That's right, it really was.
BaiBaiDu was an idol project launched in Whitty City, and Bai Leliu was part of its first generation.
The people of Whitty City never left their rooms to be "born," "study," or "work."
Their social needs were entirely fulfilled through a core technology controlled by Whitty City, known as "roaming."
Well, it was not as simple as the easily imagined "full dive" like "neuromancer"...
At the very least, it was not merely that.
If it were just "full dive," every city had researched it to some extent. After all, it was only virtual reality.
Whitty City's roaming was the "realization" of "virtuality."
After entering roaming, a Whitty citizen's room would be falsely expanded, creating scenes of the outside world and shaping them into reality.
However... there was no need to explain this part too clearly.
All that could be said was that, for the people of Whitty City, producing the next generation was never their responsibility or obligation.
Well...
Saying it that way might make Whitty City's people sound quite free. But to be more precise, the word responsibility could not be used.
More accurately...
Including the city administrators, Whitty City's residents were unconditionally entitled to use "roaming technology" for free.
But in exchange, aside from the city administrators, Whitty City's residents had no right to bear children and had to cooperate with room-service drones to complete genetic collection twice in their lives.
Although Bai Leliu, who had left the city to become a pilot, had gained something like that qualification, she had received the same education as Cong Yu since childhood...
So naturally, she had no desire to raise children either.
And naturally, she had no need to care about the price of becoming a magical girl.
And now...
"Stop talking in riddles."
