After the discussion concluded, the four formally moved on to the main topic—dividing the money.
This might seem a bit cliché, but in fact, coming into unexpected wealth truly ranks among the top three happiest things for humans. Of course, it's more commonly referred to as a 'pleasant surprise', and it doesn't shift with people's status and wealth—at most, it just weakens. Even when soone is as rich as a nation, encountering such a circumstance still often sparks a brief flash of delight, thinking that today's luck isn't too bad.
Although this sort of 'not bad' is but an ambiguous, purely psychological concept, just as acquiring a windfall cannot truly increase their wealth in a substantial sense. It's questionable whether the other party even regards it as 'wealth', but people can't help thinking this way.
Just like rational thinking often takes a back seat to emotional reasoning.
Not to ntion that to Fang Hong, ZXC, and Little Fatty, this constitutes a substantial windfall no matter how one looks at it, and thus it's understandable for the trio to feel a bit excitable and conform to expectations.
According to the agreent, the Shield of Lufu would take half of it, while the Seven Seas Travel Group would take the other half, with ZXC and Little Fatty representing the forr, and Fang Hong safeguarding it for the latter—as for the internal distribution within the Shield of Lufu, Fang Hong had no business ddling with or inquiring about it. As for the Seven Seas side, since the group fund was established early on, much of this money would likely be handed over.
With that in mind, Fang Hong greatly wanted to touch those beautiful Gold Coins sentintally one last ti, but fortunately, he managed to restrain such an embarrassing impulse, at least maintaining the minimal dignity of the Seven Seas Travel Group's leader.
Information transformation isn't completed all at once; in the past, it seed as if several thousand Lycel could be converted at the drop of a hat, simply because the amount of money wasn't yet sizable enough. Fang Hong estimated that the maximum speed was about two to three thousand Lycel per second. Others might have already known this secret, but he hadn't witnessed it before, having never personally handled so much money—the price of poverty.
Fang Hong couldn't help but shed tears of humiliation for his ignorance—albeit only in his imagination. The speed of money conversion wasn't fixed, with fluctuations of several hundred Lycel at different tis. In terms of two or three thousand, this variance wasn't insignificant.
After thinking about it, he realized the reason—it seed the speed of transformation was based on 'mass' rather than 'currency value'. You could also say 'quantity of matter', although this quantity wasn't counted per Gold Coin, but possibly as smaller particles.
Such as the fundantal Starlight or Elent that makes up this world. He watched as the Gold Coins touched by him, Little Fatty, and ZXC gradually beca semi-transparent, finally fading altogether, transforming into a beam of light, disappearing in their palms. That light was pure white, akin to Starlight, but Fang Hong thought it might precisely be a form of external manifestation of High Dinsional Information in this world.
Other two didn't realize anything from this small detail, but to Fang Hong it presented a special vista. In his heart, he engaged in a quiet exchange with Miss Tata, Eteliria was a world built upon Starlight, sothing well-known to the people on Earth—
This is information from a High Dinsional World that was left behind in this realm.
However, Eteliria itself isn't a High Dinsional World; indeed, it manifests in quite a material way and entirely complies with our cognition, and the Native inhabitants' understanding of 'High Dinsional Information' might even be more ignorant compared to another world.
Natives consider Starlight to be a divine substance.
It might be a gift from the Creator 'Yita', the Light of Life, the origin of the world. But what dinsions are, what High Dinsional existence is, and what kind of information Starlight conceals, people here are completely oblivious to it. Starlight constructs Eteliria into a world imbued with Elents and Ether Power, completely distinct from our universe. Physical Laws, natural rules, almost nowhere overlap.
Yet, the High Dinsional Information contained within Starlight often has nothing to do with Eteliria but consists of Knowledge, technology, and truths that are universally applicable in another universe, on Earth. Thanks to these gifts from the High Dinsional World, humanity advanced to where they are today in a few short decades.
It resembles more of a gift from an ancient civilization—
For this reason, so believe 'Eteliria' is a 'virtual world' constructed by a High Dinsional civilization, where the abundant High Dinsional Information acts like the core binary code of a ga. In this way, the existence of the world beyond the Stargate isn't hard to comprehend. Of course, this is rely a simple conjecture; reality is far more complex.
In Eteliria, residents recognize that Starlight's manner of existence isn't completely imperceptible, as there are at least two possibilities allowing ordinary people to access High Dinsional Information's unfolding in this world.
Over a millennium ago, there was only one path to this route, gaining the Nature Dragon Spirit's approval to beco a Sky Knight.
