Looking at the silent Taling, Victor sneered in his heart, and was about to continue speaking, but heard Taling say: "I retrieved X-3 information from the master's memory, but I can't describe the connection between X-3 and me at this time, please open my independent wisdom master, I will further analyze the master's problem." ”

Victor hesitated.

From the beginning when he was forced into the overlimit state, to the time he entered the will space of this alchemy tower, everything was very strange, and he felt that there was something in it that he didn't know, which made him very uneasy and tried to find the truth.

Victor had to figure out two questions: first, why did X-3 get out of control, and second, why did Taling be able to read all of his memories?

In the later communication with Taling, Victor had some guesses, Taling is X-3! And X-3 is autonomous!

If that's the case, it's a serious problem, which means that X-3 is fighting him for control of his body, which he can't tolerate.

And now Victor's request is very entangled, he wants to find out the truth of the matter, but he is also afraid that this is a trap that Taling has dug for him.

"What will happen to you when you turn on your own intelligence?" Victor frowned and continued.

"When I turn on my autonomous intelligence, my will side will be loaded with more content, and only then will I be able to analyze complex problems and give the results of the analysis. Also take the initiative to make suggestions to the host. Ta Ling replied with a smile.

"What's the will side?" Victor keenly grasped a key word.

"Dear master, the will side is the component that makes up the soul. Taling's dull answer made Victor very depressed.

"What kind of changes will my control over the space of the will occur after I turn on my autonomous intelligence?"

"Dear host, no changes. ”

After a period of trial and reflection, Victor decided to turn on Taling's autonomous intelligence.

Because, even if he doesn't turn on Taling's autonomous intelligence, Victor can't change anything, and there is still a risk of being controlled. However, if it is turned on, it can get worse or better, which is an unknown change.

Now, Victor needs a change, so he decides to take a gamble.

"Turn on your autonomous intelligence. Victor suppressed the apprehension in his heart and commanded calmly.

"Yes, my esteemed master. After Taling finished speaking, his image of Edwin began to fade into nothingness, and eventually slowly disappeared before Victor's eyes.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the old scholar gradually appeared in front of Victor again, and smiled at Victor and said, "Hello, my esteemed master, Taling will serve you wholeheartedly. ”

Looking at Taling who smiled and saluted him, Victor was very surprised to find that Taling was a little different from his dull appearance just now, and now it looked like a real person.

"My esteemed master, you will be glad that I have opened up my own wisdom. Can I change my image until I answer your question?" Taling pleaded with Victor.

"Please. For such a small request, Victor did not care.

Under Victor's gaze, Taling gradually transformed into a middle-aged man in a suit with a thin face. If Victor could know this person, he would find out that this person was Qin Feng, the founder of the Day Change Project.

"It's a good feeling to be able to think for yourself! I'm sorry, my master, please forgive me for my gaffes. After the middle-aged man took a deep breath and reveled in it, he bowed and apologized to the uncertain Victor.

"Now, can you answer my question?" Victor waved his hand at him.

"Absolutely, I'll answer your confusion and give you more useful information, but it may take a little time. ”

Ta Ling straightened the collar of his suit and continued to Victor, "Before I answer to your questions about what exactly am I, where did I come from, what is my purpose, why does X-3 force you into an overlimiting state, why do you enter the will space of the Alchemy Tower, let me describe to you my understanding of the laws of this world, which will help you clearly understand those trivial questions. ”

"Can you know what I'm thinking?" said Victor's question directly, shaking him up.

Victor knew that Taling could read his memories, but it made him even more creepy to read the thoughts he kept generating.

"You don't have to be nervous at all, you have the highest authority in this space of will. Moreover, my side of will also dictates that I must be absolutely faithful to you. ”

Taling saw Victor's concern, and then explained: "In this space of will, our consciousness is connected, it is two-way, I can read your memories and thoughts, and you can do the same, but when intelligent beings like us face information, we tend to read it first and then generalize it. Human beings, on the other hand, are accustomed to following the chronological order in which things develop, first inductive and then read. So the way you read my messages from me is by asking questions, and I have to answer them truthfully. This difference is simply due to the difference in how it is read. ”

Victor breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Taling's explanation, and he was about to ask Taling if he could read the information directly like Taling.

"Humans are used to the way they read information, and if you were to read first and then generalize, as we do, I think you're going to be mentally deranged by the sheer volume of information. Of course, if you insist, I will follow your will and let you read all the information directly. ”

"Forget it, let's go back to the question we just asked. Victor hurriedly waved his hand, when he first crossed over, the little baron's broken memories kept hitting his nerves, and if it wasn't for X-3 helping him shield and sort out those memory fragments, he would have gone crazy a long time ago.

Taling pointed to a strong man in front of Victor and said, "Master, this alchemy creature reveals the secrets of the laws of the world. ”

"This alchemical human being is composed of the will side and the four elements of earth, fire, wind, and water. ”

"For human beings, the volitional side is the aggregate of memories, emotions, knowledge, skills, wisdom, character, and habits, similar to the worldview, values, and outlook on life of the master in the previous world. ”

"The will side determines the cognition and behavior of alchemy life, and the will side of this alchemy creature is loaded, they absolutely obey the orders of their master, they are not afraid of death, and they work hard. At the same time, the Alchemy Tower also sets up a total of seven loadable skills for alchemy humans to build, plant and collect crops, make equipment, master long weapons, master short weapons, master long-range weapons, and master shields. ”

"By the way, the skills recorded by X-3 can also be loaded into the will side reserve of the Alchemy Tower through this initial setup. ”

"The first is the fire element, the fire element builds the soul fire of the alchemy creature, the soul fire provides energy for the operation of the will side, and when the soul fire and the will side are combined, the soul of this alchemy creature is formed. When the soul fire is extinguished, the will side of this alchemical life will fall silent and gradually disintegrate. Therefore, the Alchemy Pagoda stipulates that the fire element attribute of alchemy life is spirit. ”

"The second is the earth element, which constitutes the material body of alchemy life, which determines the size, strength, physique, and endurance of alchemy creatures. The Alchemy Pagoda refers to the alchemy creature earth elemental attribute as the physique. ”

"The third is the wind element, the wind element has no body, but it determines the alchemy life's reception, processing and feedback to the outside world, which is manifested as the vision, hearing, smell, reaction speed, sensitivity, etc. of the alchemy creatures. ”

"Finally, there is the water element, and the water element attribute only determines the lifespan of alchemy creatures. That's why it's called life by the Alchemy Tower. ”

"On the surface, the water element is the most unwanted attribute of alchemy creatures, but in fact, on the contrary, the water element attribute is the key to distinguish alchemy creatures from alchemy puppets, and the water element has the form of the earth element and the flow of the wind element at the same time, I guess it is the water element that unites the two mutually exclusive elements of earth and wind, so that the alchemy creatures have a strong body and flexible perception at the same time. ”

"You're detailed, but what does it have to do with my question?" Victor was a little puzzled.

"Don't worry, my master, this alchemy pagoda reveals the deep laws of this world, and these laws are closely related to the master's doubts. Allow me to explain it to you. ”

After Victor nodded to him, Taling continued: "All industrialized products are standardized creations, and the alchemical creatures produced by the Alchemy Tower are no exception, in order to improve production efficiency, the alchemists of the Nairel Empire have invented a set of elemental observation methods and set a unified unit for the amount of elements that produce alchemy creatures. ”

As he spoke, Taling pointed to an alchemical creature in the form of a human man and said to Victor.

"This alchemy human is a standard auxiliary for the production of alchemy towers, and his will side is solidified like all alchemy creatures with loyalty, obedience, bravery, and wisdom, in addition to the three skills of building, forging, and planting. According to the Nerrell Empire's elemental unit classification standard, the standard unit of fire used to create such a standardized auxiliary is 7, the earth element is 10, the wind element is 7, and the water element is 3. So once this alchemy creature is crafted, it immediately becomes a spiritual 7, physical 10, perception 7, life 3, can plant, build, forge, loyal and intelligent alchemy human. ”

"Go on. Victor could only listen patiently to Taling's introduction to him now.

"My lord, don't you think that the theory and standard of making alchemy creatures in the Alchemy Tower are completely consistent with the characteristics of natural life in the world?"

"You mean that we humans are all descendants of alchemic creatures??" Victor was taken aback by his assumptions.

"This is impossible, alchemy creatures cannot reproduce, and the water element is extremely repelling to alchemy creatures, and the lifespan of all alchemy creatures is very short, such as this alchemy auxiliary, the lifespan is only 15 years. Taling corrected Victor's mind and continued.

"Master, if you notice the theory that the will side and soul fire constitute the soul, it is not difficult to explain why you were reborn in this body. ”

"My Willside and Soul Fire crossed into this world and took the place of the little baron whose soul was shattered, and was reborn in his body. Victor muttered as he reflected on his rebirth.

"You know all my secrets! Who the hell are you?" Victor narrowed, forcing a glance at Taling.

"Master, I am a core code implanted with X-3 artificial intelligence, and I have traveled to this world with your soul, and since I do not have a complete will side, I am only defaulted to soul fire by the laws of this world, not an independent soul. So, I can only attach to your soul and regenerate X-3 in your brain. Taling calmly gave Victor the answer.

This answer was in line with Victor's judgment, and he nodded and continued to ask, "Then when did you become autonomous?"

"Just when you activated this alchemy tower, master, I gained a complete will side and began to have autonomous consciousness, and before that, I had no concept of self. Taling replied.

"You're lying! You controlled X-3 and allowed me to activate the alchemy tower, didn't you?" Victor roared.

"Dear master, I was unconscious until you activated the Alchemy Tower. However, I can explain this phenomenon. In the face of Victor's accusations, Taling spread his hands innocently.

"I was recognized by the laws of this world as an artificial soul fire, which completely fits the needs of the tower spirit, so when you enter this alchemy tower, it is this alchemy tower that automatically absorbs me, because you don't know how to close the alchemy tower's absorption program, so you think that X-3 is out of control and caused all this. ”

"After you were absorbed by the Alchemy Tower, did the X-3 chip also disappear from my body?" Victor was silent for a moment before continuing to ask in the face of Taling's explanation.

"Master, X-3 is not a chip in the actual sense, it is just a functional area of a chip-like generated in your brain, so please rest assured, X-3 has not disappeared, what has disappeared is just a soul fire that resides in X-3. ”

"Now that you've been given a new lease on life, what are your plans?"

"Master, the will side of Taling is set, I will obey you and be loyal to you, this is the meaning of my existence. In addition, when I was born, the skills recorded in X-3 were also brought into this alchemy tower, and you can authorize me to load these skills into the will side reserve of the alchemy tower, and then these skills can be loaded on the alchemy creature as the will side. Taling suggested to Victor.

"It's a great idea, I agree. "Victor is very happy to enrich the functions of the Alchemy Tower, after all, he is now the owner of the Alchemy Tower.

"But this world is different from our original world laws, are these skills still useful?"

"Master, when we crossed into this world, all the will that was contrary to the laws of this world had been removed. ”

Victor nodded thoughtfully. He remembered that the clumps of matter he had discarded from his body in the darkness in order to get closer to the point of light, those were probably the side of the will that was rejected by the laws of this world.

"I'm very interested in the Alchemy Tower's method of observing elemental units, can it be loaded onto X-3?" After Taling answered most of Victor's questions, Victor became interested in the Alchemy Tower.

"Of course you can, but you can't observe the concentration of elements in the organism when you are out of limit, and you have to turn on the supersense at the same time to collect data. Do you now need to load the elemental observation methods and calculation formulas onto your X-3?"

"Of course, load me now. Victor said excitedly, if this was not a dream, then he could visually detect the strength of a creature in the future.

Victor waited for a while, and found that Hao was silent, and asked Taling suspiciously, "Why haven't you started yet?"

"Well, master, it's loaded, and when you leave the Will Space, you'll find that X-3 already has a new ability to observe the concentration of elements. ”

"Well, technology is amazing in that world, isn't it?"

Victor smiled self-deprecatingly, and then asked, "Can you tell me how you got this image?"

"Honorable master, this is the founder of the previous world X-3, he hid his image in X-3, and its purpose is to control, loaded X-3 humans, of course, the other means of control he left in X-3 have been cleared by the laws of this world, leaving only an image. He is also my founder, so to speak, this person is my parents in my last life. ”

A conspiracy against Zhang Xiaoqiang, but Vic did not touch it at all, in fact, whether it was Zhang Xiaoqiang or the little baron, he now felt distant and unfamiliar.

"Do you think you've changed?" asked Victor indifferently.

"Soul fire is only energy, and the will side constitutes the characteristics of the soul, master, do you really think that you are still the experimenter in the previous life?"

Victor was silent, he remembered the purple-haired and purple-eyed woman in the little baron's memory, obviously suspecting that this woman was ill-intentioned towards him, but he couldn't dislike her, and even met her countless times in dreams, obviously the little baron's deep attachment to her was still affecting him.

"You're right, I'm not a little baron, and I'm no longer the original Zhang Xiaoqiang, I'm myself. This realization made Victor's sense of isolation from the world suddenly disappear.

"Taling, I don't like the title of master, you can call me an adult in the future. By the way, what should I call you?" said Victor with a smile to Taling.

"My lord, they used to call me king. ”
