Chapter 799 Hardcore Pilot No. 2

In fact, the moment Pilot Two opened his mouth, Duncan had already noticed that the state of the "God of Wisdom" was very different from that of the Storm Goddess - this was not due to the "pollution" displayed by its host array. The state lies in the fact that it remains "awake" like this.

Duncan did not hide his curiosity: "We have already seen Gemona. She sealed her 'death' and 'rot' in a temple to prevent erosion inside the sanctuary. I thought you were all similar. situation, but it seems that your situation is different now?”

"We are all facing similar problems - decay and corrosion are spreading in our 'existence'," a buzzing tremor came from the central host, "It's just that our methods of delaying this process are different.

"As the 'matrix' of the world, Gemona was under the greatest pressure, so she had to choose the extreme method of 'splitting herself in two'. Tarijin's method was to sleep in the fire and imprison herself. In a closed-loop dream to delay decay, Bartok built a prison for himself, a borderless wilderness from which he could never leave...

"As for me, I am probably the most special one of all - as you can see, I am just a machine made by mortals. It's just that the Great Annihilation gave me the characteristics of life, death and corruption, so in order to fight against it, I The solution is 'iteration'."

The lights of the central host flashed, and Duncan was surprised after hearing these words: "Iteration?"

"I am now on the v16.08.102-beta version," Pilot Two said calmly and seriously. Then he probably noticed the subtle expression on Duncan's face and patiently explained, "The number in the front is the generation, and the middle is the large version. No., the number at the end is a minor version update, the beta version is because I just updated my lighting driver not long ago, but it is still unstable - those lighting effects that are constantly flashing on the surface of the secondary server, now they can be customized in 4096 ways. Define group flashing.”

After it explained, the expression on Duncan's face became more subtle: "..."

After two or three seconds of silence, Duncan finally couldn't help but tremble at the corner of his mouth: "I thought those lights were important status indicators..."

"I can tell myself whether my status is good or not, or an external monitoring unit can output a signal - of course, that was when my creators were still there, and now no one will come to check my running status. ," Pilot 2 didn't seem to notice the change in Duncan's tone, still maintaining a calm and serious attitude, "As for those lights, they were 'added' by one of my creators after I was born."

It paused for a moment, and the buzz in the central host rose and fell.

"I still can't understand his intention of doing this, but he seemed to think it was important. I still remember his happy expression after seeing me learn to 'flicker', so I have been studying more 'flicker' seriously over the years. ’, no matter how many iterations of the version, I kept those lights.”

Behind the central host, the lights on the surface of a series of secondary servers standing like tombstones flickered, and the flickering light spots were like shining stars.

Duncan suddenly recalled the scene he saw in the deep sea, and recalled the countless lights of unknown meaning on the surface of the Deep Saint-Pilot One's body that grew as large as a mountain due to continuous growth.

Alice's eyes widened slightly. She looked happily at the small flashing lights on Pilot 2's body, and couldn't help but exclaim softly: "It's so beautiful!"

"Yes, they are very beautiful. This is probably their function." Pilot 2 said softly.

At this moment, Morris, who had been quiet for a long time, finally couldn't help but speak. He had been restraining his overly excited mood, and only now found the opportunity to speak: "So, you relied on 'iteration' to delay The process of 'rotting' yourself... But I don't quite understand what you mean by 'iteration'..."

The red light above Pilot 2 deflected slightly, and it seemed to have its "eyes" on Morris, while a gentle trembling sound sounded from its body:

"The body is fragile, but knowledge lasts forever - so only the continuous transformation and transformation of the self can carry those eternal truths..."

Roars and tremors suddenly came from all directions, and countless large and small shadows on the distant sea began to shake in the mist. Morris hurriedly looked around in shock. The next second, he saw a scene that he would never forget——

Those countless black crystal clusters standing on the calm sea are gradually "blooming", like the crystals in the blade jungle peeling off and cracking, and from the depths of those crystal clusters, many outlines that could only be seen vaguely before are revealed - that There are countless huge black hosts that look like tombstones.

They are criss-crossed and buried in crystal clusters and seawater. Many of them have shown severe distortions and distortions. The remains of metal and flesh are piled up, and the eyestalks and nerve cords of death are wrapped around the server host. Due to some huge The shell that was damaged by external force exposed the internal structure that had long been unrecognizable, and the spaces between the slots and the panels were filled with proliferating biological tissue.

Those "mountains" of crystal clusters that appear to be spectacular and mysterious throughout the entire sea area are actually countless tombs!

"Those are all the old versions of 'me'," Pilot 2's voice suddenly sounded, finally waking Morris up from his huge astonishment. The voice of the "God of Wisdom" seemed to always be like that, "Every time Version iterations will produce such waste.”

Morris turned around, but there was still great shock on his face.

Lucretia, who was not far away, was equally shocked - when she set out, she had already been mentally prepared to face the ancient god, and even the remains of the ancient god, and actually saw it in the palace of the Storm Goddess. The huge remains of the ancient god, but even with her extreme imagination, she never imagined that she would see this... a scene where the corpses of the ancient god piled up like a mountain!

"This iteration method... is amazing." Even Duncan was a little confused at this time. The scene in front of him was obviously not what he had imagined when he heard Pilot 2 say the word "iteration", "The version in my mind Upgrading is not such a big battle..."

"Yes, the movement will indeed be loud," Pilot Two said calmly, "Every time the version is upgraded, I have to find a way to deal with the old version of myself, but very occasionally, the new version will be unable to win. , then the upgrade will fail and a version rollback will occur - but I usually prepare more alternative upgrade plans. Once the upgrade fails, the alternative plan will be activated, and then multiple new versions will beat the old version together, and finally it will be able to The upgrade was successful..."

Duncan: "...?"

Is the "system upgrade" process of Pilot 2 a bit too hardcore? ! Co-authoring is a physical upgrade, a true "hardware update", right?

However, when Duncan had a question mark on his face, Maurice and Lucretia next to him lost their initial expressions of astonishment. Even Nina beside him nodded thoughtfully and whispered. Muttered: "The teacher did say that a strong body and a will like a duelist are indispensable on the road to exploring the truth..."

Morris looked pleased when he heard this: "The process of chasing each other with knowledge is the process of fighting. You already understand this truth."

After hearing this, Shirley couldn't help but murmured in a low voice: "Then I'm pretty good at fighting, and I don't have any knowledge in my head..."

Agou immediately emerged from the shadow at her feet and muttered: "Your situation is different. Knowledge cannot catch up with you..."

Alice looked at Pilot 2, then looked back and forth between Morris, Shirley and Agou. She didn't know if she understood the current topic, but just smiled to herself.

Fanna, who was standing at the stern of the boat, folded her arms upon seeing this, shook her head helplessly and sighed.

Duncan suddenly felt a little subtle. His eyes glanced between Shirley and Alice (and at the same time glanced at Vanna who was shaking her head and sighing), and a series of strange associations inevitably appeared in his mind -

In this world, scholars chase knowledge, and knowledge chases mortals like beasts. However, for the followers around him, the situation always seems to be a little wrong - knowledge cannot catch up with Shirley, but it can catch up with Alice. But I couldn't find a place to get into Miss Doll's head. As for Vanna...

Fanna is amazing. She probably mastered knowledge to death in the year she graduated from sports school.

Duncan shook his head vigorously and quickly shook out the increasingly outrageous associations in his mind.

Then he raised his head and his eyes fell on Pilot Two again.

Now he finally figured out one thing - he knew where the scholars in this world came from with such fierce painting styles.

The dangerous environment may not only be part of the reason, but the God of Wisdom's physical upgrade by opening his own brain may be the root cause...

Pilot 2 also lowered its "eyes" at this moment. It seemed to have discovered something. The red light shining from above the central host moved slowly on the boat where Duncan was, and then finally stopped on Agou.

"...This dog head looks familiar."

Agou was startled for a moment, as if he suddenly recalled some past events, he immediately shrank his neck and hid behind Shirley.

Shirley also reacted immediately and quickly reached out to grab the chain near Agou's neck. She then raised her head and looked nervously at the weird "god" in front of her.

"Don't be so nervous," Pilot 2 saw this scene and made a gentle voice, "You are already here, and you don't have to worry about any force separating you - I was just a little surprised. What happened on Pilot 1 Among those defective offspring... there will be such a special individual."

Its red light gradually became brighter, and there was finally a slight change in its tone.

That's curiosity.

"What happened to you?"

it asked softly.
