Crossing the World

Crossing the World
XXXII - Earth (Karen)


AI said that the time needed to reconstruct the artificial forest reached one month. He needed to reconsider the layout of the various seeds I had brought, spread fertilizers and mutated worms and insects, as well as, and rearranging artificial lakes to make it possible to filter seawater so that it will not become brackish and drought.


The fish seeds I offer are various types of freshwater fish. So, maintaining the salt content of water is one of the important points. Fortunately, AI can design a fresh water generator using simple principles.


A fresh water generator is a freshwater generating system consisting of an evaporator and a condenser. The seawater delivered using a centrifugal water pump will move through small metal pipes to be heated by the heat created by the hydrogen oxidation process. After boiling, all this water will flow in a cross section of metal to be reheated at once evaporated. Water vapor will rise upwards, passing through hundreds of other small metal pipes submerged in the depths of the ocean. Low sea water temperatures will cool the pipes so that the steam inside each pipe starts to turn into water. All this water will be pumped into special tubes to be mixed with various materials to produce good quality fresh water. After all the process is completed, this good quality water will flow towards both artificial lakes. This process will continue to repeat until the lake reaches a certain height before finally stopping the entire process automatically. Of course when the water level decreases, this process will be active again.


I don't have to worry about my island going dry even if there is drought all year round.


The next thing I need to think about is choosing a suitable place for this island. The place should rarely be passed by ships and have dangerous ferocious waves. Then, the southern China sea area, the malacca strait, and the southern sea of Java island will be a good choice.


The southern China Sea is a region often waded by large ships. The waves there are violent, but the sea lane is quite crowded. I don't think it's good territory to put my island there.


Malacca strait. Let's look at the article related to this place.


Hey ... isn't this like a highway at sea? There are too many ships passing through this area. It is even much more crowded than the southern Chinese sea region if we look at it based on the level of crowds per nautical mile. Let's cross this area off the map.


Next lived the southern sea of Java island.


The area of jni stretches all the way to the Australian Continent. Its vast territory resulted in the wind blowing unimpeded. As a result, the strong wind created a ferocious wave. Because of the ferocious waves in the southern sea, there is a myth among the natives about the supernatural kingdom that resides in the sea.


The potential he possessed was incredible and his territory was quite vast. Maybe this area is suitable for my island. For now, I will mark about two hundred kilometers Northeast of Cristmast Island. The distance from Java Island is about two hundred kilometers. So, this region should be quite safe. I'm not too big anyway. It would not be easy to find him in the middle of the ferocious sea.


The place has been chosen. The last thing I have to do next is build a company. No, no. Let's forget about building something so troublesome like that. I just need to work with one of the existing gaming companies.


The days I spent surfing the internet through the comfort of my bed. Even my food and drinks were provided by the robots controlled by Aura. To be honest, living like this is amazingly fun. Oh, I'm not having fun right now. I really am working hard.


"There are a lot of big gaming companies, but they are all based overseas. Is the game not popular here?"


I muttered as I ate the potato chips that Aura had just delivered.


"I don't think it's like that." The one who answered was Aura himself through a robot controlled by him. The robot is now standing beside my bed. "The residents of this country are used to consuming illegal products. So, the emerging gaming companies in the country are very difficult to develop."


Hm, that? In that case, I should also target the international market for the game that I am about to release. Uh...no, no, no! I don't intend to seek profit! There is no need for an international market at all!


Let's continue my search.


Actually, I could have chosen a small company to work with. I have a lot of money, enough to rent a place everywhere. All the devices I brought were also free because they came from the shelter. There should be nothing bad going on financially. However, I'm sure troublesome matters will spring up as time goes by.


By the time I sank into my own thoughts, Aura suddenly spoke.


"What about Palapa Inc?"


Palapa Inc is the name of a local giant company that successfully competes with various other giant companies in the world. Its futuristic products managed to attract people and slowly shift the existence of smartphones. Though the age of this company is still fairly young, but its growth rate is at a terrible level. They will probably rule the world in the next few years.


Ah, that's not what I'm looking for!


Palapa Inc is a good candidate. However, there was one thing that made me not consider cooperating with that company.


"The company is engaged in technology, not gaming. Obviously they won't glance at my proposal."


I answered Aura's question with a pessimistic sentence. However, Aura's subsequent answer slightly changed my presepsychology to this matter.


"Try to think carefully. The technology of the game you are about to release is much more advanced than the entire technology on earth. They will even be willing to prostrate for the sake of gaining your trust."


What he said made sense. I never thought about getting there because I think the technology of this game is a trivial thing.


The NPCs in the simulation were truly living artificial intelligence. They move according to each other's will without any program affecting them. Instead of NPCs, it might be more appropriate if I were to refer to them as virtual living beings.


The machine I am about to use is able to affect all five human senses, making the sensation of living inside virtual reality reach the level of perfect reality. Of course, I would lower the sensitivity of the pain and block it right before it suffered a fatal wound. AI also provides a sensor panel that can be manually switched on or off so that most of the image of the annoying wound can be censored. So, there will be no trauma caused from this game.


Come to think of it, all the mechanics and composition of the planets in the game are incredible treasures that can trigger the acceleration of technological development. Any company would not view my game as a trivial one. Therefore, it is not surprising that technology companies even want it as well.


"You're a genius, Aura! I'll draw up a plan to make contact with Palapa Inc!"


The construction of the world's first virtual reality game is about to begin. I hope everything goes according to plan.
