After hanging up with Salaman, Hao Ren went back to the little elf—this little guy with a bunch of dull hair on his head had already had a hot chat with other people, or she was hot in that balabal alone, Besides Lily, the only one who could keep up with her speed of speech and thoughts was Vivian who already knew a little about goblins.
At this time, the little one had already learned about the "Fairy Queen" from Vivienne. This fact surprised the little one. She excitedly ran around beside Vivienne's head, chirping like a thousand ducks: " Queen, queen?! You said you are the queen of the goblins? You also activated the crystal of Nakdar? The goblins on Nakdar have already admitted it? Have you gone to the hub? Have you gone to the throne of the end? The throne also recognizes you? Ah? You said that the final throne has a blue screen? How could such a thing happen! That is a goddess design... Eh? You said that the main system has passed the verification despite the blue screen? Wow! It’s amazing! The goblin wants to go have a look!"
The little one was so excited that Vivian was dazzled by her. In the end, Hao Ren reached out and stopped the little fairy from mid-air: "Wait a minute, please be quiet first, we have something to ask you."
The little goblin still couldn't restrain her excitement, and kept mumbling something like "the queen has finally appeared" and "I must tell everyone the news quickly", so that Hao Ren yelled in her ear. It took several times for her to react suddenly: "Huh? Are you talking to me?"
"I'll make a long story short. Our original mission was to take away the Amantir crystal from this planet." Hao Ren knew that talking to goblins must not go off topic. Straight to the point, "The existence of you surviving goblins came as an accident to us—in our original plan, we would have taken that crystal and blown up all of Amantir."
The little goblin was stunned for a moment, and let out a high-frequency scream: "Ah—"
"Quiet, quiet!" Nangong Wuyue, who was next to her, was startled and quickly summoned a water polo to enclose the little goblin. sound.
Wu Yue removed the water polo after confirming that the little guy wouldn't yell anymore. Hao Ren looked at the little guy in the air with a heavy head: "Keep your voice down! Aren't you afraid of calling those monsters out?"
"This is not on their patrol route!" The little goblin said confidently with her hands on her hips, and then her expression changed into nervousness in an instant, "You are going to blow up the entire planet?! What about the goblins? And you really have the ability ?The Guardians have spent all these years failing to take Amantir back—they haven't even gotten here!"
"Of course we have this ability. The only problem now is the goblins. We have to find a way to take you away." Hao Ren frowned. "You said that all the goblins are now fused with the core of Amantir? What about you?" Can it still escape from the earth's core?"
"It's okay to break away, but the problem is that after breaking away, it needs to be fused with a new carrier, and it must be a resonance crystal—whether it's an original crystal or a crystal processed by a goddess." The little fairy looked a little distressed Grabbing her long hair, "Do you have any crystals? Lots and lots of crystals!"
Goblins cannot exist independently of crystals. Hao Ren understood this when he met those noisy little guys in Nakdal. Although these little guys seem to be flying around freely, they are actually flying outside. At best, it is just an "interactive interface", and its body is still those crystals, and the only crystal in Amantir that can house goblins is the core of this planet.
Crystals elsewhere have been tainted by the power of the Lord of Madness.
Vivienne frowned and thought for a while, then asked, "Can the Amantir crystal be used?"
"No, the Amantir crystal is special." Xiao Budian immediately shook his head, "The goddess has already filled the inside of that crystal, there is no storage space for the goblin to lodge in it..."
"Wait, storage space?" Hao Ren felt that he had caught a key word, "You mean, the goblins are actually 'stored' in the crystal? What kind of process is the symbiotic relationship between you and the crystal?"
The little guy thought about it, and described it figuratively: "Just get in, then lie down, sometimes lying on my stomach..."
"Okay, okay, you don't need to explain..." Hao Ren knew that he would never be able to hear any valuable information from the other party's muddled description, so he slapped the data terminal , "You test her... 'information structure'."
The data terminal immediately flew to Xiao Budian's side, and projected a beam of light that could be used to analyze the information clusters of the information layer on her body, and the latter rolled in mid-air laughing and laughing: "Hey hee hee... tickle, tickle to death!"
Hao Ren's eyes lit up when he saw this scene: For ordinary living beings, they would not feel it when scanned by the analysis beam, even creatures in the energy state, but this little fairy actually said "itch", this It proved that his guess was right.
Sure enough, the data terminal quickly completed the analysis, and even its voice was tinged with surprise: "Unbelievable, partner—this machine really didn't expect these fairies to be life in a discrete state of information! From a material level, they are actually does not exist!"
Everyone was stunned, and even Lily, a domineering dog, couldn't help tugging at Hao Ren's sleeve: "Landlord, what does it mean when you translate it into Chinese?"
Hao Ren thought for a while, and then briefly explained: "This is a branch of knowledge in the unified theory of information. In short, it describes an entity that does not exist in the real world, but has all physical properties. Individuals that can be observed.
"Let me give you an example. If something is placed in front of you and you can observe it and feel it, then you are actually exposed to the information it sends out. For example, you can smell its taste and feel its hardness. and temperature, and you can feel its weight when you pick it up—these are the additional information of the substance, and this information allows you to confirm the existence of a substance.
"But what if there is nothing actually there, but just keep sending corresponding messages to you? For example, let you feel that you have seen an entity, mark the weight and temperature of this entity for you, and let you think yourself His fingers touched some kind of hard surface—does the target thing exist or not?"
A few students who were not good at studying next to me began to see mosquito coils: Wuyue raised her head in a daze, Sanba lowered her head to pick her nails, and rolled and started chasing her own tail, but Lily was still able to keep up with her train of thought and asked a good question: "If all the information is true and self-consistent, doesn't the target thing exist?"
"Yes, this is the upper-level manifestation of the unified theory of information: if all information is true and self-consistent, then the target thing exists, and this state is also called information condensed state. But the discrete state of information is different. It expresses the situation of 'all the information is true and self-consistent, but the target thing does not exist', that is to say, the attribute of 'non-existence' itself serves as a characteristic code of the target thing, just like a hidden annotation Same, you can't feel it, and it won't take effect in the expression, but it is the property that determines the whole system... "
Lily thought for a while, and said sincerely, "I can't keep up."
"The grand unified theory is so troublesome to explain, but I have an easier way to let you understand what these goblins are all about—" Hao Ren shrugged and turned to look at the data terminal, "Open the information observation filter. "
"This is a top-level detection function. This thing consumes a lot of energy." The data terminal muttered, but it still cooperated with a function that was not commonly used.
As a layer of light curtain spread out around the data terminal, the world before everyone's eyes changed.
Things still exist, but everything seems to be covered with a thin "membrane", on which there seem to be countless tiny, transparent things that are almost impossible to observe, and when you look closely, those tiny things Immediately comes to mind: Hardness XX, Temperature XX, Color XX, Name XX, Distance XX, Density XX…
Countless information makes people dizzy.
"Where's the goblin?!" Lily exclaimed, and the others immediately woke up from this wonderful perception, and they found that the goblin was gone.
Hao Ren smiled and pointed to a certain direction in the air: "It's still there."
Lily immediately looked in the direction of Hao Ren's finger, and a lot of words appeared in her sight:
//A goblin is suspended in front of you, 0.732435 pan away from you
//The morphological characteristics of the goblin are #reference part-ignore
//The goblin starts to look at you curiously
//The goblin seems to be a little confused because of your exclamation just now, she waved her hand in front of your eyes, but you didn't see it
//The leprechaun is yelling and she says-
[Where are you looking, the goblin is right here! ]
//The goblin is getting angry
//The goblin is angry, it takes 0.15 seconds
Lily blinked, but there was still nothing in front of her eyes—except the words.
"Wow!!" Elizabeth exclaimed excitedly, "It's amazing!"
"Terminal, turn off the filter."
The blue light filling the surface of the data terminal dissipated immediately, and the world in front of everyone returned to normal. The words and symbols describing the information disappeared, and the goblin—she was suspended in front of everyone, looking real and unmistakable.
"Such a twittering little one..." Vivian couldn't help stretching out her hand, and the little goblin came over curiously, hugging her finger, "It doesn't exist?"
"In fact, you don't need to care about it. It's just that there is no actual mapping from the material level, but on the information level, her existence is undoubted." Hao Ren smiled. , that is existence."
Lily shook her head vigorously. This pile of things reminded her of the time when she first entered Peking University: "So is there any meaning to this attribute of a goblin?"
"Of course it makes sense—it's very difficult to transport information in a condensed state, but if it's in a discrete state..." Hao Ren said while looking at the data terminal, "it can be directly stored in the virtual memory. Terminal, how big is your hard drive? "
The data terminal suddenly trembled: "Partner! You are not planning to store all the fairies in Amantir in the hard disk of this machine!"
"The goblin is just the basic AI of the node crystal, and their information volume will not be too large. How much space does a group of drivers take up for you?" Hao Ren waved his hand, "Don't you usually brag about your performance and memory? gone?"
"It depends on what is stored in it!" The data terminal went crazy, "If you want to store a lot of twittering goblins in it, I would rather save it in this machine! At least it doesn't move when you don't click to play! These goblins Can you find a pause button for this machine?"
The corner of Hao Ren's mouth twitched: "I was thinking that the day when you return to the factory for overhaul is not far away, right? Or do you miss Doudou?"
Data Terminal: "..."
