Water Cloud Federation Capital Science and Education Star, Force Academy.

The students of the Dark Force class stood with their heads held high on the grass, and they all had the air of a military man. has been trained by special forces instructors for so long, and he has the demeanor of a soldier in sitting, walking and lying up.

Li Hao explained a Force formula to them, "The tricks and steps have been explained in detail, and I only emphasize one point now, the 'Force Lightning' formula is extremely powerful, and it must be practiced in the special practice field of our class, otherwise it is easy to hurt others and ourselves." Whoever it is, for whatever reason, as long as it doesn't release the Force lightning in the driving range, I'll pack up and leave. Do you understand? ”

"Understood!" The students' responses were unified and resounding.

"Okay, let's go to the driving range and practice."

The students couldn't wait to run to the driving range to try out the new Force formula.

Li Hao said to his assistant Miss Du: "Arrange an extra hour every day to practice the Force Lightning ......" He suddenly received information from the wormhole intelligent system and did not continue.

Miss Du from the Dark Force class replied, "Okay, let's add an extra hour of intensive training in the morning." ”

"That's it, I still have something to do, let's go first." Li Hao hurriedly got on the flying car and returned to his villa outside the school.

The wormhole intelligent system rarely takes the initiative to call himself, this time I don't know what happened, as soon as he returned to the villa, he immediately contacted the intelligent system.

I only listened to the intelligent system: "I scan the Overworld and the planes near here about every other year......"

Li Hao understands that the meaning of the word "nearby" in the mouth of the intelligent system refers to the plane with the weakest spatial barrier. This plane is the easiest to traverse, and even wormholes will occasionally naturally form in the universe to connect this plane.

“…… It's a regular scan, oh, and to make sure these two dimensional worlds are safe, I start a plane scan every once in a while to see if there's any threat from the other. “

Li Hao was shocked and said, "Is it dangerous?" ”

"It's not that there's a danger, but there's an opportunity, about your chance to form a robot army."

"Oh? What's going on? ”

The villa is dimly lit, revealing a holographic video of a cosmic background. In the video, a white planet gradually expands to fill the entire space, a snow-covered planet, a vast endless ice field with a thick layer of snow on it.

As the camera moved, the perspective swept over the planet and was cast into space again, and Li Hao immediately saw a huge satellite, estimated to be about the same as the moon. The camera moved closer to the satellite, and Li Hao was immediately stunned, this was not a natural satellite, but an artificial celestial body.

Near this artificial celestial body, there is a dense group of space giants, stretching for hundreds of thousands of kilometers, covering the entire space. Judging by the appearance of these giant ships, there are various classifications, among which there are mining, industry, and combat.

The wormhole intelligent system said: "This is a country in the early stage of a level 5 civilization, and it has chosen to survive virtually, let me explain to you what virtual survival is." It is to enter the virtual network collectively, and all social activities are carried out in the virtual network. Their bodies are frozen in a nutrient solution, their metabolism is minimized, and only their brains are active. ”

Li Hao felt a little incredible, and said: "Collectively abandon the real world and enter the virtual world." Why did they choose this way? ”

The wormhole intelligence system said: "In this way, the resource consumption of the entire race is extremely low, and almost no material is consumed. Moreover, they are frozen in a nutrient solution, their metabolism is reduced to a minimum, and their lifespan can be greatly extended as long as the brain is active. In the virtual network, there is no shortage of all kinds of entertainment and spiritual life, and you can also live in a large-scale virtual online game.

"This race is highly similar to humans, and normally, their average lifespan is only slightly longer than that of the Water Cloud Federation, that is, about four thousand years. However, after virtualization survival, the lifespan can be extended to more than 100,000 years. You can also seek satisfaction in the virtual game, everyone can be the emperor, manage the NPC people, and the concubines of the three palaces and six courtyards are like clouds......"

Li Hao said: "This ...... It's all virtual. ”

"In terms of experience, there is no difference between the virtual and the real, and even more than the real one, it is even more sensual pleasure than the real one."

"What about real-world technology?"

The intelligent system said: "It can no longer develop, after the survival of virtualization, technology will stagnate, and unless the virtualization of the entire society is lifted, it will never be possible to promote a higher level of civilization." Scientific research experiments with innovative surnames cannot be carried out in a virtual network. ”

"Isn't this a self-defeating evolutionary path?"

"Yes, but as far as individual lives are concerned, they can spend a lifetime in a virtual game and experience everything that can be experienced in the human world."

Li Hao was stunned for a long time, and at first he felt that in the virtual world that the entire race was addicted to, he disregarded reality like an ostrich, and it was a very pitiful and pathetic race. But think about it again, compared to the fact that human beings have only a few decades of time at present, even after the promotion of Yaochi jade liquid, it will only be more than a hundred years.

And in this extremely limited time, we have to worry about housing prices, drug costs, pensions and other issues in reality, what can we get in the end of a lifetime? When the time comes, the eyes flash, and the crematorium is burned to ashes, what will be left?

In contrast, this virtualized survival race has at least a long time to enjoy, living a hundred lifetimes in different games, and each life can be exciting.

When I look at others myself, I feel that they are pitiful and pathetic; Maybe people look at the human race and think that human beings are even more pitiful and pathetic.

But the virtual survival of the entire race does not seem to be a healthy state of mind either.

Li Hao shook his head, to consider whether this kind of virtual survival should be necessary, then to ask what is the purpose of life, or what is the ultimate meaning of civilization promotion. This kind of question, which involves the outlook on life and philosophy, is really too profound. This kind of problem is still to wait for your Force to be completed, and you have endless time, and then think about it slowly.

Li Hao touched his chin and said, "Forget it, don't talk about this." Or back to the point, why is this my opportunity to form a robot army? ”

"They are an early level 5 civilization, and their technical level is higher than that of the Water Cloud Gang. Moreover, the things in the real world of this race are basically handled by intelligent robots, and their robot reflexes and judgments are much higher than those of other civilizations. Even if the Water Cloud Federation is promoted to a level 5 civilization, it is far inferior to this race in terms of intelligent robots. ”

Li Hao understood a little and said, "You mean, the intelligent robot technology of this race is very useful to me and can be used to form a robot army?" ”

"Yes, if you obtain the robot technology of this race, you will really have the capital to fight against the Hoin Empire. Your previous toss and really encounter the Hoin Empire is still not enough to see. First of all, there is the issue of population base, even if you raise the military level of the Overworld Earth to level 3 civilization, what can it be? At most, it's the same as the Hoin Empire. But the population of the Hoin Empire is countless times larger than that of Earth. ”

Li Hao was silent, this is a fact, if there is one top military genius per billion people, then there are only seven geniuses on the earth. But with the same probability, how many Hoin Empires can there be? The population base is too far apart.

To fill this gap, Li Hao is ready to rely on robots, but the resilience of robot troops is always a problem.

"But this is a level 5 civilization, since the management is handed over to the intelligent machine, there must be extremely complete protection measures, and all kinds of problems will be considered." Li Hao frowned.

"All artificial intelligence has flaws, and whether you can obtain these technologies depends on the skills of you and your beautiful academician."

Indeed, if he relied on himself, Li Hao would be helpless against a level 5 civilization intelligent machine, but Bei Yanqin is different, the force in the field of wisdom, only with her can she have a chance of success.

Knowledgeable to the point of Pei Yanqin, proficient in all professional fields, well-read and memorized, unforgettable, learning any knowledge is very simple. But Bei Yanqin still has the best field, that is, artificial intelligence, she is a super hacker.

The Water Cloud Federation, the Jinyan Empire, and the Xiaodi Republic, if you want to pick one of the strongest hackers among the three major civilizations, it must be Bei Yanqin.

The Water Cloud Federation is in the middle of a level 4 civilization, and this race is in the early stage of a level 5 civilization, and the gap is still quite large. But the Force has always been able to create miracles, and hackers like Bei Yanqin, even the ghost ship of the Wanhong Empire are extremely fearful, and there is still a lot of chance against the rigid brain.

Li Hao dialed Bei Yanqin's private communicator, and it was still the same audio and video message: "Ah Hao, now that the research of ghost energy has entered a critical juncture, it is inconvenient for me to contact the outside world for the time being." It is estimated that it will take three months to six months of lockdown, and I will contact you when I come out......"

Li Hao also left a message: "I have something to tell you, if you are free, give me a call." ”

Pei Yanqin is still studying ghost energy during the closed period, cutting off contact with the outside world, and I don't know how long it will take to come out. It is also inconvenient for Li Hao to say more in the message, after all, things about level 5 civilization are still very sensitive, and it is not suitable to talk about this in civilian communications that are not strong in secrecy.

Li Hao had no choice but to collect the information of that race by himself first, and wait for Pei Yanqin to come out.

didn't wait long, two days later, Li Hao was sorting out the materials in the study of the villa, and his communicator rang, it was Bei Yanqin who called. Li Hao immediately connected, and Bei Yanqin's slender figure appeared in front.

Her beautiful face was a little tired, but after seeing Li Hao, she showed her usual smile. "If you're looking for me at this time, there must be something urgent."

"Is the communicator easy to talk to?"

Bei Yanqin blinked with a pair of big eyes and said, "If it's a confidential matter, you can go back to the Force Academy, which has a military-encrypted communication phone." (To be continued.) )
