Chapter 226 Euthanasia Program
Bai Hongtu finally understood why Jiang Li had such a reaction when he saw the Feitian Group.
Feitian Group spent fifty years to bring the entire Outline civilization into the virtual world.
And this was a thousand years ago.
"The so-called longevity and long sleep nutrient solution can only make people live to two hundred years old. No wonder there are no living people in this world." Only then did Bai Hongtu figure out why there is no living person in Outline Civilization.
This also proves that Du Ming is indeed dead.
"I remember Du Ming said that the Feitian Group spent a hundred years collecting data to create a virtual personality. The virtual personality has the same reaction as a human being."
"You mean Du Ming is also a virtual personality?"
"Yes, I suspect that during Du Ming's use of the holographic simulator, Feitian Company collected all of Du Ming's information, such as memory, physical strength, inner desires, etc., organized these into data, and after verification, they can create a virtual personality that is indistinguishable from Du Ming!"
When a person has the same memory, body, and mind as you, is this person you?
In Jiang Li's previous life, this was a philosophical question, which would cause countless arguments and no conclusion could be reached.
Where in Kyushu, this is a non-controversial issue, your soul has been reincarnated, this person is not you.
The soul is the standard that distinguishes people from each other.
The two of them have already confirmed that Outline Civilization has neither living people nor souls, and the server is loaded with data.
"Let's go to Feitian Group headquarters."
The two agreed that the Feitian Group had a big problem.
Feitian Group also has no living people.
When they came to the president's office at the headquarters of Feitian Group, they found a secret plan called "euthanasia" plan.
The plan is divided into four steps.
The first step is to use the divine inspiration to develop technology.
The second step is to use the power of capital and technology to control the government.
The third step is to publicize that the virtual world is equivalent to the real world, give them reasons to escape from reality, and voluntarily go to the virtual world.
The fourth step is to develop the longevity and long sleep nutrient solution of the holographic simulator, allowing all human beings to enter the virtual world.
The plan is very simple, but in the eyes of Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu, it makes people shudder.
This is a conspiracy without any cover-up.
200-year lifespan is just a short time for the two of them, but for mortals, this is a heaven-defying feat to break through Tianshou.
Who doesn't want to live a long life?
There is also a virtual world that is no different from the real world.
On one side is the cruel reality of studying at an early age, working hard in the middle-aged and young, and enjoying a moment of tranquility in old age, and is also subject to material constraints.
The other side is omnipotent, a virtual world equivalent to a god, free to the extreme.
Who doesn't want to be free?
Longevity and freedom are the two things that living beings desire most. Who can refuse?
The only reason Jiang Li can think of for rejection is that the real world is real and the virtual world is fake.
Can it be true or false?
"Here, this is the holographic simulator, let's go meet Du Ming."
Bai Hongtu nodded and put on the holographic simulator, and the two came to the big world together.
Du Ming regarded Jiang Li as a friend, and gave Jiang Li a communication method, so Jiang Li could find him at will.
"Brother Jiang came back so soon, um, there are newcomers?" Du Ming noticed Bai Hongtu.
"This is Bai Hongtu. It just so happened that I didn't get things done, so I came back." Jiang Li said with a smile, "I happened to see your nameplate, and then I realized that Brother Du, you are an ancient person thousands of years ago. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Thousands of years?" Du Ming frowned, and then he was relieved, "The flow of time in the small world can be adjusted, but the big world doesn't display the time. I didn't even notice that it's been so long in the outside world."
"No, the outside world has changed a lot now. We also discovered a continent with more advanced technology than ours. Outlines that humans are not the only intelligent existence in the universe."
"And there are worlds beyond the world. We also discovered the world of cultivating immortals. People in the world of cultivating immortals can turn mountains and seas with their bodies. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it."
"Brother Du, do you want to go out and have a look?" Jiang Li looked at Du Ming eagerly.
Du Ming shook his head regretfully: "If I just came in, I'd like to go out and have a look, but unfortunately I can't go out now."
"How come?" Jiang Li asked knowingly.
"Brother Jiang...Although I am an ancient person, there is no generation in the virtual world, let's call you a brother. Brother Jiang should know that the nutrient solution can only make me live two hundred years old. Since the outside world has passed a thousand years, I have died of old age. Now I am electronic consciousness and cannot leave the virtual world."
"Dead?" Jiang Li was surprised. He was really surprised that Du Ming knew that he was dead.
"I can't remember how long ago, one day I suddenly lost consciousness and disconnected, but soon regained consciousness, and I was able to go to the big and small worlds freely. I thought it was a problem with the server. Now that I think about it, I was already dead at that time."
"But it's not really dead. You see, I'm still conscious. I can be considered alive, but I'm living in the virtual world."
Du Ming didn't care about his own death.
Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu exchanged glances, this avatar thought he was the real Du Ming.
"Brother Du, you accepted death so calmly, I admire you."
This time it was Du Ming's turn to be puzzled: "Didn't Feitian Company tell you before using the virtual machine?"
"Said what?"
Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu don't know what Feitian Company said. Now Feitian Company's building is occupied by a group of wild dogs.
"The Feitian company said that soaking in the nutrient solution will certainly make you live longer, but it will also gradually strip away your consciousness. After a long time, you will not be able to return to reality. At the same time, you will lose your reproductive function from the genetic level."
"Everyone who enters a virtual world will agree to this price."
Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu were silent.
They cannot tell who is at fault.
Is Feitian Company wrong? People have clearly told people the consequences.
Is the user wrong? The reality is unsatisfactory, and people are not allowed to go to the virtual world?
They can't even judge whether this matter is right or wrong.
Du Ming thought that Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu were depressed because they couldn't have children, so he said in relief, "It's just that they can't have children in reality, so it's not a big problem."
"For example, I only have one wife and one son in reality, but in my world, there are many wives and concubines, and a house full of children and grandchildren."
"Then where is sister-in-law now?"
Du Ming waved his hand: "The marriage was forced by life back then. The two of us made do with each other and had no feelings. As for the son, if he is not filial, he will be useless."
"It's not like my world. The wives are all the most beautiful women in the world. They all really like me. The younger generations are capable and filial to me. I have long since lost the contact information of my wife and son."
Jiang sighed inwardly. Everyone voluntarily went to die and felt very happy. It really was the "euthanasia" plan, and the name was not wrong at all.
