Chapter 374: Bug

~11 min read 2,047 words

Wu Pifu sat on the pedestrian chair by the square with a bruised nose and a swollen face. He pressed a few times on a mobile phone in his hand, finally opened the interface, and then dialed a phone number directly. After a while, Wu Zhizhi's voice finally came from the phone: "Hello?"

"I am Wu Pifu." Wu Pifu touched his swollen lips and said with a slightly leaking voice.

Wu Zhizhi was silent for a moment. Wu Pifu keenly heard a very low laugh, so he said seriously, "I'm talking about business, stop laughing!"

Wu Zhizhi laughed out loud directly. After laughing for a few seconds, Wu Zhizhi's voice said, "I am Beelzebub now. If you have something to say, say it. By the way, where did you get the phone?"

Wu Pifu looked at the phone and said, "I took it from a passerby at random. Don't worry, I stuffed a stack of money... Even if it was only for a day or so, it was enough for me to restore my control over my flesh and blood to between Mingjin and Anjin. I can still do this little thing. Don't talk about this. I ask you, what is going on with the three of you disappearing?"

Beelzebub became serious and said, "We arrived about two or three months earlier than you. After coming here, the consciousness of the three of us was trapped in the same body. Our identity is Wu Zizhi, the sister of Wu Pifu, nicknamed Wu Zhizhi. After entering this weekend scene, we knew this information. At the same time, the better we played the role of Wu Zizhi, the slower we dissolved, and the more we deviated from the way of dealing with this role, the faster we were dissolved."

Wu Pifu was silent for a long time and said, "Role-playing?"

"No!"

Beelzebub denied immediately, "It's role abnormality!"

She thought for a while and said, "This world should be a virtual scene world constructed from your memory, thinking, experience, etc. A mysterious supreme power monitors the entire world. As long as it deviates from the 'reality' it thinks, then the correction power will descend, so the more we conform to the character of Wu Zizhi, the less correction power we encounter, and vice versa."

"... Final Producer?"

Wu Pifu muttered, and he immediately asked, "Then why am I okay? You three should all know that I am not the original real Wu Pifu. I am the latest personality produced after countless iterations of Wu Pifu in cryosleep. Whether it is behavior or memory, it actually has nothing to do with Wu Pifu at this time... Why didn't I feel this correction?"

Beelzebub was silent for dozens of seconds, and then she said, "I can only think of three possibilities. When I called your phone number this morning, you mentioned the disappearance of the Superbrain. The first possibility is that the Final Producer is absorbing your Superbrain."

"The second possibility is that your heart's negative backlash has taken effect. That terrifying negative makes the Final Producer dare not correct you, nor absorb you."

"The third possibility... is a bit unbelievable."

Wu Pifu also vaguely thought of the first two. One is that the Final Producer is absorbing him, and the other is that the Final Producer dare not absorb him.

He didn't expect that there was a third possibility?

"Tell me, what is the third possibility." Wu Pifu asked.

Beelzebub took a breath and said, "This is a real world."

Wu Pifu was stunned, "What do you mean? Not an illusion? Not a brain in a vat simulated by the Final Producer with his special Superbrain?"

Beelzebub said, "Theoretically, no, it should be said that from any situation, this should belong to a brain in a vat. But do you remember the information mentioned in the transaction between you and the source before we set off from the Myriad Worlds Arena?"

Wu Pifu thought for a while and said immediately, "'The place you wish to go is experiencing a closed loop in multiple senses, from fate, to cause and effect, to time and space... At the latest in one hour, even the wish of the Myriad Worlds Arena will not be able to enter that coordinate position again.' This is the information the source said."

Beelzebub affirmed, "Yes, it is this paragraph, which mentions a closed loop in multiple senses... If it is just a brain in a vat, just an illusion, virtual reality, then it is impossible to achieve a closed loop in multiple senses. Although I have lost almost all my power and memory, I also vaguely know that to achieve a closed loop, it takes at least the degree of a 0.3 Dream World source. And this closed loop usually refers to a closed loop at the spatial level. At a higher level, the time closed loop, the 0.3 Dream World source can only be achieved in their core fields, such as the wine pool that can never be finished, such as the Ouroboros time ring where one kills oneself and then oneself is born, etc."

"And a closed loop in multiple senses, also involving the level of fate and cause and effect... This can never be explained by illusion and falsehood!"

Wu Pifu asked in a deep voice, "So?"

Beelzebub didn't answer immediately. She said, "In order to be your partner, that is, your so-called external brain, before the rescue expedition, I specifically chatted with Wang Yihui, Gao Zhanggong, and others, and read many books and knowledge recorded by humans... Do you know what the singularity technology of the Seventh Singularity Company is?"

Wu Pifu frowned and thought.

He hadn't deliberately understood what the singularity technology of each singularity company of the thirteen singularity companies was. He just listened to people chatting along the way, or needed it for battle, and roughly understood some of the singularity companies' singularity technologies. For example, the first singularity company's singularity technology is gene ascension, the second singularity company's singularity technology is black hole field... And in these memories, there is no singularity technology of the seventh singularity company. "Quantum Suicide."

Beelzebub answered for Wu Pifu, "The singularity technology of the Seventh Singularity Company is called Quantum Suicide. Its specialized field involves concepts such as parallel universes, eternal immortality, and cumulative transcendence. From the information I have learned and collected, this company has never truly completed a quantum suicide experiment."

Wu Pifu asked in surprise, "So, this is not a singularity technology?"

"No, it is a singularity technology, and there is evidence that its experiment has been completed, but it is impossible to verify whether it has been completed." Beelzebub said.

Wu Pifu was full of questions, "xx is possible, but xx is absolutely impossible?"

Beelzebub said suspiciously, "You just said something, I didn't hear it clearly."

"No, nothing."

Wu Pifu stopped playing memes and asked, "I don't understand what you mean. What does it mean that the experiment has been completed, but it is impossible to verify whether it has been completed."

Beelzebub said, "The core theory of this technology is that the consciousness of life is immortal. Its scientific basis is information immortality in quantum theory, as well as the ultimate anthropic principle. This theory believes that as long as it is a conscious and knowing life, its consciousness and knowledge are eternally immortal. When it faces a 'death' encounter, it will produce choices and encounters that always make it survive in a situation that only it can know. For example, suicide, the bullet always jams. For example, jumping from a height of ten thousand meters, there will always be strong winds, or a tornado that just happens to make it survive. For example, the end of life, it just happens to encounter a breakthrough in life-span technology, or forcibly return its consciousness and soul to a certain time point in the past."

"In short, the quantum suicide theory believes that knowing life is an absolute existence for itself. In the eyes of outsiders, it died, but there will always be a parallel world that makes it survive, and its consciousness's self-sensing will absolutely not stop."

Beelzebub paused when she said this, and continued, "Although we all know that death is the ultimate source, and when a person dies, their consciousness and soul will enter the afterlife in a way we cannot understand, but as far as this singularity technology theory is concerned, the basis of quantum suicide exists. And what the Seventh Singularity Company wants to try is to obtain the ultimate result of quantum suicide through control, that is, immortality. From what I have learned, every experiment of its singularity technology, regardless of what the experimental carrier is, the result is a bunch of indescribable and indescribable rotten meat, spiritual bodies, memes, ghost curses, etc., but these things prove the completion of the experiment in turn, because according to one of the speculations of quantum theory, after life exists almost eternally, it will cause its essence to produce negative cumulative changes, thereby causing its material form and spiritual form to collapse at the same time, turning into this kind of incomprehensible product... Is it very familiar?"

!

Wu Pifu said in a deep voice, "Yes... my existence, right?"

Beelzebub said, "Yes, negative accumulation, your consciousness sea negative... And one of the experimental methods of quantum suicide is to let the consciousness and soul of a life leave the body, that is, its body dies, and then it enters the simulated past scene by itself, and then cuts off the simulation of its past scene to achieve quantum-level parallel universe penetration. Is it still very familiar?"

Wu Pifu looked at the pedestrians around him, and saw the 21st century that was familiar and strange in his memory. After a long time, he said, "So you think we are actually in a real one, just a parallel universe space-time fragment of a past scene?"

Beelzebub said, "It's just a possibility, but the wonderful part is yet to come. According to the experimental process of quantum suicide singularity technology, if the connection is completely cut off, they cannot control it, so in this process, they will control the experimental individual penetrating into the parallel universe past scene in the form of soul code. The process is to let the experimental individual constantly dissolve in the past time scene of the parallel universe until it completely fits its past self, and then some kind of singularity technology creation will extract it back to the original time and space. It's just that this last process has never been successful, because the moment it is extracted back, the experimental individual will produce terrifying distortion, the kind that cannot be reversed."

Wu Pifu was silent for a long time and said, "Indeed, according to your statement, we are indeed very like being in a parallel universe scene fragment of quantum suicide, so the third possibility you mentioned is that the Final Producer obtained the Seventh Singularity Company's singularity technology quantum suicide, and applied it to the weekend scene where Chu Minghao is, and then used quantum suicide to close the loop of everything in this scene?"

Beelzebub said, "Although it is incredible, and I don't know how the Final Producer did it, this is my third guess, which is that everything here is real, but this is just a parallel universe past scene fragment of quantum suicide."

Wu Pifu still asked with doubt, "But this third guess cannot explain why I am not affected by the correction."

"No, it can be explained!"

Beelzebub said immediately, "Because... no matter in any past scene, you don't exist at all!"

"Putting a knowing personality into a parallel universe scene fragment where it existed in the past, and then assimilating it, this is the possibility of the third guess, and it is also the Final Producer's method of swallowing you. But have you thought about it? You are not Wu Pifu!"

"You are the latest personality after countless iterations of Wu Pifu in the infinite Superbrain time and space. In other words..."

Beelzebub said seriously, "You are the one who doesn't exist in quantum suicide!"

"You are the bug of all this!"
