"Xihe, even in the false paradise constructed by the illusion, you still haven't changed at all."
Next to a supercomputer that was as big as half a room, stood the figure of Troy. However, compared to the younger version of himself on the screen, although he still looks delicate and elegant, the years have left traces on his face.
Leaving unintentional traces.
While he was staring at the screen, he seemed to be thinking about something. At the same time, he was looking at the extremely realistic images on the screen, and at the ordinary students under Professor Yuan who could never go back to their daily lives. He spoke softly.
He said these words lightly.
However, what is actually on the screen is not a video or photography from the past, but something completely and continuously happening now. Although Troy is already familiar with the ordinary plots that will follow, because these are
They were all things he had experienced before, seven or eight years ago. But to the people on the screen, they seemed like a new life that had not yet arrived.
The reason for everything is that the only function of this supercomputer is to simulate reality and calculations with extreme fidelity, and can even accommodate real souls to enter and experience it - or, if the word soul seems too unscientific, just use
Use words like "will" or "spirit" instead.
When a person's spirit enters the simulation program of this supercomputer, he is equivalent to entering a virtual world that is the same as the real world in terms of level of detail and precision.
If he did not have self-awareness in advance, or was told in some way later, then he would definitely not be able to tell whether the place he was in was a real world composed of atoms and molecules, or a virtual program piled up by a torrent of data.
All the scenery, furnishings and even most of the NPC characters in this world must be quite familiar to the individual spirit who enters the super computer.
That's because, to construct a sufficiently detailed world from scratch, even if it's just a small area with a certain level of precision, the amount of manual work required is almost astronomical. No matter how talented Troy is, he can't complete such a heavy task alone.
work.
Therefore, there is another crucial extended simulation program in this virtual paradise. It can read all the memories of people who enter the world, and use the details and plots stored in the memory to fill in and construct the world.
The remaining blank parts are filled in with machine logic, and are finally refined by Troy.
In this way, it can be ensured that the entire world is self-consistent and precise, at least in the eyes of the person who enters the virtual world and within the visible range of his experience.
But although this saves a lot of complicated and unavoidable redundant work and makes this world almost like reality, there is still a flaw that cannot be ignored - that is because this virtual world is meant to be entered.
The memory of the people here has an unconscious influence on the constructed place, and everyone's memory has a certain degree of subjectivity and bias.
This leads to the final appearance of the world and the changing trend of things in the future, which will match the deepest impression in the mind of the person who enters it, and will secretly run according to his original memory track. Unless the third party who controls the computer deliberately
Destroy some of these processes, otherwise the people in them will just unconsciously follow the memory process they are most familiar with.
In other words, it is equivalent to turning the past memories in the mind of the entrant into a reality that can be seen before them, and then experiencing it again meaninglessly - no, far more than once, but as long as there is still enough left.
The energy supply method will continue to cycle forever, just like the daily cycle in the real world, except that the cycle in the virtual world is longer, about more than a year.
A person who reincarnates in the virtual world will also not have even the slightest awareness that he is constantly repeating reincarnation. He will only follow a fixed track step by step, replaying the memories of that year continuously.
Experience, facing a future that has been chewed a thousand times, still embraces the freshness of the first encounter.
This approach seems meaningless at first glance. Allowing a person to continue to repeat the same year in the virtual world can neither cause substantial changes, nor experience anything new, nor create opportunities that have never existed in the past. But for the current Troy
In other words, this computer is the only way to keep that soul from dissipating.
That's right, the person who is currently diving into the virtual electronic world, repeating the cycle of past experiences forever, is Nangong Xihe - the woman on the screen who has always stood in the central perspective and interacted with the surrounding world in various ways.
As for the other people on the screen, including Ye Suling, Troy, etc., they are just NPCs simulated by electronic programs based on Nangong Xihe's memory. Their intelligence is extremely low and they can only carry out conversations within a fixed range. As long as they speak a little
Two other sentences can easily expose their disguise.
But such an accident will not happen, because Nangong Xihe, who has gone through countless reincarnations, has not made any actions outside the preset range, and all of them are moving smoothly according to the preset track.
Although she is the only being in this virtual world who is not an NPC but a real human spirit, there is no difference between her behavior and that of the NPC. Her actions and dialogues in her past memories will remain unchanged, so there will naturally be no surprises.
Case.
The reason why Troy wants to bring Nangong Xihe into this virtual world is because, as a human, she is almost equivalent to death - she only has one brain left, and even most of her physiological functional areas are gone.
The brain that has been shut down for a long time, only the part of the cerebral cortex that maintains self-awareness and thinking ability is still functioning.
Of course, Troy had tried his best to achieve this, and it was an unprecedented achievement. After all, from the perspective of modern medicine, the brain cannot remain active for more than an hour after being separated from the body, but he did
He forced Nangong Xihe's brain to stay in this world for another seven or eight years.
Of course, such an existence cannot be considered alive, but Troy insists that as long as her self-awareness still exists, she cannot be treated as a dead person.
So Troy not only built a special nutrient solution survival chamber for her to maintain the last bit of brain activity on a physiological level, but in order to prevent the last brain waves from disappearing, he also used a supercomputer to create a repetitive virtual world.
Let Nangong Xihe's brain continue to be stimulated by the outside world, thinking that he is still living a normal life.
