Regarding the many details of his defeat, Christie said he did not want to talk more.
"It's not a glorious thing... Besides, in cyberspace, isn't it normal to be defeated by Theseus' path adjuster who stitched more than a thousand mental models? Comparing multi-threaded information In terms of offense and defense, how many paths are there that can rival this suture monster?"
At this moment, the woman with smoky makeup made herself a lounge chair and changed the setting of the room to a sunny beach. She wore a pair of sunglasses that covered half of her face. After speaking, she picked up the hurricane cup from the side, took a sip of the Pina Colada in the cup, and then continued angrily:
"If you ask me, if you have the ability, just touch it in basic reality. After the 'probability cloud' changes, and he can touch the corner of my clothes, I will consider him a winner... It is no exaggeration to say that in reality, I use 'strong observation' He couldn't stand it even if he glared at him."
Jiang Zhou was speechless as he looked at Christie, who seemed to regard this as a resort. At this moment, he seemed to be very unconvinced.
According to her, the scroll data pad that Charon asked her to bring in could only do this - liberate her previously restrained personality and release part of her computing power.
But since she couldn't beat the opponent at her peak, once she regained her current strength, let alone another fight with that guy, it would be difficult even to protect herself.
Because of this, Christie, who was previously imprisoned here as a computing hardware support, simply chose to do nothing, just enjoy life and relieve his mental pressure.
However, Jiang Zhou kept asking questions and planned to get more information from her - after all, he was somewhat unsure about what he planned to do in the future.
"So, who is the Theseus Path Depth 7 adjuster you mentioned? Also, what are his abilities?"
After being ignored for the first... who knows how many times, Jiang Zhou asked again.
At this moment, Jiang Zhou stood politely under the umbrella next to the lounge chair like a waiter. With that reserved look, it felt like it wouldn't be inappropriate even if he held a large palm leaf in his hand to fan the other person.
Seeing this, Christie straightened her body slightly and used her index finger to hook some sunglasses under the high bridge of her nose.
The two eyes, the brown enough to look real and the bionic eye, and the extremely exaggerated blood-red mechanical eye integrated with various sensors, looked at him.
"You little brat... you're really disappointing. Are you the kind of person who keeps looking at the time to remind her what time it is when you're shopping with your girlfriend? This is really frustrating for women, you know? "
Christie sighed helplessly and said quietly.
In response, Jiang Zhou shrugged:
"You may not believe it, but I have good luck with women... I was the one Romeo was talking about back then in Nord City."
Jiang Zhou said shamelessly against Liao Qi's face.
After all, he was using Liao Qi's stand-in program, and before joining the organization, this punk boy basically changed his girlfriend every three months.
Of course, after becoming a member of Icarus, Liao Qi completely cut off contact with the girls in the past in order not to harm innocent people. But even so, he would be approached every day in the organization, and occasionally a girl from his past would ask him where he was.
"Not much."
Christie stared at Liao Qi's angular face and couldn't help but shook her head.
Well, if we talk about Jiang Zhou, his experience in this area can basically only be described as tragedy... When he went on a first date with the blind date introduced to him by his friend, he chatted with the other person for more than an hour. Topics of network models and deep learning. In the end, because he suddenly thought of a breakthrough point in a certain problem, he slipped back to the laboratory, leaving the woman messy in the wind in the restaurant.
In the end, even the account was settled by the woman. Afterwards, Jiang Zhou recalled what happened and when he planned to transfer the money to the other party, he found that he had already been blocked.
But I don't know if it was because he was disturbed, but Christie put the cup aside and sat up. The cup and the recliner instantly turned into data streams and disappeared. She put down her bangs to cover the mechanical eye, and then said:
"Let me talk about the conclusion first... you and me, plus the cracking program Charon asked you to bring in. Putting us together is not even enough for the other party to use half of the strength, understand? The adjuster of Theseus Path Depth 7 is in the abyss In the dark web, its strength is unrivaled at the same level."
"So, why is it invincible?"
Jiang Zhou asked.
Christie sighed and said:
"When Theseus's path reaches depth 6, you can scan and upload the digital personality of your own puppet, and use it as a puppet that can be continuously reborn for remote control - the avatar program has immortality, which is the case when other people's paths reach depth 7. It's something that can only be done reluctantly.
"Of course, for those people in Narcissus Plain who have not updated their apoptosis programs, this is nothing. But on the other hand, being able to have thousands of mental models at the same time means that that guy can use hundreds of mental models at the same time. Thinking mode to think about countermeasures to solve problems. When attacking, he can also come up with hundreds of different attack plans.
"Therefore, even if I am equal in computing power to the other party, the other party's weird and changeable algorithm has also caused me great trouble."
In this regard, Jiang Zhou asked with some confusion:
"In that case, this ability will not disappear even in the basic reality, right? Why do you keep emphasizing that he is invincible in the Abyss Dark Web?"
Christie replied:
"That's because in reality, no matter how many plans he has, he can only use his own body to implement one plan in the end. It's not like in cyberspace, where everything comes in an instant."
Then, she paused and continued:
"In a sense, the other party has already gone astray on the path of Theseus. Generally speaking, adjusters of the path of Theseus will not upload the digital personalities of their puppets. Because this means that the puppets will Brain death, causing them to lose those puppets. Generally speaking, most of them will train several adjusters who are also on the 'Theseus Path' to upgrade to depth 3, as their own exquisite puppets, so that they can upload their own digital personality."
Hearing this, Jiang Zhou immediately thought of Ye Qian - after the other party knew that he was suffering from radiation sickness, he gave himself the code name "Theseus" and quickly arranged for him to adjust and transform the promotion path of the same name.
Now it seems that he planned to make himself into a "refined puppet" that could sneak into the abyss and dark web in the form of a digital personality?
Without noticing that Jiang Zhou was deep in thought, Christie continued:
"But the 'Dionysus Bureau' guy has completely given up... or in other words, temporarily given up on development in the base reality, and instead focused on improving his own scale in cyberspace. He probably wants to manage both sides of this. Where there is no place to go, accumulate your own strength until it truly becomes a natural disaster that can cause the 'collapse of human intelligence'."
The collapse of human intelligence...
The other party's words reminded Jiang Zhou of something.
"Have you ever heard of the concept of an 'intellectual collapse scenario'?"
Christie asked, probably seeing the change in Jiang Zhou's expression.
Jiang Zhou nodded first, then shook his head:
"I just heard that it seems that Theseus' path is a possibility that will lead to this..."
"Theseus, Sisyphus, Typhon, Dionysus..."
Christie interrupted Jiang Zhou. She was counting the names of the paths and plucking her fingers. However, she stopped halfway and said directly:
"There are a total of nine upgrade paths, leading to a future where human intelligence can completely collapse. This is not just the extinction of the human species - extinction is just a prerequisite. The collapse scenario of human intelligence is a critical issue for the human species. Denial of existence, they deny the basis of human evolution so far, deny the rationality of human existence, and ultimately prove that human beings are not suitable to live in this universe...
"To reshape civilization into a better form, each of us has to accept the extinction of mankind. You have seen what that guy did before, right? The vast majority of people in the City of Sages choose voluntarily Join and become one of them.”
"But, they don't..."
Jiang Zhou said.
In his opinion, the city's cancer-like existence is really difficult to associate with the word "excellence."
"Amend it, it's 'what they think is excellent'... After the headquarters of the Holy Trinity Church was destroyed by Jupiter's 'Big Thunder', most of the remaining people in the church began to think in extreme ways. "
Maybe it was because they couldn't see the possibility of shaking the "Order of Olympus", so they simply chose to use the method of overturning the table.
At least, that's what Christie thinks. And she went on to say that even if the Order of Olympus is a piece of shit, it does not mean that they are not. There is no need for them to compare the two pieces of shit to see which piece of shit is smellier.
"So, the other party's name is 'Bacchus Bureau'?"
Jiang Zhou asked in surprise.
"This is what he called me before he locked me up here... He said that from the time he started to integrate it into his own mental model and merged it with other mental models, the so-called name has no meaning. Everyone All we have is identity - identity is irreplaceable, and name is just a bubble phantom. That's the only way..."
…………
"That's the only way..."
Dionysian Bureau, a mental model database.
You said so.
A total of one thousand and thirty mental data are stored here, because these personalities are pure data and have no hardware support. Therefore, the storage of these mental models requires you to provide computing power.
Not only the storage of mental models, but also the interaction between all the citizens in the City of Sages, and the replicas that serve the citizens, also requires you to provide computing power.
From this perspective, splitting the complex large social structure into small social units with each citizen as the core will undoubtedly greatly reduce the need for computing power and enable the city to operate more stably. Keep operating.
Only those citizens are required to produce products that can optimize the algorithm and enhance their own strength. You can go to other cities in Narcissus Plain to grab computing power, and then this system can feed you back.
Keep expanding and becoming stronger.
When the Narcissus Plains are unified, the next step is the World Wide Web, then the base reality, and finally a humble return to the Abyss Dark Web. Climb to the top of the road to ascension, go to the highest heaven, and meet the god created by human beings themselves.
You calculate this.
"That's the only way..."
Because you thought of something, you said this to the empty room where no one existed.
If the model's database is visualized, here is a solemn and solemn monster statue. It looks like a cross between a beluga whale and a crocodile, but with a human head with a crown.
If you zoom in even more, you will find that the monster is made up of countless people. Each of them opened their mouths like an impressionist painting, allowing countless different voices to intertwine, and finally uttered a simple word.
"eternal."
Thousands of people.
Thousands of people make up your will and gather your voice.
And the tens of millions and billions of people who will be assimilated in the future will become your will in the future.
"That's the only way..."
You repeated again.
"Only can I take them along the centuries-old path of the Son of God, step on the edge of the ladder, be with the Holy Spirit, and achieve eternity in the mercy of the Holy Father."
Then, you receive a message.
The wanderer who refused to join you before, the newcomer. He seems to have figured it out now. He is willing to activate his password and take out the source code of his soul.
Just because...
He also wants to achieve eternity.
Just because...
He wants to be you too.
