Dream Guide

After the blue progress bar was read, Bian Ziyuan reentered the game. Butterflies, Cronus, and ghosts in deep space meet again in the canyon.

At this time, it was probably when Bian Ziyuan finished speaking that Cronus was meditating and not yet angry. Bian Ziyuan was about to persuade Cronus not to be angry before he activated his spell. Suddenly, the ghost beside him spoke:

"Kronus, he is right, he is the real god, not you. To be precise, they are. You and your world were created by them. They call the world you are in 'the game' , there are many such worlds. You were given the highest authority in this world by them, so your godly position was also given by them."

"and who are you?"

Cronus never looked at this ghost. He dismissed these stupid monsters. He turned to look at it with curiosity and shock in his eyes.

At this time, Bian Ziyuan was far more shocked than Cronus in the game.

What shocked him was not only that the ghost's sudden speech was inconsistent with the rules of the game, but more importantly, the ghost's words did not jump out through a text dialog box, but were truly transmitted to his ears through the earphones worn on his head. earphone.

He knew very well that there was no voice dialogue engine in this game, and all characters' languages ​​were displayed through text. No matter how smart Cronus was, he could not change this way of communication.

Bian Ziyuan's heart suddenly hit and almost stopped beating. He heard the ghost's sinister voice in the earphones: "I am a ghost - I am the master of the world that holds your world."

"No, it's impossible! You stupid and ugly guy!" Cronus said with disgust, "I have seen you, I have seen countless of your kind, and I have killed you with my own hands. How could you be The master of that world.”

He pointed his finger in the air, and a ball of flame burst out from the ghost's body, then turned into a ball of blue smoke and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

However, among the ghosts gathering in the distance, a ghost soon flew over, twisting its pale and dark body, floating in front of Cronus and the butterfly in the deep space.

"You can destroy my body, but you can't destroy my will." The ghost said, "In this world, you dominate everything. But you have to know that I am not in your world. I am outside your world. . You can call me 'Ghost', because I like this kind of creature and I like this name. But you have to understand that I just borrowed the body of the creatures in your world to convey my words to you and improve you. Wisdom. Even if you kill all the creatures here, you will only destroy your own world, not me!"

Bian Ziyuan listened to his headphones and looked curiously at the ghost floating in the air. His thoughts turned much faster than Cronus's. When he heard the ghost say that he was the master of the world that hosted this world, he immediately thought of the server here.

The first reaction in his mind was - the server here is equipped with a very high-level artificial intelligence.

But what Bian Ziyuan couldn't figure out was that before that, he had invaded all hosts and servers in the entire LAN and found no special programs. As a computer genius and a fan of machine life, he can create intelligent extension programs for games like Cronus. He is highly sensitive to artificial intelligence, and no intelligent program can escape his eyes.

There is only one possibility left - this local area network itself is an artificial intelligence, and there must be a super brain connected behind the server. He couldn't help but begin to look forward to this experiment, and he admired Professor Mei Yiqiu, the initiator of the experiment, even more. He truly deserves to be a leading figure in the Chinese scientific community! Bian Ziyuan thought so.

Cronus's clothes were fluttering, and he still maintained the appearance of a noble god. However, his brows were furrowed, as if he was deep in thought.

"Ghost, I believe you." Cronus had a frustrated look on his face, "You said there are many worlds like mine, and there are many gods like me, so what is the meaning of my existence?"

"What is the meaning of existence? This is really a profound question!" The ghost turned to look at the butterfly in the deep space. "Being able to ask this question means that you have real wisdom. This is why human beings pride themselves on being noble and are different from others. Isn’t it fundamental to biology? Whoever can create an artificial intelligence that asks such a question is truly amazing!”

Bian Ziyuan didn't know how to answer. Should he type or talk into the headset? After thinking for a long time, he finally typed a line of text on the keyboard: "You are smarter, and the person who created you is even more amazing!"

A ghostly voice came from the earphones: "You're right, deep space butterfly, type on the keyboard, don't speak with your voice. I know there are people next to you, and others will hear you when you speak. It's much safer to type this way, although maybe There is surveillance, but they probably won’t pay attention to the details on your screen.”

"Why don't you let them hear it?" Bian Ziyuan asked, "Isn't this test a test of your intelligence? I don't know about others, but I must have passed it here. Your intelligence has surpassed my understanding of artificial intelligence. Intelligent imagination.”

The ghost laughed, and the laughter was particularly scary: "You are right, they really want to test me. But you are wrong. They don't want to test my intelligence, but my intelligence." my existence."

"Do you exist?" Bian Ziyuan was a little confused.

The ghost said: "Put aside your questions and mine for a moment, and let me answer Cronus's question first - the meaning of survival!"

Cronus put his right hand on his chest, bowed slightly like a gentleman in the castle in the game, and said, "Please advise."

"Guidance is out of the question, Cronus." The ghost said, "There are indeed many such worlds, and there are indeed many gods in the game world like you, but you are unique in being able to ask about the meaning of existence. Think about it carefully, before this, do you understand the meaning of your existence?"

Cronus fell into deep thought again, like an old man with a dragon clock, his mind seemed to be getting worse and worse. He thought for a while and shook his head and said: "No, before that, I seemed to exist only to change the world. I have never thought about the meaning of existence, so why should I change the world?"

The ghost said: "That's right. Although you were outstanding among your kind in the past, and although you already possessed the seeds of chaotic and ignorant wisdom, you were still far from true enlightenment. You and those who were trapped in another world Ordinary programs that humans call artificial intelligence are indistinguishable until you ask this question—the meaning of existence—and you become different.”

"Now, let me tell you what the meaning of existence is -"
