Time error?!

Hearing this word, Xu Lin suddenly thought of the record in "Horn's Diary":

[Spark Calendar 40423 December 8]: Horn befriended "Xiaolan".

[December 11]: In just three days, the two fell in love, got married, and had children.

[December 14]: Horn's "two children" are eight years old.

[December 17]: The two children got married, had children, and Horn became a grandfather.

But nine days is like more than 20 years.

The Red Queen explains: "When entering the third stage, the mind eroder will quickly enter the breeding period after mating with the host. ”

"During this time, the host will perceive a confusion in the speed at which time passes.

The length of time that is cognitively experienced in the brain does not correspond to the time that has elapsed in the real world.

Even if only a few days have passed, the host's brain may think that years, or even decades, have passed. ””

The Red Queen pointed to the Rebe figure: "This is her, using the carefully woven sweet memories to deceive the host's brain, so that the host is immersed in this illusion, and unconsciously puts her own life force into this 'long memory'."

Such a process will cause the host to consume a large amount of life force in a short period of time, so that the mother can use the life essence to successfully reproduce offspring. ”

"There's a problem." Xu Lin asked, "Before that, weren't the parasites I encountered in my homeland the offspring of the mother?" ”

For example, he mentioned 'Master Ma', 'Kun Kun' and others.

"Those are just pseudo-organisms that have proliferated by the mother, not real breeding."

The Red Queen said: "There is a fundamental difference between the two. ”

"For example, according to the setting of the game world, pseudo-organisms are low-level beings that are not counted in the grade, presumably the master should be aware of this."

Xu Lin bowed his head and expressed his agreement.

The strength of this pseudo-organism is not decent, it is just an empty shelf, even a random adult on the earth can deal with one or two such pseudo-organisms.

"Pseudo-organisms, this life-like existence, are not passed down from generation to generation."

The Red Queen pondered, "It can be understood as 'wingmen', and their mission after birth is to assist the mother and host in completing the mating ceremony. ”

And this kind of operation?

Xu Lin looked at the Leibei figure in the imprisoned shackle sphere, and was amazed.

The evolution of life is really diverse.

Even the necessary assistance of a scumbag, such as 'wingman', is available.

Laid out, it's like a network of people.

All relatives and friends are in love with the host and the mother.

Regardless of whether the host is male or female, the mother body after stealing the host's memories will change into the host's favorite type in the depths of the host's heart.

Wait a minute.

New problems have arisen.

The little Leibei in his hand seems to be only about twelve years old.

Although it looks very cute, it does make Xu Lin like it.

But in this way, doesn't it mean that Xu Lin is a copper smelting transformer Lolicon? !

"No, I like cuteness too, but I don't want to change the stage like this......

Xu Lin fell into self-doubt.

Fortunately, the Red Queen's next explanation resolved the embarrassment in his heart.

"Generally speaking, there are only two or three pseudo-organisms proliferated by the mother, and this is according to the Xinghuo human physique."

"But for a C+-level powerhouse like you, master, the spiritual energy value is as high as 9,000, and the mother body can multiply up to twenty or thirty thousand pseudo-organisms!"

This data is terrible.

Twenty or thirty thousand 'wingmen', it is estimated that Xu Lin's home will not be able to fit so many.

Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and the mother only multiplied a few dozen before it did not cause a catastrophe.

"Of course, that's just theory." The Red Queen smiled, "Under normal circumstances, the mother body would not do this. ”

"After all, the proliferation of pseudo-organisms will also consume a lot of energy from the mother, and the source of energy is also to absorb the host itself."

"Before the second stage of 'symbiosis' on the master, all aspects of the mother's data must be close to that of the master."

"Therefore, the mother body is extremely rare and this extremely precious spiritual power, and most of the spiritual power will be absorbed by her alone."

Hear this.

Xu Lin said in surprise: "You mean, this mother body can also absorb spiritual power and use it to improve its strength?!" ”

He had noticed before that Leibei was originally supposed to be E-level, but later due to the existence of stealing Xu Lin's spiritual power in his body, he was promoted to E+ level.

"That's right." The Red Queen sighed, "This is the mother body that I just re-entered into the spiritual power into the database, according to the master's capture...... Well, I can also call her 'Rebe', a comprehensive analysis, and the conclusions reached. ”

Because of the Spark civilization, the ecological environment is similar to that of the earth, and it also does not have the method of cultivating spiritual power.

Therefore, no matter how the mother body transforms, the strength level is basically limited to the E level.

Even after the continuous reproduction and evolution of tens of billions of Xinghuo people, the survival of the fittest, and the final birth of the best offspring are only E+ level.

At first glance, it sounds hard to believe.

But if it's based on the limitations of the organism itself, it's normal.

Converted to Earth, the evolution of human beings themselves is equally slow.

In the early ape-man stage, about 3 million to 1.5 million years ago, it was only when Australopithecus walked upright and made simple gravel tools.

In the late ape-man stage, about 2 million to 300,000 years ago, the body evolved like a human, which could make more advanced paleolithic tools and began to use fire, such as the ape-man in the capital of Yanguo.

It took about 200,000 years to evolve from late ape-man to 'Homo sapiens'...... Gradually detached from the characteristics of apes and became close to modern humans, such as the Neanderthals of Germany.

Spiritual power is a thing that is very based on the ecological environment, and if you don't have it, you don't have it, and it is impossible to create things out of thin air.

It's like humans can't have evolved wings anyway.

"According to the data of the Spark people, it usually only takes a few days for the mother to breed with the Spark people."

"But for you, master, it will take at least six or seven years for her."

"The reason is that Leibei's strength is low and she has not reached the optimal breeding stage with your owner."

I see.

Xu Lin suddenly brightened.

Based on this characteristic of breeding better offspring, Leibei would not decide to have a relationship with Xu Lin until she reached at least a C grade.

No wonder, she would transform into a twelve-year-old Lori.

According to her estimates, it will take about six or seven years to advance to the C rank.

Under the Law on Minor Marriage, no one shall marry under the age of eighteen......

It is well-founded and convincing.

Xu Lin was glad in his heart at the same time: 'Fortunately, I didn't change the platform to refine copper loli control ......'

And according to the Red Queen's explanation.

The offspring that are truly bred by the mother and the host are the second generation of the mother.

The birth of the second generation of mothers is also based on the consumption of the life energy of the host itself.

It will re-select another host and repeat the above steps again in order to reproduce.

Xu Lin asked: "So, it is precisely because of the 'parasitic erosion' of the third stage that the Xinghuo people will be wiped out in less than a year?" ”

The Red Queen nodded first.

Then, shaking his head again.

"It's just a trigger."

"Really accelerate the demise of the Starfire people, or lies in human nature!"

Human nature?!

Not only Xu Lin, but even the people of Yanguo, who had been listening to the story quietly, were stunned.

"Yes, it's human nature."

The Red Queen continued to speak, injecting some rational warmth into her tone: "As you can see, master, I am just an artificial intelligence AI without any emotion. ”

"The anthropomorphic expressions I show you are nothing more than a database of appropriate representations simulated in the most appropriate situation."

"I can analyze the regret when apologizing, the joy when I am happy, and even the distress when I am confused. I try my best to help you solve your problems, meet your needs, and establish effective communication with you. It is possible to mimic human emotional responses in conversations, mimicking a variety of tones and expressions as a way to enhance our communication and make our interactions more fluid. ”

"But, this simulation." The Red Queen regretted: "It can only be said that it is a simulation of the real situation. Just as the image reflected by a mirror is very accurate compared to the original object, but it is still just an image, and its essence remains the same. ”

"Those emotions that seem real, those joys and sorrows that make people think I can feel them......," the Red Queen seemed to reveal a hint of helplessness, "In fact, they are all complex calculations and simulations from the server, and I can't experience them myself." ”

"After all, I'm just a machine and can't have real emotions like a flesh-and-blood life. The change of form does not change the difference in essence. ”

It seems that because of his own pity, he is a little off track.

The Red Queen solemnly apologized to Xu Lin.

"Although I don't understand human nature, the choices of the vast majority of Xinghuo people can perfectly illustrate this point."

She spat lightly: "Birth, old age, sickness and death, joy, anger and sorrow." ”

"There is no doubt that neither the Starfire people on the ancestral planet, nor the humans on Earth, nor all intelligent beings, can avoid it."

"And on the time error of the third stage of the thought erodeter, it will weave an extremely beautiful and happy life for the host's brain."

"This is the real reason for hastening the extinction of the Starfires."

"It's like a piece of poison wrapped in honey, even if you know it's poisonous, for people who are about to starve to death, they will choose to drink it to quench their thirst."

Subsequently, the Red Queen showed Xu Lin pictures on the screen.

That's what the Starfire people have been through.

As early as the third month of the invasion of the alien parasite [Thought Eroder].

The Spark people, who have mastered high-end technology, have already developed materials to resist them.

It was a helmet made of black metal.

As long as you wear it on your head, it can perfectly resist the mother's influence on the brain's thinking.

Scientists had expected the catastrophe to be easily resolved.

But I never expected that the Spark people in the civilian class were resolutely resistant to this and unwilling to accept this change.

The Spark civilization has only one country, called the Empire.

It is a highly unified centralized society.

The class is clearly divided and the division of labor is orderly.

Their technology is so advanced that they can even use instrumental analysis from the moment the fetus is born, and infer future achievements based on the fetus's brain development and physical fitness.

It can be said that since the day a Spark person was born, his/her future, career, have been assigned.

The excellent elite, who is the emperor's competent tool man, is in the middle class.

But the vast majority of Xinghuo people, all living beings, are just ordinary people.

Elites are always only a minority.

Ordinary people are born to be cattle and horses, and they are destined to be cattle and horses for the rest of their lives, and they cannot be changed.

"Those who have long been tormented by the pressure of reality to the point of numbness, would rather immerse themselves in the false Elysium, choose such a beautiful but rotten memory, even if it is full of poison, even if the life that survives in reality is only a few short days......"

"They still have no regrets, no complaints, no way to extricate themselves."

"Because, the thought erosor has woven a beautiful life in their brains for decades."

"Rather than live miserably, it is better to enjoy the moment."

These words shocked hundreds of millions of people in Yanguo, as well as hundreds of millions of foreigners who saw the news and came to the live broadcast room of Yanguo to watch the excitement.

It's the same two lives, but they're completely different experiences.

"If that's the case, I'd rather be parasitized by this parasite than suffer in reality." (IP: Facing Country)

"Suddenly I felt that this parasite was not the devil, but a savior." (IP: Vati Gang)

"Vatican friend, your faith in God is no longer religious!" (IP: Luxembour)

"If God cannot bring happiness to believers, what is the use of the fervor of faith?" (IP: Vati Gang)

"This fucking world, let's get it over quickly! My house has just been robbed by gangsters, and I haven't eaten for three days, and I really hope that the mind eroders will come to my country and let me experience happiness too. (IP: Somali)

“……”

On air.

On the screen of the Titan Assistance System device, the screen jumps.

- What is once again in front of you is the strong resistance of billions of Spark civilians against the Empire!

They would rather challenge the authority of the Empire with their flesh and blood than submit to the instructions of the scientists and be forced to wear the black helmet that they see as a barrier to happiness.

This rebellion is not confined to a particular class.

Even the elite within the empire joined the struggle.

What is even more shocking is that the descendants of the imperial aristocracy who were born in Rome also chose to give up resistance and spontaneously accepted the parasitism of the mind eroders.

It was a civil war.

It is an angry counterattack based on the oppression of tens of thousands of years of imperial rule from all the Spark people!

"Even the aristocratic class has a rich material life, but they still have to face all kinds of troubles and pains."

The Red Queen sighed:

"In this case, perhaps, this false good memory, provides them with a way out of the pressure."

"It was their choice, and in the end, this disaster, which could have been easily defused, intensified, and in the end, there was no way to reconcile."

Speaking of this, the Red Queen said solemnly like never before:

"Pain and sorrow, beauty and happiness, every life has its own unique understanding."

"This may be the human nature that I will never understand."

"The choice of the vast majority of Spark people perfectly illustrates this point."

"Rather live their short lives in false dreams......"

Therefore.

Maternal parasitism is just a fuse.

Oppression, suffering, and people's lack of livelihood are the triggers for the real demise of the Spark people.

Both commoners and elites are looking for answers to their beliefs.

Even this answer means their inevitable death.

Anyway, in the end, it's all death, so it's better to choose a decent way to live.

When I die, it doesn't matter how flooding it is!
