Song Xiaozhu watched in disbelief as two new names appeared on her friend list— Fan Cang and Mu Qing.
"!!!"
As if burned, Song Xiaozhu threw her personal terminal onto the Workbench.
She just wanted to try it out, but it actually worked.
At this moment, her hair stood on end, fearing that she might also appear on Fan Cang and Mu Qing's personal terminals— Mu Qing was a little better off, but what if that madman Fan Cang came looking for her...
Calm down, calm down!
Song Xiaozhu took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.
This ability to add friends is most likely related to the Workbench.
Song Xiaozhu put away her Workbench, reopened her personal terminal, and found that her friend list was empty.
Fan Cang, Mu Qing, and Lu Xiaofang all disappeared without a trace.
Fortunately, it's not a big problem.
She was confident in the Synthesizer's capabilities and wouldn't expose it.
Song Xiaozhu didn't rush to bring up the Workbench, but instead checked her personal terminal in "normal mode".
Without the Workbench, this thing instantly became Blank machine without a card; most of its functions were unusable, and clicking on anything would bring up a dialog box saying, "Please connect to Skynet."
This "Skynet" Skynet must be the "base stations" that maintain personal terminals. I wonder which group it belongs to?
Song Xiaozhu's mind involuntarily flashed through the names of China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom...
Yes, in this anarchic world, the power of zaibatsu (financial conglomerates) is terrifying.
Besides a friend list similar to an address book, the personal terminal also has messaging, camera, and photo functions.
There was no app store, and Song Xiaozhu didn't know where to download it.
Lu Xiaofang stated that trade could be conducted through personal terminals. How exactly would this trade be conducted?
How do I download the app for this?
Do we need to connect to Skynet first?
Song Xiaozhu didn't know how ordinary people accessed Skynet, but she seemed to be able to access it through Synthesizer, and this access was quite mysterious, somewhat like that of a "hacker".
Song Xiaozhu checked her personal terminal again, especially the personal information section, and found it to be Blank. There was no number or name, only a continuous prompt: "Please connect to Skynet."
This is probably a phone without a SIM card; its functions are unusable, but it won't expose personal privacy.
Song Xiaozhu nervously summoned the Workbench.
She believed that Xiao He wouldn't betray her.
But she worried that she and Xiao He were too "ignorant," like a child holding a pistol, too easily hurting themselves.
cautious!
Be very careful!
Song Xiaozhu silently repeated it to herself several times before focusing her attention on her personal terminal.
The white mist on the Workbench acted as a medium, "entering" her personal terminal through her palm.
The personal terminal no longer prompts "Please connect to Skynet ", and those three names have appeared in the friend list.
Song Xiaozhu opened her personal information and found that, just like when the device Blank, there was nothing there.
It has no number and no name.
She clicked on it, and a dialog box popped up. "Please enter your name."
Song Xiaozhu entered a word - He.
It's done.
Any pseudonym is fine.
No wonder he's a "hacker".
Song Xiaozhu blinked, then clicked again. A dialog box appeared. "Change current name?"
You can even change your name.
Being a "hacker" feels great.
She didn't change it, firstly because it was unnecessary, and secondly because Xiao He actually asked her for Quantum Coin.
That's all, the pseudonym "" is quite good. It has both the Song character for wood and the Chinese character for "".
These vests belong to her and Xiao He.
Song Xiaozhu ignored the reaction of her "friends" trio after seeing "He".
With Skynet in place, it's normal for there to be hackers.
We're all seasoned outsiders in the quarantine zone now.
With the help of the Workbench, Song Xiaozhu continued to check her personal terminal. This time, there was a new button with the words " Skynet " written on it. Clicking on it led to an app store-like place, listing a number of apps.
Song Xiaozhu clicked on one and saw the details.
This was different from the app she had imagined; it was more like a "stall," a stall system in a game.
These various apps all have only two functions --
Buying and selling.
There are four types of currencies used in the transactions: Han-Tang Coin, Ten Nations Coin, New Han-Tang Coin, and Day After Tomorrow Coin.
The exchange rate for the four currencies is 1:1.
Song Xiaozhu could also glean some clues from these four types of currency.
These are probably the four major organizations currently in power. The Han-Tang Coin belongs to the Han-Tang Group, the financial conglomerate founded by her father; the Day After Tomorrow Coin is clearly from the Day After Tomorrow Society; the Ten Nations Coin is outside Song Xiaozhu's knowledge, sounding somewhat like the "European Union"; and then there's the New Han-Tang Coin, a new currency issued by the Han-Tang Group?
Song Xiaozhu glanced at her "wallet," and unsurprisingly, it showed zero.
You can't buy anything anymore, and as for selling...
Song Xiaozhu did find quite a few "orders," and she could provide the items that were being requested.
The most popular items are naturally " Awakening Stone," " Awakening Stone Fragment," and " Breakthrough Stone," as well as some that Song Xiaozhu hadn't encountered before—" Elemental Stone."
" Basic Chip ", " Specialist Chip ", " High-Precision Chip ", etc.
Next, weapons and armor must be produced by " Weapon Master " and "Equipment Master".
More basic items have a price range, while more advanced items are basically sold through competitive bidding.
Song Xiaozhu searched for a long time but couldn't find any information about purchasing tools.
It's a real shame that no one wants her six-piece tool set, which she's most skilled at using...
Fortunately, there are still medicines and clean water available—yes, the latter also has stable purchase orders, but the prices are not high, generally the price of bottled mineral water, around 2 yuan for 500ml.
Song Xiaozhu didn't care about the money; what she valued was the Trade Value.
Of course, it's also good to make a quick buck while you're at it.
