MTL - Number One Player-Chapter 231 Prelude
It has been more than two months since Jiuqu released the first video of "The Age of Extraordinary", that is, a copy of the white fog with more diverse customs clearance methods and more accurate corresponding extraordinary attributes. In the lapse of time, the number of extraordinary people in the world is also rising rapidly.
For some well-known reasons, countries keep a certain degree of secrecy about the number of superhumans in their country. However, as the mastermind behind the extraordinary era, Shang Yinhe still has some ways to estimate the number of extraordinary people in the world.
He has a skill called [Dungeon Feedback], which belongs to the auxiliary skill of [Long Live the Host]. The number of people who have cleared the White Mist dungeon can be roughly reversed by the number of anchor points obtained. And judging from the massive number of anchor points that were fed back, the number of extraordinary people in the entire world has now reached tens of millions.
Even if it is placed in the entire world, this number is not inconspicuous, but the voices of all the extraordinary are combined, and it is a force that can control the world.
"The existence of the Transcendent Academy," Shang Yinhe said with a smile as he sorted out the lesson plans he was working on, "is actually intensifying an atmosphere of change."
"Why do you say that?" Hearing this, Mu Shiming raised his eyebrows suspiciously.
The two of them are now in the teacher's office of Yongliang Transcendental Academy in Huaguo.
As a specially-appointed professor of the Yongliang Supernatural Academy, and as the most powerful superhuman under the Nine Songs, which is almost universally recognized, Shang Yinhe was invited by the management of the Yongliang Supernatural Academy to give a demonstration public class.
Teaching and educating people is a very pleasant thing, Shang Yinhe readily agreed, and specially took a one-day gap on the frontline battlefield to slip back to class - anyway, as a space department ability, he can ignore the time spent in traffic. of.
However, it seemed that Shang Yinhe slipped back a little early, and there was still more than half a day before the open class. Shang Yinhe, who had already prepared the lesson plan and was bored, started chatting with his assistant for this course—of course his old partner, Mu Shiming, who was also from the Space Department.
They started chatting from the war in Africa (Shang Yinhe said: "With me in charge, of course everything will go well, anyway, it's just a flat push"), until the Yongliang Transcendent Academy, which has been a week since the start of the school year.
"It turns out that most extraordinary people do not regard extraordinary people as one of their main identities," Shang Yinhe pointed to himself, "For example, I am the deputy director of the field department of the extraordinary affairs bureau first, and then the An extraordinary person. In China, my social identity is far more important than my extraordinary person identity.”
"But the existence of the Extraordinary Academy will catalyze a new identity," Shang Yinhe said. "Teachers, students, classmates, friends...and the most important common identity: Extraordinary."
"Every college is an ivory tower, a place to live and shape ideas," Shang Yinhe casually flipped through the prepared lesson plans, "Outside the campus, we have a lot of things to do, but inside the campus, We can sink down to think, to act, to seek approval, to change our ideas…”
"According to what you said," Mu Shiming couldn't help frowning, "Is the Transcendent Academy a very dangerous thing?"
"No, I didn't say that, why do you think so?" Shang Yinhe vetoed in surprise, "I just said that the Transcendent Academy will exacerbate the atmosphere of change, but not all changes are bad—in your just In general, you presuppose a 'change is dangerous' premise."
Mu Shiming couldn't help but be stunned. He thought for a while before nodding and admitting, "Yes, I seem to have presupposed such a premise."
"The future world should be a world of extraordinary people," Shang Yinhe raised his head and looked out the window, his pupil focal length was a little blurry, as if he was looking at the not too distant future, "After all, the copy of White Mist is placed there, As long as there is perseverance, no matter how bad people are, they can pass the level, regardless of how small the number of extraordinary people is now, but looking at his growth rate, you can perceive this kind of future."
"However," he emphasized this turning point, "our society is not ready for such a future world where all the people are extraordinary, whether it is psychologically, institutionally, or culturally, it is not ready. "
"From a psychological point of view, most of the extraordinary people who came from ordinary people have the illusion that the poor become rich, want to show off, and think that they are the children of destiny. The situation of some extraordinary people who awakened on their own is particularly serious;"
Talking about his enthusiasm, Shang Yinhe simply took a piece of paper and started writing and drawing - this habit, I don't know if Mobuluo infected him or he infected Mobuluo.
"From an institutional point of view, all the existing concepts of country, class, enterprise, etc., are designed for the original world without extraordinary people, and are not suitable for a world full of extraordinary people."
"From a cultural point of view, the future era of universal superhumans is an era that has never existed in history. The only ones that can adapt to this era may only be those fantasy comics and books."
Speaking of this, Shang Yinhe couldn't help but spread his hands and laughed: "But those comics and books are full of personal heroism, the halo of the protagonist, and those popular protagonists who can't suffer, can't be the Virgin, and kill decisively and so on. …Then I can only say that if people take those fantasy comics and books as cultural guides, then the future society must be a very chaotic society.”
His last sentence belonged to a non-standard complaint, but unfortunately, the one who listened to Shang Yinhe's complaint was Mu Shiming, who basically didn't read fantasy comics and books.
Mu Shiming, who didn't get the laugh, frowned and thought about Shang Yinhe's words, and responded with a serious look: "...So, do you think the existence of the Transcendent Academy is actually a good preview of the future?"
"I do think so," Shang Yinhe nodded, "Yongliang Transcendental Academy can actually be used as a good test field for transcendents to get along with. Ideas and systems will be stirred up here, and some sparks of inspiration will burst out."
No matter how big the turbulence is in reality, only a few lines of insignificant records will be left in the history books. In the records of [World Wind and Cloud], it only mentioned this wave of identity and class change of the extraordinary, which will sweep the world, and briefly introduced the process, but did not explain the origin and foundation of this change. and those deeper things.
If the current Shang Yinhe just followed the trend of history honestly, then he is not worthy of being the number one player of this so-called "game system" for so long.
Why did the wave of Transcendent change finally originate from Santantaria and several Transcendent colleges, and not from the more ambitious group of Transcendents who had long been connected in private?
Why is the way of getting along with the superhuman who differentiates classes by strength, finally abandoned by history? Why did history choose the current path, is it accidental caused by various factors, or is it inevitable to a certain extent?
Being in the wave of historical change and experiencing the most critical node, Shang Yinhe seems to have a deeper feeling for the trend of history.
"In addition to the Transcendent Academy, there is also the transformation of Santantaria that I am going through," Shang Yinhe unconsciously doodled on the paper with a pen, "That place is not just a place of traditional exploitation and oppression. Resistance is not just the resistance of small African countries to big countries, but more importantly, it is the transformation of the relationship between extraordinary people there..."
"Do you think," Mu Shiming actually kept up with Shang Yinhe's thinking rhythm, "What Mobuluo did will open up an experimental path for the whole world?"
"That's right," Shang Yinhe looked up at his partner, "Santanteria is a very unique place. Due to peculiar historical reasons - including the mutation of the White Mist copy, including the turbulence of evolutionary animals and plants, including The catalyst for the Third World War—all of these things, made it possible to form such an atmosphere of national transcendence in advance.”
"This is a good test field for superhumans to get along with," Shang Yinhe dropped the pen in his hand and leaned back on his chair, "The pure social Darwinist atmosphere of the jungle at that place must be Not suitable for the future world."
Speaking of which, Shang Yinhe couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled: "A special environment creates a special system, where anger and resistance are brewing, and there is an idealistic leader with a clear mind... I'm looking forward to seeing what will happen in the end. What kind of flowers will bloom."
"The angle you look at is very strange," Mu Shiming's eyes on Shang Yinhe were also very strange when he said this, "It gives me the feeling... you are looking down at the world from a very high angle. ."
Hearing this, Shang Yinhe couldn't help but be slightly taken aback.
As Jiuqu has existed for so long, has manipulated so many world changes, and witnessed the historical future briefly recorded in words and numerical values in the game [World Wind and Cloud], Shang Yinhe seems to be inconspicuous when looking at these now. Little things, the perspective is really unique. Mu Shiming said that he "is standing at a very high angle", and it seems that he is not wrong.
Shang Yinhe was slightly frightened by what he said, and couldn't help but quickly checked his [Rationalization Fog] skill, and confirmed that this skill has all of his, Jiuqu, Iida, Little Cloak, etc. Everything was shrouded in fog, so I was a little relieved.
—Theoretically speaking, he concealed his identity very well, and he also used the [Rationalization Fog] produced by the system as a cover, so there should be no flaws.
- Uh, is that so...?
However, Mu Shiming's words still sounded a small alarm bell for him.
Shang Yinhe blinked slightly vigilantly, and immediately changed the subject: "Let's go, it's almost time for class, let's go to the scene ahead of time to step on the spot."
Mu Shiming stared at him for a while, something seemed to flow in his eyes, but he finally laughed, as if nothing had happened, and responded: "Okay, let's go, today there will be many students and The teacher is here to listen..."
