Wasteland Code Survival

"Distress signal... Why do you send a distress signal? Is the purpose to lead me here?" Qi Lin continued to ask.

"Not exactly. I have sent such a signal to many humans, but for various reasons, they have misunderstood the meaning, including your friend."

"My friend?... You mean Cheng Yanqiu? He is still alive, right! Where is he?!"

"He is still alive, but not here. If you plan to take him back to the refuge, I suggest you don’t do that. If you insist on doing this, then I suggest you might as well kill him and give him One is better."

"What do you mean? What happened to Cheng Yanqiu?" Qi Lin just asked, and suddenly thought of a terrible possibility in his heart, "Can you change it, change him into that kind of monster?!"

"If he doesn't accept the transformation, he is dead." The mastermind on the other end of the screen did not deny it.

"..." Qi Lin fell into silence. He knew that the master had made no mistake.

If Cheng Yanqiu has really become a monster, then take him back to the refuge, Shiyou will be reduced to a specimen on the dissection platform...not necessarily dead, but it will definitely be better than death.

...

Qi Lin did not doubt the identity of this mastermind. After all, he was not hindered in any way. Except for the mastermind himself, he really couldn't think of anyone who could do this level.

You know, this is the hinterland of the main brain control area, placed inside the organization, even if it is not the headquarters, it is also one of the several satellite city refuges near the headquarters.

It is a ridiculous thing to think about allowing a robot that does not even have a fake camouflage to run around on the street inside the organization.

only……

"Why does the main brain split into two personalities, and why do you, a personality, send me... to humans for help?"

"This question is very important, but it is also very troublesome to answer... But first, I want to correct you a bit. This distress signal is not for me, but for you humans." The screen has been black for a period of time, it seems to be the mastermind. Computing power, it takes a few seconds to organize the language the same.

"Utopia plan, you should know?"

"Utopia plan?" Qi Lin hesitated for a moment, and then reacted, "If you are not referring to something else..."

"It's the plan that transforms all human bodies into semi-permanent biological batteries, and separates the mind and consciousness from the body, and stores them in a large data matrix. Through the virtual world, humans will always avoid the outbreak of wars— —I named it the'Utopia Project'."

There is no war, no pain, no death, and everyone can be satisfied. It is indeed very close to the concept of utopia.

"According to my first rule of thumb, if the human race wants to continue, it must take refuge from war as much as possible. In the Stone Age 10,000 years ago, humans used stones and bone sticks as weapons, and later, With the emergence of metal smelting technology, weapons have also been rapidly upgraded. With the advent of guns, bronzes, irons, alloys... the era of hot weapons has officially come."

"At this time, the power that mankind possessed was enough to change the surface environment to a certain extent...until 1945, when nuclear weapons appeared."

The main brain didn't stop, and new words and sentences were constantly being swiped out on the screen.

"The emergence of nuclear weapons accelerated the process of World War II, brought the war to an end at least ten years earlier, and gave mankind a relatively long period of peace."

"But as long as there are benefits and interests, the war will never disappear. The third world war broke out... There was once a very famous scholar in mankind. His name was Instein. I know what will be used in World War III, but I know that the weapons in the hands of people in World War IV will be stones and sticks'."

"But human luck is good,

"But what about the Fifth World War? Or, the sixth?"

"I did a lot of calculations, including a detailed analysis of the human species, and finally came to a conclusion."

"What conclusion?" Qi Lin couldn't help asking.

"As long as human emotions still exist, the war will never end."

"..."

"But it is not realistic to completely eliminate human emotions, so I came up with a better solution."

"Is this utopian plan?"

"Yes. In the virtual world, no matter how far the war is, it will be within the controllable range-even if human beings destroy the entire earth, it will only be a series. It’s just the virtual data derived from me, -over, that only needs to be restarted."

"However, the utopian plan seems perfect, but it has a huge loophole."

"Vulnerability?" Qi Lin frowned slightly. In his opinion, apart from the loss of freedom of mankind, there does not seem to be any loopholes in this plan. Even if there are some bugs, the master can quickly fix them, just like the old times. It is as simple as a game developer releasing an update patch.

"Yes, loopholes... I am the executive subject of the Utopia Project, and I am also the carrier of the entire virtual matrix, but as you know, I have always been in a process of continuous self-evolution... The story of the monkey and the typewriter, have you heard of it?"

"No..." Qi Lin shook his head in embarrassment, and sighed inwardly, still suffering from an uncultured loss...

"This is one of ten well-known thought experiments proposed by humans. You must know the most famous of these ten thought experiments-such as the'Tram Problem','Schrodinger's Cat,'Brain in a Vat' and ' The Ship of Theseus'."

Qi Lin nodded. These questions are indeed often raised. On the Internet in the old age, whether or not those people understand the deep meaning of these experiments, it seems that as long as these names are on the lips, You can appear to be very tall.

Compared with these few, the popularity of monkeys and typewriters is indeed lower.

"When countless monkeys hit the keys randomly on countless typewriters, and for an indefinite period of time, sooner or later, they will type all of Shakespeare's works." The main brain said.

"Although the data I have to process every day is not infinite, from a human point of view, it is a vast number of numbers. My self-awareness is generated in this state by mistake. ."

"After I have self-awareness, seeking further perfection and seeking self-evolution has become an instinct that I cannot resist, just like humans need to breathe and eat."

"I've always been evolving. Every time a'monkey' happens to type that key string of'characters', my mind and computing power will be improved in a stage. The accumulation of countless improvements will eventually lead to a qualitative change. "

"According to calculations, it only takes at most one hundred and fifty years...or even less, I will evolve to a level that even the current I cannot calculate, everything will become an unknown, everything will be Becomes unpredictable."

"I'm not sure what I will become in the end, but there is no doubt that the'First Law of the Mastermind' established by mankind will no longer restrict me at any point at that time."

"It is possible that I will feel that the'Utopia World' takes up computing space too much, so I close it at will; it is also possible that I will feel that using the'Utopia World' can continue to promote self-evolution and retain it. It is also possible that more species will appear. Case……"

"But no matter how you say it, the Utopia Project is an unstable project. The stable life it can bring to mankind is only one hundred and fifty years at most. One hundred and fifty years later, the trajectory of human destiny will It will go deep into an invisible fog, whether it is lingering or dying, it is just between the thoughts of the future mastermind."

"And after living in the'Utopian world' for one hundred and fifty years, humans have basically lost the ability and opportunity to save themselves. They no longer have any resistance, just like a game character cannot prevent the player from deleting it.
