The Record of Unusual Creatures

Readx; The giant turtle rock station slid silently and slid a few kilometers along the mountain in a more desolate direction: Hao Ren did not want his actions to lead people to the cave where Nolan was hiding. He found that the speeding process of the spacecraft was much slower than expected, and it lacked smoothness in running, which confirmed his speculation from the side: this is not the real giant turtle rock.

This is just a spacecraft that is very similar in appearance to his memory, simulated by a huge program. Because the sacred equipment made by the Heiling Empire is incomprehensible to mortal civilization, the ship’s The core part is completely fictitious and cannot go beyond the knowledge base of the simulation itself.

“Do you really think we can reach the ‘Boundary’?” The data terminal watched the spacecraft accelerate away from the atmosphere in a clumsy way, and couldn’t help but pick it up. “Does the controller behind the scenes allow someone to explore the boundaries of the stage?”

"It may be stopped by someone, or something else is blocked," Hao Ren nodded. "Even if the world is controlled by a pure program, it should also have some kind of self-protection mechanism. This mechanism is definitely It will prevent data overflow. But before we can observe the "violation" part of the world."

The corpse terminal sighed and curiously asked: "What do you think is the essence of the world?"

"Maybe it's a computer program, a virtual world, and the like," said Hao Ren casually. He knew the world's falsehood and immediately developed this conjecture, and there are many similar speculations. "The program says "It's one of the most reliable ones," the world's resetting process, and the details mentioned in Nolan's memory. These are very similar to the characteristics of the virtual world. And the state of the giant turtle rock and the pistol. Can also prove this."

"The spaceship we are riding now is virtual. Where is the real giant turtle rock?" The corpse terminal raised a very critical question, "Is still in your portable space?"

Hao Renyi waved his hand: "No, I have confirmed that there is no spaceship in the portable space. But I suspect that I have never opened the portable space from beginning to end - I want to let go of my thoughts. We are now in a virtual world." Everything that has been experienced here is actually isolated from reality. The matter of 'opening the space to take things out of space' is probably just a process that takes place in my mind. I also remember that when we first returned from Zhuomu, we found out The mercenary card can't be brought out, and the dirty clothes are still in good condition? Because all the processes are simulated by the program... although we can't find the interface of the program here."

The corpse terminal was once again. Then I continued to sit on the console in a daze: her position on the spacecraft was the slot on the console, but now she can't get in, she has nothing to do, she has to sit on her own slot and pretend that she is very useful. . Hao Ren looked at such a terminal, could not help but reveal a thoughtful look, probably this expression is too obvious. The latter couldn't help but squint at him: "What do you want?"

"I probably understand what is going on with you," Hao Ren pointed at the other person's body. "For example, you will become this look."

The eyes of the terminal suddenly lit up: "Why?"

"I didn't say it, the world can only simulate what it understands, because its analog function is a program, and the program is rigid. It can't understand my secluded pistol, so it simulates a bullet that can be repelled. The pirated goods can not understand the principle of the giant turtle rock platform, so it simulates a messy shell," Hao Ren pointed at the terminal. "Similarly, it can't understand what a pda is a thing that can be said to be full of thoughts and more noisy than people..."

The corpse terminal squinted and looked down at himself with a stiff expression: "...he was a fairy board..."

"I estimate that there is no artificial intelligence at this level in the world, or even if artificial intelligence is different from yours, then the world's simulation program is circled," Hao Ren rolled his eyes. "Maybe it It is by scanning the soul to determine the shape of the individual. Your brain is too human, the world will simulate you as a human being, but you are an inorganic matter. The world will simulate you as a dead person, plus you never It will be quiet, so the world will set you to die and not stop..."

Looking at the blonde girl's stunned appearance, Hao Ren said the last sentence: "The above are all I guess. But I guess you can't come up with a more reliable guess than this, so this process is the only explanation currently. ”

The terminal called down from the console at a glance: "Why is this shape selected for this machine?! Isn't the other image not good?"

"You asked me who I asked," Hao Ren turned his eyes to the sky. "Probably the system default emoticon?"

He said this, suddenly came up with an idea: "It may also be because you are on the soul level is really such a ... ... trough!"

The terminal was scared by this "slot": "You dry!?"

Hao Renxuan looked at each other: "You are really wasting your own image! Can't you usually be better?"

Terminal: "...so what are you talking about?"

Hao Ren turned his hand and turned around, no longer taking care of this mess to the incredible pda. Turn to concentrate on the situation outside the spacecraft. He is still very confident in his own speculation. Although he has not been able to understand the true laws of the world, he has already determined the "simulation" of the world through the experiment of the Psionic Pistol and the observation of the Giant Turtle. Mechanism, so the variation of the data terminal is not a matter of choice, but completely "changed an image debut", but because of the imperfect simulation function of the world, pda has become a dead girl.

At present, it seems that the data terminal is the most mutated one of all his tools. Even if it is the giant turtle rock number that becomes an abstract labyrinth inside, there is no serious variation in the terminal shape of the adult. Hao Ren guessed that this is probably related to the high degree of personalization of the terminal: a living soul is more complicated than any high technology.

Suddenly, he suddenly felt a bit awkward and couldn’t help but whisper to himself: "Tools..."

When he usually quarrels with the data terminal, he can't help but treat the other person as a human being - otherwise he can't be so noisy with a pda, but after entering the world, the terminal is obviously the world. The judgment mechanism is a tool. Although it is modeled as a human form, the process of "simulation" itself implies the inhuman nature of the object being simulated, because "human" does not need to be simulated here.

The voice of the terminal screaming beside: "Are you talking about it?"

Hao Ren said casually: "Do you say that you are a tool or a person?"

When he just said it, he felt that this topic was a bit uncomfortable. It seemed that he asked too directly, but he did not expect that the terminal did not care: "There is a difference? The Greek gods do not study this, because everything in the world is a part of the empire. But if you have to tangled up... the proper calculation tools for this machine, precision tools! Very powerful!"

I heard this goods so proudly declare that I am a tool, Hao Ren slaps on the head: "I know that it is a waste of feelings for you."

At this point, the attention of the terminal has been transferred to the outside of the spacecraft. Although the "big turtle rock platform" of this half-hanger is strange in its operation, it at least has the ability to fly into space. Now the spacecraft is already in the universe. And the Zhuo Xing star is in the corner of the window below the spacecraft, has contracted into a fist-sized blue ball. Looking at the starry sky outside, the terminal is thoughtful: "This machine originally thought that the world would take a more active defense. For example, it is forbidden to lift our spacecraft, or more serious, to limit all aircraft. Can operate in the atmosphere."

"Since it has successfully flown out of the atmosphere, it confirms me a guess," Hao Ren nodded slightly. "The virtual scene of this world has a big premise."

"What premise?"

"It must conform to the laws of nature and must be 'real'," Hao Ren pointed to the planet of Zhuomu, which is getting farther and farther. "In order to improve the 'reality' of the world, some programs must completely restore all the details of nature, since Sky, then there must be means to reach the sky. Since there is a universe, the spacecraft must be able to use it. It can prevent humans from launching spacecraft with things like meteorites or natural disasters, but it cannot formulate a natural law that does not exist. To invalidate the principle of the spacecraft - because there is no such natural law in the real universe, it can't be formulated."

"Well, it makes sense, but we seem to have not even encountered any obstacles when we lifted up to the present." The terminal has some doubts. "Is this world so letting us explore the border?"

Hao Ren's brow wrinkles: "I am also strange... but I don't care about it. I am going to continue moving forward. Let's see if there is any end to this dream!"

The terminal raises the finger and refers to the picture from the external monitor: "Maybe... there is the end." (To be continued.)
