Chapter 700: Chapter 697: A Way to Ascend to Heaven in One Step
Yamamoto nodded solemnly.
They could understand because of the limited thinking patterns, there ca a certain uniformity. This so-called uniformity had its advantages and disadvantages, and it was indeed a matter of perspective.
Zhang Yuan raised his second finger, “The second potential flaw in the Half-sphere Civilization might be whether the so-called ‘mory templates’ can adapt to a rapidly advancing era. I have observed that the mory templates of the Half-sphere Civilization do not change—they were 366 sages at the beginning and are still 366 sages today. There seed to be no modifications during that period.”
“That is, they have taken these mory templates as a form of belief. They want to resurrect the sages, so naturally, they cannot modify them. Would it still count as a resurrection if the templates were modified?”
“But what if these mory templates can’t adapt to the increasingly developed technology? The entire civilization would naturally fall into so difficulties…”
“That makes sense.”
After so thought, all the inspectors understood.
It’s hard to find perfection in the world, whether in thoughts or items, as all are limited by their era. A brand-new model of a smartphone, at the ti of manufacture, is trendy, but gradually, it becos outdated. The sa goes for science; there are always new theories replacing the old ones.
Is there really any model that can fully adapt to a new era?
It’s very difficult; things that do not change will eventually be phased out by ti.
If the mory templates of the Half-sphere Civilization cannot adapt to the era, they will, in turn, create obstacles.
“And the third…”
Zhang Yuan lowered his voice, even though the conversation was through headsets, “Those mory templates, they’re supposed to be true saints, the flawless kind. If any flaw appears, the entire civilization layer would adopt the sa flaws…”
“For example, the action of ‘applause’ might be a favorite action of a certain saint, making all Half-sphere people like to clap. Of course, clapping is trivial and won’t affect the entire civilization, but what if it’s a serious flaw that affects the developnt of civilization?”
Seeing that everyone wasn’t quite clear, Zhang Yuan thought and said, “Let give you a simple example: deep inside, I inherently dislike studying chemistry. I feel that the fundantal theories of chemistry are only approximate and not accurate or solid, so I don’t like chemistry. I have a preference for mathematics and physics instead. If my worldview and values were used as a template, many people in the entire civilization would inherently dislike chemistry.”
“But is chemistry important? Chemistry is very important!”
“My wife is Lin Xuanyuan; would all descendants then adopt the aesthetic standards of Lin Xuanyuan’s appearance?”
“Yamamoto, you like those… lolita-bodied, big-breasted, fair-skinned won. If your mories and values were used as a template, most people would uncontrollably favor lolitas.”
“Do you understand now, how should this problem be solved? An individual’s flaws are nurous, and personal preferences are plentiful. Where can one find genuinely perfect beings? Does the Half-sphere Civilization really have 366 saints?”
Yamamoto, blushing, thought for a long while before saying, “Yeah, it’s impossible for such saints to exist.”
Zhang Yuan continued, “If a civilization’s species has obvious preferences, then this civilization is likely to face problems. Have you observed in this direction?”
This was too important; a shock went through the inspectors’ minds as they had never thought about this.
Zhang Yuan coughed and said, “Based on my current observations, the Half-sphere people have not developed a very centralized monotony. In the arts, their music style leans towards heavy tal, but there are also many other different branches. Their artistic works also have a degree of diversity; just in painting alone, there are several different thods. This indicates that their thoughts are not all focused solely on the 366 modules…”
“The sa mory template aesthetics are not strictly identical; how is this achieved?”
“That is, these Saint mory Templates must maintain a balance, the true middle way.”
Yamamoto’s face kept changing. He suddenly said, “Old Zhang, the ancestors of the Half-sphere Civilization who initially set up the entire plan must have thought of this too… As long as they thought of it, maybe they could avoid these problems.”
“Yes, which is why I seriously suspect…” Zhang Yuan deliberately left a cliffhanger, then mouthed a phrase.
“Fake!”
Yamamoto Ichiro, seeing the shape of Zhang Yuan’s lips inside the glass helt, was utterly confused.
Fake, what’s fake?
Are those mory templates fake?
What does that an?
They’re clearly useable, how could they be fake?
Suddenly, Yamamoto had an epiphany.
“That’s it!”
He couldn’t help but admire; Old Zhang was indeed much smarter.
The so-called Saint mory Templates might not actually be provided by real saints—there is no such person in the world who is unbiased, without any preferences, only possessing a mature worldview, following the middle way.
They don’t exist, absolutely don’t!
Instead… they are carefully modified, designed!
In reality, where is there a genuinely perfect sage? Genetic influences are ubiquitous, and every individual has his unique preferences and personal desires; no one can escape these inherent constraints. Using this directly as a template for the civilization would have serious consequences.
Only through careful “design” can an ideal perfect character be modified!
This perfect mory template has no preferences, no personal desires, truly unbiased!
Thus, Zhang Yuan had reason to suspect that the “saint” who provided the template might actually not exist, derived from modifying a person’s mories who was close to being a saint. In this way, the later generations inheriting the template could sowhat possess their own freedom.
Otherwise, if everything was too strictly defined, and thoughts too unified, it wouldn’t be conducive to the developnt of the entire civilization.
Although the Half-sphere Civilization still faced so problems, they were still controllable for now.
Discussing this far, the fog covering the Half-sphere Civilization had mostly cleared.
He smiled and said, “I’m very curious if the Half-sphere Civilization actually knows this. I think their top leaders might know, yet they still continue this way. But if this actually non-existent saint in history is indeed resurrected, what exactly will happen… I’m really curious!”
“Really curious… A person who originally didn’t exist is actually resurrected in the future.”
“If this saint really acts as I anticipate, then the so-called Level 5 Civilization puzzle will truly be completed! A great feat, a leap to heaven-like creation, a Level 5 Civilization will appear in the world!”
“Anticipated actions?”
Yamamoto’s brain started raising questions again, “What are your expectations, how to achieve a leap to heaven? If this saint is really resurrected, does it directly result in a leap to heaven? That’s impossible!!”
Zhang Yuan smiled and said, “Think about it carefully… The ancestors who initially designed this must have had their reasons. I really admire those forr heroes.”
