Chapter 2: The First Exchange [I]

Naoko Rokuyama entered her iris, fingerprints, voice control, handwriting and blood on one instrument after another, and then entered this research institute reinforced and renovated by an old underground bunker.

A soft, bright white light filled the entire corridor, surrounded by the sound of the clattering footsteps of Naoko Rokuyama and a few research institute personnel. Naoko Rokuyama, who was walking in front, looked calm, but his slightly hurried steps still revealed a trace of his inner anxiety and restlessness at the moment.

It's not the first time Naoko Rokuyama has come to this institute, but there has never been a time when his mind has been so restless and urgent.

Riding down the hidden underground elevator, once again entering the real core of this research institute after many tests, Naoko Rokuyama finally met the person who made him unforgettable, and was full of anxiety at the moment?

Maybe it's people.

A person who is full of metal but has wisdom can barely be said to be a human being, right?

"How's he doing?"

Looking at the person sitting in the transparent isolation room, who was covered in white metal and had a sense of technological beauty all over his body, Naoko Rokuyama asked, the language was not in his native language, but in Greek.

"Very well, this is according to himself. He was very cooperative. ”

One of the researchers who greeted him replied, also in Greek.

"Are you really able to communicate?" Naoko Rokuyama asked again.

"Yes, he's a fast learner, and he can now speak the mainstream languages of at least three or more planets. As you commanded, I didn't expose him to much technology, but he knew some theories. The researcher replied.

"So, let's get started. If nothing else, this will be perhaps the most monumental and valuable meeting of all time. Where did he come from? How did you get to this planet? The strength of civilization technology? Or even the rules of civilization that we have been speculating about? I can't wait. Naoko Rokuyama waved her hand.

The glass of the transparent isolation chamber was changed from one-way to two-way visibility under the operation of the researcher.

"See you again, Your Excellency Miracle?" Naoko Rokuyama beckoned to the metal man inside the glass.

"I know this, miracle is a synonym for me, and Your Excellency is a suffix for respect." The metal man opened his mouth, and his facial features were not the hardness and coldness of metal, but the delicate structure made of countless small parts like a human face that could express many emotions. His voice and language are somewhat muffled and distorted metallic, but they don't prevent people from hearing them clearly. "What do you want to know?"

"Your race, your civilization's level, and the environment in which your civilization was born. Let's talk about that first. Naoko Rokuyama pulled over a chair and sat down, and next to him were two stenographers who were contributing to the exchange.

"My race? According to what you say, it should be a silicon-based civilization. Here we must make a distinction, generally speaking, we should be the silicon-based people in your cognition, and there is a big gap between the kind of robots in your cognition. ”

"What gap?"

"For example, we can't change bodies as much as we want? Nor does it have the ability to be ever-changing. The metal on our bodies is just like yours, a miracle bestowed by the Creator. Lifeless carbon-based life, like you, is just a pile of meat after death, and we are just some metal.

We, like you, change body parts at will, which causes our own rejection. I think you've dissected me more than once, and you know my inner workings very well. In words you can understand, hardware is the viscera organs, the wiring is the blood vessels and nerves, the heart is an energy exporter, and the brain is a memory and a piece of code! There are specific metal cells all over the body!

According to what you said, there are no two people in the world with the same DNA, and there are no two silicon-based people with exactly the same body material. There will also be smart and stupid people among us, depending on how delicate and streamlined the code of his brain is. Everyone's brain is a similar but different system, just like the similar but different systems you have here.

This system may be biased towards research, or it may be biased towards other aspects such as entertainment, thinking, writing, etc. Well, in your words, it's called talent. Replacing the internal hardware at will will inevitably have a certain mismatch, which will bring bad consequences.

We are not cold, emotionless, as tireless as machines, and can work uninterruptedly for a goal, without thinking for ourselves. You - from the information you have shown me, it is obvious that you have mixed a lot of things that cannot be done with us, and use the creations you have created to speculate on the biological characteristics of silicon-based civilizations, which is actually biased, and it will inevitably be quite different from reality.

There will always be a gap between imagination and reality that cannot be crossed!

We can't build a network like yours without any tools, because we don't have this feature ourselves, well, we don't have a network card and a network card to run programs? If we need a network, we can only choose an external one. Just as your brain waves can't communicate with each other, they can only communicate with words, images, and words.

So we can't do some of the graphic materials you showed me, those that can adjust their body structure in an ever-changing way, so that it can automatically evolve into matching connectors without the need for foreign objects, seamlessly connect with the technological excuses of your system, and then constantly download the information you need from the Internet. It is also impossible to communicate without the help of any instruments, without the need for words.

For the time being, we can't upload our own code thinking to the network, and then ensure that we will not die if we are out of the shell, and we can find a random machine shell to input it when necessary, and borrow it to be reborn. and even control a huge number of mechanical armies and so on. We're not that magical. Like you, we also started from ignorance, little by little, and built our own civilization step by step.

We also have to face a lot of dangers. Like the virus that has been plaguing you humans? We also have to face it. Some of our energy supply and demand will also evolve into a certain spirit virus, which conflicts and damages our bodies, and some 'knowledge', which also has the destructive power to damage our code thinking! We can't reload our brains. This 'knowledge' virus is circulating and contagious.

If our minds were all connected to form a network, it would only take a targeted supervirus to wreak havoc on our civilization, causing it to regress dramatically, or even to its demise. This is where the catastrophe of civilization lies, once you don't take one step at a time, but you don't know how to advance or retreat and take one more step, then this step is the possibility of stepping into the abyss, which is far greater than the kingdom of heaven.

Prudence is a virtue for civilization. It is also the foundation of survival! For the time being, closure is a form of protection.

Only when you recognize what I have said will we need to continue to communicate. ”

"As for the other civilizations that you speculate about the existence of the universe, you can't be wrong in the direction of your speculation, because you are using your own history and the history of this planet as a reference, and this is the only valuable example for you to refer to. But have you ever thought that the birth of living beings and civilizations certainly requires the care of the environment and the love of cosmic luck, but the environment in which creatures were born speculated based on your own example may not be suitable for the conditions for the birth of some other civilizations? ”
