Chapter 955: Chapter 47 Finding Home

On the bed in a corner of the bedroom.

Lin Xian opened his eyes.

The second entry into The Sixth Dreamland had yielded significant results, but what comforted Lin Xian the most was…

That Turing was not as powerful as he had imagined.

Compared to Artificial Intelligence, digital life forms possessed natural weaknesses and disadvantages—there was a huge disparity in power, and it was fair to say they were worlds apart.

Digital life Turing was really just an internet replication of Kevin Walker; it was indeed much stronger than Kevin Walker, but at the end of the day, it was still human, powerful but within limits.

...

The most fatal point was…

It did not dare to clone or split itself, and could only work and think in a single thread.

Just like normal humans, could anyone accept their own clone?

Surely not.

Everyone would worry about the clone betraying them, attacking them, replacing them. There’s a movie “The Island” that tells such a story, where the clones ultimately killed their originals, took over everything from them, and replaced their lives.

This dilemma and concern meant that digital life Turing did not dare to let its consciousness diverge even a little bit, and naturally, it could not monitor the whole world and eavesdrop on everything at the same time.

This indeed offered some peace of mind.

But…

It was not enough to feel completely at ease.

Lin Xian had once thought about the mysterious old man in The Fourth Dreamland, suspected to be Copernicus, who was aware of his ability to dream of The Future World, even the specific locations… How could such an exaggerated thing be possible?

He didn’t even know his own birthplace, so how did Copernicus find out?

Lin Xian felt that it probably had something to do with Turing’s surveillance of him.

As Porcupine Turing had said.

Although Turing could not monitor and listen to the whole world simultaneously, it could indeed manage targeted surveillance of an individual or a few individuals.

If Turing chose to monitor him 24 hours a day.

Wouldn’t the fact that he consistently woke up at 00:42 every day be exposed?

Wouldn’t the secrets of the dreamscapes eventually become known?

Lin Xian couldn’t fathom how Copernicus came to know the secrets of his dreams.

Could it be…

According to the established history of The Fourth Dreamland, he was indeed meant to be taken to the Space-time Courthouse for trial, and then through various cruel or high-tech means, he ultimately would confess everything.

So, Copernicus learned the secrets of his dreamscapes and thus began to surround him on August 28, 2624, completing the Pincer Strategy cycle?

“Logically speaking, it all makes sense, but there always has to be an initial cause for everything.”

Lin Xian blinked, staring at the ceiling penetrated by moonlight, and thought to himself:

“Today, June 1, 2024, I have no reason to expose the secrets of the dreamscapes, and the enemy should not be aware. But… what about in the future? As I become more active, my industries grow larger, and my moves in various technological fields become more high-profile… like a tall poppy, certain to attract enemies.”

“Right now, my Rhein Company is just an extremely ordinary small-scale company. Not to mention on a global scale, even within the country, even in the East Sea, it’s just a small-scale company worth a few billion, with Rhein Cat licensing still being the primary source of income, all other fields are losing money.”

“At this stage, I am not exposed enough to be noticeable. But… what about after the Miniature Nuclear Battery comes onto the market? What about when the Time Shuttle Machine project starts to operate? When my existence poses a threat to Turing, to Copernicus, to members of the Genius Club, perhaps that will be the moment when my identity and secrets are truly exposed.”

Lin Xian closed his eyes again.

He was not clear about where the 2024 Turing was at this moment…

Inside his bedside alarm clock?

In his cellphone?

Was it constantly listening to him?

Once this chain of suspicion formed, it would inevitably become endless, and such paranoia would eventually crush a person.

But Lin Xian had reason to believe.

His future exposure was definitely related to digital life Turing!

This pervasive ghost had indeed become too arrogant, now that his powerful ally VV had disappeared.

So, for his own safety, and to prevent humanity from descending into civil war again, becoming mere tools in a war by proxy…

[Turing must die].

As long as Turing was killed in 2024.

He, and many others, would be free from the surveillance of this ghost;

Would no longer have to worry about it becoming unfair and selfish instead of impartial;

At the same time, it would prevent humans of The Future World from becoming Turing’s puppets in war, constantly embroiled in conflict.

Three birds with one stone.

It would also be a benevolent act that served both his own interests and those of the people.

Only…

At the moment, the “safety lock password” to kill Turing did not look secure.

Turing’s cunning was beyond imagination.

He currently had one version with 13 lines of code, and another with 7.

But there was reason to believe that neither version was the original, and both likely contained hidden traps.

“Better to compress it a bit more.”

Lin Xian had already thought of a plan.

Next time he entered the dream, he would take the 7-line version to threaten Grizzly Turing. Perhaps he would get a 5-line version;

Then he would take the 5-line version to find Porcupine Turing, and maybe get a 4-line version;

Finally, with the 4-line version, he would go to Red Bull Turing…

“I want to see how many lines you can ultimately compress it to!”

Lin Xian hummed softly.

For now, it seemed that the first three lines were definitely solid, it just remained to be seen what the rest of the content was all about.
