Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 259 Tear
Today, when electricity has not been popularized in society, the emergence of the Internet is likely to lead to the intensification of the monopoly of production materials.

In fact, even considering the current productivity, the monopoly of the imperial society itself is already very serious——

The common people still use kerosene lamps for lighting, but the owners of assets have already begun to study artificial intelligence and have obtained preliminary results.

Such a society is really torn apart.

If the monopoly continues to intensify, Chen Yan even thought of a future possibility——

When mortal beings are still living in the world as carbon-based organisms, the monopoly has already accumulated enough to become an existence beyond the body.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan was suddenly taken aback.

If it is beyond the body...

Isn't mechanical ascension a way for ordinary people to choose to transcend their bodies?

He has heard the term [Mechanical Ascension Experiment] many times, and even his mobile phone is one of the results of the so-called [Mechanical Ascension Experiment].

I don't know who initiated this experiment, and with what goal did it end?
Chen Yan felt a little headache.

The empire developed too fast, and the superstructure and the underlying foundation were severely torn, which was originally impossible——

When the underlying foundation is not strong enough, the superstructure cannot be strong anyway.

However, this "impossible" thing has become a reality in the empire.

Really...

too weird.

When Chen Yan was thinking about these things, behind him, Wish witnessed everything.

She silently sucked the snot that was about to flow down, feeling at a loss in her heart.

'Listen...can't understand...'

She sniffed the snot back and regained some of her ability to think.

'Although I don't understand...but I probably know the answer to Chen Yan's inner question. '

'It all started with William Master getting his sister's memory fragments from the [Boundless Data Sea], and thus obtained some knowledge from the Big Data Sea——

The reason why the society is in such a torn state is because the existence like my sister, who can be called a "god" compared to ordinary people, brings knowledge that does not exist in this world to this world.

One is enough, but I clearly noticed that there is more than one sister-like existence.

Those knowledge had an impact on this world, causing the development of this world to completely deviate from its original development track. '

Wish subconsciously scratched his head.

"It's really a mess..."

'Having said that, I have seen those [outer gods] like my sister before, and even more peculiar. What kind of impact did their knowledge have on this world?
Perhaps it is not as profound as my sister's knowledge has changed the world, but it will definitely have an impact. '

Wish remembered his previous experience and thought inwardly.

'I suspect that the choral group also knows that there is an existence similar to the sister, otherwise how could they have created... robots like precepts 26 and chants 13?
Where did their knowledge and technology come from?
The scientists supported by the choral group, although their brains are good enough, are they not capable of [creating life]?Wouldn't that be equivalent to [blasphemy]?

My sister also made it clear before that even she can't create life. '

Thinking of this, Wish looked at Chen Yan proudly.

'what!Think hard!I just won't tell you! '

Chen Yan lay down, thinking about this matter over and over again, his head was in a mess, tossing and turning, he couldn't sleep well.

He began to think that tomorrow is Sunday, and the zoo will not allow people to go to work. Even if there is a way to rescue Vivienne, there is no way to implement it.

What's more, he hasn't figured out how to save him...

Perhaps the rescue plan would have been easier with the help of others at the zoo?
He immediately thought of Miss Turin's invitation.

Then, take advantage of the hard-won rest time tomorrow to go to the Star Observatory at Miskatonic University.

Even if you can't get any useful information about this incident, it may be a waste of time, but after all, Miss Turin is a colleague who meets every day, and has invited herself to get together after get off work many times.

If you refuse repeatedly, there will be no way to get along with colleagues.

When all kinds of troubles surround him, Chen Yan wants to live in harmony with Miss Du Ling who still has a certain affection for him.

Talk to her more about the zoo, maybe you will have an idea to rescue Vivienne?
As he thought of this, he remembered another thing.

'Now that I think about it, there seems to be something wrong with Miss Turin herself...

She seems a little schizophrenic?
Before, he clearly said that his name was Alice, but later he said that his name was Turin Lagrange...

Why didn't I realize that something was wrong with her before? '

Chen Yan couldn't figure it out, and it could only be attributed to the fact that he had a brain twitch before and didn't realize it.

'Although she is a bit schizophrenic, her IQ doesn't seem to be a problem, and she's really nice...I need to go this way. '

'Go to Miskatonic University in the morning, and go to the church school in the afternoon to see if I can get the admission of Nuomi Guo settled. '

Rolling around on the bed until five o'clock in the morning, Chen Yan finally couldn't stand it any longer. He got up from the bed, glanced out the window where the street lights were still on, and after making sure that it wasn't snowing, he dressed and left the apartment, and went to the itinerant street vendor on Walker Street. The gathering place to buy breakfast.

Aunt Susan still has no stalls, but her son's stall has some rather rare items:

Toffee and nougat wrapped in poor-quality paper, homemade cigarettes, small bottles of perfume in glass bottles, instant bacon wrapped in plastic bags...

The traditional breakfast at the stall is just a small pot of hot food.

Chen Yan came to him and joked: "Today's products are very rich."

The young man's EQ was very low, he didn't hear the teasing in Chen Yan's gentle tone, and thought Chen Yan was really complimenting him.

Therefore, the kind-hearted him immediately forgot about the "old enemy" that Chen Yan teased before, and responded happily:
"Master Adams has driven down the prices of goods produced in factories! Now everyone can afford them!"

He winked: "There are additional discounts for wholesale! Mr. Adams is really thinking of everyone!"

Chen Yan's eyes wandered among the products in the trolley in front of him, as if he asked inadvertently: "Did Leonard Adams win the last vote?"

The young man almost laughed: "Of course! Lord Adams won the hearts of the people with his actions, and now he is a hero in everyone's hearts!"

Chen Yan chuckled, turned around and bought "traditional handmade breakfast" from other stalls, and went home all the way.

Some thoughts came to his mind:
'The low-level people like mobile vendors can sell, which shows that light industrial products have begun to enter the market, and the convenience brought by industrialization can finally be enjoyed by the public...

Although this is a good thing, it is very uncomfortable to think that it is the exploiters who make the decisions. '

'The fruits of productivity development that the people can enjoy should not be handouts from those people. '

Chen Yan didn't know that her gaze was firmer than before, and her heart was no longer confused.

’ That Leonard Adams, don’t know what the hell was doing. '

'Is an investment of this size ... really just for the campaign? '

He returned home in constant thinking, greeted Nuomi Guo who had just woken up, and went out with breakfast.

There are a lot of things to do today, so we must hurry up.

Today's first stop is Miskatonic University on High Street in Uptown.
