The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich

A familiar face, a slightly familiar voice, and a completely unfamiliar physique are the first feelings Timiret gave me again.

"The letter was sent directly to you? Didn't it reveal that I was here?"

"Of course, I came here right after I got the letter. Is there really a Ham... the remains of the sage civilization?"

"Of course, otherwise, why would I have asked you here. The maid who was with me should be a pure artificial soul, didn't you find out?"

"True or not, back then... my current research direction is not like this. I heard that the research of pure artificial souls has not been smooth, and now there are results?"

"Not smooth?"

It would be strange if little Timmy didn't have any secrets to get to this point, and he couldn't hide the strangeness of his soul, but there are some things that don't need to be entangled to the end, especially after reaching a contract with the God of Wisdom, our cooperation has reached a new level.

And with some things spread out on the table, the identity of little Timiret is not a big deal, but after knowing his identity, I was surprised that he didn't know about the research of artificial souls.

As far as I know, in the Spiral Tower, the largest relic of the sage civilization, there is a tombstone inscribed with the three major "crimes" of this race. Soul, life creation."

But now little Timiret actually told me that their research on artificial souls is not going well, which undoubtedly aroused my curiosity.

"Well, it has been very difficult. In fact, the essence of the soul still cannot be circumvented. Except for the Creator, no one can create the essence of the soul out of thin air. Pure calculation accumulation cannot reach the level of the soul. If you want to create an artificial soul, you must activate it. He, making it an active soul with all kinds of emotions and the possibility of evolution, can only integrate more natural souls, which has obviously stepped into an evil way."

"... Isn't that the same as a necromancer?"

Use soul as material to construct new soul creations, and play with the structure of soul and body. Wasn't it the patent of necromancers in the past?

"Yeah, the innovative technology that has been worked so hard is actually left over by others. It is a mockery of the technicians of the sage civilization. But as far as I know, at least before the end of civilization, there should be no technology in this area." What a leap forward."

I nodded, I can barely be regarded as an expert in the study of souls, and I can also make some guesses about the technology used by the sage civilization to build artificial souls. From what Timmy said, it can be seen that,

Their artificial souls use pure computing power to form logical abilities, but just like computers in other worlds, no matter how much computing is accumulated, if no qualitative change is formed, they still cannot be called a complete "person".

"In this way, it is somewhat similar to Ta Ling, who can make logical inferences, but has no self and feelings."

"What is similar is a set of techniques. Do you think those mages can't rob tombs?"

"puff."

I laughed out loud. Those images of wise men wearing golden monocles and robes were suddenly replaced by honest and strong men carrying shovels and holding Luoyang shovels.

In fact, many ancient technologies and magics came out in this way. It is true that mages are good at unlucky luck. A lucky thief, mountain dweller, or farmer accidentally found the ruins, and after the news spread, those mages ran faster than others. What's the matter, by the way, this time it's not too far from the country of mages, so there won't be mage organizations participating.

"That's all. It shouldn't be a taboo, right?"

In my impression, the civilization of sages was destroyed by the punishment of gods, and because of the regular cleaning system of jihad, gods are still very uncomfortable with mortals. Ordinary death is not directly punished by God.

"The simple technology is fine, but they have developed the artificial body and soul preservation technology. You know the Tongtian Tower, um, the Tongtian Tower in that cape, it is actually the soul preservation center. Countless of them In the cubicles, the brains and souls of wise men are kept, and they can still study in them, just waiting for the regeneration sequence."

Regeneration sequence? It seems that I heard an interesting word. Under Timiret's explanation, I finally know what those great engineers did back then.

Different from the mainstream archaeological discussion of the civilization by mages, since they are called sages, those great engineers are not fools without vision, nor can they do such stupid acts as the immortality of the whole people. After all, people with a little vision know the carrying range of the world is limited.

But they still go too far. They evaluate the value of "people", and those who reach a certain threshold can get immediate immortality. Others wait in the Tongtian Tower to wait for the regeneration line, and determine the interval of resurrection and the number of years of life according to the value. According to the needs of the society, the population will be increased and the population will be decreased. If this continues, the speed of expansion will indeed reach the same level as the population, but there is one thing they have not thought through clearly.

"So, isn't it equivalent to all souls being imprisoned in Tongtian Tower? There are only newborns who come out of reincarnation, but no dead who return to reincarnation. The total number of souls possessed by the sage civilization will continue to increase. As a result, the balance will be destroyed, and it is impossible for the chaos side to allow a unified civilization to appear. The reduction of the dead will directly lead to the reduction of the resources of the Styx River, which will directly threaten the circulation of the lower planes, and the gods on the order side..."

"How can those who pursue the truth worship the gods, and how the restricted world view explores the truth of the world, so mages and engineers only respect the gods. Similarly, sages do not believe in the gods, and even some people have begun to study the gods. There are those who catch the gods, there are gods who thought they lacked faith and fell, and there are several who took the gods, and there were not a few gods who fell because of this.”

Needless to say the rest of the words, people will die if they die. If they die to such an extent, they offend the two camps at the same time. By the way, they directly understand the foundation of jihad and determine their doomed fate.

"It seemed that the seven towers of Tongtian were all destroyed back then. All the souls who thought they had obtained immortality all re-entered reincarnation at the same moment. All records are gone. Even if they can survive under the punishment of God, the deadly plague against the race All lives have been taken away, and the civilization of the sages has come to an end."

Timiret's words were a little bit embarrassing, but he didn't have much grief from personal experience. For him, it was just the knowledge and memory of the sage, not his own experience, and more just lamenting those mysteries and loss of knowledge.

There is no need to mention the past, but if it is related to the future, it is necessary to ask more. Since Katarina came from that ruin, there must be something wrong there.

"That is to say, the artificial soul back then was just a technology similar to the tower spirit, and it required a lot of natural souls to make the artificial soul obtain itself?"

"Yes, but it's hard to say clearly. So many years have passed, maybe the technology has become more perfect. By the way, we also had tower spirits back then, and the name of the tower spirit of the mage tower was adopted from our tower spirit of Tongtian Tower. He is the highest masterpiece of artificial souls, with amazing computing power, he can independently manage countless biological compartments in the tower."

"Does he have an ego?"

"No, that is strictly prohibited. First of all, to create an artificial soul with self and feelings, other natural souls must be annihilated. The more powerful the artificial soul, the more natural souls it needs, which equals a large-scale murdered, and once the seven star sages...that is, the title of the seven super tower spirits of the Tongtian Tower has gained the self, who will rule and who will really not know."

Hearing this, I couldn't help laughing. I was worried that the artificial intelligence I created would kill me. Sure enough, it's not just the human family on Earth. Human nature is really universal.

"Ha, this plot is really familiar. The next scene will not be the terminator of Skynet War."

【Beep! The Crow's Mouth title is activated. 】

I'm a little tired of the system always making such silly jokes. Now that I think about it, those crow's mouths are all tricked by the system.

[No kidding, there were more than seven Tongtian towers in the civilization of sages back then, and the eighth... the largest Tongtian tower is not far from you. 】

"What?"

【How do you think Katerina came from? 】

"I X, you can't talk about such a big thing earlier?"

【You didn't ask, heck, it should be said that you didn't meet the conditions to trigger the task...... How many messy things do you think I have in my memory bank. 】

In the deepest part of the mountains and canyons, the ruins marked Z-8 have already begun to operate.

"Civilization Reconstruction Project" is his name. For the sake of confidentiality, those who have nothing to do with the plan have no understanding of this Tongtian Tower.

There is no shortage of wise men in the civilization of sages. People of insight have already seen the fate of extinction, so how could they not prepare for it? This Tongtian Tower will only be activated automatically two thousand years after the death of the other seven tower spirits.

However, due to some reasons, the first awakening of Tongtian Tower Z8 was not smooth, and it was soon fell into a deep sleep again. However, more than ten years ago, a reckless adventurer entered the ruins and took away an important component , Let the entire Tongtian Tower start running again.

This Babel Tower even extends underground, and it should have been filled with the souls and brain tanks of great engineers, elite workers, soldiers, but more than half of the compartments are empty.

And in the deepest part of the ground, at the underground spire of Tongtian Tower, in front of Z8's soul throne, several black-robed mages are suffering " ", their skulls have been opened, and their bare brains are exposed under the stimulation of electric current. all the secrets

But the master here has already ignored them, and its eyes have already turned to that void, where there is a distinguished guest, waiting for its invitation.

"Your Majesty Heng, perhaps we already have a common goal."

After a long time, there was a response from the other end of the void.

"At least, we already have a common enemy, the vain and hypocritical gods!" (To be continued.) 88 reading
