I'm trapped in a cube

Mo Ling looked at the weird doctor in front of him with vigilance. The teleportation frame had been quietly aimed at him. As long as the doctor took action, Mo Ling would immediately start the teleportation.

However, the strange doctor didn't seem to have any hostility. He just stood there and looked at his body.

"Healing power is really a powerful ability..."

"This is the ability with the most question marks that we have encountered. Even the doctors themselves don't know some of the relevant knowledge. They don't seem to know the nature of this ability, nor the origin and evolution of this ability. They just instinctively Use this ability and use this power simply as a 'healing' tool."

The doctor said to himself while feeling the medicine on his body.

"Who are you? What is your relationship with the Eternal Thirst?" Mo Ling couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked the doctor.

"I?"

The light on the doctor's head flashed, he stretched out his tentacles, swept over them, and arranged the books neatly on the table beside him.

"I'm the librarian here."

"If you want to ask more carefully, then I can only answer you, I am also an eternal thirster..."

Hearing this answer, Mo Ling became even more nervous. If this weird doctor was the Eternal Thirst, then who was the straw creature just now?

Seeing that Mo Ling didn't seem to fully understand, the "librarian" continued to explain:

"It turns out there aren't so many books here..."

"At the beginning, there were only a few books here, and he often came here to sort them out. But later, he acquired knowledge faster and faster, and there was no time to sort it out, so these books were thrown everywhere. All."

"When books become messy, knowledge will also become messy..."

"Different races and different types of knowledge are completely mixed together. There is no system or classification. There are even many errors and repeated knowledge filled in his mind, so that his thoughts will become more and more chaotic."

As the doctor spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the bookshelf above.

"The Eternal Thirst is a race with group consciousness. Knowledge and thoughts can be connected with each other, so the chaos of thoughts will affect an entire group."

"Under the influence of this chaotic thinking, he, or 'they', sometimes even get lost in the vast knowledge and think that they are other races."

"So, he needs a librarian, an independent person who is not connected to the group consciousness, who can use clear thinking to help him organize this huge amount of knowledge."

"And this is how I was born. I am also a member of the Eternal Thirst, but I do not belong to the Eternal Thirst. I am not responsible for acquiring knowledge. I am only responsible for sorting out knowledge and managing this library."

"However, while I am sorting out books, I will also be affected by them. That knowledge often turns me into other races... just like what you see now."

The doctor opened his arms and fully displayed his body in front of Mo Ling.

Only then did Mo Ling discover that this doctor not only had the characteristics of the healer and the Eternal Thirst, but also had the characteristics of some other creatures, but these characteristics were not obvious.

"Then why did he ask you to heal him?"

"Because of guilt." The doctor replied calmly.

"Guilty?" Mo Ling was a little confused.

"Yes, you should be able to understand that if you want to obtain the knowledge of a race, you must absorb the history, culture, thoughts, and beliefs of that race...and these things will allow the Eternal Thirst to be 'assimilated'. Once assimilated, There will be empathy.”

"He will naturally regret the demise of this race and feel guilty about his actions. This is inevitable, so he will never kill them all. When facing the avengers of those races, he will hide and hide whenever he can. "

"In the process of conquest and destruction, although he has been acquiring knowledge, his sense of guilt is also constantly piling up. He has collected so much knowledge. Of course he knows how abominable it is to destroy a race. He also understands the Eternal Thirst. Why did it become so infamous?”

"But the thirst for knowledge of the Eternal Thirst is insatiable. This desire can even surpass all pity and all empathy. When the desire comes, he will not hesitate to destroy a race, but after the destruction, he I will hide in the library and repent, and repent of how much harm my actions have caused to those races.”

"He even tried to lock himself up and use a powerful seal to trap himself, but when his desire broke out, no obstacles could stop him from gaining knowledge."

"That's why he was so excited after discovering the race of healers. He wanted to obtain healing power and all knowledge about healing power. This was also the first time he had acquired knowledge in order to 'apply' a piece of knowledge. "

"But as you can see now, the cure was successful, but the basis for the existence of the Eternal Thirst is gone. When the desire disappears and the Eternal Thirst no longer desires, there will be no meaning of existence."

"However, he has already expected this. He can finally serve as an 'Avenger' to help those races that have been destroyed and kill their enemies with his own hands..."

Having said this, the doctor looked at the empty seats.

"In the process of acquiring knowledge, he also collected a lot of stories about other races. In those stories, there are often plots where the villains suddenly realize their mistakes and end their lives. He likes these kinds of stories very much. Sometimes when he comes to the library, he will sit at the table and read these old-fashioned stories over and over again."

"He may have thought of his own ending a long time ago..."

"Sometimes, after reading these stories, he will ask me some questions."

"Is it all over once the villain dies? What about those destroyed races? Do they have no choice but to forgive? Or do they choose to keep hating? Hate the villain who no longer exists..."

"How can the villain make up for everything he has done? How can he make up for it so that everyone is satisfied? If he can really satisfy everyone, can everything he has done be forgiven?"

"He has no answers to these questions, and neither do I..."

"But now, he still leaves the questions to me."

The doctor looked at the empty seat and said helplessly.

He stretched out his hand and looked at his fingers.

"My time is almost up."

As soon as the voice fell, the fingertips suddenly shattered and turned into countless smoke and dust.

"Will you die too?" Mo Ling asked in confusion.

"Of course, I am also an eternal thirster, so of course I will die."

The doctor didn't seem to care about his own death. He walked in front of Mo Ling while emitting smoke and dust.

"You smell like a human."

"Well, then leave it to them... After all, humans are just like us... like to read books."
