevent them from communicating, but a kind of protection.

The empty void isolates "living beings" into "self".

Under the embellishment of the dark void, the shining of countless stars has meaning...

At the same time, the Eye of Stars also realized that something was wrong and wanted to release starlight again to deprive the consciousness of this group of escaping relics, but the captain immediately released brown film to isolate the dazzling starlight.

"It's useless, Eye of Stars, just surrender!"

This projector relic has a strong restraining effect on the ability of the Eye of Stars, which is why the captain chose to enter this projector relic.

As a human, controlling relics requires a price, but as long as he becomes a relic, he can use his abilities freely, so he abandoned his human body and took his team directly into the relics.

He wanted to do his best to fight the Eye of Stars.

Finding that he could not influence the relics in the sky, the disappointed and helpless voice of the Eye of Stars came from the starlight:

"Humans... are so stubborn. You have clearly felt the beauty of the fusion of consciousness, but you still want to destroy everything. Isn't it good to empathize with them? You understand their thoughts and their wishes. The reason why consciousness is beautiful is because of the aura that bursts out from the stars."

"You have completely connected the starlight together and turned it into a beautiful galaxy. Now you have to return to the hypocritical body and be bound by the heavy reality. How backward and selfish is this?"

The Eye of Stars kept outputting its views and was very disappointed with the captain's "betrayal".

The captain did not answer. He knew that no matter how he spoke, he could not change the Star Eye's mind. The Star Eye had completely gone crazy.

He directly launched an attack, letting the brown filter penetrate into the starlight and began to look for the location of the Star Eye.

As long as he found the Star Eye, he could fix it with film and completely block its control over the starry sky.

The Star Eye also realized that something was wrong. It found that all its abilities were invalid. The power of the projector seemed to have a complete restraint on it, and its starlight had no effect.

So, it quickly hid and dived into the depths of the ocean of consciousness.
