Chapter 232: Prison (I)

This is a starport city, and the residents of the city have lived in this city all their lives since birth, as if they can reach out to the starry sky. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

With a sufficient share of nutrient solution rations every day, every resident with legal status can enjoy free medical insurance for life, and every adult resident can receive a monthly allowance sufficient for a family of three to live a prosperous life.

It can be said that in addition to being limited in the scope of activities and not being able to leave the city, life here has been a beautiful life that working people in many dimensions dare not imagine in their lifetime.

As long as you have a legal status in the city, you can live a very good life even if you don't do anything all day.

Of course, people's desires are endless, so even in such a city, there are still classes, with three religions and nine streams.

If you just eat and wait for death, it naturally doesn't matter, just be a ninth-rate rotten person, and you can live the life of a rich person in the world.

If you want to make a difference, if you want to live better, if you want to be respected by more people, or even if you want to be free, then go for it!

The city still needs someone to maintain its order and operation, many positions are vacant, if no one is on duty, then there are electronic robots on duty, if someone is willing to serve, then as long as they complete their work on time, they can easily get more wealth and contributions!

Even, a long time ago, it was said that if you can become a mayor, or even a municipal standing councilor, you will be eligible to leave the city by spaceship!

Ten years, one hundred years, one thousand years!

Looking up, the stars in the sky that are still huge, the moon that occupies half of the sky on the day of the lonely moon every year, the spaceships marked with the mark of the Interstellar Federation that arrive every ten years, the images that repeat day after day, year after year, all tell the inhabitants of the city a cruel reality.

They are a group of happy prisoners, who have been kept in captivity in this lonely city since they were born, living a happy life in this beautiful and dreamlike cage that will never be free!

Since the beginning of records, the city has changed more than 100 mayors, and the tombstones of these mayors are erected one by one in the hall of eternal sleep!

Only a small number of people are still insisting that the municipal dignitaries have left, and that only a few Krons are buried in the graves!

Most of the residents have already resigned themselves to their fate.

For nine out of nine people, the starry sky within reach is incomparably far away from reality after all!

Perhaps the inhabitants of this city will only get the rights of those who will never be seen, no matter how hard they try.

Feng Hao has been living in this city for three months, and because of his replacement status, he is a member of the upper city, so his current small life is not sad.

In this city, the basic rights of every resident are the same, just like a prisoner in a labor camp, and the treatment is basically the same.

But even in prison, there is a prison bully. In this city, since you can exchange more with your hands, classes will naturally arise over time. The so-called superior people appeared one after another.

Feng Hao's role at this time is such an upper-class person.

While his basic benefits are comparable to those of others, he can live in a better house, have more power, rely on more contributions and wealth, do more things within the city, and be closer to the giant of the Interstellar Federation, and closer than ordinary residents.

And these do not need to be created with his industrious hands.

With the establishment of an inherent order, some people can enjoy more even if they do nothing, by virtue of their eminent status.

It will not be a rare special phenomenon to enjoy the upper-class material life with an obscene attitude towards life.

Therefore, everyone wants to climb up and use more efforts in exchange for the happiness of the second half of their lives and even their children and grandchildren!

It's ridiculous to say that the reason why Feng Hao's replacement can become a superior person is not because of his father or how hard he works, but because ten years ago, when the spaceship sent by the Interstellar Federation docked in Starport, he entered it by chance and worked as a helper for a while!

Because of this "qualification", he was valued by the mayor at that time and became one of the "municipal councilors", qualified to live in the upper city.

Feng Hao came this time to be assigned by the God of Steel to investigate this strange fantasy domain and the interstellar federation behind it!

Therefore, it may not be all a coincidence to be able to obtain this identity, and it may be that the god of iron is secretly working hard!

When he first came here, Feng Hao had the illusion that this place was a copy of the Steel City.

Because many of the rules here are similar to those of the Iron City. It's just that the basic benefits of the Steel City are better, the work tasks are more demanding, and the rewards are higher.

In addition, the inhabitants of the Iron City have a freedom that the inhabitants of this city will never be able to obtain!

Although the freedom that the City of Steel can give is relative, it is still more precious than true confinement.

Some people don't see what they have, so they spend their days thinking about breaking something. Some people see what they have, so they are happy to live in their own way. There is no difference between superior and inferior, it is nothing more than a difference in attitude towards life.

For example, Feng Hao and Wang Xiaoshun, there is no one who is better than the other. The two have a similar status quo, but what Feng Hao and Wang Xiaoshun think and want in their hearts is completely different!

Even if he couldn't get out of it, Feng Hao never rejected life in the Steel City. On the contrary, because he still held some unrealistic delusions, Feng Hao enjoyed it and became a staunch fan of the Iron God! Even if he was driven away, he probably wouldn't leave!

Only by getting closer to God can we understand God better and transcend God.

It's delusional, but it's a motivator. What Wang Xiaoshun wants and wants to do, is it not delusional and not motivation?

The doorbell disturbed Feng Hao, who was reading a book on the city's historical background.

He was slightly unhappy, and as soon as his thoughts moved, a slender maid went to open the door.

The maid is not a "natural person", but a nano-biomechanical puppet.

In addition to having no soul, it is no different from a normal woman, and can even match the owner's chromosomes for conception and childbirth!

Such a maid is probably the dream of many otaku living in the two-dimensional world!

Otaku are not endemic creatures on a certain planet, they can be found anywhere, and the more developed the world is the more material civilization, the more otaku there are!

For example, in this city, there are a lot of dead houses!

And when all the inhabitants have considerable basic rights, and there is no oppression and slavery in the absolute sense, there will always be some people's desires that cannot be satisfied from other residents!

At this time, the role of the nanomechanical puppet can be reflected!

It can do most of the work well, including filling the void in some people's hearts and doing some shameful things!

Due to the high cost of construction, each resident has only one free place for the production of mechanical puppets in their lifetime. If you want a second or a third, with that allowance, it will not be enough to accumulate for a hundred years.

However, even if there is a way to get a group of mechanical golems, it will be difficult to realize the plan to plant a homeland, at most there is only cultivation and no harvest.

In this city, the population is tightly controlled!

Cities do not restrict residents from combining with other residents, it does not matter if they have three wives and four concubines, or if they are polyandry, and they do not restrict the reproductive function of mechanical puppets.

However, each natural person can only have one natural person's custody quota, which can be waived, but cannot be transferred.

This can be increased by contributions in addition to the allowance accumulated by the work, but even the mayor cannot have more than three legal offspring!

As a result, in the three thousand years since the city was founded, the number of inhabitants in the city has increased by about 20 percent at most compared to the original.

Part of the reason for this low is that some residents voluntarily give up the opportunity to have the next generation.

As for the technological level and productivity of the city, it depends on the "technological openness" of the federation to it, not on the development of the city itself.

Feng Hao put down the book, and after the maid left, he also got up and walked towards the hall.

Although the visitors disturbed him, the one who could come to visit him had some status, and maybe it would be of some use in the future.

He already had a judgment in his heart, this city was probably really like a special prison, or a place like a breeding farm, and it was not as simple as he thought at first to leave and investigate and find out the general situation of the Interstellar Federation.

Feng Hao stood at the door of the bedroom, and before the automatic door opened, he heard the sound of conversation outside.

He frowned slightly, recognized the voice, and knew that it was his neighbor, a Drow girl!

There are many residents in Star Harbor City, including people of various races, such as Feng Hao is a pure-blooded Gaia, who is about the same appearance as humans, but his skin is golden and hairless, and he is taller than ordinary humans, with a two-meter-five appearance. This bloodline is already quite good in this city, perhaps the original mayor took a fancy to him, promoted him, and even qualified him to enter the interior of the Interstellar Federation's spaceship as a maintenance worker ten years ago, for this reason.

As for the Drow, they are green-skinned humanoids, both men and women, who tend to have a toned body and are excellent coolies.

If it is a pure-blooded drow, then it can only be regarded as a relatively low-level humanoid.

Fortunately, most of the Drow people are not pure-blooded, such as Feng Hao's neighbor's family, which has the blood of the Moon Clan in their blood.

In this starport city, the Moon Clan is a well-deserved nobleman, the real top bloodline.

Therefore, although she is only one-sixteenth of the Moon Clan's bloodline, in terms of bloodline, that Drow girl is worthy of a pure-blood Gaia. It just so happened that the girl was also very interesting to Feng Hao. It's a pity that neither Feng Hao nor his predecessor is interested in the green-skinned girl.
