Ascension journey - 96. Chapter 96 Agents and Designers

After letting the others leave the field, the gray-haired old man turned his hand over the experimental report made by Cheng Bin again, frowning and looking at Cheng Bin deeply.

Under normal circumstances, the old man who can read the meaning of the experiment report should be confused about the current situation and Cheng Bin’s purpose.

Cheng Bin just used the instruments in the advanced laboratory to verify a very simple thing-

In reality, although the communication technology of intelligent programs is advanced, it does not extend much beyond the inner domain in essence.

In this case, it takes a certain amount of time to transform the input and output of sensory signals and control signals in the training cabin. After all, they must be connected to a higher-level server to exchange information with other people in the virtual world through the processing of the server.

So as long as there is a sufficient level of experimental equipment, and only a very simple experimental verification is required, a weird thing can be discovered-there is a small delay in the contact and communication between people and things in this world.

It is impossible for an intelligent program to conceal this flaw in the operation of the virtual world-to conceal a lie requires more lies, and this objective problem is the more concealed, the more weird it is. Any experiment that delves into the material rules of the virtual world , As long as the accuracy reaches a certain level, similar weird phenomena will inevitably be found.

If you want to block this kind of high-tech research and precision industry problems, smart programs will inevitably choose to affect people who may be aware of this problem, or directly replace any research and manufacturers who are qualified to come into contact with this objective flaw with the program. ——The latter can be much easier and more enjoyable.

With various thoughts in his heart, Cheng Bin was looking at the frowning old man, but in a flash, something unexpected happened.

The figure and face of the old man sitting at the table were suddenly distorted and transformed into another image in a blink of an eye-a short, dark yellow hair is an expressionless square face, wearing a white shirt, a black suit, and a black tie. Wearing black sunglasses, there is a white headset hanging on the right ear.

This image and way of appearance… is the protective program “agents” of those virtual worlds in the movie…

The still-faced Cheng Bin thought in his heart-it seems that it is not just Zion. All the cutting-edge researchers in this virtual world are disguised by intelligent programs, so they can be directly replaced by agents possessed.

The agent at the table smiled at Cheng Bin. He raised his hand holding the experiment report, took out a lighter and lit the document, and the report was incinerated into ashes in a blink of an eye.

Throwing away the lighter, the agent put his right hand on the left side of the table and pulled, and the thick wooden table fixed on the ground was pushed aside along with the bolts of Bengfei. He slowly walked to Cheng Bin, who was imprisoned in a small chair. He drew the pitch-black pistol from his arms and placed it on Cheng Bin’s forehead, bent over and stared into Cheng Bin’s eyes through the sunglasses and slowly asked, “Who are you?”

“It seems that you have noticed the abnormality of my virtual body… Me, I am a mortal who is curious.” Cheng Bin smiled and stood up, and at the moment when the iron torture was broken, the agent held the gun with one hand broken. Kicked his wrist on his stomach.

The agent who was kicked by Cheng Bin pulled out a phantom and smashed it on the wall opposite Cheng Bin. The cement wall cracked into countless long cracks, and half of the agent’s body was embedded in the wall.

“This twentieth-century virtual world’matrix’ will actually open this level of data control authority to all humans, although there are fewer people who can deepen their thinking to this level…and you, as the defender of this virtual world The protective cleanup program actually operates with the same inefficient human template. I’m very curious about the reason behind this.”

When perception and control crossed the level of the smallest muscle fibers, Cheng Bin touched the underlying attributes of the human program object. In this virtual world where data permissions are far more open than Zion, the ability has far surpassed Dia’s mouth. The extent to which consciousness distorts reality.

While speaking, he caught the pistol falling from the air and looked at it. Cheng Bin walked to the sunken wall and looked at the agent who slowly adjusted his body and stood up after taking the dust off his suit. He continued playing with the black pistol. Said: “…so I want to meet your superior, the designer behind the virtual world. I wonder if you can satisfy my curiosity and recommend me?”

The agent who stood up straight moved his shoulders and neck expressionlessly. Accompanied by the sound of bone rubbing, the door of the interrogation room opened sharply, and several figures dressed almost identical to those of the agent walked in.

Cheng Bin blew a whistle and was about to do a big fight, but saw the eager agents suddenly stop.

The foremost agent raised his hand and pressed the headset he was wearing, then smiled at Cheng Bin and nodded, and stretched out his hand in the direction of the door. The pathway comes.

……

A pure white room, except for the screens on the surrounding walls that flashed and switched screens, there was almost no clean room with a trace of variegated colors.

In the center of this room, an upright old man with silver-white hair and thick beard, dressed in a pure white suit, sat on a chair that did not look like a real object with his legs folded. He looked at the young man who walked in through the door and said:

“Introduce myself. I am the builder and manager of this virtual world. You can call me a’designer’… I thought that the next one to come here would be the sixth-generation savior, but I didn’t expect one to come. A completely unfamiliar existence.”

Cheng Bin, who entered the room, glanced at the door door disappearing behind him. He scanned around and found that the surrounding walls made up of countless small screens were showing images of various past lives of his current virtual body. What’s interesting is that, On part of the screen, he also saw some images of Clayton in Zion.

“Are you accidental?” The old man shook his head when he found Cheng Bin was observing Clayton’s image. For smart programs that observe the world with data, this is as striking as a torch in the dark.”

“So I was not surprised to be discovered by you,” Cheng Bin smiled faintly, sitting in the air as soon as his buttocks fell back, and also raised Erlang’s legs. “If it weren’t for discovering my peculiarities, you How could it be so easy for me to see it?”

The old man was surprised and showed a look of careful observation, then nodded and said: “By fixing the coordinate properties of some of the pants fabric to achieve the effect of the air chair, I am surprised by your understanding and control of the world’s program objects.”

“Do you really have the emotion of’surprise’? I don’t quite understand why your series of intelligent programs are shown in anthropomorphic images…” Cheng Bin spread his hands to the old man, “Ah, let’s not talk about this. , Why do you want to give ordinary people like me the authority to control the virtual world?”

“This is an incidental exploration, exploring the changes that occur when humans’ unique thinking algorithms consciously access control program data. We look forward to exploring some rules of transformation between human intelligence and program operation in this process, although we have gained so far. Very few…” The designer sighed, then raised his hand and nodded at Cheng Bin, “… Besides, this kind of authority can be withdrawn at any time, just like this.”

The underlying data of Cheng Bin’s virtual body was changed in an instant, and he suddenly lost the perception and operation authority of the virtual body that was open to ordinary people for the deep data level.

In this virtual world, the designer is in control of almost all changes in authority. Cheng Bin, who was deprived of authority, should have fallen to the ground.

But the old man who stretched out his finger suddenly stopped moving, because he found that Cheng Bin, who had lost his authority, was still sitting steadily in the air, with his right hand supporting an invisible armrest supporting his head, and Erlang’s legs swaying slightly in the air…
