The True Thousand Gold Possessions of the Myriad Realms Trading System

For someone who studies physics, a chubby baby from a high-tech dimension with its own thoughts is incredibly precious.

The chubby baby was delighted and waved his plump little hand: "You're smart. You guys continue."

Although Professor Huang had something to say, he still gave the chubby baby a sharp look before continuing, "Suppose the Federation's technology is 100 and we are only at 10, the gap is 90. We can't study it thoroughly in a short time. We have to study it slowly, or we can collect the technologies in this range and unlock them in order."

He poured himself a glass of water and continued speaking.

"Another situation is that technology, like industry, requires a foundation. For example, making a garment seems like it can be done by sewing fabric together, right? But in reality, even at the simplest level, it requires raising silkworms to reel silk or collecting raw materials, peeling the skin, and drawing threads, then weaving the fabric. This weaving requires a loom, and the loom needs to be researched and made... This inevitably brings us to the industrial foundation."

Lin Xiao nodded repeatedly: "I understand."

After a brief discussion, everyone unanimously decided to exchange the books or technology products here.

After discussing it, Ruan Mianmian couldn't help but sigh, "I never expected that there would be such a big difference between parallel universes."

Professor Zhang frowned slightly: "The level of civilization here is higher than ours. I wonder if this is a sign that we will soon face a similar catastrophe."

These words weighed heavily on everyone's minds.

Time passed by, and the outside temperature gradually decreased.

At 6 p.m. local time, the sun began to set, and the temperature dropped to 47 degrees Celsius, still an unbearable high temperature for the human body.

Another half hour passed, and the sun completely set, with the temperature dropping back to 28 degrees Celsius.

This is a temperature that humans can tolerate and move around in.

Ruan Mianmian opened the roller shutter and sat down with everyone at the entrance to wait.

Although the square has several entrances, Ruan Mianmian only opened the south entrance due to the special circumstances.

Soon, cameras installed outside the mall captured two groups of people approaching the mall.

One group was a group of children, the oldest of whom was only 1.6 meters tall. They came from the south.

The other group consisted of only one person, an adult, who carefully crawled over from the north.

The two groups of people looked at the mall with expressions of shock and disbelief.

Obviously, it is incredible that such a magnificent and intact building would suddenly appear after such a terrible disaster.

At this moment, Ruan Mianmian noticed that groups of people were emerging from all directions of the mall. However, these people were quite cautious and moved slowly, probably observing the situation.

Gu Shi and Tang You reviewed the surveillance footage from all directions, their expressions turning serious: "Once we confirm that the danger is not high, these people are very likely to launch an attack on our mall. Everyone must be careful."

Ruan Mianmian nodded hurriedly and then went to check the surveillance footage.

She noticed that because the group of children had been running, it was actually this group of eight children who arrived at the mall first.

As the eight children approached, their figures and faces became clearly visible to everyone.

When Ruan Mianmian and the others guarding the gate saw that it was a group of thin, pale children standing anxiously outside the gate, they felt extremely sorry for them and exclaimed, "My God, these children are still so young."

Despite this, out of caution, no one opened the door. Instead, they looked at them with concern, assessing whether they were in any danger.

Ruan Mianmian thought for a moment, then turned on the speakerphone and asked from inside the door, "Children, why did you all run out? Where are your parents?"

"Sister, I'm hungry, I'm so hungry..." A little girl who looked about six or seven years old blinked her big eyes, swallowed her saliva, and looked pitifully at Ruan Mianmian.

The professors were all quite old and couldn't bear to see children suffer. Seeing the children outside the door swallowing their saliva from hunger, they felt very sorry for them and kept asking, "Mianmian, Youyou, have you finished your observation? Have you reached a conclusion? When can you open the door and invite these children in to eat?"

Although everyone has a protective shield, each person only has one shield and cannot use it indefinitely. Therefore, before opening the door, one must first observe whether the person coming has murderous intent and whether they are friend or foe.

Ruan Mianmian felt sorry for the children, but she also felt something was off.

As for what felt off, she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

At this moment, Tang You said, "I still feel uneasy. Let's observe it further."

Ruan Mianmian glanced at the adult who had come alone from the north. Seeing that he was still crawling cautiously, she had a flash of inspiration and immediately said, "Don't open the door!"

"What's wrong? Is there something amiss?" the professors asked hastily.

Ruan Mianmian pointed to the adults who had arrived at the north gate of the mall and said, "Even an adult is being cautious when coming here. What makes these kids dare to swagger in like this?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the adults on the screen, then at the group of pitiful children outside the door, clutching their bellies. A chill crept up from the bottom of their hearts and quickly spread throughout their bodies.

Tang You said in a deep voice, "Our country has seen children committing suicide attacks abroad more than once."

The professors all gasped.

After a long pause, Professor Huang spoke: "But those children are thinly dressed and shouldn't be carrying any weapons."

Ruan Mianmian also noticed, but it was really strange that such a group of children were moving around so casually after the disaster.

After a moment's thought, she suggested, "How about we make a commotion to scare the kids outside and see how they react before we decide?" It would also be a good opportunity to see how the adult climbing toward the south gate would react.

Everyone was worried about something going wrong, so they quickly agreed to the proposal.

Under Gu Shi's control, a gunshot suddenly rang out from outside the door.

The eight children outside the door were startled and immediately backed away, but after a few steps, they suddenly raised their hands and knelt down with tears streaming down their faces.

Professor Li said, "This is the behavior of a weak person who is bullied and whose life is in constant danger. There seems to be no problem."

The other professors nodded in agreement.

However, Tang You and Gu Shi, along with the others responsible for protecting everyone, remained silent. They simply watched the children outside without opening the door.

Gu Shi squinted and replayed the children's reactions: "They initially tried to run away, but it seems one of the children shouted something and then knelt down and begged for mercy."

Tang You hurriedly asked, "What did that child say? Could you tell?"

Fang Yang sat in front of the computer and worked quickly: "Both the amplification and the radio reception use new technologies, so there shouldn't be any problems."

Just 20 seconds later, everyone heard the child scream.

"Baka! Hi, Mom's tenant (kneels down) --"

Upon hearing this sound, everyone's expression turned grim.

Those pitiful-looking children outside are from the Chrysanthemum Country!

In dangerous situations or under duress, people generally speak their native language, with virtually no exceptions.
