Perhaps because they had just experienced the attack, the people in the team were unable to rest peacefully and were in a tense state. The hunters responsible for the investigation patrolled a longer distance this time, and the early warning systems of the transport vehicles were all turned on, without any savings.
The meaning of electricity. However, because the next environment was more dangerous, the guard captain extended the rest time to let everyone adjust their state.
Compared with other people who faced a formidable enemy, Xiao Wu felt relaxed and comfortable here. The attack was just a novel and interesting experience for her, and she even wanted to do it a few more times.
Raeder, who was forced to be with her, had a completely different feeling. The scene of the attack a few hours ago was still vivid in her mind, and like everyone else, she did not dare to relax at all, for fear of another shell whizzing down. No,
She was more nervous than others because of her pampering, and she was already a little nervous. The sound of technicians knocking on the twisted stairs of the transport truck startled her.
She once thought that she had no fear of death when her consciousness was uploaded, but after actually facing the danger herself, she realized how absurd this idea was.
"that whoever……"
"Who is that? Call me Miss Dance!"
"Miss Wu, won't those scavengers come after you? We won't be bombed again, right?"
"Theoretically no, those scavengers can't run away like us. Even if they catch up, they can't chase them with artillery, and I don't think they have the ability to mount a large-caliber howitzer on a vehicle. That thing can fire a single shot.
The recoil is not something a pile of assembled scraps can withstand."
Xiao Wu put a reclining chair in the carriage and answered leisurely while eating snacks she took out from nowhere.
"Why in theory? In practice?"
Raeder didn't get the answer she wanted, so she asked worriedly.
"Because we are not sure~ If their artillery is a regular self-propelled artillery preserved from the previous era, it is very likely that they will catch up and continue to bombard us. The most cumbersome weapons of that era can travel hundreds of kilometers on their own and catch up with us.
It's very easy. Don't be fooled by the way these transport vehicles run. Even if they go at full speed, they can only reach a speed of 50 to 60 kilometers per hour, and they can only maintain it for a short time. This kind of Big Mac can also
It is used in contemporary environments with poor reconnaissance and strike capabilities. In the past, it was a low-speed moving target."
"Then what should we do! Aren't we doomed!"
"Oh, don't worry, I'm just assuming the worst. In the final analysis, those guys are just a bunch of rabble. Even if they have good weapons, they can't make full use of them. You have to know that the weapons of the previous era all required human push-button switches.
To operate, the more powerful the weapon, the more complicated it is. How can it be as simple as it is now~ If they were really good at playing it, we would have been blown up to the sky~!"
Xiao Wu's tone was full of joy, as if she was talking about something that she didn't want to have anything to do with.
"That's good...are you really not afraid at all?"
Raeder felt a little relieved, but she didn't understand why Xiao Wu was so calm.
"What's there to be afraid of? We both have no brains, so we shouldn't be afraid~"
"But... if I can't upload my consciousness instantly, dying and losing my memory will still mean that I am really dead now~ It's quite scary to think about it..."
"Really? I thought a fully ascended person like you wouldn't care about this~"
"How is that possible! I have been thinking about this issue for a long time. Is it considered dead if a person like me who uploads a backup of his consciousness is dead?"
"Then have you come to a conclusion?"
"We have come to a very strange conclusion. For other people, there is no difference between my backup that retains the memory completely and the dead me. But for the dead me, the dissipation of consciousness makes no difference.
The doubt proves that I am dead, and the backup is just another version of myself that is exactly the same as me. If the backup is enabled when I am still alive, how can I judge which one is me? If my backup and I have
Different memories, which one is my memory?"
"Do you have insurance?"
"Insurance? Of course there is~"
"Then if you activate your backup while you are alive and then kill her, will you be able to cheat the insurance?"
"Ah? Why would you think of such a crooked idea?"
"Because your backup is not you to you~ but to the insurance company, it is you, so wouldn't it be cost-effective to kill a copy of yourself in exchange for huge compensation? Your insurance limit should be very high, right?"
"No! Even if the backup is another independent individual to me, I can't do it to myself! What's more, I'm not short of money, so why do I do such troublesome things!"
"Hi~ I just assumed a situation to discuss the problem, and I didn't really ask you to do it. In fact, I still have some experience in judging the question of 'who am I?'
"Really? So you have already solved the logical and ethical issues in this area?"
"To be precise, there were no such problems from the beginning."
"ah?"
"This kind of technology is a new concept for everyone, and it is impossible to find applicable parts from the existing theories and rules. The best way is to create one from scratch. Rather than using old thinking to make it impossible,
Rather than thinking about the answer, it is better to use creative thinking to rationalize it.”
"Then how did you rationalize it?"
"It's very simple~ Just don't treat yourself as an outsider?"
"What's the meaning?"
"It means recognizing that another self is an independent individual, but has the same rights and obligations as oneself."
"Can this be done? If two people have done different things and have different memories, how can we ensure that their minds will not be alienated?"
"Thought synchronization~or thought sharing or something like that. Anyway, just make sure that the memories and thoughts of both of you are consistent."
"Is this how you do it? Is it feasible?"
"Anyway, it's possible on our side, but you don't know it~"
"Then if one of them dies, is it considered dead or not?"
"It doesn't matter~ If you care, just mourn. If you don't care, don't care~"
"Then what if...you kill yourself?"
"It counts as suicide. If you kill, it means the suicide is successful. If it doesn't succeed, it means the suicide attempt."
"Are all the people there so casual?"
"That's right~ This kind of thing is something that you can care about or not, so why do you have to worry about it? As long as it doesn't affect the normal operation of society, it will be fine."
"How could it not have an impact? Then if I kill your clone, should I convict you of murder, or should you be designated as a victim? Do you not care about this kind of problem?"
"That's right, we really don't care about such things. Because everyone is unkillable, this kind of problem does not exist for us, and no one cares. To be honest, you have completely achieved mechanical ascension.
Human beings are completely different from natural humans in every sense, and human standards can no longer be used to make judgments. They are completely inapplicable."
"Is this like this..."
"So~ technology has developed but culture has not kept up, which will lead to all kinds of troubles. And a society like yours with highly advanced technology but overall shortcomings is even more troublesome. Do you really think the world
Is it like this because countries can only fight with each other? I tell you, absolutely not, although that is indeed an important inducement."
"After talking for a long time, I still haven't figured out whether my backup counts as me, and whether my death counts as death. Alas..."
Raeder raised her head and saw a stream of light passing through the night sky.
"Ah, it's a shooting star! Make a wish quickly!"
Her depression was instantly washed away by the surprise, and she clasped her hands in a very girlish way and began to make a wish, which looked very disharmonious in her current appearance.
"Why do you want to wish on a shooting star? Do you hope that your wish will be as fleeting as a shooting star? Or do you hope that your wish will burn up after you realize it? I really don't understand what you are thinking."
Xiao Wu changed the position of her legs, mercilessly ruining Raeder's interest.
"Miss Wu, are you a girl? I really doubt you are an old woman who doesn't understand emotions!"
The disappointed Raeder complained gloomily.
"Of course I am a girl, much more than a thirty-eight-year-old aunt like you~"
"Don't let age matter! I'm no longer human!"
"Huh? You have a new idea so soon? Not bad, do you want to eat it? I made it myself~"
Raeder handed over a piece of cake. It was really made by herself when she was in the Dream City. Her family was a pastry shop.
"Are you humiliating me? I can't eat!"
"Really, that's really pitiful~ Oh, this sentence is humiliating, the previous sentence is a good intention~"
