Chapter 936

"Yes, thank you very much."

"But I hope you still don't lie about your feelings. That's a bit of a loss of face for both of us."

O5-3 fell silent. His slightly turbid brown eyes turned to the side, not daring to look directly at the Administrator, rejecting him. If this continued, it would be like facing his own father.

Because he had been O5 for thirty years and was also a high-level official of the Foundation before, no one had dared to tear his coat apart, pull off his face, grab his inner self that he dared not expose, and throw it under the spotlight for a long time.

He took a deep breath:

"You say that as if you know my personal feelings."

"Yes, that's right."

"You are not an empath. Confirmed decades ago."

"No, I am not," the Administrator leaned forward, like a lion king waking up and taking a step, stretching his waist, "your predecessors did a good job."

Then, the Administrator crossed his legs and shook his head repeatedly:

"People like to think that everyone has uniqueness."

"But in fact, the types of people are limited, just a little over a hundred; they are just repeating and repeating, with slight differences between each other."

........ 0

"A little bit of temperament, a slight preference for flowers, some fear of wasps."

"All are windows decorated with the same few types."

O5-3's heart hung up: "This —"

The Administrator ignored the old man opposite. In terms of seniority and seniority, no one in the Foundation could compare with him.

The day he became immortal and started walking on this land, humans could not yet be called a civilization — no, among the humans at that time, some could not even be called humans.

In a recent sci-fi work, there was one who was a little similar to him, but only a little.

He is called —

"The Emperor."

"And as long as you mix as long as I do, you will find them quite easy to identify."

"So, say it again, please don't lie to me."

"I've heard it all before."

No one can face living human history.

O5-3 can't either, his eyebrows loosened powerlessly, and the momentum of the "anomaly" world emperor moved away:

"I think you have the wrong idea about me."

"I do... I do have doubts, but as I said, I hold the utmost respect for you."

"However, if, as you said, we can only stop 'SCP-001' through observation, and He Himself cannot be observed, then we invest so much energy and financial resources... what is the point?"

The Administrator turned his head, raised his hand to take a book from the armrest of the sofa, the cover was exquisite, with large gilded characters.

"Have you read *Moby-Dick*?"

In the novel.

Captain Ahab of the *Pequod* had a leg bitten off by the fierce and clever white whale Moby Dick during a whaling operation.

This painful experience filled Captain Ahab with the flame of revenge, and he was determined to hunt down this white whale.

Therefore, he was full of revenge, determined to hunt down this white whale.

The crew were infected by his fanaticism and tenacity and threw themselves into this revenge.

However, as the revenge action progressed, Captain Ahab's obsession with the white whale gradually distorted into a pathological paranoia, and revenge on the white whale became the only focus of his life.

Driving the *Pequod*, which carried his will for revenge, Ahab experienced the twists and turns and hardships of various seas in the world and finally discovered the traces of Moby Dick.

At the end of the story, Captain Ahab stabbed the white whale, but the injured Moby Dick counterattacked violently, crashing the *Pequod*, and the sailors were almost wiped out.

Captain Ahab was entangled by the taut rope and fell into the sea, heading toward his end.

The mainstream view of this novel in society is:

Captain Ahab's death symbolizes that the struggle between man and nature was doomed to fail from the beginning.

Some also believe that it represents the self-destruction of persistence and arrogance in human nature.

"Read it," O5-3 said in a low voice.

"A new book written by a Mr. Melville. I really feel deeply about it." The Administrator put the book on his lap, flipped to the last page, and looked at it casually.

"There is a character in it, Ahab, who had a grudge against a whale. He didn't end well."

O5-3 thought about it:

"In my impression, this book is about Ahab's revenge on nature being doomed to fail from the beginning."

"Really? My impression is not like this."

"Okay, then how do you see it?"

"It's that Ahab didn't work hard enough," the Administrator laughed. ===== CHAPTER 938 =====
