The river of years flows forward.

Before you know it, it seems that many years have passed.

The planet of Helfa, which was once mired in a devastating war and was barren and chaotic, is now full of vitality with blue skies, blue seas, and greenery.

Gazing from space, the planet is as beautiful as a sparkling sapphire.

On a certain coast, on the rocks of a white sand beach, sits a shirtless man wearing floral beach pants and a straw hat.

With a fishing rod in his hand, he was enjoying the warm sea breeze and leisurely fishing for sea fish.

Next to the man, there are two women in bikinis, one of whom is blonde and blue-eyed, with three-dimensional facial features; The other has black hair like night, delicate and delicate, exuding a soft oriental beauty.

"It's peaceful."

The man sighed: "Since announcing his retirement, more than 30 years have passed, I seem to be an old man who is nearly eighty years old, right?" ”

"Your eightieth birthday in three days, master."

The blonde woman on the left said, "Happy birthday to you in advance, master." ”

"Don't."

The man shook his head: "There's nothing to celebrate, I'm not going to be happy, I'm even a little tired of this blandness, look at my young body, back on the earth, my children and grandchildren, I guess they won't be happy, I will only think about how this guy is not dead, when do you want to catch the equity of Xinghai Technology, why is it always in their way...... I guess there aren't many people who really wish me a happy birthday. ”

"Master, you're thinking too negatively."

The blonde woman said: "Xinghai Technology has not been stripped of a few core products, and the others are almost all divided, including hundreds of desert free cities and space cities, these huge wealth is enough to fill anyone's needs, in exchange for reliable and solid family affection." ”

"Only the 'knowledge bank' and the virtual game 'Galactic Era' are left, which must be in their own hands, and they are things that cannot be given up, and the rest can be given."

The man sighed: "The problem is that knowledge is priceless, and the economy driven by the virtual game "Galactic Era" accounts for nearly 30% of the world's GDP, and the two most valuable treasure troves, Alice, do you think you can trust human nature?" ”

This......

The blonde woman on the left fell silent, not knowing how to answer.

Suddenly, the hand sank, and the rod bent sharply.

"Hey, the fish is hooked."

The man's face was overjoyed, and he pulled the rod hard, and after more than five minutes of struggling with the hooked fish, a colorful sea fish was caught.

Weigh it, at least 20 pounds.

I looked at the bucket at my feet again, and it was already full of fish.

The man had to release the fish he caught back into the sea, "There are so many fish in this sea that I caught a bucket in a short time, and I can't even talk about a complete topic." ”

Forget it, don't drop it.

The man lowered his fishing rod and walked under a parasol on the white sand beach, where he lay down on a comfortable recliner.

The blonde woman carried the fish bucket and processed the fish inside, then moved the barbecue grill and lit a charcoal fire to grill the fish.

"Maybe it's been a little dormant lately, Nuwa, let's report a little bit about what has happened over the years."

The man on the recliner said to the black-haired woman standing beside him, half-squinting.

"Actually, not much of a major incident happened, master."

The black-haired woman introduced: "Here on Helfa Planet, we have completely completed the transformation of the environment and restored the natural ecology to a perfect state. ”

"In terms of science and technology, two big bang developments have been achieved, and the technology of the brain crystal people has basically been thoroughly understood, and it should have reached a level comparable to them."

"Thanks to the Galactic Era, we successfully built the first C-class battleship last year, and we have a strong enough main battleship."

"Many aspects have developed much faster than we expected, master, we have taken a good step."

"It's nature!"

The man nodded: "Don't look at the game "Galactic Era", how many resources it costs us, the data of the entire human civilization, the super server host covering an area of more than 100 square kilometers, and the power consumed by these remote servers every year alone is enough for the survival of 10 billion human beings...... In order to build the most realistic game, in order to keep the smartest players, Helfa Planet has invested almost all of its most valuable resources. ”

On the other side of the planet, even a superpower can't build such a huge and complex game.

"But then came the trouble that the game caused on Earth that was far bigger than we expected."

The black-haired woman said: "First of all, there is the 'wife withdrawal crisis', more than 50 million male players around the world want to embody the female characters in the game with the help of genetic coding technology, and of course, there are more than 10 million female players who want to turn the ideal 'husband' in the game into a real partner." ”

"In the midst of the appeals of countless players, in the face of moral and ethical resistance, finally a certain democratic country in the West opened the first opening, allowing genetically encoded humans to become real-world people after injecting game character information."

"Then there were several free desert cities, and in order to increase the population and improve the economic vitality, they also passed relevant bills."

"The 'game people' created by genetically encoded technology began to appear in reality, and soon the number of people exceeded 100,000, 1 million, 10 million...... It has gradually become a special group that cannot be ignored, bringing all kinds of taboo problems. ”

"It even sparked a small-scale 'gamer' rebellion, and the game "Galactic Age" was almost banned by the federal parliament several times."

"Finally, after more than ten years of turmoil, the withdrawal of the 'game character' function was completely banned, and the turmoil gradually subsided."

"Of course, "Galactic Era" has brought more than the so-called love crisis, economically, it has profoundly changed the structure of the global economy, so that the proportion of "virtual economy" has gradually increased;

"All in all, Galactic Age has become an indispensable part of the earth's civilization, and it is the core support of the planet Helfa, like a powerful heart, outputting endless nutrients and energy."

"Master, I have come to be convinced that games are not the product of so-called playthings, but artifacts that can bring endless benefits."

"Not bad."

The man nodded: "Life is a game, everything is in a game, who dares to assert that they are not a character in a certain game?" ”

As long as you have a good mindset and take it seriously, you can play well no matter what.

Suddenly, a scent wafted in.

The man sniffed and said with a smile, "Alice's fish is probably roasted, go eat it, Nuwa." ”
