Chapter 25: Fun, Isn't It? Will you play, right? Haven't played it, have you?
There is no overground iron on Yongquan Island, which is very unfortunate news......
But they still had to go to the Dead Sea area.
It's not because they really want to take a soak in the salt water. Rather, according to the information they received, the "Brokers" branch of Yongquan Island mainly occupies the tourism industry.
The real core business of Yongquan Island is that it can only be regarded as a drizzle ββββ monopolize the world's fishing industry outside the island.
Manganese nodules, deep-sea oil and gas, and hydrothermal deposits and other seabed resources...... It includes all kinds of coal, oil, and natural gas on the ground, as well as heavy metal resources including gold and uranium. As the only sky island with dragons in charge, they rightfully ate the fattest piece of cake.
Because of this, Yongquan Island does not need any particularly developed unique technology, nor does it need to monopolize any industry at all...... Because they have a monopoly on what is most important in this world.
That's the resource --
It's not just "energy", it's "resources". The daily needs of the other six empty islands are also provided by them.
It is precisely for this reason that the life "inside" of Yongquan Island is called a comfortable ...... The living atmosphere here is obviously different from other empty islands, and there is no sense of "rush" at all. It's like an ocean paradise, or a place to retire.
The faces of the people on the road showed a clear carefree and relaxed look.
Even on a weekday evening like Tuesday, there are many "baby fish" chasing and laughing in the river.
These fish-headed or fish-bodied children swim noisily past, stirring up bursts of white waves, or scooping up a puff of water with their hands and spilling it on their companions, or directly splashing on the "passers-by" walking on the road.
If you are on another empty island, you will definitely be angry if you are splashed with water for no reason...... However, the residents of Yongquan Island are completely unangry, and they do not even have the idea of avoiding it at all. Instead, they happily took the water and even happily said "thank you" to the children. Then watch as the waves fall in the warm evening light and shatter into countless waves of gold.
β¦β¦ When you think about it, it makes sense.
Because whether it's on the street or in the river, these people are very standard "aquatic species".
It has scales, fins, whiskers, or tails. For them, water is not a danger to be avoided, but an intimate necessity of life.
There are a large number of severe psychic disorders that look completely different from human beings, and at a cursory glance, the proportion is even more than 30%. In other words, one out of every three people is completely detached from human form...... The inferior even caught the real "mermaid" and swam through the river.
And those who have not yet departed from the appearance of human beings, and who only have some spiritual characteristics, are all aquatic products without exception.
In Happiness Island, only 1.5% of patients suffer from severe psychogenic disease. And the number of people who are willing to go out and show their heads is far less than this percentage.
γβ¦β¦ Did you find out?"
The inferior didn't speak, and a metallic sound came out of his throat: "You can't see cats and dogs everywhere, but you can't see them here......
"It's all seafood...... With very few exceptions, it seems to be tourists." Strangling calmly looked around, looking at the beautiful night scene.
"No wonder. They could instantly recognise us as travelers from other air islands. "The inferior should be the way.
"In other words, if we want to do something bad, it's easy to find out." Strangling narrowed his eyes, subconsciously remembering the path he had traveled and preparing for the escape that would come.
But to be honest, he didn't think he could run away here.
The roads here are all river ...... For people who can't swim, or who swim too slowly, it can be difficult to walk.
"Not necessarily ......"
The inferior looked up at the streets, pursed his lips tightly, and showed a serious expression: "Don't you notice, the biggest difference from the other Sky Islands?"
"What?"
"Camera, stupid lion. We've been walking for almost half an hour, and all I see is a set of cameras."
"Are you sure you didn't find out?"
"Impossible. Street View cameras are not something that can be installed in just one place...... Don't think of this stuff as a detective's kind of body pinhole camera. High enough, the angle covers as wide an area as possible, and there must be a place to run the line. I've reviewed all the places where surveillance might exist, but I've only seen a set of cameras......
"If it were in the style of Happiness Island, there would have been fifty or sixty of us on this journey. At least."
"In other words, there are a lot of blind spots here?"
"It's also great for killing......
The inferior replied softly.
As they spoke, they arrived at a rapid transit device called the "Waterway".
And the face of the inferior person became ugly to the naked eye.
I saw that the so-called "waterway" was a huge magnetized water pipeβββ and its thickness was probably enough to fill the "ground iron" directly into it.
And there are many people inside, wrapped in transparent bubbles, galloping through it.
They all held a crossbar in their hands and sat peacefully in the bubble...... It even looks a little boring. Looking at the empty eyes that were obviously distracted, it was like looking at something in front of them.
But when the inferior looked at that thing, he only felt that his face was blue, cold sweat broke out on his back, and his scalp was faintly numb.
It was like a balance bar that you were holding when you crossed a single-plank bridge. It just held up the tough bubbles, gliding through the waterway at high speed like a rapid.
And some people will suddenly start filling their bubbles when they are about to arrive here.
As the water flows into the bubbles, their bubbles begin to sink and their positions begin to sink. And just as they arrived at this station, the bubble happened to change track and enter the side road.
It's like a vending machine full of round candies and a capsule toy machineββββ just drop a coin and drop one.
Before the bubble was halfway through the water, they rolled down the sideways. When the bubble falls into the pond, it bursts on its own. The passengers put the pole in their hand into a box next to it that recovered the pole.
"If you're not careful, it's easy to choke......
Strangled asked with concern, "I can swim, but are you okay?"
It's just that in this slow and logical speech, there is a bit of encouragement.
γβ¦β¦ Yes. Isn't it a riptide...... What's the rapid? The project of that amusement park. I've played it too. γ
The inferior bit his back molars as if chewing on lion meat.
"Really? Have you really played it? And you didn't know you were going to be so seasick?"
Strangled Yin Yang asked angrily.
"I've played in Transcendental, but it's not a big problem...... But you, will you pay with a chip?"
The inferior said that he paid for the waterway "from Lake Michigan to the Dead Sea" through his mind. He received a pole from a fish-headed old man next to him.
It was very cheap, just a credit point - about 1/20th the price of their accommodation and 1/half the price of breakfast for one.
This is probably the way ordinary social animals travel, the inferior thought to himself.
He glanced back at the strangulation and chuckled. "Kindly" sent out a reminder: "Why don't your seniors teach you how to trade with people by paying money?" Friendly reminder, it is to open the "District Service" Oh......
"Of course I do." Strangler stiffened his face, still stiff-mouthed.
"-Fun, isn't it? Will you play, right? Haven't played it, have you? Hahahaha......
Learn from the lines that Russell said to himself before and that he remembered for a long time...... I feel that I will have a chance to say this sentence one day, inferior
He burst into a happy and triumphant laugh.
