Chapter 238: Ji Ye’s Decision

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“SkyNet!”

Ji Ye’s eyes suddenly glittered.

SkyNet was quite infamous in Earth civilization.

As the ultimate BOSS in The Terminator series, it was definitely a representative of the anti-human artificial intelligence.

Also, its level was shown as special, and its price was 99,999 Civilization Coins, higher than that of many Transcendent Rank-5 items.

Of course, it meant that the item had huge potentials!

After all, it was an advanced artificial intelligence that had awakened its self-consciousness and evolved to the point where it could travel through time!

Although this SkyNet computer must still be at the beginning phase of having self-consciousness and couldn’t be so powerful yet, a computer was a necessity for the Twin Dragon Mount fort that was interested in developing Earth technologies.

In particular, this SkyNet computer had stored abundant files on military technologies!

Another way for the Twin Dragon Mount fort to develop modern technologies was to get files and designs from the Confederation Office with “Personal Honor”, memorize the information, and then copy it to the Land of Inheritance, as they had done with the Serpent of Death.

However, that wouldn’t be very effective and could only be used on simple weapons. The sniper rifle last time cost them a lot of time. Besides, logging off would cost them the power of providence too and couldn’t be used very frequently. It was needless to mention the value of the technological files in the SkyNet computer.

“SkyNet! Wouldn’t such an intelligent computer who boasts self-consciousness rebel someday?”

However, Ji Ye had his doubts.

After all, SkyNet was described as “anti-human” in the background!

“Since it is a merchandise that the City of Humans sells, it is naturally safe.

“However, nothing is absolutely safe, is it?” Yu Long, the manager in a purple dress, smiled and said.

“That’s right!”

Ji Ye nodded.

It was like the heroes who arrived at the settlement. They all had their own tempers too.

If they were disrespected and dissatisfied with their settlement, it was possible that they would rebel!

The case was the same with SkyNet. Since it was presented by the City of Humans, it was naturally friendly with human beings, and it was unlikely to rebel unless it endured injustices.

So, should he choose “SkyNet” or not?

At this moment, Ji Ye clearly had two choices.

Firstly, he could choose an item to strengthen himself, such as B. F. Sword and Hulk’s Serum.

Secondly, he could also choose an item that could strengthen the whole settlement, such as the SkyNet main computer and the Hermit Bean seeds.

The former could make himself even stronger than other players and heroes.

The latter, on the other hand, could enhance the whole settlement and give the Twin Dragon Mount fort more edge!

What should he choose?

Ji Ye’s eyes flashed as he looked between “CPH4” and “SkyNet”!

“I choose... SkyNet!”

Eventually, Ji Ye made a decision.

He gave up CPH4, which could turn someone into a god in the original movie, and Hulk’s Serum, which was very popular on Earth.

Instead, he chose SkyNet, which was of great help to the Twin Dragon Mount fort in the current phase!

“SkyNet?”

After Ji Ye informed everybody in the room of his decision, the players of the Twin Dragon Mount fort were all briefly stunned. In particular, when they learned that Ji Ye had abandoned CPH4 that could turn a human into a god for SkyNet which wasn’t of much help for his personal growth, a lot of people changed their facial expressions.

As for the heroes, they looked at Ji Ye with more respect after they learned the differences between the two items!

“Hehe!”

In the end, Mister Bug grimaced and said, “Since Master has already bought a computer, I might as well buy the corresponding facilities and see if I can set up a local area network after we’re back. After all, it’s rather boring to train all the time. Right, Old An, why don’t you develop a game for us to play...”

“I just noticed a protective array that could cover about a ten-kilometer radius. That should be useful for us.”

“I have the blueprint of an ‘Electromagnetic Cannon’.”

After that, other players discussed with each other the items available to them and came up with an inventory of the most practical goods.

“Right, Manager Yu Long...” After the decision was made, Ji Ye asked curiously, “Will the goods we’ve ordered be delivered to us?”

“I’m sorry, but you’ll have to pick up the goods by yourself where they are sold. Of course, if the goods are sold by the Three Thousand Restaurant, we’ll certainly deliver them to you,” Yu Long said with an apologetic expression on his face.

Naturally, what a restaurant sold could only be food ingredients rather than A. I. products such as SkyNet.

“Thank you very much!”

...

An hour later, Ji Ye, Mister Bug, and a few other people were on their way to pick up the items they ordered.

The City of Humans, as a “city”, naturally didn’t just have a simple Three Thousand Restaurant.

As a matter of fact, although the City of Humans still wasn’t too large because not many people had entered it, buildings such as restaurants, public bathhouses, weapon stores, and even stores of mysterious materials could be found everywhere. The goods that the players ordered with their City of Humans cards must be picked from those stores.

That was undoubtedly rather troublesome, but maybe there was a good reason for that.

“Here we are! This is the place!”

They didn’t stop until they reached a store that had nothing but a board with the letter of “X” hanging before it.

“X? What a mysterious name!”

Guo Wei, who was wearing a pair of high-tech glasses, looked around curiously.

The decorations of the store weren’t exactly too mysterious.

Because of the Twin Dragon Mount fort’s background, the store appeared in the ancient style of Chidragon in their eyes.

However, some of the details showed a hint of modernity, such as the turnstile that automatically opened and the hologram that could be projected to midair.

Another example was the way the goods were picked...

“Customer 215, please fetch your goods from the third window!”

“Customer 216, please go to the fourth zone...”

“Customer 217...”

“There are so many people here?”

Looking at the bunch of people who were waiting inside the store, Mister Bug was more or less dumbfounded.

“The City of Humans will be closed tomorrow, so a lot of people have decided to use up their Civilization Coins,” said Li Qing.

Another reason should be that this store was selling intelligent and high-tech products.

For the players from Earth, most of them regarded the technologies from Earth as a secondary direction of development in the current phase!

However, not everybody had to wait in line.

For example, when a man who had a square face and dark skin, likely from a yellow race, showed his card, he was instantly welcomed into a booth on one side by a dealer in the store.

It was because his card was emitting the luxurious color of gold.

“It’s a Golden Card!”

“Is he from Sandia?”

“Probably. I think this one looks like the robot protagonist in one of the thriller movies, right?”

Upon seeing that, the players who were waiting in line whispered to each other.

Although everybody communicated telepathically in the City of Humans, and it was impossible to tell one’s origin by the language they spoke, it was still possible to tell which country they were probably from based on their behaviors and clothes.

For example, Ji Ye could tell that some of the players that were waiting in line in the lobby belonged to Jaipan, Ameagle, Maya, and Northern Bear.

Of course, since one could freely choose their appearance in the City of Humans, the conclusion might not be entirely accurate.

For example, Ji Ye had entered the store with an appearance that was different from his real self.

“Welcome to our store!”

After Ji Ye and the others stepped into the “X” store, a receptionist, who had golden-blond hair and a pair of enormous earrings, greeted them at the door.

However, her voice sounded rather flat.

“I ordered something, and I’m here to pick it up,” Ji Ye said.

“Please show your card, dear customer!” the tall blond woman said.

Ji Ye took out his Diamond Card, and the dazzling light of a diamond instantly filled the store.

“Huh? What is that light? I don’t think I’ve seen it before!”

The players from other countries who noticed Ji Ye’s card were all more or less curious.

The City of Humans had intentionally tried to build an atmosphere of competitiveness. When a person took out his card, the radiance of the card would be seen by others.

“Is it a Silver Card?”

“That can’t be right. It isn’t the color of the Silver Card!”

“It can’t be a Bronze Card yet. The light of the Bronze Card is gray and hazy...”

“Esteemed guest, we’re delighted that you chose our store. Please wait a moment. Our manager will be out in a minute.”

The tall woman who had blond hair, however, suddenly had a glow of data stream in her eyes.

It was slightly weird that a blond white woman addressed him in the traditional way in his mother tongue.

However, the communication was purely a mental one anyway, and the sense of disagreement wasn’t too severe!

“Esteemed guest, please come with me!”

After only several seconds, a man who appeared to be a middle-aged male walked out and led Ji Ye and his companions into a VIP booth.

“What’s happening?”

“Did she say that the manager would receive him in person?”

“Even the hero of Sandia who had a Golden Card didn’t have such a privilege... Is this man’s card more advanced than a Golden Card?”

“Probably... Right, what’s the level above Gold? Dark Gold or Platinum?”

The players who were waiting in line with Silver and even Bronze Cards whispered to each other in surprise.

Clearly, the Diamond Card that Ji Ye received was so rare in the current phase that most battle participants had never seen it.

As a matter of fact, when the middle-aged manager saw Ji Ye and his companions later on, the surging silver data streams in his eyes, which seemed to have changed him into a different person, and his tone of surprise clearly proved that too.

“A Diamond Card that has such a high credit limit has already shown up?”
