Chapter 1675
Wesley gazed down at Sophie and Colby standing in the audience and declared, "If beyond this universe, there exists a Creator who fashioned the universe and mankind, then why can't we humans become creators ourselves?" Hearing Wesley's words, Sophie felt a wave of revulsion, "So what? You've done all these terrible things, shattered so many families, just to realize your ambition?"
"It's not me, but the Tredgold family."
Wesley continued calmly, "Among the four great families, a miracle was discovered. In truth, it was the discovery of the ultimate reality of this world that beyond it, there's a Creator of the universe and everything within it. They could have used this miracle to create a better world, but they chose not to. My ancestors, however, had long been acquainted with the cruelty of this world and resolved to create a realm of only beauty. Generation after generation, through persistent research, we finally made a breakthrough." Turning to Sophie, Wesley added, "You should know this feeling well."
"Me?"
"You've experienced that miraculous power, along with Joseph. All of you have used the gem's power to transcend life and death."
As Wesley spoke, Harold and Adler cast puzzled glances at Sophie. Transcend life and death?
Sophie didn't elaborate, coldly responding, "All this, is your doing? The reason the Burke family possesses a gem that belongs to the Tredgold family is that the four great families had colluded with Burke International a century ago, right?" "Yes."
Wesley affirmed, "Burke International has always been a faithful supporter of the Tredgold family. It's just that with Joseph's generation, a romantic emerged."
"What exactly is the miracle?"
Harold interjected with his question.
"The miracle is akin to this world's glitch."
Wesley's gaze shifted to Adler, explaining, "My son, you're
well-versed in computers, so you should understand that there's no such thing as perfect programming in this world. Even the Creator, in crafting this world, left loopholes The prime gem is this world's loophole, constantly mending the world, gradually perfecting it. History is filled with bizarre
incidents-planes entering a standstill in time through black holes, spacecraft and their crews journeying a hundred years into the future because they encountered this world's glitch."
"Since the dawn of time, the sudden rise of human civilization, to the earliest historical discontinuities, every aspect of the human saga is incredible, because humans are merely the Creator's experiments: Historically, there are numerous records about stones. Pandora used colorful stones to heal the sky, and the prime gem is the key to filling the world's loopholes. The gems held by the four great families were cut from this prime gem."
Wesley concluded, "Now you should understand what the prime gem means to this world-it can easily alter our reality. We will create a
world devoid of emotions, where netBelonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
everyone lives in harmony, knowing only how to forge higher civilizations instead of drowning in the whirlpool of love and desire, tormented."
"A world without emotions? What nonsense are you talking about?"
A foreboding feeling stirred faintly in Sophie's heart.
