Chapter 7 These Orbs of Light are...
It was a little difficult to come, but it was much easier to return, just like diving in the ocean, the further down the sea became, the greater the pressure of the sea, and the density of the earth was much higher than that of the sea, if Ios was not just a consciousness, it would have been crushed long ago.
Even then he was not happy, so as soon as he exited the space, he hurried back home, and in doing so, returned to the online world.
Returning to the online world, Ios began to wonder how he could cope with the visits of his parents in the past without being here. I can't seem to do it, I'm not here, my parents won't be at ease, and I can't talk to my parents in that space.
Suddenly, he had an idea: "... Why don't I get an AI here to replace me? "The more I think about Ios, the more I think this plan is feasible, artificial intelligence, abbreviated as AI in English, I think that in order to create an NPC that meets his heart, he also specially learned related technologies for a few years, and the artificial intelligence technology in this world is already very mature, enough to be fake and real, the kind that can pass the Turing test.
"Well, it didn't work before, but now I can make an artificial intelligence with my memories in this world, and my personality and habits are the same as mine."
As he said and did, Ios pressed his fingertips against each other, and his palms were wrapped around to form a sphere, and the data was fed into it.
Slowly, a sphere appeared between his palms and grew larger and larger as time passed, and Ios took a step back with his hands apart and looked at it like this, as everything that needed to be done had been done. [Yes, it's that simple!] Of course, he couldn't do it before, but now he's a coercion! 〕
I saw that the original small ball continued to grow larger, until its diameter reached half a meter, and then it began to stretch and deform, and after a while, an "Ios" took shape.
"You know what to do next."
"Yes, master."
"Then I'll leave it to you! Don't let the flaws be discovered. With that, Ios turned and left for the mysterious space.
Soon, Ios once again crossed the boundary of unknown existence and entered the mysterious space again. Although he had seen it once, he was still amazed by the scene in front of him, and the combination of countless large and small balls of light made people feel like they were in a fairy tale, dreamy and blurry.
After quietly admiring the rare scenery for a while, Ios remembered the purpose of his visit, and approached the orbs of light.
"Yesterday I absorbed the smallest one, and there was basically no response, so today I will try a bigger one." As he spoke, he began to look for it, and immediately, a ball of light slightly smaller than a football came into his sight, the right size and the closest, good! That's it!
Ios reached out and touched the ball of light, and as soon as he touched the ball of light, it turned into a ray of light and rushed into his body, and then Ios's face also changed, surprised, confused, and uneasy intertwined, making his expression very complicated.
It turned out that when the ball of light entered his body, his strength had increased as expected, but with it came a broken memory, which was the reason for his sudden change of color.
"Are these orbs of light really souls? Wrong! It's a soul fragment! Feeling the extremely incomplete memory, he judged.
In fact, after Ios went back, he thought about what these light balls were, and he judged that they might be souls or planet origins based on the fact that they could enhance himself, but planet origins shouldn't be so scattered, so souls are more likely.
Ios absorbed more than a dozen football-sized balls of light, felt the same extremely mutilated memories, and made a judgment: the balls of light here are all soul fragments! They left behind only some of the most memorable things of their original owners.
Although only the most impressive memories will be retained, Ios's face is still very ugly, after all, no matter how few memories a ball of light remains, it will be quite large under this huge base.
What's more, those memories are all impressive, and they are all preserved after they die, which contain the strong will of the original owner, and if they are absorbed, it is easy to affect themselves.
If you absorb all the light balls here without doing anything, then you will definitely end up becoming a schizophrenic neurosis, with countless personalities.
If it was the original Ios, there would definitely be no choice but to give up. But now he is different, I saw him raise his hand, and a data ball was generated, and inside was the extra memory after absorbing the light ball.
Ios, who was originally excited to find a way to become stronger, was already a little unable to lift his energy at this time, "It seems that he can only absorb a certain amount and expel the messy memories from his body..."
Although he felt troublesome, Ios did not want to give up this opportunity.
After all, this world is a materialistic world, and there is no sign of the existence of transcendent beings at all, giving up this opportunity to become stronger, maybe he will have to spend the rest of his life in the online world.
I didn't think there was anything wrong with not choosing before, after all, I was dying, and it would be nice to be able to live, but now that I have a choice, I can't give up!
Convinced, Ios began to absorb the orb of light again, and after absorbing a certain amount, he stopped to transfer the remaining memories into the orb of data.
And as he absorbed more and more soul fragments, the interval between his stops became longer and longer, and the originally transparent body slowly solidified.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
After absorbing another soul fragment, Ios found that his surroundings were a little empty, and he had already absorbed all the soul fragments near him. If you look at the huge ball of light from a distance, you'll notice that a small piece of it is missing, making it look like an apple with a hole in the bug.
Looking at a ball of light not far away, Ios didn't move, only to see him staring at the ball of light, wisps of blue light bloomed in his eyes, and the soul ball of light automatically flew towards him.
This is a new ability that he discovered not long ago, and it seems that it is because he has absorbed too many soul fragments, which makes his soul extremely powerful and has been able to influence reality with his spirit.
This discovery also made Ios more motivated, why did so many people play so many garbage page games in the previous life, isn't it that they upgrade quickly, and players are easily addicted to watching the character's combat effectiveness continue to improve, watching the character upgrade, oops, upgraded again, and the time passed without paying attention.
In the same way, Ios felt that his strength had improved significantly, although he felt a little tired, but he was willing to continue to be tired, he waved his hand, and more than a dozen soul light balls flew over.
Just as Ios was obsessed with improving his strength, time flew by, half a year had passed in the outside world, and the ball of light was constantly decreasing, but on this day, Ios stopped repeating things every day.
