It is simply an impossible task to spend only one dollar to buy something you want on the Internet.
What's more, this is not the Internet, but a super star network connecting the entire universe!
It was late at night, but Li Yi didn't feel sleepy at all. He unscrewed the Coke bottle next to him and took a sip, wiped his mouth, opened a bag of instant noodles, picked up the instant noodle pancake and started to bite it.
Eating instant noodles with coke and dry food is quite a weird combination. Li Yi himself doesn’t remember when he developed this unhealthy eating habit.
There is a boxy portable wireless router on the desk. It is made of silver metal and is very small. If it is equipped with a watch chain, it would look like a smart watch worn by modern people.
When Li Yi picked it up, he thought he had picked up a watch. Unexpectedly, after pressing the side button, the guy began to actively identify Li Yi's notebook, connected to a network called Star Network, and automatically converted the language into Chinese.
In the Star Network, whether it is the armor worn by soldiers, the weapons used, or windbreakers that are as thin as paper but can withstand the freezing cold of minus 80 degrees, or eating a piece of energy chocolate that can last for a week, all kinds of remote
There are all kinds of magical items at the level of a super-Earth civilization!
Shopping and trading are only part of the powerful functions of the Star Network. Li Yi can also learn a lot of little-known information through the Star Network.
For example, this universe is divided into star fields. The star field where the earth is located is called Bristol, and the neighboring star fields are Assyria and Grenada.
In the past, Li Yi always liked to read news on the Internet. When he logged into the Star Network, he discovered that the news on the Star Network can be described as an information nuclear explosion. There are tens of thousands of habitable planets in a star field, and each planet has one day.
Thousands of pieces of news will be generated.
Li Yi stared at the constantly refreshing titles on the screen and had difficulty choosing. He didn't know how to start.
If you want to read books and movies about extraterrestrial civilizations, with a click of the mouse, billions of books and billions of movies will pop up. Oh my god, what is this concept? Even if Li Yi spends his whole life on the Starlink network, he will not be able to read it.
I can’t finish it!
It’s too huge. The Star Network is really too huge!
I can’t remember which philosopher said that the end of information explosion is information congestion.
Li Yi suddenly felt that this sentence really made sense. With such a massive amount of information and technical materials, anyone would have to spend a lot of time choosing. This is undoubtedly a waste of life. In the long selection process, life will be lost unconsciously.
Getting old.
The problem now is that although Li Yi is connected to the Star Network, he only has one star yuan in his account and cannot afford to buy anything.
It's like a foodie who suddenly comes to a wonderful world where trees are full of candies, but can't eat anything and can only stare and drool. How embarrassing it is.
The Star Network uses the common interstellar currency, referred to as Star Yuan. Not to mention that Li Yi is a poor man. Even if he is as rich as the rest of the world, he cannot exchange the currency used on Earth for Star Yuan. Without Star Yuan, he cannot buy Star Yuan.
These new and weird things on the Internet.
Hey~
Li Yi shook his head, stared at the exquisite wireless router, and said helplessly: "If I didn't know that there is a magical star network in this universe, I wouldn't be so upset. You little thing, take me to the star network."
, but only gave me an empty account, what’s the point?”
Li Yi was talking to himself late at night, not expecting anyone to answer him, but as soon as he finished speaking, the silver router actually spoke!
"Isn't there one star in the account? From a mathematical point of view, it cannot be counted as an empty account. Besides, this is the highest authority account with no purchase restrictions."
The little silver guy's voice was like a child's, and seemed to be filled with grievances?
Li Yi was startled suddenly, stood up from the chair, and said in surprise: "You can speak?"
"I am an artificial intelligence robot. I can not only speak, but also think."
Li Yi looked at the account name displayed on the computer screen, Exorcist, and asked curiously: "You said that the Exorcist account has the highest authority on the Star Network?"
"That's it. I am the first-generation artificial intelligence management robot of StarNet, or the first-generation machine for short. My existence is experimental. This account is also used by the administrator for testing, so there are no restrictions on purchasing permissions."
"According to the system records, after the first-generation machine was tested, it was sent for destruction for unknown reasons. The models later sold were all non-artificial intelligence models. I am the last first-generation machine. The Exorcist account is also the only one without
Unlimited accounts destroyed."
Li Yi frowned slightly, "But the account clearly says junior."
"That's because your force power has not even reached the first level. The system defaults to the elementary level. But you see, these armors and weapons were originally only sold to warriors recognized by the Star Network. You don't need to confirm at all.
You can also purchase at will regardless of your identity, which is the benefit of the highest purchase authority."
"When you have the second-level force power, you can naturally browse all the second-level catalog products, and even buy deadly poisons, battleships, and martial arts that are classified as forbidden arts."
"The primary account can trade one nearby star field, the second-level account can trade three nearby star fields, the third-level account can trade five nearby star fields, the fourth-level account can trade ten nearby star fields, and so on. In short, the higher your level, you can view
The longer the catalog list, the more choices there are.”
Li Yi was very surprised. It was indeed a thing made by advanced intelligent beings. It could even talk to a wireless router? And it looked very logical.
"Since it's an artificial intelligence robot, you should have a name, right?" Li Yi asked curiously.
"Yes, my name is 10111899235760473332134857435101..."
"Stop, stop, who can remember such a long name?" Li Yi quickly waved his hand to stop the smart router from reading this crazy string of numbers. He glanced at the Coke bottle on the table and said casually: "How about I call him from now on?"
You can have a drink."
"Execute the master's order, change the number to Coke, Didi, Didi, the change is completed." Unit No. 1 said in a unique simulated child voice, the voice was very cute.
The surface made of cola metal lights up with a blue light, forming a smiley face, which seems to be used to express one's emotions.
Li Yi thought for a moment, spread his arms and said: "Coke, although you are very powerful and the unlimited purchase account is very convenient to use, but there is only one star yuan in the account, what should I do?"
Cola laughed and said: "Things on the Star Network are expensive because they include transportation costs over thousands of miles. Centauri, the closest constellation to the earth, is 4.7 light years away, and other constellations cost hundreds or even thousands."
Tens of thousands of light years away."
"But you can try to buy test products. Some companies will regularly release new products and look for testers on the Star Network. Not only are these test products low-priced, but some companies with deep pockets will even provide free shipping, as long as the testers are willing to provide real tests.
Just report it, the only troublesome thing is that often everyone wants the free stuff and needs to be sold instantly.”
Li Yi's eyes lit up, "Instant sale, I understand this. It means that many people are grabbing the same product, and whoever grabs it gets it. You need to have quick eyes and quick hands. Similar activities are often held on the Earth Shopping Network."
"That's right." Coke said proudly: "I am a first-generation machine, and I have an unlimited account. Flash sales are what I am good at. And with the unlimited account, whether you buy or sell things, you don't have to pay taxes. It's free.
oh."
Li Yi couldn't help but beam with joy and said excitedly: "Coke, you are really a treasure! Why did Starlink give up such a good first-generation machine? It's such a pity, so please help me find one quickly.
Everything you can buy with Xing Yuan also includes postage."
"No problem." After hearing Li Yi's compliment, Cola showed a shy face. Not to mention, this little robot is quite cute, like an innocent child.
Huh~
Coke's search speed was extremely fast. After a few seconds, Coke actually found three trial products among hundreds of millions of products that could be purchased for only one yuan and included postage.
Star Network has regulations, and the minimum starting price is one star yuan.
"Smart toilet brush?" Li Yi frowned slightly. Although it is quite cost-effective to buy a high-end and domineering toilet brush for one star, it is not what he needs most at the moment. You know, he only has this one star in his account.
, spend it and it’s gone, Li Yi must treat it carefully.
The second type is called an automatic agricultural pest control machine. It is said that this machine can emit a sound wave that only pests can feel. It uses sound waves to eliminate 90% of the pests in farmland. This eliminates the need to use toxic chemical pesticides.
Insecticides are used, and the crops produced are more green and environmentally friendly.
This thing is much more practical, and Li Yi thought it could be considered, but when he saw the third product, he was immediately attracted by the introduction, and his eyes became sharp.
"Closed force training system, research and development codename: Venus, applicable level, primary level, scope, all intelligent life..." Li Yi read the explanation in the catalog carefully.
At this time, Coke's somewhat urgent voice suddenly came, "Master, if you want this Morning Star System, you must hurry up. The flash kill will begin in ten seconds."
Li Yi was startled. He was only looking at the instructions and didn't notice that it was so close to the start of the instant kill.
When Duan continued to suffer the consequences, Li Yi gritted his teeth and said loudly: "That's it, Coke, help me stop it!"
Huh~
In an instant, Coca-Cola entered a full-strength instant kill state!
Thirteen red lights were lit up on the originally clean silver cube, flashing crazily. Li Yi could even hear the electromagnetic sound emitted by the various electronic components in Coke's body running at full speed.
There was such a tense atmosphere, and the room was silent. Li Yi realized for the first time that shopping online can be so exciting!?
Ten seconds is not a long time.
Huh~
Suddenly, a blue light flashed, and all thirteen red lights on Coke went out...
Li Yi was slightly startled and asked nervously: "Coke, how are you?"
"I'm filling in the delivery address and signing a test agreement." Coke's cute voice replied.
Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief, "Since you're fine, the indicator light on your body suddenly went out just now. I thought something happened to you."
Coke smiled again, "You don't seem to care much about the results of the flash sale, but you care about me instead?"
Li Yi shrugged his shoulders and said: "I have never succeeded in participating in flash sales on the Internet before, so I don't have much hope, but if something happens to you, that is the most terrible thing. I can't even log in to the Star Network to check the information.
The chance is gone."
"Weird human being." Cola said with a smile: "I am made of reinforced liquid metal. Even a nuclear explosion cannot damage the electronic components in my body, so you can rest assured. Just now, in order to increase the chance of instant kill, I activated
With 16.8 million threads running, the energy consumption was a bit high, so after the flash sale ended, I quickly cooled down the processor. It was not due to a malfunction."
"As for this flash sale, it was a success! We grabbed the only beta version of the Venus system. I have already said that flash sales are my specialty! Unfortunately, according to the fair agreement of Star Network, if an account is successfully flashed,
You will not be allowed to participate in flash sale activities for the next thirty days..."
Li Yi nodded slightly, 16.8 million threads running? I wonder how powerful Coke's computing level monster is?
A cursory glance at the Star Network shows that even the simplest elementary force training system costs thousands of stars. Li Yi took a huge advantage this time.
"The latest news from Star Express Company is that the Daystar System will be shipped in fifteen minutes and will take twelve to sixteen hours, which is to be delivered this evening." Coke reported.
…
On the other side of the distant galaxy, there is a planet called LC-7731.
The 777-story building was brightly lit. On the top floor of the building, in an extremely luxurious office, a middle-aged fat man wearing expensive alloy glasses was banging his desk and furious.
"What? Was he beaten by someone else!?"
"What do you losers do for a living! I gathered all the technical elites of the entire company to kill one thing instantly, but it still didn't work! You guys are really pissing me off!"
Facing the middle-aged fat man's rage, a group of chicken-like subordinates lowered their heads, not daring to look at the fat man's twisted face.
The old man who looked like an engineer in the lead braced himself up and said tremblingly: "Boss, we have really done our best this time. The twelve quantum large-scale main computers are all operating at full capacity!"
"Even so, we still haven't been able to get this new product from Weichen Company. I think it may be due to two reasons. The bandwidth allocated to each router by the Star Network is the same, and the network speed is also the same. It is very likely that the other party's computing system is better than ours.
More powerful, or an account with higher permissions than us."
The fat middle-aged man was startled suddenly, stroking the few beards on his chin, and began to think.
A more powerful computing system? Higher privileged accounts?
StarNet is a strange company. Their technical means are incredible, and they have actually completed seamless connections throughout the universe!
You must know that it has been tens of thousands of years since the Star Network began to operate. Even with technology tens of thousands of years later, it is still unable to seamlessly connect the entire universe like the Star Network. It can be seen that the Star Network, the most advanced company in the universe,
Mysterious company, how powerful its technology is!
It is everyone’s dream to have a higher-level account. It is said that the highest-level account can view the entire universe without leaving home! Whatever you want, you will have it!
It’s just that StarNet, a weird company, has set many incredible restrictions on accounts. It’s not that just applying will increase your account level. Instead, StarNet observes the daily operations of each account, and when it thinks it is possible, it will take the initiative to upgrade you.
account level.
Waving his hands vigorously, the middle-aged fat man said helplessly: "Disband, the technical team will continue to search for the whereabouts of this Venus system. If you find it, you will buy it back for me, even if it is a sky-high price!"
"After all, this is the first time in many years that Mochen Machinery has launched a new force training system. They must have made great progress in the field of force development, and the entire star field is paying attention."
….
How did Li Yi know that across the interstellar internet, in the depths of the distant universe, how many people were staring at the light screen without sleep all night, with their eyes turning red?
The company that produces the Venus System is a giant-level company called Mochen Machinery. Not to mention the Bristol star field where the earth is located, even in star fields farther away, Mochen Machinery is a famous existence.
As an innovative company that has only emerged in the Bristol Star Territory in recent years, Weichen Machinery's creativity has reached a level that makes its opponents vomit blood. Not only in the Force training equipment, but also in all the fields that Weichen Machinery Company is involved in, there is no
It's not a subversive ending.
To put it simply, dust machinery is like Apple on Earth, always able to produce the most amazing industrial products and create incredible miracles one after another.
Micro-Chen Machinery launched the Macro Cultivation System seventy years ago. This system relied on collecting users' data and then customizing it for personalized training, occupying 90% of the market in the three nearby star regions in one fell swoop.
Seventy years later, the release of the Venus Machinery's replacement training system, Venus, naturally attracted the attention of the entire star field, especially those competitors of the Dust Machinery, who wanted to know first-hand information to determine how to fight.
plan.
There is no way, the creativity of Weichen Machinery is really too coquettish.
According to Starfield Rumors, Microchen Machinery has redefined what it means to be innovative, while its opponents to Microchen Machinery have redefined what it means to be stupid.
Fate is sometimes so strange. The whole star field is looking forward to the new generation of force training system of Mochen Company, but it is snatched away by Li Yi, a little man on earth. What makes people vomit blood is that the person involved, Li Yicai, only has 0.2
The force is just a trainee warrior...
Li Yi was in a state of high excitement when he came into contact with Coke and StarNet by chance.
Li Yi finally understood why everyone needed someone like Coke to log into the Starlink network, because the data information existing on this network was too complicated.
Coke is like an intelligent personal network assistant, helping Li Yi sort out the most useful information from the massive amount of information. Without him, Li Yi would be wandering around such a huge Starlink network by himself in a few days.
The information that explodes into the brain can cause schizophrenia.
The difference is that Coke is the first-generation machine and a true artificial intelligence model. The models produced later are all semi-intelligent and are far less advanced than Coke.
From this point of view, StarNet is indeed a strange company. For some unknown reason, their best products have never been released to the public. Those small robots produced in the same batch as Coke were all secretly destroyed.
Time passed so quickly, and before I knew it, the sky was bright outside the window.
Li Yi looked at the time and suddenly jumped up from his chair. He almost forgot that today was the first day of summer training and he would be late.
Pa~
Soft liquid metal bracelets stretched out from both sides, and Coke turned into the shape of a watch. It was very similar to the 1.5-inch smart watch that modern people often wear. It was put on Li Yi's left arm. No one would have guessed that this little
This guy is actually an artificial intelligence robot from an alien civilization.
Li Yi picked up his bicycle and hurriedly went downstairs. The place he lived in was the dormitory area of the original machinery factory. It was a bit old, but it was rare that the residents were all old neighbors, who were usually friendly and quiet.
When North America fell, Li Yi's parents happened to be on vacation there. As a result, they stayed in that strange land forever. This house was the only legacy left to Li Yi by his parents.
"Come on!" Aunt Wang, who had just returned from shopping for groceries, waved when she saw Li Yi in a hurry.
"knew!"
"The first day of summer training is related to your class placement after entering the Advanced Tactics School. Don't let your guard down!" Uncle Liu, who was doing morning training, saw Li Yi and shouted to him.
