Chapter 397 "Inequivalent Exchange"
Chapter 397 "Inequivalent Exchange"
Shikoti tilted her head, her expression seemed a little confused - she was still hovering at the gate of the extraordinary road, and she didn't have a thorough understanding of her family's inheritance.
Yan Luge continued: "And what is the alchemy system? In my opinion, its biggest core is 'unequivalent exchange'."
Shikoti murmured and repeated: "Not equivalent...exchange?"
Yan Lige said: "'Alchemy' - this extraordinary road originated from refining stones into gold, refining vegetation and fur into potions, and paying less price in exchange for more valuable things.
"The exchange process often violates the 'principle of equivalent exchange' under the natural science system, and can only be done with the help of spiritual power, so it itself is a kind of 'unequivalent exchange'."
That's true... Shikoti nodded.
Although most of the six alchemy materials she is currently collecting need to be obtained from extraordinary creatures, due to the fact that spiritual power is attached to the will, they will become "dead objects" after being stripped off, that is, without spiritual power The attached thing is no different from the knife, fork, table and chair on the physical level.
But after refining these "dead things", they can get the "bronze potion" that can awaken people to "alchemy"-it has to be said that this in itself is an incredible thing.
In the subsequent training process of the alchemist, similar things abound, and there are even "explosion techniques" that use a handful of dirt to blow up a building, and the "survival technique" that uses three feathers to bring the dead back to life.
"Exchange of unequal value" - using this word to describe the alchemy system is really not wrong at all.
"And the "Original Code" is the pinnacle product of the concept of 'unequivalent exchange'." Yanlvge continued, "As you said just now, it is like an 'automatic ledger' that can record the holder's daily The 'profit' and 'loss' of the interaction.
"The 'profit' and 'loss' are relatively subjective. Judging from your description, the behavior that can make the holder himself profit is a 'profit', and vice versa is a 'loss'.
"And after that, the profit points accumulated by the holders can be used to exchange for everything, from magical instruments to skills to magic circles, almost omnipotent...
"Xiaoshi, from the perspective of trade, think about it, is this set of rules reasonable?"
Shikoti took a light breath of air.
After all, she just figured out how to use the "Original Code", and she hasn't had time to think about the rules and logic behind this set of exchange functions.
But now, Yanlvge has uncovered the blind spots in her thinking and made her realize the biggest "unreasonable" part of it.
——The rule of the "Original Code" is "win-win".
She has already obtained what she deserves in her daily life, in the interaction, and in the process of trading, and the "Original Code" has accumulated a set of profit points for her in addition to what she deserves, and the profit points It can be exchanged for real things.
Win-win!
Pay once, gain twice!
"If you want me to say, the "Original Code" is the closest thing to the game system. You can accumulate experience points by doing whatever you want, and the experience points can be directly converted into strength..." Yan Luge muttered.
Involuntarily, he began to dislike the retarded system in his mind again.
——People's "Original Code" can send experience and equipment out of thin air, what else can you do besides generating some moth tasks?Not even a mission reward?
Tired.
When he heard Shikoti describe the function of this magic weapon, he felt "fucking" in his heart.
The last time he was so "fucking" was when he learned that Gu Nero had established a set of rules that transcended life and death, which could skip all the cultivation process and return the dead to the ninth level of one thought.
What if magic wasn't strong enough for the Ancient Nile?What should I do if I am not diligent enough in cultivation?What if the amendments are not perfect?
It doesn't matter, watch me reopen after death and beat you into scum.
Does this make sense?
It doesn't make sense.
Then the question arises, since the magic system of Ancient Nero is so powerful, why haven't they become the "destined rulers of Planet Aquamarine" and are still only "one of the five extraordinary kingdoms"?
If you think about it with your feet, you will know the answer—because the cultivation systems of the other four extraordinary kingdoms are as unreasonable as Ancient Nero.
Just look at this set of Caesar Empire.
The first is the alchemy system, where less is exchanged for more, the weak wins the strong, and the stability is excellent. It is enough to use an "alchemy" to go to the end step by step in the career, and the possibility of "awakening useless extraordinary abilities" in other systems sex to a minimum.
The last is the "Original Code", when you earn, you can keep earning; when you win, you can keep winning.
Win-win, virtuous circle, the strong will always be strong, and it will be numb to win directly.
Another example is the official seal of the Blackstone Research Institute in his hand, which is actually a product of part of the contract rules of the Caesar Empire, full of the core of "unequal treaties".
——The strength of ancient cultivators and modern supernatural beings is almost reasonable. In terms of imagination and creativity, no one is much worse than the other.
"I recently read some ancient books written by ancient alchemists." Shikoti said, "Most alchemists have spent their entire lives studying how to exchange more things with less.
"I think what they are doing is actually very similar to modern scientists."
Indeed... Compared with the combination of the dead and the priests of Ancient Nero next door, the alchemists of Ancient Caesar are indeed the most scholarly group of people.
It is not without reason that the rune technology originated from ancient Caesar.
"Yes." Yan Luge agreed, "And because of the existence of extraordinary power, they can do more things than scientists.
"For example, use a large-scale technique to forcibly suppress an active volcano that is about to erupt, or tear up the seal so that the hot magma engulfs a god.
"This is a great power that modern scientists have not been able to grasp so far."
This is the story recorded in "The Oath Narrative".
Hongliana, a lost city, some heroic people.
In that war between humans and gods, there was more than one "God Killer".
Shikoti's eyes brightened up, but then dimmed again.
"Even with such great power..." she said quietly, "we still lost."
"Yes."
"They failed to prevent the depletion of aura, and they failed to kill even a single god."
"Yes."
"The power we have now is far inferior to the cultivation era, but we have to face those things again?"
"Yes."
It's depressing to hear.
Even with Shikoti's disposition, he couldn't help feeling slightly depressed, feeling pessimistic, and feeling that the future of mankind is dark.
On the other side of her, Yanluge, who revealed everything, was as calm as ever—he already knew about that cruel future, or he had already experienced that dark age, so that nothing can be done now. Let him shake.
He just said quietly: "So, if our generation of transcendents cannot surpass their predecessors, if we continue to worship the past and suppress the present and respect the past, then sooner or later we will usher in another destruction.
"That's why I value ancient texts, but don't rely too much on them."
"That's why you violated the rules of the hidden world and revealed to us the existence of the extraordinary world?"
Shikoti seems to have misunderstood something.
But this topic is not going to be explained by Yanluge... at least for now.
So he just laughs.
Shikoti seemed to get the answer she wanted from his smile.
She realized that she herself was the existence "beyond previous people" that that person hoped for.
The face of the young eldest daughter of the emperor changed several times - from pessimism at first to confusion later, but she slowly became resolute in the end.
"I understand." She said, "Even if the road is full of thorns, I will go on until I catch up with you."
Yan Luge laughed: "Okay."
