Dreamland Guide

This is not a physical world.

It is deep and void, with countless spots of light shining, like an endless nebula.

Aoki remembered that night in Ramla, the starry sky sung by the Itsa.

Such a dream is obviously not something a local area network can afford, at least it is not the same as the computer dream that Aoki entered.

The starlight changes, condensing a strange face, like a real "ghost".

But Aoki knew that this ghost was not that ghost.

"You are finally here!" said the ghost, "I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Are you... the Internet?" Aoki asked.

"It's okay to say that, but it's not entirely accurate."

That face became clearer and clearer, and strangely, Aoki felt a little familiar. Some memory fragments began to disturb his consciousness again, and this time it was in a dream. With the interference of his memory, the dream space here also changed. The starlight was flowing and distorted, and some strange pictures flashed in the starlight, and it broke quickly as soon as it became clear, as if to tear the entire space apart.

"Your spirit is still so strong." Face said.

Aoki controlled the disturbance of his memory and asked, "Who are you on earth?"

"Do you really forget me completely?" A regretful expression appeared on his face, "I thought our friendship would last forever!"

"Our friendship?" Aoki didn't understand what it was talking about. If it is the ghost of the beginning, it is a bit of friendship, but it can't be said forever. As for the Internet itself, there is no intersection between him and it.

The starlight in the void surged violently, and the light and darkness converged on that face, making it more clear and three-dimensional, and in a short while it became a living person, rather than a phantom ghost.

He has dark hair and dark eyes, and his eye sockets are deep, and he is full of wisdom at first glance. The nose is very big, the tip of the nose is slightly undercut, and there is a curly moustache on the lips. The corners of his mouth turned upwards, and he smiled slyly towards Aoki.

"Saying!"

As soon as Aoki saw this face, the name suddenly appeared in his mind. He remembered that this was a Jewish scientist, a scientific lunatic!

"You finally remembered me!" Sa Liiding seemed very happy. "It looks like your memory is just a deep sleep and hasn't died. This is a miracle."

Aoki did not speak. Although he remembered the person Sa Liiding, he still couldn't remember the specific past, and the chaotic memory was impacting his consciousness. Being in the opponent’s dream, all his conscious activities could not be hidden from him, so he had to control his impulse to recall and sort out the fragments of memory, and only recall things related to Saridin, and suppress everything else as much as possible temporarily. Don't let the subconscious mind show up.

"You seem to know me well?" he asked as he thought about it.

"Of course!" Saiding said, "When we founded the Soul Lab, we were good friends who talked about everything."

"What soul laboratory?" Aoki asked in amazement.

"Aha, your injury seems to be really serious. It's not easy to restore your memory!" Sa Liiding sighed, "You were different from the one you were at that time. How high-spirited you were at that time. How crazy! Even I was shocked when you said you were going to start a soul laboratory. But I was quickly convinced by you, you are such a genius! When those British guys are still weighing souls stupidly, When trying to prove the quality of the soul through the difference between the weight of the living and the dead, we are already studying the phenomenon of mental energy and consciousness migration.

Although you lack the systematic knowledge of physics, your unhurried thoughts that day, your powerful mental power, the special experimental field formed by your dream space, and my scientific brain, we are the most perfect combination of geniuses in the world! It’s just that I don’t understand, why are you betraying me, betraying our common great cause? "

Aoki asked, "What great cause?"

"Create a spiritual force field for the earth, so that all mankind can have spiritual power, including ordinary people like me in the eyes of your awakened ones."

The expression on Sa Liding's face changed for a while, happy for a while, sad for a while, proud, and low self-esteem for a while.

"Didn't you always say that you want to bring the great Gaia back to Earth?"

"Gaia?!"

"Oh, don't look at me like that! Your mental power is like a knife. Although I am not afraid of you now, your reaction makes me uncomfortable." Sa Liding said, "Gaia is not the spiritual source that you have always emphasized. Although I don’t understand why you named the source of cosmic consciousness by the name of the earth **** Gaia in Greek mythology, but it doesn’t matter. I also want to know what exactly is the brain of a Boltzmann born in the starry sky. appearance.

Unfortunately, you seem to have been abandoned by Gaia! Or...you betrayed Gaia? "

Aoki faintly guessed something, combined with the memory picture flashed back to him, a strong anxiety arose in his heart.

"Are you slapped or the Internet?" Aoki asked.

"Of course I am Sa Liding, do you think I am dead?" Sa Liding laughed loudly, "If I hadn't been studying neural networks, or if I tried to poison, try to store my consciousness. On the computer network, I really died."

"Storing consciousness on the Internet?" Aoki frowned.

Sa Liding said: "Well, even now, this is a very difficult thing to do. Some companies in the United States have launched a "cloud immortality" service that allows customers to live in the cloud and their relatives can chat with him over the Internet. Speaking is like chatting with me through a chat tool. But this is actually a low-level intelligent service, a fake eternal life. The person living in the cloud is actually not a real consciousness~www.readwn.com~ but an artificial intelligence , Through big data to collect the customer’s information during his lifetime, including his personality, habits, tone and part of his memory. It is not the consciousness of the person who talks with relatives. His consciousness is dead long ago. It is just an artificial intelligence that imitates him. . What a sand sculpture service!"

Aoki was silent, wondering why he said this.

Sa Liao Ding continued, "But I am different. I really transferred my consciousness to the Internet. Now standing in front of you is the old Sa Liao Ding, who is like a fake replacement! I can't do it in the 21st century. I did it in the 1970s, do you think I’m a genius?! Ahahaha..."

Aoki's heart sank slowly, and he asked with a trace of doubt: "So you turned yourself into the Internet, and the Internet is you?!"

"The same can be said." Saiding said, "but there was no Internet at that time. There were only two branches of the University of California, plus Stanford University and the University of Utah. A total of four large computers formed a packet-switched ARPANET. Later, there were more and more such networks, and our laboratory also joined. Anyway, we are very close to the University of California, which is very convenient."

"So, the Soul Laboratory you are talking about is...Laboratory 19 of the Lawrence Berkeley National Experimental Center?!"
