Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 576 Test
  "That is to say, it has something to do with shipping costs, right?"

  【Um. Looking through the history books, I think it may become an issue similar to the ‘salt policy’ in the past. The mining cost of salt itself is not very high, and the amount used by each person is not very large. But it is the same as many of your past problems - there are too many people. When there are more people, the demand will be concentrated, resulting in the need to transport salt over long distances. But the cost of transporting salt over long distances is very high, because everyone, regardless of age or sex, must eat salt. Every household must eat salt. The more people in the family, the more salt they eat. 】

  "Salt?" Such an analogy is really similar. Salt is an indispensable material for maintaining life - the Pure Land, and it may become like this in the future. Because if you don’t use Pure Land, you will actually have much less time than others.

  Because the situation is here - every inch of time, every inch of gold. If everyone spends money to buy time and you don't buy it, then you will lose money.

  "So, the question still lies in tests like Phaethon. The first thing we need to know is whether time will be consumed simultaneously."

  [This is actually basically certain to be the case. Because it is the main body that enters, the body's time will advance simultaneously as long as it is consumed inside. If a person stays there all day, he will probably be like those in the lower world, completing his entire life in two or three months in real time. Because he can burn off one year of his life expectancy in one day. 】

  "Hey guys, are you really buying time?"

  [I said a lot. But at least until you are promoted to heavenly being, everyone's time is still precious. Even if there are no side effects, I do not recommend that you open this mechanism to everyone for unrestricted use. Otherwise, if someone runs away from home for a day, this state will pass in a year. Three days of separation means three years. Your entire social system will undergo major changes. A child who has been away from home for ten or twenty days may be older than his parents when he comes back. 】

  "Good guy, this is actually quite exciting."

  After thinking about it this way, this is indeed an issue that must be taken seriously. After all, this is time. Although the order of cause and effect has not actually changed, time still flows from front to back. But because of the acceleration, there is a lot of extra time for physical sensation, which creates many opportunities and problems.

  "It seems that we'd better not open the fully functional Pure Land for the time being. Well, but we can try it out on a small scale? For people we know well. In addition, it's best to limit the time. Do you have any plans?"

  [I suggest limiting it from two angles. First and foremost, consider it from the perspective of personal safety, because after all, you are entering another world. Secondly, consider it from the perspective of social impact, because this extra time may have an unpredictable impact on the operation of the entire society. 】

  "Then wait until Phaethon comes out."

  Phaethon came out. When you come out, it looks the same as when you went in. But inside, she has spent 21 days, three weeks, which is almost as long as a winter vacation.

  "Do you still recognize me?"

  "Nonsense, it's only 21 days, it's just like a business trip. Well, I suddenly saw your face."

  She stretched out her hand and put it on Shangluo's face: "Suddenly I really want to squeeze it. Your face feels pretty good."

  "Tsk." Shangluo grabbed her wrist, took her hand to the side and let go, "Line, say the words. Tell me your own feelings, don't tell me."

  "There is no problem. It seems that the 21 days we planned before is a more reasonable number. I personally don't feel any discomfort, both physically and psychologically. Although there is still a bit of a gap. It has only been more than an hour outside. .”

  As she spoke, she sniffed: "You smell something else."

  "what?"

  "It smells like a panda. You went to the imperial garden to find Zhu Ling to eat. I can't teach you how to cook it." "Why should I cook it myself when I can find someone else to eat."

  "Please, can you not compete with the panda for food? Why don't you compete for the bamboo shoots?"

  "It's not very good to capture the bamboo shoots. If I hit it or it hits me, there's no difference between us. But..." He thought for a while:
  "Eating steamed buns is actually not a big problem. Zhu Ling said that the pandas in Yuyuan, except for Fufu, don't really like eating steamed buns. How much they eat depends on the mood of the 'uncle' for a few days, so there is always a lot left. What's left They were all used to feed the elephants next door. I ate the excess and became an altar-cleansing messenger."

  "Tsk, didn't you steal the elephant's food?"

  "Correction, it's just snacks for elephants. Elephants have a certain amount of food. These few buns are just snacks stuffed between teeth."

  Although he "corrected" Phaethon, Shangluo still took a sip of tea with peace of mind: "You look good, and there seems to be no big problem in your body and mind."

  "The next step will be overtime and a durability test," Phaethon said.

  "Wait a minute, isn't this too risky? Just do the test next time, and prepare for it next time."

  "It's better to hurry up than to hurry up." Phaethon replied, "Rather than wait for next time, it's better to keep me immersed while I'm still learning."

  "This kind of immersion can be dangerous. What we want to prevent is immersion."

  "If there is no danger, it wouldn't be called an experiment."

  "Okay. What about the plan? And how to calculate risk control?"

  "This time I plan to stay there for 42 days, leaving you nearly 3 hours. You can go have a cup of afternoon tea with Zhu Ling."

  "???" Shangluo was stunned for a moment, "Hey, hey, hey, you seem to have some problems in the past 21 days. Are you sure it won't become a big problem after 42 days?"

  "That's it, no problem. Also, regarding the technical indicators, Apollonia, what do you think?"

  [I will monitor your usage of metabits. ] Apollonia replied, [Because in this whole process, the most critical indicator that needs to be monitored is the usage of yuan bits. Because you consume a lot of yuan bits to enter that world, it is actually a manifestation of a 'transcendent', because although the gods coming to the lower world will bring many conveniences, they also have to pay a price, because the gods can come and go freely, and the gods come from the upper world. of strangers. And if the yuan bits you consume suddenly decrease]

  "That means I'm starting to indulge in that world, right?"

  【Um. I read that Shangluo said that there is something called "Internet addiction" in their world. Here, it can become quite dangerous, because it is tantamount to being fully immersed in that accelerated world. However, there are not that many people who are really addicted to the Internet. But if you go in for 42 days at a time, it’s still too long. For safety reasons, I will keep monitoring at all times. 】
