Chapter 345
【"They even advised me not to sell all my family property and focus on Penacony... pfft, really short-sighted!"】
【Robin was a bit puzzled: "【Sell all family property】... why go that far?"】
【The drunk guest said: "Why? What else... life in the hometown is too bitter, I didn't even look like a person."】
【"Penacony is still better, only sweet dreams, no bitterness, no need to worry about tomorrow, do whatever you want, this is called living... *hiccup*, comfortable!"】
【Robin looked at this drunk Pepeshi guest, her eyes showing sadness: "This... can this really be called living..."】
The place where the Astral Express crew is located.
March 7th patted the table excitedly: "Of course not, this life looks relaxed and happy, carefree, isn't it just a walking corpse?"】
"Is that Pepeshi person really happy?"
"If he were really happy, why would he miss the moon of his hometown?"
"No matter how good a sweet dream is, it's not home after all."
Welt Yang sighed: "Although I don't advocate this behavior, I can understand their thoughts to some extent. Compared to the bitter days of the past, this life might be good enough, even if it is full of falsehood."
"It's just that living in the world, how can one get rid of reality? When there is no other choice, we can only move forward."
Following Dan Heng, seeing Welt Yang's expression seemed a bit wrong, said worriedly: "Mr. Welt, are you okay?"
Welt Yang smiled and said: "Ha, I'm fine, just remembered some things about my hometown."
Stelle looked at the drunk Pepeshi guest and said helplessly: "There should be quite a few people like this in Penacony."
Following Dan Heng also said heavily: "Indulging in the dreamscape and not facing the cruel reality is indeed the choice of many people. This is also what Mr. Gallagher said, '【Humanity's weaknesses, indulged and nurtured by the Family, amplified and nurtured by the Family, turned Penacony into another kind of prison, and it is far more indestructible than the one in the past.】'"】
March 7th said lost: "In other words, the will of these people addicted to sweet dreams may also become an obstacle for us?"
【After settling the drunk Pepeshi guest, Sunday looked at Robin who was a bit lonely and asked with concern: "What's wrong, sister?"】
【Robin lowered her gaze and said softly: "Clearly in the land of dreams, why do people live this kind of life?"】
【"That gentleman just now... is not happy at all."】
【"No matter how sweet the dream is, it is an invisible and untouchable illusion, but it is regarded by him as the only choice for survival, and he even gave up his future in reality for it... this can't be called 【living】 at all."】
【Sunday heard this and said softly: "Mm, is that so... but in my opinion, this is the way ordinary people should live."】
【Robin was a bit surprised and said: "... Why do you say that?"】
【Sunday said: "You just said that it is not 【living】 for that gentleman to live by sweet dreams, but it is not so. Even without Penacony, people will live in their own illusions, and this illusion is called 【self-worth】."】
【"People always think that they are destined to realize some kind of value. Earning value for themselves means powerful strength, and those without value become the weak."】
【"However, value is not created out of thin air by people, and its sum also has an upper limit. To realize the so-called value, people must plunder from others. In this way, the weak are exploited and oppressed..."】
【Robin understood Sunday's meaning and said: "You mean... things shouldn't be like this, right?"】
【Sunday nodded: "Exactly. However, ironically, people don't think doing so is wrong. Because they always hold that ethereal 【self-worth】 as the standard, and even the weak think so."】
【"Survival of the fittest, the weak are the prey of the strong... all tragedies in the world stem from this. And that is why it is a sweet dream, precisely because it provides a place of rest for anyone who wants to get out of it..."】
【"There is no tragedy here, only happiness—although it is only in its infancy, isn't this the appearance of the paradise in our minds?"】
【Robin listened to Sunday's words and didn't directly refute, but said: "Maybe that gentleman just now was just an exception. Before drawing a conclusion, I think it's better to see it with my own eyes in the dreamscape, just like in the Dreamflux Reef."】
The livestream room.
"I feel that Robin and Sunday do have a very obvious divergence on this matter."
"Or rather, it can be seen from the choice about the bird when the two were young."
"But I feel my head is a mess. I think what Mr. Sunday said makes sense, but I always feel something is wrong and I don't want to accept it."
"And that Pepeshi person who was addicted to sweet dreams before, as Robin said, is he really happy?"
"Naturally happy when drunk, but what about when he wakes up? Even in his drunk state, he is missing the bright moon of his hometown, right?"
"But what Mr. Sunday said doesn't seem wrong either. There are too many weak people in the world. They can't live their lives well even if they try their best in reality, and instead become the objects of oppression by the powerful. For such people, isn't a sweet dream that can escape reality a fairyland?"
"But the dreamscape is fake after all. Although it's okay to rest and play in it occasionally, treating it as reality and everything is putting the cart before the horse. Falsehood is fake after all."
"I feel that the different ideas of Sunday and Robin are already a philosophical speculation."
"Sigh~ although the dreamscape is fake, for those who have experienced cruel reality, perhaps the dreamscape is their only destination."
"Refusing to face reality, but after the fake dreamscape is broken, won't it be even more painful?" ===== CHAPTER 346 =====
