When the virtual space was first developed, it was not so mysterious. At that time, the Second Empire originally wanted to carry out the transformation of the network simulation space and unify the various network data protocols that were chaotic.

At that time, people generally entered the virtual simulation space when playing virtual games or browsing some content, and usually processed information through projection and other methods.

However, with the spread of artificial intelligence, the way information is processed has changed, and it is only natural that the daily office should be included in the immersive environment.

So it didn't take long for the virtual space to be built, and then artificial intelligence began to migrate the network data to the virtual space at that time, and the transition period between the cyberspace and the virtual space was the deep sea at that time, but no one paid attention to it at that time.

But then something very unexpected happened, when someone logged into the virtual space, the real body went into shock, and when the artificial intelligence found out, the neural activity of the brain almost stopped.

But the amazing thing is that the owner of this body is still playing games in the virtual space, and it has no impact at all.

Later, the Beit Republic Research Institute re-normalized the shocking body and let the owner of the body go offline, but there were no problems except for a little discomfort.

This has made people realize that there may be secrets hidden in the virtual space, and at least the thinking transformation tools have been developed based on this.

It took some time before some people began to suggest that there might be a material basis for non-data interaction facilities in the virtual space.

In other words, in addition to the usual data servers, there is something that people don't know about and has a material nature that acts as the cornerstone of the entire virtual space.

Later, the cornerstone system of virtual space was developed under the influence of this, and one of the purposes was to explore the material basis of virtual space that has not been completely found until now.

However, the long-term exploration has still yielded something, at least the Bait people have narrowed the scope of the existence of this material basis in the virtual space to the deep sea.

Many people come here to take advantage of the unique properties of the deep sea to find the so-called inner depths or just to see the scenery.

And artificial intelligence is a part of the perennial residence here, through the real world virtual space cornerstone system to explore the security of the universe where Beit is located.

Like Wang Qian and Lele, they naturally belong to the former.

From the very beginning of the beach, I walked into the sea, and soon the sea water passed through Wang Gan's calves, but Wang Qian did not feel a trace of coldness, but had a feeling of nothingness and unreality, and even the induction of the soles of his feet was a little vague.

"Lele, how do you feel?" Wang Qian asked.

At this time, Lele had turned into a vague humanoid white shadow in Wang Gan's opinion, floating on the sea.

"I see that you've become something like a mosaic, and it's the kind that is transparent.

According to the description of the deep-sea exploration guide, it should be the 'deforming' stage now, and when you are in the sea, you should enter the 'abstract' stage. Lele said.

So the two continued to walk towards the sea, Wang Gan didn't know how long he had been doing, but he felt very long, I don't know if the beach here was particularly gentle or how, Wang Qian felt that the sea water had not reached his waist for at least an hour or two.

At this time, Wang Gan looked at Lele again, and he couldn't even maintain his human form, and he could barely distinguish between his limbs and torso.

After watching Lele, Wang Gan continued to walk forward, but this time the progress was very fast, Wang Qian felt that it was only a few steps away, and the sea water was already up to his neck.

Looking at Lele again, it almost turned into a ball of light.

But this time Wang Qian didn't say anything, and continued to walk into the deep sea.

When the sea water was not overhead, Wang Gan felt a trance, and when he came to his senses again, he was already some distance from the sea. Looking at Lele again, it is clearer than just now, although it is still a ball of light, it has facial features and facial expressions.

"Lele, how are you feeling now, I feel that I am no longer comfortable." Wang Qian looked down at himself, it was still a clear humanoid body, but it felt completely different, and a light and fluttering illusory feeling filled his body.

"I see you turn into a ball of light...... Well, it's about the same size as mine. Lele said.

This made Wang Qian a little surprised, words like 'almost' are rarely said in the mouth of artificial intelligence, judging from Lele's words just now, Lele should have changed a lot.

So the two of them continued to swim forward in the sea, at least Wang Gan thought so, whenever he had the idea of moving forward, he would see his body swimming forward.

To say that at this time in the sea, Wang Qianshi didn't believe it, even he now felt some of the sense of nothingness that Lele said, at least he didn't perceive his body, but he didn't have to breathe at all under the surface of the sea.

After I don't know how long, Wang Gan found that Lele suddenly slowed down, so Wang Qian asked: "Lele, why did you slow down, did you find something?" ”

"It seems that the artificial intelligence in the deep-sea exploration guide is more likely to detect reality discomfort in the deep sea, which makes no sense." Lele said thoughtlessly.

"Now we have reached the self-growing structure promenade of the cornerstone system. Here, in the sparse outer area of the entire virtual space, artificial intelligence can easily perceive this sense of weakness and even vulnerability that is different from the normal virtual space.

Like I'm reinforcing some weak areas right now, and according to the expedition guide, I'm reinforcing weak areas here, and the real-world cornerstone system will also react. ”

Wang Gan nodded, he didn't know what to say, after all, although he had a sense of weakness, he didn't know where it was weaker, and it was not like Lele who could still carry out the so-called reinforcement.

The two continued to walk forward, and Lele suddenly said, "There should be artificial intelligence not far ahead to stop us from advancing." ”

Wang Qian nodded, and continued with Lele Wang Qian. Perhaps Lele had spoken first, but Wang Gan felt that soon he saw someone stopping them in front.

"Wang Qian, Lele. Hello, I am a member of the Deep Sea Force 672. In your current state, you can only go so far for your deep-sea exploration. You'll have to leave here in a day at the latest, and head to the Psychiatric Center for an assessment of your deep-sea expedition. 672 said.

"Especially you, Wang Gan. Because you have recently received a letter of advice from Xu Jing, according to the above content, your psychological evaluation will be more complicated. ”

"Well, Your Excellency 672. I have only one question, and that is how do we determine a day here? Wang Qian was not interested in the warning in front of 672, and instead asked an inconsequential question.

"I don't think you've read the deep-sea exploration guide seriously. When we consciously say a quantitative concept, the person who receives the concept will engage in conceptual unity. Soon we will know when the day is long, and until then, I don't recommend waiting with you. 672 said.

Wang Qian shrugged his shoulders and stopped talking.

"Why have we been exploring the deep sea for so long without results, 672?" Lele asked.

"I don't know much about that." 672 touched his head.

"First, it is indeed easier for artificial intelligence to perceive the cornerstone system of virtual space in reality. I believe you and I both have a feeling that this is the peripheral area of the cornerstone system, and there is a thinning of the self-growing structure. This feeling makes us lose sight of the deep sea itself.

Second, the deep sea area is a bit of a philosophical conceptuality. Here, something metaphysical is expressed through some kind of more abstract image. And this kind of philosophical or conceptual stuff is difficult to explain.

Some people even think that everyone in the deep sea is actually an individual, and that the connection of three consciousnesses like ours is not more than one individual sending and receiving information to the other two.

And in this kind of sending and receiving information, there is a large probability error. As a result, the validity of the information will decay rapidly, which also causes problems for exploring the deep sea. 672 explained.

"Well, the day has come. Please come back, both of you. 672 said suddenly.
