Chapter 2 Technology and Magic
In the hologram about 20 cm high, the man looks about 45 years old, with a full beard, a blue trench coat and a top hat, and is looking calmly from side to side out of thin air, as if looking for something.
At first, I thought it was a video, expecting what the bearded uncle would say, but he didn't make any other movements except looking left and right, and he didn't notice any change after waiting for a while.
"Is there any other play button?" Yang Zijiang thought, looking for a long time on the LCD screen, but did not find any icons to operate, the screen was white, and there was no response to touch.
Tossed for a few minutes, didn't get the desired result, but the projection gradually dimmed and faded, and finally turned into an ordinary 2D image displayed on the screen, the expression and movement did not change, as if it was a screensaver when standby.
Yang Zijiang thought that he couldn't afford to lose this high-tech product, so he simply put it on his hand.
The bracelet strap material is rare, the surface is integrated, and it is not like an ordinary bracelet opening, and it takes a lot of effort to find the connection port hidden under the display screen.
Another suspected 'cat teasing pen' was also lying on the table, driven by curiosity, picked it up, there were three buttons on it, subconsciously tried to press it a few times, with a slight vibration, apparently inadvertently turned on the switch.
And this bracelet picture has become a three-dimensional projection, and it has emerged again, but Uncle Bearded has one more thing in his hand at the moment, which is exactly the same as this "teasing cat pen", Uncle Bearded Beard spoke:
"WonderPen is connected, data synchronization is successful, waiting for the user identity to bind ......"
But after saying this, there was no other movement in the beard. Artificial Intelligence?Human-Machine Dialogue?
"Hello, how do you bind the user?"
"Failed to recognize the instruction, please try again. ”
"Hello, what the hell are you?"
"Failed to recognize the instruction, please try again. ”
“...... Open the manual for me......"
"Failed to recognize the instruction, please try again. ”
"Fuck you, uncle!" Yang Zijiang tried the "man-machine dialogue" a few times, and found that it was all a waste of expressions, muttered about changing the target, studied the magic pen, and pressed the buttons randomly, which had a reaction.
With the sound of 'zizi', a few colored sparks shine on the nib of the pen, which disappear in an instant, not as expected, there will be laser rays, which look like an electric soldering iron or electric welding gun.
"The soldering iron with the bracelet is too advanced!" Yang Zijiang shook it casually, and something unexpected happened.
With the trajectory of the movement, a long line of light is drawn from the tip of the pen, like a smear caused by the visual delay of holding a cigarette and shaking it in the dark.
But what the stroke of this pen is not a fleeting phantom, it has some kind of chemical reaction with the air and becomes a real object, like a thin translucent strip of paper-like solid object.
The thin piece of air paper was pinched in his hand, fluttering lightly without feeling any weight, in fact it was lighter than a feather, even if he let go of his fingers, it would not fall, but it could swim and flutter with a light blow.
It's just that the air note was annihilated in less than 1 minute, as if it had melted into the air and there was nothing left, Yang Zijiang felt a little interesting, and suddenly remembered something and drew it in the air.
This time he wrote his own name, and it was very artistically autographed.
When Yang Zijiang finished writing and was admiring his transparent name floating in the air, a voice came from the bracelet: "'Yang Zijiang' is recognized, the verification is successful, the user has been bound, and the interactive mode is activated......"
Before he could figure out how to activate the bracelet by mistake, Yang Zijiang didn't have time to ask, and the bearded uncle on the projection had already moved, turned his head to face himself and began to speak:
"Yang Zijiang, the system displays the current time at 21:26 on May 9, if there is an error with your current actual time, please say correct the system time, if there is no error, please say that the confirmation time is correct. ”
Yang Zijiang was full of questions, but after thinking about it, he couldn't help it, and saw that the time on the company's wall clock and mobile phone was at 21:26, so he said: "Confirm that the time is correct." ”
The beard nodded: "Very good, no accidents." If there is no mistake in the MW system, at this time, the lightning and thunder outside, the Xuanmen has been opened, and the ten thousand demons have crossed the line, Yang Zijiang, congratulations on becoming the chosen one......"
"Wait, wait!" Yang Zijiang was confused and said: "It's hard for me to accept such a large amount of information suddenly, can you talk about something simple, let's start with who you are, are you a human being? or artificial intelligence?"
"Of course I'm a human being, but what you see now is a 'data image' calculated by countless interactive programs, and in layman's terms, it's like I've recorded countless words, expressions, actions, and thoughts in advance, and expressed them through interaction. In other words, although you and I are not talking in real time, there is no essential difference between you and real conversation. ”
"Okay then, what is Xuanmen?"
"In just two hundred years, science and technology have developed by leaps and bounds, using quantum technology and planetary-level computer systems to realize the digitization of all things, and human beings have suffered a backlash while overdrawing technology.
The magical civilization and the scientific and technological civilization have been fighting openly and secretly for nearly a hundred years, and the scientific and technological civilization has fallen into a bottleneck period, the magical civilization has occupied a dominant position, and the human survivors are less than 500 million, and they are forced to retreat to the polar wasteland, and there are no enough resources to confront it head-on.
And the opening of the Xuanmen in your current era is the cause of everything, and the best way to counterattack calculated by the MW system can only start to reverse the situation when the dimensional Xuanmen is first opened and the magical civilization has not yet become a climate.
After a rigorous selection process, you have been chosen to be one of the candidates to take on the important role, this is the last Jedi counterattack of humanity, and countless people have been sacrificed in order to use the time dimension to deliver weapons to you accurately, so you ......"
"Uncle, can you make it simpler? Do you have a name?"
Yang Zijiang interrupted a little helplessly, although it sounded very interesting, regardless of whether he could accept these bizarre statements or not, such a long speech as Uncle Hu's beard was very brain-consuming.
"I am the Celestial Master, from the New Dimensional Era two hundred years later. He said: "The pen in your hand is officially called the ion and gas molecule solidification reaction pen, you can call it a magic pen." ”
Yang Zijiang wanted to laugh inexplicably, and said, "Is it because of lust?"
"What nonsense the little kid is. The Celestial Master said, "Because my compilation method is bound to the color shadow code, and the same is bound to other compilation methods, and the Celestial Master is my friend. ”
"Then why is it called a Heavenly Master?" Yang Zijiang asked, "Is it a Taoist priest?"
"Even if you are right, but not a Taoist priest in the traditional sense, most of the origins of things in the New Dimensional Era have been completely deciphered like human DNA and presented in the MW system as visual code data.
All kinds of mysterious phenomena, such as Taoism, magic, Qimen, Dunjia, Yin and Yang, five elements, etc., are also applications with their own code logic, and their source code can be decompiled after decipherment.
For example, in the case of common Taoism, those different shapes of glyphs are a set of decompilation instructions, which have been optimized and improved in the New Dimension era, and most of the flashy code has been discarded to simplify the operation.
This pen is also a simple and efficient tool for drawing symbols, which does not require tedious and lengthy ritual movements, and can use graphic colors and geometric lines to write command codes to act on objects. ”
"What is the MW system?" Yang Zijiang said, "It's both technology and Taoism, it's too confusing." ”
"MW is a virtual system created by planetary-class computers to simulate the real world in real time, like a mirror of the world, analyzing various variables, eliminating undesirable consequences, and maintaining the stable operation of the real world.
After the opening of the Genmon, the boundaries between technology and magic became blurred, and humans were forced to compromise with the magical civilization to learn and use the Genmen system, resulting in a new skill system that combined science and magic.
This skill is simple, efficient and practical, easier to learn and comprehend, even if the IQ and physical strength are low, and the people you usually call 'Xiaobai' can quickly master it, so we chose you ......"
"You are Xiaobai!" Yang Zijiang heard the anger here, and said angrily: "What do you mean, you scold?"
"I'm not a little white, I'm a celestial master." The color master smiled and said, "Don't get excited, I mean that after the threshold is lowered, ordinary people can easily get started."
You were selected by the system, although I don't know the reason for it yet, but you must have something outstanding to be entrusted with a big responsibility.
Is there anything else you have to ask? The system has less than 5% power, and it is about to enter standby with automatic protection. ”
