After rigorous calculations, the Intelligent Brain issued another series of policies. Among them, the two with the most far-reaching impact were the "Monitoring Decree" and the "Regional Decree."
The Monitoring Decree aimed to further implement surveillance facilities—comprehensive monitoring across all of society, without blind spots, whether in public areas or private ones.
This did not have much of an impact on humanity as a whole.
After all, in the centuries of the Smart Brain Era, humans had long since been left with virtually no privacy to speak of.
The second Regional Decree, however, was entirely different.
In the past, whether before the Smart Brain Era or during it, aside from the ancient feudal dynasties and a few special periods, population movement had generally not faced many restrictions.

But after the Regional Decree was issued, population movement was once again restricted.
The Intelligent Brain stipulated that the movement of the population—or rather, the range of activity available to every Human Alliance citizen—would be closely tied to their own Citizen Credit Level.

Only citizens whose credit exceeded level six could set foot in the Adjacent Counties and
