The sin of wearing a crown

Avalon, this pronunciation means a refuge in the elven civilization, and this pronunciation was passed down to human civilization and evolved into a place of trial. Lin En has never seen Avalon properly. He has never seen this wonder built on a righteous god and caught between the cracks.

Although it looks very small from the outside, like a thin thread.

But the space inside is actually very large.

At least Lin En stood on this huge tree of unknown height. He could not see the edge of the space at a glance, and could only vaguely glimpse the so-called chaotic changing colors. After Avalon's decline, it suffered from the erosion of various phenomena from the star world, a scene of a doomsday wasteland.

The land is full of broken ravines.

When the elf demigod led Linn to walk on the edge of a prominence torrent projected from the broken sky, Linn finally understood how this riddled land became like this.

"Due to lack of maintenance, Avalon has become what it is today. It used to be a grassland, and there were still some centaur and tiger clans living here, but I don't know when they all disappeared." The elf demigod explained lightly. , it is not difficult to know from her mouth that this shelter once had a very beautiful time, like the Garden of Eden.

But as the remaining elves stationed here lost their activity one by one, everything changed.

"Didn't they ask you for help?" Linn asked curiously.

"I asked for help, but at that time, it was judged through procedures that everything to save Avalon was in vain and was an act of prolonging the pain. Avalon must maintain its existence as long as possible and fulfill its original responsibilities. "

The elf demigod's words suddenly revealed a mechanical coldness.

The longer you live, the less active you become.

Intelligent life that can be born from civilization will involuntarily enter the ultimate three questions after enough time. These three questions will determine whether a life can remain consistent after experiencing everything it can experience, and will not go to the end. Silence.

Who am I, where do I come from and where am I going.

"You can't bear it and think what we did is wrong." The elf demigod tilted her head slightly, and she could easily detect Linn's unobvious emotions.

"No, I have no intention of judging right or wrong. I also know that compared with promising civilizations, the ecosystem in this refuge..."

Lin En couldn't bear it until the end. He didn't know from what angle he should say this. The program is right, and it’s right to want to live. What’s wrong is that you can’t be sober and rational. Individuals can maintain their own sensibility, and that vivid sensibility is one of the foundations that prevents a civilized collective from going into extreme morbidity. But the civilized collective cannot be emotional. That would be too extravagant.

On this point, the elven demigods strongly agreed with No. 1's original decision to sail away.

"However, haven't any of the elves you left considered creating another elven civilization? With your technology, or simply the operational power of demigods, there should be no obstacles, right?" Lin En suddenly discovered something he had overlooked. , if some humans take refuge in shelters, then reproductive behavior is definitely indispensable.

There has been no news about the elven civilization since its voyage to the star world. Linn thought that it must have been abandoned. He did not believe that the elven demigods had not thought of creating another elven civilization.

"Elves are born from the mother tree, but they have the same emotions as you humans and can carry out sexual reproduction activities. Of course they are not as wild as you. Our union will be carried out under the will of the mother tree, and the whole process will not produce the out-of-control behavior of humans. desire.”

"Creating life is not that difficult. As early as when our civilization just started, we have been able to create all kinds of strange plant life, and they can all change according to our wishes. And the creation of animals, for example, when we stay in Certain creations under the ground in this world have relevant knowledge.”

"For us, the question is not how to create, but how to cultivate. There is a theory among us that the possibilities of an individual are not unlimited. He will consume more or less of his own energy in any matter. Possibilities, until all your possibilities are exhausted and you enter cold collapse or heat death.”

"The responsibility of civilization forces us not to create life in a refuge like Avalon. The life created must be guided and grow up in a normal environment. It is very regrettable that we do not have such a luxurious environment here, nor do we have sufficient Possibilities can be explored by a new life.”

The elf demigod said a long passage, and from this passage Linn understood what a responsible and somewhat inactive existence was.

He didn't ask again why he didn't cultivate such nonsense in the outside world.

It can be seen that the elves have an almost sacred concept of civilization. In order to leave more space for the development of their brother civilizations in the cradle, they will not hesitate to take away everything they can, and will definitely cause negative interference to other civilizations. So full of expectations that the two civilizations can move forward hand in hand in the star realm in the future.

So it goes without saying that the elves and demigods who are willing to stay in Avalon are enlightened.

"...I deeply admire your awareness."

Looking at this dead land, the halo of solar prominences stirred up his own shadow, and Linn suddenly felt that he was lightly bumped by a silent greatness.

This greatness has long since passed away, and now only a corner of the wreckage remains for Linn to admire.

The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it’s almost dusk.

At this moment, Lin En suddenly became angry and felt a sigh of relief. He wanted to say that these long-eared people were stupid and that the continuity of civilization should be the first priority. However, only pursuing continuity without pursuing the bottom line of principles would only make civilization weak and sick.

After the trip to Avalon, if there are any regrets for Lynn.

He was probably sighing that he came to this world too late. If he had come earlier, he might have been able to see the radiance of the star realm lighting up the sky for five days and nights.

"Do you have any more questions?"

Faced with Lin En's admiration, the elf demigod didn't seem to have any reaction, and just asked the next question as if executing the program.

"I have another question. Elves also have intelligence and emotions. So has love ever appeared among elves?"

"…………"

This time the elf demigod was silent for a long time. Her silence reminded Lin En of the last time he was almost blown away, and he couldn't help but float a little farther away.

The elf demigod thought long enough for Linn to wonder if she had made a mistake like a robot before she slowly spoke.

"Now it's time for your test, Lynn Moriarty."
