Chapter 363: Pros and Cons
After an online investigation by Emperor Yuangen, Wang Xingjiang was convinced that there really was no FSN game at this time - this was actually a better explanation.
After all, according to the classification method provided by Agatha, Gaia and Alayah of the FATE series belong to collective intelligence.
After taking out the information recorded on his mobile phone and flipping through it, Wang Xingjiang sat up straight again, "Then I'll explain what these two concepts mean, but this concept is related to the definition of 'life', so I can say a few more words." ”
"First of all, let's talk about the will of nature, which is quite easy to understand for me, that is, the natural phenomena on the planet, and even the entire planet has its own consciousness."
"How is this possible? They have no physiological structure, so how can they have their own consciousness? ",I've lived in the school city for more than ten years.,Emperor Yuangen doesn't believe in all strange things...... Even if it is the "magic" that Wang Xingjiang just mentioned, there are rules to follow......
"Is it because there are patterns in those phenomena?"
"It can be understood that way." Wang Xingjiang agreed with Estelle's words, "The definition of life can actually be very broad, in fact, any object can be a carrier that carries the soul, so any object can become life." ”
"No kidding, do you want to say that these stools are life?" Emperor Gakine felt a little irritated by his inexplicable remarks, "And can you prove the existence of a soul?!" ”
"Yes."
Before Emperor Yuangen continued to ask, Wang Xingjiang asked Aiyu, who was thinking about Honey Ant next to him, "Honey Ant, you shouldn't be able to manipulate the current Mr. Kinda, right?" ”
Aiyu, who was suddenly mentioned, nodded immediately, and then immediately asked an "irrelevant" question, "I can only read Mr. Konda's memories before he died, is this because of this?" ”
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"Soul." , Wang Xingjiang glanced at the information again, and then began to read according to the script, "The soul is the carrier of emotion, and only with the carrier of the soul can it be called life." ”
Wang Xingjiang immediately stretched out his hand to stop Emperor Yuangen's question, "I know you definitely don't believe it, so I'll give you a few examples, and you can also think about it together." ”
"In the first example, an individual who is brain dead, but who has preserved physiological activity because of a life-sustaining device, is not considered life."
"It's just a corpse." Estelle immediately replied, "It's just a mass of breathing meat." ”
"That's what I thought, okay, the next example, transfer your consciousness to a robot, is that robot considered a life?"
Emperor Yuangen spoke at this time, "Impossible! It is impossible to transfer people's consciousness with existing technology! ”
"Just because you can't do it now doesn't mean you won't be able to do it in the future, so it's good to just take this as a hypothesis now." , Wang Xingjiang waved his hand again, signaling Emperor Yuangen to stay calm, "So if the assumption is true, do those robots have any life?" ”
"Yes." , but Emperor Yuangen still couldn't believe it, "This only proves that human thoughts can be understood by computers, but not the existence of souls!" ”
"So I want to mention Mr. Omada." , Wang Xingjiang was not annoyed, and continued to analyze slowly, "Mr. Konda is physiologically dead, but can you say that he is not him now?" ”
Emperor Gakine was speechless for a moment, he found it difficult to explain the occurrence of this phenomenon, but he immediately thought of something else, "This must be the effect of magic!" ”
"No, it's because it's the effect of magic that it proves that there is a soul." , Estelle interjected at this point, "And in the eyes of us magicians, the soul is always there. ”
"That'...... Is there really a paradise? ”
"Not necessarily." , Although Emperor Yuangen's face was gloomy, Wang Xingjiang still directly said the answer, "It depends on whether the corresponding collective wisdom is so powerful." ”
"How to say that." , Emperor Yuangen's psychological quality has always been good, and he didn't look forward to this matter too much, so he quickly adjusted it - if there really is, it will be better.
"This brings us to the definition of collective intelligence." Wang Xingjiang put the fruit plate he had just cut out with a flying sword on the table, and then took a piece of each fruit with chopsticks and put it on another plate, "Like all energy and particles, human emotions and thoughts will naturally diffuse, and if these emotional fluctuations can have a certain law and scale, collective wisdom can be generated." And if the strength of the collective intelligence is strong enough, it can influence reality, so that it can produce a religious product like heaven, which is also the basis of the magic of the medium-based humanistic symbolic system. ”
Thoughts can influence reality......
Isn't this a personal reality?!
Unlike Emperor Yuangen's focus, Estelle's focus was on the "religion" mentioned by Wang Xingjiang: "Is this what the Roman Orthodox Church style of practice came from?" ”
"Roman Orthodoxy? What's that? ”
"Huh! Don't you even know this?! Omi, who was grabbing fruit with the honey ant Aiyu, immediately showed a surprised expression in his hand, "This is the largest religion in the world!" ”
Wang Xingjiang was also very strange, "Isn't it Christianity?" ”
"The Father of Roman Orthodoxy is indeed Christ, but it is true that he is not called Christian." , Emperor Yuangen explained, he knew that Wang Xingjiang might not know the situation in this world.
"Well, it's just a different name." Wang Xingjiang, who had already figured it out, then opened his mouth to explain Estelle's question, "Most of the religion-related techniques are related to collective intelligence, so these magic techniques have great limitations. ”
Estelle felt a little incomprehensible, "The Roman Orthodox Church is the most powerful magical force, if their magic methods have limitations, it is impossible to develop to the point where they are now, right?" ”
"This limitation is not a matter of power, but of the scope of application." , Wang Xingjiang, who felt a little embarrassed, immediately began to flip through the notes, and then pushed the phone away before being confused by the messy description, "I'll give you an example." ”
"Religious magic generally has a punitive effect, so the Roman Orthodox Church should have a technique that directly affects people, right?" After getting Estelle's affirmation, Wang Xingjiang continued to speak, "Then if they encounter an inhuman opponent, will those techniques work?" ”
Seeing Estelle's thoughtful expression, Wang Xingjiang waited for a moment and said, "We can extend this situation a bit, if they encounter an inhuman enemy on an alien planet, can these techniques still work?" ”
"Does that mean the magic has a very limited range of effect?" , the unknown honey ant Aiyu only understood the meaning of this part, and Wang Xingjiang immediately shook his head:
"Not only that, but the objects and areas where this magic can be used are very limited, in fact, according to my opinion, they may not even be able to use these techniques on Mars, because the human footprint has not yet reached Mars."
"Why is that?"
Emperor Yuangen came forward to explain at this time, "It's because there are no human beings living anywhere, so there is no collective wisdom at all." ”
"Yes, it's a similar situation in all astrology." , Wang Xingjiang also looked at Estelle, "The arrangement of stars in the universe has very little intrinsic meaning, so the conclusions that can be divined are actually arranged by intelligent beings themselves. ”
Omi, who felt a little ignorant, immediately proposed, "You better give an example, it's easier to understand." ”
After bringing out another fruit bowl, Wang Xingjiang continued to speak, "Let's take Mars as an example, if there is a magic that uses Martian imagery, can it be used on the surface of Mars?" ”
"I don't understand." ×3
The girls' unanimous responses made Wang Xingjiang feel very dazed, "No, don't you all know about landing on the moon?" ”
"I don't know." ×3
"Have you ever seen a science fiction work?"
"Nope." ×3
Estelle is a magician who doesn't care about science or science fiction in the first place; Omi would have paid attention to cutting-edge technology, but the moon landing was too long, and there were not many follow-up developments, so she didn't care, and she didn't have time to pay attention to science fiction works; Honey ants love her...... There's no reason she shouldn't!
"Oh no, I seem to know." , Aiyu, the honey ant who suddenly reacted, clapped her hands, "That means they can't see Mars, right?" ”
"Yes, because there is no Mars in the local sky at all. Extending this question is whether it is possible to cast spells with the image of the Big Dipper on the North Star, due to the different viewing angles of the constellations, the angle of the local 'Big Dipper' must be different from that on Earth, so can the magic still be valid? ”
Wang Xingjiang immediately gave the answer, "If it's just a medium-type magic, it's basically useless, but if it's an energy-releasing magic, it can still play a little role, because the latter is cast according to the user's definition of constellations, and what is needed is a person's understanding of constellations." ”
"In other words, energy release type magic is more effective and less limited?"
"I can't explain it like this, because it's difficult to practice energy-releasing magic, and all the energy needed for this kind of magic comes from the user, so what you need is to be able to accumulate energy in your body." , Wang Xingjiang suddenly realized, "I seem to understand why your ability won't work for me, because the energy in my body is stronger and the energy field generated is greater, so your ability can't take effect when you're close to me." ”
The powerful power of the superpowers made Wang Xingjiang ignore a problem: they were ordinary people when their abilities were not activated!
They are all glass cannons.
Emperor Yuangen felt a little difficult to accept, "What is the principle of this?" ”
"It's difficult for low-level characters in online games to put debuffs on high-level characters, and it's the same in reality, people with strong hard power will certainly not be easily affected by the weak."
"Are you saying I'm weaker than you?" , Emperor Yuangen chuckled twice, "It's just right, the winner hasn't been decided last time, so let's make a decision now!" ”
"Huh?!"
