Chapter 283: The Heart of the World (2)
The crystalline single-leaf panel is mounted at the end of the center line of a fresco that spans the entire space. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info Here Luo Maria and her assistant stopped.
"What the hell is this drawing?"
"Stories. Romania said, gesturing her finger, "Start in the upper left corner of the wall." The man in the robe, with his hands waving, surrounded by symbols of the elements of water, fire, wind, earth, etc., presumably said that he was a capable person. Then, he set out on a journey. Odin, Anubis, Nemesis, Nuwa, etc., these later images are similar to the legendary gods around the world. ”
"Did he say he saw the gods?"
"Not only the gods, but also griffins, cyclops, strange creatures, earth spiders, and strange creatures or demons and monsters from all over the world. I think it's a sign that he has traveled a lot and learned a lot. Then, I composed these into books. Eventually, the world was born out of the book. ”
"It's full of fantasy. ”
"It's a fantasy game, isn't that a matter of course? ”
The conversation was closed, and Romania and her assistant continued to take a step. They walked through the crystal door into a large, bright space, which was divided into several floors, each with countless curved tables, like a huge master control room. Behind the fantasy-style mural is a scene full of science fiction.
Many people in white coats and uniforms are busy here, and all of them are members of the "Research Institute". At this moment, seeing the figure of Romania, a young man trotted up to meet her.
"Director, didn't you go to the banquet?"
"My name is Yelena and I'm here for me. Compared to this, what is the result of the investigation? Under Romania's inquiry, the other party showed a happy smile.
"Your assumption about this is correct, this is the in-game control center! The most remarkable thing is that we seem to be able to edit it ourselves. ”
"Really!" asked Romania, stunned.
"Really! We've experimented several times today!"
"Experiments? Probably using the data of found NPCs or players, right?"
"Why, we're not mad scientists. Just tried it with some inconsequential props. It turned out that we could edit to a certain extent. ”
"What exactly is the level of what you are referring to? ”
"Well, it seems to be different from thing to thing. We are still investigating further. Let's start with an example. In this world, the seller will be automatically taxed by the system. It seems that we can modify how much of this part is extracted with the PC here, and it can be accurate to any specific city! There are many more! Very interesting!"
"Hmm. And what about creation? Is we making a program that we didn't have in the game and importing it into the game?"
"You've noticed! We're just getting started. And then immediately I found something interesting. ”
"Interesting?"
"Hmm. While not a completely independent program that has never been written before, we tried to introduce a program that gives pencils HP. ”
"Looks like it failed. Lomaria glanced up at a pencil in someone's hand, and even stared at it, but didn't see any hp bar popping out.
"That's what's interesting, Director! The program did work at first, but only for a moment. Then the program is automatically deleted by the system for no apparent reason. And when we tried to import it again, we found that it was rejected by the system. And it's not for this one program, but for the fact that the pencil has an HP bar.,Even if you change the way of writing.,But if the effect remains the same, it will be judged and rejected in an instant.。 How do you think you can explain this phenomenon?"
"This is...... It's like a sapient being?"
"What does that mean?"
"As an item, the durability of a pencil is already equivalent to its HP. So, your act of adding hp bars to it can be said to be completely unnecessary and meaningless. ”
"Definitely. ”
"I think the system should have sensed the meaninglessness of this kind of behavior, and then pulled the results of this kind of editing into the blacklist. But why was this phenomenon allowed in the first place? Could it be that it tried it once because it hadn't tried it, and then came to a meaningless conclusion by trying. It's like the learning behavior of living things. ”
"Definitely. The system is alive, and this is a completely new idea!"
"Then try to prove it. Is there anything else you would like to report?"
"Not for the time being. So, I'll go back and continue my investigation. We'll consider what you said!"
"Hmm!"
Seeing the young man go away, Rosea pondered.
"What are you thinking? ”
"The system is alive. ”
"What did you just say?"
"What if, not a hypothesis? Is the system really alive? What do you think of this?"
"What's the matter?"
"It's the civil war in Hatsuba City. ”
"Ah, this thing. The result isn't too bad. ”
"That's not what I meant. As for me, I've always had a big question about this city. The other main cities all have city halls and NPCs that run the city, but why not? Or is it the way the royal city stands here as it is, but it was hidden until Richard proposed the creation of a municipality a week ago. ”
"You mean it's as if the system has been waiting for us to build a social system. ”
"That's what I think now. If you look back, the cause of this series of events is the murder of Williams. If it hadn't been for that incident, the Garrison Fortress wouldn't have opened, and the Garrison wouldn't have appeared. ”
"Do you want to say that the system induced Williams Alphonse to behave like this?"
"It's not inducing, it's a matter of probability. There are about 10,000 players, and all the system has to do is make the rules and wait, even if it is not Williams, someone else will definitely take the bait at some point. ”
"But if that's the case, why don't you hide the garrison fortress before it is used, as is the case in this royal city?"
"Probably to tell us that the city has administrators. ”
"And the reason for hiding the royal city?"
"It's not a royal city, it's better to say that the buildings and the land are good, these are probably things that were added after reading our consciousness. It's this room to hide. ”
"Doesn't the system want us here? Why is it showing up now?"
"It's not that I don't want to, but the time is not right. If there had been this room at that time, we would have been here to figure out how to get out of trouble, and we would never have lived. And probably can't use it properly. ”
"I see. But why did you build a royal castle on top of it? If the building is good, I wish it could be made smaller. That will shorten the time it takes to get here. ”
"Yes!" said Romania, who had some inspiration from her assistant's words, "why build a royal city if the building is good, and we haven't decided to establish a royal system yet...... No, this is not in response to our decision, but in the hope that we do. But why do you want to...... Is it ......?"
Thinking of something, Lomaria immediately turned and walked towards the entrance.
"I've decided I'm going to attend that boring party!"
