Urban Sims

Northwest of the imperial capital, 30 kilometers away from the city.

On a huge construction site, hundreds of thousands of workers are busy working.

In the north of the construction site, at the foot of a mountain, there is also a rather special group of "workers", numbering about a hundred people, who are responsible for their work.

Conan Cecil was one of these hundred people.

At this moment, he was standing under a two-meter-high earth wall.

Conan Cecil faced a piece of loess on the wall, stretched out his hands, a piece of blue light lit up in his palms, then penetrated the blue light into the loess, and uttered a word in his mouth:

"Brickmaking!"

Not long after the blue light entered the loess, the loess immediately underwent a wonderful change. The loose structure was squeezed, and a small amount of hot white smoke came out. After a while, the loose loess turned into a tight and solid stone brick.

Then take out the stone brick weighing more than 60 kilograms from the earth wall and throw it behind you. A transporter will soon transport the stone brick away.

After the production process of one brick was completed, Conan Cecil immediately started on the next one.

Conan Cecil needs to make 10,000 such stone bricks every day.

This kind of mechanical repetitive work.

Boring and boring.

The physical exertion is quite huge.

The pay isn't very high either.

But for three months, Conan Cecil never complained...and neither did his colleagues.

Why?

The majestic high-level warlock and the extremely noble magic network walker have been reduced to a coolie-like "brickmaker". Do Conan Cecil and the others really have no fire in their hearts?

No complaints in private?

There are definitely some complaints, but most of them are small complaints... and more of them are excited expectations after completing the task.

Task?

What task?

Naturally, it is the tasks issued by the system on the personal management template of Magic Network.

For example, the [Empire Central Floating Port] construction project that Conan Cecil is participating in is composed of 100 million stone bricks, 5 million tons of cement, and 500,000 tons of steel. In addition, [steel welding], [Cement pumping], [high-altitude transportation] and other technical work.

For the above work contents, corresponding reward points can be obtained.

For example, making stone bricks is done with the help of the [Level 1 Brick Making Technique] provided by the system. Each time you make a brick, you will be awarded 1 point.

Making cement is completed with the help of the [Level 1 Cement Making Technique] provided by the system. For each copy made, 1 point will be awarded.

Even steel can be directly transformed from iron ore into steel of various customized shapes with the help of the [Level 2 Iron Training Skill] provided by the system. Each time a copy is produced, 2 points will be awarded.

In addition, the system also provides auxiliary skills for high-tech jobs such as [steel welding], [cement pumping], and [high-altitude transportation], which can be used in project construction and get more points as rewards.

What are the benefits of having more points?

exchange.

In the system mall, exchange various "goods".

These "goods" are divided into several major categories, including combat skills, tool assistance and life assistance.

In the combat skills category, there are improved and enhanced versions of spells [Level 1 Blue Impact], [Level 1 Blue Bound], [Level 2 Blue Burst], [Level 2 Blue Shield], etc., which exceed Hundreds of species.

Among the tool-assisted products, in addition to the [Level 1 Brick Making Technique], [Level 1 Cement Making Technique] and other skills that Conan Cecil and others use in their work, there are also [Map Navigation], [Wild Survival Master], [Drug Identification] and other similar APP and knowledge base query functions are used to assist various tasks.

Among the life assistance products, there are [Prospector Master], [Pharmacion Master], [Weapon Making Master], [Culinary Master] and other life assistance learning skills. If you redeem them, you don’t need to spend time learning a certain skill. Professional knowledge in the field, directly instilled with systematic knowledge and skills, you will become a master in a certain field.

See here.

I'm afraid many people have already developed a very familiar feeling.

Including Zhou Ming, the designer of this Magic Network Walker management system, they also felt extremely familiar with it.

What is the difference between this management system and the system in his own mind?

Zhou Ming couldn't help but ask:

"System, in this copy, the management system you developed is almost indistinguishable from you. I can also manage countless users through this system. In the same way, can I think: the system I am using The system, in a higher dimension, also has a behind-the-scenes player managing me?"

"System, are you really just an intelligent system? Or, in other words, are you a 'person' with an independent soul?"

Zhou Ming asked straightforwardly. For him at this moment, digging out the deeper secrets of the system was more than clearing the system copy.

The system was silent for a while.

After a long time, the system said: "Continue to conquer your copy. Maybe one day, I will tell you the whole truth."

The system failed, and Zhou Ming's questions could only be buried deep in his heart for the time being.

…

However, for Conan Cecil and others, his biggest motivation every day is to complete various tasks, accumulate a lot of points, and then go to the system mall to redeem some of the products he is most interested in, such as combat skills and spells. [Level 3 Blue Meteor] has extremely powerful attack power, but requires 1 million points to redeem.

In addition, spell units and the maximum number of uses per day also require points to be redeemed... In short, there are many places to spend.

In order to earn more points, Conan Cecil and his colleagues worked hard every day, and then looked at the points that were increasing every day in the system panel. They were in the days they were looking forward to. , leading a very active life.

And this scene.

A scene of Conan Cecil and his colleagues diligently making bricks every day.

When Xiute and others saw it, their eyes nearly popped out.

Feeling extremely weird and shocked.

The friend who called Xiute and others, a man named Pickle, summed up several strange things:

"Judging from the skills they release, there is no doubt that they must be warlocks, but why do they do this kind of work? No matter what they do, it must be better than making bricks here."

"The spells they released did not have any trace of incantations or concentrated magic power. They were all instantaneous. This is something that only magic net walkers can do."

"In addition, they make bricks all day long, with an average of tens of thousands of bricks per person, almost without a moment's rest... In addition to using the magic power reserves in the magic network, how can they get so much magic power?"

"I have no doubt that they are magic network walkers, but why can't I see the soul strings on them after opening the [Blue Eyes]?"

Shute immediately opened a [Blue Eye], looked at the hundreds of people making bricks, and quickly shook his head: "I can't see it either."

"Me too!" His wife Elias also said.

"There must be a shocking secret hidden among these people! We should report this situation immediately!" said team member Atram.

"Hey! What are you guys doing sneakily?"

Suddenly a voice came from my ears.

But it was a tall warlock who ran to the woods here to help a tall warlock because of internal urgency, and accidentally noticed Xiute and others.

The tall warlock walked towards them.

"It's nothing, just passing by, just passing by." Pickel stood up and waved his hand, looking a little flustered.

The tall warlock glanced at the clothes of the four of them, and when he saw the hand-shaped badges on their chests, he felt something in his heart: the people with blue hands.

"Beep! Alert! Alert! Found four high-risk targets, arrest them! Arrest them immediately! The targets have been marked and the system map has been opened. If you catch one person, you will be rewarded with 1 million points!"

At this time, the system in his mind suddenly alarmed wildly, and four red targets appeared on the system map.

"Get 'em!"

The tall warlock shouted and rushed towards Xiute and the others.

"Dangerous people appear, catch them!"

"Come on!"

As soon as the system alarm sounded in his head, Conan Cecil, who was making bricks, immediately put down his work and rushed towards the four red dots marked by the system.

Other colleagues had similar reactions. They immediately threw away the bricks in their hands and rushed towards the four rewards worth 1 million points.

"run!"

"Let's run!"

Shute was taken aback, immediately grabbed his teammates, turned around and ran away like crazy!
