Li Yao held his breath.
He didn't expect Professor Mo Xuan to be so open and honest.
He would tell any secrets without him asking.
Could it be that the teacher is really upright, has a clear conscience, and has done nothing?
Professor Mo Xuan said: "The research we conduct in the virtual spirit world is mainly to simulate the birth of life in the material world with a degree of simulation close to 100%, that is, first 'create' a virtual primitive planet, and then Inject various conditions bit by bit, expecting it to slowly produce virtual archaea, trilobites, dinosaurs, apes, until the final 'virtual intelligent life'.
“Alas, we were too naive and impatient at the time.
We completely underestimated the difficulty of creating life and overestimated the computing power we could output.
"In other words, no matter how much computing power is output, it is useless.
There is no positive correlation between computing power and the soul."
Li Yao said: "I don't understand, please explain."
Professor Mo Xuan said: "For example, if you have a metal puppet that weighs one ton and is a hundred times stronger than a human being, but you want to turn it into a real person, what would you do?
Keep increasing it Can the weight and output power change from one ton to one hundred tons, and from one hundred times to ten thousand times, can it generate intelligence and will and become real life?
" Li Yao was thoughtful and slowly shook his head.
"Of course, no one would be stupid enough to do this, because weight and strength have nothing to do with 'consciousness', but the same is true for 'computing power'.
Crazy superposition of computing power is like adding a metal The puppet changes from one ton to one hundred tons.
It is impossible for any life to be born, it will only cause collapse!
“It’s a pity that at that time, we all didn’t understand, or were unwilling to believe this truth.
"Just when there were signs of the birth of primitive life in the Void World, we assembled twelve level crystal brains and madly injected the computing power into the Void World, and finally collapsed.
"I don't want to talk more about that collapse.
Anyway, you must have seen it in the news reports.
Although there were a lot of embellished elements, the result was not wrong.
Su Chang died tragically in the virtual world.
The souls of Lu Qingchen and I were both I was hit hard, and as a result, I stopped the 'Void Spirit Realm Project', while Lu Qingchen simply betrayed the Federation and defected to the Empire.
"However, let me tell you a secret.
The reason why I stopped the 'Void Spirit Realm Project' was not because I gave up, but because I was involved in the turbulence of infinite computing power, and in the whirlpool and storm of the Void Spirit Realm.
When I was torn to pieces, I suddenly figured it out, completely figured it out!
"It's so stupid.
I used to be so stupid, stupid, and dull!
"In just a few hundred years, it is neither possible nor necessary to create a virtual life out of thin air, because we clearly already have a virtual life, one that is extremely perfect and will never be an enemy of humans.
The virtual life is ourselves!”
Professor Mo Xuan became more and more excited as he talked, and finally pointed at Li Yao and Ling Xiaole again!
Li Yao and Ling Xiaole were confused for a while.
"etc" Ling Xiaole took a deep breath, bit her finger and said, "Professor, can we be considered 'virtual lives'?"
"Why not?"
Professor Mo Xuan opened his arms as if to embrace the whole world, "Look at our current living conditions.
How is it different from the 'virtual life' you imagined?"
"But we have bodies!"
Ling Xiaole said anxiously, "This is a virtual world, our bodies are in the real world!"
"Note, this is the spiritual world, not the virtual world."
Professor Mo Xuan's tone became unusually stern.
After a moment, he lowered his tone and said, "Yes, you have a body, but ghost cultivators don't.
Ghost cultivators are just a very complex and mysterious spiritual magnetic fluctuation.
A piece of A small chip is enough to accommodate it, so can you agree that the ghost cultivator without a body is a kind of 'virtual life'?"
Li Yao and Ling Xiaole looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
Ling Xiaole tilted his head and thought for a long time before humming: "Okay, okay, if the professor insists on saying so, ghost cultivation can indeed be regarded as a kind of 'virtual cultivation'."

Life', is... the Eldar."
"It's more than that."
Professor Mo Xuan looked at the two of them deeply and said deeply, "Whether from the perspective of law or social order and good customs, ghost cultivators are members of human beings.
Can you agree with this?"
"certainly!"
Li Yao and Ling Xiaole did not hesitate.
This is certain.
Since the promulgation of the Federal Human-Ghost Equal Rights Act more than two hundred years ago, ghost cultivators, or spirit tribes, have had the same legal status as ordinary humans.
More than two hundred years are enough for most ghost cultivators to integrate into normal society.
"Also, monsters, no matter how grotesque their bodies are, with wings, tails, claws and horns, as long as they have the soul of a human and consider themselves a member of human civilization, then they are still human."
Professor Mo Xuan stared at Ling Xiaole, "Do you agree?"
"I agree!"
Ling Xiaole nodded fiercely.
She was a half-demon herself, so how could she disagree?
Professor Mo Xuan smiled and stretched out three thick and long fingers: "So, you can all agree that whether it is a spiritual race without a body, a demon race with a weird body, or a body that looks relatively 'normal', but The human race may not be able to wield a sword or punch with a punch that weighs several kilograms.
No matter how different their bodies are, it doesn’t even matter whether they have bodies or not, but they are all an integral part of human civilization?”
Li Yao pondered, thinking hard about the trap in this sentence, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't refute it, so he nodded slowly: "Yes."
"In other words, you all agree that what makes a person human is not the body, but the soul?"
Professor Mo Xuan said, "As long as the soul is a human being, how can the body be changed?
Even without it?
For example, Representative Lin, if one day you unfortunately die in the battle to defend human civilization and lose your body, but you can use the power of a 'ghost cultivator' Reborn, are you still a human?"
Li Yao blinked: "Of course!"
"So, the physical body is not important.
The true face of our 'human' life form is the 'spirit'.
We are a special kind of virtual life."
Professor Mo Xuan concluded, "The so-called flesh and blood body is just a 'shell', a shell that helps us come to the material world to carry out activities, something similar to crystal armor, but this layer of 'flesh and blood' Crystal armor is the equipment we are born with, just like the eggshells of oviparous animals!
"Because it's just a shell, it doesn't matter if it has it or not.
It doesn't matter what it looks like.
It doesn't matter if it has horns.
It doesn't matter if it can blast fifty kilograms of force or five thousand kilograms of force.
It's just that the 'model' is different.
There is no essential difference.
Right?
Right!"
Li Yao and Ling Xiaole slowly opened their mouths.
Although Professor Mo Xuan's statement was absurd, after careful consideration, they felt that it was impeccable!
If we admit that ghost cultivators are a member of human beings, and that monsters are also a member of human beings, then it doesn’t matter what the human “body” looks like, what matters is the soul!
Therefore, the flesh and blood body is just a shell, and human beings are originally virtual lives, or in other words, "spiritual life"!
"Do you understand my initial stupidity?"
Professor Mo Xuan seemed to be smiling but not crying, and murmured, "We humans are originally a kind of virtual life, but I turned a blind eye to this fact.
Instead, I sacrificed the near and far to create a brand new virtual life, which also led to An irreversible accident, really stupid.
"Wrong, wrong, the research direction in the past was completely wrong.
With the explosive development of crystal brain and spiritual network technology, the focus we should focus on is not to create a new virtual life, but how to let us humans evolve in the process of evolution.
There will be a new leap on the road, a new form, a completely virtual life form!”
Li Yao suddenly raised his hand.

Professor Mo Xuan: “Representative Lin, what’s the problem?”
Li Yao: "Professor Mo Xuan, I wonder if you can transform into a huge rainbow lollipop and introduce it to us while licking the lollipop, as long as the law allows it?"
Professor Mo Xuan: "Why do you do this?"
Li Yao: "Because I feel that your current appearance is really similar to the kind of ambitious villains that often appear in novels, games and dazzling phantoms.
It makes me very nervous, so I am wondering if you can please Licking the lollipop, the atmosphere will be more relaxed."
Ling Xiaole: "...Well, professor, I agree with Special Envoy Lin's proposal.
Your theory is really a bit confusing and creepy."
Professor Mo Xuan: "Okay!"
He lightly snapped his fingers, then took a dig in his arms, and actually took out a large, round spiral rainbow lollipop, tore open the wrapping paper, licked it carefully, and said slowly: "If If you are still nervous, if I told you, I would have dismissed these theories long ago It was written into a monograph and submitted to high-level officials of the federal government and major academic institutions.
At this moment, every corner of the entire 'Worry-Free World', including this conversation we are having, is being closely monitored by the Secret Sword Bureau.
Will this make you feel better?
"I can even ask the Secret Sword Users who are monitoring this place to join in.
Maybe Miss Ling can recognize a few colleagues, do you need it?"
A middle-aged man with deep eyes, a resolute face, a clumsy expression, and extremely broad shoulders was licking a large rainbow lollipop very seriously.
This scene was really... indescribably weird.
However, it did wash away the gloomy and crazy atmosphere just now.
Li Yao and Ling Xiaole blinked at the same time.
Thinking about it, Li Yao, as the "Special Envoy of the Speaker of the Star Sea Republic", came to visit such a high-profile secret project as "Project Fire", and was not being closely watched by the Secret Sword Bureau.
It's unreasonable.
"I know what you're thinking, but it's not what you think."
Professor Mo Xuan said calmly, "Representative Lin, under normal circumstances, if calculated as twenty-four hours a day, how much time would you spend in the computer and network world?"
Li Yao thought for a while: "If you include the training in the Taixu Illusion Realm, it will take about ten hours.
After all, at my level, the computing power and soul are very powerful.
In the Taixu Illusion Realm, I can extend the time.
Hours should be used in three to four hours, and a lot of deductions and cultivation work can be done in the virtual world.”
Professor Mo Xuan nodded: "Miss Ling, what about you?"
Ling Xiaole thought for a while and said, "Not necessarily.
It might be less when I'm on a mission, but when I'm on vacation, I basically spend the whole day online.
To sum it up, it's about ten hours."
"Great, you're all getting close to the federal average time spent online per capita."
Professor Mo Xuan smiled and said, "According to the latest statistics, if the time on different planets and starships is converted into twenty-four hours a day, Federation people, regardless of gender, old or young, spend nine hours a day on the spiritual network.
Twenty-two minutes, if you look at the active age group between eight and one hundred and twenty years old, the average time spent online is twelve hours and thirty-three minutes, just over half.
“Although the time is ‘only’ half way, almost all important things for modern people, including work, entertainment, making friends, ordering taxis, ordering takeaways, expressing opinions, self-improvement... all of these are done online.
“It can be said that the focus of modern human life has long been completely and irreversibly shifted to the Internet!
"I would like to ask you two, if half of your time and 90% of the content in your life, whether it is working, practicing, eating, making friends or even having sex, must and are willing to do it through the Internet, are you a carbon-based life or a human being?
What about virtual life?
Do your souls live in the Internet or in the material world?
Isn't that flesh and blood body in the so-called 'reality' used to ensure that you can access the Internet normally and allow you to reproduce the next generation so that they can continue too?
Is it just a 'shell' for normal Internet access?
"Is it really difficult to admit that human beings are a virtual life and that the Internet is our future, our essence, everything we are?"
Professor Mo Xuan bit down on the rainbow lollipop and asked firmly in a loud voice—— The fifth update is completed, ho ho ho ho!
Let’s play a little game together.
Calculate according to your own method how much time you spend online every day, and how many key points in your life are completed through the Internet!
If you pass 50%, congratulations, you are making rapid progress towards the evolution of virtual life forms!
Congratulations, congratulations!
