Abyss game

The three of them thanked Tang Jingchuan and returned to Doumuxie.

They looked downcast and Zou Yidao and Shu Ai became nervous.

"What's the matter? Didn't you ask anything?"

"No, I asked a lot."

"Then..." Zou Yidao said cautiously, "Does your expression mean that the situation is serious? Tell me quickly."

"I can't say it." Shen Wufei said with a bitter face, "Brother Dao, Shu Ai, the three of us got a lot of information from Han Shaojin's mouth, but we can't tell you, because according to what he said, If you know too much and are discovered by the system, you will be wiped out."

Qiao Jingting and Bai Er also nodded.

Zou Yidao and Shu Ai looked at each other: "Can't say anything? What about you? Are you all right?"

"I don't know if there is anything wrong with us, but we are the so-called 'core characters', and the system will be more tolerant of us than ordinary players. Even so, Han Shaojin warned us not to dig deeper into the truth of the game, because any damage People who follow the rules of the game will be punished by the system, and the core characters are no exception."

Zou Yidao took a puff of cigarette sullenly: "So, is the purpose of this game to activate people's Tibetan image system?"

"This is just one of the purposes. Han Shaojin refuses to tell us about the larger purpose after activating the Zangxiang system."

"Then, did you and Jing Ting participate in that round table meeting?"

"According to Han Shaojin, it was not us who participated in the round table meeting, but our parents."

Shu Ai looked at Qiao Jingting puzzledly: "Then why do you have that memory?"

Qiao Jingting shook his head: "I don't know either, I think Qiao Yunkai implanted the memory into my brain, just like the origin of the Tai Sui necklace, he also made up a memory of 'my grandfather's relic' for my life, as for him I don't know the purpose of doing this."

"Then at least the mystery of the round table meeting has been solved..." Zou Yidao frowned, "Han Shaojin knew the purpose of this game, he knew it 20 years ago, and he also entered the game knowingly, then he... Could it be..."

"Hush." ​​Shen Wufei was a little nervous, "Don't say it, no matter what guesses you have, just keep it in your heart, I don't think he is alarmist, if the system detects that we know too much, I am afraid it is really dangerous. "

Shu Ai lowered the volume unconsciously: "Then... we really don't want to explore anymore?"

Qiao Jingting shook his head resolutely: "No, of course we have to explore it. Combining what Bai Wang and Han Shaojin said, becoming an Ace can leave the game, but we can't get the freedom we want. For our freedom, we must find the real way to leave the game. Isn’t everything we do for this? After entering the game for more than a year, we finally found a breakthrough, and we must not give up.”

Shen Wufei nodded: "That's right, so for the sake of safety, it's fine for the three of us to study. You just need to remember that we are companions and trust us, that's enough."

Zou Yidao said without hesitation: "Of course, we absolutely trust you."

Shuai also nodded firmly.

"However..." Shen Wufei nodded his head, and said with some seriousness, "Don't trust the other person in my body, and always be vigilant against him."

Several people nodded in unison.

In fact, they are all worried about the same thing in their hearts, that is, what will Shen Wufei's second personality do after knowing these things, but unfortunately this is unavoidable.

Shen Wufei stood up: "I need a period of quiet thinking, you all go to your own affairs, Brother Dao, you continue to pay attention to the information, Shu Ai, you also continue to keep in touch with other guilds, if Jian Feng does anything, we will definitely To know immediately."

"it is good."

Just as Qiao Jingting was about to open his mouth to say something, Shen Wufei stopped him: "Jingting, I suggest you go to Yu Renshu now, or go to kill monsters, or go to practice, whatever you do, just don't go to Qiao Ruidu .”

Qiao Jingting sighed: "Understood, I'll go find Yu Renshu."

"Ah."

Bai Er said: "Then let's go hunt the monsters, the sun just happened to go down."

Zou Yidao extinguished the cigarette in his hand: "Go, no matter what, becoming stronger is the last word."——

Qiao Jingting returned to the dungeon of Tianling Continent, and found Yu Renshu without much effort. It seemed that as long as he cleared the customs, the world would be free for him.

He has mastered the four moves that Yu Renshu taught him very well, and he has successfully realized the combination of strength and strength. Yu Renshu is very satisfied with the progress, and he also kept his promise, and taught him the fifth move of the Seven Elements Transforming Dragon. Form - the eagle strikes the sky.

Qiao Jingting stayed here all day, practicing repeatedly under Yu Renshu's guidance.

The more you go into the essence of the moves, the more difficult it will be. At first, Qiao Jingting thought the first and second moves were quite simple, but now he doesn't dare to say big words that he can master immediately, and practiced honestly.

During the break, Qiao Jingting asked how to deal with the Yuan of Heaven and Earth, Jiang Chaoge replied: "Yinchuan hid it again, as long as the Yuan of Heaven and Earth is still there, the war on this continent will not end."

Qiao Jingting nodded: "Then you should be more careful." This kind of feeling is quite strange, he can appear in another world anytime and anywhere, and the people in this world, although they are manufactured, have real feelings. And they are also experiencing the struggle of their own destiny, just like them...

Qiao Jingting was startled suddenly.

Jiang Chaoge and others seem to have flesh and blood, have their own stories and destiny, what is the real difference from them?Jiang Chaoge doesn't think that he is just an NPC in the game dungeon, he thinks that he is a real person, and they...they have never doubted their authenticity as human beings!

Qiao Jingting suddenly felt cold all over.He has never had such an idea before, because he has a complete memory of being a human being, and he also has a real physical body, but the same is true for Jiang Chaoge and his group. He killed many people in this world, and everyone's body It is a physical body, but any high-level monsters or NPCs no longer have obvious metal skeletons and circuits in their bodies, almost the same as living people.

Now that human-like artificial intelligence has been perfected to this extent, why do they think they are really human?

This realization made Qiao's hair stand on end. Could it be... Could it be that they were actually created?That would explain more.

In fact, since meeting Han Shaojin, he has been thinking wildly and thinking about all kinds of things these days. From doubting his memory, to doubting his own life, and then doubting the world, now he even starts to doubt whether he is a human being up.This feeling is more terrifying than a knife across an artery, because it can deny a person all knowledge of himself, as if everything about him is manufactured, he never existed.

This thought made him restless, he bid farewell to Yu Renshu and Jiang Chaoge in advance, and returned to Doumuxie.

After a day and a night, Shen Wufei was still retreating, but Qiao Jingting couldn't help knocking on his door.

Shen Wufei's face was haggard, his eyes were bloodshot, and it looked like he hadn't rested and was using his brain too much. The information tormented everyone, and Shen Wufei, who usually thought too much, was about to explode at this time.

Qiao Jingting said in a hurry: "I was with Yu Renshu and Jiang Chaoge yesterday, and I was thinking, thinking... What if we are the same as them? What if we are not human at all, just created Where did it come out? What if we..."

"Calm down." Shen Wufei put both hands on Qiao Jingting's shoulders, pulled him into the room, and let him sit in a chair, "Calm down, you can think of this level, which means that your intelligence has improved a lot."

"You've thought of it a long time ago, then tell me quickly, are we human or not!" Qiao Jingting was really terrified by this thought.

Shen Wufei took a deep breath: "Don't worry, we are really human."

Qiao Ting was stunned: "How are you sure?"

"A long time ago, when I first entered the game, I saw so many NPCs who were no different from real people, so I already had this guess, so I took my own blood samples, skin, and hair for experiments. We 100% They are all real human beings, you can rest assured of that."

Qiao Jingting breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, we are really human..."

"but……"

"There's still a fucking but!" Qiao Jingting growled, "Can you finish the sentence at once!"

"Don't get excited, what I want to say is that even if we are really 'human', the concept of 'human' has different definitions."

"What do you mean?"

"What do you think a person is?" Shen Wufei asked rhetorically.

Qiao Jingting frowned: "It's...it's us, flesh and blood, bones and hair, our own thoughts, feelings, and can... use tools?"

"If this is what you define as a person, then the NPC in the game is also a person."

"What do you mean?"

"I have dissected NPCs. Their flesh, bones, and hair are all generated by real cells. They are real carbon-based life forms. Unlike the machine monsters we encountered, there are no metal skeletons and heads in their bodies. There's a chip in there, and anatomically, they're just like us."

Qiao Jingting looked at Shen Wufei in shock: "How come... If this is really the case, then they are human beings, not NPCs."

"No, they are NPCs, they were made."

"I'm begging you, brother, don't be devious, and you can finish what you need to say at once, okay?" Qiao Jingting was about to die of anxiety.

Shen Wufei rubbed his tired brows and eyes: "From the naked eye, there is no difference between our kind of 'people' and their kind of 'people', but from the perspective of genes, they are completely different, they are too perfect."

"Too perfect?"

"Yes, people are flawed. People carry various diseases and defects in their genes. Everyone is the same. As long as the genes are diseased, people will malfunction like a machine that has been in disrepair or directly Shutdown. But they are different, their genes are constructed and screened by human beings, all unnecessary things and defective things are eliminated from their genes, and their genes determine their gender, hair color, height, single Double eyelids, high and short nose bridges, they do not carry recessive genes, and they will not get sick without external force. Their flesh, bones, and hair are cultivated in the laboratory with human stem cells, and their memories And thoughts are programmed into genes, these things are all real, but they are not their own. They are 'people', like machines made up of human parts, you call them 'people' , they are manufactured, you are not 'human', they conform to all the characteristics of a human from the inside out."

Qiao Jingting took a deep breath: "What about us? We are not this kind of people, are we?"

"We are not, our genes are defective, carrying various recessive genes, tens of thousands of times more abundant than their genes, and we came out of the mother's womb." The worry on Shen Wufei's face did not diminish, " However, the boundary between human-like artificial intelligence and human beings has become so blurred that it can only be distinguished at the genetic level, what a frightening fact.”

"Well, there are many such subjects in science fiction movies. Artificial intelligence is too human-like."

"Yes, it's so similar." Shen Wufei shook his head and sighed, "The 'person' created in this way, even if you program him with thoughts and memories, he comes to this world, through contact with the surrounding things, , it will produce its own thoughts and memories, which is unavoidable. Once humanoid artificial intelligence breaks through the limitations of thinking, it is really almost the same as real humans. The NPCs you see, because they are set in In a fixed plot, there are fixed functions, so it is relatively simple, but a human-like artificial intelligence that is truly unlimited and completely manufactured according to human standards is really already a human.”

Qiao Jingting patted his chest twice: "No matter what, it is enough to know that I am really a person."

Shen Wufei smiled and said: "Yeah, I came to the game, and I was worried about this for a long time. I didn't let go until I was sure that I was really human. Otherwise... I don't know what all this means."

"yes……"

If a person's feelings, relatives, and experiences are all false and fabricated out of thin air, then he will completely lose the meaning of living.
