Mythology: Spiritual Ruler - Chapter 582
Chapter 582: Enlistment
In the nameless valley, the great hero stands against the Sphinx.
The second question has been asked, as long as you give a random answer, you will be able to win the game.
However, Hercules could not be so sloppy, he had to find the flaws in the other party’s dialect.
As for the forced explanation…just as the Sphinx said in the question.
Whether it is dividing the past and the future from the perspective of time, or dividing the subject and the object from the perspective of independence, this is just something that seems to be interpreted, but in fact it does not have such a convincing answer.
This may be inevitable, after all, human beings themselves cannot understand what omniscience and omnipotence are. How can you give a reasonable explanation for something that you cannot understand?
There was a moment of silence in the field, only the sound of the wind was still blowing.
At this moment, the great hero is even considering using another way to solve the problem.
Yes, another way to solve the problem, not another perspective… In fact, Hercules is not a reckless man.
He dared not take any precautions to start this question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-and-answer question-
With his own strength alone, whether it is the indestructible lion skin or the highly poisonous fangs, perhaps they cannot stop the realm of the Sphinx Order.
But there is one thing he obtained shortly after the trial started, but there is a way to help him offset the erasure of the rules.
That was the power that Ender gave it…the ruins of that ancient human city of the Bronze Age.
That day, the flood went from east to west, covering the world for seven days and nights. It is like the hand of destruction that swept across the earth and gave the disaster of mortals to destroy.
But on that day, there was a group of people who were erased of “death” and regarded the flood as if nothing had happened.
In this history, Ande reappeared the miracle of the past and turned into a talisman.
He called it [False Immortality], and the great hero had already confirmed it before coming. Since the valley is now a sphinx rather than a ancestor of all demons, even though its rules are powerful, it may not be able to break through this “immortal” protection.
‘Do you want to directly solve this demon by suppressing the rules? But strictly speaking, it has never done anything damn. ’
‘Even today, I came to me myself…’
Silently, Hercules hesitated a little.
Just before him, Sphinx obviously did not realize this.
“What, don’t you answer yet?”
“Give up…humans cannot understand things beyond their cognition, so does God.”
“True omniscience and omnipotence are a false proposition… This is something that wisdom cannot answer even if I do.”
Hehe laughed, Sphinx shook his head slightly.
It does not think that this human being can give a reasonable explanation, and the question and answer are over.
However, in front of it, the great hero’s brows frowned slightly.
He felt as if he had noticed something, but it was not that clear.
“Sphinx…You just told me that omniscience and omnipotence are a false proposition?”
“Isn’t it?”
Asked casually, the Sphinx touched the stones on the ground.
“…Maybe it is, this is indeed a false proposition.”
He nodded slowly, and Hercules raised his head slightly.
Compared with tall demons, humans are still too short.
“But it doesn’t matter whether a false proposition is false or not. Sphinx, I already have the answer.”
“But before that, I want to talk about my doubts about your problem.”
“This is your right,” Sphinx said lightly: “You can start anytime.”
“That’s OK.
“Since that’s the case…the son of Natifeng, please listen to me.”
The heart that used the talisman to press down temporarily, and when the Sphinx was watching, the great hero asked his own question.
“When I heard you tell this story before, I felt something was wrong. But it was not until just now that I understood the root cause of it.”
“Just like your question and answer, under the cover of your order rules, our status is equal; and like the Goddess of Justice measuring the balance of all things, at both ends, the place must be equivalent.”
“If the answerer is blind, then let them distinguish the color. This is an unfair question and answer. Order will not allow it; sand and gold, placed on both ends of the scale, forcing them to balance, is an unjust act.”
“Then the end of the day, the same is true for the unbeliever in your story.”
“Human cognition has its limitations…even the gods are. They call things within their cognition logic and abandon things outside their cognition beyond logic.”
“So it is logical to let someone draw a circle. Both man and **** think that this can be done; it is logical to let someone draw a square. Both man and **** will not question its truth.”
“But if you make someone draw a ‘square circle’, from the stars all over the sky to the bottomless abyss, no one thinks it can succeed, no God thinks it may exist, because it goes beyond their perception and goes against the logic in their eyes.”
“However, does a square circle really not exist? I can’t answer it.”
“But I know that insects with only one morning life will not believe in the night, and creatures with only one spring life will not understand autumn and winter. This is the limitation of life wisdom and something that is inherently difficult to break.”
The voice was calm. In the process of answering the question, the hero felt that the barrier in his heart seemed to be being broken.
The secrets between heaven and earth are endless. What is the “absolute” thing in this world?
If so, it probably means ‘no absolute’.
“The unbeliever understands God with his own logic. The God he understands is God within his logic, not the real God. The questions he raises are problems outside his logic, not problems that are truly unrealized.”
“It is unknown whether God is truly omniscient and omnipotent; it is also unknown whether the true omniscient and omnipotent can create a stone that He cannot lift. But the unbeliever tries to make God in his logic do things outside his logic, which is truly impossible to accomplish, and his problems are unreasonable.”
“If he wants to ask a question, he can only do this: understand God with his own logic, and then ask God whether he can do it with things that he can understand, so as to verify God’s omniscience; or he admits that God is beyond his logic, and only in this way can he verify God’s omnipotence with questions beyond his logic.”
“The internal and external equality, the two are the same, this is a valuable question… As for his previous question, it is meaningless.”
The statement has come to this point, strictly speaking, these explanations have nothing to do with the answer itself.
But Sphinx and Hercules both knew that his words were not originally used to answer questions.
As the Sphinx said before, the outcome of the problem is only outside the problem. When things other than the problem are solved, the problem itself is no longer important.
So facing Sphinx’s gaze, the great hero slowly gave the final answer.
“My answer to your question is ‘yes’.”
“Because since the question itself has no meaning, my answer no longer needs to consider the reasons for right or wrong.”
“And since the reason is no longer important… my answer is only derived from my respect for the gods themselves.”
Buzz…
When the word “yes” is exported, the familiar fluctuations of the rules appear again.
The rules themselves do not care about the questions inside and outside the questions, they only care about answering the questions. At almost the same time, he knew that he could not verify the rules of omniscience and omnipotence, so he judged that Hercules won another game and he won the second victory.
“I won, Lord Sphinx.”
“Let’s start the third game…”
The field swayed slightly, and the turmoil caused by the second consecutive failure made it no longer stable.
But the great hero obviously won’t care about this, he is just waiting for the next question.
Silently, except for Oedipus, the human in front of him was the first person to solve two problems in succession… Just looking at Hercules’ eyes, Sphinx suddenly said:
“The third game is not needed anymore. Young human, I admit defeat.”
“Um?”
The expression changed slightly. After hearing this, the hero’s first reaction was not joy, but vigilance.
There is no need for the third scene… He doesn’t think the big demon in front of him is someone who is willing to die.
Oedipus, who used to commit suicide here after answering two questions, perhaps in the underground of the valley, there was also the blood left by the other party.
“Don’t be nervous, human, I’m serious.”
“In fact, this is also to save my own life.”
Shrugged, Sphinx ignored Hercules’ alertness.
“You have to know, as I said before.”
“If you don’t answer a question correctly, you will definitely die. After all, you have not sacrificed yourself on the scale in front of the valley, then even if I don’t want to kill you, the rules will erase you immediately… But young humans, you should have guessed that the opposite is true.”
“If all my three problems fail, even if you don’t want to kill me, I will definitely die.”
“I don’t want to die, nor do I want to bet against you with eternal life. You can’t answer the third question. So I simply give up and give you everything the winner has.”
“There is nothing wrong with this. Accept my admit defeat and you will win. Everything that has been accumulated in this field over thousands of years belongs to you.”
“Similarly, I can swear to you, swear to the Styx, to all the gods in heaven and earth, I have not lie to you.”
“When you accept my admit defeat, although you cannot take my life, you can take away everything else, and you don’t have to face the risk of failure.”
“This is a very cost-effective deal. After all, you don’t have a reason to kill me, right?”
“After you win, the Goddess of the Law will also win a bet with me, and I will sow justice with her from now on… Heroes of the world, do you accept my proposal?”
Accept it?
It sounds like nothing is unacceptable.
As Sphinx said, Hercules asked himself that he had no grudges with the other party, nor did he have the idea of killing it.
Although the first two questions are very tricky, it is ultimately because I came to my house in person.
In a sense, answering Sphinx’s question is equivalent to robbing a knife and robbing its life.
It is not too much to be vicious when facing a person who comes to take his own life.
“So…receive it?”
There is no need to face such annoying problems anymore, just nod to win.
And the other party’s oath is true, at least the artifact of the Goddess of the Law is hanging above Sphinx’s head. If it breaks its promise, it will definitely not be easy.
However, in the expectant gaze of the Sphinx, the great hero just pondered for a moment and slowly shook his head.
He rejected this proposal and insisted on answering the last difficult question.
“Come on, Sphinx.”
“I’m never afraid of challenges, whether physical or spiritual.”
“Those who can’t beat me will only make me stronger… Come on, tell me, what is your third problem?”
“…”
“I…”
Opening his mouth and looking at Hercules’s firm eyes, Sphinx wanted to say something, but it ended up saying nothing.
Because at this moment, the third buzzing sounded in the great hero’s ears.
Rules determined that Sphinx’s concedes a success, and Hercules also won the third question.
“?”
I was slightly stunned and didn’t react at first.
But in just a flash, the great hero realized the mystery.
The Sphinx is right, it did not deceive him.
As long as it votes and admits defeat, Hercules will naturally win.
Everything in this field will belong to him, but there is one thing it has not mentioned.
The premise of admitting defeat is that the problem has begun and the hero decides to challenge the third question.
Anyone who wins in front of Sphinx can end the challenge at any time and leave with his own victory, and Hercules is no exception.
Sphinx repeatedly confirmed whether he wanted to answer questions for every previous question, but only the last time he didn’t ask.
Because as long as the great hero agrees to its “sacrifice” and gives up this challenge, the third question and answer itself does not exist, and the so-called victory or defeat will naturally have no meaning.
“So are you going to die?”
Hercules asked with some regrets.
The Sphinx did not lie, and its vows were also true, so it should indeed not be able to stop the killing of the rules.
Even at this moment, with the final victory, the great hero has begun to sense the power in this field, and this power is gathering towards the Sphinx.
If it were another great demon, Hercules was not sure whether it would die, but Sphinx was different.
The realm is the vast majority of its power… When this part tries to erase it, it has no ability to resist.
“…Damn it…Who knows this?”
“I’ve told you the truth.”
“Since you are so persistent and want to answer the third question, just treat it as an extra decryption game… As for my power, it’s yours now.”
He spoke lightly, facing the sudden death, Sphinx shrugged again and then leaned back to the ground.
On its body, golden light radiated out.
