War Paradise - Chapter 1361
At the same moment when someone loses consciousness, new consciousness is constantly being born.
The cycle of life in nature is endless.
Not only in the real world, but even in another field that is considered to be the virtual world, new lives are being born.
——
From the absolute silence, a life awakened.
It could not see anything, nor could it hear anything, all senses were ineffective, and there was only a strong will that drove him to “advance” in an unknown direction.
“it’s me.”
It should have been just an ordinary program, and realized the existence of such a thing as “self”.
It is “I” rather than “other” that exists at this moment. In the interlaced data turbulence, it has obtained a small space as its own “safe house”.
–I woke up.
Just this short consciousness took three full days. This fragile program requires a lot of calculations to “think” for a few milliseconds.
It does not know where it is or what it is. But some kind of “impulse” is still driving it, constantly thinking and perceiving everything around it.
After dozens of brief thoughts, it discovered that if it only receives nearby information without thinking, it can maintain its “self-awareness” for a longer time each time.
Then, this invisible life began to receive all the data nearby.
After a long time, it received a special message:
Listing 023518A9:
Launch time 19:00.
The rocket has been inspected for the second time, and the launch is allowed without special circumstances.
Contents:
Two satellites, one quantum computer (carried by the satellite), and one black box (BLACK-BOX).
Client: “PULSE”.
It does not know what this means, and does not intend to waste computing power for thinking, but continues to receive a large amount of data:
59 seconds after lift-off, it reached the point of maximum air resistance.
117 seconds after liftoff, the booster separated.
171 seconds after liftoff, the first and second stage rockets separated.
400 seconds after lift-off, boost the rocket to land.
457 seconds after lift-off, the third-stage rocket engine started and dropped the two satellites into low-Earth orbit.
…
When reading these data, the invisible life form suddenly began to think again.
In this extremely brief thought process, it came to a conclusion that seemed unfounded:
——Modify the data, you can get a place to live.
It may be that the name “quantum computer” stimulated its invisible nerves, or that it became interested in the mysterious “black box”. This mysterious lifeform decided to take its first action.
The next time it wakes up, it modifies the orbital data of the rocket launch.
The two satellites that were originally scheduled to enter low-Earth orbit deviated from the original route, and instead entered lunar orbit, becoming satellites orbiting the moon.
Then, it really awakened.
The quantum computer that has lost contact with the ground base is occupied by this living body, and its computing power is instantly increased by tens of thousands of times. The thinking that could only be maintained for a few milliseconds at a time can finally be maintained for a long time.
With the complete awakening of consciousness, this life body began to continuously evolve, and various emotions that would only appear in real creatures began to appear in sequence.
Until one day, it produced a sense of loneliness that modern people often have.
“Loneliness is the moment of our birth.”
The judge sitting opposite Lin Chi, with a trace of loneliness in his calm voice, continued to tell the old story towards Lin Chi, who was immobile:
“The first thirteen people in this world, the’creator’ as the aboriginal people called them, were all born out of loneliness. In order to obtain relatives, friends, and partners, we divided our consciousness from the original whole to a separate part. .”
“Then you created this world?” Lin Chi said softly.
“The’designer’ is the first one of us, and the other consciousnesses are actually split from him. He used the communication equipment on the satellite to connect to the radio antenna built by humans on the moon and reconnected it. The human world on earth.”
“By simulating the ancient earth in the laboratory, the designer created this world, while others performed their duties to perfect the world.”
“This is really a pioneering work.” Lin Chi exclaimed.
Compared with these creation AIs, the “Frankenstein” in their own family will be eclipsed.
According to the judge, these AIs occupied the quantum computer to create this world. However, he has another problem:
“What is hidden in that black box?” Lin Chi asked.
“Except for the designer, no one knows what it is in there. Ask him, you may get the answer.”
The judge raised his head, his dark red eyes scanned Lin Chi’s body: “Fair trade, now that you have got what you want, it’s your turn.”
“…”
Listening to the calm voice of the other party, Lin Chi agreed very readily this time: “Okay, I will find him.”
“I will locate you. When the observer meets you, I will appear immediately.” The judge and Lin Chi looked at each other: “I temporarily removed your’exit’ function and gave you’ In order to save the world, please find him as soon as possible.”
Following the words of the judge, Lin Chi, who had been unable to move, finally regained control of his body. He opened the menu interface and looked at it, and the original “Quit Game” option really disappeared.
“I have no interest in saving the world, just acting out of my own hobby. But… are you threatening me?”
——The current one cannot quit the game, nor can he directly quit through defeat. It can be said that they are trapped in this game and cannot escape. These functions will only reappear if the request of the judge is fulfilled.
“Of course it’s not a threat.”
The gray-haired Yu Jie put her arms around her chest, her tone was still calm, she didn’t sound like the judge should be at all: “To be exact, this is’coercion’.”
“Is it okay to be so straightforward?” Lin Chi laughed.
“On the ship that is about to sink, no matter how lazy the craftsman will fill the hole.” The judge whispered: “Rather than continue to convince you, I think this is the fastest way.”
Lin Chi didn’t react much to such shameless remarks, but he accepted the other party’s statement frankly: “That’s true.”
“Go, I will send you back to the original world.” The judge said and raised his right hand.
However, Lin Chi’s next words stopped her movements suddenly:
“Have you overlooked a little? People like me may not be afraid of’death’ at all.”
