2.1 - Soft science fiction romance novel
Miao Zhen opened his eyes and looked around. Seeing the unfamiliar environment, he knew that he had arrived in a new world.
The system beep was introducing him to the world in his mind.
[The novel world you are in now is a soft science fiction romance novel. Soft science fiction is the opposite of hard science fiction. The author boldly imagines and no longer describes science and engineering in detail, but focuses on the psychological and humanistic social aspects, focusing on discussing philosophy and social phenomena. It is one of the branches of science fiction. 】
[The name of the novel you traveled through this time is, "The Human Box"]
[The content of the novel is summarized as follows: There are one hundred humans living in a box. Fifty males, fifty females. They gradually formed tribal groups, thrived in their respective territories, and developed religious beliefs. 】
[Every year, the gods living in the sky give them fresh food and water. But every ten years, the gods will be angry, and humans without fresh food can only starve. In order to survive, humans would select a sacrifice and tie it to a sacred pillar and burn it to the gods. After making the offerings, within a year, the gods would favor them again. 】
[This tradition lasted for a long time, and one year they chose the heroine Jiang Mingshu as a sacrifice. The male protagonist Qu Chenglin turned against the world in order to save her. Their spirit of constant struggle against fate moved the gods, and they favored mankind again without any sacrifices. After the crisis was resolved, they lived happily together. 】
[But something went wrong while the world was running, and the male protagonist turned dark for unknown reasons. Not only does he have no intention of saving the heroine, but he wants to kill everyone and destroy the entire world. 】
[The mission is released below, main mission one: let the male protagonist feel the truth, goodness and beauty, and prevent the male protagonist from destroying the world. Main mission two: Save the heroine and prevent her from being sacrificed to the gods. There is still one day left before the plot point begins, so the host please be prepared. 】
No matter how Miao Zhen looked at it, he felt that this world was not comparable to science fiction.
He knocked on System 5210, 'Is this science fiction? '
【There is no mistake in classification. 】The system successfully deceived the main system, gained a lot of points, and was choosing love gifts for the target in the mall.
'What is Xiao Monk's current identity? '
As soon as this was mentioned, the system became energetic.
[I see that you had a bad life in the last world. In this world, I blocked the main system and chose a good body for you. You are now the son of a small tribal leader, with no worries about food and clothing. Moreover, both the male and female protagonists are from this tribe, so you don't have to go far. How about it, am I great! 】
Miao Zhen applauded it.
The system holds the gift and happily goes to find the little one.
Miao Zhen opened the map and took a look. The male protagonist was eating in his own small house, while the female protagonist was standing in another small house, talking to the people at the shrine.
The villain in the article is Geng Yunian, the priest of the shrine. He sent people to arrest the heroine and forced her to sacrifice.
The little man Geng Yunnian was walking on the street with his walking stick.
Seeing that everyone was staying calm, Miao Zhen was not in a hurry to go out.
Due to various reasons in the previous world, Miao Zhen did not unlock all the hidden characters.
The remaining hidden character cards in the system are placed in the mall for Miao Zhen to choose from.
Miao Zhen also played the Holy Mother Bitch Quotes a few times in the later period, and now has 70 Holy Mother Bitch points.
The original price of the card is 40 Holy Mother Bitch, but the new world has a limited time special price of 30 each.
Miao Zhen plans to redeem it before the special offer ends.
He has unlocked Chu Jiajia, Liu Meifeng and Li Renqi, and there are still four hidden characters that have not been unlocked.
The product details include a guide to unlocking the hidden characters in the previous world.
If you join the good study group, you will be invited by Dong Aitong to study together at home, and you will have a chance to come into contact with her father.
Working part-time in a bar, you will meet cousin Qiao Wan. Becoming friends with Chu Siyao will lead to contact with her father.
Another hidden figure is the history teacher of Nanhai High School. You need to be the child of a police officer or reporter to have the opportunity to get along with her in private.
Miao Zhen had already made some guesses about the first three characters.
But he didn't expect that the history teacher who looked like a background was actually a hidden figure.
Miao Zhen finally chose the [Summoning Card] generated by Dong Aitong's father and the [Spell Card] generated by the history teacher.
He only had enough Holy Mother Bitch to buy two, and it seemed that he still didn't have enough Holy Mother Bitch.
In this world, we need to work harder to be a qualified Holy Mother Bitch.
He currently has six cards in his card pack. [Huang Liang Yimeng], [Full of Grievances], [Brother Li's Monster Card], [Small Hammer Given by the System] and the new cards purchased.
[Summoning Card·Law Guardian: A card from Dong Aitong's father, Dong Jianguo, and inspired by the spirit of the police. After using the card, nearby police officers will rush to the user's vicinity as quickly as possible and arrest or kill the surrounding illegal persons. Only one police officer can be summoned at a time, but officers can request assistance independently. 】
[When the summoned object dies, it can be resurrected using cards. After resurrection, the cards disappear and never appear. The police officer will leave automatically after completing the arrest operation and surviving. Cool down for one day and refresh again]
[Note: The summoned police officers will not obey the user's orders. They will act according to the law and their own judgment. The laws of each world are different, and summons only abide by local laws and regulations. 】
Miao Zhen likes this card very much, not only because the card is very practical, but also because of the meaning behind it.
In the previous world, many police officers had helped him. Miao Zhen prayed for them privately, hoping that they would come back safely from their mission.
Miao Zhen clicked on the last card.
[Spell Card·Uneasy Conscience: From Qihai High School history teacher Li Yundi. 】
[Card generation background: She saw through the truth of the matter and knew what happened to Chu Siyao. But she was alone and did not dare call the police for fear of retaliation. Because of my uneasy conscience, I spent my days in panic and had no intention of teaching. After Chu Siyao's family was arrested, she contacted the police anonymously and provided some key evidence. 】
[Card effect: After use, the target will feel a strong sense of guilt and tell the user secrets that disturb their conscience. Lasts 3-5 minutes, affected by the target's mental state. 】
[Note: This card only works on conscientious targets. 】
In the previous world, Miao Zhen often skipped history class because the history teacher was indifferent.
At that time, he felt that the history teacher was not very responsible, but he never thought about the reason. After all, there were not many normal people in Nanami High School.
After sorting out the cards, Miao Zhen went to check the system, but it hadn't come back yet.
Miao Zhen simply went out for a walk.
The system prompts that this is a soft science fiction world. Miao Zhen didn't understand it at first. After walking around the tribe station, Miao Zhen understood it.
The sun in the sky does not rise in the east or set in the west. It always hangs in the center of the world.
It will slowly darken, and eventually the world will become dark, and this will be considered a dark day.
In the second half of the night, it will gradually light up again, and when it is fully lit, it will be daytime.
There are no clouds in the sky, no rainfall, no four seasons, and the temperature is always suitable for human survival.
There is no water underground, and all human living water depends on the transparent pillar in the center of the tribe.
There is a water diversion head under the water column, and the water will flow out when opened.
The water column is protected by the spring guard. There are four water columns in the world, and each tribe is built around the water column.
The land here looks fertile, but there is no way to sow food. There are no animals or plants either.
There will be a heavenly platform near the water column, which looks like a huge plate.
The gods would place food inside, and each tribe would take the food away and store it in the granary, protected by a food guard.
There is no need for things given by the gods here. They are the ores in the caves, huge lumps of materials, mountains of wood, etc. scattered around the world.
Humans living here rely on mining, weaving yarn, collecting scattered items, and making daily necessities.
In addition to the basic water column and Tianci Terrace, Miao Zhen's tribe also occupies two iron ore mines, three material balls, and a wood mountain. The entire tribe relies on these things to survive.
Civilization has just begun, but people have unified their language and have a common writing system.
There is no currency, and each tribe has its own crystal stone.
It was a divine item and could not be counterfeited. People can use crystal stones to receive necessities within specified limits. Work hard and you can get crystal stones.
Miao Zhen had a small cloth bag full of crystal stones.
It seems that the system prompt is right, this is indeed the world of soft science fiction.
Miao Zhen was a little curious about what those material balls were. He looked at the map and found the processing workshop for the material balls.
When Miao Zhen passed by, the female workers were working. One of the women was weaving a wool bag and wiping her tears.
Seeing the patriarch's precious son arriving, the foreman quickly greeted him.
Miao Zhen smiled gently at her, pointed at the crying woman, and asked the foreman in a low voice.
"She is Jiang Mingshu's mother. The day of sacrifice is coming soon. The priest chose her daughter to sacrifice." The foreman sighed, "It's not easy for her. The man died and she and her daughter depended on each other. Now the daughter will die too, and her daughter will die in the future. What to do with the day?"
"How did her husband die?"
"While digging for iron ore, I was killed by falling iron ore."
Miao Zhen has seen a lot of suffering in the world. He's mostly powerless, but he does what he can to help these people.
It is impossible for a real god to sacrifice the flesh and blood of a living person. Since the god of this world is willing to give humans food and water for a long time and has never asked for anything in return, it does not seem like an evil god at the moment.
The use of human sacrifices was also a method these people came up with on their own.
The gods don't necessarily want this.
Miao Zhen looked up at the sky, wondering if the gods could hear his voice.
He wanted to ask the gods if it was really his wish to sacrifice human beings?
Being the patriarch's son has many advantages. Miao Zhen just explained his purpose to the foreman and successfully visited one of the material balls.
It was a huge ball of yarn, much larger than a normal house. The two sides were fixed with something, and a piece of wool hung down from the bottom.
Female workers pulled wool and knitted small bags.
The foreman sighed at the side: "It's too hot to make clothes made of wool. They can only be made into bags, and they leak easily. It's better to use cloth balls. They have big cloth balls, which are perfect for making clothes."
She paused and looked at the cloth bag on Miao Zhen's waist with some envy, "That's great. When will our Mao Tuan tribe also have our own cloth ball?"
When I came back from a date with the system in the evening, I saw Miao Zhen sitting on the bed in a daze, seemingly autistic.
【What's wrong with you? 】
'The young monk's cognition was impacted and he was digesting the information he learned today. '
【Is it difficult to understand? 】The system asked.
Miao Zhen nodded, "Well, this world is not scientific at all." '
The system is confused, [Aren't you a monk? 】
'The young monk has studied physics, received systematic education, and is a scientific monk. '
[It's really you who said this:)]
