The Same World
Lin Xiaowei read a certain statement in which book?
The more comfortable the environment, the more the aesthetic of the ethnic group tends to be gentle and delicate, while the more dangerous the environment, the more the aesthetic of the ethnic group tends to be tall and mighty.
Because a strong body can provide more and stronger protection in dangerous environments.
This tangible power cannot be provided by wealth or protection.
That is the biological instinct to yearn for powerful individuals.
Just as animals in nature usually prioritize strong individuals when seeking mates, in that environment, the instinct of the opposite sex drives them to prefer stronger individuals, which is also more conducive to the reproduction of individuals.
Because this world had been in a state of war for a long time, both men and women were very martial.
Under these circumstances, it's only natural that rugby would be so popular.
and,
Even on Earth, rugby is one of the four major leagues in a certain country.
After a period of preparation, and with the support of the consortium controlled by Lin Xiaowei, the rugby tournament has been underway for a month. After a month of selection and competition, two teams have made it to the finals. If they can defeat their final opponent, they will win a million Copper Coin.
This is a huge sum of money for the people in that dimension! Even for Lin Xiaowei, it is a considerable investment.
However, compared to the potential commercial prospects and future goals, this amount of money is really nothing.
Because Lin Xiaowei's real goal was never this competition, but the magical version of the Internet!
As for the competition itself...
Ticket sales, betting odds, and the involvement of various investors barely kept the event profitable.
The rugby final was held in the late afternoon.
At this time, most people had finished work and had more time for leisure. The betting shops around the stadium were also crowded with people. The magical imaging device that Lin Xiaowei had specially set up was also in operation, broadcasting the situation in the stadium.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Xiaowei took out her communicator and sent a message to her teacher. "Teacher, are you free?"
Master Kentji replied instantly, "I'm free!"
Lin Xiaowei: "I'm holding a competition here, would you like to come and take a look?"
Master Kentji: "Great!"
Not long after Lin Xiaowei put down the communicator, she sensed a faint fluctuation of Aether Energy emanating from not far away. Lin Xiaowei walked out of the experimental workshop and saw her teacher.
The teacher was still wearing a magnificent robe, each pattern on which was a condensed rune, capable of triggering the spells sealed within with the slightest thought.
His face was very smooth, and there were almost no signs of the passage of time on him.
His neatly combed long hair lay flat, making him look like a refined middle-aged nobleman.
Master Kentji greeted Lin Xiaowei with a joyful embrace, "Oh, Gwenia ~ It's been so long! You've finally remembered your teacher again!"
Lin Xiaowei stepped back slightly. "Teacher, please have some self-respect."
The Master Kentji awkwardly withdrew his arm.
Lin Xiaowei asked suspiciously, "Why did you come so quickly... You weren't hiding in the Han Plane, were you?"
Master Kentji immediately retorted sternly, "How could that be! I'm so busy!"
That's what he said, but he still secretly used magic to burn the betting slips hidden in his sleeve to ashes and then opened a small Space Gate to throw them into the astral plane!
Damn it!
He lost a whole thousand gold coins while betting on football!
The financial system of the Han Plane differs from that of the Main World. It adopts a copper currency system, with Copper Coin being the basic monetary unit. Gold Coin are not the commonly used currency denomination; they are only used for larger transactions.
Master Kentji exchanged 10,000 gold coins when he first arrived.
Then he used divination magic to gather information and deduce the prediction of the match results...
And then he's been losing ever since! He hasn't won a single one of the fourteen matches in seven days! What the hell is going on?!
How could I, a legendary Legendary Mage, fail to win a single game using divination spells?!
Are you trying to slap me in the face?!
Master Kentji was so angry he wanted to bet on that team to cast a legendary buff, making them rout everything! Damn it!
His mind raced, and he quickly changed the subject, asking, "What competition did you call me here to watch? What's going on in the workshop behind you?"
He peered inside, his curiosity piqued by the novel gadgets Lin Xiaowei had come up with! He couldn't help it; his apprentice always managed to surprise him!
Lin Xiaowei then led her teacher into the back workshop and began to introduce the disassembled photography equipment that was being studied.
certainly,
Lin Xiaowei didn't reveal the core components. The manufacturing theories of many of these components were based on the knowledge Li Yao had transmitted to him. He would only compare the equipment he manufactured with that manufactured on Earth's industrial production lines when his research hit a bottleneck.
After explaining the functions of these things in general,
Master Kentji asked with a hint of doubt, "You seem to have a purpose in making these things... it's not just to preserve these effects, is it?"
If that's all there is to it, then the "Image Recording Device" created by the mage would have a similar effect.
Lin Xiaowei said, "Two aspects."
She held up one finger. "First of all, these devices will be used to connect to the Internet. I hope to be able to broadcast the game in high definition so that people everywhere with internet access can watch our matches!"
Kentji thought for a moment, not quite understanding. "What's the point?"
Attract viewers of all races?
Then let them place bets and make money? No, it can't be that simple.
Meeting the questioning gaze, Lin Xiaowei replied, "Do you think the Main World has a large population right now? Can the Main World's resources support an even larger population?"
Master Kentji: "..."
The topic shifted too quickly! However, he still followed Lin Xiaowei's train of thought and replied, "In fact, the Main World is very vast, and it can easily support seven or eight times more intelligent races."
Lin Xiaowei nodded. "Yes, but why is the population of the Main World so small?"
Master Kentji's eyes lit up! He seemed to have grasped the core of Lin Xiaowei's behavior! So he replied, "Because of the conflict and war between races."
Lin Xiaowei nodded. "That's right. There are huge cultural differences between the various races in the Main World. In addition, the gods of the Upper Realm have been stirring up trouble among the various races. It was not until the mages gained the power of discourse that the war in the Main World gradually subsided, shrinking from a war that affected the entire Main World to a regional war as it is today."
But that's not enough! Lin Xiaowei said firmly, "I hope to eliminate the hatred between the various races in the Main World through my efforts. Of course, that's unrealistic—but I can find ways to redirect their hatred elsewhere."
Divide and transform the water, then divert and release the floodwater!
She gazed at the lavishly constructed arena in the distance. "I want to promote the ' Great Race Integration ' of the Main World."
It's not about unification!
It's about unity!
To truly realize one world, one dream!
