Chapter 333 Manual Optimization

Before taking real action, Lu Yang decided to hold a small meeting between the saviors first.

After returning to the Dawn Spirit Projection Space, the strange smell in the air of the temporary headquarters of [Seven Stars Saints] finally disappeared.

Lu Yang seemed to have come back to life, took a few breaths before looking at Xiao Huang who seemed to have something to say just now: "When I saw the double mirror paradox just now, what do you seem to want to say to me?"

Xiao Huang nodded and then said the topic just now: "This double mirror paradox is very interesting. It seems to be a manifestation of small-scale bugs in some processes in this world. This also shows that some underlying physical rules in this world have not even achieved the most basic self-consistent."

Lu Yang didn't think there was anything wrong with this: "This world is a virtual world made up by random things. If there is something wrong with the physical rules, isn't that normal?"

However, Xiao Huang bit his finger and denied: "There are problems with physical rules, and it is different from the physical rules. It is normal for the physical rules of the spiritual projection space to be different from the reality, but most virtual reality spaces will try to avoid contradictory situations between these fictional physical rules."

Lu Yang recalled the physical laws of the Eternal Kingdom that he had learned before, and still felt a little confused: "Some fictional physical rules, the contradiction between each other is inevitable. For example, you have to deny the concept of infinite and the concept of relative space-time view. In this case, there will be contradictions regardless of whether the speed of light is infinite or not: if the speed of light is infinite, there is no way to deny the concept of infinite; if the speed of light is limited, the absolute view of space-time cannot be established."

"That's right." Xiao Huang first affirmed Lu Yang's statement, and then continued to add: "But in specific details, the virtual reality space can be fine-tuned to cover it up. Take the double mirror paradox for example. This virtual reality space can set a reflection limit, such as the reflection of an image up to 10,000 times, and then it will not continue to reflect. It can also set a mirror resolution limit, such as if the imaging of the mirror reflection is smaller than the micron level, it will not be displayed."

"These two settings also seem to be a bit problematic..."

"That's right. But even if these settings are not scientific, as long as normal people can't tell them, the sense of incongruity will be very low, and the realistic effect will be achieved. Especially when you are an indigenous NPC in this world, you will have a feeling of being confused by the authorities and will not feel that there is anything wrong with these settings."

Lu Yang thought Xiao Huang’s words were very reasonable.

This is just like the red and green blindness on the earth.

If no normal person in the world is used as a comparison, red and green blind may never feel that he has a problem in his life; by the same token, many animals are excellent four-color viewers, including birds, fish, amphibians, reptiles and insects. They can distinguish colors that humans cannot distinguish at all, and can even see ultraviolet rays, but humans may never understand these colors that they have never seen before.

Sometimes, some unwise concealment can make the NPC in this world feel confused.

Not to mention the concealment methods mentioned by Xiao Huang, even if the saviors are outsiders these days, it is difficult for them to see through the flaws without using local professional instruments.

However, the double mirror paradox shows that the way in which this virtual world handles bugs can be said to be very simple and crude. It would rather let some of the processes in this world crash directly without doing some easy-to-use concealment work.

Thinking of this, Lu Yang put forward his own guess: "Will some processes crash directly, save computing power more than finding ways to hide it? After all, in order to save computing power, this world has reached a level of madness."

Xiao Huang shook his head: "Some threads in the virtual world crashed directly and then restarted again. The local computing power consumed in a short period of time is very large. Instead, it is done with some simple concealment, but the computing power consumed is not much."

Xuefeng and Lu Yang looked at each other, and it was obvious that they were both puzzled. Finally, Xuefeng asked: "Then do you think this world is set to be like this strange?"

Hearing Xue Feng’s question, Xiao Huang replied with a serious expression: “I thought about this question just now. Although it was a bit unbelievable, I still suspect that this world has been manually optimized! And the person who performs artificial secondary optimization of this virtual world is probably the mysterious network administrator we are looking for!”

“Artificial secondary optimization?”

Seeing that neither of them had heard this term before, Xiao Huang explained: "In order to save computing power, this virtual world must have optimized the physical system. But if it is the optimization of physical rules performed by artificial intelligence such as Chenxi, it will obviously not leave a low-level problem like the double mirror paradox. Therefore, I judged that the physical system of this world has been optimized manually through secondary methods. Only in this way can we explain why there are such low-level vulnerabilities in this world."

Lu Yang felt that this reasoning still seemed to have problems: "But you and I are all humans. Since we can all see that there is a problem with the double mirror paradox, we can all come up with solutions. There is no reason why this network administrator can't think of it!"

"Not this! The physical system in the virtual world can be said to be a move that affects the whole body. Without the assistance of artificial intelligence, changing any subtle physical settings may produce a severe butterfly effect, which will eventually lead to the collapse of the physical system in the entire virtual world. The double mirror paradox is easy to solve for artificial intelligence, but if ordinary humans are allowed to handle it manually, it is very likely that the effect of pressing the gourd and causing a scoop, and even more other derivative paradoxes may be generated."

When talking about the butterfly effect, Lu Yang couldn't help but remember the "big tear" that almost destroyed the entire world, which was recorded by both the Wizard and the Science Inquisition.

I don’t know if this super world-destroying bug, which is suspected to be unprecedented in the Eternal Kingdom, is it caused by computing power overload, or is it caused by physical system crash, or both?

Anyway, what the Science Inquisition said, "Witches use witchcraft to cause a big tear" must be nonsense.

The wizards in this world are at best ordinary people who know a little trick. Lucas can exchange positions of two people and is already considered a legendary wizard. Ordinary wizards cannot even beat the scientific knight with a "pistol".

Think about it, they even had to use explosives to destroy the Wall of Eternity. The gap is a bit too big.

Following Xiao Huang's words, Lu Yang continued to analyze: "This person who optimizes this virtual world twice is likely to be the network administrator we are looking for. Now it seems that it is neither an ordinary human nor a normal artificial intelligence, and it is really possible that it is the same existence as you, Xiao Huang."
