  Chapter 800 Chapter 799 · "Grandmother Paradox, Klein Bottle, Cosmic Program Theory (Part 2

  The content of the civilized bet is: [The performer Su Mingan must restart the Dawn system within 20 days. 】

  Then, as long as the "performer Su Mingan" never reaches the twentieth day, this civilizational bet can become empty talk.

  When Su Mingan arrives on the nineteenth day, he will meet Akto, and Akto will let him go back to the past and hand over his identity as a "performer" to himself on the first day.

Analyzing only from the causal level, when the "Su Mingan of the past" has gone through nineteen days and meets Akto again, Akto will let the "Su Mingan of the past" go back to the past and hand over the identity of the "performer" For the next self on the first day, that is, the "Su Ming'an of the past", to achieve infinite recursion.

  The time in the world of ruins is a grid-like time. As long as Su Mingan has existed in this world, he will leave traces in the system, regardless of the past, present, or future. Although only the current Su Mingan is the real "player Su Mingan", the past him also counts as "Su Mingan".

   This is to take advantage of the textual loophole of "Performer: Su Mingan". The text can only refer to one "object", and cannot refer to "Su Mingan" on a specific timeline.

  The current Su Mingan can boldly go to the future, while the past "Su Mingan" has "Back to the past Su Mingan" to help him reach the nineteenth day.

  —In this way, it becomes a causal ouroboros without a head and a tail.

The identity of "Performer Su Ming'an" will go back and forth between the past and the present, from the nineteenth day back to the first day, from the first day to the nineteenth day, and from the nineteenth day back to the first day . Day 20 is never reached.

   "..."

  Among the white brilliance, Su Mingan clenched the chocolate in his hand, his heart beat fast, and a ladder of thinking was built in his mind, gradually building a complete palace.

  He felt a little dazed, and a thick layer of cold sweat had already oozed from his back.

"Su Ming'an, the cause and effect of ouroboros are directly connected, it is impossible to have 'no cause and effect', or 'cause and no effect', because once you lose one of them, you can't stand here, we can The basis of the conversation here is that you have linked this cause and effect at a certain point in time, maybe in the past, maybe in the future.” Akto said: “That is, if there is a cause, there must be an effect, and if there is an effect, the cause and effect must be reversed. .”

   "I understand." Su Mingan's voice was hoarse, and the information had too much impact on him. He couldn't have figured it out without Acto explaining it.

   It's like the grandmother paradox - if you go back in time and kill Ni's grandmother. You couldn't have been born without your grandmother. But the question is, if you were not born, who killed your grandmother?

  The current situation is similar to that, Su Mingan is in a Schrödinger state of "killing the grandmother" and "not killing the grandmother". Only "his grandmother has not been killed" can he successfully reach the nineteenth day, and if "his grandmother has been killed", it is impossible for him to reach this nineteenth day, and it is impossible to hear these theories.

  When he is standing here, this karma already exists, and his "grandmother" must survive now, what he has to do is to go back to the past and prevent himself from "killing his grandmother".

He can't measure this three-dimensional battle in linear time, time is just a net here, you can jump a chess piece to a grid, you can also jump across a parallel line to another grid, and you can even fold the net in half. Four copies, one for 1 year, one for 32 years, one for 72 years, and one for 102 years.

  In other words, we need to put aside all the normal definitions of 'time', which won't work in the world of ruins.

  Time must be understood in terms of space.

Just like a Klein bottle - there is a hole at the bottom of a bottle, now the neck of the bottle is extended and pulled into the bottle to connect with the hole at the bottom, unlike the cups we usually use to drink water, this Klein bottle has no " edge", its surface has no end. A butterfly can fly directly from the inside of a bottle to the outside without crossing the surface, i.e. there is no inside or outside of a Klein bottle.

Now, Su Ming'an is like that butterfly, as long as he passes through the three-dimensional Klein bottle, he can return to the initial program, knock down the letter that Akto vacated in advance, and make the causal link become Ouroboros.

  In the field of mathematics, the Klein bottle is a non-directional plane, a concept that is completely indistinguishable from the inside and the outside. If the universe is compared to a higher-dimensional Klein bottle, the universe is also boundless.

Although human beings think that they are in the universe, they may also exist outside the universe. The boundary between "inside" and "outside" itself is not clear. No matter how humans explore, they may eventually return to a point of origin, just like That never-full Klein bottle.

The Möbius ring is very distorted from the two-dimensional space, but it is very reasonable in the three-dimensional space. In the same way, although the Klein bottle looks very strange in the three-dimensional space, it has No directionality.

  Because the reality is a three-dimensional space, it would seem abrupt to use the theory of the real world to explain the Klein bottle belonging to the four-dimensional space.

   But it's reasonable.

  The cause and effect of the world of ruins, the distinction between inside and outside, is like a Klein bottle.

   "... figured it out?"

  Under the pure white brilliance, Actor drank tea again. His posture is particularly leisurely, like a mentor waiting for his students to understand.

The fragrance of tea filled the air, and Su Mingan stared blankly at the pattern of ouroboros swimming in the air. After a while, he said, "I still don't understand, sorry. But after the world dungeon is over, I will continue to discuss it with Nuoer and others. "

  Actor’s theories have gone far beyond the scope of the world of ruins, and even touched the level of cosmology. Su Mingan recorded all these words, and they can have a cryptic discussion with Nuoer and the others during the Chinese New Year.

  Maybe, there will really be a new idea to compete with the organizer.

  Su Mingan's eyes dimmed a little, and the tower of thinking was almost submerged by the flood.

The previous simulation is superimposed on this simulation, and the end of this simulation may also be the beginning of the next simulation. Time is like a Klein bottle in high-dimensional terms, and time in high-dimensional eyes is more "dimension". Expressed with 'cause and effect' rather than purely 'linear time'.

  This kind of thinking may help him fight against Gaowei.

  Su Mingan put his hands on his chest, feeling his heart beating, a new window had opened before his eyes, and unprecedented theories poured into his mind.

On the first day when the dungeon was opened, he would never have imagined that the nature of the ruined world was so complicated—four timelines were not enough, and a three-dimensional firewall theory was needed, and the firewall theory was not enough, and a bunch of titles were needed Snakes, Möbius loops, Klein bottles, the grandmother paradox, and even cosmic programming says.

  This is much broader than the battle between the two gods in the vault. Clues within clues, theory within theory, it is simply a huge mystery composed of a whole world.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand it, just do as I say." Actor put down his teacup: "After all, you are still young, and you have not even had in-depth contact with mathematics and physics. Many theories are difficult for you to understand. I believe that if you can Enough life, with your will, you can do better than me."

   "How can I compare to you." Su Mingan shook his head.

  It is difficult for him to even understand these theories, how can he compare with the founder of the theory.

   "So specifically, what should I do?" Su Mingan said.

  Aktor stood up.

  Flower-like white brilliance surrounded him, and he walked in this pure white space:

"Su Ming'an, the central city laboratory in cataclysm 72—that is, where you started the game, it is a 'transfer station' used to store the real Dawn system. The central city laboratory does not belong to any dimension, it does not belong to the three-dimensional Neither does it belong to the 32nd year of the two-dimensional, nor does it belong to the 102nd year of the measurement city, it is independent."

   "I see." Su Mingan understood. It seems that the real Dawn system is protected in this 'transfer station'.

"The time of the Central City Laboratory has been repeated within five days because we need to keep resetting the coordinates of this 'transit station'." Actor said: "Otherwise, if the time of the Central City Laboratory continues, It is easy to be locked in coordinates by [his dimension] like the other three dimensions."

  Su Mingan nodded.

   No wonder the people in the central city laboratory were not invaded by [Tawei]. It turns out that it is absolutely safe there.

   "But the only hidden danger is you." Actor said:

"At the beginning of the dungeon, you are a person who frequently enters and exits the city of measurement and the central city laboratory. [Tawei] is likely to target your coordinates and lock the location of the central city laboratory within five days. Even if it is only once before and after Cause and effect are broken, and we will all cease to exist."

"What I need you to do is to lure the 'past you' into the ruined building in Measurement City, which is the 'future state' of the Central City Laboratory - let the past you be in 102 years, let the present you Located in the year 72. Make the coordinates of the central city laboratory coincide in the 72nd year and the 102nd year at the same time, use the one-dimensional coordinates to confuse [his] vision, and avoid the laboratory being locked.”

  Su Mingan heard that his back was already wet with cold sweat.

   This kind of "the past belongs to 102 years, and the present belongs to 72 years. The past belongs to the future, and the future belongs to the past." The operation is too shocking and unheard of.

   "I see." He said:

  "The past has not yet become an established fact, and I must erase the hidden dangers of the past."

   "Ding Dong!"

  The system prompt sounds:

  【You have accepted the new main mission "Ouroboros"】

  【Mission reminder: Jump grid-like time, guide the 'past you' into the ruined building, and deliver the identity of the 'performer' of the civilized bet to the 'past you'.

  Mission Reward: A Dawn Password. 】

  …

   "Did you find Tretia's pocket watch?" Actor said.

  Su Mingan took out the bronze pocket watch.

  Actor stared at his pocket watch, as if missing that beautiful woman. A stream of data snaked down from his fingertips and entered the pocket watch.

"Each of the nine seats has some administrator authority. Xiaobei's is a USB flash drive. Xi is the chip on the back of her neck. As for Theretia, her authority representative is this pocket watch." Ake Thor whispered: "Give this pocket watch to you in the past. I stored the source of civilization in it. As long as you give him the pocket watch, the source of civilization changes hands, and you can give him the identity of the performer. "

  Su Mingan gripped the pocket watch tightly: "Why do I have to give him the pocket watch? What if I want to give him Xiaobei's USB flash drive?"

Akto was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Of course. You can give him Xiaobei's USB flash drive if you want. You still don't seem to understand what ouroboros karma means. You were able to pick up the pocket watch because of the last one. 'Karma' gave you a pocket watch. If you gave the 'past you' Xiao Bei's USB flash drive, then the next thing you have in your hand will not have a pocket watch, but Xiao Bei's USB flash drive."

  Su Mingan exhaled, his heart was already filled with shock: "Understood, send me there."

  Actor stretched out his hand: "After completing the task, you go to the Central City Laboratory, and I can send you back."

  White brilliance flickered between them, and before Su Mingan's eyes, long horizontal and vertical lines flashed, and they interlaced and condensed into a parallel grid.

  The entire space was upside down in front of his eyes, as if a surfaceless Klein bottle rose under his feet, he was pushed forward by the white turbulence, and gradually submerged in the endless gap—

   At this moment, he became the "grandmother" herself.

  …

  【In order to avoid confusion of cause and effect, "Su Mingan" with the same essence must not come into contact with the same timeline, and you are temporarily given another identity...】

  【The simulation was successful, and it was detected that the Liming system contained the "Lu Shu" emotional module, and temporarily attached the "Lu Shu" identity to you. 】

  【You will be equipped with an AI Xico bionic body to assist you in your actions. 】

  …

  Amidst the white brilliance, Su Mingan opened his eyes.

   There is a vast desert in front of you.

   "Hula—"

  The sea of ​​sand is vast and far away, the hills and mountains are distinct, and the quicksand is like rushing down. The scorching warm wind slapped his face. The oasis is accompanied by the yellow sand, and the birds dance with the camel bells.

  Countless folds of sand and gravel are like golden waves, spreading from afar, as if never ending.

  Vendors shouting loudly, travelers carrying big bags... People gathered in the medium-sized gathering place in front of them, rubbing shoulders and gathering crowds.

   "—Emotional needle! 5 Cole per injection, you don't have to worry about emotional overload! Travelers, the city of measurement is ahead! Keep an emotional needle!"

   "—hotel, lodging! 3 kelp days!"

  Su Mingan stared blankly at the scene in front of him, as if a dislocation of time and space was handing over in front of his eyes, and every glance felt incomparably miraculous. A heavy sense of weightlessness steamed up in his chest, which intensified every minute.

  Time, space, dimension, universe.

   Ouroboros, Möbius Ring, Klein Bottle, Firewall Theory, Grandmother Paradox…

   "The world of ruins." He whispered the name of the world, as if a monstrous flood surged in his heart, and he was shattered by the shock.

  He was about to take a step, but staggered and almost lost his footing. At this moment, a blond-haired and blue-eyed bionic appeared beside him. She held his shoulders and put a black robe on him.

   "During this period, please remember not to expose your face to prevent the Klein bottle from breaking." She held his hand, her beautiful eyes reflecting his dazed expression.

  Helping him straighten his hair under the black robe, Xi Ke smiled softly at him:

"let's go."

"PhD."
