I Build a Floating City in the Apocalypse – Chapter 161

Chapter 161

“Use a dot to represent one, and a blank space to represent zero.”

Fang Bai’s thoughts stirred, and many dots on the top plane of the spell slot disappeared. With a sweep of his Mental Power, Fang Bai read rows of binary numbers.

“With just a character library, I can use these dot matrices to record a large amount of information, and this information won’t blur with the passage of time.

Regardless of whether I can understand it, regardless of whether my memory is good, as long as I store it, even after ten or twenty years, there won’t be a single character difference when I read it!

And using the dot matrix method, I can completely store text, images, or even videos and access them at any time!”

Fang Bai stored the character library and some decoding methods he had prepared into the spell slot he had just created.

These character libraries and decoding methods weren’t created by Fang Bai; they were directly copied from real-world technology. This knowledge was readily available, so he just needed to transfer it into the spell slot for storage.

This was also the reason why Fang Bai continued to use dot matrices and the binary storage method.

Dot matrix storage may not be the method with the largest information storage capacity, and binary may not be the best base, but they are definitely the most mature technologies.

Fang Bai didn’t need to create a system from scratch. Creating a new one would be time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to errors and vulnerabilities.

The well-developed computer system legacy from the real world was enough for Fang Bai to use for a very long time. This was also a vast treasure trove.

Currently, Fang Bai was only using information storage technology, but in the future, he would definitely not stop at just this technology.

The Mage profession, whether in research or combat, is a profession that consumes computing power.

Fang Bai felt that no matter how much computing power a Mage had, it would never be enough. Relying solely on the computing power that came with Mental Power was barely sufficient for anything, and research would inevitably be limited.

Naturally, the supercomputers, the scientific research artifacts of researchers in the modern system, came into Fang Bai’s view.

For now, let’s not even talk about supercomputers; even being able to fit an ordinary laptop into his head would make Fang Bai laugh out loud.

Unfortunately, Fang Bai had currently only found a way to store information but hadn’t found a way to run it.

“Take it slow.”

Fang Bai smiled slightly, sensing the forty Mage Apprentices gathered in the matchbox conference room. With a thought, a projection slowly formed on the podium.

Because Fang Bai hadn’t arrived yet, the forty Mage Apprentices excitedly talked about their meditation experiences and the results of their meditation.

Some people’s Mental Power increased a bit more after a night of meditation, while others’ Mental Power increased by less than half of the maximum amount after a night of meditation.

At this time, there seemed to be a difference in talent. As they were discussing, with a surge of elemental fluctuations, everyone turned their heads to look at the podium.

On the podium, Fang Bai appeared. Instantly, the conference room fell silent.

Looking at the quiet conference room and the forty Mage Apprentices, Fang Bai smiled slightly, without any intention of explaining. He picked up a marker, tapped on the whiteboard, and said,

“Okay, let’s start the class. We’ll continue with yesterday’s content.

Spell nodes…”

Fang Bai’s lecture echoed in the conference room. Everyone quickly adjusted their emotions, took out their notebooks, and quickly recorded notes.

While Fang Bai started his lecture, experiments began underground at the same time.

In the underground cultivation room, Fang Bai condensed the spell architecture again and started the experiment according to the experimental plan recorded in the Two-Ring spell slot.

Fang Bai recorded every experimental process, the results of the experiment, and even some experiences and insights from the experiment into the Two-Ring spell slot.

Fang Bai, who had just started, was a bit clumsy in both reading and writing, but he didn’t make any mistakes.

As time passed and he used it repeatedly, Fang Bai became more familiar with the rules of reading and writing, and the time required for this became shorter and shorter.

It was foreseeable that with frequent use, it wouldn’t take long for reading and writing to become Fang Bai’s instinctive reaction.

By that time, Fang Bai would probably be able to look at these dot matrices as easily and intuitively as he looked at Chinese characters or pictures.

Perhaps by that time, Fang Bai would also be able to browse hard drives and computer information like reading a book?

It was a pity that the hard drives and computers of the Stone City auxiliary police had been damaged by elemental power. Otherwise, Fang Bai would really want to try this feeling.

“But in other areas where the elements aren’t so dense, should electronic products still be usable?”

Fang Bai’s heart stirred slightly.

“After all, the reason why the elemental concentration around Stone City is so high is entirely because of the Mage Tower ruins at the core of Stone City. If it weren’t for these ruins, electronic products could still operate normally with the original elemental concentration.

It’s impossible for there to be ruins everywhere in the world, right?

So there must be places where electronic products can still be used!

If I go outside these areas, I could directly read the information stored on hard drives and computers with my Mental Power.

If I could find a place like a library with storage services, then I might be able to read a large amount of knowledge about modern technology at once.”

Fang Bai’s heart was slightly moved, but then he shook his head slightly, calmed down, continued the experiment, and clumsily read and wrote information from the Two-Ring spell slot.

On the ground, Wang Kai, who had finally learned the Blood-red Shield spell model, led ten knights in cultivation step by step.

Among the ten knights, three already possessed Mental Power and had been cultivating with Wang Kai’s new cultivation method from the beginning. The others needed Wang Kai to construct spell models for them to cultivate.

In the village, Bai Qing held meeting after meeting to discuss and research the construction of Yi Hao Village, deploying and implementing construction plans one after another.

The Mental Power he had gained ensured that he had sufficient mental capacity, and the meditation technique Fang Bai had taught him guaranteed that he had the energy to work around the clock.

Yi Hao Village was like a massive and rugged machine, advancing relentlessly on this land.

Everyone was a gear, a component, driving the most prosperous village in Shen Shan Town.

The village market was bustling with people. The sun rose and slowly set, and in the blink of an eye, the sky gradually darkened.

Fang Bai, in the classroom, announced that it was time for discussion and experimentation, and he also announced a small task.

“I’ll give you a small task. You can modify a spell structure based on what I taught today. The requirement is that it can be formed normally and used normally.

This small task is not mandatory; it’s entirely voluntary.”

Fang Bai finished speaking and dispersed the projection with a smile.

The people in the conference room looked at each other, and a competitive spirit arose in their hearts.

The Mage Apprentices left in pairs, heading to the adjacent laboratories and discussion rooms.

The most eye-catching pair was Ding Shan and Luo Qing.
