What is life, or where does life come from?

Of course, Chen Nuo couldn't answer this question. Even if, according to what Gray Cat said, life is the scale of time defined by the four-dimensional space...

So, I’m afraid no one in this world can answer the question of “life” based on this definition.

Chen Nuo also understood very well that when Gray Cat asked this question to him, he did not expect himself to provide an answer.

Even the gray cat himself doesn't know the answer.

If it knew...then the parent civilization would have found the direction of evolution long ago.

"Having found this answer, will it solve your current predicament?" Chen Nuo frowned.

"...Maybe." Gray Cat stretched helplessly: "As I said, everything is just our guess. None of us have succeeded, so we don't know what the answer is...

Maybe, finding the answer will help.

Maybe... we are just a group of stupid monkeys looking at the moon in the water and reaching out to grab it."

When the gray cat finished speaking these words, his tone was a little lonely.

Chen Nuo understands...that's the end of tonight's conversation.

This cat will never tell itself anything again.

But Chen Nuo still won't let this guy go so easily.

"Who is the last competitor, the fourth seed?"

After hearing this, the gray cat said in a nonchalant tone: "If you are worried about the safety of Lu Xixi... then you don't have to worry that it will come and hurt your wife.

Before they find the answer, they will only choose to observe.

In fact, it will also act as a delicate protector for the deer.

Just like West Germany will protect you from other seeds.

Especially it, it won't cause trouble."

Chen Nuo frowned: "But Lu said carefully that she had a bad feeling. She always felt that once she woke up completely, something terrible would happen."

The gray cat glanced at Chen Nuo, as if nothing had happened, and said casually: "A woman...

If you are sensitive, suspicious, and like to have random thoughts, how can you still be called a woman if you are not like this?

Maybe it’s postpartum depression. You might as well find a psychiatrist or see an obstetrics and gynecology department for postpartum care, such as stabilizing hormones and so on..."

Well, Chen Nuo knows that these last few sentences are just nonsense by Gray Cat.

However, Chen Nuo was also sure of one thing: when the gray cat said, "Don't worry it will hurt the deer Xixi," he meant it in a serious tone.

But the gray cat told himself that it was okay with such a sure tone...

Then, Chen Nuo was also very strange. The sixth sense in his heart told him that he could trust the gray cat's judgment.

"Is West Germany the strongest among you now?" Chen Nuo asked another question that was of greater concern to him.

This time, the gray cat actually shook his head: "To be precise, if we compare the combat power of each other, we don't have absolute strength or weakness."

Understand, that is to say, there is indeed some kind of mutual restraint between seeds?

"Sid's control over space is already the strongest I have ever encountered. That guy with the octopus monster is far worse."

"Space is just a part of our search for direction... Haven't you humans always guessed that the so-called four-dimensional space is the superposition of countless three-dimensional spaces with time as the axis? Therefore, West Germany's control of space is its pursuit of evolution.

a direction."

"Octopus monster too?"

"Maybe. No one knows what direction the other party is going until the last cards are revealed."

Chen Nuo frowned and suddenly asked: "What about you? What is your direction?"

The gray cat suddenly became a little impatient and waved his paw: "My direction is to go down as a dog, I give up!"

Do you understand?

Everyone was racing together, and halfway through, I suddenly stopped, then lay on the ground and stopped running."

"Then let me ask you a question that I have always wanted to know, but you have never answered directly." Chen Nuo looked at the gray cat.

The gray cat suddenly became anxious. It jumped up from the ground and walked back and forth several times: "You have too many questions... If I answer too many questions, I will die... I..."

"Okay! We actually know very well that what you are afraid of is not death or being implicated by me!

Gray cat!

If you are really that timid and so afraid of the other three seeds, you shouldn't stay with me!

You see I am West Germany's chosen one.

You also know that Lu Xixi is the fourth seed selected!

If you are really that scared or want to hide, you shouldn't stay here, you should run away early, hide far away, and stay away from us!"

Chen Nuo exposed this point unceremoniously.

The gray cat stopped talking.

After a long time, it sighed feebly: "Okay... the last question! It's really the last one!"

"Why did you give up?

Is it really because you are timid and fearful and feel that you are no match for other competitors? Are you afraid of death?

Or... do you think the hope for this matter is too slim, as you just said, it is ten thousand times, one hundred thousand times... billions of times smaller than 'slim'?

Or, is there any other reason?"

The gray cat held its head with its paws and twisted its body back and forth, as if it was struggling internally.

Finally, it sighed and answered.

"It's everything you said...

But besides what you said, there is another reason."

"What reason?"

"...I can't win, this is not my war." The gray cat sighed.

Chen Nuo was stunned. He didn't know how to understand this sentence.

The gray cat whispered: "Don't ask me why, and don't ask me what I mean.

I don't know either.

But... I just seem to have a really real feeling in my heart..."

Having said this, Gray Cat looked into Chen Nuo's eyes and repeated it very clearly:

"I feel and realize: This is not my war, I can't win!"

That night, Chen Nuo slept on the sofa and had no sleep all night.

For people with super abilities, strong mental power serves as the foundation, and a night without sleep will not have any impact on the body or state.

But at dawn, Chen Nuo still felt a little lethargic.

That night, he was always thinking.

So, according to the guesses of the seeds...

Life is the scale of time, as the fourth axis??

Time defined by life...

Then one axis is superimposed in series to form countless three-dimensional spaces...

Life is the mark...

There are so many lives in this world? It can almost be described as "infinite".

You know, life does not only include humans, or mammals, or egg-laying things...

Not even just animals!

Even... viruses!

A snail living in a tropical rain forest may only perceive the world within its own range of more than ten meters in that tropical rain forest.

The only world a jaguar can perceive in its lifetime is a few kilometers around it.

For a snail, its "three-dimensional world" may only be more than ten meters.

For a jaguar, its "three-dimensional world" may only be a few kilometers away.
