Looking at Lao Li with a face full of "I'm still a baby", Feng Xue had the urge to take out a filter. After all, instead of looking at this old face looking cute, cutting him a virtual leather cover would at least make him look more comfortable.
Of course, this was just an idea. After a few seconds of awkward silence, he changed the subject and said:
"Then let's talk about other questions, such as why the real things I brought back from other worlds turned into fake ones?"
"Oh? This is really rare."
When Lao Li heard what Feng Xue said, his face immediately showed some curiosity, and he immediately asked:
"Did it become a fake in Infinite City, or did it become a fake in the real world?"
"Although I haven't checked all of them in Infinite City, considering that some of them are still real in Infinite City, they should have become fake in the real world." Feng Xue said in an ambiguous tone. When Lao Li heard this, he nodded. Nodding:
"Although this is relatively rare, it is still a common situation. Well, it is a bit confusing to say this. Anyway, you should pay attention to it in the future. If there is a real thing that becomes a fake after getting it from Infinite City, it means that the world and Infinite City has just been connected, and the flow of rules is not yet complete. Try not to use the power of that world in a world other than the native world. Of course, illusions can be used."
"According to what you say, the real thing in the world becomes fake because of imperfect circulation of rules?" Feng Xue reacted quickly and asked immediately.
Hearing this, Lao Li also nodded:
"That's it. Although they are collectively called fakes, there are still some subtle classifications. However, these classifications have little to do with ordinary things or even ghost stories, so although there is such a statement, it has no practical significance. .”
At this point, when Lao Li saw that Feng Xue didn't speak, he immediately explained:
"Fakes can be roughly divided into two types, one is a fake from the beginning, and the other is a fake later."
"How to say?"
Feng Xue originally had some guesses about the generation of fakes, but when she heard that there were things that were fakes from the beginning, she immediately became curious.
"There are many, many worlds in this world, but they can be roughly divided into two categories, the base world and the fantasy world. The base world is a world that evolves and is produced by natural factors. As for how it evolves, no one knows. You think of it as Something similar to an axiom will suffice. Of course, some people say that the so-called reference world is also someone else's fantasy world, but this is just like a brain in a vat. There is no possibility of falsification, and there is no point in discussing it.
"The so-called fantasy world is a world constructed by weaving together information born in the base world. Because in order to achieve the amount of information to build a fantasy world, it usually requires a civilization in the practical sense, so you can also combine fantasy The world is regarded as a world derived from the fantasy of intelligent creatures in the standard world.”
Listening to Lao Li's answer, Feng Xue thought for a while and found that it was somewhat similar to the theory often used when writing in his previous life. He said with a subtle expression:
"In other words, if I write a book, the information in it will build a fantasy world?"
"It's possible, but not necessarily." Old Li shook his head and said:
"No matter how small a fantasy world is, the amount of information required is huge. Unless it is a world famous book, it is almost impossible to build a fantasy world with one work. But on the other hand, if many people are based on a certain Created according to a default rule, or by coincidence, works with similar underlying structures are created. The information generated by these works will become entangled, eventually generating a fantasy world, and sometimes even between the two base worlds, some Ideas that happen to be synchronized due to coincidence can also become entangled, creating a common fantasy world between the two worlds.”
"Well, that is to say, a blockbuster work does not have enough information, but a series of works based on a shared setting can? For example, a fantasy based on a sword and magic structure, it is possible to jointly build a fantasy world with fantasy rules? Or a series of works based on a shared setting? After having a large number of fans, is it possible to create a fantasy world based on this setting?"
When Feng Xue said this, what appeared in her mind was not "Naruto World", "Pirate World", nor "Secret World", "Infinite Flow World", but "The World of Carp". After all, the influence of a work No matter how limited it is, astringency will always be a common emotion, and if there was a fantasy world based on the rules of Lifan and Dongguo action movies, what kind of scenery would it be like?
Lao Li obviously didn't know what Feng Xue was thinking. He just nodded calmly, then changed his tone and said:
"So, how do you think the fakes and real things in the landfill of Infinite City are distinguished?"
"Ah this..." Unexpectedly, Lao Li suddenly asked such a question. Feng Xue was stunned for a long time before speaking out the guess based on Lao Li's previous answer——
"What comes from the standard world is the real thing, and what comes from the fantasy world is fake?"
"That's okay." Lao Li's answer was a bit ambiguous. He paused for a moment, as if he was organizing his words. It wasn't until a new pot of hot water boiled that he made new tea and said:
"Let's put it this way, do you think a fantasy world can become a baseline world?"
"It should...be possible, right?" Feng Xue was not sure, but according to what Lao Li said, it should be possible.
"The answer is yes and no." Lao Li's words were like a riddle. Feng Xue almost wanted to punch him and make him reorganize his language. However, Lao Li did not show off. After saying nonsense, he immediately Just give an explanation——
"You who have seen so many doors should also understand that real people and matter in the real world will be transformed into information after entering the Infinite City, and after they leave, they will turn back into 'matter'. Since information and matter can Transform each other, so what is the difference between the standard world built with matter and the fantasy world built with information?”
"Then why do you say it can't be done?" Feng Xue frowned. As far as this theory is concerned, even the weird story of Infinite City, which is parasitic on a planet in the benchmark world, can complete the conversion of information and matter. Why should the fantasy world Can’t become the material world?
"Because there is not enough information." Lao Li's answer was simple and direct -
"It's like the two islands have enough technology to build a cross-sea bridge between them, but in fact they can't do it because the combined materials on the two islands are not enough to consume the bridge.
"In the same way, although data can be converted into matter, the amount required is too great. The information overflowed from one or two worlds is simply not enough to make a fantasy world a benchmark world."
"In other words, the difference between the real thing and the fake thing also lies in the amount of information? But this is not right. If it is just like this, there is no reason that the real thing can be eaten but the fake thing cannot!"
