Chapter 223 The Free World
Jiang Li didn't change his face after all.
"My name is Du Ming. Brother, which of the five galaxies of hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium and boron are you from? What's the situation outside now?"
"Not from any galaxy. I'm from the Kyushu world. I accidentally discovered the holographic simulator produced by your Feitian Civilization Company. I tried to play with it and just registered an account."
"Hahaha, the demons from outside the domain are all bastards, brother, you really know how to joke." Handsome uncle Du Ming laughed, thinking that Jiang Li was joking.
"Is the prefix of 'brother' too long?" Although he came up with the name himself, Jiang Li still felt it was weird.
"That's called Dog Brother?"
"…Forget my online name, my name is Jiang Li."
"Brother Jiang."
Jiang Li never concealed his origins, but not many people believed him.
No one would believe Jiang Li's words unless he showed off his Mahayana cultivation.
But this big world is obviously not simulated perfectly enough, and it is impossible to practice. There is no spiritual energy, no understanding of the laws of nature, only the commonplace laws of physics.
This shows that the Goule civilization had no contact with spiritual energy or cultivation, and was focused on developing science and technology.
"Uncle Du, is it my illusion? Why does it feel like there are so few people in the Big World? Aren't these houses occupied?"
Jiang Li and Du Ming were walking on the street. There were only a few passers-by on the street, making it extremely deserted.
However, there are tall buildings all around.
If there were no people, why would the building be so high? This doesn't make sense.
"Someone does live in the house, but not very often. They live in their own little world."
"Although the big world is free and you can do many things, there are still moral and legal constraints. For example, you can't be a ruler, have multiple wives, etc., and you can't do anything illegal or criminal. So everyone likes to stay in their own world."
"Generally, people who come to the big world are bored in their own world, so they come here to talk to others, ask them how their world was built, find inspiration, and then go back to build their own small world."
Jiang Li expressed his understanding. The Great Zhou had done relevant research on the issue of abiding by laws and regulations. All living beings have absolute freedom and are unwilling to be bound or abide by the rules.
Just for the sake of survival, people enter into a conceptual "contract" with the state, are forced to abide by rules and order, and limit some of their own freedom, so as to protect the right to life, the right to survival and a series of other rights to the greatest extent.
Without the protection of rules, high-level cultivators can play with the lives of low-level cultivators at will, and even massacre cities and destroy countries, making the lives of all living beings a stepping stone on the road to becoming immortals.
In the Great Zhou, low-level cultivators and mortals do not have to worry about their lives all the time.
Da Zhou called this theory "social contract theory."
"Actually, the Big World is pretty good." Du Ming brought Jiang Li to an ice cream shop, ordered a large cup of ice cream, and asked Jiang Li if he wanted one. Jiang Li thought about it and asked for a cone.
"However much money is, I'll owe it to you first." Jiang Li didn't want to owe anyone money.
Unexpectedly, Du Ming laughed out loud: "Brother Jiang, there is no concept of 'money' in the big world. You don't have to pay for anything. You can eat whatever you want, drive whatever car you want, and live in whatever house you want. It's much better than the real world."
Du Ming waved his hand on the side of the road, and a car skeleton appeared out of thin air. Digital symbols covered it like a tide, constructing the car's shell and interior. An extremely expensive red convertible sports car appeared in front of the two people. The whole process took no more than two seconds.
"If there were no municipal planning, houses could be created at will." Du Ming pulled Jiang Li out of the city, sighing as he drove, even gesticulating when he was excited. Fortunately, the car can drive automatically and there will be no accidents.
"To be honest, this Feitian company can still do something about its personnel. Before the holographic simulator came out, I thought they would only push people to death, and implemented the concept that people die before they finish their work."
“The government doesn’t care?”
Du Ming looked at Jiang Li with a puzzled look: "Isn't Feitian Company the government? Or should I say the government is a product of Feitian Company's support. Has Feitian Company's status declined now?"
Jiang Li couldn't answer this question.
"Hey, we've already come to the virtual world, why are we still talking about these things?" Du Ming soon stopped caring about this matter. What happened in the real world was meaningless to him.
No matter how good the real world is, can it be better than the big world where everything is free and the small world where people dominate at will?
"Is there any place you like? You can build a house here as you like." Du Ming took Jiang Li to the suburbs, where the greening rate was very high and various wild animals jumped out from the grass from time to time.
Some people choose to build villas here, which give the feeling of ancient aristocratic mansions nestled among the mountains.
But there was no one in the villa, everyone was in their own little world.
Jiang Li shook his head and politely declined Du Ming's proposal.
"Brother Jiang, you've just arrived. Have you built your little world yet?"
“I haven’t figured out what my world will look like yet.”
"Would you like to come and take a look at my little world?"
"good."
A screen appeared in front of Jiang Li, with the words "Player Du Ming invites you to enter his world, do you want to enter?"
Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.
Jiang Li chose to enter.
A light gate suddenly appeared right in front of the sports car.
The world changed, the scenery replaced, and the two came to a small world that was completely different from the big world.
This is a world with very backward productivity, like the Middle Ages in the West in the previous life.
A shadow passed by, Jiang Li looked up and saw a giant winged dragon from the West flying over his head, which was completely different from the Kyushu dragon clan.
Du Ming and Jiang Li turned into adventurers wearing armor and holding swords and shields, and the sports car turned into tall horses.
"You should have read fantasy novels, such as the brave savior, the devil who destroys the world, the long-lived elves, the dragon-slaying warriors, etc. They are all here."
"I gave myself the position of a hero summoned by the goddess from another world. What profession do you want? How about a sage?"
"The sage is fine."
The weapon in Jiang Li's hand turned into the Sage's Book, and his personal information interface also showed that he was proficient in all types of magic.
"So what are we going to do now, defeat the demon king?"
Du Ming still looked middle-aged: "The devil has been defeated by me. I am now a retired hero. Come on, I will take you home to see my wives."
As a brave man, Du Ming can also use magic. He performed the space transfer spell and returned home.
"Aming, you're back." When the beauties, each with their own unique features, saw Du Ming, they all ran over. They were wearing cool clothes that did not look like formal clothes at all.
"This is Lisdel, my childhood sweetheart, a former member of the Brave Squad, and a warrior." Lisdel was wearing three-point armor, her beauty was faintly visible, especially when she bowed to Jiang Li.
You don't need to ask to know that this is Du Ming's interest.
"This is Claire, a nun from the Goddess Church and a member of the Hero Team."
"This is the third princess of the kingdom, Fia. Although there were some misunderstandings at the beginning, they were all resolved. She helped me a lot in defeating the Demon King."
"I didn't help you. I was thinking about the kingdom."
"This is Demon King Vesnina. After I defeated her and explained things to her, she agreed to stop her plan to invade the kingdom."
"This is the goddess Anna, who has come down from the divine realm and is willing to serve me."
Goddess Anna has a holy look on her face, which makes people feel that they dare not blaspheme. However, the cool underwear she wears is seriously inconsistent with her expression.
The nun and the goddess are both your wives? Jiang Li thought Du Ming was really good at playing.
