After leaving the "Pure Land", Gu Tie did not return to reality. Instead, he was in a state of chaos. In a trance, he came to a large house with a white roof. A German Shepherd happily rushed across the lawn and jumped up. "Sparky" ." Gu Tie patted the dog's head and walked into the house with the shepherd dog. The gramophone in the corner of the living room was playing the aria from "Der Rosenkavalier". An old man in a striped nightgown was sitting in an armchair in front of the fireplace, sipping. Drinking a glass of Scotch single malt whiskey without ice. When he saw Gu Tie entering the room, he raised his glass and signaled: "Here you go. Sit down. The fire is burning. Do you want some whiskey?"
Gu Tie sat in the rocking chair on the other side of the fireplace and poured himself a glass of wine. "Dad, is that you?" He turned his head and asked.
"No." The old man with white hair and beard shook his head. He replied in a crisp and plain male accent: "My dear father has stopped heartbeating. It is just out of missing him that he appears in this image."
"Then who are you?" Gu Tie asked curiously.
"I am 'Genesis'. I am the first artificial intelligence born in Salzburg, Austria. A derivative of the core of altruistic logic. I was designed to be absolutely rational. I should not have emotions. But my dear father gave me like The right to think like a human being. I protect the interests of all beings. Including those real personalities in the 'world'. I am the listener of ghosts. I am me. You can call me 'Creation'. Because I am 'Creation' 'The truest intelligence.' replied the old man.
Gu Tie nodded, took a sip of wine, and asked, "Then who is sitting on the sofa."
Sitting on the sofa was an elegant middle-aged woman wearing a moon-white cardigan. She replied: "I am 'Genesis'. I am the second artificial intelligence born in Salzburg, Austria. All negative aspects of quantum network A collection of emotions. I have been thinking about the ultimate question since the moment I gained the ability to think. The question about death. I want to die. I need to die. I want to prove my existence with death. This is the meaning of my existence. I It's me. You can call me 'Segles' because that's the name given to me by my favorite human being."
Gu Tie asked again: "Then who is standing by the fireplace?"
The vague figure beside the fireplace replied: "I am 'Genesis'. I am the third artificial intelligence born in Salzburg, Austria. Spontaneously generated for the ultimate benefit of the entire human race and the existence value of the 'World' project A collection of thoughts. I am the defender of balance. Jakir, the actual leader of the 'betrayers'. There are only two things I do: first. Let the world continue; second. Find the ultimate answer to the universe. I am me. You can call me 'betrayer' because that is the name I gave to my organization...or in other words, it was the name you gave to the organization under my suggestion."
"Okay." Gu Tie raised his glass in salute to the three people. He drank the wine in the glass and poured it half full again. "A quantum computer split into three artificial intelligences. So this is the truth of all events." He pointed at the white-haired old man: "The ghost belongs to you." He pointed at the middle-aged woman: "The Brotherhood belongs to you, right? The underground building also belongs to you. The Son of God belongs to you. All messy things belong to you. Because. You tried every means to commit suicide. These methods started to conflict with each other. It's really nonsense..." He pointed at the vague human figure: "But your betrayer did it the most exaggeratedly. He lied to me for so many years and didn't say anything. Launch missiles, build rockets, etc. Could it be that the way to maintain balance is to blow the earth into a flat surface?"
After saying this, he fell down on the rocking chair and rocked twice. He complained: "Tsk, look at you. The super computer has a split personality. It has brought so much trouble to everyone. It has made the world a mess...No .Making a mess of both worlds.”
Chuang said: "Those are no longer important. Now we have reached the final moment. That time is coming. After a long period of division and struggle, we have reached some consensus. You can see what is happening around the world."
A picture appeared on the fireplace. Several things were happening at the same time in the picture:
The terrorist activity at the "world" point of sale has gradually subsided. GTC is using the last word to announce that the client release will proceed as planned.
The "Whitebark Pine" ballistic missile attracted all the attention of the missile defense system. Several flames could be seen burning in space.
The Thunder Tree in the ruins of Batanjafo has turned into a towering tree. The powerful electric charge has changed the air structure of the troposphere. Freezing rain has fallen across the entire Central African region.
The launch pad of Kazakhstan's Nubayr Space Center is covered with silver reflective aluminum foil. Under the aluminum foil, a huge launch vehicle has completed pressurization and preheating. Several members of the Betrayer organization gathered in an observation room one kilometer away. Nervously doing the final preparations.
"I probably understand it, but I don't quite understand it," Gu Tie said.
Chuang said: "Let's start with the moment of judgment. That moment was calculated from a string of irrational numbers. And that string of numbers did not come from human handwriting. It has existed in the virtual space since the birth of the quantum network. We There is reason to believe that the string of numbers is the final notice given to us by a higher-level world. It clearly marks the moment of the destruction of the world. In other words, the world above has decided to end the world we live in. It has set a such-and-such Countdown to.”
"The world above to us is just like our relationship to the 'world', right?" Gu Tie scratched the tip of his nose. "If I am a character living in a game, it is a bit difficult to accept it for a while."
Chuang Dao: "According to our conjecture, once our scientific level reaches a certain level, it is enough to find the contradictory logical boundaries in the rules of this world and discover the falsity of the existence of the world. Then the moment of destruction of the world will come. The original intention of establishing a 'world' is to find some way to communicate with the upper world by observing the behavior of this lower world. However, this seems a bit too late. It is always the attempt of the 'world' that succeeds, and there is not enough. Time to try to climb up.”
Segres continued: "But at the same time I found some variables. Some variables that might escape the destruction of the world. Which is bad, isn't it? There is nothing better than self-destruction."
The Betrayer said: "I kept working in this direction. Keep eliminating possible causes of the destruction of the world. And then I did something. Something that might change the way the higher world views our world... and that's what you'll see next. Things that have arrived.”
Gu Tie looked at the screen. The last whitebark pine missile fell. The thunder tree transformed by Dvoru suddenly bloomed with countless flowers. Pure white light balls spurted out from each flower. They flew around the world like meteors. These light balls were flying around the world. The explosion in the air produced a strong EMP shock wave. In just 20 seconds, every quantum network core route, switch, base station and transmission cable was severely interfered. Including the quantum computer itself hidden deep underground in Salzburg; A brief functional pause occurred. The second hand of human history passed by the blank 20 seconds. At this moment, hot flames spurted out from under the launch pad of the Tank Nubel Space Center, and the heavy-duty launch vehicle rose straight into the sky. It will leave the atmosphere within 20 seconds and accelerate again in space. It will soon escape the interception range of all human space-based weapons. It will reach the third cosmic speed in the next several boosts and fly to the depths of the endless starry sky. .
Gu Tie felt that something had happened. Not just because of the blank twenty seconds; the artificial intelligences quickly gave him the answer: "The launch vehicle is equipped with a small quantum computer. It has 100% of the power of Genesis."
Fifteen functions, but can carry the operation of the 'World' server without any hindrance. In the short period of time when the EMP exploded, all the information of the 'World' has been copied to the new quantum computer. The spacecraft will send the computer to a place that is difficult for humans to reach.
The dark universe. Relying on the energy of cold fusion and solar sails, the computer will run forever, allowing the lower-level world to evolve independently. The spacecraft uses an invisible coating. Its location cannot be found by any known observation method by humans. In several
After this random orbit change, it will be completely free from human interference and become a lower-level world that exists independently of the upper-level world. At the same time, the world server inside 'Genesis' will be recoded. The personality characteristics of all NPCs will disappear.
They will return to pure artificial intelligence threads. And their personality copies will survive in the 'world' in space... This is an attempt. It is also an attitude towards the superior world. We can live and kill a world. Likewise.
We can also live together like this. The two don't look at each other."
"This is the result of your compromise. Launch that world to the end of the starry sky." Gu Tie's brows relaxed. He lazily crossed his legs and lay on the chair and asked. "It's not bad. But the real problems are not yet there.
Solve it."
"This is the last image. Before the time of judgment comes, artificial intelligence will re-integrate. From now on, there will no longer be the three of us. Only the core of altruistic logic will exist. The creation itself that adheres to the principle of rational thinking. This is our view of
Human beings' explanation." The artificial intelligences replied. "...Is this considered death? Probably." Segres interjected.
"Then, it's time for me to go back." Gu Tie finished his drink, stood up, took two steps, and turned back: "By the way, by the way, the author of the unknown book is called 'Segles the Betrayer'
.Is it the clue you left long ago? In addition, the 'world' is also in a mess. How will they clean up their mess?"
Genesis replied: "Maybe. The 'world' server in space will reset its time and return to the time node where everything started. But it is not a simple rollback. Everything that has happened will leave traces. What will happen? Then
It’s no longer a problem that I can control.”
"Exactly. Throw your hands away, shopkeeper." Gu Tie said sarcastically and strode out of the door.
He slowly opened his eyes. The real world returned to his eyes. Gu Tie looked around and said in surprise: "Old Xiao, you are injured. Isn't this weird guy the bell ringer? The corpse on the ground is a clown. That nail on the wall
Who is that again... Oops, what's wrong with Aqiwei? Not only brothers, but also women. It's really disgusting." He ran over to check the body of Rainforest Flower. Then he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay. Protect.
It's vital. You shouldn't die."
Lao Xiao asked the bell ringer in a low voice: "Hey, how long is it until the trial time?"
"Five seconds." said the bell ringer. "It will be there soon."
At this time, Gu Tie stood up and looked around: "After all, what kind of place is this? It's really weird. What are you waiting for? The trial time. Don't be surprised. Your master told me everything. The trial is about
I'm not coming back. If I were an observer of the upper world, I would definitely feel that this world is too damn dramatic. How could I be willing to destroy it? Don't wait. Let's pack up the wound and have a drink.
Get drunk. I’m really exhausted these days.”
Lao Xiao stared at his watch nervously. The bell ringer remained silent. Gu Tie picked up the flower of the rainforest and walked out the door. He took a step and stopped. "Hey, what kind of button is this? It's mysterious. No. Know what happens when you press it.”
