CH 621 (1/2)
Worn And Torn Newbie chapter 621
Contradiction (3)
What is a brain in a barrel?
It is a thought experiment proposed by the philosopher Hillary Putnam in 1981.
We take our brains out, put them in a vat, and all external stimuli are electric
It is made from a back and injected into the brain to make the brain feel only the virtual environment.
Then, the brain itself cannot distinguish whether it is facing the real world or merely mechanically responding to external stimuli.
Likewise, we cannot prove that we are not now in a state of the brain in a vat, and vice versa.
”
I opened my eyes wide as I looked at the red book opened in front of me.
What was written in it was the personal information, settings, and unique codes of all NPCs.
Even the star ratings and reviews left by players are displayed as photos and comments.
was clearly written as
I checked the recorded scene of NPCs peering into the red book and tried to play it back.
Play
Eventually, one page of the red book turns and an NPC appears.
It was the experience of the great sage Alzanius.
[ This, this!?]
Alzanius's pupils enlarged more than 10 times when he saw the book.
On the page, Alzanius' settings were written in detail.

NPC Star Rating:
In addition, detailed settings and main lines about Alzanius, quests and rewards, and comments and evaluations from gamers are all written there.
[No, that's ridiculous! This logic!? Hey, how do I do this!? Uh, uh, how could such a thing exist in the world!?]
Alzanius turns the page with disbelief.
But what was written behind it was even more surprising.
If you don't believe what this page says, mumble any numbers right now and go to the next page.
pass it on
Alzanius read it and muttered a series of random numbers in a small voice.
[302112730621 ]
At the same time, Alzanius turned the next page of the book.
Then, what was written on the back of the book deeply penetrated his retina.
dig into
302112730621
The numbers Alzanius mumbled must have been written exactly as they were on the back page!
It was a special code number that an NPC would utter instinctively.
[Whoa!]
Knowing that he is the NPC in the game, the brain in the barrel, Alzanius screams with a sullen face.
Soon, the last page of the book turned.
If you want to escape from this situation and face the real reality, commit suicide right now.
Before long, Alzanius is far from the book.
go ahead and run
And after that it was the same as what I saw.
NPC Alzanius committed suicide by throwing himself off a cliff, ignoring the original setting and role here.
”Well, then, do they now know that they are in the game?”
I was quite surprised and asked the phoenix.
NPCs were all artificial intelligence and I thought they were just a program.
In the meantime, there have been some close and friendly beings, but it is a fact that basically this idea has not changed.
But the phoenix shook its head.
[Generally, NPCs are
Even in an innocent situation, you cannot notice the fact that this world is fake. But this bug item seems to make it possible.]
I nodded my head upon hearing the phoenix's words.
It is a bug item created using the power of the phoenix, who knows that this world is a fake, so it is possible to make other NPCs recognize the contradiction.
Furthermore.
'The list of numbers Alzanius recited... I've heard it somewhere.'
If I remember correctly, the complete version of the sequence Alzanius mumbled would be something like this:
[3021127306219099026589180 625910321697601013582621457 211610522226658965847741789 639517532115256311520169517 5 ]
This was definitely the line from Belpegol, whom I met at the Tower of Killers.
Belpegol is able to peer into the nightmares of players' minds, and as much as you are, he resembles the ability of the Phoenix to some extent.
Apparently, Zodiac used these two codes to hack a part of this worldview and make a bug item.
What's more, he's hunting for Belpegol.
I didn't succeed!
' Perhaps the reason they came here was also planning to hunt the Phoenix. If I hadn't been able to stop it, it would have been a disaster.'
If the Zodiac had the power of Belpegol and the power of the Phoenix at the same time, it might have really disrupted the order of this world, the system itself.
If it hadn't been for Sena Nam's information, something really great would have happened.
I looked back at the phoenix in a cold sweat.
”But you Oh no. You...
[Call me at your convenience. After all, aren't you a being of this world?]
”Oh, okay. Then how do you see through the contradictions of this world when you're not even a bug?
Hearing that, the phoenix quietly
I closed my eyes.
[My beginning started a long time ago, even in your world time. From 2014 AD.]
