"Predict the future?!" Whether it was Betty or the Goddess of Magic, they were both instantly interested. Gods who could predict the future were few and far between. They hadn’t expected Ren would also master such an authority!
At the sa ti, they were really curious about how exactly Ren was gonna do this to predict the future... and why it would be related to all that data!
Mind-boggling!
"Yep, predicting the future." Ren nodded slightly. "Actually, the essence of collecting data is for prediction. By collecting and analyzing massive amounts of data, then making predictions, and then to achieve a certain predicted result, making targeted, related, regular developnts. In other words, as long as my Magic Net grasps more and more data, I’ll be able to calculate individual and collective developnt paths. When this ability reaches a certain level, it’ll condense into an authority. The authority will strengthen the ability again, and ultimately complete the prediction of the future."
In his past life, many computer science experts discovered that when big data developed to a certain stage, it could predict the future. Many internet companies pushed information to users, especially ads, and so apps like food delivery and ride-hailing software had actually already started showing a tiny bit of this potential. Of course, just a tiny bit—they were still a long way from real success.
In Engineering Cybernetics, including its predecessor Machine Cybernetics, there was even a viewpoint that through massive data analysis, you could direct a country’s operation, ensuring that production of every industrial and agricultural product perfectly matched demand, with the entire society running like precision machinery... Without a doubt, being able to achieve that state was, in a sense, also a kind of prediction.
Based on this viewpoint, Ren had been strengthening his related abilities all along. With the appearance of the [Database] function, finally, he’d completely grasped this direction. In the depths of his being, he could already feel this part of the authority spreading toward him.
Now, he could confirm he’d definitely possess this authority.
Thinking he’d explained things pretty clearly, Ren found that Betty looked totally lost.
The Goddess of Magic in the distance also looked pretty confused.
They couldn’t really understand what exactly Ren was talking about...
"Forget it. Just know that you’ll be able to predict the future later." Betty thought about it for a while but still couldn’t figure it out, so she shook her head. "But with Roster suddenly making these reforms, won’t it affect production of Truth?"
Truth was the na they’d recently co up with for the magic power railgun and magic power cannon. The magic power railgun that could fire magic bombs with explosive capability was called Truth. The magic power cannon that could fire high-level magic or even legendary magic but would lt from high temperatures after a few uses was called Big Truth.
Truth was suitable for regular battlefields. Big Truth was for attacking super fortress cities with magical defense shields.
After sensing that the God of War would definitely make a coback, Ren imdiately handed over the production thods for both cannons to Viscount Roster.
Through the TV, they’d even seen Viscount Roster combine the magic power railgun with a tractor, rging them into a chanical device that looked kinda like a tank. Unfortunately, production was extrely difficult, so there were very few of them right now.
"Short-term preparation leads to long-term gains. Even if there’s so impact, once they finish the reforms, efficiency will be even higher." Ren thought about it. He didn’t know the specific situation either, so he just shook his head. "But just these reforms aren’t enough. I wonder when Roster’s gonna realize he needs to teach these workers to read. Actually, teach everyone in the entire territory to read."
"Why don’t you just give him a revelation directly?" Betty looked at Ren with so surprise.
When gods wanted believers to do sothing, didn’t they just tell them directly?
How co with Ren it beca waiting for them to realize it themselves?
That didn’t seem right!
"..." Ren had no response. "Let finish building the tech lab first!"
He seed to be affected very little by divinity. His humanity kept occupying the main position, and he hadn’t developed that high-and-mighty feeling. He always wanted humans, wanted his believers, to beco strong through their individual wisdom, then overlooked part of his divinity. For a lot of things, all he needed to do was wave his hand and say sothing.
He even suspected that the reason he had this way of thinking was completely because humanity and divinity were competing with each other, making his thinking less clear...
"Tech lab?" Betty looked a bit confused.
"A place similar to a virtual divine realm. I’ve replicated almost all the basic rules of this world there and plan to turn it into a laboratory. Then I can let so believers within the Magic Power Network’s coverage area enter this lab to conduct experints."
Ren started explaining. "If they conduct experints in the mortal realm, they often need to collect tons of materials before they can proceed. Every failure ans huge losses, and throughout the whole experintal process they have to be careful about lots of things—worried about getting hurt, worried that huge losses an no funding to continue, or that so materials are hard to collect, stuff like that. But in a virtual lab, they don’t need to worry about any of that. They just need to keep experinting non-stop."
"Once they’ve recorded all the experintal data and results, they return to the mortal realm and replicate it, completing the experint. It’s basically speeding up the magic-tech industry."
Neither Ren nor Betty could be thorough about everything. To transform this world, they needed more mortal power. Many of Roster territory’s industrial products appeared this way. From this angle, you could see just how important this virtual tech lab was.
As for why not just cover everyone and turn it into a virtual world... The reason was simple. At this stage, operations like that still needed to rely on his divine power and authority to maintain. Sothing seed to be missing, so key technology.
Ren figured the most critical point was the computing power supply problem!
If he could use the Fallen Ones’ technology and have everyone using the lab also contribute so brain computing power, that might solve the problem. But this was an extrely complex issue, not sothing that could be solved quickly. Plus, the current Magic Power Network still wasn’t enough—there was no way to let more people use it. So he had to settle for second best and temporarily use divine power to manage it!
This could also be considered a divine gift to Viscount Roster, the Wild Mage, and a few others!
After all, their contributions to pushing forward the magic-tech industry and the technology faith were truly quite outstanding. Plus, the tech lab could have plenty of other uses!
