Chapter 294: Stargazing and Prosperity (Star Landing City)
It is a room of about 200 square meters.
The corners of the room are unobstructed, except for the disc-shaped thing with a diameter of about ten meters in the center, there is not a trace of superfluous decoration in the room.
Wu Jun, Zheng Ming, and Qin Ze entered the room in turn.
"Let's go."
There was a chimeric sound of the door shut. The three of them were speechless to each other.
Different from the relaxed atmosphere when he came before, the atmosphere became a little calmer, and Zheng Ming asked in a low voice after being speechless for a moment.
"What is a comrade?"
The reason why I asked this question was because along the way, Zheng Ming heard a lot of people who called each other like this.
After Wu Jun heard Zheng Ming's question, he was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that Zheng Ming's first question was not what place this was, nor what he brought Zheng Ming here for, but something that seemed inconsequential.
"Uh......" After a short moment of thought, Wu Jun explained with a serious expression: "Comrade, take the meaning of like-mindedness. Although each of us is different and independent, we are united and different, seeking common ground while reserving differences. Our shared commitment has brought us together and worked hard for it. ”
"What kind of volunteering?"
"This is what I brought you here to explain......" Wu Jun said as he walked to the disc and turned to look at Zheng Ming.
"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, and establish a life for the people."
"Following the legacy of the sages, open the peace of the future generations."
"Sweep away the injustices in the world and save all the people from fire and water."
A sonorous voice came from Wu Jun. Zheng Ming could see that Wu Jun at this time had a belief in sacrificing himself and unwavering confidence on his face.
As he spoke, Wu Jun stepped down from the disc in the other direction. At the same time, the "disc", which seemed to be made of silver and covered with jet-black lines, suddenly shone brightly.
I saw colorful bright lights circulating on the pitch-black lines, and then turned into dots of light floating on it.
These spots of light condense into each other in the center of the disk, creating a natural landscape that feels like a paradise in the blink of an eye.
If you look closely, you can see that there are countless tiny humanoid points of light appearing. Dressed in dark green uniforms and armed with weapons that resembled the firearms of Zheng Ming's previous life, these people fought against aliens and beasts in the dense forest.
The points of light were extremely fast, the picture changed extremely quickly, and in an instant, those in dark green uniforms paid a heavy price and won the victory. Immediately afterwards, people in white uniforms began to build habitats with the help of dark green uniforms.
From the white-clothed uniform in the picture, you can vaguely see some shadows of the uniform worn by Qin Ze.
In a matter of moments, a small finger-sized town appeared in the disc.
"It's called Mechanical Heart City, and it's our first city."
Wu Jun's voice sounded at the right time, and then he stretched out his hand and tapped it, and the projection called Mechanical Heart City suddenly magnified, occupying almost one-third of the area of the disk.
The ant-like figure on it is diligent, resisting the harassment of expelling the surrounding forces, while constantly building and expanding the scope of the city.
From the frequent staggered lighting of one dark and one bright, as well as the staggered seasons presented in the projection, it can be seen that several years have passed in the projection.
At this time, the Mechanical Heart City had expanded to a volume that almost filled the disk, and Wu Jun also opened his palm at the right time. I saw that his right hand grabbed and pulled, and the scene in the disc suddenly shrunk, and soon changed back to its previous proportions.
Thanks to this, Zheng Ming also saw the whole picture of the projection. I saw that on the projection like a local map of the continent, the cities and villages with a glimmer of light lit up one after another.
These shimmers of light of different sizes continued to grow, trying to get closer to the direction of the fire ball of the Machine Heart City.
At this time, a crowd of black-spotted people rushed to a place at the edge of the projection and began to build the city.
"This is the Starland City we are in."
Wu Jun reminded and enlarged the map projection again. As if pressing a shortcut key, the construction process of a majestic city was fully seen by Zheng Ming.
From the beginning, the building complexes that were far inferior to the fourth- and fifth-tier cities in Zheng Ming's previous life continued to rise and expand, reaching the towering steel behemoth that covered an unknown area at the back. The history of prosperity spanning hundreds of thousands of years, in a way that has been condensed several times, is so vividly presented in front of Zheng Ming's eyes.
If you look carefully, you can find that the people living in the city have changed batch after batch, and the busy lives of those people, the rise and fall of those people, are so meticulously presented in Zheng Ming's eyes.
Just when Zheng Ming was gradually fascinated, Wu Jun stretched out his hand and pressed down slightly with his right palm, and the speed of the extremely fast projection suddenly decreased sharply.
"Take care of your eyes."
With Wu Jun's reminder, the "disc" suddenly bloomed with a dazzling scorching light, and although Zheng Ming reacted sharply and closed his eyes, he still dyed his world white through his eyelids.
"Alright."
After being reminded, Zheng Ming slowly opened his eyes, and after a brief period of discomfort, his vision returned to normal.
He looked up, where was the room he had been in? At some point, he appeared above the city, and from his position he could overlook the concentric circles of Starland City.
Under this vision, Zheng Ming can feel the vitality of the city more deeply.
People do their jobs here, and spend a peaceful and peaceful day away from the war.
And when these seemingly tedious, or even unrelated tasks come together as a whole, it is a rather conspicuous change.
These changes are reflected in the people, which is an increasingly convenient life and perfect welfare. Reflected in the streets, there are more and more sci-fi traffic facilities and projection advertisements. Embodied in the city as a whole, it is constantly getting taller and bigger and becoming indestructible.
"At the beginning of the construction of the city, there was not a single madman among those participants. Even now, the mad-level powerhouses involved in the construction are rare. Not to mention a mad-level powerhouse with a strong proof and a strong fight. ”
Wu Jun sighed with emotion and continued: "Except for a very small number of places where only the special abilities of mad-level powerhouses can participate, almost most of the facilities are completed by ordinary people with the assistance of equipment. These people have contacts in their respective fields, and they may have something in common, but that is by no means combat power. ”
Saying this, the two of them looked down at the changing beast below, breathing and growing like a giant beast, and were silent for a long time.
After a long time, the projection slowly dissipated, and in a trance, the three of them returned to the original room again.
"Whew~" I don't know when Zheng Ming also stood on the disc, he recalled the scene he had just seen, looked at the calm and empty room, and let out a long breath.
"How?"
Under Wu Jun's gaze, Zheng Ming pondered for a moment, and he probably guessed the other party's intentions.
"It's great. It's a miracle. ”
"Yes, great. It's not the greatness of that small group, it's the miracle of our whole. From ancient times to the present, we humans have relied on cooperation and mutual help. Our strength lies in complementarity and mutual benefit.
No matter how strong an individual's combat power is, there will be things that he is not good at. A strong man may be able to slaughter an entire city, but he can't build a city on his own, develop technology, and manage people's livelihoods. You must know that in these aspects, the people of a city can cultivate talents who are better than him.
Do you understand what I mean? ”
Under Wu Jun's solemn question, Zheng Ming nodded and replied: "Do you want to say that purely for the sake of development, we should not adopt a social structure that puts combat power first?" ”
"Yes, that's right. A person who specializes in combat and has an outstanding talent for fighting does have the power to kill the rest of the people with a single move. However, this should not and cannot be a reason for them to be in high positions. They, like all professions, should be part of the whole of our heavenly beings. A high position should be accompanied by corresponding contributions and responsibilities.
Only in this way can we develop and grow together and achieve overall progress. It is not because of attacking each other that civilization has come to a standstill, or even regressed.
The powerful provide protection, and the backward provide delicious food, entertainment for relaxation, comfortable living conditions, and even technological artifacts that take the strong one step further. This is the healthy and reasonable survival structure, and this is the foundation for us to occupy a piece of territory and continue to expand in the Starfall Continent, where the group of clans stands. ”
Wu Jun's narration made Zheng Ming full of emotion. In a trance, his thoughts seemed to return to a long time ago, the knight who was as bright as the sun and was forced to disguise himself as a man, and his former king, held a very similar philosophy.
His thoughts were agitated, his mind fluctuated, and he stood in place in a daze, his eyes empty.
"Heh......"
For a long time, for a long time.
He chuckled and came back to his senses, and although the memory was like an unripe dry fruit for him, it was undeniable that there was a trace of nostalgia in his heart.
Restraining the complicated emotions in his heart, Zheng Ming raised his eyes.
Wu Jun didn't know when he had left, leaving only Qin Ze with an expressionless face in the room, standing not far away to observe him.
"The teacher left first, and he asked me to take you back. Because your business has been delayed for several days, he must rush back to finish his work. ”
Qin Ze recounted the current situation in a calm and indifferent tone, and then said coldly: "Why hide it? You should remember the things in the fantasy world, right? ”
Seeing this, Zheng Ming didn't rush to answer, he calmly walked in front of Qin Ze, observing his facial expressions and the changes in his eyes.
After a long time, Zheng Ming smiled.
He looked at Qin Ze, who had excellent patience and did not show the slightest change in expression, and said in the same tone: "Isn't my concealment just in line with you?" If I'm not expecting it, I can remember the illusion, probably because of you, right? ”
Hearing this, Qin Ze subconsciously raised his glasses, and his tone was as calm and indifferent as ever, "Sure enough." Is it because of the teacher's inquiry? Originally, the participants were supposed to be in a dream, but I deliberately reduced the input of several potions. ”
Seeing that Zheng Ming didn't show the slightest emotion, just smiled and nodded, Qin Ze's gaze under his glasses wandered for a moment, and he opened his mouth to explain.
"I judge that the influence of illusions will have a positive effect on your character. This effect is even more profound with the aid of memory. And ......" After a brief pause, he continued, "It's good for you, isn't it?" After all, your experience in it and the inheritance you have obtained are all deduced by the brain according to reality, and they are also applicable in reality. ”
"I was angry when I first came out. Because I realized that I was yin. ”
Zheng Ming's sudden answer was not what he asked, which made Qin Ze slightly stunned.
"But, in hindsight, whatever your purpose for doing this, I have nothing to lose. I revisited my memories and made me more aware of myself.
I sank in a fantasy world, lived countless lives, and made countless choices. This is very valuable and will help me look at things from a more perspective when I encounter problems in the future.
And it is undeniable that I have experienced a full life that I have experienced several times in it. Especially the last reincarnation, that life almost matches the world's standard of happiness.
Adventures continue, danger is turned into relief, status is noble, and family is happy. After all this, I saw my own pursuit clearly.
In a way, these experiences are more precious than the cultivation techniques and supernatural powers I have gained in them. ”
Seeing that Zheng Ming's demeanor was calm and not fake, Qin Ze's expression finally changed. The doubts in his heart were presented to his face and eyes bit by bit.
may be really incomprehensible, Qin Ze changed his normal way and stabbed Zheng Ming.
"Do you really think so? Because of me, you are in danger of eternal destruction. If you really integrate into the illusion, even if you are forcibly awakened, you are only the Zheng Ming in the environment, not the previous you. Are you still grateful? ”
Zheng Ming couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head when he heard this: "You seem to have misunderstood something." I don't appreciate what you did, I just dismissed the idea of taking revenge on you and killing you. If, as you say, I covet illusions and perish forever, that's because of me. Isn't that another kind of happiness?
Of course, I'm not that kind of person in terms of results. If I was able to break free from the illusion, be more determined to be more determined, and still profit from it, why should I hold a grudge against it? This is not a conspiracy against me, it is essentially a trial by itself. ”
Speaking of this, Zheng Ming carefully glanced at the silent Qin Ze and changed the topic.
"You seem hostile to me? Maybe you haven't realized it yet, maybe it's because we're essentially the same kind of people, right? The difference is that you're more maverick and have no regard for other people's eyes. I'm better at acting, at least making myself look like a human being with some flesh. Essentially, we are all emotionally flawed people. ”
"What do you know?"
Seeing Qin Ze's cold tone of disapproval, Zheng Ming smiled disapprovingly.
"Humans are creatures who have learned the ability to lie in order to survive. It's an instinct that almost everyone does. However, most people's bodies are still very honest, and they will have subtle changes in their inner thoughts. Of course, everyone behaves differently depending on their habits and situations. However, as long as you observe more and combine the current situation, you can still read the other person's thoughts. It is an ability that is used to communicate in addition to language.
And it just so happens that I have some means of collecting this intelligence information, which I didn't realize before, but I just saw people very accurately. Now I think it's me subconsciously using this ability. ”
Speaking of this, Zheng Ming glanced at the transparent floating light that was constantly circulating on the other party's glasses, and said meaningfully: "These things are not something that can be analyzed by AI. After speaking, Qin Ze, who ignored his slightly stiff body, took the lead and walked out of the door.
"Can you send me back now?"
