Forces of Temptation

Chapter 209: Biological Evolution (1)

Views:

Although a few people have eaten in the conscious world, they just made a false move and deceived their brains. The body is still in a state of hunger and needs to replenish energy urgently.

It's a pity that the world channel is in chaos.

The emotions of the players are not anger at all, but confusion.

They don't know why "Adam" will suddenly combine with "Cube Ark", and they don't understand why Qu Jinsha, who has been staying in the single-player chart and making a fortune, will enter a little-known team "like a dream" Stir in water.

At present, neither of them can trust the two teams that can decide their destiny.

... But their fate is in their hands.

With the current chaotic public opinion trends in the outside world, it may be unrealistic to want to eat out.

They simply stayed in the room, with an apple in hand, to fill their stomachs first.

Yuan Mingqing just got out of a chase, jumping out of the window and escaping for his life. Now his stomach is very uncomfortable and his appetite is not good, so he plays with apples and thinks.

Li Yinhang was still wary of him, and asked him, "Aren't you hungry?"

Yuan, Ming and Qing looked at the apple: "I remember that the first person to discover gravity was a man named Isaac."

Li Yinhang didn't know what he did when he suddenly mentioned this, so he looked at Nan Zhou and Jiang Fang.

Jiang Fang said, "That's right, here, we usually call him Newton."

Yuan Mingqing said: "He is very interesting. After we discovered your existence, he became a key subject of our planetary research."

Among the three, Li Yinhang and Jiang Fang both put down the food in their hands, except Nan Zhou, who was still eating apples with serious and respectful attitudes and at the same time giving away a little ear.

Yuan Mingqing took the initiative to mention the doubts that they had been caring about since they entered the game, but no one was willing to answer them.

Why are they being pulled into this game for no reason

What does the "people" behind it want to do

Yuan Mingqing knew what they wanted to ask.

He squeezed the apple in his palm and gave the answer: "To be precise, your planet was created by us."

Li Yinhang was stunned for a moment.

A word of bullshit is about to come out.

Jiang Fang was also obviously startled.

He had a similar speculation, but after being confirmed, the first feeling was as if he was in a ridiculous story.

Among the three, Nan Zhou was the most receptive to this information.

He looked at the two of them and said calmly, "I was also created by you."

Li Yinhang: "..." Also.

Yuan Mingqing added: "Or, our original purpose was not to create you."

Nan Zhou asked, "What do you mean by 'we'?"

Yuan, Ming and Qing threw the apple in his palm between his hands. After carefully organizing the language, he said: "I have learned your language system, so please express it in words you can understand. We seem to be so-called 'High-dimensional animals', but your growth path is what we have traveled; if you continue to grow, you are likely to become us eventually."

… Li Yinhang felt that he could not understand very well.

Yuan Mingqing also laughed lightly at his tongue twister: "Well, let me give an example."

He held up the apple.

"If we are this ripe apple, you are the apple saplings that have just sprouted and arched out of the ground. We are in different states, but both originated from a seed."

"Our growth history is exactly the same as yours."

"After tens of millions of years of evolution, historical evolution, the division of nations, and the gathering and dispersal of tribes, later, in order to facilitate survival, we have mastered technology and realized technological evolution - we have successfully realized the transition from carbon-based life to silicon-based organisms. Transformation, we are no longer dependent on sex for survival, our consciousness can be uploaded and saved to the cloud, and the race has hope for long-term survival."

"Later, technology has achieved a leap forward - we can manipulate data to reshape simple creatures, creatures, and even a data flesh that completely simulates the human body - for example, you see me now."

"We can recreate a city in a virtual space, we can incarnate as adults to walk in the city, or we can break up into a piece of data at any time, as long as we want."

When listening to the stories of Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, Nan Zhou took the

The apples in it were eaten clean.

He said, "I have always had something that I don't understand. But your answer made me understand a little bit."

Yuan Mingqing: "What?"

Nan Zhou said, "I was created by the cartoonist 'Never'."

Yuan Mingqing: "I know."

Nan Zhou said: "I was created by people living in this era, so I have the appearance of modern people, and I can understand some things about people, but some things are still in the process of learning."

Having said that, he touched his slightly sore and swollen waist, and continued: "So, I heard Brother Fang say that when there will be a high-dimensional audience watching us outside the venue, I think it is very interesting: you as human beings The evolution of life has changed, how can we understand and appreciate the joys, sorrows and joys of these 'lower creatures' in your eyes? We will not have the feeling that we watch ants walk, but do not understand what the ants are doing. ?"

Yuan Mingqing laughed at himself: "No. Because we were also 'lower creatures' a long time ago. Just like you."

"But this creates new problems."

Nan Zhou accurately threw the apple core into the trash can: "Have you lived for a long time?"

"No." Yuan Mingqing said, "I was born less than 200 years ago."

Nan Zhou was stunned when he heard this answer.

When Nan Zhou began to talk from Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, because he was not a human being, his emotions were the most stable of the three.

Seeing that he has special mood swings now, Yuan Mingqing was curious for a moment: "What's wrong?"

Nan Zhou said to himself, "Then there may be something wrong with your intelligence."

Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties: "..."

He wanted to slap himself.

Look at your bitch.

What is he doing with such a thing? !

Nan Zhou ignored the changes in the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and continued to ask: "So, your evolution should have been completed for a long time. Why, as the products of the new generation, can you still understand the joys, sorrows and sorrows of mankind?"

Yuan Mingqing sighed lightly.

What he is going to say next is about the core secrets of his world. If he speaks out, it is a serious violation of the law of secrecy.

However, only if he said it, it would be more beneficial to them now.

It's just that once he really says it, "The Ark" must win.

Otherwise, once the "Cube Ark" loses, he will completely lose the protection of the "Wish Rule" in this world.

When he returns to the world that belongs to him, what awaits him will only be endless suffering in hell.

Yuan Mingqing said: "Because of our technology, our desire and thinking are locked together."

"We are data, but we also make mistakes, and we also have problems in non-stop computing, and eventually, the moment computing automatically stops, our lives are gone."

"But our lifespan is still very long compared to yours. Our average lifespan starts at about 1,000 cosmic years."

"Because life is greatly extended, the cost of enjoyment is infinitely close to zero, and our need for reproduction is also reduced."

"Reproduction is just a pastime when you are bored. When someone is bored, as long as they apply to the relevant institutions, they can customize the calculation according to their personal needs and receive an ideal new child."

"When a new child is born, it is automatically protected by our legal rules and is automatically imported into all our knowledge that has been passed down to this day. Therefore, every new born is basically equipped with the ability to survive in our world. knowledge."

Nan Zhou added: "Understood. Knowledge does not include wisdom."

… Yuan Mingqing wanted to hit someone when he heard it.

But he thought about it, but he didn't protest.

Jiang Fang also suddenly understood: "But it was also because the data was entered at birth, which caused the thoughts and desires in your brain to be affected by the predecessors, so they were locked with high intensity?"

Yuan Mingqing nodded: "... After all, for us, it is a steel seal that has been knocked on our brains since birth."

Nan Zhou asked: "Is no one questioning it?"

"Yes." Yuan Mingqing said, "But when it comes to reform, some people will question, do you make a newborn like a fool, learn knowledge from scratch, and finally cultivate a fool with a brain capacity development degree of only 10? "

… Li Yinhang, who thinks his brain capacity development degree is only 7, feels

He was shot in the knee.

"Of course, the ills don't stop there."

"We have clear barriers, clear classes and clear rules."

"People who are willing to create and dare to break through enjoy a high status with us. They are a kind of people with higher authority and the power to make rules. They can mobilize better resources to serve others."

"People who don't want to take responsibility are the second-class people, who enjoy less authority. For example, the first-class people can eat foie gras casually, and the second-class people can only enjoy it once every half a cosmic month. But other than this inconvenience In addition, they can enjoy life more comfortably. The number of these people is the largest.”

"Also, those who break the rules."

"These three types of people will be assigned to data factories to engage in tedious and unseen data work, like scavengers in the underground, only to serve the first and second types of people to better their lives, until the data decays. .—it takes a long time."

… If he loses this bet, so will his fate for the next 800 years.

Yuan Mingqing lowered his head and adjusted his emotions slightly before continuing: "We still have a prominent social problem - the birth rate of children is very low, but the suicide rate is very high. Because people live too long as data, they will I don't find it interesting."

Jiang Fang said: "So, you put the focus of creation on developing new entertainment?"

As the conversation progressed, they finally got to the core of the conversation, which was their biggest concern.

"You guys, how did you choose us?"

Yuan Mingqing replied: "As I said at the beginning. Our original purpose was not to create you at all."

"In the beginning, we just wanted to make a 1:1 perfect replica of the ecological cycle of the universe, a rich and interesting large-scale game copy."

"This dungeon contains large areas of plants, vast plains, abundant water sources, and continuous mountains. In short, it is designed for us to play. This was when we first started uploading our consciousness to the cloud. The development plan of the game project was still a huge test for our technical ability at that time.”

"So, in this sub

On the day Ben was born, it was listed on our daily active list - which can be understood as your hot search. "

"In the beginning, it was widely positioned and very popular. It could be used for parent-child camping, animal observation, and wild camping for some hardcore players. The most amazing thing is that after the initial script was drawn up, we found that It has a certain evolutionary nature. We just need to speed up time relatively fast, and every once in a while, it will evolve a brand new species.”

"However, because of the high level of simulation, everything runs automatically according to the rules. During a certain cosmic day, a large-scale ecological disaster occurred in the copy itself, and the erupting volcano wiped out almost all the creatures above."

Seeing Li Yinhang's incredible expression on the opposite side, Yuan Mingqing shrugged: "Yes. The copy we developed was too realistic, and a huge collapse accident occurred."

"It's not impossible to repair it with our technical level, but it's no longer necessary. ... New games are emerging one after another, and the original designers were too ambitious, resulting in form over content. Players' needs are limited to Playing a camping + adventure game, but the designers added too much irrelevant material - the ocean is too big, the forest is too vast, those amazing creatures, and the update iteration is too slow."

"In short, in the end, it was eliminated by our time."

"After the copy went to natural destruction, we put this copy away and didn't care about it."

Li Yinhang: "..."

She said in a low voice, "The 'creature' you're talking about isn't a dinosaur, is it?"

The author has something to say: the previous foreshadowing has begun to be recycled w
