Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 365 The Beginning of a New Dawn

Chen Yan and Messiah got the admission notice, and on the way back, they bought fried chicken, Coke and hamburgers that were newly available on the market.

Chen Yan looked at the way Messiah ate these things, and once thought that he had returned to the world where he was in his previous life.

The development of the market is too fast these days, but I haven’t been to the church school for a few days, and fast food restaurants and drink shops have appeared on the side of the road here, and a large number of neon tubes of various colors have been abused on the billboards of these shops , unexpectedly beautiful.

The area where the school is located is always better developed than other areas, especially for church schools. With the strong support of the choral group, the latest industrial achievements of Yanan City are often first applied to the area where church schools are located.

What shocked Chen Yan greatly was the municipal infrastructure plan.

On the way he and Messiah had just arrived at the church school, they saw a transport steam rail car parked in the middle of the road, and a tall, slender conical tower was placed on top of the car—

The tower seems to be about 30 meters high, and the texture of the shell seems to be some kind of high-hardness white resin?
From the whole point of view, this thing is very similar to the signal tower seen in the previous life.

A large number of such conical towers, after being transported by steam rail cars, were erected by workers in various streets and in various communities.

Chen Yan approached to inquire, and learned that these signal towers were called [Lighthouses], and they were erected here for the purpose of popularizing wireless charging appliances for citizens in the future, and serving as transfer nodes for various wireless signals.

Chen Yan was extremely shocked. The world skipped the "laying cables" and will soon step directly into the era of wireless power for all!
Where does the money for researching these technologies and laying these infrastructures come from?
From taxes?

The new members of the Nayanan City Council are also too generous!
If the [Lighthouse] covering the entire city can radiate to every citizen, and can really serve as a transit node for various signals, then the server built by the director can also take advantage of this...

No, maybe, one of the main functions of the construction of [Lighthouses] all over Yanan City is to serve the Internet.

Chen Yan was a little excited, because one of the problems he didn't understand the most was [how to connect the public to the Internet after the director builds the Internet].

Now that Yanan City is like this, it is impossible for devices that can access the Internet to enter every household - the construction cost of the Internet is too high, not only to build a central server, but also to lay wired optical cables and signal base stations throughout the urban area , which is an unimaginably large sum of money.

Moreover, even if there is sufficient network infrastructure, most people in Yanan City can't afford it—everyone can't even eat enough, how can they have spare money to buy electronic equipment?
In other words, judging from the situation at the time, even if the dean turned on the server, it was impossible for enough users to access the network.

As a result, the Internet, which requires a lot of people to build, will develop extremely slowly.

Now, with the appearance of [Lighthouse], this problem is easily solved——

Wireless equipment can drastically reduce the cost of expanding the Internet, which means that Yanan City does not need to produce too many optical cables for communication——

The money saved can go to the private sector to popularize personal electronic equipment.

With the director's mind, he must be able to think of such a way.

With the director's ambition, he must be able to afford such a capital.

The [Lighthouse] is almost an upside-down cone. It only needs to be embedded under the surface with a specific device, and a two-meter-square concrete base is placed on the part above the surface, and the erection is complete.

Due to this simple, rude and reckless erection method, the [Lighthouse] was erected extremely fast.

When Chen Yan first came to the church school, the [Lighthouse] at the gate of the church school had just been unloaded from the steam track.

And now, after he left the school, even the [Lighthouse] on the other side of the street in front of the school has been erected.

At this rate... the server should be up soon!
Chen Yan couldn't hide her excitement. Under Messiah's puzzled eyes, she explained a lot to her in terms that didn't belong to this world.

Chen Yan was talking excitedly, when he suddenly felt like having a stroke, his eyes rolled and his eyes went dark.

Immediately, a familiar human voice from far away rang in Chen Yan's ears.

'The No. [-] lighthouse group in Shangcheng District has been started, the power of the unit is stable, the flow rate of spiritual power at the input and output ends is stable, and the spiritual pressure of the chipset is floating within the estimated value. '

'The cable signal transmission is normal, the wireless signal fluctuation is normal, and the first generation network protocol is being prepared. '

'Agreement passed, system basic program code [New Dawn], version Ver1.0, countdown 3.2.1...'

'The server of the Northern Federation Yanan Lighthouse Group is open. '

The next moment, in front of Chen Yan's eyes was the Messiah who was holding his hand, but another picture unfolded in front of his eyes, which gradually overlapped with the present world where the Messiah lived——

The boundless white world is empty, and the space in front of it fluctuates occasionally. During the fluctuations, countless floating-point chains composed of 0s and 1s jump on it. After a moment, the fluctuations disappear.

"This is……"

This is what the "quantum clone" that Chen Yan left behind on the network cable saw!
At this time, the eyes of him in this world are open, while the eyes of him on the Internet are still open, so two completely different pictures appear in front of him at the same time.

Chen Yan and the avatar maintain a quantum entanglement relationship, share the same consciousness, and their thinking is completely synchronized. Every move can be sensed by the two bodies at the same time without delay, and the things around the body are also displayed clearly and simultaneously.

This wonderful connection shocked him, as if he was in the online world.

The interlaced images of the world and the Internet made him a little uncomfortable. He knew in his heart that he had to find a safe place to stand for a while.

He pulled Messiah to the steam bus platform, sat on a bench on the platform, and whispered:
"Messiah, wait for me, I need some time."

After getting the girl's nod of agreement, Chen Yan closed his eyes.

The next moment, in front of the quantum clone, the entire network world that no longer overlaps with the present world is clearly presented.

The whole world was pale and boring, without anything Chen Yan imagined. He "advanced" in one direction for a long time, and he didn't see any other colors except paleness.

Until the familiar human voice sounded in his ears again, as if the gods created the world, the words followed:
'We started by setting up a domain and giving the first users access. '

The voice fell, and in the pale network, an old-fashioned Gothic high-rise building in Yanan City rose from the ground, becoming the only building in the pale world.

Chen Yan was sure that that voice was William Master.

He "floated" outside the high building in silence, looking into the hall at the bottom of the high building.

The hall is no longer as pale as the outside world, but looks like the bank hall in the upper city that Chen Yan has been to - the floor is covered with expensive marble floors carved with exquisite patterns, and there are simple flowers and plants on both sides of the hall.

'Most of the first batch of users are our investors, we need to let them see clearly the value of [New Dawn], so, put the first-level domain that you have customized according to investors' personal preferences, and place it in the main domain middle. '

The voice fell, and some data turbulence composed of 0 and 1 appeared in the pale world.

In the turbulent flow, many rooms appeared in the high-rise building. Through the windows, Chen Yan saw various strange scenes:

In some rooms, eye-stimulating pink appeared, and girls in spicy clothes appeared in it;
Some rooms were empty, except for a huge network diagram drawn on the wall. Chen Yan could vaguely see that one of the diagrams showed a fugitive he had seen in newspapers—this room should represent with some kind of secret;

Some rooms and several rooms next to it were opened up, obviously used as secret meeting rooms...

In more rooms, there are strange things that Chen Yan can't imagine.

The only thing he can be sure of is that these rooms are all used to meet people's needs.

'finished?OK, now, add keys to those first-level domains. '

The next moment, curtains and doors appeared together, closing each small room tightly, and Chen Yan could no longer see the scene in the room.

Fuck... is it so stable?

This broken network looks like a bird of shit, who cares to see it!
Although he complained so much in his heart, Chen Yan knew that the reason why the director installed an encryption key for the so-called "first-level domain" was to prevent 'investors' from spying on each other.

According to his understanding, [main domain], that is, this building, is equivalent to a website.

And [first-level domain], that is, a certain link in the website, after clicking on it, you can jump to the second-level webpage—that is, the small rooms he saw just now.

Everything that happened on the Internet must not look like this in the eyes of "investors", but it can be shown so vividly in front of Chen Yan's eyes. This situation was really unexpected to him at the beginning.

The director's voice is still coming intermittently:
'I'm about to turn off admin privileges, any comments?Bring it up now. '

'Um?No comments?It’s not right for you to do this, just say what you have, this is our main way of communication in the future, you don’t have to cater to me unconditionally just because you fear my name. '

'Um... well, well, that's it for now.

I have to go to the Senate to hold a meeting. You will collect the floating data of the network, and then perform daily maintenance on the server...

Well, yes, it is the process we discussed. '

At this point, William Master's voice disappeared.

Chen Yan found that compared to the mature William Master, the old William Master spoke more peacefully.

But even though he remained peaceful, Chen Yan could still hear the feeling of "I am number one in the world, no one cares about me" from his tone.

After William Master left, the entire online world was still running. Chen Yan looked up at the pale sky, and felt that there was a sense of vicissitudes like "the sky is eternal" like the present world.

How long can such a network world exist?

Even in the previous life he traveled through, no one could give the answer.

For this online world, William Master is the administrator, the creator, and the supreme god who has the authority to create everything.

But Chen Yan couldn't do it, he thought to himself, he is now a virus at best, and he needs to go through the infection process to have an impact on the online world.

Thinking of this, he looked at the building, and a thought suddenly appeared in his head:
They built this building representing the "URL" in the server. If my "virus" "invades" the building and searches "backward" along the building, will I be able to find the address of their server?

If I find the address of the server, can I directly hack into it?
Chen Yan decided to give it a try.
