Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

The Ark never thought that the good man who never left anyone outside to spend the night in his own home and said later in the day that he was going to send guests home, would one day have a great conversation with a big man until late at night.

But this feeling of death in his hometown did make him feel extra friendly.

From Lee Gaoling, Ark learned some basic common sense of the era and some misunderstandings that might arise about the era from the perspective of a dormant.

“Rest tonight. ”

Looking at the time on the holographic screen, Li Gaoling continued to see the ark and said, “Early tomorrow morning, I'll show you a place to stay. I only have two days off this month, and I have to rush back before the next day. If you have any inconvenience, I'll try to fix it all tomorrow. ”

The ark was slightly stunned and said, "It's only halfway through the month. Are there so few holidays? ”

In theory, there should be more holidays in the future than in the past, right?

Li Gao Liang smiled embarrassingly and touched his head with embarrassment.

“Uh, this... how do I put it? Virtual reality technology in this era, it's kind of like that. ”

Ark: “…”

I always felt that Pan-Asian cooperative fleet, it was time to do a whole breeze operation...

Nothing to say overnight.

In the early morning of the following day, the staff of the Ark and Customs Department said goodbye and took their luggage, while also receiving a hand-painted greeting card from the staff.

The card is said to have been left behind by a little girl who was a passenger on flight N-177.

Her name was not left on the cover of the greeting card, just a short two-line thank-you message with a naive pen.

Thank you, Mr. Hero, for saving Lily and everyone.

Lily will tell the tail about you!

The back of the greeting card is a tall, short girl with two hands in her hand. The background is the sun, blue sky, white clouds, and a rolling lawn.

Though not particularly creative, it is full of childish imagination.

Close to his eyes, Li Gao Liang touched his jaw full of scum and said with interest, "I didn't expect to see paper cards in this era. ”

“I'll treasure it. ”

Folding the greeting card into his arms, Ark looked at Li Gaoliang and smiled and continued, “Time to go, Comrade Li Gaoliang, show me the world after 100 years. ”

“Has people's lives become better, and have the people of our time fulfilled their aspirations for the future? ”

Li Gaoliang grinned and said with a smile: "Ha ha, I'm not sure if everyone's ideals have been fulfilled, but I bet, the wonderful times of this era, you won't be able to see them all in a year! ”

Looking at the nearby airport gate, a glimmer of anticipation grew in the eyes of the ark.

“Then go to Jinda for a moment and see where I have studied and worked before, as well as my home...”

Wouldn't it be a little strange to say it was a house?

After all, he's still alive, but everyone thinks he's dead...

However, these insignificant little things are set aside for now, waiting for the future in a hundred years!

Through the spacious back door, the dazzling sun passed through the treetops and sprinkled on his heels.

Squeezing his eyes, he raised his head and his pupils quickly shrunk to a point of surprise.

What you can see is a tall building with no end in sight, and above that spacious six-lane highway, river traffic is like a rainbow between the tall buildings.

Magnetic hover!

Look at the speed. It's mostly self-driving!

Pedestrians in strange outfits come and go, and the dazzling holographic images are overwhelming. Track trains bypassing between buildings appear to be the main mode of transportation, and to compensate for the lack of lighting brought about by high-rise buildings, lighting systems in many areas are lit up even during the day.

Complex art is embodied in every corner of the street, like a gear of varying sizes and uniquely independent, running at its own speed and pace, yet in coordination with AI and order, everything is so uniform and orderly.

And if you wear AR glasses, it's just like crossing into a fantastic world!

The enhanced reality, like a cake wrapped in cream, is that buildings on both sides of the street are superimposed with a layer of oil painting filters, a virtual image that appears to be real, replacing people walking down the street.

These include Pokémon from the Fantasy World, and non-human creatures from a film and television production that you don't know… all look exactly like they do in a virtual community.

“Welcome to the 22nd Century - Earth! I'm sure you've been welcomed on Mars. ”

“… not. ”

Although Tiangong City is also a flourishing area, the compact minimalist style is slightly less familiar than Jinling Street, which is a large and well-established architectural style.

Of course, that's impossible, after all, the safe space on Mars is very limited.

Shot on the shoulder of the ark, Li Gaoliang smiled and said: "With or without it, what do you think of the sight you see? Is that the future you imagined? ”

The ark that took off AR glasses was silent for a while before five words jumped out of its closed mouth.

“This is so cool...”

Don't say it's a grand life.

Even as he witnessed the prosperity of the "Ring of the World", he could not imagine how a city could grow to that level and become more prosperous.

He kind of understood why Li Gaoliang would say that even if it took a whole year to see the beauty of the world...

At this moment, a greeting suddenly came from behind them.

“Hey, hey, wait...”

A spiritual young man dressed in some cyberpunks waved this way and called for a canoe and Li Gaoling walking down the street.

“Wait, you, are you really an ark? ”

Watching this asthmatic spirit guy, though sorry for his style of clothing, the ark took the temperament of his elders and looked at him friendly.

“Yes, why? ”

The man's face was full of excited expressions, like a prize-winning hand dance.

“Great! I'm a fan of yours. Can I take a picture with you? ”

Fans?

When I heard I was a fan, Ark Zhou suddenly laughed.

I had no idea that 100 years later, so many people worshipped themselves.

“No problem.”

“Wonderful! Please wait…”

The young man pulled a spherical drone out of his pocket and threw it gently upwards and saw it unfold a soft folding paddle tucked away in his stomach, hovering cleverly in the air.

Looking at this little drone, a slight expression of interest appeared on the face of the ark.

But from the look on Li Gaoling's face, this kind of thing is supposed to be quite ordinary in this world.

Put your hand on the shoulder of the ark, the young man's face showed a strange smile, skillfully comparing to a scissors hand against the lens.

“Come on, let's look at the camera and say cheese! ”

Ark: “…? ”

The drone buzzed lightly and captured this historic moment.

After the photo was taken, the young man skillfully extended his hand to catch the drone, smiled back at the canoe and patted him on the shoulder.

“Thanks, man. ”

He said, instead of looking at the ark, he looked at the drone in his hand and said excitedly as he left.

“Hundreds of years of old popsicles! Guess who I met! It's an ark! Brothers are watching, and they feel like they're pushing a 666 on the public screen! ”

A series of bullets drifted across the expanded holographic screen.

[Hot chicken anchor, terrible quality, reported!

666

Shit! Do you know who he is? The Ark Science Prize is named after this big man! You're in trouble!

[Virgin bitch, please get out of the live room, don't watch if you're upset.

[Ha-ha-ha, centuries-old popsicles, laughing! Focus!

[… (. • …………………)]

“You bastard...”

Looking at the young man who cared to speak to himself, Li Gaolington caught fire and was about to go forward with his fist, but he was caught in a hurry by an eye-catching ark.

He looked back angrily at the ark and said angrily.

“Leave me alone, I'll have to teach his parents a lesson today! ”

“Don't be impulsive, people are just kidding," Ark said with a smile, "Besides, I agreed to take the photo, let him go. ”

“Is this a joke?! Damn...”

I noticed something was wrong, and the spirit boy had already run away.

Watching the disappearing shadow from afar, though his heart was still angry, he could only loosen his fist.

It doesn't matter if it's just insulting him, he can't afford to waste time with a piece of waste.

However, that man offended the Ark!

It was from that era, and it was intolerable in any case.

Taking a deep breath, Li Gaoling calmed down and looked at the ship and said in a serious tone.

“You have no idea what happened recently… Listen, a great man was resurrected more than 100 years ago and happened to catch up with the megahijacking of Flight N-177. You are now the focus of the world's media, and we were walking through the back door of the airport, or you would be stuck in front of the airport by now. ”

“Anyway, let's find you a place to stay. You'll be fine these days. Don't go out, and don't go to any place where Kim Dae and you worked. Everything will wait for the wind to pass! ”

The ship shrugged its shoulders and had a less carefree expression on its face.

Indeed, it is.

In theory, he is now in his 100s. He has to be the grandfather of that guy. He can't do that much with a younger generation.

And before, he didn't care much about what ordinary people think of him, and now he doesn't.

A man can't represent an era, no matter how loud that man's voice is. And the times will certainly give him a correct and fair assessment of his name.

Moreover, what is the significance of social development?

Isn't that just to feed more people and hold on?

“... don't be too sensitive, by the way, what's going on with that N-177 flight? ”

“The identity of the hijacker, an air thief, is somewhat linked to the Pan-Asian cooperation in military operations in the asteroid belt a few months ago. The details are still under investigation. I don't know much about it. I'll tell you when I hear from you... How did you get out of danger? ”

The ark slightly diverted its gaze.

“I don't really want to remember what happened that day... can you give me some time? Or did you come here with a mission? ”

Li Gaoliang hastily said: "No, I was just asking! If it's not convenient, don't say it, I'm sure I'm on your side anyway. ”

The ark nodded and responded with a thankful smile.

“It's not very convenient to explain… you can understand that I got the help of a hacker. ”

“Hacker? ”

Ark: “What's wrong? ”

“Nothing… I just felt a little surprised,” Li Gaoling mumbled strangely, "Not without something like hacking, but now that quantum encryption and quantum communication technology are popular, this kind of person who uses security vulnerabilities to do nothing seems to be extinct in this era. ”

“Really?” the ark didn't explain, laughing and saying, “Maybe it has a way. ”

In the distance, the running spirit boy seemed to be playing off.

Seeing the live drone was like it had broken down, wandering uncontrollably around the sky, and finally, in his incompetent and angry gaze at the passers-by, he stuck his head in a side alley.

Lu Zhou and Li Gaoliang smiled and were ready to move on, but at this time, a faraway greeting came from behind.

“Wait...”

“Again? ”

Li Gaoling turned around and saw a foreigner with a long gutter nose running this way. He immediately stepped forward and blocked the front of the ark.

Seeing the man's face clearly, the ark hurriedly reached out and pulled Li Gao Liang's shoulder, reminding him to say.

“Take it easy, this is my... acquaintance, thanks to his help I can go home smoothly. ”

In fact, he was trying to say that he was a debtor, but thinking that he was a billionaire at least once, he still had to ask for face in front of the acquaintance, so he changed his mouth temporarily.

When he heard that Ark was acquainted, Li Gaoliang finally let go of his fist, but still looked at him with caution and had no intention of relaxing his guard.

“Take it easy... friend, I'm not a bad guy, let me introduce myself, my name is Leonard, I'm a professor of archaeology at Oxford University, and I've probably helped you dig up Professor Lu. ”

With his hands resting on his knees and breathing heavily, finally slowly, Professor Leonard looked up at the ark with white eyes and complained.

“I waited all night for you and was going to come to the customs office during the day to find you, and the staff there sued me that you were gone, and I rushed out... Shet, I borrowed at least 20,000 credit points from you, and you were gone and didn't tell me. ”

The boat looked a little awkward and coughed softly.

“Don't worry about that, I can't greed you with that little money and work with Pan-Asia--”

“It's a 40,000 credit point. ”

Li Gaoliang, whose index finger was drawn in the air and interrupted the ark's speech, pulled a payment code from the holographic screen on the bracelet and pushed it in front of Professor Leonard without saying anything.

“He owes you money and I paid it back for him, and now this has nothing to do with you. ”

Credit points for trans-Asian cooperation and those of the North Sea Alliance, although referred to in the same terms, are in fact two different currencies. However, due to the peculiarity of digital currencies, such as credit points, the exchange rate between the two remained essentially fluctuating between 1 and 0.9.

“It's... it's not about the money, I just want to...”

Probably guessed what Professor Leonard was thinking, and the ark sighed, bypassing a foggy Li Gaoling, walked up and patted him on the shoulder.

I know what you're trying to say, my friend. Thank you for helping me get back to my hometown over tens of millions of kilometers. You're the first friend I've met in my time, and I appreciate that friendship. I'll visit you in England when I get a chance. ”

Touched to look at the ark, Professor Leonard held his right hand tight.

“I'll remember what you said! Goodbye, my friend. Actually, I came to say goodbye! I'm flying back to England tomorrow. I'm not really looking forward to your reward or anything. I'm not afraid to tell your jokes. I grew up with no real friends, so... I hope you can remember me later. ”

“Although nothing has changed on this trip to Mars, I feel I have found something more valuable than an artifact. ”

From the holographic panel on the bracelet, an identity message was separated with an index finger, which Professor Leonard paddled in front of the ark, grinning.

“When you have an official ID card, remember to add my virtual community account… see you soon! Wait till I get a chance to pan-Asia, or you come to the North Sea Coalition for a tour, and we'll get together. ”

Leonard made a farewell gesture to the ark and then turned around and left.

The ark waved with a smile and watched his back go away.

Although the guy complained to himself all the way down the road, he could still feel, out of concern, the good intentions.

So just now, he secretly put something in his pocket, and I'm sure he'll be surprised to see it when he gets back.

Looking at the remaining 20,000 credit points in the middle of the sky, Li Gaoling mumbled a “strange person" and then reached out and collected the only holographic payment code he had paid for.

“Thank you, I'll pay you back after that. ”

Li Gaoliang said seriously: "You don't have to pay me back, the whole world is the result of your wisdom, and if you need me, I can give you all my property. ”

“You lift me up too much, never a booming era can be achieved by one person's strength," Ark chuckled, “and don't worry too much for me, how can I be a billionaire before sleep, even if a hundred years is really a little long, but it won't be poor enough to fall into the streets. ”

The task this morning was mainly to help the Ark find a place to stay, and Li Gaoling probably taught him how to connect to the city cloud using a personal terminal and find properties nearby that were being rented through the city cloud.

Although intermediaries are also present in this era, the space for survival has been compressed to a very small extent.

The vast majority of information resource needs can be maximized in virtual communities.

The point-to-point service of bridging by AI has almost minimised the cost of personal user access to information, and the margin of profitability for differential use of information has become negligible. The vast majority of real estate intermediaries operate mainly high-end properties in this era, and the value of their payments is reflected mainly in quality ancillary services, rather than in the use of information advantage pits for kidnapping.

In addition, the Ark has learned from Li Gaoling that since the 1970s, the vast majority of high-rise homes in the city centre have not been sold to private individuals, but have been developed and operated by leasing companies under the supervision of the local government, equivalent to a disguised public rental.

After all, the current floor is getting higher and higher, and the inability to move is a hundred or two hundred floors up. If the traditional property rights method is still used, and the future house demolition and facilities are upgraded, all kinds of trouble will come up.

It is obviously unrealistic to expect the market to be able to allocate resources perfectly from invisible hands at this time. The lessons-learned pan-Asian cooperation simply removed this piece from normal market transactions.

At least in Pan-Asian China.

In addition, some families in this era who focus on quality of life choose to build their own homes by purchasing renewable, limited property land for private residential use in the suburbs.

Yet more young people choose to live in a more fully equipped city centre, rent a modest apartment, and focus more on the spiritual world - that is, the virtual community.

As Lee Gaoling put it, virtual reality technology in the world, and it has reached an unimaginable level.

The infinite expansion of people's imagination on computers perfectly fills the lack of “effective creativity" of computers while, in turn, meeting the spiritual needs of people.

Many electronic works of art erupted in the early 22nd century, arguably in the form of blow-outs, and the prosperity of science and technology, while broadening people's living spaces, contributed greatly to the cultural prosperity of human civilization.

And that has been demonstrated in many ways.

After hearing the news, there was also emotion in the heart of the ark.

He had no idea that the brain interface that he had created had such a huge impact on the world.

So much so that people of future generations, both living and valued, have completely changed the way they are under the influence of the latent acquiescence of new technologies.

Several properties were compared and, after a field trip, the ark eventually featured a large 200-square-metre stratum on the 100th floor near the second ring of the city.

Modern minimalist décor temporarily relieves his eye of “light pollution”.

The rent does not include utilities, about 4,000 credit points for a month. According to the purchasing power of an ordinary car at 100,000 credit points in this era, this rental is a little too expensive.

However, this price is good value for money relative to its amenities and location.

The Ark was originally trying to pay for itself, but Li Gaoling said he wouldn't do anything and insisted on paying him a year's rent and a two-month deposit.

Nevertheless, the Ark had to accept the goodwill and take note of it silently in its heart, intending to have the opportunity to pay him back twice as much in the future.

Since Li Gaoling was on temporary leave to return to Earth, he had to return to Lagrange Space Base before tomorrow, so he did not stay here more, left his contact details and agreed to reunite next time before rushing to Jinling Sky Airport.

Looking at the empty modern apartment, the ark sat on the sofa and suddenly there was something in its heart.

Clearly back on Earth.

But it always felt like something was missing.

He knew that the name of the thing was Family, and he just didn't want to think about the unrealistic things.

Unlike the soldiers of Li Gaoling, as ordinary people, there is no “reason” to abandon the relatives, friends, and happiness of that era to a completely unknown era.

Especially after seeing the last words you left behind...

To be honest, if he hadn't found the dormant compartment, he would have thought he was dead.

Faced with an empty living room, the ark took a deep breath and prayed silently in its heart.

“I hope you have had a peaceful, prosperous and happy life in those days. ”

“… whether you are proud of my name or not. ”

“I'll always love you. ”

Sucked his nose and the ark lowered its hands.

As for visiting his descendants, he was quite paradoxical about the matter.

If they want to see themselves and hear that they are still alive, they should be proactive in contacting themselves.

And if they don't want to see themselves, they don't seem to have to interrupt their lives.

After all, not everyone would hope that their peaceful daily lives would be broken by an ancestor who never knew where to come from.

“Speaking of which, there is still a meeting this afternoon… is it the Frozen Rights and Interests Foundation? ”

Operated a weird holographic panel designed by the UI, the Ark sent its address to Ms. K, the person in charge of the reinstatement process arranged by Chairman Li Guangya for himself.

Not for long, a row of message windows popped up on the holographic panel.

[Meet me at 3 pm.

That's a very simple answer.

But it tastes pretty good to him.

Ark boats don't like the bureaucratic red tape that affects the efficiency of things, and see that they should be well suited to living in this era.

With that in mind, the Ark replied with an "OK" and then drew another index finger, turning off the holographic panel.

According to official officials of the Pan-Asian Cooperation Foundation, whose lawyers were able to help him obtain an advance payment from Pan-Asian Airlines until his citizenship was restored, the Foundation is said to contain free and trustworthy legal services.

I didn't expect to leave a legacy for the future, I actually used it on myself, and the mood of the ark can't help but be emotional.

Looks like it's okay to do more good, but it's still a little good.

I don't know if I'll ever use my old virtues on myself.

I felt a little hungry, just as the ark was about to get up and go to the kitchen to find something to eat, the door suddenly rang a crisp doorbell.

“So soon? ”

Slightly surprised, the ark walked to the entrance and opened the door with its hands.

However, the result was unexpected.

Not a lawyer or salesman in a formal outfit with a big back combed and looking skilled and reliable, but a young and beautiful girl standing at the door.

She was wearing a white coat that draped down to her knees, and she was not wearing a year-old Golden Ring Institute of Higher Studies ID card on her chest.

The sight of the ark fell on her face, trying to identify who she was. For some time, however, it was not possible to match this face with the name of the memory.

An unspeakable affinity makes it difficult to be hostile to her, except that the sophistication of five officials who hardly belong to humankind makes one wonder whether she is humans or elves of the fantastic world.

However, the Ark no longer has time to think about it.

The moment I saw myself, the stone-like eyes instantly stained a layer of water mist with tears.

There was no time left for him to say hello, and the next second the strange girl jumped at him, a hand fell on the floor of the front door.

“Master!!! ”

“ ”

The canoe, which had fallen on the floor, was forced to face off and had no idea what was going on.

What kind of scam is this for a new century that targets frozen people?

Or is it the same kind of guy he met before who's good at acting arts?

But shit, this guy's got a lot of strength!

He obviously looked at the head without his height, and the plate was a petite type, but he felt like he had been hit by a tank, don't say struggle, the moves couldn't move.

Two pieces of temperature-covered silicone on the face, and the ark took three seconds to think, what the hell is this?

However, until he was almost fainted, he didn't understand what kind of situation he was in...

(Today is still two in one, no more chapters. It's almost New Year's Eve and my family is getting busy, and I'll try to keep the update until 10: 00. Sometimes if it's a few minutes late, everyone will understand too ~)
