Chapter 3 Suffering from a lack of culture
"Order?"
Jiang Linchuan looked at Florence in surprise. He almost forgot how long it was last time he received the order.
The headband-like items hanging on the Florent's cutter-shaped mechanical claws are called domain linkers, and can enter the virtual domain through the reserved neural link interface.
Jiang Linchuan did not go to pick him up immediately, but reached out and pinched his nose bridge and asked, "What time is it now?"
The prompt light of Floren's skeleton-shaped body flashed a few times, and the mechanical sound of Modai's emotions sounded: "Master, it's Eternal Night 3787 now, at 9:15 am on March 12."
"It's already nine o'clock."
Jiang Linchuan grabbed a coat and draped it on his body, got up and went to the only window in the room.
Swish!
As the curtains were opened, the window was pitch black. But looking into the distance from him, all kinds of tall buildings jumped into their eyes. Colorful neon lights flashed between the buildings, and you could vaguely see the virtual singer still dancing tirelessly.
This is the city he has lived in for more than ten years. It has many names, such as "The Last Pure Land", "Human Homeland", etc.
Among the many names, the one that is most recognized by people is "City of Eternal Night".
This city built with steel and concrete is shrouded in the night all year round. Perhaps because of the heavy life, or because of the lack of light, people living in this city are very depressed. It is said that extreme events broke out a long time ago.
To alleviate this situation, Neuron Information Technology, one of the three giants in Eternal Night City, launched a "virtual domain".
The ‘virtual domain’ has all the beautiful fantasies about life, including sunlight, forest, sea and grassland, where people can enjoy all the conveniences that they cannot enjoy in real life.
Of course, the prerequisite for enjoying all this is that you have to have money.
When talking about money, Jiang Linchuan couldn't help but feel a toothache.
More than ten years of hard work have given him a foothold in Yongye City. Although this cottage in the slums is not big, he is very satisfied.
Jiang, who has a family and a deposit, has become a man of a wanderer. He believes that life is not just about the fertility in front of him, but also about the poems and the "virtual domain"... money is waiting for him to discover, so Jiang Linchuan, who is eager to find out, so he spent a lot of money to apply for a store in the "virtual domain" and also spent a lot of money to purchase this second-hand domain connector.
However...
The virtual domain faces the middle class or above. The low-end parts made by his mechanic apprentice are not the target products of those people at all. The only few orders since the store opened are not enough for him to pay the Internet fee!
I suffered a loss of being uneducated!
Jiang Linchuan, who was so heartbroken that his expression was distorted, covered his chest and pulled the curtains with hatred.
"Damn 'neurons', you can eat people without spitting bones!"
He cursed and walked towards his workbench, and when he passed by Florence, he couldn't help but glance at the 'domain connector'.
Um...
What if it is a big business order?
He slowly stopped and after a fierce psychological struggle, he finally lowered his head to greed...life.
Taking the "domain linker" from Florence's mechanical claws, Jiang Linchuan put it on his head. Florence's compact clamp-shaped mechanical claw flexibly clamped the joint, and walked behind him and inserted the joint into the neural interface located at the back of his neck.
drop.
A dark blue light band lit up in the middle of the black screen of the domain connector.
Jiang Linchuan looked down at Florence: "Don't use high power to charge yourself during my network connection."
Florence's mechanical claws stumbled, and the signal light flashed on his round body: "Electricity..."
"I'm so powerful. If my big business is blown up because of short circuits, I'll take you off!"
After saying that, Jiang Linchuan pulled down the domain connector, and the black screen just covered his eyes.
Florence retracted his mechanical claws and looked at Jiang Linchuan blankly, then quietly rolled to his socket, and the red signal light flashing on the surface gradually dimmed.
......
"As it has been 93 days since you left the 'virtual domain' last time, you are welcome to return."
The pleasant female voice cheered Jiang Linchuan up, the picture in front of him changed rapidly, and flowing light blue codes passed through the void.
Jiang Linchuan looked ahead nervously, praying in his heart.
The code passing through the void slowly slowed down, and the female voice I heard before rang out again: "Sorry, the virtual domain is not resided for a long time, please recharge."
"Suppose you, uncle!"
Jiang Linchuan resisted the urge to withdraw and sweared, pulling out his information panel.
The code flows in the void, forming a middle-aged man with a short and medium figure with a kind smile on his face. This is his virtual image in the "virtual domain".
【Name】: Jiang Linchuan[Hidden]
【Citizen ID】: 342220010911
【Age】: 20 years old
[Emotional State]; Extremely poor [Emotional fluctuations are strong, it is recommended to go to the ‘Virtual Ecological Park’ to calm down. The sightseeing ticket price is 10/information coin once, please ask if you go.]
【Chip Information】: Type I Mechanic Chip [Junior]
[Assets]: 215.21 [Unit/Information Coin]
[Shop]: I heard that all those who consumed here have made a fortune (there is an order that has not been processed)
[Domain Remaining Time]: 0 (Whether to recharge)
Jiang Linchuan had a dark face and stared at the asset column with his eyes tightly.
The virtual domain links to a personal account, and what is displayed here is already all his assets.
Although 200 information coins are enough for him to live without eating or drinking for more than a month, but in a month...
This is not a joke. The most expensive thing in Yongye City is always all kinds of energy costs to ensure living.
After much thought, Jiang Linchuan decided to gamble for the order. If he lost the bet, he would have to go to his old business.
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and squeezed out two words from his teeth: "Recharge."
Then he quickly added: "Minimum amount!"
"Wow! Recharge successfully, deduct 100/information coins for personal assets, and the remaining residence time of the domain: 59:57...56...55..."
Looking at the time passing by quickly, Jiang Linchuan felt that what was passing by was his own efforts.
"Enter, coordinate center business district."
“The goal is to choose the center business district and wish you a happy life.”
The pleasant girl became more and more ethereal. The light curtain in front of him dissipated, and the garbled codes in the void flew towards him like a meteor, and his eyes were filled with a burst of white light.
boom!
His body seemed to pass through a thin film, and a square surrounded by tall buildings slowly emerged in the white light, and then all kinds of noisy sounds rolled in like sound waves.
"The shocking release of Chifei's third-generation energy vehicle will give you an extraordinary feeling. You can withdraw new cars tomorrow if you place an order today!"
"Recycling second-hand bionic body parts, the quantity is better..."
"The Blade Pioneering Group recruits new members, requiring you to be proficient in using various weapons and have certain experience in pioneering the field. Now you can get a dose of Type II enhanced serum into the group. The quota is limited, first come, first served."
Just as Jiang Linchuan was bombarded by various information, a despicable voice rang in his ears.
"Hey, brother!"
(Because it is still the new book period, I can only update two times a day, and wait for it to be released... Forget it, I'd better wait until the contract is signed before talking, please collect and recommend it.)
