Online Games: Carrying Trillions Of Mechanical Legions With You

The rest of the journey was uneventful.

Leaving the most dangerous area of ​​the frozen snow field, look at the mutated creatures along the way.

It's like being on a safari drive.

"Woo--"

Along with the long journey, the train gradually stopped.

Luo Li got off the train.

There are not many people on the platform.

Instead, there are unmanned and self-driving forklifts, cranes, and maintenance robots everywhere.

The air is filled with a thick~heavy smell of engine oil.

In the ear is the sound of rumbling machinery.

The entire train station is like a huge machinery factory.

Busy and efficient.

Go through the short hallway.

Passed by an unmanned cleaning vehicle.

Before walking down the platform, Luo Li stopped and looked up.

The sky here is no longer the familiar azure blue.

Instead.

It's a halo of light purple.

That is a symbol of the super large electromagnetic shield force field in operation.

As the only isolated island city located in the deepest part of the primeval forest.

The threats facing Yanar City are not only from the land, but also from the sky.

To a certain extent, the electromagnetic shield force field is the lifeline that maintains the city.

Get off the platform.

Not far away is the immigration office.

With the ticket in hand.

Luo Li quickly completed the formalities for entering the city.

"This is your ID card, please keep it safe."

The manager handed over a manufactured silver metal card.

Luo Li reached out to take it, and looked it up curiously.

This very textured card costs a fortune.

It includes a series of miscellaneous fees such as registration fee, city management fee, defense tax, etc.

Add up to reach the amount of one million gold rungs.

And even if you pay this huge sum of money that the bottom civilians may not be able to earn in their lifetime.

In exchange for permanent residency.

It is only valid for thirty days.

after expiration.

Either pay an additional fee of the same amount for the extension.

Or they can only be expelled from the city.

Turn the card over.

Luo Li saw on the back of it, annotated the rights of the holder.

"Purchase outbound train tickets (only for myself), pass through the whole city (except military restricted areas), do business, study, and register as a witcher."

His eyes narrowed slightly.

Luo Li's eyes stopped for a moment on the first purchase of outbound train tickets.

Keenly aware of the information contained in it.

Since it is possible to mark this matter as a right in a grandiose manner.

That said, in general, it's probably a no-no.

"Is it strictly forbidden for natives to go abroad?"

"It seems that the people here are not doing very well."

Put away the cards.

Luo Li retrieved the luggage.

I also rented a small van and checked my luggage to the hotel I booked.

He himself was not in a hurry.

Instead, buy a city guidebook.

Be prepared to wander around the city for a while.

left the station.

The flow of people outside suddenly increased a lot.

As far as the eye can see.

There are soaring skyscrapers everywhere.

Follow the instructions in the guidebook.

These super high-rise buildings are divided into two parts, above ground and underground.

Basically residential buildings.

Each building is an independent community.

The number of residents inside is in the tens of thousands.

There are various entertainment venues, shopping malls, police stations, hospitals, and even schools.

An ordinary civilian, probably from birth.

For more than ten years, he will not leave the building where he lives.

Randomly picked a residential building.

Luo Li found the entrance and walked in.

There is a ticket window at the entrance.

Tickets are required to enter or exit.

Ask for flowers......

The fare is 20 guinea per ticket.

Not too expensive.

But for ordinary civilians, it is not a price that can be consumed at will.

Obviously, this is an official measure of Yanar City to limit the range of population activities.

Enter the interior of the residential building.

The first thing that catches the eye is not the concrete wall.

But a wide lawn and flower beds.

Paths paved with white cobblestones meander among them.

Occasionally, several fountains are distributed among them, spraying clear water.

Farther away, there is even a small grove of four or five-meter-high trees.

On the ceiling, seamlessly connected screens simulate images of blue sky and white clouds.

With the artificial sunlight, and the breeze sent from nowhere.

Observe slightly.

It will be regarded as an open-air park that can be seen everywhere in the outside world.

Because it is a weekday.

There are not many tourists in this artificial park.

Basically children and adults who look after them.

only.

It is different from the playfulness of children.

At this time, most of the adults gathered in a corner of the park.

He watched the news on the public display with a slightly worried expression.

Luo Li approached the past.

stopped.

"Recently, the new year's census has been completed.

"The total population of the city of Yanar is 77 million.

"A decrease of 24 million from the previous year."

"To this end, the Supreme Consulate announced.

"Reduce the admission ratio of colleges and universities from 15% to 5%.

"The proportion of Revenant training is increased to 95% accordingly."

On Blue Star, the ratio of natural deaths to births is usually around 1:1.5.

Yanar city in just one year.

The population dropped from over 100 million to 77 million.

The reduction of more than 20 million people in the middle can only be abnormal death workers. .
