"Raeder, what technologies does your family have a monopoly on?"
"Ah? It's robotics, artificial intelligence and other things that everyone needs. In these aspects, we are at least two generations ahead of other consortiums. I didn't know why my father was so powerful before, but now I know why. Just like me
This machine is something that no other consortium can produce.”
"Besides these technologies, are there any other technologies?"
"The rest are just some... messy things. This is the core technology. After all, the consortium is so big and its business scope is very wide. If you do more low-profit things, it will be very impressive."
"How much do you know about research in the microscopic field?"
"Ah? Are you talking about nano-robots? There are indeed these, but they are not biological nano-robots. That is Green Forest City's technology."
"No, I'm talking about the more microscopic realm, below the atoms."
"Ah? That definitely doesn't happen! There was no progress in such advanced technology in the last era, right?"
"No, sometimes, backward civilizations can also develop technologies that surpass their times. Do you know how graphene was first prepared?"
"Uh... I really don't know about this. I haven't come across relevant information."
"It was glued down from the graphite sheet with scotch tape."
"ah?"
"The rules of the world are like this. To achieve certain results does not require particularly advanced technology, as long as you find the right method."
"Why are you saying this suddenly?"
"Raeder, you know that the technology used in your thinking module has surpassed the times, right?"
"Well, I've said it before, although I don't know exactly what happened."
"To put it simply, your father inadvertently came up with an algorithm while doing research, and this algorithm is part of the source code of this world."
"Ah? What do you mean? What is the source code of this world?"
"This is the real world we live in now."
"How can there be source code in the real world? It's not virtual!"
"Then let me ask you, if there is an AI born in a virtual world, and this world has no connection with the outside world, it has no way of knowing all the information from the outside world. So for this AI, what is the difference between this virtual world and the real world?
, are the rules of this virtual world as unbreakable to it as the laws of the real world?"
"This... you mean that we are actually the same as that AI? But no matter how good the virtual world is, there are loopholes, and they will definitely be discovered after a long time. There are no loopholes in the real world. Is there anyone left to fix the loopholes?"
"There is no one, but the self-improvement mechanism of the world will be repaired. The laws of the world also have conflicts and contradictions, but most intelligent creatures cannot reach the level of contact with these. But if you are lucky enough, you can encounter it.
Some loopholes, and even some algorithms of the world can be learned from them.”
"...So what do you want to say? What did my father discover?"
"Your father discovered the algorithm of human thinking, so he was able to develop the consciousness uploading technology, so he was able to extract the remaining parts from your mother's necrotic brain and integrate it with your consciousness."
"ah……"
"More importantly, he developed a computer hardware structure that perfectly matches this algorithm, and this hardware structure is also based on an unimaginable technology."
"What technology?"
"Writing reality, although currently only at the micro level."
"You mean... modifying the real world like writing a program?"
"Yes, that's why he was able to create substances that did not originally exist in this world, and used these fantasy products to create your thinking modules. Otherwise, according to the current technological level of this world, it is impossible for you to analyze the nature of human thinking.
, not to mention consciousness uploading.”
"It turns out that my body is so powerful..."
"You are actually a loophole, a being that should not exist in this world."
"Ah? Then will I be in danger?"
"of course."
"Am I going to be wiped out by the world's patching mechanisms!"
"Of course not. Your impact on the world is very small and will not trigger the repair mechanism."
"Then why do you still say I'm dangerous?"
"Your danger comes from humans, from the covetousness of other consortiums. No matter how tight the wall is, there are still gaps, and other consortiums will more or less know the secrets about you. Do you still remember the extraordinary attacks you encountered on the road?
It’s all for you.”
"Ah? I said what's going on, it turns out it's all because of me? So Xiao Wu also..."
"She's fine and there has to be no guilt about this."
"That being said, but..."
"If I say you don't need it, then you don't need it."
"oh……"
"Now do you understand why your father locked you in a garden-like cage?"
"I understand...but I still can't accept it. I can still survive outside."
"But it's not a good life."
"If it's not good, it's not good..."
"If it weren't for that girl Wu, you would have become a pile of research materials on the research table. Your father gave up on searching for you because he knew that the girl was capable of protecting you from harm. Otherwise, do you really think
Can I hide myself from his sight?"
"What do you mean? Are you saying that Xiao Wu actually reached an agreement with my father? Did she betray..."
"Without a promise, there's no talking about betrayal. When did she promise you not to communicate with your father?"
"This...is indeed not..."
"Also, she did not reach any agreement with your father. She just proved her strength with practical actions and made your father believe that she can guarantee your safety."
"How could it be? How could father easily believe someone of unknown origin..."
"Your father is a smart man, and he discovered that the girl is also an 'abnormality' that ordinary people cannot deal with, and this kind of abnormality cannot be fought against. Moreover, the girl left a message to your father in a surreal way,
He showed his goodwill, and after weighing the pros and cons, he could only choose to believe it."
"So... I thought I escaped from the prison, but it was actually like being secretly taken out to play by my older sister, right..."
"That's right."
"..."
"I feel very lost and frustrated, right?"
"Well...you shouldn't tell me this..."
"No, what I said is not the point."
"Then what's the point?"
"Your father still retains his deep love for you, and your mother firmly believes in this."
"Of course, if that guy dares not to love our daughter, I will not let him go even if I die."
Mother answered.
"I know he cares about me very much. So this is father's love..."
"But it's obvious that he doesn't want to love you in this way. He knows how painful it is for you to be imprisoned. He knows that you have been relatively comfortable during this period, but he is still worried about your safety."
"Is it because Xiao Wu is not with me..."
"He wanted to fundamentally solve this problem, so he did something big."
"What is it?"
"He wants to give you a whole new world instead of tinkering with this broken place."
