Chapter 397: Please Top Up
(PS: Forgot to press the scheduled release.)
Wu Pifu walked toward the town of the Sanctuary excitedly, but after walking into the town for a while, his light steps became heavy.
Mourning halls, paper money, mass, crying...
In the battle to rescue Chu Minghao, a total of more than 10,600 people from Gaia entered. By the time Wu Pifu returned to Gaia, the number of returned personnel counted was about 1,100.
The death and missing rate almost reached nine out of ten!
Everyone knows that if you go missing on the weekend, you might as well pray that you died in battle. At least if you die in battle, you only feel the pain for that moment. If you go missing and don't die... that is the truly terrifying thing.
So those who did not return were all treated as dead in battle. The government registered them, started national sacrifices, and if there were relatives and descendants, they would be given corresponding treatment and support, etc.
At the same time, if these people had friends and relatives who had already awakened, then they would naturally perform sacrifices and mourning for the dead personnel. The total number of Gaia humans now is only 300,000 to 400,000, and the death of nearly 9,000 people is already a very high death ratio. So Wu Pifu could see various forms and religious sacrifices and commemorations from time to time along the way, which made his heart heavy.
In any era, any civilization, any race, as long as it is an upward type, there is no lack of those who carry the burden forward. Their existence supports the backbone of this race and civilization, and is also the sinking bottom line of this race and civilization.
And cherishing them, giving these burden-bearers glory and inscription, instead of deconstructing and slandering them, is the attitude and behavior that an upward civilization and race should have. Otherwise, the civilization and race will inevitably decline and fall.
Wu Pifu walked through the streets with a solemn emotion. The people around naturally discovered this new presidential candidate, the second Super-Brain of the Human Government, and the number one hero of the Chu Minghao presidential rescue plan. This time, being able to have more than a thousand people return, Wu Pifu can be said to have made great contributions.
Everyone who saw him stood silently, paying attention to him, and continued their activities after he walked away.
Wu Pifu felt like sitting on pins and needles, so he hurried into Gao Zhanggong's guild building. At the same time, he also saw that a shop next to Gao Zhanggong's guild building had also been sold and was currently being renovated, and the name on the sign was two words... Company.
(Are they so brave? Directly called Company?)
Wu Pifu thought about these things, and when he entered the door, he saw Gao Zhanggong walking out in a hurry, still talking to several people beside him, and then he saw Wu Pifu. At the moment, he said to Wu Pifu: "I have something to do first, you can do whatever you want here. By the way, Captain Hao Cheng survived and returned. The time flow of the weekend scene she was in was abnormal, and it was only confirmed yesterday that she returned from the weekend."
Wu Pifu was stunned and said: "Oh, oh, oh, that's not bad... No, why did you specifically mention Captain Hao Cheng to me??"
Gao Zhanggong didn't answer and left in a hurry, which made Wu Pifu have a stomach full of words that he couldn't say.
The whole guild building was full of people in a hurry. If Wu Pifu hadn't confirmed that this was the Extraordinary Guild building, looking at the state of the staff here, he would have thought he had run into some securities company.
It wasn't just Gao Zhanggong and his subordinates who were so busy, but the entire Sanctuary, the Sanctuary City, and all Gaia humans were busy now.
When the Sanctuary was first acquired, Chu Minghao used this achievement, plus the previous achievement of upgrading the Main Brain, and his status as the previous presidential candidate to directly obtain the presidential authority in the Main Brain. Since then, the Sanctuary had actually entered a stage of great development.
As far as Wu Pifu knows, before Chu Minghao became president, to awaken the sleeping maintenance personnel or citizens, one needed to establish a sanctuary to get awakening quotas, which is what Wu Pifu teased as "drawing cards."
But the awakening efficiency of this was very low, and it was very easy to be affected by pollution sources, parasites, distortion curses, etc. that had already appeared on Gaia, leading to situations like Wu Pifu's awakening.
And after Chu Minghao had the presidential title, he could awaken Gaia humans through large-scale points, and their awakening locations were directly positioned in the Sanctuary, so they didn't have to suffer the pollution influence on Gaia. The only disadvantage was that it required a large amount of points to awaken, but as a unified human government, it was essentially a part of the Main Brain's underlying program structure. Even if the Main Brain was upgraded and there were more point options, the Human Government was still easier to obtain points than individuals.
So far, individuals can only obtain points through the Main Brain tasks in the Dream World, and the amount of points obtained in each task is not large, with a few hundred up and down being a good harvest.
The government side can obtain points through the Main Brain's quarterly "evaluation." No need to complete any tasks. The Main Brain will give evaluations based on the government's performance, government affairs, slackness, corruption, etc. every three months, and then issue corresponding points to the Human Government based on the evaluation. The amount is usually around 100,000. At the same time, the larger the scale of the Human Government, the more points obtained under the same evaluation level.
Simply put, this is the points provided by the Main Brain for all humans to share.
Currently, the upgrade level of the Main Brain is not high, and the role of points for individuals is only to host sanctuaries and sign contracts judged by the Main Brain. The Human Government side has one more option to use points to awaken Gaia humans on a large scale. However, everyone knows that points must be good things. In the future, after the Main Brain is upgraded, maybe it will replace credit currency and become the only currency for Gaia humans? It is precisely because points can awaken Gaia humans, and then the more Gaia humans managed by the Human Government, the more points obtained in each quarterly Main Brain evaluation, and the more points, the more Gaia humans can be awakened. This has become a virtuous cycle. So since Chu Minghao became the Human President, awakening more Gaia humans, reviving human civilization, and great development have always been the only core of the Human Government.
All this stopped abruptly until Chu Minghao was ambushed and exiled to the weekend. At that time, people were panicked, and various forces were fighting for power. In the dark, there were the company and the Human Revolution Alliance eyeing the Sanctuary covetously, so naturally, there was no possibility of continuing great development.
The busyness Wu Pifu saw this time was just the return of order, and the core of great development became the consensus of everyone again.
Wu Pifu had no interest in these. He rested in the guild lounge by himself until Gao Zhanggong returned after finishing his work at lunch. He looked at the leisurely Wu Pifu and said: "You are a presidential candidate, is it really okay to just slack off like this?"
Wu Pifu looked at Gao Zhanggong with an inexplicable gaze and said: "No, are you serious? You want me to be a civil servant and go to work?"
Gao Zhanggong was speechless immediately.
There are plenty of people who can be civil servants, and there is no lack of a large number of elite talents among them. Among the sleeping Gaia humans, there are many such talents, and the education level of the 29th century can produce such talents in batches.
But there are not many people who can enter the Dream World to fight. On one hand, they must have the courage to die at any time, and on the other hand, opportunity, mentality, combat ability, and extraordinary anti-pollution ability are all indispensable.
Wu Pifu is one of the two Super-Brains of the Human Government and a top human combat power. Not letting him enter the Dream World, but putting him in the Sanctuary to become a symbol of a force, or becoming an elite civil servant, is the biggest waste.
Gao Zhanggong poured a glass of wine and said: "I was busy and dizzy. It's actually not bad to see you so leisurely, which shows that we humans haven't encountered any big danger... By the way, this."
While speaking, Gao Zhanggong took out a box from his personal space and threw it to Wu Pifu: "The Chairman of the First Singularity Company sent it two days ago, saying that it has been solidified. This is the original, you can open the box through the Main Brain, and it comes with an instruction manual."
!
Wu Pifu was stunned and immediately overjoyed. He took the box and looked at it for a few times, confirmed that the box had no seams, and immediately said: "Main Brain, open the box."
"Judging... Judgment completed. Citizen Wu Pifu has ownership of the contract box, already opened."
Wu Pifu didn't have time to think about the term "contract box," and he saw the box in front of him disintegrate directly, revealing the object inside: a mobile phone and a document.
Wu Pifu immediately picked up the mobile phone and looked at it for a few times. He couldn't see any changes in this mobile phone, and it was no different from when he first obtained it. At the moment, he picked up the document and turned it over carefully.
"This mobile phone has been solidified through multiple singularity technologies and serves as the only anchor for the lost space-time in the real world."
"The solidification duration of this mobile phone is five years. After five years, it needs to be solidified again, or this lost space-time has already been opened."
"This lost space-time is in a semi-imaginary state and can only be filled by the essence of roots and root derivatives (sublimated bodies). Once filled, this lost space-time can be turned into a fixed-level Dream World, which can be determined by the filling magnitude. The more filling quota, the higher the Dream World baseline level."
"... Corrected, confirmed that Main Brain points can be used to fill this lost space-time. For specific quotas, please query the Main Brain."
"Dialing the phone number of this mobile phone can contact the internal information of the lost space-time. Each contact requires root essence or points as filling consumption. For specific consumption, please query the Main Brain."
The content on the document was not much. Wu Pifu naturally didn't understand those professional scientific terms and calculation formulas. He looked directly at the explanatory text at the end, especially when he saw that points could be used for filling and points could be used for calls, he was really overjoyed.
At the moment, Wu Pifu turned on the mobile phone directly. He didn't delay, pressed the phone number of the landline at home, and then the Main Brain's voice came from the mobile phone.
"This phone number is in arrears, please top up."
