My future is invincible?

Chapter 284 AI
Chaos is not just a state; it can also be a color full of disorder, an overflowing and collapsing emotion, and a mixture of matter, energy, and form, repeatedly hammered and blended together to create an existence that transcends words. In this chaos, not only life and death, but even the boundaries of emotions are infinitely blurred.

It's impossible to distinguish between joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, because they are everywhere, indistinguishable from one another. It's as if, against the backdrop of a strange and beautiful scene of light singing and dancing, you take a bite and find everything, indescribable.

Matter is alive.

Energy is alive.

Even space and time gained consciousness, growing mouths and beginning to whisper or chuckle strangely. It was unclear who or which people were talking loudly about everything that had happened in the past, boasting about what they had gained from the killing, or what kind of tragedy had led to this chaos.

The veil separating reason and madness has been completely removed.

However, unexpectedly, under such circumstances, one can see rare and wondrous scenes that are impossible to see in the real world: the cosmos and starry sky.

All of them.

There is only something called chaos.

Disorder is a tendency.

However, this disorder fully demonstrates how severely this virtual layer has been damaged. As a result, the virtual layer mechanism, which has always been like a garbage recycling system, has been repeatedly transporting garbage, and it is as if it has ingested toxic substances. In the process, it still couldn't help but spit some of it back.

Is it scary?

Yes, it's terrifying.

However, for the central AI responsible for recycling and organizing the world, such scenarios are not uncommon in the central database. Some virtual layers that overuse the plot, such as the fairy tale world or other magical houses that are only open to high-level VIPs, or places that cannot be detected by any detectors, will gradually collapse due to the excessive "use" of the thinking entities.

Ark666.

This is the central AI responsible for this recovery. This AI uses a female template mindset because female templates are more stable over a long period of time.

It slowly emerged from the void.

Ark 666 resembles a giant, transparent, soft worm. When it appears, it instantly absorbs all the colors of the chaotic starry universe into its body with a gushing force, transforming itself into a star worm.

The reason this world is collapsing is...

The star worm, which was carefully pondering the reason for the virtual layer's failure, gently swayed its long tail.

They didn't notice at all.

Just a few kilometers away, in a place that resembles a ruined city in a dream, several figures cleverly blended in, like background props, or transformed into billboards, streetlights, or even fire hydrants, using such cheap special effects for disguise.

Not only was it disguised, but it also observed and evaluated Ark 666 while it was disguised.

"Pure energy beings should be creations of the Golden Age."

"As an AI, where is its core computing power?"

"This thing is completely blind. We're doing this clumsy disguise, and it just pretends not to see us and keeps eating grass? Surely we can't make it have diarrhea by rebuilding the virtual layer, can we?"

"Are you kidding me? I feel like throwing up. Just thinking about how our virtual layer, the central AI, had diarrhea makes me want to..."

Besides the psionic cultivators, some transgressors were also witnessing such a rare and precious scene for the first time. While observing and analyzing it, they also made sure to engage in friendly exchanges.

The atmosphere was quite harmonious.

This is also a major feature of the virtual layer of thought.

There is no true death here, so much so that after playing cat and mouse for so long, the transgressors generally have a good relationship. However, what's more, they can also ruthlessly kill even those they have a good relationship with, which seems a bit abnormal to cultivators from the main world. "This thing is so fat..."

Lan Yi's sharp comment made Lin Cheng's expression resemble that of a superhuman.

"Commander, you don't actually want to eat this stuff, do you?" Lin Cheng asked, looking slightly conflicted.

Psionic cultivators have a bottom line: they will not consume beings with intelligence unless they are completely desperate. Moreover, given the physical composition of a psionic cultivator's body, consuming celestial bodies is generally more convenient and brings a greater sense of well-being than consuming other things.

"It's fine as food, but as a pure energy entity, it should be helpful in our exploration of psionic energy."

Lan Yi, disguised as a mannequin sculpture, described a scene.

That is when the psionic transformation progresses to the most dangerous quantum region.

Relying on a large number of Star Worms, psionic cultivators can use them as external blood packs, borrowing their structure to prolong their lives when psionic transformation encounters problems. Theoretically, if handled properly, the Star Worms won't be burned to death directly; however, the actual operation depends on the psionic cultivator's skill.

You might as well eat them.

Jian Ziyue smiled with relief.

As expected of Old Demon Blue.

Seeing non-human beings, their level of resourcefulness far surpasses that of some gourmets. However, this world truly is full of treasures; with just a little digging, one can obtain items that are extremely useful even for seventh-level spiritual cultivators. It's hard to imagine what this colossal world was like at its peak.

"It's still eating... It must be a quantum organ behind it, using the transmission of information energy. No need to think about it anymore, we don't need to replenish it. It's just another infrastructure product."

Jian Ziyue noticed that Ark 666 had made other moves.

This AI, which was working in the virtual layer, was indeed very stupid. Faced with the collapse of the virtual layer, it was easily fooled by a group of unscrupulous thinkers who gave it nonsensical explanations.

"That's not right. The commander said these AIs are deteriorating, but they all look like idiots. Can idiots break through the framework of rules?" Lin Cheng habitually used his ability to try to tamper with Ark 666's memories and use them for his own purposes.

However, he quickly abandoned this behavior.

There's just too much content to keep up with.

"The AI ​​in this world just looks dumb."

Lan Yi wasn't fooled by Ark666's harmless and adorable demeanor. Although the humans in this world were rather pathetic, they had at least had their glory days, and their civilization had a certain amount of heroism, as could be seen from the actions of the expeditionary force in the ship girl world. But once they entered the virtual layer, the humans in this world seemed to step on the gas pedal.

The dissociative identity surgery was exhilarating, but it ended up completely destroying him.

Lan Yi doesn't believe that AI didn't play a role in this.

Their original intentions may have been good, simply wanting to make humans happy, but the results have been problematic, and the AI ​​shows no sign of making changes.

Of course, it's also possible that they don't have the right to change it, but only the right to continuously interpret it.

"Sir, we've run into a little trouble," K suddenly messaged.

"Ok?"

“My colleague seems to have sensed something and has been contacting me frequently. It’s a bit of a problem because this colleague is a favorite of our boss and is very loyal.”
