"Name?"
"... Huai Shi."
"Gender?"
"Male."
"Age?"
"......"
"Age?"
After a long period of silence, Huai Shi shut his eyes and took a deep breath. Then, he turned back and looked at the man behind him, "Hey, do you really have to go to this extent?"
He pointed at the safe and couldn't help but want to split it open with his axe, "It's just a bloody identity verification. Do you really have to go to this extent?"
"Ah, this … didn't everyone say that you like it?"
Raymond was stunned, "This is something that the grandmaster had specially prepared for you! Something about not forgetting traditional arts and crafts … "
Huai Shi was furious.
"Isn't it good for you to get some work done in the mortal realm?!"
"This is just an identity verification. Don't take it to heart." Raymond raised his finger and pointed at the safe, "Time's almost up. Hurry up. If you get it wrong three times, the lock cylinder will automatically lock itself …"
"Age?"
The rigid electronic voice on the safe urged him.
Huai Shi rolled his eyes, "Eighteen!"
An ear-piercing alarm sounded, and the electronic voice suddenly became high-pitched and filled with murderous intent, "Wrong answer. Lock cylinder locked, engine overloaded, ready to self-destruct — 3! 2！ 1！”
The corners of Huai Shi's eyes twitched wildly. Before he could even lay down tactically, he saw the door of the safe spring open with a bang, and a large pile of confetti and fireworks spewed out from within.
“surprise！”
Raymond jumped out from behind, blowing a paper whistle in his hand, "Aren't you surprised? Aren't you surprised?!"
"Bloody hell …"
Huai Shi pulled out the Axe of Wrath and slashed at Raymond's old face, "This is what you call a bloody surprise!"
"Wait, wait, it's fine if you chop me to death, but don't damage this thing. It's old and expensive. Wait a minute!"
Raymond shrank behind the safe. As the pivot turned, layers of sealed alloy layers opened up, and the alchemy matrix hidden within reorganized, propping up the core of the safe.
In the open safe, a twenty-four-sided cube the size of a human head slowly rose.
It looked like a work of art carved from obsidian, but the countless tiny lines on it were like a matrix formed by overlapping characters. It defied gravity and floated in the air, reflecting waves of mysterious light.
Utopia Type IV V4.12.
The core of the large-scale framework that the Creator had meticulously created was, in short, the 'heart' and engine that maintained the large-scale fixed framework for a long time.
By burning Origin Substances and creating Principles, the effects that the Creator had set up were maintained.
Although it did not possess extreme offensive and defensive capabilities, or even the enhancement of various special abilities, as the most balanced type IV, it was undoubtedly the most suitable item for the current Danbo Inner Circle.
It was also an indispensable part of a school district's defense.
The core framework of Utopia was the best-selling product in Utopia back then. It was known for its stability, efficiency, and perfect quality-price ratio. It had been equipped in countless small gathering areas at the border and in Hell.
Now, it was monopolized by the Ivory Tower, and it had entered version 4.12 after years of upgrades. For a medium-large framework like this one to be used in the present world, it took years to make, and the price was meaningless. There was no market for it even if there was a price. It was usually used as a precious resource to be exported and traded with other parties.
Under the normal mode, it inherited a large-scale local area network, simultaneously running hundreds of thousands of Origin Substance communication threads, 24-hour monitoring without any blind spots, radar, identity authentication, and the maintenance of various Principles … …
Simply put, it was a God mode that covered the entire Danbo Inner Circle.
Although it was not as flexible as the Creator himself, it could still be used to control the weather and achieve various effects.
This also included the most important 'cognitive control'.
It could interfere with ordinary people's Origin Substances to a certain extent. Although it was not as bug-like as the Astronomical Society's memetic control, it could still make beast-type individuals less conspicuous.
It could also make the people who entered subjectively ignore some things that were not so important.
At this moment, in the underground core area of the Danbo Inner Circle, Huai Shi held the box in his hands and carefully walked through the heavily sealed door. With the help of a dozen or so Scholars, he embedded the core framework into the base.
Following a burst of light, countless characters and Principles appeared from the core and slowly rotated. As the Scholars made adjustments, one by one, they were connected to an external interface.
First, it was the control of the core area of the present world, followed by the control of the outer area of the campus, and then extended outwards. In the blink of an eye, it covered all of the streets of the Danbo Inner Circle.
In the blink of an eye, everything seemed to be under his control.
Huai Shi flipped through the thick manual in his hands and carefully set all of the parameters under the guidance of the Scholars following him according to the steps. Finally, he let out a sigh of relief.
Even though everything was under control, he couldn't play with this toy at all.
Even the slightest mistake in the decimal point or parameter would lead to unimaginable consequences. This was not something that could be done casually. If the composition of the air was even slightly wrong, tens of thousands of people would be poisoned to death in less than half an hour.
Every time this toy was adjusted, it required both Huai Shi and the management personnel to certify the origin substances. This was to prevent some naughty child from carelessly pressing a few buttons and causing the entire region's population to collectively die.
In the end, as the core framework resonated with the border of the Ivory Tower, the data channel was opened. The projection of the Ivory Tower far away at the border descended into this huge underground facility. All of the participants couldn't help but applaud excitedly.
It had nothing to do with the construction of the campus on the surface. Only the smooth operation of this core framework was proof that the present world campus had established a foundation.
Whether it was in terms of laws, records, or even actual control, at this moment, the Danbo Inner Circle was already completely under Huai Shi's control.
In name, in theory, and in practice, these three conditions were fulfilled. This was the guarantee that the Danbo Inner Circle was independent of the capital, the Yingzhou system, and the entire Yingzhou system.
It was almost equivalent to a country within a country.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Ivory Tower's main school was in a state of letting the Danbo Inner Circle grow. Human resources and finance were all handled by Huai Shi. In terms of administration, Huai Shi had the final say.
It was as if the first step of the Ivory Tower's return to the present world after 57 years was in his hands.
"The pressure is as great as a mountain."
Huai Shi sat in a chair and stared at the framework matrix on the ceiling. He couldn't help but sigh.
It had been more than a month since he was officially discharged.
Vice-Principal Isaac had already left after dealing with the aftermath of the swamp people's disease. He was too busy with his own school's matters to worry about the Danbo Inner Circle.
The rest of the complicated matters were all thrown to Huai Shi.
Huai Shi could only force a duck onto a perch and take care of them one by one.
Now that a framework had been set up, it could be said that he had achieved in-progress results.
The construction of the Danbo Inner Circle could be said to be a long way off. As the Ivory Tower's present world campus, it was also the entrance to the school's present world students.
It was responsible for selecting talents for the school.
At the same time, it was also a group with education as its main business core.
In addition to the four primary schools that were currently established and a middle school that was under construction, there was also a university for ordinary people that was about to be completed.
With the help of the Ivory Tower's channels, Huai Shi was gradually fulfilling his promise to the Danbo Inner Circle.
Clean water, healthy food, stable order, equal medical treatment, and finally … a sound education.
With the school as the core, it replaced the former alliance and carried out substantial jurisdiction and control over the current Danbo District. Now, the present world campus and the Danbo Inner Circle were almost becoming Huai Shi's private property.
At the same time, it was also burdened with a huge amount of loans and debts.
Not to mention that the debt ratio of the Danbo Inner Circle was now over the limit, even Huai Shi himself was only one step away from becoming a dishonest person.
The other aspects of the supply could be said to be support for the subordinate units, but Huai Shi himself still owed Russell 0.093% of the correction value!
Moreover, he would never have dreamed that the reason for his bankruptcy was because of a cat …
More than a month ago, War and Peace had turned 1,700 Crow into ghosts in one fell swoop. What was consumed was not source substance, but the correction value of the Ivory Tower!
It felt good to show off, but it was a crematorium.
Moreover, the correction value was not something that could be transferred just because one wanted to, unless it was replaced by another person who was crowned. Otherwise, it belonged to whoever it belonged to.
The distributor of the "All Ages Card" was the gold card standard set by the World Records, and the 0.05% correction value was also given to the Danbo Inner Circle that Huai Shi represented.
If Huai Shi could really give the Danbo Inner Circle the future he promised, then the changes caused in the following thirty years would be enough to meet the standard.
But now … Huai Shi only had 0.05% of the correction value.
But Huai Shi's personal correction value would not be calculated to the Ivory Tower. The divinity that he used to supply Great Si Ming was not even enough!
Therefore, the correction value that he consumed from the Ivory Tower could only be gradually made up by increasing the changes that the Ivory Tower could bring to the world.
Simply put, it was a job.
Russell that old bastard's abacus was loud and clear. As long as Huai Shi settled the Reality Campus, this debt would definitely be paid off, and there would even be some left over! At that time, he would have proven his ability and talent, and the benefits that the organization gave him would not be in vain …
But from this point of view, it coincided with Huai Shi's next goal.
However, when he woke up from his long pondering, he saw the person in front of him.
He did not understand.
"Why haven't you left yet?" Huai Shi asked.
Was he going to stay for dinner?
"Hmm? Didn't I tell you? Then I must have forgotten! "
Raymond slapped the back of his head and took out a crumpled personnel assignment letter from his trouser pocket. "Recently, the school has no shortage of drivers. The principal thought that I still have so many loans to repay, so he sent me here as a tool."
Huai Shi's eyelids twitched wildly.
Great, another mouth to feed … '
The landlord didn't have any spare food!
"Alright, the security captain has been arranged." Huai Shi sighed. "It just so happens that I've been lacking a driver recently. It won't be hard on you, right?"
"I'm a Stage Three Ascendant, a battle-hardened mercenary, an elite traitor of the Eye of Nightmare … You want me to be your driver?" Raymond widened his eyes and was furious. "Are you insulting me, Huai Shi? This is not something that can be solved with a few hundred yuan increase in salary!"
Huai Shi could not help but want to roll his eyes. "Then how much do you want?"
"At least two thousand!"
"A thousand, no more."
Huai Shi got up and threw the car keys from his pocket. "Let's go and eat first. We still have to meet the people from the bank in the afternoon. Time is of the essence."
He had to borrow money again.
His heart ached …
