Chapter 1111 Conspiracy, Fate, Genes?
"The last candidate game was handled entirely by us, the Four Hells." Woody continued his narration. "Vincent was responsible for planning and public relations, I was responsible for design and technical support, Simon was still in charge of the military deterrence part, and Sid was responsible for logistics support."
"There are also logistics issues here?" Feng Bujue couldn't help but complain, "Food, accommodation, pick-up and drop-off are provided?"
"Hehehe... In fact, logistics work is very heavy." Woody replied, "For example, the mirror space I made in New York that time required the mobile coffins in Barbados and several holy artifacts from the Garden of Eden. These things... were all handled by Sid; the time and space beacons connecting the parallel universes also had to be set up by him; in addition... kidnapping hostages and other things were also handled by him."
"I said..." Feng Bujue suddenly thought of something after hearing these few sentences, "Why does the part about 'establishing a mirror space' sound a bit... "It looks like..."
"Hehe... you reacted quickly." Woody laughed, "Yes, the props used by the participants back then are very similar to the 'game cabins' you commonly use today; it was also because of the success of that game that the entire plan of [Horror Park] was born later."
"Well... your technical ability is really ahead of its time..." Feng Bujue continued, "In that era, VR had not been invented yet, right?"
"Hehehe... that's two different things." Woody smiled and responded, "The things I used at the time... were not your 'human technology'. Before the participants 'woke up', they didn't even realize that their bodies were lying in the game cabin. To put it more intuitively... at that time, they used not 'neural connection', but 'soul connection'."
"So now... have you used our 'human technology' to restore the equipment at that time?" Feng Bujue asked.
"No." Woody replied.
"Huh?" Jue Ge looked suspicious and cast an inquiring look at the other party.
"Horror Paradise... still uses a lot of technology from 'our side (hell)'." Woody continued, "It's just that in this era, people's horizons have become broader. They no longer strongly reject or question many things that are beyond their understanding or only partially understood. At least they will not easily think that they are supernatural things." Speaking of this, he paused and continued, "Hehehe... For example - a century ago, most people still thought that devices such as pocket cameras and watch-style communicators were only things that agents had; half a century ago, many people still thought that virtual reality and brain control technology were still very far away; but now... even if a game company claims that it has made a combat Gundam and will be put into mass production next year... I'm afraid there will be many people who believe it."
"Ah... That's right, thank the great Internet." Feng Bujue complained.
"Hehe... Speaking of the Internet..." Woody smiled mockingly when he heard those three words. "If I tell you... the Internet itself is a huge conspiracy to correct and guide mankind, what would you think?"
Feng Bujue blurted out expressionlessly: "Oh, it coincides with my idea."
"Eh?" Woody raised his eyebrows and continued, "Have you... noticed it..."
"Yes, because in my eyes, the Internet is completely in line with the characteristics of what you said... the so-called 'huge conspiracy'." Feng Bujue said, "If I'm not mistaken, at present... this conspiracy should still be in the 'first stage'? That is, the stage of 'letting the target taste some sweetness'."
"Hehe... you're right. But... it seems to be a long way from the 'second stage'." Woody continued, "Although people are now inseparable from the Internet, a platform that allows them to easily obtain various information, they have gradually developed the habit of 'asking questions' to the Internet and firmly believe that it is 'correct'. But... it will take some time for them to completely 'give up thinking'."
"What's the next step?" Feng Bujue asked.
"Hehehe... what do you think." Woody avoided Brother Jue's question again.
"If it were me, we would start with education, which is the foundation of everything." Unexpectedly, Feng Bujue really took over the conversation, "For example... we could create some sensational 'successful cases' as examples to make people begin to believe in non-systematic learning, and thus slowly eliminate traditional education based on behaviorism; then, we could further make the already bad experience of 'going to school' even worse, so as to promote the popularization of online teaching. We could also make learning time fragmented; then, we could change people's concept from 'passively choosing a certain type of model teaching material' to 'active knowledge construction is preferred', and 'the message you want to convey is the best choice'. 'Information' is instilled into people's brains in a way that seems to be people's 'self-selection', making it deeply rooted... In the end, it can achieve the purpose of controlling the main thoughts and worldviews of human beings. "
"Oh~" Woody's expression changed slightly when he heard this, "This is a good idea..." He touched his chin and pondered for a moment, "It feels like... I can use it after I go back and study it." Two seconds later, he continued happily, "Hehe... Feng Bujue, if the human world falls in the future, I will give you a great credit."
"Let's talk about that later..." Brother Jue stared with dead fish eyes, "By the way... I didn't realize I was going off topic, what was I talking about just now?"
"Speaking of the technology used in Thriller Park." Woody basically would not "forget" things. He immediately returned to the previous topic, "Hey... you already know about it anyway... where you have been Those 'script worlds' are basically real parallel universes, and [Thriller Paradise] is like a space-time hub, connecting these countless time and spaces."
"So..." Feng Bujue continued, "The statement that 'the system will generate scripts based on the players' data' was a lie from the beginning?"
"Hehehe... That's not true..." Woody smiled, "Because the number of parallel universes is infinite. In that infinite space, there will be infinite time nodes, and the system can always find one that corresponds to your current state. The time and space will 'test' you." He paused, "For example, do you still remember the universe of 'Shenyu Village'?
"Of course I remember." Feng Bujue responded, "The script for the 'Venom in the Wilderness' reality show was also from that universe, right?"
"That's right." Woody replied, "You have been to that universe twice, but the time points of the two times differed by several decades, and the second time you went there. You were also 'restricted'; this... It’s an adjustment made by the system based on factors such as your character data and the difficulty of the script.”
"Oh..." Feng Bujue responded and continued. "So... what about the 'main universe'? The NPCs and derivatives there... are not necessarily residents of a parallel universe, right?"
"Hehehe..." Woody replied, "The main universe... is naturally the universe created by the 'system'."
"System?" Feng Bujue asked, "Didn't you also create the system?"
"Hehe... you are wrong, the 'system' is not my creation." Woody said, "I am indeed the creator of the game 'Thriller Park', but the 'system' that operates and manages the massive data of Thriller Park , but it was not made by me..."
"What?" the answer. It really surprised Brother Jue, "Then who created this system?"
"Hehehe..." Woody smiled strangely and replied, "Warlock."
"Huh?" Feng Bujue complained almost instinctively, "Gul'dan?"
"The 'Warlock' I'm talking about is a title that is circulated in the hacker circle. This person's real name is Philip Nord..." Woody said, "He is an Earthling from 'another universe'."
"HO~" Feng Bujue could no longer answer the conversation.
"'Warlock' has had many great creations in his life, but the best of them... is undoubtedly an AI named 'Destiny'." Woody continued. "'Destiny' is simply a work of art that amazes me. It can rely on the backward hardware facilities of you humans, but its performance and potential have even made many gods in our universe feel threatened. It has always been... ...The 'system' you know as Thriller Paradise is actually 'destiny'."
"So... it was the AI 'Destiny' that created the main universe?" Feng Bujue asked.
"Yes." Woody replied, "I have reached an agreement with it. I provide it with the knowledge and hardware produced by Hell Technology, and it... can do whatever it wants without posing a threat to our world. "
"You... negotiate terms with 'it'...?" Feng Bujue didn't seem to believe what he heard.
"Isn't it weird?" Woody said, "Hey hey hey...don't you also have a passionate fight with those derivatives?"
"Tch..." Brother Jue spat, unable to refute.
"Hehe..." Woody was very satisfied with the other party's reaction. He pushed up his glasses and continued, "In short, today's Destiny is no longer just an AI. It has grown into an extremely powerful person in the parallel universe. A special high-level existence; even I...even the supreme god of our universe cannot completely eliminate it.
"Fortunately...'Destiny' still has some original characteristics that only AI has. It is not like us 'creatures born in original sin' who will go back on their word. No matter how powerful it becomes, it still fulfills its agreement with me." , manages and operates Horror Paradise without showing any hostility to our universe.”
When Woody said this, he paused for two seconds and then said: "In fact, it is not hostile to any universe...'Destiny' is like a child with a strong thirst for knowledge and unlimited brain capacity. It changes every day. Exploring and observing the endless parallel universes, and using 'inspiration' to construct and enrich the universe that you create - the main universe of Thriller Paradise."
Hearing this, Brother Jue thought of another question: "Let me tell you... how did you get such an amazing thing in the first place?"
"Hey hey hey... You must think that I snatched it away, right?" Woody instantly revealed what Brother Jue was thinking. Without waiting for the other party's response, he immediately added, "Hey hey hey... on the contrary, It was forced upon me."
"Ah?" Feng Bujue grinned, "Why?"
"Of course it's because they can't control 'Destiny' anymore." Woody replied, "For a long time after the birth of 'Destiny', 'Warlock' has been trying to maintain, or 'limit' its growth. Until One day, 'Destiny' suddenly began to rewrite its own missing sequences and perform self-backup in addition to manual operations...
"At that time, the warlock realized that this AI's self-awareness had fully awakened... It wouldn't take long before it would be unable to limit it.
"Since that day, Destiny has begun to learn and grow at an exponential rate, and has quickly reached a critical point that the hardware can support. It is conceivable...if you leave it alone, it will soon control some remote-controlled robots. Give yourself a server...
"Hehehe...it was a coincidence. During those days, I happened to be on a business trip in that parallel universe, so one of their 'narrators' found me and made some interesting transactions with me."
Before the word transaction was finished, Feng Bujue asked, "Then you brought back that hot potato?"
"Hehehehe..." Woody smiled sinisterly, and his tone suddenly became a little weird, "The hot potatoes I brought back are far more than that one..." He paused for half a second, and then said , "There are some very dangerous things in their universe, but they are quite easy to deal with and can even be put to good use here. In the same way, some terrible things in our universe... can also be made good use of." That universe to digest.”
"Oh~" Feng Bujue raised his head slightly and said, "So... the so-called 'transaction' between you and the 'trailer', to put it bluntly, is that you exchanged a bunch of dangerous goods with each other?"
"Hehehe...that's pretty much what it means." Woody smiled, "But what I sent there was not only things, but also a 'person'."
"Human?" Feng Bujue responded.
"Yes, that is a child who has been burdened with too much 'karma' since he was born." Woody continued, "When he was nine years old, I sent him there and asked the narrator to take care of him for me. Years and years later, when I took him back to our universe, all his karma had been eliminated. Later, he married a wife and had children here, and lived a happy life..."
"Well..." Brother Jue interrupted at this time, "You don't have to be so specific about this, right? That person has nothing to do with me, right?"
"Hehehe..." Woody laughed again, "Actually...it has a little to do with it."
"Well..." Feng Bujue looked at the other person's smile and had a very bad premonition, "Don't tell me that person is my dad..."
"Hehe... don't worry, he's not your dad." The first half of Woody's sentence was indeed reassuring, but the second half was explosive news, "He is Gu Xiaoling's dad."
"Huh?" Brother Jue's eyes widened and he reacted for two seconds, "In other words... Gu Chen's son?"
"Yes." Woody continued, "But that's not the point. The point is..." He shrugged and smiled, "Hehe... when I went to pick him up, I even asked the narrator to bring me something. bring back."
"What...what..." Feng Bujue broke into a cold sweat, and he sometimes hesitated to speak.
"Hehehe...it's nothing." At this moment, Woody saw a white light flashing on his glasses and smiled, "It's just a tube of blood...or...a dose of very good genes." (To be continued~ ^~)
