On the day before school started, Jiang Hui didn't sleep the night before. She only dozed off in her mental space for a few hours. She spent the rest of the time packing things and thinking about what else to buy. It felt like she was back in her student days. Well... she did live her life again as a student.
It’s not that she is nervous, but tomorrow is obviously a new beginning for her, a new beginning of life in this world, so she is still somewhat concerned.
So yesterday, for the first time ever, she did not study the holographic cabin and went back to her room early to prepare.
Speaking of the holographic cabin, it was also a miscalculation on Jiang Hui's part.
She originally bought this thing to learn more about the interstellar world, um... so that she could get in touch with higher-tech products that only exist in the interstellar world.
As a result, after getting this thing, Jiang Hui was almost unstoppable. He was completely immersed in the highly developed virtual world unique to Interstellar.
The interstellar world has basically realized all the holographic technologies that the Blue Star people have ever fantasized about. Even things that the Blue Star people have not imagined can be achieved by the interstellar world.
Moreover, the experience and senses of people in the holographic area are basically the same as those in real life, and they can travel thousands of miles without leaving their homes. Therefore, the interstellar people have developed a whole set of occupations in the holographic world, so that people do not have to go out to work in real time, and can support themselves at home - as long as they have the ability.
And because holographic technology is a virtual world after all, many things that cannot be achieved in the real world of the interstellar world can be easily achieved in the holographic area. Therefore, it is easier for people to gain satisfaction and realize their self-worth in the holographic world.
This sounds like a paradise for internet-addicted teenagers, otakus and housegirls.
Jiang Hui suddenly understood why StarCraft was so strict in managing the accounts of those who had not fully awakened, to the point of limiting time and area. It was because they were worried that minors whose worldviews and values had not yet been fully formed would be overly influenced by the holographic world.
After all, whether in the interstellar or on the blue planet, young people are the future backbone of the country. If these immature young people spend their time on virtual illusions and immerse themselves in the illusory world, then the country will not be far from being destroyed.
In his previous life, Jiang Hui was a relatively mature member of society and had long passed the stage of being easily tempted and immersed in entertainment.
Unexpectedly, she was attracted by the various entertainment methods and projects in the interstellar world and was unable to extricate herself.
It was not until she received the opening notice of Beska Intermediate College last week that Jiang Hui realized that she had been immersed in the holographic area for several days. Every time she entered, she completely forgot the time and had not studied well during this period.
Now that she thought about it, apart from the momentary joy of playing with the new technology, she had actually done nothing. The past week or so had not been as meaningful as the first few days she had arrived in Interstellar.
What have I been doing?! Jiang Hui reflected deeply on his recent decadent life.
In fact, it was not as serious as she thought. The holographic area of the StarCraft was not just for games. After all, it was a virtual social area open to all people, and it naturally had all-round projects, including work, study, food, music, entertainment, literature, and projects with interstellar characteristics, such as mecha, starships, simulated military games, super exciting simulated Star Wars, and so on.
Interstellar people who enter the holographic area through the holographic cabin can freely set their own appearance and even gender, and then choose to move freely in the nine basic domains of the holographic area.
They can shop in the holographic area, taste delicious food, and customize beautiful clothes to wear online. They can also work remotely through the smart platform built in the holographic area, and there are also various large-scale game projects for them to relax.
Among them, the most popular area among the awakened is the simulated mecha battle area. Many awakened people will take the initiative to initiate battles here, and the battle area will also hold mecha battles of various sizes on time, not only individual competitions but also team battles. The winners have the opportunity to obtain bonuses provided by the organizers, and even study opportunities in colleges and universities.
The former is naturally Jiang Hui's main activity area. She spent a lot of time trying out the various functional projects in the holographic area, experiencing food, clothing, housing and transportation, and also played several of the most popular holographic games in StarCraft.
She had only been to the simulated mecha battle area once. It wasn't that Jiang Hui had no interest, it was just that the place was not accessible to ordinary people, so she couldn't help but go there on the first day.
As a result, once you enter there, you will see tall and strong men everywhere. And I don't know if it's to give yourself courage, but almost everyone here is set to look fierce and difficult to mess with, which makes Jiang Hui, who has not been adjusted at all, look like a malnourished cabbage, out of place and quite stressed.
Of course, Jiang Hui also knew that the holographic area was subject to technical limitations. Except for the simulated battlefield that allowed the transformation of mental power, ordinary people were not allowed to attack each other.
Moreover, mutual attacks on the simulated battlefield are also restricted. After the opponent admits defeat, they are not allowed to continue attacking, let alone killing the opponent, because this may cause mental disorder or even brain death in the real life of the awakened. If someone does not believe in evil and insists on violating it, they may receive a ticket from the holographic patrol, and in serious cases, they may be detained in real life.
So she actually doesn't need to be afraid. She may still encounter criminals in real life, but the holographic area is basically under comprehensive surveillance, and the behavior of all interstellar people who have uploaded their consciousness is almost transparent to the entire main brain system.
But as soon as she came in, she was not sure whether she was being targeted or for some other reason, but before she could even see the scenery of the area clearly, she received more than a dozen challenges.
Jiang Hui:?!
Then, before she could click "reject", another round of challenge posts came in, and her backstage was immediately flooded with them. Did she stir up a hornet's nest or was her name too arrogant? But it was none of those things. Her ID was called "Zhizu Changle Le", a typical middle-aged group style. Even her profile picture was a regular landscape picture, and her appearance was set to be that of an ordinary passerby with average height... Could this provoke malicious intent from others
Jiang Hui didn't quite understand and was greatly shocked.
Or is this place so welcoming to newcomers? But the problem is that she doesn't know anything about mecha combat, and if she really accepts it, she will be tortured.
So as she looked at the increasing number of challenge posts, she was so scared that her hands started shaking and she just quit the zone.
This world is really too scary. It would be more comfortable for her to stay in the ordinary area, enjoy the scenery and eat delicious food.
Then Jiang Hui spent the last week before school started in the holographic cabin and browsing youth forums.
After waking up from the spiritual space and getting a good night's sleep, Jiang Hui sorted out the things he would need for school and stuffed them into the space button, ready to start school tomorrow.
