Chapter 340 Shared Delay Virtual Connection

"I think as long as I work hard, this city will not be my destination. I want to explore the mysteries of the universe in the vast starry sky."

Biloli looked at all the furniture that had been installed, and then said to Yan Xia: "Which virtual world are you playing in?"

Yan Xia shook his head: "I basically don't play in the virtual world."

Biloli was surprised.

"Now there are still people who don't play in the virtual world..."

The virtual world has become an indispensable part of this era. Everyone spends a lot of time in the virtual world, because you can do anything in it, which is freer than in reality.

"How is it? Do you want to experience it for the first time?" Biloli is a very talkative person, he asked.

Yan Xia thought about it, thought it was okay, and agreed.

Now virtual connection does not require any external equipment, just let the secondary brain connect to the virtual world, the main consciousness enters the secondary brain, and then it will appear directly in the virtual world.

Yan Xia has indeed not entered the virtual world for a long time. I remember that the last time I talked about the virtual world with Ella was to discuss the construction of the virtual world. The virtual world should allow more ordinary people to participate in the construction, rather than maintaining several main worlds.

What does the virtual world look like now?

Before he opened his eyes, Yan Xia felt the breeze on his face, and then he opened his eyes and saw a two-dimensional world, and it was the kind of toilet paper animation quality.

He turned into a two-dimensional character, which was something Yan Xia had never expected.

At this time, he looked through his backpack, and there was really nothing in it. Even the level was the lowest level 1. The people coming and going around him looked impressive, but in fact, Yan Xia could see that these were all AIs, not real people.

According to Ella's data, the ratio of AIs to people in the entire virtual world is 100:1, that is, for every additional person, the system will create 100 AIs. This is strictly stipulated. The same is true for the world created by individuals. Only those who log in frequently have the permission to create AIs. Generally speaking, only the creator can arrange 100 AIs in the virtual world.

This is already a lot. For example, in the games of the old era, there were not even 100 NPCs in the entire game. If the virtual world itself is well made, then it can naturally form a virtuous circle. If the virtual world itself is not good, then don't waste social resources.

This virtual world seems to have a lot of AIs, so there must be something unique about it.

"Ding ding ding!"

At this time, a message came from the communication system. Yan Xia took a look and saw that it was Biluli.

Before entering the virtual world, they exchanged contact information. The contact information in reality is shared in the virtual world.

"I am on Island No. 14 in Sky City. Where are you?"

Yan Xia glanced at the map, "Island No. 7."

"Then wait for me, I'll teleport over."

Soon Yan Xia saw a white beam of light appear in the center of the city, and a dog ran towards this side.

"Yan Xia, I'm Biluli."

Yan Xia looked at Biluli on his face and was a little speechless: "Why are you this character?"

Biluli said: "Dogs are a rare race in this world. I finally completed the job transfer. Dogs' talents are all golden. I have been playing in this world for 40 years. How about it, handsome!"

As a person who has been through the 21st century, Yan Xia really can't understand.

He responded with a sentence, and then asked: "Do you like this style of virtual world?"

Biluli shook his head: "The picture quality here is indeed a slot, but the virtual world pays more attention to the gameplay. There are many islands in this world, and each island has a unique gameplay. There are also dungeons around each world."

"The most important thing is that the creator of the virtual world has minimized the delay, allowing players from a large part of the water committee area to play together. The virtual world, or simply the game, is not determined by the beautiful picture. The number of people often attracts everyone more."

Biluli took Yan Xia shopping in the city. In addition to the painting style, the whole world is indeed complete in many things, which has formed a perfect world view.

"How many people are there in the whole world?"

"About 190,000."

This is a very high number. Although the total number of people in the virtual world of the water committee is more than 10 trillion, most people are still gathered in the main world. For example, a world created by an individual with 100 players can make a profit, and more than 10,000 players basically belong to a large personal virtual world.

Yan Xia is a little curious about how the players in this virtual world achieve low latency.

Inside the Water Commission, even if you are in the same Mobius ring world, the delay may be more than 10 minutes, not to mention some star cities outside the star system, which are basically several hours.

The solution for the main world is to divide the area, so that people in this area and another area cannot enter the same virtual world together.

"It's actually very simple, just establish a high delay."

"Let people have delay no matter where they are, then everyone is actually equivalent to no delay."

The delay here actually refers to the average time difference of everyone. The information feedback time received by each player is the same, so that everyone is absolutely fair.

However, from Yan Xia's point of view, he didn't even feel the existence of delay.

It turns out that this virtual world uses new technology, which makes the consciousness of players who enter the virtual world lag behind. In other words, what Yan Xia is thinking at this time is actually what he thought a few minutes ago, but he himself does not perceive it because his information processing system is blinded.

"Such technology actually exists."

Yan Xia suddenly thought of the answer to what he had thought before.

"In reality, we cannot break through the limitations of physics, so can the virtual world be one of the solutions?"

Admittedly, the connection of the virtual world cannot really allow humans to set foot in the starry sky, but it can connect two or more star systems together.

"But that requires a delay of several years." Ella appeared in time to interrupt Yan Xia's thoughts.

That's a few years, not a few minutes, nor a few hours.

Many people can bear a few hours, and even some people can bear a few days, but a few years, the delay is already as big as the sea.

"But we have tachyon communication, don't we?"

"Tachyon communication has been around for so long, and its current application is still limited to the field of communication. This is too limited."

"We should develop more applications. If tachyon communication is used to build a virtual world in the star system, even if there is still a delay, it is within an acceptable range."

That will come at a high price.

The energy required for tachyon communication technology itself is very high, and if you want to build a virtual world, even a small virtual world, the amount of data required is terrifying.

Ella calculated and said, "That requires more than 100,000 tachyon communication devices, Yan Xia."

The entire federation now has only a few thousand tachyon communication devices.

"Do it. We have to take this step. At least we have to live up to this interstellar era. Too many people are trapped in a small city. Their vision should not be so narrow."

Biloli saw Yan Xia suddenly in a daze and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yan Xia came back to his senses and said, "Nothing. I'm thinking about something big that can change the Federation."

Biloli smiled and thought Yan Xia was joking. Then he began to talk to Yan Xia about the fun of this virtual world...
