Fatty and Thin Man are two orphans who grew up together. Although the welfare in Future World is better than in the Twenty-First Century, there are no benefits like housing and basic assistance provided by the government. When they turned sixteen, they left the orphanage to work while continuing their studies. Fatty is otherwise average, but he is smart and quick to absorb knowledge. Once he graduates, he hopes to find a good job and live a stable life. Thin Man excels in Martial Arts and has good mental strength; he learned to operate Mecha at Star Network. Just as he was filled with hope of entering the military as an officer thanks to his exceptional Mecha skills, Fatty got into trouble by inadvertently offending the son of a powerful family on the planet. To save Fatty, Thin Man was severely injured. At that time, they had no money for proper treatment for Thin Man, which left him with hidden injuries and caused his mental strength to collapse, preventing him from ever operating Mecha again. Additionally, they were expelled from their prestigious school and faced numerous obstacles in finding jobs, ultimately becoming delinquents who occasionally robbed those who appeared weaker.
"If I take you in, that person you offended will come looking for trouble with me," Bai Tang said, although she felt that after so many years, that powerful young man must have forgotten about them.
"This..." Fatty and Thin Man exchanged glances. Would this person really be troubled because of their feud with that spoiled young man? The answer was certainly no; even a strong individual would not easily offend someone powerful on a planet. Their shoulders slumped as despair enveloped them. They believed they would never have a chance to rise again in this life.
Bai Tang's tone shifted: "However, I will be leaving Gait Star soon. That family's influence doesn't reach Capital Star, right?"
Of course, that family was merely a Tuzhu on Gait Star; once they reached Capital Star, they would be nothing! Fatty and Thin Man shook their heads repeatedly, hope rising within them—what does it mean to have a master?
"I will leave Gait Star in three days; come find me at Star Harbor!" Bai Tang said casually before leaving behind two stunned fools.
"Brother, what did she mean by that?" Fatty asked blankly.
Thin Man blinked and spoke with an unusual warmth: "We are leaving Gait Star!"
"Leaving Gait Star?" Fatty repeated in confusion as his mind began to work, then his smile grew wider. "Thin Man, Big Sister has taken us in! We won't have to live such a miserable life anymore!"
Thin Man rarely smiled so brightly: "Fatty, thank you!"
...
Bai Tang found a hotel near Star Harbor. Upon entering her room, she felt like Liu Laolao again. First impression: big! The room was at least two hundred square meters. Second impression: comfortable and luxurious; even a presidential suite from the first century couldn't compare to this ordinary guest room. Third impression: novel and unique. There was a remote control on the bedside table; pressing a button transformed the room into a pitch-black universe, the ceiling became a starry sky, and the soft bed beneath her turned into a cold hard meteorite. Bai Tang couldn't help but marvel at how advanced the virtual technology was in Future World—not only visual but even tactile sensations could be deceived by virtual technology.
Pressing another button changed the scene to a forest filled with greenery, although many plants were unfamiliar to Bai Tang. She heard birds chirping and smelled flowers' fragrance; the bed beneath her transformed into a thick grass mat with the scent of fresh grass—she couldn't believe the scenery before her was virtual.
Changing again, the scene morphed into an underwater world where various beautiful fish swam around her; a lovely mermaid flirted with her... The blue sky turned into soft white clouds beneath her... In a volcano, Bai Tang felt she was just one step away from lava...
After playing enough, Bai Tang settled on the forest scenery and lay down on the soft grass mat. She was tired today and needed some rest.
The next morning, Bai Tang ordered the best package from the hotel—costing one hundred thousand Federation Credits—but what about the taste? After one bite, she couldn't eat anymore and took out a roasted potato dipped in ketchup for breakfast instead. No wonder Kate always complained that what he used to eat was pig food after tasting her cooking; Bai Tang thought he was exaggerating until she tried local food herself. This stuff was almost as bad as pig food yet still considered expensive delicacies—she couldn't imagine how terrible regular people's food must be! No wonder when she left Park, those old folks were reluctant to see her go.
After eating and washing her hands clean, Bai Tang took out two testing devices she bought yesterday. The instruments were small—about the size of a twelve-inch laptop. The black one was a Physical Fitness Tester while the silver one was a Mental Strength Tester. She first opened the Physical Fitness Tester; a beam of light enveloped Bai Tang as she watched the values on the screen continuously rise—past level ten to eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen... until it stopped at level twenty. If it rose any higher, the device would explode.
"The strength of the late Nascent Soul is equivalent to level 20, and level 15 should be equivalent to the Golden Core stage. According to Kate, the most powerful master of physical skills in the future world has reached level 18, and has the strength of the early Nascent Soul. It is amazing. !" Bai Tang thought about it and turned on the mental power tester again. Halfway through, Bai Tang looked at the screen that had not changed at all, and his face turned into ┗|｀′|┛. Damn, her mental power is zero? impossible! Could it be that the instrument is broken? It's impossible, this instrument is new. And with future technology, there will be no such thing as fake or shoddy goods. So what's going on? Bai Tang Rubbed her chin and stared at the mental strength tester, thinking and thinking. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and a bright light bulb materialized above her head. "I'm stupid! Cultivator's consciousness should be spiritual power. I haven't released my consciousness yet, so how can the instrument detect it?" Bai Tang patted his forehead and released his consciousness. There was only a "bang" sound, and the mental power tester exploded! "Fortunately, the protective facilities in the hotel room are good, otherwise I don't know how much money I would have to pay!" BaiTang patted his chest happily. The blowing up of the mental power tester can only prove that the intensity of his consciousness is higher than the maximum test value of the instrument, and it is much higher. The most powerful spiritual powerhouse here is level 16, which is much worse than myself. Hoho, now I feel more confident. Bai TangLaugh and laugh, with her mental strength and physical skills, what kind of mecha can't be used? BaiTang can’t wait to enter StarNet. The star network in the future world has realized holography, which is equivalent to the second world. Work, shopping, eating, drinking and playing can all be carried out in the star network. Of course, eating can only satisfy the appetite, not fill the stomach. After registering the online name "Candy Store", Bai Tang appeared in a room. The furnishings in the room are very simple, with only a three-seater sofa and a coffee table, and nothing else. BaiTang knows that this is the "home" assigned to her by Xingwang, and in the future, all trips to and from Xingwang must be done at home. If you want to decorate your "home" in a unique way, you must spend your own money to buy furniture and decorations. BaiTang I didn’t want to waste my money, so I just opened the door and left the house. The lively atmosphere rushed to his face. Bai Tang turned his head and looked at the door sign with "Candy Store", smiled, and entered the crowd. This area is the landing area, and there are many people coming and going. Fortunately, the roads are wide and extend in all directions, so there will be no traffic congestion. Bai Tang As people walked out of the residential area, the sight she saw made her think that she had returned to the 1st century or even the 19th and 20th centuries earlier. There are no tall buildings here, and the highest floor is only three stories high; instead of floating cars running on the road, there are carriages pulled by two horses. "Is this retro?" BaiTang murmured. Because she did not lower her voice deliberately, a passerby heard her words and interjected: "Yeah! Isn't retro popular now? The environment of many areas on the Star Network has been adjusted. The layout of our area is based on Five The style of Thousand Years Ancient Earth. How about it? Not bad, right?" Bai Tang nodded, whether it is the 21st century, the 20th century, or the 19th century, although the scene in front of him looks like Somewhat eccentric. "You're so old before you go to StarNet for the first time?" a passerby shouted in surprise, with an expression of "I'm not a fool, don't lie to me" on the baby's face. "I come from a remote planet and I didn't have the conditions before!" BaiTang casually made up a lie. Babyface still didn't believe it: "Remote planets also have star networks, just like border planets like Gate Star, the star network covers them all!"
"Uh..." Bai Tang was at a loss for words, only blaming her lack of common sense for the easily exposed lie. "Actually, it's because of my family situation. I live alone now, so I can go online..."
Doll Face imagined a melodramatic scene of "Power Struggle, where the neglected and pitiful woman becomes a pawn cast out of her home." This person came from High Society and understood the cruelty of Power Struggle, but since her family had no such troubles and protected her well, she was quite innocent. She blushed and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to touch on your sad story."
"It's okay!" Bai Tang smiled, thinking that this person was really naive.
Seeing that Bai Tang easily forgave her, Doll Face felt that Bai Tang was truly a good person and wanted to be friends with her.
"My name is Maple Leaf Knows Autumn. What's your name?"
"I'm Candy Store," Bai Tang replied with her online name, wanting to get to know this innocent boy.
"Candy Store? Do you really like candy?" Maple Leaf Knows Autumn asked curiously.
"And you? Maple Leaf Knows Autumn, were you born in autumn?" Bai Tang countered.
"Yeah, I was born in autumn," Maple Leaf Knows Autumn said cheerfully. "My great-grandfather had a plant called maple tree on Ancient Earth. In autumn, its leaves turn red and look very beautiful, so they used 'maple' when naming me."
