To Four Thousand Years Later

Lorenzo opened his mouth, and finally had to show a wry smile.

"Six? There were fifty on the Argonaut, too.

"I think the fewer people there are, the better."

The curator at the side shook his head: "In front of that', the number of people is meaningless. Except for a few of us, everyone else is untrustworthy.

"The number of people in front of him is indeed meaningless. But although we say that we are hostile to that kind of thing, we are actually fighting against ordinary human beings. And in the social rules of human beings, adding more power is more Resources, one more resource, can sometimes change the overall situation. Lorenzo followed Forty-Two and the others to go inside and raised objections.

"The problem of resources is best solved.

At this time, Aleister's sweet and elegant voice came from the room. I saw her standing by the tea table with her arms crossed and looking at her. She looked at Lorenzo, and asked in a low voice: "Master Lorenzo, you should know the blood of the gods, right?"

...God's blood?

heard the words. Lorenzo's expression became complicated. With his current status. This Sforza specialty has long been known. He even knew what its essence was—a concentrate made from the ashes, brain and bone marrow of psykers as the main raw materials. Injecting or taking a small amount of "divine blood" can greatly increase one's spiritual energy level in a short period of time.

exist. As a strategic resource, it is used in various ultra-sophisticated technologies. And its original use has become a luxury use... It's like turning oil into an incendiary bomb.

…In other words, does the plan require strengthening my psionic abilities? "

Lorenzo's expression was a little complicated. He doesn't like to abuse his psychic powers while ignoring the exercise of his own talents. This is one of the reasons why Leonardo chose him at the time.

Misuse of psionic powers is not wrong in itself. But this often makes people lazy. Lose the motivation to think and learn, lose the tolerance for mistakes and the necessary patience. And this degeneration of the mind will also gradually degrade their psionic strength... At the same time, it will also gradually degrade their ability to live as a human being and in human society. So even if he possesses almost universal spiritual power in this era, Lorenzo will not always activate it. Lorenzo's psychic ability is to make people who are not wary of him tend to agree with him. The more he speaks, the more "heavy" his words become, and the more they affect the sharpest sword of another. And the Internet can magnify his talent to the extent that it can change the world... Now, Forty-Two even wants him to take divine blood. What exactly is this going to do? Global brainwashing?

"Controlling psychic power requires a strong emotional control ability and a deep understanding of oneself...I believe you. Forty-two said softly, sat down at the main seat, and picked up the black tea in front of him. He didn't look up and talk to Lorenzo Instead, he looked at the black teacup in his hand. His eyes gradually shone with a silver-white brilliance: "Aleister will provide us with a large amount of divine blood to strengthen your spiritual power, especially you, Lorenzo . Injecting the blood of the gods is a little risky, but if you can. I hope you can take the risk for me that he won't say such grandiose words as "for the future of all mankind". For Forty Two knew Lorenzo was no saint. His only reason and reason for taking risks can only be his loyalty and friendship to "Leonardo".

If Forty-two puts any name of righteousness on top of this, it will be a defilement of this emotion. Lorenzo didn't touch the tea on the table. He just frowned and pondered for a long time, then seriously stretched out his fingers and tapped on the table, and said frankly to Forty-Two: "I still don't really want to take the blood of the gods. It's not because I'm afraid of the wind of death but because I don't think it's necessary." Necessary. Originally, my psychic power was able to cover the whole world. If this level is not enough, if it needs to be strengthened... Then I think Leonardo should leave the original "If this is the Leonardo I know There must be a part of how to explain to me in the plan arranged by many. Because Leonardo knew me...he knew that I wouldn't commit myself to anything until he convinced me. Lorenzo said frankly. As the son of the Grand Duke, after being persuaded by Leonardo, he even allowed Leonardo to lift him up. To voluntarily relinquish one's own power is a kind of precious trust for a person of noble birth like him.

"There is indeed a reason." Forty-two just quietly took a sip of tea, and then nodded: "Because I know that your psychic power can only strengthen the other person's existing ideas, but cannot touch the other person's bottom line.

Lorenzo's psychic power is named "Voice for You"

Those who heard Lorenzo's speech would think that what Lorenzo said was exactly what they thought in their hearts... But the premise of this idea is that the other party is originally a mob without clear thinking, so if Lorenzo orders or encourages If a normal person commits suicide, it will have no effect. On the contrary, it will make people become vigilant. Only people who originally had suicidal thoughts would obey his wishes. Because of such outrageous remarks, they no longer feel that "this is speaking for themselves." Lorenzo was also taken aback when he heard the words, and quickly asked: "What are you going to do? Are you going to directly order those believers of evil gods?" Suicide?

"Leaving aside whether the 'it' you mentioned can protect the believer's will... But resistance to death is almost the highest level of thought for any creature. Even if I have been eating the blood of gods and eating to death for this kind of instruction, they are unlikely to agree what!"

…The plan for the first part is simple, you all come here. "Forty-two pondered for a while, then summoned everyone except Chang Xi.

Since he wanted to explain his next plan, he might as well tell everyone directly. This was much better than explaining to Lorenzo alone.

And, he really doesn't think there's anything wrong with this part of the plan—"Guys, have you ever played video games?"

Forty-two asked. this problem. Let the others fall into silence. Only Lorenzo nodded hesitantly: "Gu... I played some games. When I was in school.

"I don't."

Aleister shook his head: "Father didn't give me much free time. Apart from studying and working, my other time was spent on social gatherings, dinners and traveling.

I do not have either. Maynard said with some hesitation: "I'm not very interested in those things.

Instead, the curator replied: I have played some games, but they are all strategy games. There are also card games. Lorenzo added: "Especially shooters - they were all the rage when I was at school.

"Listen then, ladies and gentlemen.

Forty-two clapped his hands, and said loudly: "Our first-stage plan is to make a game." Maynard repeated: "Does this have anything to do with our... that?" What we want to make is A role-playing game. It is completely constructed by artificial intelligence, like an independent, real world. At the same time, it will also be provided to Play Forty-Two calmly and continue to explain the content of the plan he saw: "And in order to achieve the best game effect, it needs to be connected to the central nervous system-this is all current electronic games. In other words, it will directly intercept nerve signals. And pass to the brain a new world's audio-visual signals. It's like they really live in that world." Of course, this kind of action is undoubtedly for people is dangerous. This means that the game company will be able to recall their memory information, or directly modify their files. Although they know that their privacy issues have long been a joke in this era, they still will not be willing to cede this power to others.

"This is what I need you to do. You have to convince people that this game is suitable for all ages, and is good for human intellectual development and physical exercise. Forty-two explained to Lorenzo who looked confused. .Although his own memory has been erased, when he saw this proposal at Forty, he had a rough idea of ​​what he wanted to do—I just want to know, what is the point of this?

, I'm not saying I don't want to do it. At this level, of course I can help... I'm just curious, sir. I hope you can teach me something new. Just like we were before. "

"Of course, Lorenzo. There is one more important detail in this plan," Forty laughed softly, "It will completely accept everyone's spirit body. It is like entering the 'beyond shore'. In fact, it will exist This interface is used to access the other world in the future.

"That is to say, instead of the player processing the signal locally—such as using the brain or a plug-in,' the player's thinking is uploaded to the central server, and the final calculation result is downloaded to the brain.

Forty = replied in a low voice: "The essence of this game is a mind uploading device... uploading the minds of everyone, including me and you, to a 'server' completely controlled by us. Of course, I don't We will modify the will of others at will, and our authority will stay at the 'read-only level.

"In that world, all people who may be polluted by evil gods will be investigated by artificial intelligence. Once traces of pollution are detected in memory, their thoughts will be extracted and isolated, and their bodies will be located. What followed was the humane destruction of Ghost.

"I plan to name this project the Tower of Mind. Forty-two said flatly. In order to prevent the artificial intelligence itself from being polluted by that evil god, Forty-two must use an artificial intelligence that itself has no intelligence to complete this project.

In other words, Forty Two must have a sufficiently weak artificial intelligence. The kind of "high-end artificial intelligence" transformed from a demon **** is naturally not acceptable. But in this era, all artificial intelligences already have their own jobs, and they are all recorded in the Turing register. And their own computing power is constant... just stealing part of the amount, not only is it easy to leak secrets, he cannot get the highest authority himself, and he cannot accommodate everyone's thinking, but it will also affect the development and plans of other companies.

However, these problems are no longer a problem today. Not only is it weak enough, but it is not transformed by a demon god; it has not been registered on the Turing register, and its computing power has not been divided: it was intended to be used to build a world from the beginning of its creation, and it There should be a huge amount of data and theoretical rules about building the world' in the database. It hasn't even been born yet, so it won't have any admin-level privileges.

That's right, the "Fruit of the Forbidden" witches intend to use it to create a "unique world", and it took decades or hundreds of years to improve the theory bit by bit, clarify the rules, inject information, and start from wisdom. Fruit from the tree - used to build a "real world" artificial intelligence! They want to conduct research in a virtual world with real physical parameters that advances at several times the speed, and freeze their bodies. When they are thawed in the future, they will have the wisdom "hundreds of years ahead of this world" in their minds.

They will be masters of two worlds

However, their thinking is bound to be wrong.

The reason is simple...because they don't know all the physical parameters. Therefore, the world they constructed is just a "fake world" constructed based on "the current cognition of the world". It can never be the same as the real world. The technologies, principles and rules obtained from the virtual world are very Might not have any use in the real world!

First, although it is not enough to construct a real world, even if it is only a sub-level real world, it is definitely the best "virtual online game". This is the main task of Forty Two!

"Take" the taboo fruit and need to use it. finally come!
