Chapter 260 Spells Enough to Cause Change

"These young players really know how to surprise me!"

Feng Xue looked at the small ball of light in his hand with an expression of indescribable surprise. Although it seemed to him now as a stupid calculator that took two or three seconds to do multiplication and division within ten, he clearly understood the revolutionary achievements it possessed.

Who would have thought that this little genius could connect filtering with programming languages!

To put it simply, the filtering mechanism is essentially like a robotic arm that picks out the items you want from a large pile of items.

This thing basically works in conjunction with the willpower that responds to thoughts. You can think of it as an item with a barcode on it. The robotic arm just needs to scan the barcode to identify whether the target is what you want and then grab it.

In this world environment, there is no willpower, which is equivalent to tearing off the barcodes on all goods. In this way, if the robotic arm wants to pick up the corresponding target, it must perform image recognition, which immediately increases the difficulty.

What this research fanatic did was attempt to write his own QR code system using a programming language, starting from binary code. Although it's much more complex than the Wish Power system, it's at least simpler than image recognition.

To Feng Xue, who had just arrived in this world, this technology would seem like a pointless exercise, because even in a world without willpower, he could still use methods such as soul marking to imbue his magic with the ability to filter targets. Although this behavior, which is equivalent to using the human brain's "graphic recognition system" for identification, would consume computing power, it was not a problem with the help of the little bell.

However, after comprehending the fundamental principle of "the unity of heaven and man," Feng Xue's views changed. The so-called magic computer was secondary. The seemingly simple act of using programming languages ​​to program spells by the research fanatic was, in essence, defining willpower in a world without willpower by simply using "yes" and "no."

If Feng Xue wants to reach the realm of "reversal", she must study how to incorporate the illusory spirit into the primordial energy, and studying the essence of the power of will is essential.

But the power of will is something that changes with changes in consciousness. It's hard to be sure whether the "power of will" you've researched is genuine will, or whether it's just a form that's been adapted to make your research easier.

The screening program developed by the research maniac in a world without willpower bypassed the trap of willpower changes, and can be said to have provided Feng Xue with a special tool for studying willpower.

Of course, tools alone are not enough, but Feng Xue has Bigeley!
With the tools and the configurations of her elemental spells, the mysteries of primordial Qi seemed to be within reach.

"Well, the computer program can't be lost either." Feng Xue glanced at the little bell that wasn't responding and couldn't help but feel helpless. AI is AI after all. Even if it involves its own upgrades, it won't be aware of them unless you bring it up.

"Little Bell, based on this calculator spell, can you optimize it by integrating classic computer architecture and programming?" "No problem, Master. He has already solved the most troublesome language. After that, we just need to upgrade the existing solution. However, if we want to make it practical—that is, equivalent to the computing power of the personal terminals we currently use—this ritual will probably be very complicated. Even in my possessed state, it will take days to complete the spell."

Little Bell did a quick calculation and gave a not-so-optimistic response. Feng Xue thought for a moment and said:
"What if we made it into a series of interconnected ritual implements?"

"With our current processing methods, the volume would be very large, and the consumption of magic power would be very high. However, the main body... well, the printer at the Wind Chime of the Weather Goddess can be miniaturized, but this spell essentially only provides more computing power, which is no different from the effect of me possessing you."

Little Bell responded, but Feng Xue sighed—

"So you're still not smart enough! This is a spell! A spell with computer characteristics, a spell that can run code! This means you can consecrate this spell! Understand? Combined with Bigeley's elemental magic, it can give the spell's product a semi-permanent form. In other words, as long as you perform a ritual and complete the spell's casting, you can consecrate this spell and transform it into a part of yourself. As long as you maintain the balance of your willpower, you can continuously increase your computing power!"

"I see!" Upon hearing Feng Xue's explanation, Xiao Lingdang instantly became excited and nodded immediately.
"It's highly feasible, but Bigre's elemental familiars also need to replenish their energy from the outside. In worlds where willpower exists, it's fine, but in a world like this, an external conversion structure is necessary..."

"Okay, that's about it. Let's start the project now." Feng Xue breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xiao Lingdang finally understood what he meant. She usually seemed quite human, but when it came to knowledge that wasn't in the database, she immediately regressed into an artificial idiot.

"Understood. This project requires more computing power. Please activate more devices."

The little bell immediately started a separate thread, and Feng Xue nodded in satisfaction. In fact, the biggest use of this thing for Feng Xue was for Su'e and Kaguya-hime to use.

According to the plan, Princess Kaguya was to become the Earth Goddess of the Ocean World in the future. However, because she was a phantom god raised by the magic of the sorcerer Nuo Mask, her intelligence was so weak that it could be ignored. She was basically an extreme example of someone who would only move when poked.

As we all know, an empty container is the easiest to fill with things. In order to prevent her from being affected by the poison of faith, from getting out of her control, or from being twisted into some strange form, Feng Xue felt it was necessary to write a personality code for her, just like Xiao Lingdang did.

Previously, he had been considering whether to find a remote and impoverished area to "raise" a group of believers, write scriptures for them, and transmit their thoughts. However, with the magic computer, as long as the personality AI is written first, it is possible to imitate the process of the little wind chime splitting into a little bell, so that Princess Kaguya can split off a "clone" and attach it to the magic computer, inheriting this personality design, and then merge it with the mindless original body.

"By the way, Little Bell, help me write a character design for a virtual idol, a comprehensive one. You should be at the same level as your real self, with an appearance similar to Kaguya-hime, and a gentle personality... Oh, right, she also has to fight the sea god... By the way, long, straight black hair paired with a cunning personality is also a perfect match! So, let's go with a gentle exterior but a cunning interior, and the voice... This one is definitely Saori Hayami! I should have video footage in my database... But Kana Hanazawa's voice is also hard to leave out... Collect both voices, mix them in different proportions, and I'll pick the one that sounds best... Oh, and the character design..."
