Chapter 26 (2/2)
”Certainly not. Since my capability of getting information has been much improved. I can get more code programs.”
”How?” Huang Xuan sat up.
”From higher-level time and s.p.a.ce.”
Huang Xuan was elated. ”Does that mean we can travel to the future?”
”It's higher-level plane time and s.p.a.ce.” Rolin corrected. ”At the time being, I can only get information and can't move substances.”
”Then what's the use?”
Rolin replied patiently, ”Information is valuable. I can get a lot of programs like the one the man was interested in buying just now.”
”Really?” Huang Xuan doubted. ”My mom said that everything has two sides. I don't believe you can become unrivaled suddenly.”
Rolin was silent for a second, and then said, ”Although getting information can't create energy, it causes the instability of the plane and brings about superimposed effect.”
”Technology is the first productive force,” Huang Xuan retorted.
”The more the technology influences productive force, the more unstable it makes the base. Therefore the superimposed effect would be stronger because the plane has to use more energy to remove it. On this account, getting technological information wasn't permitted before temporal and spatial oscillations.”
”What do you do now?” Huang Xuan was still doubtful.
”I haven't received new orders, so currently my main task is to elevate the level of the base and monitor the state of the planes.”
”In other words, let it be.” Huang Xuan shrugged his shoulders. ”It's all Rolin's business. Should the sky fall, the tall are the ones to hold it up.”
”What's my authority now? How do I use and improve it?” asked Huang Xuan. This was what he cared about.
”At present, your authority is at level 23, meaning you can enter and use the base. On account of your unpaid supply and further contributions, the guardian has upgraded your authority.”
”The guardian is you, isn't it?”
”Yes.”
Huang Xuan felt scorn for Rolin's shamelessness. However, he looked forward to the elevation of his authority. He nodded his head casually, closed the book on the desk and asked, ”Specifically speaking, what can I do with my authority?”
”Using the infrastructure, energy, and funds of the base and take over the base when it is necessary.”
Huang Xuan blinked his eyes and asked, ”Take it over? What about you?”
”Your are still subordinate to the base guardian now. Only when I am in an abnormal working state can you take the base over.”
Huang Xuan felt that it was not a good idea to talk about ”seizing the throne” with the ”king”, so he changed the subject cleverly and asked, ”Rolin, can the base help me with my homework?”
