First Player - Chapter 799
Chapter 799 Chapter 798 · “Grandmother Paradox, Klein Bottle, Cosmic Program Theory (Part 1
Under the sun, the wheelchair landed on a tall tower.
Su Mingan knew this tall tower. It is located in the central area of Doomsday City. It is a landscape building, and there are not many people on weekdays.
But when Actor read a code, the scene of the tower changed drastically.
Water-like snow-white brilliance emerged in the air, as if a layer of transparent veil was slowly lifted, and countless white data streams of 0 and 1 suddenly jumped out around the tower. Akto walked into the tower, followed by Su Mingan, as if he had entered a pure white space, and every step under his feet had pure white ripples.
This feeling is very similar to returning to the world of the main god, surrounded by endless white light.
“This is…?” Su Mingan said.
“The entrance of the dawn system, you can understand it as the center console of the two-dimensional world.” Actor said.
A white table and two chairs rise from the ground.
“Please sit down.” Akto was polite, surrounded by snow-white streams of data, like blooming flowers.
Even if it’s just AI, Su Mingan can feel Akto’s temperament from him, which is a kind of temperament that is gentle to everything in the world and extremely stable. Sensibility and rationality are well matched, and they are equally charming.
Su Mingan sat down in a chair, and a cup of tea automatically appeared on the white round table in front of him.
“What kind of tea do you like to drink?” Actor put his finger on the side of the teapot.
“Can conjure anything?” Su Mingan said.
“Of course, only here.” Actor said.
“Coffee.” Su Mingan said.
He doesn’t want to drink tea anymore.
Actor smiled, moved his fingers slightly, and a steaming cup of coffee appeared in front of Su Mingan.
“Su Ming’an, now you have signed a ‘civilization bet’ with the gods. If you fail to restart the dawn system within 20 days, he will obtain the source of your civilization.” Akto said.
“Yes. At that time, he used to guide me to victory in the war as a bargaining chip, so I had to agree to him.” Su Mingan took a sip of coffee.
He and Akto sat face to face in this pure white space, surrounded by flowing data streams, for a moment, there was a posture of two civilization representatives talking.
His dark pupils reflected snow-white brilliance, and Aktor’s dark gray pupils also reflected him.
“But this bargaining chip is one of the goals of the gods. This bet, the gods will never lose.” Akto said: “It is useless to say this now. This bet is harmful to you, and I will help you.” You lift.”
“The civilized bet…should not be lifted.” Su Mingan said.
Su Mingan discovered long ago that this world, including the entire universe, is like a game that cannot be violated [rules]. As long as you sign a bet, you must act in accordance with the bet. Otherwise, like the player Blair who revealed that ‘everyone who clears the level perfectly can make a wish’, he will be directly wiped out by the organizer with white light.
Akto took a sip of Biluochun and said with a smile, “We cannot go back on the bet, but we can take advantage of the [rules].”
“For example?” Su Mingan said.
“The condition of your bet is—’the Dawn system must be restarted within twenty days.” Akto’s finger stroked in the air, like a chalk outline in the air, and wrote three words:
’Twenty days’.
’Performer: Su Mingan’.
’Restart Dawn System’.
Su Mingan stared at these three words, and said softly “Huh?”
“Among these three conditions, which one do you think we can take advantage of?” Akto’s tone was quite persuasive.
Su Mingan’s gaze was fixed on these three conditions.
“Twenty days.” Su Mingan replied.
“Why?” Actor asked.
“From the current clues, ‘time’ is the most different content in the world of ruins from the definition of reality. If you want to break the situation, you can only start from this level.” Su Mingan said.
Actor smiled and said: “It seems that your way of thinking has matured. I believe that even in the next world copy, you can keep going.”
Actor stood up and drew a large circle in the air with his finger, starting with ‘twenty days’ and ending with ‘restart the dawn system’, and drew a circle.
“—Then, since we have chosen the breakthrough—Su Ming’an, how do you think we can break through the shackles of ‘twenty days’?” Akto’s voice became serious.
Su Mingan had put down the coffee cup in his hand, and he realized that Actor was teaching him ‘how to play the world game’.
Split the problem bit by bit, break it up, guide it, link the clues bit by bit, sort out your own thinking mode, so as to decide what to do next – Actor is teaching him this kind of universal thinking of “perfect customs clearance” template’. This is a skill that can never be found in the World Forum, and it is countless times more precious than purple-level equipment.
Su Mingan thought for a while: “Tomorrow is the ‘twentieth day’. If I want to save the ruined world, I will definitely reach the twentieth day. There is no way to go back in time. The only breaking point I can think of is my The Central City Laboratory that has not solved the mystery so far.”
The central city laboratory that stayed in the 72nd year of the catastrophe was where he stayed for three days at the beginning. There, there is the amiable Mrs. Mela, the life assistant Theresa, and the twin living treasures Dongxu and Xudong, and everyone loves him.
There may be a breaking point there. But there were too few clues, and he couldn’t figure it out.
Seeing that Su Mingan couldn’t make the next step, Actor tapped on the teapot and said the answer:
“Su Mingan.”
“—If we can introduce the performer as a ‘person who will never reach the twentieth day’, this bet will have no end and can never be lost. This is the best solution.”
Su Mingan was slightly taken aback.
“However, how can I never reach the twentieth day? Unless I die on the nineteenth day.” Su Mingan said.
Akto said: “You are the one who fulfills the contract, and this cannot be changed. But who said—there is only one you in the world of ruins?”
Su Mingan’s pupils shrunk.
Actor’s words suddenly opened a new window for him.
“But the player’s time is not sliced. As a player, I should only have one me.” Su Mingan said.
Actor laughed and said:
“No.”
“Su Ming’an, you can’t confuse your definition of ‘time’ with the definition of ‘time’ in the world of ruins.”
“Usually, the concepts of ‘time’ and ‘space’ are simplistic for you. As a human being, you think that time is time and space is space. But the dimensional theory of Dawn System breaks through this simplification The boundaries of time and space are confused.”
“‘Time’ is quantifiable in front of our administrator accounts. It is no longer a linear line, but a large grid. On this theoretical basis, we can capture you in different time grids— Of course, the ‘you’ in these different times is not actually considered as the ‘you’ itself, because only the current ‘you’ is the ‘you’. The ‘you’ in other different times are just phantoms remaining in the grid time, but They essentially fall under the definition of ‘you’.”
“Just like Cheng Luohe. He is himself as an old antique dealer in the city of measurement. As for the middle-aged sniper in the two-dimensional world, he is more like a phantom on the timeline.”
“As long as it’s ‘you’, it doesn’t count as breaking the rules of the civilized bet.”
“As long as we lead the fulfilment person to the ‘past you’, we can make the fulfilment person never reach the twentieth day.”
Akto’s words made Su Mingan’s eyes light up.
Su Mingan has wondered since he was very young, whether the him a day ago, or even a few hours ago is really him. Is there a possibility that his life only started from the current second, and all the previous memories were instilled in the current second.
He has not been able to figure out this question so far. But Actor’s words gave him a new room for thinking.
He lowered his eyes, lost in thought.
Akto saw Su Mingan like this, and said, “Su Mingan, try your best to understand, otherwise what will happen to more complicated dungeons in the future? This is the ninth world.”
“…Okay.” Su Mingan said.
He thought that if Noel was here, he would be able to understand it in seconds.
“Give.”
A bar of chocolate was handed to him.
“Eat a piece of chocolate and think about it.” Actor held up a plate of chocolate.
Su Mingan took it, and bit down with a “click”, his mouth was full of sweetness, this is a piece of white chocolate.
“Have you finished thinking about it?” Actor said.
“You continue to talk.”
Akto got up, and using his hand as a substitute, drew a big snow-white snake in the air. The serpent’s head holds its tail, and it looks like a ring without gaps.
—This is a ouroboros, it has no head and tail, like a Möbius ring.
“Su Ming’an, have you heard of ‘Ouroboros’?” Akto asked.
“It’s a snake without a head and tail.” Su Mingan said.
“Correct.” Actor nodded:
“So, have you ever thought that the world of ruins is, in a sense, equivalent to a ouroboros?”
“Huh?” Su Mingan responded suspiciously.
Data flow surrounded them, under the snow-white Ouroboros, Actor said:
“The Ouroboros I’m talking about now is not a type of snake, but a definition of cause and effect—that is, if there is a cause, there must be an effect, and if there is an effect, the cause must be deduced.”
“Su Ming’an, have you ever thought about a possibility—if the two-dimensional world is a box, then the city of measurement, as a one-dimensional world, can also be a box? Or, above us, there is a bigger box? Boxes within boxes, endless boxes?”
“Have you ever thought that we, who are trapped in a box, are all a kind of program? Is the universe of human beings a kind of self-running program, and when it meets certain requirements, it will return to the beginning? The universe Is the revolution and rotation time of the universe a data set in advance? Can the “black hole” in the universe be counted as a “command program” that moves coordinates instantaneously? Can an asteroid hitting a planet be counted as a “measurement” And the variable introduced is equivalent to rose blood? And the Big Bang, is it equivalent to a program restart, or a new simulation of the world? The universe is a huge observation box, and outside the universe—is there An ‘Asa Actor’ who controls the ‘dawn system’ of the universe?”
The white brilliance condensed in the air, forming characters one by one, and each character represented an incomparably huge definition.
time.
space.
Universe.
Reboot.
It seems that an invisible hand is holding Su Mingan’s heart tightly. Facing these theories, he is a little out of breath, and only these gleaming white characters are left in his eyes.
His vision froze, and a dense layer of cold sweat appeared on his back.
“Su Mingan.”
Actor walked up to him.
In those dark gray eyes, it seems that countless fleeting times are locked.
“It’s the first time I’ve heard this kind of statement, but…it fits the situation of the ruined world.” Su Mingan pressed his chest, and finally found his voice in extreme shock: “What should I do?”
“What I need you to do—is link a Ouroboros,” Actor said.
“How do I link?” Su Mingan said.
Actor stopped in front of him.
“You want to turn your ‘twenty days’ into a ouroboros without a head and a tail, so that the ‘past you’ can never reach the twentieth day.” Actor said: “In more common words In terms of—”
Su Mingan blinked, and some indescribable premonitions arose in his heart. Boom, boom, boom, the heart is beating like a drum, as if it is about to jump into the throat.
He had a subtle premonition, as if a long-buried doubt was about to be answered—
Actor stared at him, whispered:
“you need to-“
“Go ‘self-induce yourself’.”
…
If time is a 20cm line, every 1cm is counted as one day.
When someone cuts the thread at 19cm, pull it back to 1cm and tie a knot. Then 1cm and 19cm become a ring without beginning and end.
No matter who walks the line from 1cm to 19cm, he will never be able to reach the 20cm. He will only return to 1cm after reaching 19cm.
—Knotting 1cm and 19cm is what Su Mingan will do.
