"——You are not Dr. Actor."
While Su Mingan's thoughts were racing, AI Xike suddenly said this.
"I'm not." Su Mingan admitted.
Xike was with Akto himself day and night, so it was easy for it to notice that something was wrong with him.
...It was the first time that his true identity was exposed at the very beginning.
This Dr. Actor obviously has a very high prestige, and everyone around him loves him very much. If people find out that he is not the real deal...
AI Xike's panel flickered for a moment. After a moment, it actually said:
"I see.
So, unknown visitor, what should I call you?"
Su Mingan was stunned for a moment by its calmness.
"Please communicate with me as soon as possible. I need to provide you with information about the world so that you can quickly integrate into the world." Xike continued.
"My name is..." Su Mingan's thoughts raced quickly.
Thinking about the possible consequences of exposing his identity, he said, "My name is Lu Shu."
"Okay, Lu Shu." Xi Ke said, "Please accept this information..."
As soon as it finished speaking, a panel filled with text appeared in front of Su Mingan.
By browsing, he learned the basic information of the ruins world.
Decades ago, the world was in ruins due to war. The remaining humans shook hands and made peace, building ten final cities and turning them into oases in the scorched earth.
However, the routine life could not satisfy this group of people, so they built the eleventh city - "Doomsday City".
The Doomsday City is remotely controlled by the other ten cities, and people drive refugees, beggars, criminals and other "low-class people" to the Doomsday City. The people of the Doomsday City cannot resist, and can only live in extreme pain like beasts in the Colosseum from generation to generation.
——However, in a certain year, a genius emerged.
He used abandoned resources and a group of abandoned people to start a war and eventually win. This war was called the "Dawn War".
After the war, he transformed the [Dawn System] left over from the last century and established the [Eight Personality Theory].
The Dawn System will scan every human being and divide them into eight personality types - people's talents can therefore be quantified and categorized, so they can quickly find their jobs based on their "adaptability".
[Personality] has become the biggest criterion for judging talents. Criminal personalities are excluded, while personalities with good moral standards are accepted.
Even if a talent is lost, a replacement can be found based on the [Personality Test]. This makes the "Doomsday City" the most prosperous city in the wasteland during its development.
"Doomsday City" was later renamed "Measurement City". Everyone can be "precisely measured" here, which attracted a large number of travelers who felt that their talents were not appreciated.
In addition, this world is also facing the crisis of [other-dimensional invasion].
[Other-dimensional invasion]——means that advanced civilization invades the current world.
The advanced civilization did not directly invade the world they were in, but instead created a large amount of space turbulence. Except for the small protected [safe zone] where there was no turbulence, there were large numbers of casualties in the uncontrolled [danger zone] at any time.
The genius who built the Measurement City actually established a large-scale [Safety Zone]. He also used the eight personality types to regulate humans, making people act strictly in accordance with the rules and regulations.
And the genius who changed everything, his name was - Asa Akto.
The City of Measurement is his name.
Now, Su Mingan is him.
…
[Ruined World·Danger Zone]
Amidst the endless yellow sand, a figure in a black robe slowly crossed the hills. He seemed to be a traveler in the desert, with his head lowered and not saying a word.
"——Emotion needle! 5 cole per needle, you don't have to worry about emotional overload after one shot! Travelers, the city of measurement is ahead! Always have an emotion needle ready!"
"——Hotel, stay! 3 Cole a day!"
Hawkers shouting their wares, travelers carrying large bags, people gather in this medium-sized gathering place, rubbing shoulders with each other, and crowds gather.
The man in black robe walked into a tavern in the corner of the market and ordered a cup of coffee.
Opposite the man in black robe appeared a blonde woman in blue. She was a bionic man.
The black-robed man held out his hand—a hand with burns that looked a little purple—and added a sugar cube to his android. They looked like a couple, and in this era, it was acceptable for humans and androids to have a relationship.
After taking a sip of her coffee, the android Lady in Blue spoke.
"He's here," she said.
"Yeah." The man in black robe did not move.
"Would you like some wine? Alcohol will make you feel better." said the lady in blue.
“No.” The man in black robe stroked the coffee cup with his fingers. “I just think it’s too wonderful… This feeling of [observation] makes me start to think about the nature of this world.”
"Don't think too much, just leave everything to the [Dawn System]. What you need to think about is how to successfully enter the Central City after luring him in there." said the lady in blue.
"Come back." The man in black robe extended his hand to the lady in blue.
The lady in blue turned into a stream of light and flowed onto the wrist of the man in black robe.
The table opposite the man in black robe was empty.
He looked at the empty seat and breathed a sigh of relief.
"...Good night," he said.
