478, four-dimensional octopus
At this moment, Situ is standing in the wind, leading his "clansmen" to wait.
Aoki could feel some subtle changes in the nearby mental force field, but Situ's control was obviously very subtle, and it didn't affect anyone other than him and the wild man at all.
He saw that the scepter in Situ's hand glowed silver, and its shape was somewhat similar to the jet-black Shenmu staff he had seen, but the material was obviously different. Intuitively, that one is wood, and this one is metal or stone.
The savages moved regularly under Situ's command, and it was hard to see anything from their formation, as Petrux said, it was a plate of loose sand. But if you use your spiritual power to sense it carefully, you will find that the position of the savage is very subtle, and the spiritual force field twists and blends between them into a strange state of connection.
Aoki thought of the octopus again, and thought of the Internet. He already knew the tentacles of the Internet, and he also caught one in the basement of the Mei's Experimental Building, and he had reached some kind of agreement with the ghost, and even risked making it possible to evolve itself, he just wanted to know, where is the brain of the Internet?
Su Huilan suddenly asked him, "When these wild people were controlled by the scepter, were they voluntary or forced?" Do you think they are an independent consciousness at this time, or are they part of a communal consciousness? β
"I don't really know about that, but empirically, their state should be similar to being hypnotized," Aoki said. In a group real-life dream, with its own independent consciousness, but subject to unified scheduling and moderation, it is more appropriate to use the octopus as an analogy, I can't think of a more vivid statement. β
Aoki has already come out of Su Huilan's dream, and there is no need to avoid Situ from talking about this kind of topic.
Su Huilan pondered for a while: "This is already a bit of a high-dimensional creature. β
"High-dimensional creatures?"
"Yes, you think, the neural structure of the octopus is actually not complicated, but it is scattered, it has a main brain and eight accessory brains, each tentacle can be seen as a secondary brain with an independent nerve center, but no one will treat this tentacle as an independent life form, but who knows if it has consciousness?
If this tentacle is conscious, think further, what if this tentacle is a person?
If you think of a group of hundreds of savages as an octopus, each person is equivalent to a tentacle, but you don't think of these people as living beings, do you?
With only a few nerve fibers connecting the octopus tentacles and the brain, most of the inefficient information can be filtered out, and only the high-level instructions of the brain are received, while the low-level information is analyzed and made by the tentacles themselves to make behavioral decisions. So the octopus can prey on its own without going through the brain, but by its tentacles.
Many tentacles are connected to form a communal consciousness with the octopus's brain, which is an advanced life. In the same way, the bodies and brains of many savages, through some kind of mind control, are connected to another advanced brainβ"
Su Huilan glanced at Situ, "Is that a high-dimensional life, or a model of a four-dimensional octopus?" β
"Four-dimensional octopus?" The people next to him felt a little panicked when they heard this.
Before Aoki could imagine the octopus, the coal boss on his head had already shouted, "Wow, cool!" How about making a plate of 4D octopus skewers? β
The crow waited for a long time, but he didn't see anyone in him, so he had to shut his mouth boringly.
Mrs. Larry, who had been listening, chimed in, "That's an interesting idea!" Four-dimensional octopus - that is, higher-dimensional beings may be composed of three-dimensional beings like us, and our consciousness is a "sub-consciousness" of high-dimensional beings scattered in the universe, and our bodies are just their "neurons" or tentacles!
It would be interesting if there really was such life in the universe. Its brain lives in four dimensions or higher, while its invisible tentacles reach out to the whole universe, forming intelligent beings that think they are independent in the three-dimensional world! β
Su Huilan added: "It may also be able to transcend time and space, and its tentacles reach not only to every corner of space, but also to the timeline that we cannot reach. She looked at Situ and the wild man who was mobilizing and deliberately raised her tone, "For example, this brain may be able to control a wild man here, a cat on Earth, and a Triassic dinosaur at the same time!" β
Boris listened to it for a long time and didn't understand, and said impatiently: "You scientists are really interesting, and now you are at war!" Do you understand how to fight? When I was fighting, I still had the heart to talk about it there, what a four-dimensional octopus! What a high-dimensional life! So tell me, where is the brain you're talking about? Can it help us get rid of the wild people over there and let me get a good night's sleep? β
When Boris said this, everyone fell silent and stopped talking. Indeed, it is a bit out of place to say these now.
Petru agreed with Boris's words and said: "Boris, do you want to kill him with me?" We've got guns, and if Mr. Stone drags that old wizard in tow, we'll kill him without a piece of armor! β
Boris said disdainfully: "Get out, who wants to be with a notorious pirate!" β
Petru took out a grenade and swapped it in his hand a few times: "You will be willing." β
Boris pouted, but there was a light in his eyes.
Just when everyone was silent, Situ suddenly turned around and said, "Do you know Boltzmann's brain?" β
"What?"
Whether it was Aoki or Su Huilan, and Mrs. Larry, of course, they all knew about Boltzmann's brain, but they didn't know what Situ meant by saying this suddenly.
"Four-dimensional octopus, your analogy is on point! It's lying right on the Milky Way, its tentacles reaching through the black hole and the fog of time into your brain...... Each of us is its tentacles! β
After Situ finished speaking, he turned around and stood there motionless, leaving only a back, as if he had never moved, and what he just said was just an illusion of everyone.
Aoki looked up at the sky, and there was no Milky Way in the sky, only a red sun that had just risen. Strangely, behind the sun, there is a small sun.
β¦β¦
Due to the addition of the third wave of wildlings, the original balance of confrontation was broken, leading to a moment of chaos, but the people of all three parties quickly calmed down, each took their own place, and a new balance was formed. This balance is more stable than the previous balance, because everyone is worried about whether the other two parties will unite if they make any changes.
No one spoke again, not even the savages howled. The atmosphere in the mountains and forests became very strange, the air was dull and solemn, and the wind seemed to be frightened by this atmosphere, and did not dare to come, only shivering in the treetops far away.
The crow scratched the feathers on his neck with his claws, and cried out in dissatisfaction: "I didn't eat breakfast, and I came out to fight!" β
Its voice was originally not loud, but at this moment, it seemed to be amplified more than ten times by a megaphone, and it buzzed in people's ears, and even it was startled: "Wow! What's going on?! β
Its voice was louder than before, like a thunderbolt in the mountains and forests.
Boom, the original calm and balance were broken.
The great wizards of the three parties raised the scepter in their hands first, and the stable spiritual force field in the valley suddenly became chaotic.
