Gaia, Green Asia, VietNam (small country).
Utopia, New Testament Civilization, Saigon City (medium-sized city, fifth-order classical machine civilization reserve).
..
Maggie Noble University, student square.
Today is the last day of the semester, and tomorrow is the summer vacation.
Some students, on campus, gathered to celebrate.
The speech bazaar, which is held every Monday on campus, is unusually lively.
..
The bald girl, Qiwa, wanders around.
Behind the girl, followed by a youth with long braids, JiXi.
The bald girl has a toned figure, a beautiful appearance, and a noble temperament.
The boy's hair is super long, hanging down to the calves, and he looks the ultimate morbid beauty of an ancient aristocracy.
The boy was holding a snack, in his left hand.
An ultra-thin metal wine bottle, that was standard for drunkards, in his right hand.
A large guitar, on his back.
The boy walked slowly, nibbled on snacks, and occasionally took a sip of wine.
It seems, a little deviant, and a little silly.
..
Behind the boy and girl, there are also two "seventh-order variant robots".
The "companion robot" of Ji Xi's contract, is the mantis queen.
The "companion robot" of the bald girl's contract, is the scorpion princess.
"Companion robots" are equipped in advance, before the Human host is born.
It can store the main memory images, of the Human host's life, from the course of pregnancy, birth to death.
In the machine century, robots and humans, have formed an inseparable contractual symbiotic relationship.
..
In Utopia, the poor cannot afford "companion robots" until they are born.
After the poor grow up and become rich, the robots they buy are called "natal robot".
The "natal robots" can only record the main memory images, of the Human host in the second half of its life.
All people are created equal, but everyone is not created equal.
"The rich rely on technology, the poor rely on mutation." Be the truth for some.
Ji Xi has both wealth and congenital genetic mutations.
To what extent is Ji Xi's gene mutated? No one else knows, not even his father.
..
The bald girl goes east, and the boy with long braids goes east.
Qiwa went west, and JiXi went west.
The bald girl half-jokingly:
"Why don't you have your own opinions?
You just like to follow me. ”
JiXi pouted:
"I didn't like to use my brain, since I was a kid.
Brain power is precious, it must be saved, Life Psionic energy cannot be wasted. ”
..
The booth with the largest number of onlookers, there were dozens of students.
A shout came, attracting the attention of the bald girl and JiXi.
"Bet on it, guess this semester, the ranking of top students, and the ranking of worst students.
Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.
With a five-minute countdown, the rankings of students for this semester, will be announced. ”
The shouting attracted more students to watch.
Many onlookers responded one after another, placing bets with information bracelets.
The bald girl and JiXi also participated in the onlookers.
..
JiXi saw the holographic projection betting plate, suspended in the air, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Score the worst Student Bet:
Truant-King, odds: 1: 5.
Variety-Lord, odds: 5: 1.
...，...。 ”
Some onlookers explained, why Truant-King, the first popular student, is far ahead:
"Truant-King has been the worst student, for two consecutive semesters.
Moreover, the results of Truant-King, are much lower than Variety-Lord.
Truant-King is likely to be the worst student, for three consecutive semesters. ”
..
When the bald girl, saw the holographic projection betting plate, she happily covered her mouth and snickered.
"Score the best Student Bet:
Bald princess, odds: 1:2.
Chen Yu, odds: 1:3.
...，...。 ”
There were also onlookers explained, the competition for the best students was fierce:
Although the bald princess, won the first place , the last semester.
She only narrowly beat Chen Yu, the second place.
The top 10 students, all very small differences, the last semester.
This semester, it is not yet known, who will be the first. ”
..
In order to stimulate students' critical thinking, Maggie Noble university has issued rules:
In the speech bazaar, students can freely speak, debate, open bets, place bets...
However, there is a limit to each bet, and each person can wager up to $100.
In the past, JiXi made a lot of money, in the speech bazaar, watching debates and betting.
Because, Ji Xi was born with a complete awakening of the "Thirteen Talents of Prophets".
"The fourth Talent of Prophet" (perceptive awareness) :
Is the ability to see through the essence, of things at a glance.
In some cases, JiXi can judge at a glance, probably the side will win or lose.
JiXi's perceptual consciousness is quite accurate in some things.
Therefore, the speech bazaar, just like JiXi's ATM wallet, can come and withdraw money at any time.
"Thirteen Talents of Prophets" is similar to JiXi's super plug-in.
Under the cover of pretending to be crazy and stupid, JiXi will use super plug-ins, to make money, whenever he had the opportunity.
..
JiXi took a sip of wine, just about to bet, with the information bracelet, a student stopped him:
"Truant-King, according to the betting rules, you can't bet on yourself."
JiXi frowned impatiently:
"I'm not betting on myself.
I'm betting on the best student, can't I?
I bet on the bald princess, $100. ”
..
After Ji Xi paid $100, with the information bracelet, she asked the bald girl to bet as well:
"You bet too, bet on the worst student, bet on Truant-King."
The bald girl was surprised:
"I don't want to bet on you?
Betting on you, is tantamount to laughing at you? ”
..
JiXi flickered:
"I'm immune to these bad reputations.
You can make $20. ”
The bald girl had no choice, but to use the information bracelet, to bet on Truant-King, $100.
..
Utopia does not have a mobile phone, the projection of the information bracelet, is a substitute for the mobile phone.
The text on the mobile phone, is too small.
Humans use mobile phones, for a long time, which can lead to deformation of the eyeball, and sclerosis of the neck.
In the 21st century, historical psychologists, in the pre-social, period named mobile phones: visual drugs.
According to the "Third Law of Machines" (Law of Injury) [The Law of Intelligent Systems]:
Machines that do not meet safety specifications, are prohibited from being implanted in artificial intelligence systems.
Because the phone does not meet the safety norms, the mobile phone is prohibited from being implanted with artificial intelligence.
So, mobile phones were outlawed by Utopia.
