Chapter 355 Eternal Death

"Just one line of address?"

Xiaodi also came over to take a look. The message that Netero sent to Jingyang had no pictures, no contact person, no contact information, only a simple address: Freyer Mountain.

"The old man likes to play, I understand." Jing Yang snorted twice, "This is just throwing a ball, let's see if we can find what we are looking for according to the map."

"What are you looking for?" Xiaodi asked puzzledly.

  Jing Yang remembered that he hadn't mentioned it to Xiao Di yet, so he told her about the bet that Netero would lose to him. Since it was something that could be compared with the mysterious master of Meteor Street who injured Biscuit, it was probably not a simple existence. Maybe it was another hidden master of Nen?

Xiao Di said directly: "Yi Yi, can you help me check 'Frel Mountain'?"

The correct way to use Hacker Hunter! Jing Yang gave Xiao Di a thumbs up.

The puppet controlled by Ikshanpei made a move hesitantly, and Xiaomai followed suit without thinking, "click."

"..." Ike Shangpei shook her head, seemingly immersed in the game, but an arc flashed in the puppet's head. She said without turning her head, "The information about Freier Mountain has been sent to your mailbox."

Data was flowing rapidly in the puppet's eyes, and the CPU was about to smoke. It was calculating the moves with a higher chance of winning, but Xiaomai easily resolved them one after another, and soon it was completely defeated.

"That's impossible. Even if it's a general-purpose auxiliary AI, the amount of calculations is far beyond the limits of the human brain. How is it possible to lose... so quickly?" Even though Ik Shangpei's voice was a robot-like electronic voice, one could tell that she was full of confusion.

Jing Yang reminded: "Have you been out of your body for too long? Look at how she plays chess."

"Just play chess, who cares?"

Ik Shangpei sneered and looked up. Hmm? Bodhisattva? The blind girl, who was playing chess, lowered her eyebrows like a Bodhisattva, and her head seemed to be filled with the light of wisdom... No, it was really glowing, it was thoughts!

"Even if she focused on a certain skill and gained Nen naturally, it is impossible for her to surpass my auxiliary AI by so much... This little girl must have made a vow to gamble her life to have such extraordinary chess skills..."

Ikchampé guessed a lot in an instant.

Jing Yang smiled and said, "Don't doubt it, she is 100% of the strengthening type. Once I teach her some basics of Nen ability, no one knows to what extent her chess skills can be strengthened. What do you think, Yike Shangpei, do you think you can create a military chess AI that can beat her?"

"No matter how much the human brain is strengthened, it is still a human brain and will be constrained by rationality." Ik Shangpei's puppet has no expression and the electronic voice has no emotion. "As long as AI can keep up with the computing power, it will not be affected by any other factors. It can deduce endless chess moves in 1 second. It is not a question of whether you can beat her on the chessboard, but a question of when."

Pinky asked curiously, "Is there a limit to how much the strengthening system can do to the brain?"

Ik Shang admired: "There may be no limit to strengthening, but human rationality and human 'self-awareness' do have limits. When the brain is strengthened beyond a limit, the mind is like a train that has accelerated madly and finally derailed. There is only - boom! As for what is behind the explosion, whether it is the original train or the original person, no one can tell, because there are too few such examples."

"Although there are few examples, have you seen them?" Jing Yang asked curiously.

"No."

"Never seen it?" Xiaodi was also curious.

"Although I haven't seen it," Ik Shangpei replied slowly in his emotionless electronic voice, "but I once argued with someone about this topic for a while."

"Is that person a reinforcement type?" Xiaodi asked.

"No." "Then are you a reinforcement department?" Jing Yang asked.

"No."

"None of you are in the reinforcement department, what are you arguing about..." Xiao Zi complained in a low voice.

Jing Yang asked suspiciously, "Could it be that the person who is arguing with you about this topic just happens to have the word 'gold' in his name?"

Ik Shangpei was silent, and it was unclear whether she didn't want to admit it or was unwilling to reveal Jin's information without Jin's presence. But looking at her like this, it was almost certain that she had acquiesced.

"So, the result of your argument is that you simply gave up your mortal body and ascended to cyberspace?" Jing Yang tried to ask, "Did you use AI to simulate a virtual self, or copy a copy of your memory and consciousness and transmit it to the Internet? Or even worse, you even completely abandoned your original physical body? Don't look at me like that, you hooked up with my girlfriend to learn your cyberspace ascension and become a digital person, I have to ask what's going on, right?"

Yike Shangpei stared at Jing Yang for a while, and finally said: "The door to the online world is only open to the residents of the online world. Even if I tell you how to open the door now, what's the point?"

"Of course it does make sense." Xiao Zi said, not quite understanding but thinking she did, "If you can live in that cyber world without even a body, wouldn't that be immortality? Wouldn't that be super awesome?"

"eternal life?"

Ike Shangpei didn't know what he was thinking about. The mechanical sound was a little choppy. "How do you define life and death in this way? In my opinion, in the real world, these people are trapped in flesh and blood. Their thinking activities are affected by hormones. A little defect in the brain, or even a little bit of chemical substances, can completely change their self-cognition in an instant... Such 'people' can only be 'fake people' at best. They have never been truly alive. They are not much different from NPCs in games."

She paused and said calmly, "But the reverse is also true. In the eyes of people in the real world, digital people like me are already dead when they become digital people. Living in the cyber world is not called living, let alone eternal life. It's better to say eternal death."

Jing Yang smiled and said, "Did the person who argued with you say this?"

Ikshamphe did not answer and seemed to refuse to answer any questions related to Jin.

"It seems like he's feeling very resentful..."

Jing Yang thought, "Could this Yike Shangpei be Xiaojie's mother?"

"Um, please..."

Xiaomai finally couldn't help but speak up, and asked stammeringly, "Does anyone else want to play chess?"

……

Of course Xiaomai could play chess at her own will, but Jingyang was not going to play along. He made a few phone calls and helped Xiaomai find a place to live, and her family was on their way to move in.

It seems that Ikshanpei's puppet is staying with Xiaomai for the time being - if Xiaomai's situation was not special and she couldn't use mobile phones, computers and other network devices at all, Ikshanpei would not have to control the puppet himself and could just play electronic military etiquette with Xiaomai. But Xiaomai is blind and can only play chess face to face.

"Let's talk about teaching her the power of mind skills after I come back. I have to go out for a while." Jing Yang said to Yike Shangpei before leaving, "Of course, if you are willing, you can do it for me, but your puppet body..."

Ik Shangpei didn't bother to pay attention to him, closed the door and continued to play chess with Xiaomai, while training the military chess AI on the Internet. Jingyang took Xiaodi, Xiaofen and Xiaozi to the address given by Netero, and of course he had to study the information that Ik Shangpei sent to their mailbox...
