October 31.

The door of the house was opened, and Huang Si held a very long pole and sent it into the darkness outside the door.

He can now make not only metal, but also metal rods with very high strength.

And now Huang Si's strength recovers quickly, the upper limit is high, and his consciousness is strong, making a metal pole is nothing.

The difficulty is to make a new one at any time, supplement the tail of this metal rod, and it must be hollow, and there can be no metal fatigue or breakage.

Huang Si placed a bracket on the ground, and the bracket had two rings on it, so that the hollow metal rod could be passed through the two rings and erected.

Then all Huang Si had to do was step on the foot of the bracket and push the metal rod into the darkness outside.

After pushing a lot, the metal rod at hand was not long enough, so Huang Si generated another section and continued to push forward.

He pushed forward about 10 meters in total, and still didn't hit any obstacles.

When the 10-meter-long metal pole shook, it still didn't hit anything.

Fortunately, the physical properties in the dark seem a bit peculiar. In the room where Huang Si was, gravity was normal, and once the object left the room and disappeared into the darkness, it was no longer affected by gravity.

If it weren't for the fact that the metal pole that entered the outside would not be subject to gravity, Huang Si would not have been able to hold the pole for a long time.

"What is the nature of the darkness outside? Defying gravity? Could it be another space? ”

Huang Si could only speculate, but if he was asked to go out and take a look, he would never dare, even if he poked his head out.

It's still safe in this room after all, what if it's dangerous to go out?

The darkness of the unknown is always terrifying.

Huang Si withdrew the metal rod.

When he received a small half, Huang Si was stunned.

This...... The metal rod is a bit long, and there is not enough space at home to fit it!

After thinking for a moment, Huang Si directly threw the metal pole out of the gate.

He is recovering so fast now, it is equivalent to being rich and capricious! What is a metal rod, he Huang someone only needs to snap his fingers, and a group of metal rods will be in place in minutes.

However, the attempt to stab the darkness with a metal rod was a failure.

It seems that in order to detect the darkness outside, you have to use some tools, such as cameras?

Huang Si has a camera on his laptop, and as long as he imitates the structure of this component, he can find a way to build a standalone camera himself.

Thinking of it, Huang Sixian spent some time studying the structure of the camera, but fortunately, his soul strength increased a lot during this time, and he could still pass through the plastic elements.

Even the metal structure inside the camera, he can find a way to circumvent it and then penetrate through the gap to observe.

On November 3, Huang Si made an independent camera out, then plugged it in, connected the network cable, clamped it to the top of the metal pole, and then leaned out of the door.

Huang Si set up the metal pole first, and then looked at the laptop next to him.

The laptop is showing the monitoring window of the external camera, which was originally the scene of the home, but as soon as you go out of the door, the camera is dark, and only a dark one is left on the screen.

Huang Si continued to manipulate the metal pole to move the camera, and after a long while, the darkness still did not change.

Suddenly.

There was an extremely obvious vibration in Huang Si's hand.

Something the camera hits!

But he didn't hear anything.

Huang Si looked at the darkness outside the house, there was something in there, it should be hard enough, otherwise it wouldn't hit it and make the camera vibrate.

He took the camera back and it didn't seem to be damaged.

Then, Huang Si took the camera off and used the creative force to add a curved shape to the front end of the metal pole.

It was a hook, and Huang Siwei hooked the unknown object outside.

The hook soon touched the object in the same spot outside. Huang Si tried several times but couldn't hook it back, and the thing seemed to be smooth and seemed to form an elongated shape.

"......" felt the shape of the items outside, and Huang Si had a bad association.

Next, Huang Si tied a magnet to his metal pole, and sure enough, he sucked back the things he had taken outside.

There is nothing unusual about this thing, it is the long pole that Huang Si threw outside the door a few days ago.

Huang Si dragged the long pole into the room as much as he could, until the long pole reached the corner of the room and could no longer be dragged.

He found that the long pole was not damaged in the slightest, and was in the same state as when he threw it.

"Hypothesis 1: The darkness outside does not erode objects."

"Hypothesis 2, what is thrown out will disappear. Because the first time I used the long pole, I didn't touch anything, but the second time I was able to hit the long pole. But I've already thrown a lot of garbage out, and there's no reason why I can't touch it at all the first time. ”

"Hypothesis 3, in order to satisfy both of the above hypotheses, I have to assume that what is thrown out disappears on a regular basis, and today it has not yet reached that time of regularity."

Huang Si stopped his pen and looked at the notes he had recorded, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

He had always thought that he was the only one here, but if that was the case, if there was nothing else but darkness outside, then why would the garbage thrown out disappear automatically?

And the steel rod that was just thrown out is still there, or even intact?

Outside, is someone cleaning regularly?

He has been here for more than three months, has he been under surveillance?

It's scary to think about.

"Let's assume that there are no intelligence in the outside world, otherwise it is impossible for me to live here for more than three months without any traces at all. It's more likely that the darkness outside has some sort of cleaning mechanism that I don't know about, which caused the garbage to go missing. ”

Huang thought about it, and still wrote down such a paragraph with a pen.

Man is a creature that needs to live on hope and faith. If he is afraid in the face of the unknown and defeated by his own psychology, what can he rely on to live?

Faced with this anomalous phenomenon, Huang Si thought for a long time and decided to continue the development of new products.

For example, build a robot that can move freely in the dark and let it explore for itself?

As a social animal with a master's degree in computer science, Huang Si can give books on learning and understanding artificial intelligence, and can also write chatbots by himself. But it's too hard for him to actually be a moving robot.

Many people who don't understand the IT industry will subconsciously think that robots and computers are similar things, but in fact they are too much different.

Huang Si did study electronic circuits or something, but it was also a course from the distant undergraduate years, and it was far behind the times, and it is no longer of the slightest use.

And before building a robot that can move freely, Huang Si at least has to light up these tech trees:

Integrated circuits, CPUs, motherboards, operating systems (for robots), robotic arms, ......etc.

He only has experience in making batteries now, and he doesn't know how to do something as complex and sophisticated as integrated circuits.

Moreover, he only has two computers now, and both of them hold important information, and it is impossible to cut open them for him to see.

If Huang Si wants to explore the mysteries of the computer, the first thing he needs to solve is that his soul strength is not strong enough to penetrate the metal, and the penetration range is only a few millimeters, so small that it is useless.

Huang Si directly took a pen and paper to make a statistic, and then realized in despair that there were too many things waiting for him to do.

……

November 26th.

Huang Si looked up from the computer screen, and there was still information about integrated circuits on the screen.

His eyes were blank, his eyes were glazed, and he didn't want to move when he was spread out in the computer chair.

In the past 20 days, he has roughly gone through all the information on the integrated circuits that can be found on the computer and on the bookshelf, and has also tried to make a few circuits according to the examples in the book.

It's too hard, it's really too hard. It's no wonder that the students majoring in electronics look like they are all looking at the dishes, which is much worse than their software engineering majors.

Now, Huang Si has almost finished reading so many materials and video tutorials, but he is getting more and more tired.

At the beginning, as long as he was tired of studying, he would do something else, such as playing a stand-alone game for a while, watching a movie again, practicing his consciousness strength for a while, making some daily necessities, making some logic loops for the AI, and letting the AI chat with him.

At first, Huang Si was still in high spirits, but slowly, as time passed, many things became boring.

Sometimes I don't want to do anything, I just want to lie down.

Huang Si was dumbfounded in the computer chair for a while before slowly getting up and turning off all the integrated circuit data.

He clicked on the AI's chat interface.

At this time, Huang Si overthrew his artificial intelligence and rewrote his character, and the database continued to use the original.

He is already tired of the aesthetics of the two-dimensional beautiful girl, and he no longer needs the roles of Meow Meow Sauce and Sister Sunshine to comfort himself.

Huang Si has now rewritten 12 AI personalities.

Each personality has its own personality and behavior.

Huang Si even wrote them a setting of a background world, and the current setting is a world called "Mountains and Seas", which is roughly similar to the oriental fantasy style.

Of course, because I just started doing it, now these 12 artificial intelligence are stupid, and they can't be called real intelligence.

However, Huang Si arranged them in the background world, and then set them up to load machine learning systems for self-learning and self-evolution.

This machine learning system was also copied from the data just now, and it is still extremely rigid and rigid, and needs to be further adjusted.

Huang Siwei wants to pinch a group of artificial intelligence that looks like real humans.

For this reason, Huang Si also gave these 12 artificial intelligence better names and set their genders.

There are 6 women and 6 men, which is relatively balanced.

Huang Si opened the map window in the artificial intelligence system, and under his setting, the artificial intelligence can move in the virtual map, and all this just happens in the artificial intelligence system, so Huang Si can monitor it at any time.

The 12 symbols move around the map in twos and threes, and there are also people who are not with others, but alone.

Now these AIs are so stupid that they don't even know how to speak.

Huang Si opened the software to see what they were doing, just like having a pet, it was quite fun.

After watching the artificial intelligence stupid for a long time, Huang Si went to work on something else.

Life has to be lived.
