Not a god

Chapter 173 Dream Monitoring Tower Starts (18.5.16)
All the money that Jiang Wanwan had was always managed by Chen Xi.

The amount of intimate payment that she could freely use every month was only 2,000 yuan. Usually, as soon as the 2,000 yuan was refreshed at the beginning of the month, she would use it all to charge games... and then beg Chen Xi for more pocket money every day.

However, after she graduates from college, she will be an adult. As an adult, she must have more disposable money, so they agreed that after she graduates from college, the intimate payment will be increased to 3k a month.

Three thousand a month, such a good life is simply unimaginable.

Poor Lord of Fengdu, he possesses astronomical wealth, but it is all taken away by his hateful brother.

After taking graduation photos and receiving her diploma, Jiang Wanwan has been living a very carefree life these days, like a tiger descending from the mountains or an eagle soaring in the sky.

She used to be restricted from recharging her game account, but now she can do it whenever she wants. She used to be restricted from drinking milk tea, but now she drinks two cups a day. She used to be restricted from buying McDonald's...

"I want a chicken burger, a medium potato, and a Coke..."

"My dear guest, all of these are included in the set meal. You can just order set meal one."

"No...that's all."

The waiter looked at the girl in front of him wearing sunglasses and a mask, and felt her determination, and couldn't help but respect her.

I have confirmed through eye contact that he is the one who has achieved McDonald's freedom.

Today is May 5th. Avengers 14 was released in mainland China a few days ago, and she dragged Chen Xi to watch Avengers.

He was so generous that he paid for the meal out of his own pocket and asked her to treat him.

She has been living a carefree life recently. Even when Chen Xi urged her to go to bed at night, she said, "I have graduated from college. I am not a child anymore. I can go to bed whenever I want..."

Some children are like this. If they are controlled too strictly from childhood to adulthood, they will look forward to being rebellious in the future.

Unless you can take care of her for her whole life, and Chen Xi can do that.

Children have their own way of persuading others to sleep, and adults have their own way of persuading others to sleep.

If you don’t sleep, you will be beaten.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Boss Jiang took the initiative to invite everyone to watch a movie and eat McDonald's. Chen Xi sat aside eating junk food and asked:

"Did you buy your ticket?"

"I saw it this morning, there are still a lot!"

“Because it’s not a holiday.”

“I’ll buy it now!”

Jiang Wanwan opened her phone and saw that a movie ticket cost more than 60 yuan, which was a small matter. However, when she was checking out, a message suddenly popped up reminding her that her balance was insufficient.

She began to count the number of people again, and her heart sank slightly.

"Yiyi is so young and can't understand, why take her there?"

"Ho?"

"Jiang Yan, you don't need to watch it. You haven't seen the first two movies, and you don't understand Marvel..."

"I want to see!"

Yan Di had just learned in the store that a movie is just a huge TV, and many people watch it together.

If the TV is this good, then how good must the super big TV be? She has come here, so how could she not watch it?

Jiang Wanwan felt increasingly heavy in the heart.

"Brother, did you forget to adjust my balance? It's so strange, the money seems to have suddenly become so little..."

"There's no point in imitating Yukihime's speech."

"You just didn't add to my balance, you just didn't..."

Very good, the familiar begging, Chen Xi drank the Coke silently, half of it was snatched away, and said: "Hate it! I'm not treating you, you are not allowed to drink!"

"Brother, do you want to drink mine?"

"Xiao Wan you!"

One's own poverty is sad, but being betrayed by one's younger sister is even more heartbreaking!

After a few people went in and sat in a row, they watched a foreign blockbuster. Without mentioning the plot, the special effects were indeed powerful.

Little Yiyi was fine. Although she couldn't read, she was very excited by the atmosphere and the scenes on the screen. Chen Xi held her and told her that she couldn't speak now, so she just stayed in her father's arms and watched with her eyes wide open.

There was a big Yi Yi next to her, also with her eyes open.

“What are these people talking about?”

"English."

"You're talking so much, can't you just speak human language?"

"A foreign language."

"Do you understand?"

“With subtitles.”

"Oh, yes, there are subtitles..."

She also opened her eyes wide, turned her head to look at others, finally looked down at the popcorn, then silently grabbed the popcorn and started eating.

Although the current topic has always been hotly debated about destiny, we still have to live our lives, and not everyone on the Internet is talking about destiny.

As long as society is stable and everyone works and eats as usual, the emergence of supernatural powers and extraordinary creatures will definitely have an impact on society, but it will not attract everyone's attention at once.

Work, school, games, movies, entertainment, now that Tianmingren has entered the public eye, he has become just a part of society, not the center of everyone.

The release of Avengers 3 immediately sparked widespread discussion and quickly became a hot topic.

Jiang Wanwan also joined in the fun and posted a status on her Bilibili account. She is now a real international superstar. Even if she just posted a comma, there were immediately over a hundred comments below.

"Hokage-sama also went to watch Avengers 3?"

"It's been out for a few days, and I hadn't planned to watch it, but now I have to."

"The special effects are so cool. It's better to watch foreign blockbusters."

"This brings us to the story of a fighting spirit turning into a horse..."

"How far ahead is this special effects technology in China?"

"Don't even think about filming in China. Those who understand will understand..."

Some netizens are really in a state of struggle all the time, comparing everything, and they lose again when it comes to watching a movie.

But what's interesting is that there really are superheroes abroad, and that's the federal policeman in America, Da Luotian. This federal policeman has indeed been doing a lot for their security. His whereabouts can even be found online. He either goes to this state to eliminate terrorist evil corpses, or goes to another state to deal with resurrected corpses. He is a model worker.

At the same time, this Daluotian also created a Heroes Association, hoping that more powerful people would join the Heroes Association. He also brought in two other Daluotian from America, as well as a group of talented people with outstanding talents. He would personally train these new forces.

With the release of Avengers 3, people's calls for him have risen again, and people probably really regard him as the real-life version of Captain America.

On the other hand, in our country, there has never been a god who stood up, raised his arms and shouted for people to follow, nor has there ever been a god who stood at the forefront and threatened to save the world.

The two superpowers on this planet have each chosen a different path. Who is right? There is probably no right or wrong. It all depends on the perspective.

Coincidentally, the Dream Monitoring Tower transmitter that Jiangda Alliance is responsible for today will be officially put into use tomorrow.

The Dream Monitoring Tower can be said to be a real national treasure. Even if dreams are completely integrated with reality in the future, the Dream Monitoring Tower will still be an important guarantee for people's livelihood security.

In fact, the Dream Monitoring Tower transmitter was completed as early as last week, but people still needed to be trained in its use and tested. Now it has been officially put into use. Soon senior leaders will come to observe it, and even official media will broadcast it live.

When Chen Xi arrived at the scene, it wasn't very lively, but everyone who should have come was there. In addition to their guild, there were also people from the Shepherd's Office, and people from other guilds who came to study.

Situ greeted him: "Brother Chen is here."

"How about it?"

Situ was holding a stack of blueprints in his hand. It was mid-May, the sun was shining brightly at noon, and he was sweating profusely.

"The test results show that there is no problem, and the current coverage is in line with expectations."

“Did the government agencies send anyone for training?”

"Yes, but... I feel that if I am on duty at that time, it will still take a lot of effort to maintain and repair the machine."

"Let's talk about it later and see how the leaders arrange it."

It was not until two o'clock in the afternoon that the leader's car finally arrived.

A man with silver hair and deep eyes got off the car. His surname was He and everyone called him Chief He. His status was higher than those last time.

The kind you see on TV from time to time.

There was a big leader, and then a few small leaders followed him, and then a group of people followed behind them. Chen Xi didn't know who they were, but by hearing how they addressed each other, he could roughly guess who they were. Some were from the military region, some from the municipal government, and some from the police department.

Among this group of people, even the one walking at the back is the one at the pinnacle of power in Shuchuan.

There are people holding cameras behind, they are all official media. It’s being broadcast live now. Maybe you can see me when you go back and watch the news broadcast tonight.

The big boss rarely spoke. After entering the station, he led us around a few times, looked at the signal tower, looked at the site, and finally came to the machine room.

After arriving at the computer room, looking at the transmitters, screens and monitors in this room, Chen Xi couldn't understand them, let alone the leaders.

The big boss smiled and said, "Haha, our team is really getting younger and younger."

There was a burst of cheerful laughter and various flashes of light at the scene. Chen Xi also echoed a few nonsense words, then patted Situ on the shoulder:

"Engineer Si is 21 years old this year and is the general manager of our project. Can you please tell us how the transmitter of this dream monitoring tower works..."

"Ahem, oh oh!"

These were all big leaders, and Situ was just a junior college student. He had never seen such a big scene.

And he didn't know what was going on with these people. They would suddenly start laughing while talking, and then laugh after saying every two sentences. He was confused the whole time.

Glancing at Chen Xi, Brother Chen also looked nonchalant in front of such a group of big shots. No wonder he could be the director... But I have to say, with Chen Xi standing next to him, he did feel a little more confident.

"We, our Dream Monitoring Tower mainly relies on detecting psychic fluctuations within the coverage area. The psychic signal emitted by the transmitter through the antenna is positioned with the help of the existing 5G base station, and finally guided back to the detection equipment of the station to predict the cracks in the dreamland. Generally, it can be predicted 20 minutes in advance, and the range can be locked within meters..."

"In addition to predicting cracks, the most important thing is to detect evil corpses. From the trial operation of No. 9 to now, we have used the instrument to search for 6 evil corpses hidden in the coverage area. These evil corpses are all very intelligent and know how to hide. Some hide in the sewers, and some hide in unfinished buildings. Notify the specialists of the Shepherd's Office to go and deal with them..."

"In addition to the evil corpses, we can also detect some strange psychic fluctuations. These psychic fluctuations are not very common."

Situ didn't know what to say, so he made a guess: "We now preliminarily believe that it should be a wronged soul..."

"Hey, little comrade, feudal superstition is not good."

"Oh, that might be, um, it is..." The science and engineering guy's computer suddenly went offline.

Then he guessed it was a ghost. If you didn't tell him, he would stumble over what to say. He secretly glanced at Chen Xi next to him and thought to himself, "Maybe there's a small malfunction in the machine, haha..."

As he said this he smiled to himself, but no one else laughed. Situ immediately put away his smile and went to that station obediently.

In fact, this transmitter is very similar to some microwave and medium wave broadcasts. I don’t know whether the leaders understood it after listening to it, but they acted as if they understood it.

Still asking questions there, not only asking questions, but also giving some suggestions.

"If this coverage could be further..."

"How big is the area of our machine?"

"Oh, it would be great if you could just block out that dreamland."

The CCTV reporter took pictures and Chen Xi was forced to appear on camera. Then Chief He spoke again:

"This operating table looks very high-tech."

After Chief He finished speaking, there was another round of laughter. The flashlights flashed. Situ was confused. Chen Xi also laughed twice, then looked at Situ and said:

"Engineer, can you show us how to operate these devices and what they look like in operation?"

"Yes, yes, show me, show me."

“See how it actually works.”

Situ came over to the workbench and explained: "Oh, that's right. The transmitter is running now. This is the alarm, and this is the detection signal. Each signal tower outside will have a spiritual power detection device. When an abnormality is detected, it will alarm and transmit it back to several signal towers..."

However, just as Situ was explaining, by coincidence, the equipment alarm went off.

Situ suddenly became spirited:
"This is the detection of a crack in a certain place. Here are the values sent back by 10 signal towers. The strength of number 063 is 7, the strength of 065 is 2, and the strength of 061 is 6... Through the strength of these numbered base stations, we can determine the approximate range within meters..."

"Then where is the alarm? We need to notify everyone to evacuate immediately."

"Yes, yes, Pastoral Affairs Bureau, quickly notify the Pastoral Affairs Bureau to send a specialist."

The leaders are all very concerned about this matter.

Situ operated the buttons on the workbench. This workbench also had the function of calculating the range based on the return signal. He took a look:
"Oh, no need. It seems to be near here."

As soon as these words came out, the leaders' faces froze. This, is it right here?
"So, what should we do now?"

"Don't worry, as long as you avoid the central area, you won't be sucked into the dreamland by the cracks. At most two or three evil corpses will emerge... Shit!"

These leaders looked at the handsome young man who was explaining to them. As he spoke, he took out a bow and rushed out with a nervous expression.
