Chapter 337: The Origin of the System (2)
"No life?!" Chen Xiao was surprised: "Then those people I met are all ......"
"They're all pieces of data," the man in black said calmly, "but it's not just a piece of data. Well, you earthlings once made a series of movies called "The Matrix", I think you should have heard of it. ”
The Matrix? Chen Xiao has naturally heard of this movie, and even watched it several times.
The man in black saw Chen Xiao nodding and said with a smile: "This is much easier to explain." To put it simply, on this planet, there are only conditions for the survival of living creatures, and the environment is similar to that on the earth. And the world you see is actually the virtual data simulated by the Species Potential Laboratory of our cosmic galactic plane space management system - based on the legend of Jin Yong's heroes you played on the earth, of course, we have made some small changes. Don't be surprised, it's all my bad taste - in the words of you young people, I'm also a brain-dead fan of Oriental girls. What do you think? Surprised? ”
Chen Xiao was dumbfounded when he heard this, he looked around again, swallowed his saliva, and suddenly asked, "Then what?" What does this have to do with me? ”
"Of course, the relationship is not small. Because we chose you, of course, you can think it's your shit luck, or it's bad luck to step on shit -- you're here anyway. The man in black smiled and said, "The last person we chosen, he was similar to a monkey before he came, but when he went back, it was different, well, it was about 10,000 years ago?" I can't remember what that man's name was - he'll be called Pangu when he goes back anyway, I think you know. ”
Pangu! Pangu, my grass!
That guy has been here too? Or is it that Pangu, who opened the world in myths and legends, is actually an experimental subject like himself?
This time Chen Xiao was really shocked, he asked completely subconsciously: "Then ...... earth?"
The man in black smiled and said: "At the beginning, there was life on the earth, and there were some intelligent races, of course, it can only be regarded as the first level of wisdom, well, it is those ancient monkeys, in your terms, called ape-men." ”
Speaking of this, the man in black looked at Chen Xiao with a smile and asked, "It took about nearly two million years for ape-man to become a human from its birth. There is a small question in this, you think, a species, it took two million years to finally develop intelligence, but in a short period of about 10,000 years, it has developed to the same level as the current human beings on your earth, don't you think, this is very strange? ”
It's weird, of course it's weird.
Chen Xiao has learned from history, it took about two million years for ape-man to evolve into a highly intelligent human being in the 21st century from the very beginning. But the weirdness is weird, in the first 100,000 years, the apes can be said to be standing still, and the progress is quite slow, but in modern times, that is, in the time of about 10,000 years in modern times, the pace of human evolution has suddenly accelerated countless times. Especially in the five thousand years since the appearance of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, human beings have been like snails crawling in the past, and suddenly they are on the high-speed train - the speed of evolution is not half a star.
Just looking at Chen Xiao's expression, the man in black knew that he understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "At that time, the ape man caught our attention, and Pangu was the experimental subject of our cosmic galaxy plane space management system species potential laboratory, but his potential test was wisdom. ”
And he didn't disappoint us. In the course of the experiment, his intelligence evolved quite quickly, and of course, to our surprise, his intelligence did evolve beyond our imagination. But we don't care about this kind of thing - and so the earth became what it is today, and he was not the only one who participated in the experiment with him, but there were people from every continent on your planet, some of whom succeeded and some of whom failed. The ancient civilizations you know are actually the descendants of these test subjects, such as your Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor of China. ”
It turns out that everything is like this...... When he said this, Chen Xiao finally understood part of the reason. However, he is more concerned about the affairs of this world: "What about this world? It doesn't seem to be the same as on Earth, right? ”
The man in black said slowly: "It's really not the same. Because there was no real intelligent life on Earth at that time, ape-man could only be called sub-intelligent at best. So we conducted the experiment directly on the mainland of the earth, and it would not have any impact on the earth at that time. However, the wisdom of human beings on the earth is quite advanced, and what is lacking is time, if we carry out experiments and change the trajectory of human development, it will not be appropriate, so this 100% simulation experiment has been carried out on this planet. You're our test subject. ”
Hearing this, Chen Xiao hung his head and said with a sad face: "Isn't this world still a piece of data after talking about it for a long time?" I'd rather not listen to you so much, my sister jade......"
The man in black listened amusedly, and said, "Originally, it was indeed like this, everything in this world is just a piece of data. But it's different now -- and that's why I'm here. Because you have truly started the legendary quest, what you will do in the future is a real legend in this world. Whether it's a success, or a failure. I'm sure you're curious about the level of completeness I announced before, right? ”
Dimensional integrity? It sounded like it had something to do with virtual reality, Chen Xiao nodded violently and said, "Yes, yes, what is that thing?" ”
The man in black took out a cigar and threw it to Chen Xiao, "First?" ”
Chen Xiao didn't say a word, took the cigar and put it in his mouth. Then the man in black snapped his fingers, and the cigar lit itself.
The man in black continued: "Legendary quests, unlike ordinary quests, that's different. This quest will not give you any quest rewards, but the benefits of completing the quest are unimaginably great - with each step you complete, the plane will be perfected by twenty percent. Once you've completed all five steps of the legendary quest, the plane will become a real plane, a real world, and everything will truly exist in the universe - just like your home planet, Earth. ”
Hearing this, Chen Xiao swallowed his saliva and exclaimed, "You mean to say that the essence of this legendary mission is that I can turn this world from a piece of data in your mouth into a real planet?" A planet like Earth? ”
The man in black snapped his fingers and smiled, "That's right. ”
