RNP 101. As perfect as AI
101. As perfect as AI
Jiang Chen turned his head and looked at the leather sofa to the side. The sofa was empty, with no one or anything on it.
His tone was very certain, "This bartender in front of me is flawless in appearance, movement, and voice, but he has no heartbeat, no breath, and not even the most basic electromagnetic field of a living being."
"So, it's just an illusion, what we often call a smokescreen, right?"
"Hehehe... I didn't expect to be exposed in terms of electromagnetic fields. Your use of lightning magic is quite unique."
Accompanied by a melodious, silvery laugh, the previously empty sofa was illuminated by distorted light and shadow, as if parting the clouds, and the silhouette of a woman gradually emerged.
She appeared very slowly, so you could clearly see her captivating, devilish curves gradually emerging.
The most alluring things are those that are partially hidden, making it impossible not to have wild fantasies.
She leaned lazily against the sofa, her long, black hair cascading down like an ink-black waterfall.
Her skin was snow-white, so delicate that not a single pore was visible, as if it could be broken with a touch, and it shone with a captivating luster under the light.
Her features were exquisite, with a pair of captivating peach blossom eyes that seemed to easily capture the heart of any man.
Those long, slender arms and firm, smooth legs reminded Jiang Chen of a line of poetry.
Her skin was as smooth as ice and her bones as pure as jade, and she was free from sweat; a gentle breeze wafted through the water pavilion, filling it with a subtle fragrance!
So tempting! Definitely legs to admire for years.
What's most lethal is her captivating curves; every unintentional movement exudes an allure that makes one's hormones succumb.
This woman is an absolute beauty that most men would find stunning at first glance, captivating their attention.
Her skin, her legs, her waist—everything about her was exquisite, making one's mouth water.
However, there was not a trace of desire in Jiang Chen's eyes when facing such a beauty.
His gaze was indeed drawn, but what attracted him was not beauty, but something else. This made him examine it carefully and repeatedly, until he frowned slightly, and there was even a hint of disdain in his eyes.
The woman naturally noticed this "unromantic" gaze, and her charming smile froze slightly, with surprise and confusion appearing in her eyes.
She had met countless men, whether they were hypocritical, sanctimonious, successful, or insecure and lacking in self-confidence...
But the way they looked at themselves was one of deep infatuation, adoration, and a greedy possessiveness, a beast-like aggression.
But Jiang Chen's gaze made her feel like a specimen, as if he was considering how to make the cut.
Why are you looking at me like that? Don't I have any appeal to you at all?
"From a biological point of view, whether it is your appearance or your body proportions, you perfectly conform to the golden ratio. It can be said that every detail is precisely on point."
"But it is precisely because it is too perfect that it seems fake, just like AI. AI can generate a perfect goddess or god that fulfills all your fantasies."
"However, the current level of AI is not yet sufficient. It is still difficult to make it indistinguishable from reality. It always gives you a feeling of unreality and inhumanity, while you can completely achieve this."
The woman's expression was a little stiff; she couldn't quite understand Jiang Chen's thought process, so Jiang Chen explained it from one angle.
"I studied medicine, and over the years I've developed a habit of always looking for the most suitable anatomical path to make the incision when examining the human body, as well as the major arteries and nerve plexuses that need to be avoided."
"And your body structure..."
He looked the woman up and down, then shook his head.
"...It's so perfect that I can't find any gaps to cut into it, which is unreasonable."
At this point, Jiang Chen gave his final conclusion.
"Therefore, I conclude that your current form is still not your physical body."
"But the biomagnetic field is in this direction, so this is no longer a simple visual illusion, but a mental illusion formed by directly altering or interfering with the cognitive areas of my brain."
"You've shown my brain a perfect woman, but in reality, there's still nothing there."
The woman put away her alluring demeanor, which could have captivated countless men and women; her eyes held a hint of shock, yet also a touch of relief.
She sighed softly, pursed her lips, and said in a voice tinged with frustration and helplessness.
"...The last person to describe me like that was also a medical student."
After a long while, the woman finally recovered from her shock. "Are all medical students...having such strange brain circuits?"
The previous one studied medicine.
These words made Jiang Chen's mind wander. Could it be related to him?
Is it a coincidence, or...?
Before he could think it through, the woman lost interest in continuing the pretense, and her whole being turned into a wisp of mist, disappearing completely with the wind.
Although the person has disappeared, her voice still remains.
"You can see through my illusions and the magic I cast. Even though I didn't use my full strength, you are worthy to know my name."
"My name is Shen, the Shen of mirage."
蜃！
Jiang Chen knew that this was a spirit from the "Classic of Mountains and Seas," an ancient book of legends. It was said that its true form was a giant clam-like creature that could exhale to form towers and cities and create mirages.
Resurrection Incense, Cat Lord, Sorcerer, Li Lianying, Zombies, Four Spirits Family...
Looking back on everything that had happened in the past two months, Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was getting further and further away from the world of ordinary people. On the contrary, this bizarre and wonderful world had unveiled another layer of the veil for him, allowing him to see more things.
Pulling himself out of his complicated thoughts, Jiang Chen asked Shen a question, "Can I leave here?"
"Hehehe..." A silvery laugh, Shen's voice came from all directions, "If you want to leave, I won't force you. The door isn't locked, please go ahead."
Jiang Chen paused slightly. From the other person's tone, he could not detect any intention to obstruct, but rather a secret expectation.
This gave Jiang Chen a strong premonition that leaving this place would not be an easy task.
But he turned around without hesitation and walked toward the bar's door.
This place is not safe to linger. No matter what traps lie ahead, we'll only know after we've stepped into them.
There were no energy fluctuations, no spiritual energy traps, and not even the slightest abnormality could be detected.
Jiang Chen carefully checked repeatedly for hundreds of years, and this gate was just an ordinary gate.
The more ordinary it was, the stronger Jiang Chen's unease became.
But he had no choice. He took a deep breath, suppressed his unease, and gripped the doorknob with his right hand.
Twist it, push it open.
