The Original Seeker Chapter 459: 2 dimensions
Of course, the complete collapse of the financial system is actually not a big trouble for Yamato, who has been striding forward on the road of planned economy for many years.
As early as more than ten years ago, Serres, the high priest of the Sea Clan, had already seen that the economic development of mankind was actually dependent on globalized trade to a large extent.
So it believes that by hitting trade, it can very effectively create an economic crisis in human society and slow down their development.
So he ordered a large number of sea races to drive low-ranking likes to attack all ocean-going merchant ships belonging to mankind at any cost, in order to cut off the most important, the global maritime trade network.
Because of the fear of a tsunami that might reappear, as well as the sea clan who came to land and harass them in a hurry. Except for countries that are truly irreversible, most countries have moved their political and economic centers to the interior after the disaster, and coastal areas have become the front lines of the battle.
A variety of reasons eventually led to a sharp drop in maritime trade. Only the bulk of valuables that cannot be transported by plane will hire masters of the township at high prices.
This move of the Sea Clan is undoubtedly an extremely fatal blow to an island country like Yamato, which is surrounded by the sea and relies heavily on maritime trade.
Under this situation, the Yamato people, who had no choice, soon began to implement a material rationing system, stipulating the necessary living materials for each person's daily distribution, and reducing unnecessary consumption as much as possible.
A large number of bankrupt factories were taken over by the state and only produced the products needed to adapt to the new environment where various raw materials were in short supply. The whole country soon entered the wartime economic system.
Yamato, the bridgehead of capitalism, was like this more than ten years ago. It was forced into a planned economy by the cruel reality.
The crazy U-turn of nearly 180 degrees in the national policy is bound to be accompanied by countless sacrifices.
They have always been habitually crooked in the technology tree. In order to alleviate the extremely serious problem of more people and less land after the tsunami, many black technologies have been researched.
Not to mention the technology that specializes in reclamation and land reclamation, which belongs to the normal category, the Technology Development Bureau under the official leadership of Yamato has spent nearly ten years to toss a crazy technology such as the "two-dimensionalization of humanity". come out.
In the beginning, the effect they wanted was to make further improvements to the Huaya Federation virtual reality system, allowing some people's bodies to stay in the nutrition cabin, and then live in the virtual network most of the time.
Because once this technology is promoted, the material needs of the people living in the cabin will be reduced to the extreme, and the space demand will be almost zero, which can greatly reduce the pressure on the country.
Yamato has an extremely rich resource of spiritual stones, but after the sea route was choked to death, it was short of resources and could only pinch its nose and accept the high-priced raw materials jointly supplied by the Huaya Federation and the United States in order to maintain the country’s Normal operation.
At the same time, the price of a surprisingly large number of spirit stones in the local area is also crushed to death by the coalition, making it convenient for neighboring countries to do scissor bargaining and shearing wool round by round.
Although someone who has cultivated to a certain level of transcendence will gradually get rid of external dependence and evolution, and can get rid of the problem of eating by absorbing spiritual energy, ordinary people who make up the vast majority of the population still need to eat, drink, and consume.
What's more, the transcendents also have the desire to enjoy, so while importing bulk materials, a large number of spiritual stones are exported through secret channels in exchange for luxury goods from all over the world.
When the study was in its fifth year, the first batch of life-sustaining cabins was put into production smoothly. Thirty volunteers participated in the experiment and lived in the cabin healthy for nearly three months, declaring the success of the experiment. .
Subsequently, the existence of the life-sustaining capsule was made public by the Yamato government, but even if the majority of people did not live as they wished in reality, they still expressed considerable dislike for living in the virtual world. Few people took the initiative to register in Kyoto.
Only a few who hate daily boring work, like to stay at home all day, and accept this kind of thing happily.
To live on the Internet 24/7, without worrying about all kinds of problems in real life, in a sense, it is also a kind of benevolence.
It's a pity that a large part of the work in modern society can be done remotely via the Internet. I can't wait for a penny to split the two halves of the government. Of course, they will not be raised in vain.
These thoughts roam the virtual reality network. The guy who thinks that if he escapes into the life-saving capsule, he can't have to work, but he still can't escape the fate of becoming a social animal, just moving his office to the virtual world.
Two years after the existence of the life-sustaining capsule was made public, through various overt and secret efforts, more than two percent of the population in Yamato was either half-forced or lured into it. In short, it became one of them. A member of the.
Located in the underground center of Kyoto's life-sustaining capsule inland, two million physically dormant people gathered together. They "living" together in a virtual city called "New Tokyo".
This virtual city is like the shadow of a city on the ground, silently supporting the development of Yamato.
Naturally, with the life-sustaining capsule and virtual reality, some people want to go a step further~IndoMTL.com~ to explore the possibility of human beings completely free from the **** of the physical body.
The ghost king located in the ruins of the original Tokyo more than ten years ago, after being made into soul crystals by the mysterious lightman, a lot of residues were left behind, and these residues were slowly evolved into some unreliables under the guidance of aura. Spiritual ghosts.
These ghosts were brutally killed, and finally a handful of highly intelligent elites were born. They are called by the Yamato people-floating spirits.
The Yamato who is in urgent need of uniting all forces, ignoring the so-called different ways of people and ghosts, did not take much time to reach a consensus with them, and let them reintegrate into this country.
In the study of human beings completely free from the **** of the physical body, Drifting Spirit is undoubtedly an excellent research example. Baimo's avatar, Heixue, who stayed at the Yamato Technology Development Bureau at that time, also participated in related matters.
It wasn't until the eve of the outbreak of the Red World Rebellion that the plan for "informatization of thinking" got a little better, and Yamato couldn't wait to start human trials, but the results this time were disastrous.
Of the 100 experimenters, 31 of the brains exploded and died on the spot, 41 of them became lunatics with confused thinking, and 25 of them successfully transformed into "two-dimensional creatures", but they were just a bunch of lost All sane, unintelligible garbled.
There were only three people in total, and finally achieved the goal of the experiment. On the premise of maintaining normal thinking, they can successfully cut off all the connections with the physical body and become a real data life.
However, before the various research centers had time to analyze the experimental results, the Spirit Devouring virus broke out frantically. The research team composed entirely of extraordinary people was forced to disperse and hide in the deep mountains and old forests.
In the subsequent Red World Rebellion, the almost unmanned experimental field was destroyed by mobs. At that time, Bai Mo, who was able to save at the time, was also entangled by the Red World’s disciples, unable to control the clone, so the experiment ended. Nothing more.
