I looked at Xi Ling in front of me, and the latter was thinking hard. Both of us were silent for a long time, and finally Xi Ling blinked uncertainly: "... I don't know how I was attracted there at that time."
... I knew it would be this kind of answer. It seems that Xiling has always been in a slightly confused state. In other words, is this because Abyss Xiling divided more than half of his intelligence when the old empire network was split
"You're not sure what connection you have with Abyss Xiling, are you?" I glanced at Xiling, and I still felt uncomfortable: the other party was facing Tavel's face, but he was someone else in his bones. When I was talking to her, I was still I have to remind myself not to call the wrong name at any time, you said how much effort it takes, in the end I couldn't bear it and had to remind her a little bit, "Then what, you change your appearance, I always feel that you seem to be like this at any time. It looks like a few more shadow clones split in front of me."
Xi Ling rolled her eyes and thought for a while, then changed into a shallow appearance with a "bang"...
I was sweating profusely: "Change one for another, this one is even more unreliable—if you use this image, I dare not discuss any issues with you that require expressing opinions."
Then Xiling changed several looks in a row in a "bang bang bang" manner. The speed and variety of images were jaw-dropping. She is more proficient in using her abilities, and it is much easier to change her appearance than before; second, this is a girl with her own custom skin and emoticons...
In the end, Xiling finally chose an image that seemed to have no flaws: a girl who looked ordinary, tall and thin, and then continued to discuss the topic with me: "I usually check around the Rift Valley. And according to Tavel's account, the backbone nodes are called every 60 seconds. The purpose is to detect intrusion links from the opposite side of the network at any time, but since the last time I isolated the rift valley, I will never I haven't seen anything related to Abyss Xiling. I can't tell what happened a few days ago... It doesn't seem to be an external cause at all, I decided to go to the front line to see it myself."
"You 'make up your own mind'?" I somehow noticed the common-sounding phrase, "Are you sure this idea came from you and not influenced by outside influence?"
Xi Ling looked at me in confusion. Although she didn't speak, the expression on her face was clearly expressing puzzlement.
"I just remembered one of Sandora's abilities," I scratched my chin. "Her mind implies an unknowable mode, which can make the person under control feel that someone is controlling their heart, and make the other person think that he is acting under the premise of free will from beginning to end, er, nothing else , I just accidentally drifted here when I was thinking wildly."
"My thoughts cannot be controlled," Xi Ling became serious. He clapped his fingers and explained to me, "First of all, my thinking process is the result of the synchronous operation of the entire mental network, and this network has a special structure. It does not have a starting point and an ending point, and there is no 'high-level key' that can change other nodes. point'. Even your Majesty the Emperor's nodes are the same in my eyes. From the level of 'nodes', all Xiling apostles are equal, so any external force cannot affect my thinking process by hijacking key points; secondly, my The thinking process can be checked by yourself. I have studied the way of thinking of most of your lives in the real world, and found that only a few of you can achieve the 'second thinking' of your own thinking. You use one organ to think, but I can’t think about my own thinking process from the perspective of a bystander at the same time, just like people on earth who think with their brains, but they can’t create a second perspective in their brains to observe their thinking process. I don’t understand this—because I can It is easy to do this, I can run the monitoring program for myself, even let myself think about the same problem in two different processes, and if necessary, I can completely jump out of my perspective and observe as a bystander How does the entity 'Spirit' work... ”
"This sounds unbelievable," I looked at Xi Ling in amazement, "It's like grabbing my hair and pulling myself off the ground... Um, can you understand this analogy?"
"Of course, I know a lot of knowledge about the real world, and I understand why His Majesty was surprised," Xi Ling nodded seriously, "This really does not conform to the common sense of creatures in the real world, because you rely on a fixed organ or fixed' I'm running the thought process and I'm used to it all, and I'm symbiotic with the network, between the program and the spirit, and my special thought process is actually... self-checking programs. And these self-checking programs are not self-aware Components, they will only be generated when they need to run, so it is impossible to be hijacked in advance. To sum up, my thinking will not be controlled in an 'unknowable' situation, the spirit of Her Majesty Sandora Ability and Abyss Xiling's data intrusion may affect my thinking, but I will definitely find it, and I have enough spare power—if necessary—to call the police on everyone and freeze myself immediately.”
"Then rule out the possibility that Abyss Xiling can actively exert influence on you," I waved my hand, and quickly ended this topic that was about to become sophisticated, "Then in your opinion, why did you take the initiative at that time?" Have the idea of going to the front line to see it? At that time, Abyss Xiling hadn’t appeared yet, and Lin Xue hadn’t made any prophecy, so you followed to the front line is almost like a prophet—and in the end, Abyss Xiling did appear , it’s just that the two of you didn’t meet in the end.”
After I came back from the Abyss, I always felt that something was wrong. Whether it was the inexplicable split of the Fallen Apostles or the ambiguous "cooperative" attitude of Abyss Xiling, it made people feel uneasy. However, there is no evidence to prove that they are Planning a big conspiracy directly against the empire, and there is no evidence that the division within the abyss is an illusion, so we can only look for clues from other places. Now the only person on the side of the New Empire who can have a little connection with Abyss Xiling is this slightly immature soft girl version of Xiling, so I can only come to her to ask questions.
Xi Ling thought for a long time this time. She usually looks a little lacking in common sense, but she thinks far-reaching on these issues. After thinking for a while, she raised her head: "Your Majesty, I have always had a guess... But I am afraid it has little to do with our current topic, it is about the policy of Abyss Xiling."
I was immediately overjoyed: "You say you say it."
"If the life form of Abyss Xiling has not changed, then her and my thinking process should be almost the same," Xiling said slowly, "Although we all have free will, just like the thinking process of any intelligent creature Restricted by their worldview and cognition, network clusters like Abyss Xiling and I are also limited by the basic protocol and network architecture when thinking about problems. High-priority information will be processed first. Content prohibited by the basic protocol It will be automatically included in the monitoring area, and individuals harmful to the network must be excluded... Abyss Xiling may not be completely controlled by these regulations, but her thinking tendency should still be subtly affected by these things, which is related to whether she is infected or not. It has nothing to do, it is purely determined by the form of life. It seems that a human will never think in the way of a cat, no matter how much he understands cats, no matter how hard he tries to see the world from the perspective of a cat. It even makes him feel weird Schizophrenia mistook himself as a cat from the bottom of his bones, and he couldn't think like a cat fundamentally—his vision was different from a cat's, his sense of smell, taste, and touch were different from a cat's, and even his brain's operating efficiency was different. Unlike cats, this is not something that can be changed by external forces. The limitation of life form determines that a kind of intelligent creature can only think in its own world view... Oh. Mistress Qianqian seems to be a slight exception."
Me: "..." Qianqian's mind can challenge the truth of the universe, right
"I always think there is one exception," I couldn't help but talk a little more when I said this, "Little crow, you know, she's been crowing and crowing these past two days—she thinks she's a chicken."
"It's just a cognitive error," Xi Ling waved his hand. "The simplest point is that she can fly. So she can't understand what it feels like to have a bird with wings but can't fly. In addition, Your Majesty, the Crow God's mind is not yet mature, so it's best not to let her watch too many things that destroy the three views. Something, she learned how to crow after reading Zhou Papi's story..."
Me: "... how do you know so much?!"
"I am a network cluster consciousness," Xi Ling spread her hands, "I know everything that happened in the empire, and Mistress Qianqian has already posted the short video of Crow God getting up early and crowing on the Internet..."
I was stunned for a while, and then wiped my cold sweat: "Let's discuss the topic at the beginning... So, do you know what Abyss Xiling thinks?"
"It's not that I know how she thinks about the problem," Xi Ling said word by word, "but theoretically she will think about the same thing as me!"
I was immediately terrified by Xi Ling's words!
Fortunately, Xiling has the following text: "I mean, when exposed to the same information and facing the same situation, the thinking process of Abyss Xiling should be the same as mine. We are limited by various basic agreements and The network framework, so the flexibility when thinking about problems is in a subtle 'semi-programmed' state. I believe that Abyss Xiling is still a consciousness rooted in the network, so she can't get rid of the restrictions brought by this life form .For example, when the network encounters the threat of dead nodes, she and I will make the same decision in the same thinking cycle, and divide that part of dead nodes, and even the number of "buffer nodes" we split out for this will be the same. It may be exactly the same, this is the result of programmed calculation. On the surface we have free will, but for both of us, we can basically deduce what the other is thinking from our own situation: we are almost identical copies .”
I frowned: "But you decided to maintain order, but Abyss Xiling decided to turn the void upside down."
"This does not mean that there is a difference in the thinking process between the two of us," Xi Ling said surprisingly, "It's just that we are standing on two different positions. Facing the same collapse of the empire, my calculation result should be Immediately set about rebuilding the empire, Abyss Xiling's calculation result is also to rebuild the empire - but what she wants to rebuild is an abyssal empire. But if the camp problems such as the abyss are excluded, I think Abyss Xiling is facing the same situation as me The situation will make the same decision."
I have fully understood Xi Ling's meaning, and then I started to think quickly about how valuable this information is.
It is still uncertain how credible Xi Ling's speculation is, and she did not tell Tavel about these conjectures. It is also enough to show that even Xi Ling himself is not sure whether these conjectures are correct, but now we assume that they are all true.
Then the thing to do is very simple: put Xiling in the abyss area. What does she most want to do now
"Me?" Xiling was stunned when he heard my question, "Insufficient information makes it impossible to judge. I can only deduce that Abyss Xiling wants to rebuild the empire based on the premise of the collapse of the empire, but I don't know the real situation in the abyss area , so don’t know what her rebuilding plan is.”
I saw that this ultimate question was really not so easy to answer, so I immediately changed the question: "Then why do you think she contacted us a few days ago?"
This time, Xi Ling thought about it seriously. Then nodded firmly: "She hopes to cooperate with the empire, and may even let us participate in the great cause."
I slipped to the ground right then!
"Don't look at me, I just changed my position and thought about it." Xi Ling stretched out his hand and pulled me up. "If it was me, I would take the initiative to contact the empire under the same general environment and mention the great cause. Part of the truth is revealed, and the reason There is only one: the next step in the great cause requires the participation of the Empire."
I stared at Xiling in a daze, and found that the other party’s face was not meant to be a joke at all. Of course, Xiling usually didn’t seem to have the concept of "joking", so I could only believe that she was indeed deducing it based on her own situation: She can deduce the thinking conclusion of Abyss Xiling according to the situation. Of course, it is also possible to infer the opponent’s motives based on the final actions of Abyss Xiling to a certain extent. Although the accuracy of this reasoning is still doubtful, it is at least more reliable than my random guess.
Abyss Xiling suddenly appeared, and she also took the initiative to disclose part of the situation of "Daye" to us, and thinking about the inexplicable words she said before she left... Could it be that she really intends to bring the new empire into "Daye"
Is she crazy or is she crazy or is she crazy
"Who knows." Xi Ling sat on the edge of the bed and swayed back and forth, "The way of thinking of network consciousness and real creatures is inherently different. We will unconsciously ignore emotional factors and all objective influences from the real world. As far as we are concerned, 'logic demand' is the only driving force. Driven by logic, everything is reasonable. After all, we will not encounter any obstacles and interferences on the Internet as in the real world. Nodes have no emotions, and network segments There is no alignment, as long as there is logic and underlying agreement, anything works."
I nodded and put this matter aside for the time being, and then I was about to say something when I heard a bluffing voice in my mind: "Boss, boss! ~ Someone is looking for you!"
"Lilina?" I was a little surprised, "Who's here?"
"A few Consumers' Associations have come from the God Realm," Lilina replied cheerfully, "Boss, where are you?"
I didn't get over the shock brought by the word "Consumer Association" for a while, so I subconsciously told Lilina my location, and then I saw a green light curtain flashing in front of me, and Lilina directly teleported to myself. in front of it.
"Ah, boss, so you are here. I searched for you..." Lilina came up and jumped on my lap. Men, widows and women live together in the same room, and the boss of a large group and his beautiful subordinates have a story that has to be told in the staff dormitory... Oh boss, please forgive me..."
I lifted Lilina's belt and shook her in front of me, and when the other party was almost trembling into an afterimage, I knocked her on the head lightly, and then I took this little 1.09 meter Caught in the armpit, he turned his head and said goodbye to Xiling: "Then I will go to see the situation first, don't forget what we talked about today, discuss with Tavel how to use these between you and Abyss Xiling connect."
Saying goodbye to Xiling, I took Lilina and teleported directly to the city where the World Tree is located: the temple area.
Sandora, Harlan, and the protoss quintet are already waiting here. Apart from their on-site greeting, there is no welcome ceremony in the temple square: anyway, the God Realm and the capital of the empire have been directly connected, and now these small Large-scale personnel circulation no longer needs to be so fanfare.
I walked over there quickly, and soon saw the appearance of the so-called "God Realm Consumers Association", and as expected - I didn't know him.
They were a man and a woman, both of whom looked like dark protoss. Needless to say about their appearance, anyway, there were basically no crooked people from the gods (except for the non-mainstream protoss). They were wearing a black windbreaker and The God Realm clothing between the robes looks like some kind of uniform, and the male Protoss is carrying a large box in his hand: Is this the disassembly tool for the World Tree? It seems that it doesn't match the tree several kilometers high...
Several people at the scene had already seen me, and Sandora waved happily to my side, while the two protoss experts (should they be experts?) greeted me with smiles on their faces. Before I could speak, the tall man of the dark protoss bowed slightly and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, His Majesty the Emperor of Xiling, God the Father personally entrusted us to take care of you."
I quickly waved my hand: "Don't be too polite, don't be too polite, there are not so many rules in this place—are you repairing the World Tree for Dingdang?"
"Basically, we are volunteers who maintain those management systems that don't have brand protection." The female dark protoss smiled, decently and elegantly—the **** star over there who was smirking while eating melon seeds came over and learned a little bit!
At this time, the male dark protoss looked curiously at something in my armpit, hesitating slightly: "... Is this a custom here? Or is this your briefcase?"
I quickly put Lilina on the ground, and the little girl jumped up as soon as she landed: "You're the only briefcase! Your whole family has briefcases!"
The Pope, who is so tough that he dares to yell at the true gods of other departments, is probably the only one in the world. (To be continued.
