The interior of the windmill is cluttered, but it's not a mill, with all sorts of machines piled up in almost every corner, and a lot of bones dotted in between."
Something happened in this stockade in the past, and these people died here while working, because the door to the tower was locked, so the bodies remained, and the people who died outside were all gone."
The secret guest picked up a skull and pinched it gently, and the weathered bones were reduced to pieces in her hands, these people had been dead for a long time, and even the air in the tower no longer smelled.Su Ming, who listened to her analysis, inspected many machines on the side, obviously, the wilderness people did not have the technology to manufacture these devices, they should have inherited the legacy of the previous era, but they may also have inherited something that led to their demise."
Liana, go restore the power."
He assigned tasks to the students, and he also felt that the devices should still start, although most of the machines did not see the effect, but wouldn't they know if they tried it with electricity?
He could recognize electric sewing machines and printing machines, and things like centrifuges and blenders, but the combination of these devices was strange enough.The secret nods and follows the cable to find power, and she steps past a skeleton, her back disappearing into the darkness.After about three minutes, with a low beep, the entire interior of the windmill lit up, and after a few flashes of light, the power supply stabilized."
The machines are of good quality."
Liana, who dusted her hands, returned to her teacher, clearly fond of reliable machinery: "But just a windmill can drive so many devices, and they are also very skilled in controlling power consumption." ”"If I'm not mistaken......"
Death Knell said and walked to the side, opened a dirty terminal, brushed the palm of his hand over the screen covered with a layer of smoke, watched the green cursor flash on it for a boot self-test, and then popped up a shield-like sign, he nodded: "Sure enough, this is a product of the North Central Positronics Group, from the electronic technology giants of the previous era." ”The secret keeping, who had already learned the background of the Dark Tower world from his teacher through strangulation, also went to check the other machines, and found the same sign on almost every piece of equipment that was not seriously corroded.Although many of these signs have been rusted and peeled over time, the mottled traces of their origins are also indicative of their origins."
Northern Central Positronics Group, compared to your Wilson Enterprise, teacher?""
It's a bit like that, except they're castles in the sky."
Su Ming rummaged through the cabinet near the terminal for the data storage medium, and replied to the students: "Once they sold their products to different parallel worlds and even different time and space through one door after another, but unfortunately they ......"
The secret guest leaned against the table with her arms crossed, she pinched a small button in her hand and played with it, and replied: "It's a pity that they don't master the principle of the door themselves, so they died out when the multiple destruction was restarted and the Dogen was all scrapped?"
”Seeing that the students were interested, Deathbell first smiled and nodded, and then shook his head: "Things are similar to what you said, after the portal to different worlds is lost, they are indeed no longer an enterprise that can conduct diversified trade.But it has not died out, the emaciated camel is still bigger than the horse, and today's North Central Positron Group is still one of the huge chaebols in the Middle World. ”The situation in the Middle World is more complex than in the Western-style Inner World, where each city and place is often self-contained, and the Central Positronics Group of the North has made a comeback with the legacy of technology and built a cyberpunk-style city after the apocalypse, ruled by various companies and chaebols.It's just that because of the lack of production materials, this cyber city has a bad taste, and it is mixed with a lot of industrial punk style things.For example, in that city, there are hundreds of thousands of furnaces and chimneys that refine oil and make various chemical products all the time, and the heat and smoke from the chimneys shroud the city in darkness almost forever.Each city was built around a nearby stove or chimney, and settlements were built on the outer walls of the chimneys, and gradually these settlements were connected in the air.The city is wrapped in industry, and industry is the lifeblood there, but the reason why Su Ming can still say that it is a cyberpunk city is because even if the industrial base is about to fall to the era of the internal combustion engine, the North Central Positron Group can still make androids, robots, implants, and operate digital networks.Their bionic technology is more advanced than that of the death knell, because the bionic people of the Positron Group can even achieve 'birth, old age, sickness and death', and Su Ming's own production will only be 'broken'.In that city, the boundaries between real and fake people are infinitely blurred, and all kinds of dramas are staged that seem funny to outsiders but are tragic to the people involved.Just thinking about the relatives and friends around you are actually all puppets controlled by the company's remote control, you know how dark it is.Su Ming probably talked about a few examples, all of which are about how the company borrows androids to deceive living people, what fake wives, fake children, fake friends, fake cigarettes and fake alcohol, etc., are just a few simple examples in life, but the use of human nature has opened the eyes of the secret ke."
Darkness, it's too dark."
Listening to the story told by the teacher, the secret guest's little face wrinkled, she really didn't expect that those android prostitutes or dancers she had seen in Contracia would have such terrifying control if they were used in some dark way.Is it true that capital and big data are the best at grasping people's hearts?"
The android technology is terrible here, once the androids get out of control and can realize self-assembly or replication, the human race will inevitably die out soon, even if they are not killed by them, they will go completely crazy in the suspicion of the whole day."
Su Ming was just telling a story, he found a hard drive and plugged it into the dusty terminal in front of him.The android technology in his hand came from Kang's earliest gifts, and later improved by Howard, but it is not perfect today, and the setting with a hidden energy switch under the skin on the back of the head is enough to make people see that they are dummies.But the death knell will not let the adjutant climb this technological line anymore, and androids are only machines after all, not people.The excessive pursuit of perfection and transcendence in human nature will only reveal its true face in the end, and that is the tendency to self-destruct.When they can't create a perfect version of themselves, they will try to create something else that seems perfect to them, but how can human beings who are already imperfect make perfection?
It is possible to surpass yourself, but it is destined to be a tragedy if you pursue perfection too much.
