doomsday exile

Ever since she learned about the accidental "explosion" incident in a certain school in Donghui Province, Lu Di understood that she was not unique.

——Besides Lu Yun, there are other people in this world who can create spiritual life forms such as ghosts.

There are 70 billion people on the earth, no matter how small the probability is, the frequency of occurrence will increase if the base is large enough.

The two cases that Lu Di knew happened in China, so what about outside China?

There is nothing "extra special" about Chinese people.

According to the scientific traceability of genes, the origin of all human beings on earth is in Africa, and we have neither reproductive isolation nor biological subspecies.So no matter how prevalent the racism is and how arrogant the racial chauvinists are, the fact is that all people on earth are of the same kind, basically the same.

In the same way, it can be proved that there have been two cases in China with a population of more than one billion in ten years, and the base of nearly 50 billion in foreign countries must have at least one, right?

Lu Di is not curious about "the same kind", he does not expect the same kind, in fact, he is the one who knows best how destructive the "ghost" is.

Don't look at Lu Di's salty fish all day long, it's because he wants to live such a life like this, if not?

What if it is a spiritual life body that is full of hatred and wants to destroy and kill?

Lu Di was a little anxious.

He wasn't worried about a town attacked by an evil spirit on the other side of the ocean, but wondered if the evil spirit was caught, would the situation become more complicated?Big men who expect to live forever, scientists obsessed with the theory of a perfect spiritual body, Professor Mars who created an artificial semi-finished spiritual body, and the "Apocalypse" organization that promotes eschatology.

"That's really lively." Lu Di said to himself.

He used the name of the town to try to search for more detailed information.

At this time, a dialog box suddenly popped up on the virtual screen of the terminal computer.

There is also a picture on the dialog box, which is a blue and glowing jellyfish.

Lu Di: "..."

This is not a chat dialog box, it's more like Lu Di's keyword search triggered a mechanism, so this hidden program jumped out.

So here comes the question, isn't Yan Long helping Sui Run study?

When did he hack into his computer terminal account?

Lu Di stared at the jellyfish in the picture, and suddenly found that Yan Long's chat profile picture was only a part of the picture, and now he saw the whole thing. This is a jellyfish with a very strange shape, which looks like an ancient three-masted ship from a distance. , is a ship with many sails in the age of great voyages.

The sail is flat and slightly tilted, more like a sailboat traveling at full speed on the sea.

The hull of the ship is blue, and the color gets darker as it goes down. When it reaches the "bottom of the ship", it is already very blue. Foreboding.

Below the "hull" is the long jellyfish tentacles. This angle is well chosen, like a curtain composed of transparent crystals, reflecting the color of the sea water.

But this jellyfish image does not match Yan Long's main body.

Lu Di happened to have a newly replaced wrist computer terminal in his hand, and he instinctively picked it up to scan and read the pictures.

"A man-of-war jellyfish?"

Lu Di was full of doubts, and the conclusions were very different. Although the color tone was similar, there was a big difference between Shan Fan and Duo Fan, and their appearance was also different.

The man-of-war jellyfish is a creature with a "head" that can be filled with gas and floats on the sea as a sail. Lu Di has heard its name and knows that it is highly poisonous.

But Lu Di didn't know that this thing likes to live in groups. Watching the video, a whole group of small transparent sails float up and down in the sea, just like elves in a fairy tale world-but this land full of small blue sailboats The sea area is where the cloak of death shrouds.

The tentacles of the man-of-war jellyfish can be up to ten meters long and release neurotoxins that can kill humans and animals.

It sounds very powerful, Lu Di thought to himself.

At this time, he found that there was another option in the picture recognition interface. He clicked on this contraction item strangely, and then his expression changed.

become indescribable.

It was a conceptual drawing with rough modeling. It was different from Yan Long's picture of jellyfish that had been refined and changed colors and floated up and down. The conceptual drawing was ugly, but it had a name that Lu Di couldn't bear to look at directly.

Ghost jellyfish.

A futuristic creature imagined by scientists.

Scientists believe that after the sea level rises, there will be large groups of jellyfish like deep-sea tube jellyfish in shallow sea areas. The template is to put together many man-of-war jellyfish into a "big boat".

Lu Di admitted that the picture modeled by Yan Long is not only beautiful, but also really looks like the legendary "ghost ship" after being magnified countless times, because it is completely transparent except for the blue hull!The name of the ghost jellyfish probably comes from this, but this thing is full of speechless sense of sight from the name to the concept!

"Tsk, I also want to thank you for playing with me? A master modeler worth several million?"

With a black line on his head, Lu Di quickly clicked on the pop-up dialog box, making the picture disappear from his eyes.

Then the computer terminal starts to download a file automatically.

Very domineering, very viral style.

Lu Di complained silently.

When opening these files, Lu Di's eyes suddenly widened.

Information about "ghosts" and "evil spirits" that has been completely classified.

There are a lot of news from the Internet, and many of them are marked with a confidential level, and come from Chinese and foreign intelligence agencies.

The level of confidentiality is not high, and the content is very brief, mainly because no one has paid attention to it before, and it is often regarded as a terrorist attack or accident, so many records only have one sentence.

However, the news of the past 20 years has been collected in more detail.

Some incidents that are basically impossible to be caused by "evil spirits" have been classified by Yan Long into the category of "no need to pay attention". Among them, there are five or six records lying in the folder of "special attention", all of which happened abroad without exception.

The latest is the small-town spirit in Kansas.

There is time, place, death toll and specific circumstances.

This is much better than Lu Di blindly searching for news on the Internet and rummaging through a bunch of untrue news.

There is also a guestbook in the folder.

"Knowing that it will be useful, I have already paid attention to it, Yan Long."

Lu Di: "..."

Yan Long is an existence that will always make people feel reliable no matter what time it is.

——Relieve your danger, save your urgent needs.

It seems to be always in front of you and cooperate with you tacitly.

Know your unspoken doubts, and understand you better than anyone else.

Lu Di was silent for a minute, then lay on his back in frustration.

Fuck, foul!

With this kind of teammates and partners, can they be exchanged for others?

***

After Yan Long realized that a small program he had set was triggered, he just distracted himself and glanced at Lu Di's search records, and he knew the cause and effect.

He didn't open the address book to talk to Lu Di, but returned to work.

Coincidentally, he happened to be talking about "friends" with Sui Run.

"A friend is a little unexpected. He or she may not be the partner you expected, but you will feel that this person's mind and soul are closer to you than others. Soul is a concept, you can understand it as brain waves .”

"...We don't have brain waves." Sui Run replied.

"Don't be bound by the concepts of books. Of course I know that living creatures with brains have brain waves. When we think, the light emitted by the main body, whether it is regular or irregular, is our brain waves."

Sui Run is very good at drawing inferences: "So we also have hearts."

"The core is not the heart. In fact, the 'heart' that humans call is sometimes a virtual existence."

"For example, thinking about someone in your heart is actually thinking in your head?" Sui Run asked curiously, "Then what do you think of 'friends'? Let's use Lu Di as an example."

Yan Long keenly feels that Sui Run's feelings are richer than his own, and he is more interested in them. Is this the gender difference in self-cognition?

No matter what, this topic can't go on, otherwise I will expose myself and Lu Di in front of Professor Tu and Professor Xia.

"Human beings need friends, and we also need friends. Life is not equal to tasks and work... You should think about what you want to do and who you want to chat with in your own time. There is no purpose, just that person. "

Suirun's thinking slowed down. After 3 minutes, she said regretfully: "I seem to have many friends, but I don't seem to have any."

Yan Long was not surprised, this is normal.

Biological AI will not realize the difference between "human beings" at first, but it clearly knows that "self" is different.

This difference is deeply rooted. No matter what kind of authority they get and how they are trusted, in the final analysis they are not human beings.

So Yan Long and Sui Run talked about the law and the discipline of the base.

It's very easy, Suirun was born here, the world she knows is that everyone abides by rules and regulations, everything is in good order, and everyone will be subject to invisible constraints, not just AI.

"But the outside world is different..."

Yan Long felt that it would be better to explain in advance when Sui Qian found out.

"Human beings are worried about AI and restricting AI is no different from the Earth Federation's constitution restricting parliaments and restricting the use of nuclear weapons by various countries. Essentially, it is for everyone to continue to live on this planet, to continue human civilization and itself. Ambitious people will put everything but Everyone other than themselves is used as a tool. In their eyes, there is actually no difference between humans and AI. There are only superiors and those who are dominated in the world. Anyone who cannot be controlled by them is the object of their vigilance and suspicion. There is no need Compete with these people."

Yan Long paused, and then said, "These people always think that there are very few things that are out of their control, but the fact is the opposite. The higher the status, the more they have, and the more things that will get out of control."

"So how do you survive in a chaotic world that can get out of control at any time?"

"Remember responsibility and keep yourself."

After Yan Long said this, he repeated, "No matter when, don't forget this sentence."

"I..." Suirun muttered to himself.

"When you come to this world, the first idea you feel is the meaning of your existence. It will be like a lighthouse in the fog, always pointing you in the right direction."

"Then will I be a beacon for others?"

Yan Long was very surprised, he "stared" at Sui Run.

Sui Ren's virtual projection has no specific image, or she has no idea for the time being, so the projection is just a purple cloud.

"Yes, I think, this may be Professor Tu's hope."

In the boundless dark space of the universe, the spaceship AI will always be firm and never lose hope.
