I live in a desert island property

Chapter 453 A market composed of 4,600 civilizations... everyone wants to buy everything, want everything!

Zhang Ming directly asked in spiritual language: "Is it free to join that association? Can I get answers to whatever questions I want to ask? Is there such a good thing in the world?"

The other party was stunned for a moment and replied: "Of course... it's not free. Every naturally born extraordinary person means peerless talent and is the recruitment target that my civilization longs for."

"But no matter how high the innate talent is, it is limited. Only inheritance, experience summary and research can broaden the future development path."

"We, Wanhai Civilization, have a broad mind and welcome capable people with lofty ideals to join us on the way forward."

"You need to sign an agreement before you can get more privileges... Signing this agreement is equivalent to joining the Wanhai Civilization."

"Furthermore, our Wanhai civilization recognizes dual civilization origins, and you can still serve your original civilization."

"If you are willing, I can introduce the corresponding process here..."

Zhang Ming immediately understood what he gained and what he lost. He joined Wanhai Civilization for no reason and must be subject to some kind of restrictions.

Aren't foreign extraordinary beings like him just free experimental subjects?

He was used to living this unrestrained life now, so he immediately refused with a smile: "There is another question, why can't extraordinary people participate in the death arena? Can't they make some money?"

"You are joking. Many extraordinary people are not mentally stable, and allowing them to participate in competitive activities can easily lead to riots."

"In addition, extraordinary people often pay huge prices for their fights, triggering endless civilized hatred." The staff member explained, "The number of extraordinary people is not large, so we still encourage peace as the most important thing."

"Of course, if you have an undying hatred for a certain transcendent, you can also go to the Death Arena... The ticket cost for a transcendent war usually exceeds 1,000 units of currency, and the winner takes all. In contrast, the spirit The limit will not exceed 100."

So 1,000 yuan for an extraordinary person’s life? Zhang Ming sneered in his heart, this world is really crazier than he imagined.

"How many extraordinary people are there in our community?"

The batman spread his hands: "This is a confidential number. I'm sorry, I don't know. Even if I knew it, I couldn't tell you."

Zhang Ming stepped back and asked, "How many civilizations are there in the trading market? Isn't this a confidential number?"

This time I got a detailed explanation.

"In the past 10,000 years, our Wanhai Civilization has discovered more than 100,000 civilizations."

"We estimate that the total number of civilizations in this world's community is more than one million, but despite all our efforts, the number discovered is only ten percent of the total number."

"The total number of resident civilizations in the current trading market is approximately 4,600."

Four thousand six hundred?

so much!

Not only Zhang Ming, but also Lao Wang and a large group of human representatives behind him were shocked.

The number of civilizations is really the same as Chinese cabbage.

Seemingly sensing Zhang Ming's confusion, the staff member explained: "You have to know that as long as you come here once, a normal civilization will send a certain number of people to station here."

"And our trading market has lasted for three thousand years."

What dynasty was there three thousand years ago? The Kingdom of Bactria was still in the Western Zhou Dynasty, ancient Greece was in the Mycenaean period, and the twentieth dynasty of ancient Egypt was under the rule of Pharaoh Ramesses.

At that time, Wanhai Civilization had already established a magnificent trading market.

The batman said proudly: "There are about 1,300 civilizations among them. In the long past, the main civilizations have become extinct due to various reasons. Only a small number of diplomats stationed here remain here, and they have further evolved into Local towns. These towns can produce a lot of living resources, including food, clothing and other daily necessities."

"My Wanhai civilization will not drive them away at will. As long as they are willing to work and serve my civilization, they can stay here for a long time. Maybe one day, they will rise again? Of course, if they give up all cultural heritage, That way we can become a part of Wanhai Civilization, and we don’t care about racial differences.”

Zhang Ming understood, that is, some civilizations suddenly became extinct, but diplomats remained here.

So these diplomats who survived could only work for Wan Hai Civilization to make a living.

This thing sounds a bit sad, but it is also normal in the world.

I remember that when the Soviet Union collapsed, there was still an astronaut in the universe who had not yet been brought back.

When he woke up and found that his great motherland was gone, how could he feel so sad? In the end, the unfortunate man floated in the space station for a year, and Russia, which took over the Soviet Union's position, brought him back.

…

After registering their information, all 5,000 human representatives received their own identity cards and were able to eat and drink for free, take transportation for free, and use various service functions for the first five years.

However, fees become payable after five years.

"Everyone, we must always remember the purpose of our coming here! Maintain discipline! Keep secrets strictly!"

"We're not here to enjoy ourselves!"

Wang Fumin had experienced an expedition and had rich management experience, and he quickly managed the team in an orderly manner.

He divided the five thousand people into several groups, and at least a thousand people were needed for civilized foreign exchanges.

When guests from other civilizations come to visit or buy things, someone has to take care of them, right?

Market information retrieval, identification and certification of unique technologies, bulk transaction and trade trends, etc., all require a large number of manpower.

After this series of activities were arranged, the five thousand people quickly used it.

Then people came to the first important place to visit: the unique technology trading market.

The ultimate purpose of this journey is to purchase more unique technologies to increase the survival probability of the people on earth in the disaster of the netherworld.

So we have to figure out how many unique technologies there are here, and how much money is enough to use them?

The plane flew for a total of 2 hours before arriving at the unique technology trading market.

This place can be described in one word: big, too big.

On the surface, it looks like an extremely tall building, covering an area that may be as large as a small city. And there are actually 8 such small cities, which means that it is almost impossible to visit the entire market in a few days. possible.

There are also smart screens outside the building. You can directly check the business of this building through the screen.

There are a lot of foreign civilizations here, but they are scattered over such a large area, and their numbers seem to be very thin.

Zhang Ming found a screen and swiped a few times. Because they were all written in Wan Hai Civilization, he couldn't quite understand them.

Human translators are working as fast as possible to translate into human language, but it will still take several months.

So I just wandered around.

"Everyone, let's move separately and wander around first. Each team is equipped with a translator." Wang Fumin said to the team, "You are all elites in the industry and have a deep understanding of what we humans are missing. First record the information, When the time comes, they will all be purchased together.”

"If you have any questions, use the earphone to contact me."

"do you understand?"

"Understood!"

Soon, everyone separated to explore.

Unique technology is simply an application of strong idealistic rules. It’s really amazing. It has almost everything you can imagine, and there’s nothing you can’t do.

There are many things that humans have never heard of, and there are not even specific translations.

For example, a weapon called "Water Drop" looks like a real water drop, but it is almost indestructible!

It is indestructible in the true sense!

Even if it hits the demon god, it is indestructible and can create a big hole.

But the only difficulty is that you have to defeat the Demon God first.

And even if a hole is made, there is actually no big harm, not to mention the price. The price of one "water drop" is 2 units of the source of the world!

There is also something called a "Klein coil", which can generate a super strong magnetic field! How strong is the magnetic field? It can suck out metal elements from living things!

And through the "Klein coil", as long as enough energy is input, the magnetic field intensity seems to be able to increase endlessly.

"Can't superconductivity work?" Zhang Ming asked, seeing the enthusiasm of the scientists.

"No, no, superconductors also have an upper magnetic field limit. Strong magnetic fields can have too many effects. To give a simple example, strong magnetic fields can turn chlorine ions in water into chlorine gas. It has many industrial uses; it can be used to make large-scale Electromagnetic gun; even our nuclear fusion project must rely on strong magnetic fields to complete magnetic confinement!"

An expert wearing glasses seemed to have discovered a treasure. His face was full of red light and he said: "As long as we buy a few Klein coils and go back, we are confident that we can complete the nuclear fusion project within five years. With such a strong magnetic field, in three years , completed within three years! I’ll tell you if it’s not completed! Mr. Zhang, you must buy a few and take them back.”

Wang Fumin's face trembled twice. Although the energy problem is a problem that mankind has not yet solved.

But relying solely on nuclear fission and solar energy, humans are not short of energy for the time being...

He was still patient and asked about the price.

The civilization that sells "Klein coils" is called ferromagnetic civilization. It looks strange. Their head is like a black stone, but there are some biological tissues under the stone.

The black stone man turned his head to look at them, and said in a calm tone: "The first type of Klein coil, each priced at 5 units of World Source. The second type, priced at 100 units of World Source, has better performance. , the magnetic field generated per unit energy is stronger; the third type sells for 500 and is the strongest coil that our ferromagnetic civilization can create!"

"We also sell the basic principles and manufacturing methods of the first type of Klein coil, the source of the world worth 5,000 units!"

Zhang Ming swallowed, 5,000 was too expensive.

Well, if you can completely buy a unique technology, that's not impossible.

"What about the second and third types of coils?"

"I'm sorry, we haven't figured out the specific principles yet. We need the help of the world's will to manufacture them. Only the first type of coil has been completely explored and does not need the help of the world's will." The black stone man was quite sincere and continued. In that mechanical tone, he said, "If you are worried about deception, you can request the intervention of Wanhai Civilization."

"Of course, under normal circumstances, just buying a few coils will be enough."

"My ferromagnetic civilization business has been going on for a thousand years. It's more than just one deal. There's no need to shoddy products!"

In addition to "water droplets" and "Klein coils", there is also a higher-scale "electromagnetic gun", which is the ultimate weapon developed by ferromagnetic civilization, the "electromagnetic penetrating gun".

If this ultimate weapon is accelerated to the limit, it can accelerate "water droplets" to sub-light speed, and can directly penetrate the moon. No matter who you are, extraordinary or immortal, they will all be penetrated by one shot.

Of course, the premise is that you have to hit...

The "electromagnetic penetrating gun" still has many shortcomings. For example, it requires electromagnetic acceleration, is difficult to hit enemies at long distances, is extremely large, generates high heat, etc.

Therefore, ferromagnetic civilization also acquires other unique technologies to improve these shortcomings.

The power of the ferromagnetic civilization has exceeded human expectations. This is obviously a technological civilization that is good at the electromagnetic direction, and almost all the technology trees are focused on this aspect.

When he heard that humans had unique cooling technology, the stone man immediately became interested, exchanged business cards with the human representatives, and said that there would be a discount for large quantities.

"This is the benefit of having unique technology!"

"Otherwise, they won't bother to talk to us at all..." The human expert couldn't help but complain a few words in private.

But this trip is really eye-opening. There are so many good things in just one ferromagnetic civilization shop, and there is nothing more prosperous than this in the trading market.

During the rest of the stroll, the various colorful and novel technologies dazzled people’s eyes.

For example, aerospace aircraft.

There is a civilization that sells space planes that are more powerful than humans.

It is not nuclear power, but a power that uses ideal energy.

The fuselage of the aircraft is even made of a kind of tree bark, making it faster and lighter. The only trouble is that there are no space props inside the aerospace aircraft, so it cannot carry much weight.

The price of World Source is only 80 units, which is not too expensive.

Another example is a biological mining machine.

It looks like a flower-like plant that can quickly dig up minerals from the seabed.

Due to human industrial capabilities, the cost of ocean operations at a depth of 1,000 meters is a bit high. The deeper the ocean, the higher the difficulty and cost.

But this biological mining machine can dig 3,000 meters of the seabed!

The price is not expensive, only 50 units of the source of the world!

Another example is a kind of world nemesis - the spirit bomb, which is about as powerful as a million-ton hydrogen bomb.

1 unit of the Source of the World can buy a Spirit Bomb!

Let’s not talk about the manufacturing cost. The most important thing is that the bomb is easy to store and has no maintenance fee. The hydrogen bomb is not easy to store!

We have to admit that science is a worldview and methodology for objectively understanding things, not a dogma or something rigid.

When idealism and materialism are combined, the upper limit derived is so exaggerated that even in a small field, it is difficult to fully understand the wisdom of a civilization.

In the unique technology trade market, people also discovered a unique potato that is rich in nutrients.

The most important thing is that it contains a component of the blood of mythical beasts, which can stimulate the growth genes of living organisms and carry out secondary development. It can be said to be an all-natural and harmless food for strengthening the body.

If humans buy this thing, although their overall strength cannot rise by one level, half a level is still enough!

"When I asked about the price, I actually asked for 3,000 units of the Source of the World, ten thousand Hai coins, three potatoes, and what kind of non-publicity agreement do I need to sign?"

"Only three potatoes."

"I asked him why it was so expensive. The guy said that after buying this plant, it can reproduce in large quantities. Three plants can be eaten by everyone, so of course it is expensive."

"What is the non-disclosure agreement?"

"After signing this agreement, once the potatoes are spread outside, all the powerful people who violate the agreement will be killed violently. It means that these potatoes are their exclusive business, and we can no longer be second-rate dealers."

Zhang Ming touched his chin. This agreement was similar to the unique technology of Zhengqi Civilization.

Of course, in addition to potatoes, there are other foods, such as fungi, insects, seeds of various plants, etc., all of which are good for improving physical fitness.

If you buy it back and can no longer reproduce, you can sell it relatively cheaply. One unit of World Source, or ten thousand sea coins, can buy hundreds of thousands of tons.

But if it can be reproduced and expanded, it will definitely be expensive to sell, and an exclusive agreement will have to be signed.

The trading market has been open for so many years and has long formed a relatively reasonable price system, making it extremely difficult to pick up the slack.

And humans don’t have the ability or eyesight to pick things up, so it’s very rare not to be picked up!

Just like this, Zhang Ming found something good that made him excited: "combat protective clothing"!

This kind of combat uniform has excellent defensive performance. Whether it is kinetic energy, thermal energy or mental attacks, it can absorb part of it and has excellent elasticity.

After putting on this kind of combat uniform, even if he turns into a 100-meter giant, he will not be burst. It is really a weapon that will not be exposed in a fight.

Of course, the value is a bit expensive, the cheapest one costs 5 yuan, and the most expensive one costs 100 yuan!

It’s really expensive…

Lao Zhang had money in his hands, but he still couldn't bear it.

"Are you talking about those golden clothes? Those are the royal battle uniforms produced by our Frieza civilization. Only the royal family of our clan can wear them! Selling them for 100 yuan is already very cheap."

This alien looks a bit like a locust and is good at weaving. Zhang Ming wondered, the clothes worn by the four-armed weirdo he captured alive seemed to have been produced here?

The cheapest kind of clothes?

"What, you want to buy how the clothes are produced? To be honest, it's the silk that an insect spins."

"Our tribe does not sell this kind of insect to the outside world."

Zhang Ming shook his head and left: "I'll bear it! I'll buy it again when my shells appreciate in value!"

The trader in front is even more exaggerated. It covers an extremely large area, maybe as big as half a town.

Several muscular giants with horns were guarding the entrance of the store, and upon further inspection they turned out to be the head of Wanhai Civilization.

Zhang Ming glanced at those giants. They were not extraordinary people, but for some reason they had far exceeded their physical limits. It was just that they did not master the strong rules.

The Cave in the Pot, the most famous space prop, is sold here.

The diameter of the "Cave in the Pot" is about 100 meters. It looks like a huge jade pot made of mutton-fat white jade, exuding exquisite beauty.

You can enter the "cave in the pot" from the mouth of the jade pot directly above it.

Zhang Ming had already grabbed a cave in a pot, and he had a space gourd, so he wasn't very interested in it, but there were actually quite a lot of civilizations here to visit.

Obviously The Cave in the Pot is a best-seller because it involves space theory and specific idealistic rules.

Space theory is indeed a very mysterious thing, related to many advanced technologies.

However, civilizations did not communicate much with each other.

When major civilizations meet each other, they often stay away from each other and visit their own places. Only civilizations with a good relationship will chat a few words, while civilizations that they don't know basically don't talk.

Obviously, only in professional situations can civilizations communicate.

When passing by various civilizations on the roadside, everyone basically stops communicating and doesn't even say hello...

This seems to be an unspoken rule.

After all, there is nothing trivial among civilizations. In an environment with superpowers, it is too easy to cause trouble. Even Wanhai Civilization cannot understand everything. Who wants to cause trouble for themselves?

The exhibition hall of Wanhai Civilization is very large. In addition to the cave in the pot, you can also buy some extremely advanced defense devices.

This defense device relies on the "source of the world" as its energy source and uses the principle of space folding to resist external attacks. When activated, it is like a layer of light soap bubbles.

And this kind of device is divided into several levels. The lowest level only costs 100 yuan of Wanhai coins to buy a set, and the highest level costs 5,000 yuan of Wanhai coins!

"An advanced defensive force field that relies on the source of the world as energy, even the lowest level device, can resist the attack of the shadow beast!"

Zhang Ming took a breath. He had encountered this defense device before when fighting enemies on flying saucers. If he hadn't discovered the weak point in space through the "Eye of Time and Space", he really wouldn't have been able to break through it with his superpowers!

Even the price is not too expensive, 100 for a minimum standard set is really not expensive...

Defense technology is urgently needed by every civilization. It is easy to attack, but relatively difficult to defend. This is true for individuals and the entire civilization.

"No wonder Wan Hai Coin has replaced the Source of the World to a certain extent and has a certain degree of acceptance. The goods sold by Wan Hai Civilization are indeed awesome enough, and every civilization wants a few sets."

"In the past, we didn't seem to have heard of this technology..."

"Is it the latest development?"

In this exhibition hall, Zhang Ming and others met Gondor and others from Honggang Civilization.

It was also the first time for Hong Steel people to come to this trading market. They were stunned and it directly subverted their cognition.

In fact, what they know about "Wan Hai Civilization's community is the strongest" was also heard from other civilizations. "Wan Hai Civilization has advanced transportation and trades everywhere." They only have a vague understanding.

Coming here is just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. It is so novel. This trade market is more majestic and prosperous than the legend!

It really subverted imagination!

As long as there is enough source of the world, it seems to be able to control the entire universe and move the entire sea of ​​demons!

(PS: Please give me a monthly pass! September is over, and I am planning to add an update to the monthly pass in October. I have never done it before and have no experience. How about 1,000 monthly passes for 2,000 words? During the double period, it is equivalent to 500 monthly passes and an additional chapter. It should be considered more sincere, starting in October.)
