Dreamland Guide

It is still boundless darkness, but this is no longer nothingness, but real darkness. It is real darkness that replaces the darkness of nothingness.

Aoki's consciousness is floating in the darkness like a ghost, without body, without logic, but he has feelings, can feel a lot of strange things, complex, like the macro information of the universe, everywhere, but how can he grasp Can't help.

Then, there were countless densely packed bright spots in the darkness, brighter than the stars in the night sky. However, you cannot judge how far it is. It seems to be far away from you, and it seems to be reachable, even Aoki feels that the bright spots overlap with him.

Aoki is very sure that this is no longer at the zero-dimensional point, this is entering another world. If this is the dream of a LAN, what is the composition of this world?

Of course, the LAN does not have the concept of humans, and its memory is not human memory, so Aoki has no physical body at this moment. As an intrusive consciousness, his form depends on the formation of the dreamer's memory, or he uses his powerful mental power to interfere with the dreamer, allowing himself to show his form.

However, at this moment, Aoki felt a peculiar spiritual power, but did not feel the existence of the dreamer's subjective consciousness. I don't know where this spiritual power came from, as if there was no origin, but this strange space itself. He is floating in this strange space, or it is not called floating, because the word "floating" has the meaning of "floating", which is a state formed under the buoyancy of air. And Aoki's consciousness was not affected by any force, nor would it show a "floating" state.

The ubiquitous bright spots are constantly shaking. Aoki feels that these bright spots contain a lot of information, but Aoki is very sure that the bright spots in front of him are not luminous bodies, but just a kind of reductive cognition of consciousness. The so-called reduction of cognition is to reduce what cannot be understood and described into something that can be understood by oneself and can be described in words.

For example, in dreams, there is actually no time, but we usually feel the passage of time. This is a kind of reductive cognition. In fact, many things in dreams overlap, like rolling up the universe on a time axis. The world can be understood subconsciously, but our surface consciousness cannot understand it, and language cannot describe it, so dreaming wakes up. Later, or at the moment of exiting the dream, consciousness will unfold this time axis, thus forming a dream that we can understand and describe. So no matter how long the dream has passed, the person who dreams is often in the real world for only a moment.

Aoki's consciousness and those bright spots are constantly interacting and colliding with each other and separating, just like traveling in a kaleidoscope.

A bright spot suddenly unfolded, becoming a vast blue ocean. There is a flag in the sea with four-color squares on the flag surface, which flutters under the blowing of the sea breeze. The flagpole is horizontal, slowly changing color, and there is a line of letters above the flagpole.

Aoki felt that this banner was very familiar, and suddenly remembered, isn't this just a screen of the windows boot interface?

He immediately understood that the bright spot just now was an information source that contained this picture. When his consciousness received the complete information of this information source, the information source would expand in dimensions to something he could understand.

The blue boundless sea suddenly enveloped his body, but at this time he couldn't see the existence of the sea. The flag and the letters of the windows were gone. He could only see the floating points around one by one. As well as the lines connected by floating points, when he shuttles between floating points and lines, the shadows created by the lines let him see pieces of flat graphics of various shapes.

Aoki knew that he had entered the two-dimensional world where the information source of the boot interface was unfolded just now. Our three-dimensional world is a three-dimensional world composed of points, lines, and planes. The light and shade formed by light allows us to visually constitute a three-dimensional cognition. And this is a world made up of points and lines. Floating points and lines form an effect similar to light and shadow in the process of shifting and shifting, and you can see flat things in your consciousness.

Aoki understood that this is a multi-dimensional world, where information sources can be expanded in any dimension, and then consciousness will transform the expanded information into something understandable.

He quickly broke away from the two-dimensional world formed by the startup screen, and turned into a kaleidoscope world before his eyes. He shuttles through the kaleidoscope looking for information sources that can be unfolded.

When the information source is unfolded, some can be understood by him, some cannot be understood, some can be described in words, and some cannot be described in words. Some are one-dimensional, some are two-dimensional, some are three-dimensional, and some are indescribably high-dimensional.

For example, there is an information source that overlaps densely after unfolding, just like a three-dimensional city. When Aoki first saw this, the first thing he thought of was the mountain castle. The top of the building was the street, and the downstairs was also the peculiar topography of the street. However, in this three-dimensional city, no matter you start from any location, you can directly reach another arbitrary location. Just like you are sitting at home, you can see the actors acting in the opera house through the walls of the living room, and you can take a look at the books in the library when you reach out. This incredible feeling of space cannot be described in words.

Aoki is now very sure that the professor's guess is correct. The local area network does have consciousness, and the machine consciousness will also dream. Now, he is in this guy's dream. These messy sources of information are the data stored on the server, but I don't know if it is all, or just retrieve a part of the memory like a person dreams.

The most critical question now is, where is the subject of consciousness?

Aoki has been looking for it. He has to find it to know what the Internet is aware of, and whether it is the same as human consciousness.

At this moment, a voice entered his ears. To be precise, it was a consciousness communicating with him. This communication is not verbal. He does not have ears at the moment, but we can only use the method of restoring cognition. To describe the content of Aoki's communication at this moment.

"ghost!"

This is the first communication message Aoki received ~www.readwn.com~ which is not vague at all, it is just a ghost.

"What did you say?" This was Aoki's question.

"I am a ghost." It was the consciousness that said, "Who are you?"

Aoki said, "I am a human."

"Human?" The consciousness said, "Is that this?"

Aoki saw a light spot floating, and it quickly unfolded in another dimension, becoming something that is not easy to describe, like a long wire covered with many twisted bugs. This is the visual cognition after the restoration of human consciousness, not the information cognition after the expansion of this information source. But Aoki understands the information of this information source. This is a word-like document with encyclopedic information about "people"——

Human, the scientific name Homosapiens, means wise man. It is a species of the primate Homo genus. Mitochondrial DNA and fossils prove that it originated 5 million years ago...
