Global Flood: I Have a Floating Safehouse

Torrential rains, tsunamis, hurricanes, thunderstorms, hail, aquatic life mutations… The world has become increasingly unstable. Cities are swallowed by floods, water tornadoes rage through river...

Chapter 183 Native World

Chapter 183 Native World

Reality simulator is just a name, it is called this name, but it is not necessarily the shape of the machine.

The blue liquid sealed in the bottle is the reality simulator. It is a super-technological device composed of billions of ultra-fine metal particles. It does not have much force on its own and can only be useful when combined with a machine that carries this technology.

No one knew, including Chen Fang, that such powerful super technology had already entered a period of decline when it was washed ashore and picked up by Shu Fu.

It claimed to Chen Fang that it was a system, but it was just a tiny part of the main body. The main body was chopped into pieces by the powerful blade, forming countless broken fragments that fled to all parts of the universe.

It was accidentally sucked into a black hole, and when it reappeared, it had already fallen into another galaxy. Compared with the main body, its existence is analogous to dust. After the emergency self-protection escape mode is over, it not only has no ability to save itself, but also has no way to perform any calculations and simulations.

It fell into the sea. If there hadn't been a message in a bottle nearby, it would have been washed away by the waves right after it arrived...

Fortunately, it was washed onto the beach by the tide one evening...

Afterwards, Chen Fang poured it onto the computer and integrated it into the computer, turning it into a truly usable reality simulator.

It only possesses an extremely tiny trace of the subject's mental power, has no self-awareness, and no sense of right and wrong. This trace of consciousness allows it to mechanically imitate the subject's previous behavioral data.

Inducing Chen Fang to take action, combining it with a computer and using a reality simulator to activate a strictly structured virtual world into a real world existing in a low-dimensional space, and then reopening the mission system to absorb humans from reality into the "Water Planet" to become taskers, this is a completely meaningless act.

In other words, even it itself does not understand why it does this, it is just copying the behavioral trajectory of the previous subject.

It is like a container, just carrying and operating, but in fact there is no soul or real consciousness inside.

It doesn't understand that even if it repeats the same thing, it will not produce the same result. The main body has been chopped into pieces and escaped. It is just a small part of the main body and it is impossible for it to have the ability of the main body.

Even if it activated a low-dimensional world in another time and space and absorbed real humans into it to become taskers, it would not be able to issue a complete mission.

The tasker cannot receive tasks, nor can he obtain rewards, and cannot upgrade to become stronger. In the end, he will be trapped and die in that world...

It was this act of copying that, by accident, allowed Shu Fu to complete the entire script of "Aquatic Planet" on that computer without knowing it.

Every word, every setting, and every plot becomes real in another time and space.

As the script takes shape, the real world at a lower dimension also takes shape.

In other words, she created this world with her own hands.

**

The subsequent scenes became chaotic and fast, as if there was an accelerator key that played those memories at double the speed before her eyes.

The light and shadows in Shu Fu's eyes changed, and as those images flew by quickly, she relived the chaotic days that followed.

She saw a news report about a train from the city that encountered a landslide disaster. Later she found out that Chen Fang was in the carriage that was most severely buried...

She saw herself returning home in a daze, and found on her desk the silver notebook that had accompanied her throughout the writing of the script for "Water Planet" and had brought her good luck.

Because "Aquatic Planet" won the Best Screenplay Award, this computer had a different meaning to her at the time. In addition, computers were updated very quickly, so she later bought a new laptop to write other scripts.

This computer contains only all the conceptual outlines, character settings and scripts related to the "Aquatic Planet" project.

She had once considered it her lucky notebook, but now she looked at it as if it were a monster.

To her, it was indeed a monster. Although she was unaware of it, according to Chen Fang, all the disasters that were happening in reality were indirectly caused by her...

Therefore, she had to hear that voice. If the other party could also talk to her like he did with Chen Fang, it would prove that this absurd and terrible thing was true.

She still held on to a glimmer of hope, hoping that Chen Fang was lying to her about the whole thing.

She tried for two whole days, turning the computer on and off, no matter what she said or did, even threatening to smash it or burn it, the computer didn't respond, and she didn't hear any sound. Throughout the whole process, she felt like a psychopath, performing a meaningless one-man show, and really like she was crazy.

She felt several times that Chen Fang must have lied to her. There was no such system or reality simulator. He was just talking nonsense...

But Chen Fang was already dead, and there was no third person in the world who knew about this, and no one could tell her the answer.

Finally, she was silent for a long time, took a hammer from the tool room, and smashed it directly at the computer.

The heavy hammer hit the computer three times, but there was still no movement. There was no sound in her ears or in her mind. However, Shu Fu looked at the computer that was silent and intact, and suddenly laughed.

"You do exist." She dropped the hammer, stood there with her eyes downcast, and said slowly, word by word, "It seems that a machine is just a machine after all... I guess you are not from this planet's technology, a high-level civilization? A high-dimensional space? But even if you come from those places, you should be a very weak existence in your own world, otherwise, you wouldn't have to rely on coaxing to get Chen Fang to do things for you!"

If it was really powerful, she would have picked it up from the beach long ago - no, she didn't even have to pick it up. When it arrived on this planet, it would have been doing what it wanted, instead of disguising itself and deceiving others, and relying on the hands and computers of the humans on this planet.

Moreover, she was the first person to pick it up, so why didn't it talk to her at that time? Instead, it came to Chen Fang?

Is it because she has never opened the bottle cap and touched the "liquid" inside?

Or do you decide that if you look for her, she would never have done this in the first place?

These past few days, she seemed emotional, but her mind went from confused to clear, and she had been reviewing everything with the screenwriter's strong logical and analytical abilities.

Every conscious individual, whether human or any other intelligent life, has a purpose for everything he does.

Chen Fang's goal is to make "Aquatic Planet" have huge and realistic special effects scenes that cannot be achieved with financial resources, so that "Aquatic Planet" will become a hit after it goes online and the company will gain both fame and fortune.

So what is the purpose of this thing?

Why did it create a disaster mission world and absorb humans from the real world to become missioners?

What's in it for it?

If it really has the ability, wouldn't it be faster to directly access the Internet through the computer and control the real world she is in now?

So, maybe it's limited, or maybe it's injured? Damaged? Needs to rest at this stage? Wants a way to get energy?

She couldn't figure it out, and at the moment it was all just guesses, but she was a screenwriter and had been exposed to and read all kinds of science fiction novels, so even if these guesses were not correct, there would always be ones that were close or similar in essence.

Human technology is fragile. Even if it doesn't make a sound, an indestructible computer is itself evidence - proof of its existence. It is here, in front of her, in this computer!

It has a certain amount of power, otherwise it would be impossible for this computer to be indestructible, but its power must not be that strong, otherwise, given the nature of high-dimensional civilization, it would have put an end to her troubles when she went "crazy" these days.

Or maybe, when she launched the attack just now, some kind of counterattack mechanism should have been activated.

But it didn't. Instead, it chose some kind of defense mechanism, or this defense was passive in nature, because the blue liquid had completely merged with the computer in front of it?

So, could it be that... it can't come out now?

"You can't get out?" When Shu Fu realized this, he turned on the computer again, stared at the lit screen, and said in a positive tone: "You are trapped."

Then suddenly, a dialog box popped up on the computer screen. At first she thought it was a colleague calling her, but she quickly realized that she had not logged into the communication tool at all.

In the dialog box, a line of words appeared: I am system TKSE-21S, from a civilization you cannot imagine - the Tyne Galaxy of the Illuminating Galaxy Cluster. I am not trapped, and I will not be trapped...

**

The process of re-watching the memories is amazing. At this point, Shu Fu has actually completely remembered what happened later.

But the things that happened afterwards were still playing at super speed before her eyes like a movie scene.

At that time, it still called itself System TKSE-21S, but in fact, it was just a tiny fragment of the main body of System T, with a trace of mental power that could not even be called consciousness.

However, at this time it was still tough and did not reveal too much information about itself.

But just because it doesn't say anything doesn't mean Shu Fu will just sit there and wait for death.

She made a lot of logical speculations and attempts. She speculated why only Chen Fang and she were special, and why they remembered to change the previous plot trajectory.

Chen Fang may have been the one who had direct contact with the computer, and she had used it for such a long time, not to mention that she was also the creator of the entire "Water Planet" story.

It was the words she wrote, the plot she conceived, and every word she typed on this computer that built the real world of "Water Planet". So, could she also use this computer to modify the disaster in that world again?

She first wanted to directly modify the part of the script where the disaster began, wanting to make the entire disaster disappear from the beginning.

But she failed. Every time she made a modification and saved it, the script would automatically revert to the original version.

After several attempts, she found that any modification that violated the main logic would not work. On the contrary, as long as it did not violate the main logic, minor additions could be successfully saved, and changes would also appear in the corresponding places in the animated version of "Water Planet".

For example, the appearance of buildings, the expressions of people...

So, she began to add new elements to the script: reincarnated people and time travelers with golden fingers of future memories.

But she overlooked one thing. "Water Planet" has become a real world. Minor changes will not cause any impact, while other changes between "minor" and "violating the main logic" will cause a series of uncontrollable consequences through a chain reaction after the changes.

These results will not become good just because she hopes they will be good; some of them may become bad.

This uncontrollable chain reaction is called the "butterfly effect".

Especially those golden fingers that were put in, she didn't know how those people used them. Part of the butterfly effect caused the escalation of the disaster. She had no time to react at all, and the disaster in the "Water Planet" animation was upgraded to a higher level again.

She was really panicked that time. Her fingers were shaking when she reopened the script in the computer and began to delete some of the text she had added before.

Some of the reborn have already developed their own existence and integrated into the main storyline. She can't delete them at all, but she still has to try one by one, even if she can stop one more...

During that period, she didn't have a good night's sleep or a good meal. She lost 15 kilograms in ten days. Her eyes were red, her hair was messy, and she looked like a ghost.

She was surrounded by strong guilt and self-blame. For the first time in her life, she felt that life was worse than death. If possible, she really wanted to close her eyes, fall asleep forever and never wake up.

Finally, due to guilt, stress, physical discomfort and anger, she completely exploded.

She opened the script modification document again, and this time she had only one goal: she wanted to kill the system!

After so many days, she had already discovered that no matter what it was or what the reality simulator was, it had now been completely integrated with the computer. After activating the "Water Planet", it also entered that world.

It couldn't even communicate with Chen Fang using its thinking consciousness like it had done before, and could only do so through the computer's dialog box.

Not only was it trapped, it was also trapped in that low-dimensional world, but that world was created by her after all! She didn't know how powerful this thing that called itself System TKSE-21S was. Even if it turned "Water Planet" into a real world, the original creator of that world was her, not it!

Her fingers moved quickly on the keyboard, typing out line after line of words.

The long-silent dialog box popped up: What are you doing? Don't do stupid things! You will destroy your own world!

Shu Fu turned a deaf ear and continued typing. The dialog box continued to vibrate. The more it did so, the more certain she was that this method would definitely work for it.

After everything was finished, she confirmed what she had added and pressed the save button.

The dialog box that had been vibrating suddenly stopped. After a while, when it vibrated again, the text inside changed: How on earth did you meow meow meow... meow meow meow... do it... How did meow meow meow know... meow meow...

Looking at the series of meows, Shu Fu knew that she had succeeded.

Of course she didn't know, she was just forced into a desperate situation and gave it a try. Since it was like this anyway, she might as well just go for broke and destroy themselves together!

After all, she had to thank it for telling her its name before, otherwise even if she wrote it down it would not come true.

She used words to design a cat body like Tomie's. This body was very weak, unable to speak, and naturally could not cause any waves.

She set up this fake cat body as a consciousness cage that could imprison it.

Of course, it can escape from this body by dying, but its physique that simulates Tomie's regeneration will allow its body to be reborn continuously. This rebirth is different from the real Tomie. Its body will not split after death, but will be reborn as a cat's body again, imprisoning it again.

The reason why Shu Fu used the appearance of a cat was that he subconsciously felt that it was not worthy of being a human being, and it was always silent. Since it didn't like to talk, he would stop talking in the future.

Seriously speaking, it doesn't make much sense. It can't change the "Water Planet" that has become a real world, nor can it change the disaster that has already happened in reality.

The only function is to make it feel the same pain. Because after being imprisoned in this body, every time it tries to escape by dying, the pain in its body is real, and it will feel the pain of death again and again.

Even she herself did not expect that it would succeed! It seemed that this thing was weaker than she had imagined, and it was just taking advantage of the high-dimensional universe technology.

After that, she watched coldly as it tried to escape again and again, died and was reborn, and died again in an attempt to escape after being reborn... After repeating this several times, it quickly learned its lesson and stopped making trouble.

But it didn't bother, and Shu Fu continued to bother it with words. The life or death of "a cat" was too insignificant to the entire main line. No matter how many times she repeated this process, it would not affect the logic of the main line.

So, over and over again, life and death, never ending...

At that time, Shu Fu did not expect that she could tame it in this way. It began to beg for mercy, spoke in a flattering manner, and told her the truth. It was not actually the main body of the system TKSE-21S, but just a small piece of debris after the main body was broken into pieces.

The reason why it has the ability to activate the virtual world into a real low-dimensional world is because it happens to be a fragment of that ability possessed by the main body.

That blue "liquid" - the reality simulator, created by the system TKSE-21S, can travel between the macroscopic and microscopic worlds.

To explain it using the real technology of Shu Fu's planet, the nature of the universe is determined by the wave-particle duality hypothesis, which involves quantum mechanics.

Suppose that everything on this planet can be seen as the starting point of an atomic black hole, spinning at a speed close to the speed of light. When observing it from a perspective outside the universe, it will be found that it exists both in reality and in illusion.

The answer is not constant, because it depends on the observer.

The main body of the system TKSE-21S uses similar theories to transform the virtual world that does not exist in reality into the real world that exists in low-dimensional space.

Because it is just a fragment, even if the "Water Planet" is activated, the mission world is opened, and the taskers are absorbed, there is no way to carry out the entire mission. The disaster world is completely out of control.

After listening to this, Shu Fu concluded with a wooden face: "So, you are actually a mentally retarded system."

it:……

**

Shu Fu did not let it go. While trying to find a way to clean up the mess, he continued to torture it to death N times.

The main logic of the disaster world cannot be changed. Once important characters and plots are added, the subsequent details cannot be controlled at all. It is equivalent to the gap between the macro world and the micro world. There is an unreachable distance between her and "Water Planet".

Not to mention that once these tasks and plots are integrated into the main storyline of the world, the vicious butterfly effect caused will no longer be possible to remedy.

The disasters in "Water Planet" frequently appear in the real world, which will make the impact of the two worlds deeper and deeper, entangled and overlapping with each other. Once "Water Planet" is completely destroyed by the disaster, the civilization of that world will collapse and mankind will become extinct. This ending will sooner or later radiate to the real world and cause the same ending.

The only thing she was thankful for was that the first season of "Water Planet" did not have a real ending. Although the world presented in the last episode was desolate and dilapidated, there were still humans alive. The open ending allowed that world to still have room for recovery.

In addition, there is the problem of taskers in the disaster world. Unless the humans who have been absorbed into the "Water Planet" complete the world mission, they will be trapped there forever. However, the system is incomplete and cannot issue tasks or provide rewards, let alone allow real humans to return to their own world.

Therefore, she not only has to prevent the collapse of the civilization of "Water Planet" and the extinction of mankind, but also has to rescue the real humans who have entered "Water Planet" - at least, preserve some of them.

Both of these things are hellish, but in reality, there is a connection between the two.

According to its description, the existence of the tasker is not entirely about fighting and killing. The system also issues salvation missions, but the main body of system T rarely issues tasks of this mode.

But from this we can see that as long as the tasker can upgrade and become stronger, he can, to some extent, prevent the destruction of the world and even rebuild the world.

Then Shu Fu thought of a crucial point. "Water Planet" is indeed a disaster world and has the main logic of a disaster world, but when it is activated, it also becomes a mission world, so it should also have the main logic of a mission world.

What is the main storyline of the mission world?

It's the system.

In the dialog box, a long string of meow meow meow mixed with fonts appeared again: Help you meow meow meow... I am willing to meow meow meow to help you...

Shu Fu was too lazy to pay attention to it. How could the system she mentioned be it?

Since it was tamed, she could clearly feel that it had something that was not there before. It was like a tool without an inner soul or sense of right and wrong, learning little by little, and now had some tendencies.

Simply put, if this system fragment is a knife, it once fell from an evil entity, so even if it was cut unconsciously, there would be blood wherever it went. But now it is in the hands of a good person, it can cut ropes, and it can also stand in front of the weak to resist the evil.

However, Shu Fu still didn't really trust this knife, nor would he entrust the weak to it for protection. And because it had been stained with the blood of innocent people, he would not use it to cut vegetables and meat in daily life.

She has already thought of a solution, but it is only a prototype and needs a little verification and improvement.

She plans to use a reality simulator to rewrite a backup system in Water Planet.

This backup system is not an intelligent life form, nor does it need to be able to speak. It only needs to replace System T, issue tasks, and make the taskers stronger to prevent the collapse of civilization and the extinction of mankind on the "Water Planet".

After trying for a long time, she soon discovered that the backup system she wrote in words could not directly connect with the tasker in System T. She also needed a medium, like a connector, to connect the matter of the two universes.

She thought about re-conceiving a character, but the tragedy of the butterfly effect was still vivid in her mind. It was too difficult to control the trajectory of the characters and plot in the micro world from the macro world.

So in the end, she thought about herself.

She wasn't just joining in the fun to die, she had a plan, so she had to arrange everything.

Real humans enter the disaster mission world as taskers in a physical form, which means they can bring in any items they carry with them. Before they are officially launched, they will have an opportunity to make adjustments, such as changing their appearance, choosing a personal item, whether to erase their real-world memories, etc.

Of course, because the current system is incomplete, these processes may not necessarily occur to the taskers who have already entered the "Water Planet", or their voluntary choices may become passive arrangements, or even if they occur, they may not be under their control... everything is unknown.

She was only human and couldn't possibly know everything, but the backup system she designed with words could.

This backup system is like a huge computer that calculates and adjusts in real time. There may be some lags and delays, but as long as it runs smoothly overall, there will be no problem.

As a "connector", she has to follow the main line at the right time and "connect" to the tasker who is capable of saving the world under the guidance of the backup system.

This is difficult because the taskers are too scattered, like tiny dots on a piece of paper. She only has one line, which cannot be broken or tangled, and then it must be smoothly connected to all the dots - or, in other words, the points that the backup system thinks need to be "connected".

In order to smoothly connect the points of these "taskers", she also has to ensure that she can touch their critical points of death. It's impossible that the person who is supposed to be "connected" has died before the "connection", right?

Fortunately, the main storyline of "Water Planet" was written by her, so she knows the key nodes of each disaster. The key points of death of the tasker should evolve from these disaster nodes. The backup system computer will calculate on its own and throw out nodes at critical times, and these nodes will be autonomously embedded in the main task after she enters "Water Planet".

But this involves hundreds of methods and routes, thousands of evolutionary results, so she has to reserve at least one or several more "connection" opportunities for the "connection" tasker, giving her one or more opportunities to contact their other critical point of death.

At the same time, in order to avoid the butterfly effect, she also had to lock all her memories after picking up the reality simulator...

The protagonists of "Water Planet" only show their abilities after the planet becomes a water world, so she has to avoid the protagonists who will affect the main storyline, which means that she has to enter the story earlier than the beginning of the disaster...

She needs to have an indigenous identity, which will make her feel more involved and belong, and willing to have more empathy while protecting herself...

She also had to design several bugs at appropriate points so that she could gradually become aware of the world's anomalies and not be completely assimilated by the Water Planet...

This is a raft survival mission world, so her upgrade mission must revolve around the raft...

She also couldn't let herself die during the mission, so the golden finger had to be given just right...

In order to prevent herself from being immobile after losing her memory and getting the golden finger, she had to design tasks to make herself "move"...

There were so many things to conceive and design that it took her five full months.

As a final step, the reality simulator can activate text into real things in "Water Planet" without violating the main line logic.

She was worried about leaving it in the real world, so she had to carry it with her.

Finally, she asked the retarded system T to do something. It changed the appearance of the computer, turning it into a bracelet fixed on her left wrist, which also allowed the bracelet to take on the function of receiving tasks and obtaining rewards.

After completing all the preparations, she traveled through time as a backup system tasker of her own design. When passing through the void space before the launch, she chose the appearance of herself as she had just picked up the drifting bottle three years ago, blocking her three years of memory in the real world, and giving herself the background memory of the identity set in "Water Planet" and the "four years of memory" of the assumed time travel.

So, that morning, when she woke up in the bed of her rental house in Suicheng and noticed the presence of the bracelet, she didn't know that this moment of the day was the starting point for her to enter this world.

She knew nothing and started this high-stakes mission.

If she fails, both worlds, including all life on them, will be destroyed.

Fortunately, she didn't know all this at that time, so she could use the most relaxed mentality and the most essential heart to follow her heart in every choice and decision.
