System: My Doomsday Train-Chapter 704 - 312: "Omen Soul Banner" (Request for Monthly Tickets)_2
After the world restored peace.
He just needed to sell large quantities of virtual game pods, and he could easily create a virtual game world that would surpass other virtual games in both realism and playability, as a form of entertainment.
Not bad.
...
Lying in the "Combat Training Virtual Space," Chen Mang controlled the robot to start exploring the abandoned plaza before him. The familiar factory gates, the familiar guardhouse at the door, all exactly like the factory structure he once encountered in the Adventure Map.
This gave him a feeling as if he was conversing with "Tuo Tuo" from hundreds of years ago.
This sensation was quite unique.
Chen Mang walked into the factory with keen interest to explore every corner. He had a deep impression of everything that happened in the Adventure Map that day. After it ended, Zhang Yiren adapted the map content into a script. Not long ago, it was turned into a movie and had a paid screening on "Water Blue Star," receiving quite a good response.
He also watched that movie.
It was indeed not bad.
Old Pig had reported this event to him. It was also the first paid screening movie on Fixed Star, still holding significant commemorative value. This meant that many entertainment activities, gradually taken from Fixed Star, were transitioning into self-entertainment by the people below.
Activities that can make people entertain themselves are good activities.
The movie content was somewhat melodramatic.
It even included stories like a factory manager having an affair with a repairman’s wife. Even citizens of a Third-level Civilization find it hard to escape the four life’s vices: eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling.
But right at that moment——
"Huh?"
Chen Mang controlled the robot to walk into the "manager’s" office, gazing at a chip inserted into the computer, his eyes flashing with surprise.
When he was in the Adventure Map, there was no chip inserted into the manager’s office computer, marking the first obvious difference from the Adventure Map.
Curiously, he found the chip on the desktop and clicked on it with the mouse.
In the next instant!
The screen suddenly bluescreened, followed by a line of text appearing on the screen.
"This is the diary of the Mechanical Civilization Princess Tuo Tuo."
"I don’t know who will see this diary, perhaps it will be ignored, or maybe in thousands of years it will be found as a relic, but I hope you will carefully safeguard this diary, for it is the last vestige of me in this world."
"Thank you." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
The opening consisted of only these three lines, simple yet straightforward.
"..."
Chen Mang walked out of the "Combat Training Virtual Space," sat back in his chair, lit a cigarette, and looked expectantly at the screen displaying the robot’s perspective.
At moments like these, real immersion seemed not very important.
It was gossip time.
Gossip time required lighting a cigarette, taking it slow, as one of humanity’s intrinsic desires is voyeurism.
Humans are naturally inclined to voyeurism, no one dislikes peeping into others. This isn’t limited to the obsessed peeping types. It comes in many forms, including persistently checking a goddess’s social circles until one day you find she has blocked you.
In anger, you delete the goddess as a friend, only to discover you can now see ten of her photos.
Strangers can see ten, while you can’t see a single one.
Among the many voyeuristic desires, peeking into a diary can release a considerable amount of dopamine, especially a diary written by someone on the brink of death, usually containing at least seventy percent truth.
Yes.
Though hard to admit, humans are also inherently averse to being peeped at, writing little truth in their own diaries, even at the point of death, withholding parts subconsciously despite heartfelt expressions.

"It’s been a long time since I used a physical keyboard to type. This product, which should have been eliminated by the era, is still widely used on a residential star within the Mechanical Civilization."
"Rapid development of civilization can lead to such disparities."
"On the various main stars of Mechanical Civilization, keyboards and mice are displayed in museums as antiques for tourists to visit, yet they are still commonly used on numerous planets."
"The era is advancing."
"But it seems the era has also abandoned many people, and abandoned the Mechanical Civilization."
"Before welcoming death, I decided to design this fragment as my last Adventure Map, hoping people learn about the life state of bottom characters in the Mechanical Civilization through some emotional disputes within this factory."
"The following words are unknown to my AI."
"It is the secret of Mechanical Civilization, and also its greatest shame. Before extinction, the upper echelons of Mechanical Civilization deleted all related information. I recorded it, hoping later generations may know."
"At the time——"
"Mechanical Civilization had long gone extinct. Whether you laughed or were skeptical, or even thought it impossible, I hope that the history of Mechanical Civilization may be truthfully passed on."
"I love my civilization."
"But I also resent it, despite having many opportunities, watching them slip by before its eyes, even going so far as to witness the extinction of civilization out of spite."
"This year marks the 295th year of the war between Mechanical Civilization and Insect Race Civilization. Initially evenly matched, after Insect Race Civilization’s military grew significantly, the battles retreated step by step, unable to withstand."
"Just like every civilization has many voices and factions within."
