Facing the cosmic world in front of him, Lynn was surprised for a fraction of a second, and then regained his composure.

"Welcome to the Second World!"

A magnificent voice resounded in the void of the universe, and then, a figure appeared beside Lynn from virtual to real.

"Long time no see, Professor Coleman!" Lynn greeted with a calm expression, he naturally recognized the person in front of him, Dr. Coleman, the most prestigious scientist in the Federation in his previous life.

Lynn, who graduated from the College of Engineering, had the privilege of listening to each other's classes, and the two sides only had a few faces.

Dr. Coleman apparently doesn't remember the former student anymore, but judging by all the information he had seen from the space monument after entering Earth and being able to accurately name the 097841 recorder, there was some credibility in his previous words.

"This is the so-called Second World?" Lynn looked around, and he saw through the universe the moment he entered.

"Not bad!" Coleman nodded, his words filled with indescribable emotion. "Now all humans have entered the second world, where everyone can have everything he wants!"

At the same time as the words fell, scenes were presented in front of Lynn.

There are ancient battlefields of conquest and fighting, extravagant life with bright lights, and bizarre fantasy worlds, from which countless people are immersed and unable to extricate themselves.

Of course, these are not real worlds, and Lynn has long seen that the place they are in is a virtual space between the real and the unreal.

It's like the virtual universe he used to fool Harrov and others, but due to the huge computing power brought by the base stations all over the galaxy, it can be simulated at the quantum level to imitate the laws of the universe, and for the creatures inside, there may be no difference from living in reality.

"Can you tell me what has happened to the Federation in the past thousand years?" Lynn asked, puzzled.

He didn't understand how the Federation, which was already a third-level galactic civilization at that time and could barely achieve interstellar voyages, could fall to this point.

Coleman sighed before speaking. "Part of it was the internal war, and the other part was probably my fault......

"Internal war? Is it related to the useless? Lynn was acutely aware of this.

"Not bad!" Coleman nodded, and Lynn was able to say the word "useless", indicating that the other party was indeed the 097841 recorder.

The so-called useless is the self-deprecating contempt of the civilians at the bottom of the Federation, due to the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, involving all aspects, almost nine out of ten jobs have been replaced, and it has also caused the most terrifying unemployment rate in human history!

The federal response was to add a lot of meaningless jobs so that the people had something to do, and to give out 1,000 credits a month, just enough for one person's daily food and clothing, as well as some low-level entertainment.

With the productivity of a third-level civilization, it is still possible to meet the basic needs of tens of billions of people.

However, this only temporarily delays the conflict, after all, the terrible social class gap still exists.

And there is a second huge problem, which is longevity!

Due to the maturity of genetic technology, the life expectancy of human beings has been greatly improved, so that the high position has always been occupied by a small number of people.

A 20 percent concentration of a GM agent requires 1 million federal credits to purchase, and an average federal citizen would have to find a job and work hard for 30 years to barely save enough!

As for the more advanced GM agents, they are hardly available to civilians.

This also makes the change of power and wealth extremely slow.

This situation has divided the people at the bottom of the federation into three factions, and some of them have completely rotted up, completely abandoned their jobs, and relied on the monthly federal subsidy of 1,000 credits to live a flat life.

Some people work hard to forge ahead, and desperately climb up by any means, hoping that one day they will be able to become a big man at the top and enjoy all the good.

The other part of the people is constantly hovering between the two, unwilling to accept the status quo, wanting to change but unable to do anything, after all, no matter how hard they try, there are only a few who can stand out.

In his previous life, Lynn belonged to the third type of person, but his situation was slightly better, and with his exceptionally good results, he successfully found a seemingly important but meaningless job - recorder!

On the day she joined the company, Lynn knew that she would most likely stay in this position for the rest of her life......

However, the work of the recorder also gave Lynn a deeper understanding of the predicament of the Federation, which was even more terrible than he had expected, and it could be said that it was only one torch away from change!

And this torch was soon lit.

Forty-seven years after his death, the war officially began, and it lasted only nine years before it was put to rest.

Lynn is not surprised by this, the upper echelons of the federation who hold control of artificial intelligence are difficult to defeat, which is why they dare to cling to their rights and not let go.

Of course, these revolts were not meaningless, causing great turmoil for the entire federation, and most importantly, the contradictions did not disappear but showed signs of further expansion.

However, the curvature engine technology, which is regarded as a lifesaver by the federal leadership, has not been able to make a breakthrough for a long time, and the federal leadership, which cannot rely on interstellar immigrants to absorb tens of billions of unemployed people, has to find new methods.

"The new way they found was the Second World?" Lynn frowned slightly.

Relying on the Internet and virtual games to stabilize the situation and resolve conflicts was a policy that the Federation had been implementing before he crossed over, and it was very effective.

Because only a small part of the resources needs to be consumed, it can make people get a great sense of pleasure, which is the most important part of the [Civilian Entertainment Plan]!

Coleman nodded, agreeing with Lynn's speculation, and in the third year after the end of the war, with the improvement of consciousness link technology, the Federation began to vigorously promote the Second World, as a weapon to alleviate social conflicts and avoid the next civil war.

In particular, after the successful development of the emotional simulation device, there is almost no difference between the second world and the real world for humans who link their consciousness to the brain and are in the virtual space!

But the difference is that the resources inside are almost unlimited!

Here, anyone can experience the life they want and achieve things that they can't do in reality, whether it's becoming an ancient general on the battlefield, a dragon slayer warrior in a fantasy world, or leading an interstellar war.

The boundaries between reality and virtuality have been blurred to the extreme!
