I, the only superpower on earth

The hologram disappeared.

As for the "sentinels" who were originally used for video broadcasting, the liquid metal that made up their bodies also fell in front of every clansman in the hall of Canbilt Manor during a burst of changes in form, turning into a smartphone Thick and thin metal blocks with a faint iridescent screen on them.

"This is what Navalli said... the 'terminal information device' provided to individuals?"

Roberts glanced at this thing, knowing that it must have the functions of real-time monitoring and background information transmission, he was bored for a while, but he still picked it up.

After all... the trend of the situation.

But when the palm touched the metal block, the rainbow light of the film on it flickered, and a pleasant voice sounded in Roberts' ears. With the explanation of that voice, he immediately understood the usage of this terminal device .

"This device has a variety of transformation functions, including 'handheld mode', 'watch mode', 'glasses mode'... and the 'semi-access mode' of neural connection? The last mode allows people to be in a semi-virtual In this world, far more advanced than past VR and AR devices?"

Robles' pupils shrunk.

This is a black technology product that far surpasses the technical level of smart device manufacturers in the past. No matter when it is launched at any time, it can absolutely sweep all PCs, mobile phones, and VR glasses on the market, creating a market of more than ten trillion US dollars, and at least able to Several hegemonic companies with a market value of trillions of dollars were born.

However, on Navalli Evans, the founder of the "New America", it seems to be just a policy promotion tool and a voting tool.

Putting the cloud in his heart aside for the time being, Roberts did not try the semi-access mode of the device at the first time, but just let it wear on his wrist in the form of a watch.

But when he raised his head and looked around, he saw the scene of the Canbilt clansmen excitedly connecting the metal block with their own nerves, amazed and amazed.

"This... this world..."

"Oh my god, I feel like I can actually touch it!"

"It can cooperate with neural signals to simulate sight, hearing and smell...even some sense of touch!"

"Oh my god, it's like the world in "Real Name, True Name" and "Ready Player One"... This public forum is actually a real 'forum'! The square has been magnified countless times, and you can really walk around in it!"

Roberts frowned slightly.

In his eyes, all the juniors in the Canbilt family, as long as they are under the age of 30, are enthusiastically and tirelessly trying to experience the virtual world at this moment, even members over the age of 30 , and most of them are gradually immersed in it.

There are only a very small number of family elders who are as old and respected as himself and have gone through the years. They did not try it at the first time, but looked at the surrounding clansmen with complicated eyes like him, full of prudence and dissatisfaction.

...Oh, I almost overlooked that among the juniors, there is one person who does not use the semi-access mode.

The young man named Fernando was sliding his finger on the screen of the mobile phone simulated by the terminal device with a serious face, using this method to absorb information in a way that is far behind the semi-access mode.

Robles' brows stretched slightly.

He coughed lightly.

"Ahem——"

This light cough was like thunder, causing many family members who were still immersed in the half-connected virtual world to tremble, immediately cut off the virtual experience, and returned to reality.

Even though there were still a small number of people who hadn't recovered, they came to their senses under the movement of people around them pulling their clothes, and took off the device in a bit of embarrassment.

Robles pretended not to see their small movements, and there was no fluctuation in his eyes.

But at the same time, based on the reactions of those family members, he has sorted out the ranks on a list in his mind, secretly arranging the future and destiny of these people.

He looked at Fernando:

"Fernando, what do you think about the new ruler's announcement just now?"

he asked the young man kindly.

Fernando smiled.

"Navalli's announcement in the hologram just now was after Uncle Roberts revealed the signal that he wanted to communicate with him through the 'sentry'-and before that, his speech had been cut off dozens of times. seconds.

"I think this is a sign, a sign that he has indeed heard his uncle's willingness to cooperate. And his subsequent national announcement speech through a hologram is his response to his uncle's wish after careful consideration."

With a few easy words, Fernando transformed the embarrassment that Roberts offered to communicate but was ignored just now into another statement that seems reasonable.

But Roberts was unmoved and asked:

"Oh, what's the response?"

Fernando seems to have thought about this question a long time ago:

"—I want to confirm whether our Campbell has the strength to cooperate with him."

He went on to explain fluently:

"For the rulers at the top of the country, the system itself is just a tool to achieve their own goals and desires. Whether it is nominally private or public, there is no difference in essence. But for the majority of the people at the bottom, they will In order to pursue short-sighted and short-term interests, they have devoted themselves to the hypocritical slogans of 'common property' and 'equal distribution of wealth'.

"...I think that Lord Navalli is not a fanatical utopian who just wants to carry out some kind of social practice. He also wants to see, in this kind of big debate and During the vote, what kind of ideological power can our media system and propaganda tools have, can it reverse the majority of people's pursuit of equal wealth, and finally allow the United States to maintain the great capital private system.

"If this can be achieved, there is no doubt that the power in our hands will be more valued by him—but there is also a possibility that he wants us to expose our full power. In this way, he will Can wipe us out without any worries."

At the beginning, Fernando's words were filled with high spirits, which made everyone around him feel happy. But at the end, the atmosphere of another possibility suddenly took a turn for the worse, making the others tense again, looking anxiously at the terminal device that they just got, which was transformed from "Sentry".

However, whether it was the beginning or the end, his expression never changed, as if he didn't know that there were a lot of Navari's "eyes and ears" beside him.

Roberts listened to his speech calmly, and asked:

"So, Fernando—what's your conclusion?"

Fernando raised his head.

"Of course I will go all out!

"From now on, race against time to cooperate with several other families in the field of public opinion, so that the people of the United States realize the value of the current system—and at the same time, let the Lord Navalli know that we elites The rationality of class existence. Let him understand that he may be able to destroy a 'Kampilter', but this country will always call and need the next 'Kampilter'. And we, can be his most powerful assistants !"

Robles gazed at the young man's confident face.

He finally smiled.

"……very good.

"Fernando, I'll leave this matter to you. I can promise you that if you can do everything perfectly, then you will become the vice-chairman of the 'Campilter Foundation'!"
