Chen Feng has always been a self-contradictory person.
He is always denying himself. He
says that it is impossible, I can't do it, I am insignificant, and I am definitely powerless, but he finally succumbs to his conscience and gets involved, and can't extricate himself.
He also said that he doesn't need to care about the flood a thousand years later, and he should make good use of the resources of future generations and take care of his life in the 21st century.
That is the way he must keep moving forward, not the real life that repeats itself in a year.
But he still didn't do it.
He used to be indifferent and easy-going, and never thought of being a leader. He also said that he would live forever, hiding in the dark and doing things secretly, and was determined not to be the first to do something. But when he really faced it, he did not hesitate to become a leader and shoulder the life and death of billions of people.
In many timelines that he has experienced so far, Chen Feng has never enjoyed a relaxed and comfortable life except for the two years when he was a slacker.
What's more annoying is that he should have lived a very happy salted fish life in those two lives. He knows that he felt it, but now he has not really experienced it, and can only feel jealous.
Since then, his life has become more and more miserable. He has money, power, fame and influence, but he has never been truly happy.
Counting the life in each life, it is almost equivalent to him exchanging two years of carefree life for hundreds of years of accumulated self-torture.
If it were the old him, he would definitely scold himself for being a fool, wondering what he was trying to do, and at the same time he wanted to collapse but couldn't.
But now, not only is he not numb in the struggle, but he is unconsciously immersed in it.
It's just that this kind of intoxication is very painful. Every time he wakes up, he is the saddest.
Watching the universe passing by the porthole of the miniature spaceship like a stream of light under the drive of the curvature engine, and the sesame-sized blue planet in the distance is getting closer and closer, Chen Feng's inexplicable emotions are so complicated that it is difficult to describe.
To cheer up, he shook his head and muttered silently in his heart.
God of learning bless, the material of the safe that Fatty Ou dropped into the sea is really corrosion-resistant and degradable as described in the promotional materials, and the safe has not been kicked away by some large deep-sea mollusk that is full and has nothing to do as a toy ball in the past thousand years.
Chen Feng's plan for this trip is to retrieve the only "antique safe" that Ou Junlang failed to bury properly as originally planned, and the only one that has not been found by later generations.
In these three days, he only did one thing.
More targeted, to analyze the opportunity for the birth of Ray.
He kept reading the history of technology over and over again. There were thousands of complicated pieces of information in his mind. One by one, they emerged from the chaotic and turbid black mud deep in his mind, like tiny bubbles gurgling out of anaerobic reactions under the mud.
These particles of information had no obvious connection with each other, and the time span was extremely large.
There were many changes he had caused in the most recent timeline before and after his departure in the 21st century.
There were also many details before and after Ra came to the world for the first time in the early 30th century. There were
also two direct encounters with Ra's war machines after he came here, as well as his indirect understanding of Ra through searching in the database and talking to other people.
And there was the last sentence he heard from Ray, which was spoken in the same voice as Zhong Lei, and even had a hint of emotional fluctuations. There were
also many details about what he did and the evolution of human history in the many timelines where Ray was never born.
The level of information he obtained was too scattered and unsystematic, and theoretically his thinking was unlikely to succeed.
But compared to other scholars of this era, his scatteredness was an advantage that others could not imagine.
Only his mind was filled with historical materials from several past timelines where Ray had never existed.
This information was not redundant, but the scalpel in his hand to uncover the mystery.
He had considered whether to seek help from others, but the moment he learned that Titan Court had been emptied by Ray, he immediately gave up the idea.
Fortunately, as a galactic human, he was amazingly intelligent, or perhaps the universe really gave him some inspiration. During these three days of confusion, he really gathered the countless information bubbles in his mind into a huge bubble, and made it rise from the sea surface of his mind, turning into a huge bubble ball with colorful lights in the air.
Bathed in the sunshine of thought, the bubbles reflected these colorful waves, and finally condensed into a "painting".
The painting gave him the answer, and Chen Feng figured it out.
He then used this answer to specifically look for those seemingly trivial things in history that are often easily overlooked, and got a definite conclusion.
The name "Ray" was indeed just a name that humans forcibly gave her based on her pronunciation and her characteristics.
But in her own logic, it should be "Lei", but humans don't know it.
But Lei is not Zhong Lei, the two are completely different.
The difference in voice and emotional expression between Lei a hundred years ago and now proves another thing, that she has been "evolving" in the hundred years since she woke up.
She is constantly trying to move from an electronic life to a human.
Her state is not static, but dynamic.
Then it proves one thing in turn, that before Lei spoke her first words to humans in 2919, she must have already existed in history.
Chen Feng kept pushing his analysis of Lei forward, focusing on the countless details and some strange points in the development of information networks in these nine hundred years.
He used history as a scalpel to butcher the cow and came to a frustrating conclusion.
Lei was indeed created by him personally. It was not indirectly triggered by his changing history, but was directly related to him.
Lei's consciousness was born in 2123, when he died in space and played "The Blade" as his funeral song in his last words.
This is the first important node.
Because of his personal reputation and what he did, his last words were played repeatedly by countless people, and echoed almost endlessly in the Internet, which was just budding at the time and used quantum computers as servers, forming Internet memory.
There must be many of his fans in Xingfeng Light and Shadow Studio, a subsidiary of Xingfeng Entertainment that he founded but later sold.
These people could not help but play the last words of the great founder.
Before that, he left an important program to Light and Shadow Studio, and also left its further development ideas intact, which was an artificial intelligence self-taming engine for rendering visual special effects.
In the past hundred years, this intelligent engine has never been abandoned, but has been constantly upgraded and evolved through manual adjustment and self-taming.
Chen Feng's "wisdom" stunned the programmers of the 21st century.
They never imagined that someone could create a program kernel and upgrade ideas that would not be outdated after a hundred years, and it would not be outdated in another five hundred years!
But Chen Feng did it. The software Starlight has played an important role in the entire hundred years of human film history and even in more fields, and will continue to be important.
The self-taming engine, which has been upgraded many times in self-taming and human intervention, will inevitably capture Chen Feng's last words, which have the highest weight in the nascent quantum network, and the "Sharp Edge" in it.
Then, as the employees in the Light and Shadow Studio clicked to play again, the song was firmly remembered by the self-taming engine.
This song was written about Chen Feng, but it was created by Zhong Lei, the art master, when her emotions were at their most intense when she was young.
The consciousness of "Lei" has been born and continues to sprout.
This is the second important node.
After grasping this point, everything that happens next becomes logical.
In the basic settings of the self-taming engine, there is a constant collection of external information to improve its own preset settings.
Lei will definitely analyze more of Zhong Lei's works, including "Morning Breeze".
It is even possible that she has completed the decompilation of "Songs from the World" earlier.
She began to become more complex and became a kind of existence that even Chen Feng today cannot understand.
In all of Zhong Lei's works, she has obtained almost complete true emotions belonging to Zhong Lei.
But she has not completely escaped from the scope of AI, and has not developed autonomous consciousness. She is still just a super AI serving humans.
She is just silently observing and learning all human behaviors while serving humans.
Chen Feng's conclusion on this matter is not an inference, but solid evidence.
In the hundreds of years that Lei continued to serve the film industry, countless people used her to make many movies.
In the sound and light effects of these movies, something very special is always exposed from time to time.
The accompaniment soundtrack with extremely strong emotions, as if the virtual characters really came to life...
"The Blade of the Blade (Part 1)", which is now ranked first on the Mars On-Demand Ranking, is the most obvious evidence.
In the film, the scene where Chen Feng stands at the scene of a traffic accident and plays "Bath of Fire" in front of Zhong Lei is made entirely of special effects, but the vivid micro-expressions of the characters in the film almost make Chen Feng mistakenly think that he is recalling his past.
If nothing unexpected happens, Lei will serve mankind forever, unable to escape the limitations of the three laws of robotics that Chen Feng preset in his core.
But another accident happened.
In 2877, a group of unmanned construction robots dug up the ninth "antique safe" belonging to Chen Feng while digging underground pipe network channels and laying the giant trunk biological high-temperature optical fiber of the quantum network.
Because this safe was not in the pre-set mission of the construction robot, the excavator broke the box and scattered the items inside.
Although the system automatically identified that this was an important cultural relic, the robot quickly collected the scattered cultural relics, but in the end something was missing.
A hair belonging to Zhong Lei.
