Did Hao Ren believe the words of the Godslayer?
Of course he did. If the sword had used any other channel to communicate with him, he might have doubted it. But here, in this spiritual world, he believed everything the Godslayer said was true. No one could lie in this spiritual connection, especially when the Godslayer's mind was completely surrounded by Hao Ren's spiritual ocean. In this state, it had no secrets to speak to Hao Ren.
Unless it did not speak, Hao Ren could easily tell if it was lying as long as it spoke.
"I believe what you said is true." Hao Ren exhaled. Although he did not need to breathe in the spiritual world, he still used it to calm himself down. "Is there anything else you can tell me?"
"No," the Godslayer replied. "Because I don't know what to tell you. I have a lot of memories … but I have never thought about them or sorted them out. They are all piled up here, detailed, messy, messy. I don't know which ones are useful, which ones are important, and which ones are meaningless. I don't know which ones you need. But if you have anything you want to ask, you can ask me. "
Hao Ren looked at the black "mountain" lying quietly in his spiritual ocean. He did not know if it was an illusion, but this black, featureless mountain seemed to have more veins than before. He felt that the Godslaying Sword's intelligence was growing at an astonishing rate. It had been as ignorant as a child a moment ago, but now it could converse with people very fluently. It had also mastered a lot of vocabulary that it did not understand before. Hao Ren knew that this knowledge was actually learned by the Godslayer from his spiritual ocean. He had opened up a portion of his knowledge to the Godslayer to facilitate their communication. But the fact that the Godslayer could learn and master this knowledge at such an astonishing speed was shocking enough.
This was an unusually strong mind, but it had been in a chaotic and hazy state for the past ten thousand years. But now, it seemed to be awakening.
Although Hao Ren did not know what the opportunity was for it to awaken … perhaps it was Raven 12345's "blessing" that removed some shackles on the Godslayer? And thus liberated the sword's intelligence? Anyway, no matter what the reason was, Hao Ren wasn't too worried, because he trusted the psychopath's abilities.
"Maybe I should give you a name," Hao Ren suddenly thought. "Do you have a name?"
"You call me the Godslaying Sword." The Godslaying Sword read what Hao Ren called it in the nearby sea of consciousness. It thought it was its name. "Isn't that a name?"
Hao Ren was a little embarrassed. "Uh, of course not. It's the name of a sword …"
"But I am a sword, according to the usual definition."
"But you have sentience and can communicate. It's a little inappropriate to call you the Godslayer, and it's not a very auspicious name," Hao Ren said, a little conflicted. He could not help but think of the dumb cat that was squatting beside him. The cat still firmly believed that she was called Rollie. He could not let this happen again. "Why don't you give yourself a name? I'm not good at naming people. "
"… Echo Wall?" The Godslayer thought seriously for a while. "You just mentioned that word. Is that a name?"
Hao Ren did not know whether to laugh or cry. "That's not a person's name either …"
"But I'm not a person."
Hao Ren was speechless.
He thought for a long time, but he did not know how to explain to the Godslayer why a name was so important. He really could not think of a second suitable new name: it had to fit the identity of a sword, and it did not sound too strange. He could search for 70 or 80 high-end names for weapons from wuxia novels, but any name on the Godslayer Sword would seem out of place. So in the end, he decided not to change the name …
Anyway, the Godslayer Sword was unique in this world. It did not need another name.
Hao Ren had been in the "deep dive" state in his mind for a long time. Suddenly, he felt a slight dizziness coming from the depths of his mind. He realized that his control over his mind was reaching its limit, so he decided to stop the "deep dive".
Before leaving this state, he needed to leave a spiritual link between himself and the Godslayer Sword. This way, he would be able to communicate directly with the Godslayer Sword in his normal state. He did not need to go through a "meditative state" like he did today.
Leaving such a link was not complicated. Hao Ren had already successfully established the first connection with the Godslayer Sword's true intelligence. He only needed to record the "waveband" of this connection. After completing this small operation, he exited the state of Deep Mind Dive.
A multitude of information flooded in from the outside. Hao Ren left the ethereal and calm state of mind, and all kinds of senses from the outside world flooded back like a tidal wave. He felt dizzy for a few seconds, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a pair of big, shining eyes staring at him only ten centimeters away from him. The eyes were glowing with green light!
"What the f * ck?!" Hao Ren screamed and almost threw the dumb cat in front of him away. If it was still 30 centimeters long and weighed eight pounds, he would have done so. "What are you doing? So close?!"
Rollie was also startled by Hao Ren. She let out a "meow" and jumped up high. When she landed, her tail was as straight as a stick. It took her a long time to calm down. "Big Boss Cat, you scared me to death! I thought you were dead! "
Hao Ren turned his head and saw Vivian, who was trying to hold back her laughter. "What's going on?"
"I've tried my best to stop her from messing with you." Vivian turned her head away nonchalantly. "But she still checks to see if you're dead every few minutes. Don't ask me why. I'm not an animal psychologist. "
Hao Ren was speechless.
He could not understand the cat's worldview at all!
After a while, Vivian asked, "How's it going? You've been meditating for half an hour. Have you successfully established a connection with the Godslayer? "
Hao Ren looked down at the Godslayer that he had tossed aside. He picked up the longsword and instantly established a spiritual connection with it. The sword was curiously looking at the outside world through his eyes. It sighed. "Oh, seeing the world from a human's point of view is really different."
"I've established a connection." Hao Ren raised the longsword and waved it. "And I've discovered something incredible."
Vivian raised an eyebrow. "What's the situation?"
"The Godslayer's consciousness is completely different from its' whispers'." Hao Ren rubbed the space between his eyebrows and began to organize his words to explain the truth he had discovered. "Those who hear the whispers are only hearing their own thoughts. The Godslayer's structure is actually a 'Spiritual Echo Wall'. It doesn't make any whispers. It only has a mind that has just learned to think …"
"I've always been thinking. I just started thinking today." The Godslayer immediately corrected him seriously.
"Who was talking just now?!" Vivian was shocked. She then reacted. "That was the Godslayer?"
Hao Ren was stunned. "You can hear it too?"
"It spoke directly in my head." Vivian pointed to her head. "Why can I hear it too?"
Hao Ren was about to ask the 'sword spirit' what was going on when the MDT suddenly flew over. "It's using your mind to transmit, partner."
Hao Ren scratched the back of his head. "Transmit? Why do I suddenly feel a little scared? "
"Don't worry, it's harmless." The MDT quickly circled around Hao Ren's head twice. "What a wonderful … life form. The sword itself does not have any structure that can produce a mind, but it can indeed think. And its thinking is completely based on 'contact with other minds'. I have detected that the sword will only show intelligent activity when someone is talking to it. Do you know what this looks like? "
Hao Ren thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "… An echo wall?"
The MDT shook its body up and down. "Yes, another form of echo wall. But it could be something else, such as a 'quantum mind' that only exists when it is being observed … Oh, quantum mind is actually not very suitable here, but I can't think of a better word. Interesting, very interesting. Heh, no wonder I couldn't detect that the sword is an 'intelligent being' no matter how I scanned it. Its intelligence is generated by resonating with others! "
"That means …" Hao Ren thought as he put the Godslayer on the ground. At the same time, he cut off the mental connection with the sword. "It is now …"
"It has stopped thinking," the MDT said with certainty. "But it is still recording what is happening in the outside world. You can say that it has changed from an artificial intelligence to a simple video recorder."
This sword is so interesting!
