Chapter 029: Proof
获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第029章 证明
Wang Bo's method of proving himself was actually very simple.
He took a Copy Mirror out of his four-dimensional pocket and, in front of Chunli and Yazi, used it to duplicate a teacup. "See? This is one of my treasures, the Copy Mirror. If I were a member of some drug cartel, I wouldn't need to go to the Golden Triangle to make drugs. I could just use the Copy Mirror and easily produce a huge pile of drugs."
Yako and Chunli looked at each other, their faces full of disbelief.
But the fact was right before their eyes. Staring at the two identical cups on the tea table, for a moment neither of them could speak.
After Wang Bo sent the copying mirror back, he took out an ultra-thin laptop computer.
"This is a futuristic laptop. I got it from another world. Come take a look."
Wang Bo beckoned. Yako and Chunli exchanged a glance and, as if by tacit agreement, came closer.
It was 1992, and although laptop computers already existed, how could those outdated old things compare to the modern laptop in Wang Bo's hands.
"The notebook you are seeing now, under normal development, would not come out for about a dozen years, and the system used by the computer is even more advanced, also not due for another dozen years."
"To put it bluntly, this is actually a product from over a decade in the future."
"Besides, I can also show you a phone from the future. Here it is."
Wang Bo took a smartphone out of his four-dimensional pocket, turned it on in front of Meiko and Chunli, and used it smoothly for a while.
"See? This phone is also a smartphone that won't appear for another decade or more. Compared to the phones you're using now, isn't it much smoother? Forget computers—the performance of this phone alone is enough to crush most computers of your era."
Wang Bo handed the phone to Yazi and Chunli, telling them how to use it.
The two women, one holding a phone and the other a computer, couldn't help but become engrossed in them.
After all, for people living in this era, a mobile phone from over a decade later is a futuristic sci-fi product, and such a product is enough to drive countless people wild.
When the iPhone first launched its smartphone, it also captivated countless people.
Even if neither the phone nor the computer was connected to the internet, the two of them still couldn't put them down.
The allure of such a groundbreaking product is virtually irresistible.
"Now you understand: if I want to make money, I don't need to deal drugs at all. I just need to take out gold and gems, copy them, and I can obtain infinite wealth. To be blunt, becoming the world's richest person is only a matter of time. Now you should understand why I wouldn't care about those tens of millions of dollars."
Upon hearing Wang Bo's words, Yazi and Chunli finally came to their senses, and both women's faces blushed simultaneously.
Well, when you're rich to that extent, you really don't need to care about tens of millions of dollars.
In other words, from the very beginning, the two of them had been terribly wrong.
Chunli's face was so red it looked as if it might bleed. From the very beginning, she had been suspicious of Wang Bo in every possible way, but now she finally understood that she seemed to have wronged a good person.
"You really are an envoy of the multiverse gods. There really are gods in this world."
Wang Bo said, "Some worlds have gods, some worlds don't, but the multiverse definitely has gods. By the way, your world probably doesn't have gods, yet it is still part of the multiverse. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Chun-Li nodded.
Yazi couldn't help but ask, "The Ripple Qigong you taught us, it couldn't be from another world, could it?"
Wang Bo couldn't help nodding. "You're quite smart. Yes, Ripple Qigong does come from another world, a world with vampires, humans, Pillar Men, and Stand Users."
"I know about vampires and humans, but what are Pillar Men, and what are Stand Users?"
Wang Bo explained, "Pillar Men are an ancient super-lifeform, very similar in appearance to humans, but they are not human, because they are completely different from humans."
They possess nearly infinite lifespans, along with superhuman physical strength and incredible abilities. They can directly absorb other living beings as nourishment, freely alter their own body structures, and their cells can secrete powerful digestive fluids. Their only weakness is that they cannot face the sun, or else they would be petrified.
"By the way, the Pillar Men once created the Stone Mask, a miraculous object. Any human who wears it is transformed into a vampire."
"In other words, in that world, vampires were actually created by the Pillar Men."
"As for Stand users, they are humans who possess a Stand, which is a powerful image generated by the life energy within the body. Since this image always appears beside the human body, it is called a Stand."
And Stand users have a very interesting trait: ordinary people cannot see Stands; only Stand users can see them.
Yazi couldn't help but say, "I always feel that the world you're talking about is very interesting—Stand users, Pillar Men, Stone Masks, vampires, and Ripple."
As she spoke, a trace of longing involuntarily appeared on her face.
This kind of thing is actually quite normal.
It was just like how ordinary people, after finishing a wuxia novel, would also yearn for the world of martial arts.
Wang Bo said, "It's only interesting to hear about. That world is very backward—no phones, no computers, no TV, not even supermarkets. If you went into that world, you'd probably go crazy from boredom before long."
"To be blunt, the more accustomed one is to living in a convenient future world, the harder it is to adapt to an ancient world."
"People who, like in a novel, travel back to the ancient world and still manage to thrive are either protagonists or pure nonsense."
"After all, in ancient times there wasn't even toilet paper, let alone all kinds of miracle drugs."
"If you're not in good health, a simple cold could be the end of you."
"Moreover, modern people carry all kinds of pathogens. If they were to enter ancient times, they might well cause a massive catastrophe."
Wang Bo's words completely shattered Yazi's illusions.
"You've had it rough too." Yazi patted Wang Bo on the shoulder and said.
"Now do you believe me? I'm really not part of a drug trafficking ring. I just want to live an ordinary, normal life." Wang Bo rubbed his temples and said, "Also, please keep this matter confidential from others, can you two?"
Yazi said, "Even if I told people, no one would believe it."
Wang Bo nodded.
That's right, without ironclad facts, no one would believe these words at all.
