Chapter 372 372. Civilization

"You mean civilized?"

Qiao Mu was curious and didn't know what this camera was going to do.

In fact, normally, they don’t need to inquire so much to complete the mission. To complete the mission of the God of Choice game in a foreign land, one must learn to fish.

Just know what you know. If you accidentally know something you shouldn't know, something will go wrong.

But Qiao Mu himself needs to improve the completion of the scene of "The Ghost", and Qianyun is not afraid of death at all, so the two of them break the casserole here and ask the end.

"I have a question."

Qianyun spoke first before the camera could answer Qiao Mu's question.

"This world now should be a destroyed academic city, right? Are you the mechanical life forms created by the humans in the academic city?"

"First of all, I want to correct one thing, which is that we were not created."

The red light of the camera flashed slightly.

"But you were indeed created by humans, from the earliest artificial intelligence to the later autonomous mechanical life."

Qianyun is reluctant to give up.

"Asking the question, if we study the evolutionary history of exotic creatures, we can learn that the human species evolved iteratively from apes. Can we think that humans are also life forms created by other apes?"

The camera asked in a flat tone.

"I don't know what you are talking about."

Qianyun felt that this was beyond her knowledge. On the other hand, she felt that the camera was a bit unreasonable.

"Just as human beings are a species that was born through a series of coincidences and inevitabilities over a long period of time, we are also a species that was born by chance over time and just happened to appear in human machinery."

The camera explained calmly.

"So, you are indeed a mechanical life form."

Qiao Mu had no intention of arguing with the camera, she just wanted to know the secret behind it.

"As far as your understanding is concerned, there is no problem with this expression."

The red light of the camera flashed slightly.

"You destroyed the humans in the academy, and now you create them as pets in the zoo?"

Qiao Mu asked.

"I said, my goal is to observe civilization."

The camera paused, and the red light in the lens continued to flash.

"For us, the ornamental value is different from that in human cognition. Human beings do not have corresponding ornamental value, but I am an observer and I am interested in civilization, so I observe civilization here."

"You mean trapping humans here and throwing a plane for them to worship?"

Qiao Mu glanced at the steel door behind him that was propped open a crack.

"According to historical archaeological findings, human civilization began with primitive tribes. However, after I tried to create primitive tribes, I found that they failed to evolve the civilization we know well."

The red light of the camera flashes on and off along with the words it speaks.

"After trying it many times, I started trying to add variables."

"Wait, you mean you have created civilizations many times?"

Qianyun raised his eyebrows.

The mechanical life represented by this camera mastered the technology to create humans, and then created a group of primitive humans within this wall, trying to let them reproduce the process of human development, and this process seems to have gone through many times.

As for how it restarts each time, it's hard not to imagine.

"Yes."

The sound of the camera paused for a moment, and then sounded again accompanied by a flash of light.

"You may want to accuse me of my treatment of those failed subjects, but what I want to say is that in the history of mankind that I have read, human scientists often harmlessly dispose of experimental animals as an observation However, my approach is very clean.”

"In addition, human morality and laws are not suitable for us. The reason why I explain to you in this form and try to gain an understanding based on your moral level is out of respect for you two."

"Because obviously, you are not my creation."

Upon hearing its words, Qianyun immediately spoke.

"You mean, although they are all humans, the people in this town were created by you, so they will be treated as experimental materials, but we were not created by you, so you will regard us as real humans?"

"You are very smart."

The camera replied.

"But we are all similar. We are all human beings who can think independently."

Qianyun felt strange.

“First, maybe we need to define independent thinking.”

The camera seemed to think for a while before continuing to make sounds.

"Although I can list more than twenty ways to argue this issue, this is not the focus of our conversation. I speculate that your time here is running out, so let us get to the core topic."

"Those civilizations in the past did not have any variables involved, and there was no evolution for tens of thousands of years. After repeating it several times, I began to study the changes brought about by adding variables."

"In the beginning, I used the method of directly implanting knowledge to enlighten them as the descendant of a foreign civilization. However, the civilization later became a paradise for fanatic believers and did not form rationality according to history."

"Later, I buried the knowledge and guided them to discover it. But after obtaining the knowledge, although civilization progressed, it stagnated again unless I provided more knowledge."

"Later, I led the tribe by instilling knowledge into the brains of certain individuals. Unfortunately, when that short-lived species died, the civilization fell into chaos and eventually became extinct."

The camera calmly explains his experimental experience and the results of controlling variables.

Obviously, it wanted to study how human civilization developed from primitive people to civilized society, but it failed.

"So what answer did you get in the end?"

Qiao Mu had a vague feeling that the camera had already obtained the answer in this experiment.

"curiosity."

The camera didn't hide anything, and a red light flashed in its lens.

“What drives human progress is curiosity.”

"In an accidental intrusion of a machine dragon, I discovered that a driving force was generated within civilization. Human beings seemed to have emotional fluctuations towards the meteors passing through the sky. From this, civilization began to develop, although later, as time went by, As time went by, after everyone who had witnessed the meteor died, the development of civilization stagnated again, but I confirm that this inner driving force is the key factor guiding the development of civilization. "

"So, I added variables to this civilization and placed an invisible thing in the sky to trigger humans to look up to the sky and explore the truth. Judging from the current development, it is very smooth."

"Do you know why birds fly?"

"Why?"

Qiao Mu shook his head. He didn't understand this kind of philosophical question.

"Because if they can't fly, they will fall after breaking out of their shells."

The camera's voice is calm.
