Dreamland Guide

At this moment, Situ is standing in front of the wind, leading his "tribes" to wait.

Aoki could feel some subtle changes in the nearby mental force field, but Situ's control was obviously very subtle, and it did not affect anyone other than him and the savage at all.

He saw that the scepter in Situ's hand was emitting a silver light, and its shape was somewhat similar to the black sacred stick he had seen before, but the material was obviously different. Intuitively, that one is wood, and this one is metal or stone.

The savages moved regularly under the command of Situ. From their formation, you can hardly see anything. Just like Petru said, this is a mess of sand. But if you use mental power to sense it carefully, you will find that the savages' position is very subtle, and the mental field twists and forms a strange state of connection between them.

Aoki thought of octopus again, and thought of the Internet. He already knew the tentacles of the Internet. He also caught one in the basement of the Mei’s Experimental Building. He had reached a certain consensus with the ghost, and even risked it to have the possibility of self-evolution. He just wanted to know that the Internet Where is your brain?

Su Huilan suddenly asked him: "Are these savages voluntarily or forced when they are controlled by the scepter? Are they an independent consciousness or part of a communal consciousness?"

Aoki said: "I really don't know this, but from an empirical point of view, their state should be similar to being hypnotized. In a group reality dream, they have their own independent consciousness, but they are subject to unified scheduling and control. Octopus is more appropriate as an analogy, I can't think of a more vivid statement."

Aoki had already come out of Su Huilan's dream, so there was no need to avoid Situ to talk about this topic.

Su Huilan pondered for a while: "This already feels like a high-dimensional creature."

"High-dimensional creatures?"

"Yes, you think, the octopus's neural structure is actually not complicated, but it is decentralized. It has a main brain and eight accessory brains. Each tentacle can be regarded as an accessory brain with an independent nerve center, but No one would treat this tentacle as an independent living body, but who knows if it has consciousness?

If this tentacle is conscious, think further, what if this tentacle is a person?

If you think of a group of hundreds of savages as an octopus, each person is equivalent to a tentacle, but you wouldn't regard these people as being a living body, would you?

The octopus tentacles and the brain are only connected through very few nerve fibers, which can filter out most of the inefficient information, and only receive high-level instructions from the brain, while the low-level information is analyzed by the tentacles themselves and make behavioral decisions. Therefore, the predation of octopus can be done independently by the tentacles instead of the brain.

Many tentacles are connected to form a sense of community with the octopus's brain, which is an advanced life. Similarly, the bodies and brains of many savages are connected to another high-level brain through some kind of mind control method—"

Su Huilan glanced at Situ, "Is that a high-dimensional life, or is it a model of a four-dimensional octopus?"

"Four-dimensional octopus?" The people beside them all felt a little panicked.

Aoki hadn’t imagined what the octopus looked like, the coal boss on his head had already called out: "Kah, cool! How about making a four-dimensional grilled octopus skewers?"

The crow waited for a long time, but didn't see anyone in him, so he closed his mouth boringly.

Mrs. Larry has been listening, and then interjected: "This is really an interesting idea! Four-dimensional octopus-that is to say that higher-dimensional creatures may be composed of three-dimensional creatures like us, and our consciousness It is the "sub-consciousness" of a high-dimensional life scattered in the universe, our bodies are just their "neurons" or tentacles!

If there is such a life in the universe, it would be very interesting. Its brain lives in a four-dimensional or higher dimension, while its invisible tentacles stretch out to the entire universe, forming a self-contained intelligent creature in the three-dimensional world! "

Su Huilan added: "It may also be able to transcend time and space. Its tentacles not only extend to every corner of the space, but also extend to the time axis that we can't reach." She watched Situ and the savage who were mobilizing deliberately raise their tone." For example, this brain may be able to control a savage here, a cat on earth and a Triassic dinosaur at the same time!"

Boris did not understand after listening for a long time, and said impatiently: "You scientists are really interesting. You are fighting now! You understand? During the war, there is still the mind to talk about what a four-dimensional octopus! What high-dimensional octopus. Life! Then tell me, where is the brain you mentioned? Can it help us beat the savages over there and make Lao Tzu sleep well?"

When Boris said so, everyone calmed down and stopped talking. Indeed, it is a bit anachronistic to say this now.

Petru agreed with Boris' words and said: "Boris, do you want to kill with me? We have guns. As long as Mr. Stone drags the old wizard, we can kill him without leaving it! "

Boris said disdainfully: "Go away, who wants to be with a notorious pirate!"

Petru took out a grenade and squeezed it a few times: "You will be willing."

Boris curled his lips, but his eyes showed light.

When everyone was silent, Situ suddenly turned around and said, "Do you know Boltzmann's brain?"

"what?"

Regardless of Aoki, Su Huilan~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and Mrs. Larry, of course they all know Boltzmann's brain, but they don't know what Situ suddenly said.

"The four-dimensional octopus, your metaphor is in place! It is lying on the Milky Way, and its tentacles penetrate the black hole and the fog of time, and reach into your brain... Each of us-is its tentacles!"

When Situ finished speaking, he turned around and stood motionless, leaving only one back, as if he had never moved before. What he said just now was just an illusion.

Aoki raised his head and looked at the sky. There was no Milky Way in the sky, only the red sun that had just risen. The strange thing is that behind the sun, there is also a small sun.

...

With the addition of the third wave of savages, the original balance of confrontation was broken, leading to a moment of chaos, but the people of the three parties quickly calmed down, each occupying its own position and forming a new balance. This balance is more stable than the balance just now, because everyone is worried that if they make any changes, the other two parties will unite.

No one was talking anymore, and even the wild people stopped screaming. The atmosphere in the mountains and forests became very strange, the air was dull and solemn, and the wind seemed to be frightened by this atmosphere, and did not dare to come over, only shivering on the far treetops.

The crow scratched the feathers on his neck with his paw, and exclaimed dissatisfiedly: "I didn't eat breakfast, so I went out to fight!"

Its sound was not loud, but at this moment, it seemed to be amplified by a loudspeaker more than ten times. When it heard the buzzing in people's ears, even it was taken aback: "Wow! What's the matter?! "

The voice of this sentence is louder than before, like a thunder in the mountains and forests.

With a bang, the original calm and balance have been broken.

The three great wizards did not know who raised the scepter in his hand first, and the stable mental field in the valley suddenly became chaotic.
