Cyber ​​Weird Experience

Chapter 60 The Brain in a Vat
Since the return of the ancient god space species, Stuart has been very wrong.

She has been speaking with a very positive tone!

Although the time they spent together was very short, Ning Yuan knew that Stuart's speaking habits were not like this.

Although she is very proud in her heart and has strong confidence in her own judgment, she never expresses it on things she is not sure about.

This is related to her professionalism, she will not draw conclusions without theoretical support.

There are always some premises added when talking, or directly saying that I am not sure.

And in the event of Ducalda's resurrection, she was too sure.

Ning Yuan has always felt this problem, but after being disturbed by too many other things, he forgot this doubt.

Thinking about it now, there is definitely something wrong with Stuart, maybe...

And those own fans are probably disguised by the Holy Spirit, and the disguise is not sufficient.

He couldn't help recalling Gegemu's words marked with red pen: "Be careful, you are still in Ducalda!"

Is it...

This is a virtual world.

The virtual world that Dukarta created for himself?

Just like in "Black X Empire", a complete, virtual, undetectable world of Yuan Ruins.

No wonder, the three of Beifengliang will look like in the game, and Du Karda doesn't know what they look like in the real world!

That's why there are such mistakes.

Speaking of mistakes, maybe the scars on the fans' faces are also.

Yuanxu is not the end of the twentieth century in the Matrix. The information density here is that in the Matrix... At least a few trillion times, even an ancient god must be very difficult to simulate.

He couldn't help frowning, and then smiled bitterly.

Ah.

Brain in a vat.

I still fell into this situation!

A brain immersed in a formalin tank, all the sensations are simulated... May I ask, in such a situation, how to judge whether the world is virtual or real?

he does not know.

There is no Murphys here, and no one will give him the red pill... Maybe, already?

The "Prajna Prajna Getting Rich Sutra" handed to him by Ge Gemu may be the red pill to see reality.

But what about the red pill?

The world in The Matrix is ​​layered. Even if you take the red pill, what you see is a virtual world. Even if you break the layer, can you see the real world?

He shook his head.

These are all unknown.

The first thing to do is... well, find a bug.

If my deduction is correct, and the scars on the faces of fans are caused by insufficient computing power, then there are other bugs in this world.

He just wanted to discuss with Stuart, but stopped at the critical moment.

Stewart... was already unbelievable.

How to do it?

He turned to look at Xiaolei beside him: "Xiaolei, I want to ask you something."

"Tell me." Xiaolei tilted her head and looked at Ning Yuan.

"Do you think the world is virtual or real?"

"Does it make sense?"

"It makes sense to me."

"It must be fake." Xiao Lei said with a smile.

"what?"

"Hahaha, just kidding, how can such a painful world be fake." Xiaolei smiled and said, "I have to repay countless loans every day, such as car loans, mortgages, student loans, company training Training bags, prosthetic body loans, intermediary loans when looking for a job, small loans for normal life... I can't even squeeze out the money for my child's milk powder."

"You... Married?" Ning Yuan looked at Xiaolei with some surprise, her posture didn't seem like she had ever given birth to a child.

"No." Xiaolei shook her head: "Where's the money to get married? I didn't give birth to this child. It was ordered by the company from the embryonic cultivation company of Dingshang Medical, and it was distributed to employees to raise. If you raise the child, you can Forgive part of the loan."

"..." Ning Yuan was speechless.

It's very cyber.

The working hours of 007 caused the fertility rate to drop precipitously. In order to supplement the labor force and populate the population, the world pointed out the technology of artificial embryos.

I'm going to... order humans...

terrible.

Damn, what do I think these are for.

Ning Yuan shook his head, pushing these thoughts out of his mind.

Xiaolei's way of judging the authenticity of the world is very simple.

pain.

Because of pain, so real.

But pain can also be artificially produced.

"I wish this world was fake." Xiaolei said with a smile, "The real me is living under the Tathagata seat, enjoying the bliss of the Western Paradise, and spending time in peace and beauty."

Yes, since it is a virtual world, why doesn't Dukarta create a happy world.

Soak your brain with a layer of beautiful dreams, so that you won't notice it.

Oh……

He suddenly understood.

For garbage creatures like human beings, the pain of others is the source of their own happiness.

How can people be sure that what they get is happiness without comparing the miserable experiences of others?

How can people know that what they get is happiness without the pain of others to compare with?

If there were no other people who would break down the house and bedding, would not be able to eat enough, would be too tired to rest for the rest of their lives, and would not dare to marry in fear.

Then I have a brocade hat, sable fur, gold bricks, jade tiles, delicacies from mountains and seas, and beauties from all over the world, so I can do whatever I want...is it still fun?
Only when you have other people's pain can you feel refreshed.

If you can give a little money to the poor while enjoying yourself, and satisfy the following empathy that I have nowhere to put...

Wouldn't that be more enjoyable?
Ah.

Ning Yuan sneered in his heart.

Yes, I have always wanted to be popular, and I want to become a UP master who is popular all over the world.

So Dukarda gave himself such a dream.

Hey!
"I'm really determined."

Ning Yuan sighed and stood up.

He is not someone who indulges in low-level desires.

"What are you doing?" Xiaolei asked, "The recording will start soon."

"I'm going to take a breath."

After speaking, he came to the stage, knocked down the security guard standing guard with a punch, then grabbed the gun and ran out of the studio quickly.

"I c..." The plosive sound in Xiaolei's mouth just came out halfway, but she was blocked by her professionalism, and she shouted: "Stop him!"

Seeing Ning Yuan's actions, the fans in the audience also became curious.

"Wow! Great Ning Yuan!"

"Master Ning Yuan, what are you going to do! We are going too!"

He looked at his star-studded fans and said with a smile, "Don't move around here, I'm going to rob a bank."

After finishing speaking, he rushed out of the room and took the elevator all the way down.

He wanted to see what would happen if he didn't obey the repertoire that Ducalta had arranged for him.

……

Upper Braville.

The streets were full of people coming and going, bustling like a dream, when suddenly a gunshot rang out.

A white crane landed on the street, looking at the sky silently with its dilated pupils.

Ning Yuan was finally stopped by the security guards.

The security company Yuanxu TUBE cooperates with has a high-level supernatural person. He is trapped in a layer of ice prison and cannot move, still holding a gun in his hand.

As a low-level ability user, Ning Yuan sighed.

Are the abilities imitated so well?
Also, the most outrageous thing about the game "Exotic Exploration: Divine Skeleton" is the [-]% ability simulation.

He looked at the white crane that had fallen to the ground, and sighed helplessly.

It seems that I am going to file a lawsuit with the environmental sanitation company next?
The security guard carried him back to the studio.

As soon as she entered the studio, Xiaolei said with a sullen expression, "Why are you so nervous? If the security guards hadn't stopped you, you would have been destroyed by the people from Lordfield Bank!"

"It's okay to collapse."

Ning Yuan suddenly thought that his own death might also be the way to break the situation.

But... who could have guessed what would happen after death?

So this can only be a last resort.

Calda...

Really scary.

"Next, you should behave well. The company has invested so much money in you. You can't afford to lose." Xiaolei threatened and said, "Many people's jobs are on you. If you don't cooperate well, those who lost their jobs Man, will tear you apart!"

"what."

Ning Yuan responded impatiently.

"Can you do it? If not, we will find a substitute who is similar to you, and AI will change your face." Xiaolei said, "Your mental state is very problematic. We have made an appointment with a psychiatrist for you. Go report."

"I don't need a psychiatrist." Ning Yuan said, "I'm not crazy."

"No, you have to go, this is part of the contract." Xiaolei said: "There are often artists who suffer from excessive pressure and mental breakdown. This must be detected and treated early. If you don't go, you will have to pay liquidated damages .”

"Depend on!"

"Forget it, you can go back, apologize to your fans, and rest for an afternoon." Xiaolei said: "We change faces with AI."

"..."

Ning Yuan thought about it.

Not having to deal with recording, which is great, just as he needs a little time to think about how to break the game.

"You should have done this earlier."

"You don't need money to find a stand-in AI to change your face!" Xiaolei said, "The extra expenses will be on your shoulders. Go and apologize to the fans."

He nodded and walked in front of the fans: "Well, brothers, I found a bug in this world, I'll go back and get stuck, you don't move around here, my brother will come back to replace me later, you treat him as my brother." Just do it."

"Forehead……"

"Wow! Alright, Mr. Ning Yuan! Go get stuck!"

"I'm waiting for your operation!"

The fans said excitedly.

"Come on, fans of Ningyuan, sign a non-disclosure agreement." Xiaolei called out the prepared electronic contract and said.

At the same time, Ning Yuan was carried back into the room by two security guards.

……

"Ning Yuan, what's wrong with you? Why didn't you record the video?" Stuart's voice came, with a little surprise in his tone.

"Gary..." Ning Yuan lay on the sofa, smiled wryly, and said, "Should I call you Gary? Or Dukarda?"

"What are you talking about?" Stuart said in shock, "Why do you doubt me?"

"Come on."

Ning Yuan rubbed his brows and said, "The Gabriel Stewart I know is a person with a nice voice, a foul mouth, and a serious and responsible person. Her tone is completely different from yours."

"Oh, that's it, I thought I was pretending well."

"Dukalda, why did you create such a dream for me?" Ning Yuan asked, "Where is the real Gary?"

He thought of many ways just now, but none of them could solve the brain-in-a-vat problem.

Brain in a vat...

This question is so fucked up.

It shakes the foundation of "truth". Seeing is not necessarily true, hearing is not necessarily true, so the thinking that comes out of it is not necessarily true.

What a false world.

No solution.

Ning Yuan felt that instead of making wild guesses, it would be better to directly ask Dukarda what he meant.

Might be able to get some useful information.

So he directly pierced the window paper.

"Of course it is to make you die happily." Ducalda said with a smile in Stuart's voice: "You die happily, which is very important to me."

"Have I died happily?"

Ning Yuan suddenly recalled that he was pierced through the chest by Dukarda's sword.

"Why is it important for you that I die happily?"

Ducalta smiled and said, "Because... you guessed yourself?"

"I don't guess, I just want you to tell me."

"Do you think I'll tell you?" Ducalda said with a smile, "Even if I told you, how would you know if it's true? Hahaha."

"I'll believe what you say." Ning Yuan said.

"I said earlier, the joy of your death is very important to me, and it is very important to the entire world of Karda."

"You are really good at farting with this mouth. It's the same as not saying it."

"Hahaha."

Ning Yuan frowned and said, "It's fine if you don't tell me, but can you stop talking to me in Gary's voice?"

"Oh? Hahahaha!" Ducalda said, "I have Stuart's authority to manipulate her, so I naturally want to speak in her voice."

"You!" Ning Yuan shouted angrily, just about to say something, but closed his mouth again.

at this point.

He also has no way to get Stuart back.

Unless, he can break it all.

Hey ~
Ning Yuan closed his eyes, thinking painfully, lost his first friend in Yuanxu just like this?
Do not……

She cannot be manipulated like this.

Something had to be figured out.

but……

correct!

Dukarta... No, the limit that can be simulated by the virtual world of the Holy Spirit of the Ancient God Heaven should be limited to the physical reality.

And the King of Eternal Night who also belongs to the ancient gods, he should have no way to imitate it.

If you activate the source quality chip here, you should be able to see through the truth!

Although there will be various problems every time I start the 'Eternal Night Styx' chip, but now I don't care about so much.

"Master, activate the Yongye Styx."

"... No relevant chips were retrieved..."

"……failed to activate……"

Hey!
……

While thinking, the time came to night.

Xiaolei walked in, followed by a slightly older middle-aged man.

She introduced to Ning Yuan: "Ning Yuan, this is the psychiatrist we often cooperate with, Dr. Lin."

"Oh."

Ning Yuan raised his eyelids and glanced at the middle-aged man, then closed his eyes again: "Go back where you came from, I'm not sick!"

"Haha." Doctor Lin smiled, then sat down on the sofa, and then looked Ning Yuan up and down: "Young man looks good, I wonder if this face is original?"

"Is it none of your business?" Ning Yuan narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm bothered."

"Hey, boy, isn't that a little too rude? Talking to a stranger like that?"

"Anyone who is suddenly asked to build a psychiatrist will not have a good temper." Ning Yuan said: "I want to say that you are sick, do you agree?"

"I agree, of course I agree." Dr. Lin said with a smile: "I had some kidney problems last year, so I got a prosthetic kidney, but the kidney was not compatible with my prostate, so I often woke up at night, once in the middle of the night... ..."

"Shut up!" Ning Yuan sat up and said, "I really don't want to hear the story about you peeing your pants."

"Hahaha, look, don't you want to chat?" Dr. Lin said with a smile: "What I'm good at is talking, chatting, let's talk, if it can solve your distress, that would be great It's over!"

"Okay, let's chat." Ning Yuan grabbed two bottles of orange juice from the refrigerator and handed one to Dr. Lin: "Here, I want to hear what you have to say."

Xiaolei who was at the side heard it, and said with a smile: "Ning Yuan, please receive treatment well, I still have something to do, so I will withdraw first."

"It's chatting, not treatment." Dr. Lin said to Xiaolei with a smile: "You have to be more careful with what you say in the future, it's not good for the artistes of the company."

"Xiao Lei knows." After finishing speaking, she walked out of the room.

Ning Yuan asked: "Doctor Lin, I think you are also an interesting person. There is a problem that has troubled me for a long time."

"You said."

Ning Yuan drank a large glass of orange juice and asked, "How can you be sure that the world you are in is real?"

"Is it the real world..." Doctor Lin thought for a while, then suddenly laughed: "You mean Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly."

Zhuang Zhou's Dream of a Butterfly...

Ning Yuan couldn't help but think that the culture of the earth is really blooming everywhere in Yuanxu.

"That's right."

There are indeed similarities between Zhuang Zhou's Dream of a Butterfly and the Brain in a Vat.

"Zhuang Zhou Mengdie." Dr. Lin looked up at the ceiling, thought for a moment and said, "There is a deep philosophy in it, do you know the saying, 'I think, therefore I am'?"

Cogito ergo sum……

This is another earth culture.

"Don't fool me with Descartes' words." Ning Yuan pointed to the master controller at the back of his head and said, "With this kind of thing that can change the five senses, thinking is no longer the basis for determining existence."

"Haha, it seems that my brother is very knowledgeable!" Doctor Lin smiled and asked, "Why do you suspect that this world is fake?"

"Then can you prove that this world is real?"

"..."

Dr. Lin was silent.

He suddenly felt that this kid Ning Yuan was a bit tricky.

It stands to reason that a person from the lower district of Braville should not have so much knowledge.

There is almost a state of barbaric growth, and the basic education received by the common people is pitiful.

According to Ning Yuan's files, it is impossible for this kid to have such insight.

The routine has to be changed.

So he said: "I'm sorry, I can't confirm whether this world is real, but as far as I know, there are very few companies that can create a complete virtual world, and they have no way to simulate abilities."

"Exotic land exploration can be done in that game, and supernatural powers can't judge whether the world is real." Ning Yuan said.

"Then... I understand." Dr. Lin smiled: "Sorry, I haven't played this game, I didn't expect the technology to develop to this level, well, let's change the way."

"You said."

"If you are trapped in a virtual world, and the world is very realistic, then you must want something from you." Dr. Lin said: "Think about it, what do you have that other people want?" of?"

"Where do I know where to go?" Ning Yuan replied.

Depend on!
I just play a game and relax myself.

Then he was tricked by Dukarda, and now he is stuck in this situation and cannot extricate himself.

Where do I know why?

He didn't say anything about Dukarta either.

If you really want to say why...

Maybe it's the goddess of fate who loves me very much.

"..." Doctor Lin smiled awkwardly, thought for a while and then said, "Then it's better to increase the entropy value."

"Oh?" Ning Yuan's eyes widened, "Let's hear it."

entropy value.

Second law of thermodynamics.

It sounds like a lot of fun.

"In a virtual system, its information structure must be manufactured according to an orderly structure." Dr. Lin gestured with his hand and said: "The computing power of the equipment for manufacturing the virtual world is limited, as long as we manufacture enough Disturb..."

"Then what if the computing power is infinite?" Ning Yuan asked, he was not sure whether the ancient god, Holy Spirit of Heaven, had his own computing power limit.

"Impossible. Then the entropy will be infinite, and the system will be in chaos." Dr. Lin said with a smile: "As long as your current world is still stable, it means that the computing power will have a limit."

"Oh." Ning Yuan thought for a while, it seemed so.

"So, you just need to increase the entropy value and reach the limit of computing power." Dr. Lin said, "Isn't it a very good choice for you to be an artist now? As long as you have enough fans, the virtual world will definitely collapse. .”

"...The company invited you to be a lobbyist. It's really the right person." Ning Yuan drank the remaining orange juice and said with a smile.

indeed.

Entropy is the degree of chaos in a system.

As long as he keeps disrupting this system, the world will definitely collapse.

Hey, not bad!

Now fans have made mistakes, indicating that the computing power has become abnormal.

If you develop more fans, Dukarda might collapse.

Hehe, he couldn't help but start thinking about it.

In the future, if I develop tens of billions of fans, and then stand on the top of the city and yell at Dukarda as an idiot, the system will definitely collapse.

I get a little excited just thinking about it...

Um, no.

Master Lu's spirit in the sky is watching, and he even burned incense for him.

I won't do things like instigate fans to swear.

Anyway, it's enough to make the system crash.

Hearing Ning Yuan's words, Dr. Lin also laughed. He picked up the orange juice and drank it down, then suddenly said: "Hey, there seems to be something under my buttocks."

After speaking, he put his hand under his buttocks and took out a book.

"Prajna Prajna Gets Rich Sutra".

When he saw this book, Ning Yuan was very surprised. He searched for a book but couldn't find it. How could it be here?

He quickly grabbed the book and quickly flipped through it.

The content of this book is still the same as before, but the words marked with red pen have changed.

After reading the marked text in order, he found a sentence.

"Ability."

Ability?

Ning Yuan suddenly recalled, his own ability, shadow.

Shadow is a bridge that reflects reality.

Yup!

He immediately checked the shadows of the world around him, and then his eyes suddenly went black.

"...Fatal system error! Computing power overload!..."

"...Fatal system error! Synapse meltdown!..."

"...fatal system error! Epilepsy!..."

"...Fatal system error! Nervous shock!..."
