"Awesome!" The wormhole theory had been developed hundreds of years ago, and had also been studied for hundreds of years, but there had been no progress at all. He hadn't thought that Zhao Tie-zhu would actually come up with a mini wormhole technology. Although it was expensive and was a one-time use technology, it was still a breakthrough.
"Then what about Wang Xiaosi?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Wang Xiaosi is a high-level artificial intelligence. He is the same as the one on your watch, not some primordial spirit. The so-called primordial spirit is just a lie." Zhao Tianzhu said.
"Do you know the advanced artificial intelligence in my watch?" Xu Taiping asked in surprise.
"Of course, the advanced artificial intelligence in your watch is not as good as Wang Xiaosi's. Therefore, when you entered the Dragon Lake Mystic Realm, your AI was detected by Wang Xiaoshan, and advanced artificial intelligence is the future development trend. You can be sure that in the future, artificial intelligence will replace a part of the social functions of humans." Zhao Tianzhu said.
"Awesome!" Xu Taiping sighed again.
"Think about it, are there any connections between mini wormhole technology and advanced artificial intelligence?" Zhao Tianzhu asked.
"High technology?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Stupid, of course I know it's high-tech. What I want to talk about is some deep connection." Zhao Tianzhu said.
"I don't know about that." Xu Taiping scratched his head.
"These two things are to reduce energy consumption!" Zhao Tianzhu said.
"Reduce energy consumption?" Xu Taiping frowned, "Miniature wormhole technology and advanced artificial intelligence, how did that reduce energy consumption?"
"Miniature wormhole technology currently requires a lot of energy, but once this technology matures, it can teleport hundreds to thousands of people at once, and when the equipment can be reused, cars, trucks, planes, these things will all be eliminated. Advanced artificial intelligence can replace humans and do a lot of work. That way, people can stay home and do more mental activities. Of course, it is very unlikely for these two things to reduce energy consumption in a short period of time, possibly in the hundreds, or even thousands, of years. In that case, there is only one last thing left to reduce energy consumption, and that is the cultivator's world! " Zhao Tiezhu solemnly said.
"This game of the Cultivator's World?" Old Ancestor, I still don't really understand. Can you explain it in more detail? " Xu Taiping asked.
This game can become the second world for humans, and after our tests, after entering this game, the human body's energy requirement will be reduced by more than 80%. In other words, in the past, if you eat a meal before, you will eat a meal in four hours, and once you enter the game, you will be able to play inside the game for a day and a night. Furthermore, if you are inside the game, you will be able to reduce your activity, travel energy consumption, and most of all, your energy consumption in this world will be reduced! Zhao Tianzhu said.
"Why do you want to save energy when you've always been talking about saving energy?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Because … Little Ice Age is here! " Zhao Tiezhu solemnly said.
"Small ice age?" Xu Taiping froze for a moment, then asked, "What is the Little Ice Age?"
The Small Ice Age is a period that must be experienced by Earth's development. From the time it was recorded until now, Earth has experienced two small ice ages, the most recent one appeared hundreds of years ago, the last year of the Ming Dynasty, when the Little Ice Age arrived, the temperature dropped and the yield of the crops fell, and the population just happened to experience a huge increase at that time, the final result was the appearance of a large area of famine, which caused the population to fall in a short period of time. This Small Ice Age not only affected China, it also affected the entire world. Zhao Tianzhu said.
"That is still ancient times, and there is no shortage of food right now. Even if the Small Ice Age comes and the temperature drops, then there should be no problem." Xu Taiping said.
"You don't understand." Zhao Tianzhu shook his head and said, "This era is indeed not lacking in food, but after the ice age arrives, the temperature will drop and the energy consumption will rise. At the same time, the birth rate will also rise, which will increase the energy consumption even more, and the world energy mining will have a serious decline, and the energy countries' oil production will have almost dried up, as you should know, and heat, wind, and nuclear energy, the entire world's energy development has started to go downhill. At that time, energy will become more and more precious, and in order to compete for energy, the war will become an indispensable means."
"Within a hundred years … I thought the earth would dry up in ten years. " Xu Taiping laughed.
"Don't think that a hundred years is too long … When the Small Ice Age approaches, it is possible that your son, your grandson, will have to experience the energy exhaustion effect. Perhaps you think that the influence of our family will be small, but don't forget how powerful the Ming dynasty was a few hundred years ago. From the Small Ice Age to the end of the Ming dynasty, it is only ten to twenty years. So, 30% of the people on Earth in the future could be us Zhao Family members, or maybe your loved ones! " Zhao Tiezhu solemnly said.
Hearing Zhao Tianzhu's words, Xu Taiping pondered for a moment before asking, "And then?"
"To survive the ice age, the easiest way is to reduce energy consumption and develop new energy sources. Only with both these can we safely survive the ice age and develop new energy sources around the world. The energy nation has invested over a trillion dollars in developing new energy sources, but only just barely touched the surface. Isn't it because they can no longer afford the high cost of developing new energy sources? "However, they didn't want to take advantage of other countries, so they sent officials disguised as businessmen to invest in other countries. The reason why there were rebels in the Energy Congress was because some people did not agree to continue developing new sources of energy. That was why there was a conflict with the rebel army." Zhao Tianzhu said.
Hearing Zhao Tianzhu's words, Xu Taiping was shocked. He never thought that his projects in the country of energy would have such a deep background.
"We can only try our luck in developing a new energy source. If we are lucky, we might be able to develop a new energy source that can replace the current energy source." We can only try our luck in developing a new energy source. This aspect of energy consumption reduction. After that, we did some research, discussed it, and finally worked out a plan called the Human Hibernation Program. " Zhao Tianzhu said.
Human hibernation plan?!
When Xu Taiping heard this name, he felt a burst of energy. This was a plan that started with humans, it sounded very impressive.
"What is the human hibernation plan?" Xu Taiping asked.
When a person enters the game, their body will be equivalent to hibernation, so the name of the project is Human Hibernation Program. Our plan is to have more than half of the world's population stay in the game for a long time, so we can reduce the energy consumption a lot, and from what Wang Xiaosi has calculated, if we can carry out this plan, we can reduce the impact of the ice age to the minimum. This time's ice age is estimated to be over three hundred years. Zhao Tianzhu said.
"In other words, the more people become addicted to this game, the more they will save energy, is that what you're saying?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Yes!" Zhao Tianzhu nodded.
"Damn it, even in my dreams I never thought that indulging in games could save the world!" Xu Taiping said in shock.
"The world of cultivators is different from other games. Other worlds can't reduce energy consumption, and people can consume the same amount of energy as usual in the game. The world of cultivators, however, uses brainwaves to directly put the human body into hibernation, thereby reducing energy consumption." Zhao Tianzhu said.
"Then why do you think I passed the test?!" Xu Taiping asked.
This game, which has gathered all of our decades of effort, has created a world of cultivation that has transcended the current world. This kind of game, which has been promoted during the World's Strongest Martial Arts Competition, has already become popular in the world, and once promoted, it will definitely cause an unprecedented sensation, and may even affect the entire world's structure. So, this game cannot be controlled by any organization, or even any country. Zhao Tianzhu said.
"Great love? Are you talking about me? " Xu Taiping scratched his head and asked.
"Yes, at a crucial moment, you choose to give up your life in order to protect your lover. This is enough to prove that you are a person with great love. As for you, you have the ability to spread this game to the entire world. Therefore, I choose you in the end. Saying this, Zhao Tianzhu patted Xu Taiping's shoulder with an expression as if he was proud of him.
