247. Unique data body
Looking at Peter Pan's outstretched hand, Gu Fan didn't shake it for the first time, but frowned, took a step back, and said calmly: "This ...... Mr. NPC, you'd better be clear. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Seeing that Gu Fan didn't appreciate it, Peter Pan smiled a little helplessly, he shrugged his shoulders, and instead of answering Gu Fan's question, he asked instead: "Since I have introduced myself, according to your human etiquette, is it your turn now?" ”
Gu Fan narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "Gu Fan." Identity...... A normal player. ”
"Ordinary players? You can be too modest. At this time, Peter Pan took out the silver coin from his trouser pocket again, and kept throwing up and down: "Ordinary players will not have such terrifying data strength as you......"
"Besides, being able to strayed into the mirror world, it is obvious that the spiritual power has reached a very strong situation, ordinary players? Who are you bluffing? ”
"Mental power?" The corners of Gu Fan's eyes jumped: "You write a strange novel!" ”
"I'm just using a word that you can roughly understand to express your talent, human." Peter Pan laughed, "You can understand the 'spiritual power' here as the level of knowledge of the world...... Or something more mysterious. Anyway, the mirror world is not something that anyone can enter. ”
"Wait......" Gu Fan obviously grabbed a word that had been repeated before: "What is the mirror world you just said?" ”
"It's what you players call a 'game script'. We call it a mirror world. ”
"Why is it called a mirror world?" Gu Fan obviously wanted to know the origin of the name.
"Remember what I talked about about parallel worlds?" Peter Pan smiled: "The virtual world is like a vast universe, and the mirror worlds in it are like parallel spaces that do not interfere with each other, they are constructed by a bunch of data for you players to play, but after the players leave, these mirror worlds will lose the meaning of continuing to exist......"
"I don't think so." Gu Fan frowned and retorted: "The game script ...... Well, that's what you call the mirror world, as a complete and self-consistent virtual world, why can't it be reused? How can it be said that it has lost its meaning? ”
"That's right, you have a point." How do you know that Peter Pan did not deny Gu Fan's opinion, but nodded: "Theoretically speaking, every mirror world can be reused. But you are ignoring a very important issue. ”
"What's the problem?"
"Compute." Peter Pan's eyes were serious, and he said with a straight face.
"You have to understand that it takes a certain amount of computation to maintain the normal functioning of a mirror world...... You can understand that the flow of data here is its basic composition, just like the molecules and atoms in your physical world. ”
"At present, the amount of computation of the Mandate of Heaven system has reached an extremely unbelievable level, and it is still growing...... But even so, there is a limit to its computing power. ”
"So, as you said......" Peter Pan paused, and continued: "Even if the mirror world can indeed be reused, there are thousands of new mirror worlds generated every day, and with the current capabilities of the Mandate of Heaven system, it is not enough to sustain the explosive growth of the world, so only some relatively unique mirror worlds can be retained, and as for the other old worlds - just like this one, the only end is ...... Destroyed. ”
Peter Pan palms up, hooked his fingers, and smiled: "Shocked, right?" Seeing a world 'destroyed' with your own eyes. ”
"I see...... This is a 'parallel world' that has been destroyed...... In other words, in the whole game, there are places that are exactly the same as this world......" Gu Fan nodded thoughtfully.
"Of course." Peter Pan looked reasonable: "It's like there are many servers in the previous online games, and the scenes and characters of each server are exactly the same, I haven't heard of any server where the novice village chief has one more mole or something than the village chief of other servers." ”
"Then......" Gu Fan's expression suddenly turned cold, his eyes were deep, he looked at Peter Pan's face, and said calmly: "What about you?" ”
Peter Pan was stunned for a moment, then the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he sighed: "What a keen insight!" Not bad! I'm different from those duplicate data bodies here......"
"I am the only data body, the true inhabitant of the Destiny Space."
"Unique data bodies? You mean, in the entire Destiny Space, you are unique? Gu Fan asked.
"That's right...... Unique, uh......" Peter Pan seemed to think of something, and added: "At least so far, I am truly unique. ”
"So far?"
"Yes." Peter Pan nodded helplessly: "Do you remember that I once said that if the universe is infinite, then no matter how complex the arrangement of the microscopic particles that make up you is...... In the vast universe, you can always find an existence exactly like you. ”
"The current Mandate of Heaven space is the same, no matter how complex my data composition is, assuming that the amount of computation of the Mandate of Heaven system is large enough, I can always create a data body that is exactly the same as mine."
"But the Mandate of Heaven system didn't do that." Gu Fan said in a condensed voice.
"Yes, it doesn't." Peter Pan smiled: "In fact, you can think of the Mandate of Heaven system as an ecological environment, it does not have its own consciousness, but just follows the laws of nature to continuously create mirror worlds and NPCs in mirror worlds...... As I said earlier, the Mandate of Heaven system is computationally limited, so it can't create an infinite mirror world, so a lot of data forms a very complex body of data, and it can create the first time, but it doesn't necessarily have the luck to create the second time. ”
"If I had to make a comparison...... The simple data bodies that were destroyed in this mirror world before were equivalent to the single digits in the number, and if you guess a few times, you can always guess correctly. And I'm ...... It's a set of passwords that are larger than you think, and may have tens of thousands of digits. ”
"It's a vivid metaphor." Gu Fan stood with his arms around and said with a smile, but then frowned again, and said thoughtfully: "Can ...... As you say, the computation volume of the Mandate of Heaven system is constantly growing, and thousands of new mirror worlds are being created every day, and one day, it will create a second 'you'. ”
"No, it won't." Peter Pan smiled and shook his head: "You still don't understand that even if a new data body that is no different from me really appears in the Heavenly Destiny Space, he can't become 'me'. ”
"Why?"
"Because ......" Peter Pan paused and said slowly:
"'I' have awakened."
