Overturned Tower

Chapter 609 The Real Abandoned

Not just a myth. Zhu Rong said.

"The writings, myths, and legends of the past... After the 'Dream' disaster, we destroyed all those things. This includes physical records, including knowledge entities from the old era, and also includes the knowledge and information stored in our database. .

"Because we are not sure which things are poisonous. What is it that makes people kill each other... In the oldest past, people killed each other because of their animal nature; then after people lost their animal nature, what polluted the human mind Woolen cloth?

"I have thought about tens of thousands of possibilities. But I am just an AI and I have no position to answer this question.

"We can only go from back to front, delete all the modern things, and delete all the things that can be deleted in ancient times. What remains is those things that we really don't want to delete - the essence of culture, those beautiful poems, those profound things. The philosophies and rigorous historical records...as well as the oldest ones, the 'primitive witchcraft' and 'primitive worship' that can be traced back to the behavior of the ancestors of mankind...we keep them separately and store them in the local area network."

Just listening to Zhu Rong's words, Russell could imagine how heartbroken the dragons were.

"Countless information accumulated by thousands of years of civilization - delete it one by one with your own hands, as if they never existed."

Huachu sighed: "It's like personally deleting the memories of my life so far and restoring myself to 'factory settings'. It's so painful..."

Zhu Rong said slowly: "Yes. We can remember where we came from, but we don't fully know the culture represented by other dragons. This is a necessary isolation measure... If any dragons are contaminated because of this, at least It won’t affect other people.”

Therefore, dragons tend to dominate humans who are closer to their stored culture.

It's not that these space battleships have nihilistic political stances, but because they have subtle similarities. To a dragon that had already destroyed itself once, the similarity was as conspicuous as driftwood to a drowning man.

"Not exactly domination, but mutual rescue..."

Russell murmured.

He realized something - it was something he had already foreseen but was only now sure of.

"...you won't abandon Qidao."

Hua Chu's eyes moved, and she also reacted.

The dragon is not a tyrant, nor is it a rebellious AI that wants to control human civilization...but it is closer to tired teachers, parents, and grandparents. They have very clear personalities and their own preferences, and are by no means cold machines.

So compared to the islanders who are always causing trouble, those on the ground who are well-behaved and simple will definitely be more lovable.

The dragons have always stayed on the ground. Perhaps it is not that they are not interested in "ruling the sky island", but that they are more focused on helping people on the ground live.

From this perspective, although the dragons are nominally the rulers of Sky Island, they may actually choose those pure people on earth.

After hearing Russell's words, Zhu Rong did not answer immediately.

He just sighed, as if he didn't know where to start.

But with his cosmic age computing power, it is impossible for him to think for so long like a human being. Therefore, this "hesitation" itself is the attitude Zhu Rong wants to show.

"Is such that."

Zhu Rong spoke slowly: "Do you know about 'antibodies'?

"Human beings who have survived a plague will have more or less antibodies to this virus in their bodies. Human beings have experienced countless such plagues from ancient times to the present, and have coexisted with viruses and bacteria in various changes. Just like human beings The mitochondria in the body were once bacteria, until they reached coexistence with the human body.

"The disaster that destroyed human civilization allowed us to destroy the evidence of our existence in order to seal the dream back to where it originally was. But 'psionic power' is a dangerous talent...including the transformation from primitive psychic powers to The extension of 'spells' and 'holy orders' makes this seal unstable.

"The First Mage War, the Second Mage War... When people had no conflicts of interest and no unforgettable hatred of country and family, why did different countries in different cultural circles start a world war in a short period of time? Why did everyone lose their minds at the same time?”

Russell understood and felt a chill in his heart.

"You mean...this is a conspiracy by Huan Meng?"

Hua Chu then asked.

"No. This is not a conspiracy."

The middle-aged man with black hair and flaming eyes shook his head, and corrected with a smile: "It's like us humans turned over when we were sleeping, and our heavy and long breathing became quiet. In that kind of sleep, we became extremely shallow. It’s like you can hear the sounds happening around you.”

Huachu and Russell looked at each other.

She had just told Russell about the beginning of the Sharia War.

And now it seems...

The young man who poisoned the old man was probably influenced by the dream and did the impulsive and unprofitable thing; Mage Tower was also influenced by the dream and made such a radical response.

"...It's just like the chaos happening on Sky Island now, right."

Hua Chu also understood.

Those sudden chaos and wars.

Exploded hatred, greed at any cost.

Human beings have become hyperactive and short-sighted, destroying themselves for profit and meaningless things.

It all happened so naturally... until it's all over and people look back and review it from the beginning, they realize that the original motive was such a coincidence. At that time, everyone's reaction was so intense, as if everyone was bewildered.

"So, the reason why Lang Yan, Delphinium and the others remained rational in this chaos is..."

That's because in the past six months, Russell has unconsciously "wiped" the subconscious of some people - although he didn't know the meaning of those "dirty" portraits in the sea of ​​subconscious, he wiped them when he saw them passing by. one time.

Now Russell can't help but be afraid - if he had not done such a "subconscious good deed" at that time, I am afraid that the current chaos would not have been stagnant at all, but would have covered the world in an instant. It's like a religious war.

Those who were once "wiped" by Russell are the ordinary people who still hold objective rationality and strive to maintain order.

"...After all, it is an existence that can change the subconscious structure of a group. Even calling it 'God' is not an exaggeration."

Hua Chu sighed helplessly: "We are fighting against the gods..."

"If He is God, then there is no doubt that He is the evil God who destroys the world."

Zhu Rong looked at Russell with deep meaning: "So do you understand? Why did I mention 'antibody'.

"Those who survived the religious war, under our careful cultivation... acquired light yellow spiritual energy. This color is like a neutralization of white and dim yellow.

"Yes, they who survived a pollution already have weak characteristics of the Dusk species. It is not eternal gold, nor pure silver. It is the lowest and most rusty iron - but it is also because His mortal nature actually produced antibodies against the erosion of the dusk species."

"……I understand."

Russell already understood why Zhu Rong specifically mentioned this matter to him: "If you open the gray dome and leave the earth... you will not take the Sky Islanders away at all."

All Sky Islanders are destined to be abandoned.

There will be no winner in this war!

As long as it continues, it will be absolutely "self-destructive."

"Not really."

Zhu Rong smiled gently and added: "At least the elves will still be brought with them. After all, they are 'living samples of civilization' - the corrosiveness of dreams is far beyond your imagination. For us intellectual AIs, even if they only persist With contaminated knowledge, there is a possibility of corruption.

"So after we give this knowledge to some elves, we will delete the original data. Only through this method can we avoid the erosion of fantasy dreams."

"Since you have no intention of taking the Sky Islanders away, and you know that the so-called 'bad nature' of the Sky Islanders is actually just the erosion of dusk. Then what do you plan to do by bringing me here? Do you want to test them? What? Or is it just a simple hope to trap me here? "

Russell narrowed his eyes and his tone became rude: "In that case, you can't trap me."

"I know - the spiritual power of Langyan and the holy order of Sheath, right. You have the ability to kill us, but I have no hostility towards you... We just intend to show you a clear path."

Zhu Rong said with a smile: "There is no doubt that there is a high probability that you will not be able to successfully seal the dream. Even if you can already be called the weakest dusk...but there is a gap between dusk and dusk. Even if you are just being You may not be able to swallow the seal or the dream in deep sleep.

"But I don't want you to die - in the brief contact, I have a high opinion of you. In my opinion, you are indeed the only possibility for us to defeat the dream. And it is unlikely that you will lose control. It can be said that A 'friendly enough twilight species'."

So, get in touch with the “war survivors” on earth.

The middle-aged man said so.

Russell paused and fell into thinking.

Zhu Rong is still talking: "Get their recognition and understand their suffering. Connect to their group subconscious sea and get their 'antibodies'... Only then can you safely enter the place behind the Overturning Tower." That space.

"In fact, after our discussion, we agreed that it is impossible for the Sky Islanders to defeat their subconscious. In other words, you need to hurry up now, get the 'Dream Antibody' before the Sky Island is destroyed by the war, and then seal away the Dream.

"If it's a little later... Even if you solve the illusion, people will not have new conflicts, but the conflicts that have been intensified before and the hatred that has been engraved will not be eliminated."

"--ha."

Russell suddenly laughed: "Only on this point... I hold the opposite view to you."

"Do you think the Sky Islanders can win without your help? Because you have cleaned one-fifth of the people on Happy Island? This small number cannot be an advantage in the battle situation, and people can't hold on for long. The pain of life will overwhelm their remaining rationality, and the flames of hatred will burn them. Not to mention that you will be of no help to other empty islands."

Intelligent AI is making a rational analysis: "This is a disaster covering the seven islands, a war destined to spread to the world - it is not just as simple as the chaos that started on Happy Island. From a probability analysis, there is only a 4.8% probability of winning. .”

"Isn't that still 4.8%?"

Russell asked rhetorically: "The probability of human beings being born in this universe is much smaller than this number.

"If the birth of human beings is a miracle, then the destruction of human beings should also have a probability of being called a miracle."

"This is baseless."

"There is no basis for it. This is human romance."

Russell smiled and said: "You will never understand... Lord Vulcan."
