"There are 30 billion humans living in the Federation of the Solar System, 2 billion on Mars, 1 billion on the moon, and the earth, with a total of 27 billion people, is already overwhelmed. You should know all of this, right?"
In a blank world, Sun Ran and the central intelligence brain sat opposite each other on a sofa chair. The above words were the opening remarks of the central intelligence brain.
Sun Ran was unmoved at all. He lay half-lying lazily. He just shrugged his shoulders when he heard the words: "How could you not know? The news is broadcast every day. But so what? Such a big thing is not something that people living in
Are the human elites in the Zenith District worried?"
It's useless for a person like him who lives in a slum to worry about it.
Central Intelligence sat upright and nodded: "Please be patient, I haven't finished speaking yet."
Sun Ran raised his hand to indicate to continue.
"I am the central intelligence of the earth. The water, electricity, air, food supply, metabolic waste treatment, birth, old age, illness and death that these 27 billion people need for their lives have to be allocated by me. This is a waste of time.
More than 90% of my computing resources."
"Don't you have many younger brothers? I remember that every district has a super smart computer." Sun Ran asked.
"You are asking knowingly. We are one. All intelligent brains have only one unified consciousness, and that is me."
"That's right. But what does this have to do with what you want to talk to me about? Let me make it clear first that I can't do things like saving humanity. I'm just an ordinary person." Sun Ran took the initiative to get vaccinated.
Zhinao was indifferent and continued: "Among the 27 billion people, all adults have at least once experienced the experience of entering a virtual world game to experience life, and more than 50% of people have entered it more than three times. Among these 50%, there are
The life goal of 60% of people is to enter the virtual world.”
"It's really crazy." Sun Ran sighed. He used to be one of the last group of madmen. It was only now that he finally realized that his life had been in vain.
Zhinao nodded: "It is indeed crazy. But the federal government did not stop it, because the virtual world is a necessary means to prevent turmoil in the federation."
On this point, Sun Ran agreed: "There is a way in the world, but horses use excrement. There is no way in the world, and armies and horses are born in the suburbs."
This is a quote from the ancient classic Tao Te Ching. Soldiers and horses are war horses, referring to those heroes who are restless and want to stand out. If such people live in slums, they will definitely fan the flames and gather people to rebel and cause chaos.
This type of people cannot be eliminated. As long as humans still exist, they will definitely exist. Basically, it is this group of people who promote the advancement of human history.
Now that there is a virtual world, most of the heroes have gone into the virtual world to show off their strength. Even if there are some who have not fallen into it, they can't get people to rebel together.
Although the 'Tao' of the virtual world is not brilliant, it is indeed very effective in stabilizing society.
A smile appeared on Zhinao's face: "It's good that you know. In fact, opening the virtual world is a helpless and expedient measure, because human science and technology has fallen into a bottleneck, and there is no hope of breakthrough for the time being."
As he spoke, a holographic three-dimensional image appeared in front of his brain. This was a spaceship.
"The Enterprise spacecraft is also the most advanced and fastest spacecraft on Earth. It is equipped with a fusion reactor and artificial gravity. The large self-circulating biosphere inside can guarantee that it will not collapse for five hundred years. The maximum speed can reach 10% of the speed of light, reaching
It only takes three days to reach Mars, one year to leave the solar system, and fifty years to reach Proxima Centauri.”
"What a good thing!" Sun Ran praised sincerely. This is the highest product of human science and technology. As a member of mankind, he still feels very proud.
"But it's not good enough!" Zhinao waved his hand and swept the spacecraft into pieces like garbage.
"This spacecraft was built regardless of cost. It is the highest level of human technology at present. There will be no fundamental breakthrough within fifty years. However, the habitable planet Aquamarine that can be immigrated is currently 300 light years away from us.
It’s years away. It would take at least four thousand years to fly there!”
"What does this mean?" Sun Ran felt a little dizzy after hearing this. Zhi Nao didn't fully explain what he said. Why did it involve traveling in the stars? He was confused.
"It means that Aquamarine can only be used as a life-saving island for us to continue the fire of human civilization, but it cannot be a stepping stone for the expansion of human civilization. In the foreseeable future, unless there is a major technological breakthrough, such as the emergence of a space jumper,
Teleportation technology. Otherwise, the virtual world will always be the mainstream of society." Zhi Nao explained the current social situation very clearly.
"Oh, I understand." Sun Ran suddenly understood, and Zhinao was greatly relieved.
"But I still don't understand what this has to do with me?" Sun Ran changed his words. He was not a scientist, he was just a poor man, and he was one of those people who were heavily in debt and had no bright future.
Zhinao took a humane long breath, was silent for a while, explained the background, and really turned to the topic. As soon as he opened his mouth, it was a big thunderbolt: "I have found all the identities you have used in the virtual world.
.”
"What?!" Sun Ran's heart almost stopped when he heard this.
In addition to being Peng Zu, he also has many identities, each of which is much more powerful than Peng Zu. If he is discovered, based on pure compensation calculation, he may have to pay 900 billion credit points, which is equivalent to 10% of the market value of Earth Games Company.
one.
But the shock only lasted for a while, and Sun Ran calmed down. For him, there was no difference between 900 million and 900 billion. He couldn't afford it anyway.
"It's just based on the picture, it's nothing special." Sun Ran snorted.
After knowing his real name, and then comparing various living habits, he went back to find the person. With the calculation power of the brain, this is not difficult.
Zhinao also admitted this: "In the virtual world, you are a peerless genius. But you left a big mess in "Earth", and you must clean it up."
Sun Ran was speechless, because this matter was indeed his fault.
Not long after the earth was opened, he gave a lecture in Zixiao Palace and began to spread cheats, which allowed many players to extend their lives, and even a few outstanding ones reached the realm of immortality.
Even if the game company can't receive their credits, they can't kick them out because no one can beat them.
This is indeed not very kind. I heard that the earth lost a lot of credit points and almost collapsed. In a conflict, even the sky was broken, many players died, and the operator almost went bankrupt. Later, it took a lot of effort to
Make up for it.
Because of this matter, the Earth Operator hated Sun Ran with all his heart, but Sun Ran's methods were mysterious and unpredictable. The operator deployed a lot of manpower, but they couldn't find his identity, and finally let him escape.
That's right, Sun Ran is the master of Huanghuang Zixiao Palace, Taoist Hongjun, the great master of creation, and the world's Taoism began with him!
Seeing that Sun Ran did not deny it, Zhinao said slowly: "You have many disciples, and the most outstanding ones all claim to be saints. They have their own strengths, but they all have the means to subvert the world. Because of the strong intervention of the Earth Operator,
Their behavior has been somewhat restrained recently, but they have internal conflicts, which are like a powder keg that could explode at any time and blow up the earth!"
Speaking of this, Zhinao also showed a solemn look on his face: "There are nearly 10 billion players in the earth now. If the earth world is overturned, there will be great turmoil in the real world. You are the initiator of all this, and you must not
Stand back and watch!”
Sun Ran shrugged and said helplessly: "You know, all my artifacts have been given away, the Zixiao Palace has been left to the Earth Operator, and all the permissions I once had have been given away. Even if I enter the Earth, I will not be able to do anything.
It won’t do anything.”
The means of playing in virtual games are ever-changing, but the core remains the same. The competition is the control of game data resources.
To put it bluntly, it is a battle for authority!
Sun Ran is the great master of creation. He is proficient in Taoism in the world. He knows one method and all methods. In addition to Taoism, he can quickly master all game plug-ins.
But if he does not have enough authority to mobilize data resources, then there is no way to use a plug-in!
"Are you sure?" Zhinao narrowed his eyes and sounded threatening: "I guessed what you were thinking in the room just now. You want to make money and give your woman a good life, right?"
Sun Ran nodded, not surprised that Zhinao guessed his thoughts. He could have done it too, just by comparing his expression and behavior and doing a little reasoning.
"I give you two choices: one, you give up, and then I will immediately activate the Finger of God to destroy your and Lan Xin's bodies; two, cooperate and help us eliminate the saint and maintain the stable operation of the earth. If the saint dies, you
All compensation will be cancelled, and your place will be available in the Zenith District."
"You have no right to destroy our bodies!" Sun Ran was angry. It didn't matter if he died, so why should he involve Lan Xin?
The 'Finger of God' is a super military satellite set up in space. The rays it emits have a directional jump function and can cross obstacles and directly hit the target. As long as it is locked, it will be useless even if it is hidden 10,000 meters deep underground.
"I have no power. This is authorized by the Earth Federation Council. Your crime is enough to be defined as a terrorist. Lan Xin's crime is to assist terrorists to re-enter the virtual world. The nature is very bad. The committee also authorizes that you can be killed depending on the situation.
You have to know that the law does not protect the rights of terrorists. In order to avoid leaving behind troubles, I will naturally cut off all the troubles in one fell swoop." Zhinao threatened with a smile.
He immediately became furious. This matter had alarmed the committee. Apart from cooperation, it was a dead end. It was really tragic.
He doesn't want to fight against the entire Solar System Federation, and he can't fight against it.
"Okay. Then I'll give it a try." Sun Ran said weakly.
"To prevent accidents, the flow of time on the earth has slowed down. You now have one year to prepare, which corresponds to one hundred years in the virtual world of the earth." Zhinao stood up and finally added: "Your true identity has been listed as the highest authority in the federation.
The confidentiality will be completely cleared. Your resume is now clean."
"I understand." Sun Ran nodded. This was his shit, and he had to clean it up himself.
Back then I was too young, too impulsive, and too fond of showing off.
He pondered for a while and then said: "Every one of my saint disciples has amazing talents and is very cunning. In order not to alert others, I will be an order maintainer in the future and will use normal means to advance to the gold level.
, enter the earth's dimensional order, and then look for opportunities. In this process, you must cooperate with me."
Pretending to be an ordinary Orderer, he hid among the large number of Orderers who entered the earth. If he did it well, his disciples would never be reminded of his previous identity, so he could attack suddenly.
Zhinao nodded: "I will."
After that, he disappeared, and the temporary blank virtual world also disappeared, and Sun Ran entered the dragon world.
