Chapter 1701: Chapter 1701

(Modify later) With the gemstone exports and high-end tourism, it’s imaginable that Zone 019 should be a relatively prosperous district. Some of the photos on Beneath the Dimension also reflect this, meaning it’s a place very friendly to the wealthy.

As for the station, Green Sunshine is actually a realistic description. It’s said that in some areas of Zone 019, due to geological activities, many cracked ravines exist. Some evolved unique species underground release special substances, which ascend into the sky with the airflow and form a thin membrane at a sufficiently high altitude. When sunlight passes through this membrane, a magical optical phenomenon occurs, turning the sunlight green.

This is the origin of the station’s name.

Relying on this Green Sunshine, the area around the station gradually evolved into a tourist city, attracting countless visitors every year.

It’s worth mentioning that security here is very good. To allow the wealthy who come on non-player trains to spend safely, every tourist city in Zone 019 is equipped with enough Combat Mech. Here, player brawls are not allowed, and if caught, the player faces a long prison sentence and eventual expulsion.

Of course, there is also an Identification System here. Once determined by mechanical eyes to be a disruptor of order, the Mechanical Being will lure players in various ways without human authorization, such as blocking transportation or directly altering the destination of travel companions until the person is surrounded by Mechanical Beings or players. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹~𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮~𝚗𝚎𝚝

Being able to kill without leaving a trace is another matter.

Every year, this place receives many people who come specifically from other districts to spend, so not only is tourism expensive, but some consumption within the district is also very costly. The poor are not welcome here, and the ample firepower and player configurations allow people here to freely express their dislike for the poor—discrimination is justified. Many players who have been here mentioned the term “contempt chain,” to put it bluntly, if your clothes aren’t classy enough, even passing dogs will roll their eyes at you.

However, when such discrimination is justified and publicized, its adverse effects are reduced. It’s just like everyone has money; the difference is only whether you use a pure gold plate or a pure silver plate for lunch. So the conflict between rich and poor in this district is not so sharp.

There are no real poor in Zone 019 itself. The welfare of the locals is the best; the District Government can support them without working for a lifetime. Medical care, education, childbirth, etc., are all subsidized by the government. To obtain better welfare, one only needs to abide by the law and have as many children as possible.

The “as many as possible” children here do not mean forced childbirth, like deducting welfare if you don’t have children, but encouragement. Whether or not to have children is not something the government intervenes with too much; instead, it focuses more on improving family happiness. So from birth, people here receive a good education in inquiry and of course train players, providing safety for them.

Such a good place would logically attract many outsiders, but Zone 019 is very strict about admitting foreign populations. To immigrate, one must pay a substantial fee, and once you become homeless and start wandering the streets, Zone 019 will find ways to send you away.

Some may think that since people in Zone 019 don’t have to work, some trivial, complex tasks still need to be done. Even if Mechanical Beings can replace most manual work, the technical development related to mechanical manufacturing or core components can’t all be left to robots. However, Zone 019’s solution is to buy directly.

That’s right, buying from other districts, being rich enough, purchasing in the name of the District Government from other districts or game bases. Many are willing to sell weapons or high-tech products to districts without “ambition,” also providing technical guidance.

From this perspective, successfully immigrating to Zone 019 is equivalent to entering the ideal paradise for humans.

Indeed, many players on Beneath the Dimension also expressed their desire to stay in this district, but constrained by a thin wallet, they can only leave with regrets.

This looks like a perfect district, but among them are Tickets instance, a random instance, opposing the peace and tranquility. If Zone 019 has strong control, it will certainly hinder players from clearing the instances.

After learning some content about the instance, Xu Huo finally closed the personal panel and took out Doctor Zhang’s Wisdom Sphere to play.

“This thing looks very familiar,” the hat player suddenly said.

“Really?” Xu Huo didn’t raise his head, “Have you played it?”

The hat player waved his hand, “Playing this kind of Wisdom Sphere requires Spirit Evolution, I can’t play it, only seen others play.”

Xu Huo’s fingers paused, “This sphere was lent by a friend of mine, said to be made by a very impressive psychology professor, is what you saw as well?”

“Not exactly,” the hat player smiled, “it’s a doctor. My friend’s daughter is a high-IQ child, and there is a doctor at her school who is skilled in spiritual power control. This Wisdom Sphere was made by him for the children to play with.”

Xu Huo finally raised his head, scrutinizing the other party seriously, “Do you know which district? I happen to want to buy more of these Wisdom Spheres.”

“It was several years ago, whether the school is still open is uncertain.” The hat player met his gaze, “Do you know that teacher?”

“I would like to visit a predecessor who made this kind of Wisdom Sphere.” Xu Huo placed his hand on the table.

“Oh, then you are a step late. I heard that the teacher has already passed away,” the hat player said, “He was seriously injured thirty years ago, and later afflicted with a severe illness, travelling only by wheelchair. Three years ago, I heard about his funeral from my friend.”

The words “burning money,” “luxury,” and naturally also “contempt chain,” etc.
