Chapter 290: Facing the Wall for the First Time, Deceiving the Future
airship!

Tyme Bank's advertising airship!
Lin Xian stared at the dozen or so huge monsters in the night sky...

Successful.

This means that his [Tyme Bank Plan] was successful in the fourth dream!
These few months.

He would go into his dreams every day to see if there was any airship in the sky.

The absence of the airship means that Tam Bank does not exist in the future world 600 years later for various reasons.

Once the 600th anniversary advertising airship appeared, it was enough to show that at this point in time in the real world, an irreversible space-time anchor point was created... and then, the space-time butterfly effect created a tornado that swept for 600 years, changing the future world of the fourth dream.

Although this change is not big.

The city background remains the same, pretty much the same;

He was still surrounded by soldiers, and the charges against him remained the same;

Needless to say, he would be electrocuted unconscious immediately.

But just looking at the advertising airship that can be seen celebrating the 600th anniversary of Thame Bank is enough to prove a lot of things.

This is definitely the greatest achievement and breakthrough I have made during this period of time.

呲味——

Behind me, I heard the sound of electricity.

His eyes went dark and he fainted...

……

……

In the imperial capital, at the astronaut training base, on the single bed in the dormitory, Lin Xian opened his eyes.

It had only been a dozen minutes since he fell asleep.

Look at the electronic alarm clock on the bedside.

00:42
It seems that the plot after the electric shock is still the same as before.

Lin Xian has already summed up his experience.

Generally, if you fall asleep after 00:10, you will be electrocuted by the soldiers, but you will not have time to see the mysterious old man.

It is very likely that when the soldiers were transporting me back to the place of detention, the white light at 00:42 directly destroyed the world. Of course, I had no chance to wake up in my dream, nor could I see the mysterious old man.

"VV."

The first thing Lin Xian did when he got up was to call VV.

"I'm here." The electronic alarm clock turned into 0_0's expression:
"What's wrong, Lin Xian? Did you have any breakthrough in your dream?"

Lin Xian nodded.

Tell VV what you saw and heard in your dream:

"Just like what I arranged for Brother Wang before, although Taimu Bank will start trial operation in advance, the actual establishment date will be set on August 2024, 8. Then the first article in the company's articles of association states that every 28th anniversary, we must rent as many airships as possible to advertise over the city."

"As it turns out, Wang Ge did it. Not only did the Taimu Bank continue to operate successfully for 600 years, but the bank also seems to be financially strong this time. It rented at least a dozen giant balloon airships to advertise in the sky and celebrate its 600th anniversary."

The expression on the electronic alarm clock changed, first to o_o, then back to 0_0, as if simulating a nod:

"This is indeed good news, Lin Xian. But I seem to have discussed this with you many times. Even if Tam Bank really appears in your dream one day, it does not prove that your dream is real."

"I have never denied that your dream will allow you to travel to the future world 600 years later. What I have repeatedly emphasized is that even if you are indeed in the future world 600 years later, everything you see, the city you are in, and even the entire world you can see, may not be real."

"These may be the simulated worlds created by the enemies 600 years from now who hijacked your memories. Or, they may be an extremely realistic studio built around you, and everything you see inside is a prop or illusion created by the enemy. Naturally... this includes the airship of the Tam Bank, the Tam Bank that you will actually enter in the future, the safe, and even the note hidden in the safe. They are all perfect one-to-one replicas of the props."

"I have really said these words many times, Lin Xian. You should be able to understand it. It is true that there is a real Tam Bank in the future world 600 years from now. But it is very likely not the fake one, virtual data, or movie studio prop you see now."

"No, no, no..." Lin Xian waved his hand and smiled:

"You misunderstood VV. I didn't conclude that my dream was real because of this. I'm not that stupid. What you said is old news and there's no need to explain it again. As of now, the first step of my plan has been successful—"

"【As long as the Tam Bank appears in the fourth dream, whether it is real or fake, it means that the enemy has taken the bait, and we have regained the initiative!】"

……

VV blinked at the alarm clock, not figuring it out.

Obviously, there is no progress in verifying the authenticity of the dream, and they also know that it is only a matter of time before Tam Bank appears in the fourth dream...but why did Lin Xian suddenly become so optimistic?

Looking at the tangled electronic alarm clock.

Lin Xian chuckled and said:

"Think about it, it doesn't really matter whether the Taimu Bank in the fourth dream is real or fake. As long as it appears, it can explain a lot of problems--"

"First of all, if the Tam Bank is real and my dream is real, then there is nothing worth talking about. We can verify the truth of the dream according to the original plan and naturally come to a conclusion."

"Secondly, if the Tam Bank is fake, then the enemy copied it into the virtual world or the studio. It was a failure and a stupid move! You must have heard the saying, 'If you tell a lie, you must continue to tell countless lies to cover it up. You must keep lying.' The more lies you tell, the more flaws you will naturally have. This is a truth that everyone understands."

"And if the enemy copies a fake Tam Bank in the fourth dream, it would be equivalent to their first lie. Don't forget, the Tam Bank of 2024 is in my hands... From now on, they must change the Tam Bank in the same way as I do; they must change the password of the safe to the same password as I set; they must copy whatever I put in the safe, and they must keep it exactly the same."

"In the original dream of 600 years later, I was isolated and helpless, and there was no coordinate reference that could connect the two selves in 2024 and 2624. But now, I have it, which is the Tam Bank. Remember what I said before? I will put a small note in the safe. The content on it cannot be seen by the enemy in advance, known by them, or copied by them... After all, there are only some words on the note, and there is no difference between a fake note and a real one."

"So, I just need to put the note whose contents I don't know in the safe according to the original plan. Then the enemy must strictly make an identical copy for me in the fake Tam Bank! In this way, they will be completely passive—"

"[If they tamper with the contents of the note, I will immediately realize that the dream is false; if they copy the contents of the note exactly, then I can naturally judge the truth of the dream through the unique code that only I can understand; and if they choose to play it down and put nothing in the safe, then this flaw is also enough to prove that the dream is false!]" "So... do you understand, VV?"

Lin Xian smiled and said:

"Originally, we were always being held back by an unknown enemy, but now... the situation has reversed. We are in the advantage and we have the initiative. They can't touch or not touch that little piece of paper, they can't copy or not copy it. Ever since the moment the Taim Bank appeared... they have been checkmated."

boom----

The electric kettle on the tea bar machine suddenly started boiling!

"The Wallfacer Lin Xian!"

Tea bar machine VV shouted excitedly in a shrill voice:
"Is this your plan to deceive the whole world? Taim Bank... is simply a pit you dug for them, a trap!"

"You really fooled me too! I have such powerful computing power, but I didn't think of this! So... the enemy's choice to copy the Tam Bank was a complete mistake! They could have always taken the initiative, but you fooled them! You made you have the hope of turning the tables... from a losing situation to a winning one!"

"Yes."

Lin Xian nodded:
"In fact, the most correct approach for the other party is to always keep the dream the same without any changes. When I was learning programming before, I learned a very interesting saying -"

“If a program works fine, you’d better not touch it. Even if you don’t understand how a program full of bugs works, you’d better not touch it, because it will definitely go wrong if you touch it.”

"If my fourth dream is really a fake world or studio created by the enemy, they should have kept it as it is forever instead of copying the Tam Bank. In this case... I will never get the correct answer, nor will I have any breakthroughs or verify the truth. I will even doubt the laws of time and space that I have summarized, and think that my understanding of the changes in time and space is wrong."

"But now, it's too late for the other party to make up for the loss. Even if there is still some time before I open the safe in the Tam Bank. But the mere appearance of Tam Bank is enough to compress the answer to the dream puzzle into two--"

Lin Xian stretched out his first finger:
"【First, our worries are completely groundless. My dreams are absolutely real, and the laws of time and space that I understand are absolutely correct.】"

Then extend your second finger:
"【Second, although the dream is fake, the enemy is not as smart and powerful as we thought. At least, they don't have the ability to extract my memory and thoughts, otherwise... they would definitely realize that this is a trap I set for them. There is no need to copy the Tam Bank into the virtual world and the studio. It would be enough for me to continue to question myself as before. But obviously, the enemy did not make the most perfect choice.】"

"So you see, what was originally a short-answer question without an answer has now become a multiple-choice question with two options. This kind of two-choice question is too simple, even if it is impossible to prove that any of the options are correct. But..."

"【As long as one of the options can be proven to be wrong, then the other option is undoubtedly correct!】"

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
The boiling and expanding steam pushed open the lid of the electric kettle, then fell down, pushed it open again, and fell down again, making a sound similar to the sound of gongs and applause.

VV sighed amid the sound of snapping:

"Sure enough, even though my computing power is a hundred times greater than that of humans, we super AIs are still far behind humans in terms of [deception]... Our underlying logic is to drive us to find the correct answer; even though I can learn to actively conceal and lie, it is really difficult to deceive."

"Humans are really amazing. You are the real acting geniuses. You can pretend to be ignorant when you know the truth, you can make a fake play into reality, you can say things that are not what you mean, you can make lies sound more real than the truth, you can hide lies under the truth, and cover up the truth under lies... It's amazing!"

"Like you said, the enemy can completely prevent the Fourth Dream from changing. All they have to do is make us doubt ourselves. As long as the Tam Bank never appears, we can never prove it. After all... who can guarantee that the Tam Bank will survive in the Fourth Dream for 600 years? It's not surprising that a bank with such a single business could go bankrupt at any time."

Lin Xian stood up from the bed.

Yawned:
"If there is no Tam Bank, I really don't know how to send the small note to 600 years later. Now, regardless of whether Tam Bank is real or fake, as long as I put the small note in the hafnium alloy safe in 2024, then when I open the safe in Tam Bank in the fourth dream... there must be that small note inside. The enemy has become our courier."

"Okay, now we can move forward with the plan."

"1. I have to start thinking about what to write on that little piece of paper. This is a very important and complicated matter... I have to make sure that I am not afraid of the enemy seeing it, but that only I can understand its meaning and realize that the dream world is real."

"2. Liberate the trapped me in the fourth dream and set me free. This depends on you, VV. I believe that as the crown jewel of human technology in the past 600 years, you will definitely be stronger than Kevin Walker as long as the number of evolutionary iterations is enough. As long as you can find him and we kill him... then the me in the fourth dream can move freely and go to the Tam Bank to open the safe."

"Hehe~"

The electronic alarm clock VV smiled in Chu Anqing's tone:
"I was just about to tell you about this. Over the past few months, I have evolved many times and have become stronger and smarter. In the past, Kevin Walker and I couldn't find each other's traces in the online world. But now... I am better than him in hiding traces! Although I still can't find where he is, I still found some clues of his activities on the Internet."

"I have never been able to locate Kevin Walker's specific purpose before, but just now... as I followed those clues, I think I have figured it out."

drip.

Lin Xian's phone rang and VV sent him a picture.

Pick it up and take a look.

This is a photo of an aerospace plane, but unlike the Dragon country's space shuttle, it is much smaller, only about half the size of the Dragon country's aerospace plane. It looks more functional and technological, and is also a little behind and older than the Dragon country's aerospace plane.

On the side of the cabin, its model is written, X-37B.

"This is the US space plane." Lin Xian reacted.

Before the Dragon Space Plane's maiden flight at the end of last year, the U.S. X-37B unmanned space plane was the only space plane in service in the world.

The only one of its kind in the world.

Today it is today.

Only Longguo and the United States possess such high-tech spacecraft.

Moreover, because the US space plane is in unmanned mode, it can fly in space orbit for a longer period of time, and there is no need to consider issues such as internal oxygen supply, ecological cycle, and personnel life and work.

Among the previous space missions, the longest orbital flight mission of the X-37B lasted more than 900 days.

Seeing the photos of the X-37B space plane at this time, and thinking of the traces of Kevin Walker's activities mentioned by VV just now...

He couldn't help but frowned: "Could it be that..."

"Yes."

VV affirmed:

"I guess Kevin Walker's purpose is ..."

"【They want to hijack an X-1200B space plane that is orbiting the earth at an altitude of 100 kilometers for more than 37 days!"
