Interdimensional science and technology starting from cyberpunk

After reading all the information, Elliot was even more silent, not knowing what to say.

". I usually call this kind of thing a scab." Elliot paused after speaking, "But is he right? I mean, I feel that it is nonsense that the British-French channel depends entirely on us."

[Lille: Actually, there is no big problem. The land in Folkestone is not suitable for large-scale factory construction. The cost is very high, and there is a probability that it will be affected by the continued rise in sea levels. ]

[Lille: So the three factories here are indeed responsible for maintaining the normal operation of the British-French channel. ]

[Lille: Once the calculated production capacity is not reached before the typhoon arrives, the channel lacks maintenance under natural disasters, which may indeed cause serious consequences. ]

Unlike most of the situations that Lille is familiar with, here, the United Kingdom is not the main founding country of the European Union. It is mainly because it encountered two major political changes and missed the period of maturity and reinforcement of European barriers.

However, relying on the successful transformation of network monitoring and the influence of old Britain in the world financial field and military industry, it finally successfully integrated into the European Union

Just not so core.

As the starting point of the Anglo-French channel on the British side, Folkestone does play the important role of connecting the UK with the European Union, and to a large extent, the UK is very dependent on this channel.

In the nearly two hundred years in this world, the sea level has risen, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis and storms have become more frequent, and the territory of the UK has shrunk seriously.

Secondly, the long political changes and military civil strife have greatly hindered development. Coupled with the population explosion caused by the plague, the core territory of the UK has been shrinking. When the situation stabilized and entered the development period, it ushered in the Internet crash.

Looking at Folkestone, you can imagine the overall state of the UK now:

An industrial city that serves as border logistics and smooth network. In addition to factories, there are workers' apartments. The so-called CBD area does not exist. Only integrated skyscrapers accommodate the offices of the European Union and companies.

This is a city that is absolutely not seen under the logic of Night City: this city is a purely functional city that contributes to other cities. It is not profitable itself and lacks high-value commercial activities.

But such a functional city is also pitifully small in scale. It is better to say that it is a town than a city.

Except for truly big cities like London, other regions are basically giving London blood transfusions.

But then again, if there is no London, no network monitoring and other "high-tech" enterprises in London, the European Union will not look down on the UK, and the UK's consumer goods and necessities will not be able to be turned around.

The value of the UK depends on London, and the stable operation of London depends on the connection with the European Union. If there is a problem in Folkestone.

The whole UK will enter a state of material shortage. The rich will definitely not be short of it, but the poor may starve to death one after another.

As a player who likes to point fingers on the Internet, doesn't Elliot understand?

It can't be said that he doesn't understand, but it is difficult for the human brain to think in parallel. Under the leadership of something like emotion, it is common to focus on only one aspect. When you work hard and have no money, of course you have to criticize the company.

But players like Elliot who like to point fingers are familiar with all the excuses for criticizing others, including this one: look ahead and consider the overall situation.

If it is for the sake of the overall situation, the factory in Folkestone really can't have any problems. Even if a lot of people in their factory die or get injured, as long as the equipment is good, they can quickly rest and repair.

In order to save his own life and the people in the factory, Elliot's method of stopping the production line will cause serious damage to the machine

In fact, according to the information sent back by Lille, the damage is greater than that caused by the cyber psychopath.

[Johnny: Humph. If I don't live a good life, others can't live a good life. Dying in the factory is really a threat. ]

[Johnny: Don't brainwash this kid, his brain is not working well. ]

Elliot was brought back to reality by Johnny's voice: "But. If there is another famine."

[Johnny: What's wrong with famine, at least I can live a few more months. ]

Johnny's figure appeared in the room, quickly scanning the things next to him.

[Johnny: But living a few more months without alcohol and cigarettes, this life is too miserable, I want to smoke - why don't you smoke? Why are there still people who don't smoke? 】

"Smoking is bad for the body. Workers' smoking will accelerate the consumption of the lung filter. Depending on the intensity of smoking, there will be 14% to 98% of excess loss. In terms of numbers, it means that the maintenance fee will increase by 5,000 to 20,000 yuan a year.

Compared to taking on more loans and doing heavier work, I prefer to drink soda honestly. By the way, smoking will make you live shorter!"

[Johnny: Bullshit, why don't you talk? ]

[Lille: He really doesn't need to smoke. There is nothing to numb himself. ]

Elliot was stunned for a moment when he heard this: not only because of Lille's words, but also because Johnny's shadow began to flicker.

The surrounding light tubes began to dim as Johnny disappeared, the application on the computer screen was closed, and black and white lines flashed. Elliot's unrepaired prosthesis was slightly hot, and the heat from the brain-computer interface made him feel that the whole room began to heat up.

Squeak.

The artificial eye suddenly lost all signals. This less than a second of darkness was neither long nor short: long enough to clearly feel the darkness, and short enough that Elliot didn't have time to scream.

【Lille: Done.】

When the darkness dissipated, the dishevelled man with a silver arm disappeared, replaced by a metal iron man wearing a cloak.

It was Lil who appeared in Elliot's visual system.

Johnny is a pure digital soul, the black wall will not react to him, but Lil and Muramasa are not.

But now Lil can be a special AI that can avoid the black wall -

or, he is a unique special AI.

Lil only appeared in Elliot's head, and the latter had a feeling that his brain was out of his control. It felt like something was pressing on his heart. I don't know if it was a psychological effect or if there was really something wrong with his brain.

"Hey, big brother, I'm laid off now. I still have more than 4,000 yuan in my pocket. Considering my previous consumption, I estimate that it will be exhausted next month."

Lille glanced at him: "I have taken over the apartment. You don't need to spend money on daily expenses."

After saying that, Lille muttered in his heart: I didn't expect that I would fall to the point of helping others to make false accounts to avoid daily expenses such as rent, water and electricity.

"Really?"

Lille didn't speak, but looked down at Elliot with an expressionless face. The latter suddenly lay on the sofa:

"Big brother! Teach me cyber technology! I want it."

"I think what you need to learn most now is not cyber technology." Lille interrupted him, "Your brain and your thoughts are what need to be armed first.

Muramasa taught you for so long. According to his feedback, you started thinking about other things halfway through your learning."

[Muramasa: Mainly some fantasies, fantasizing about having money and power to mate with humans and being bullied by the strong first, and then bullying the weak again. 】

Elliot jumped up after hearing this, his face flushed: "How can you still peek at what I'm thinking!"

[Muramasa: There are a lot of such plots in your memory. Just compare your physiological conditions when you watch these things and you will know clearly. ]

Lille looked at Elliot's cowardly look and shook his head helplessly.

If they were both new to the cyberpunk world, then meeting V was like drawing an SSR; entering this kid's head helplessly was like...

Did you draw an R? Of course not, it was just after entering the game that the game company went bankrupt.

Lille waved his hand: "Let's go out for a walk."

"Okay."

Lille disappeared into the air, and Elliot, who was full of curiosity and expectations for the future, heard this sentence:

[Lille: What do you think of the person who fired you? ]
