Chapter 700: Chapter 665: The Unconventional Champion
Super Tomato knew that in “My World,” building a keyboard that could input and a disy that could disy in real-time had an incredibly high technical level.
But at the same time, he was very sure that this gadget could win the runner-up, and the technical voting rate might not be as high as this counter-sky conversation.
Because if you go too far in technology, ordinary yers won’t understand it, and they’ll feel alienated, at most feeling a bit “impressive but obscure.”
In this sort of vote for all yers, it is not more advantageous than direct visual stimtion.
Unless your technology is really much stronger than others.
And coincidentally: the winning work is such a work.
The [Redstone Challenge] winning work is called:
[Red Tooth]
Just looking at the name, it’s a bit unclear.
But the introduction to the work is much clearer:<div>
“The exploration of the application of redstone wireless technology: from the BB machine to wireless payments.”
The entry point they used to introduce their technology is: a BB machine.
A truly long-distance, wireless signal transmitting BB machine.
As we all know, the huge map of “My World” does not always exist, and areas beyond a certain range of yer’s vision will not load.
So even in the same world, if two yers are too far apart, they are actually on two separate “floating inds” without any physical block connections between them, and theoretically, they can’t interact with each other unless they use systemmunications.
─ Because there’s nothing loaded in the middle, it’s just a void.
But the champion’s BB machine ovees these limitations and can directly transmit signals beyond unloaded areas.
And the transmission distance and speed are unlimited!
Due to the length of the video, the author briefly introduces some key technology implementation methods, but Super Tomato couldn’t understand them at all.
What are bud circuits, piston encoders and decoders, clock circuits, signal filtering, redstone broadcasting, automatic telegraphs, wireless signal address detection…
Just this long list of familiar terms in reality but unheard of in “My World” haspletely confused him.
Not only him, but also very few “My World” yers can understand them. Only a few great masters who have done enough research in redstone technology can barely keep up with the exnations.
But at least Super Tomato understood the meaning of the title “Red Tooth” ─ a reference to “Bluetooth” in reality.
And he quickly realized the most awesome part of this work:
From wired to wireless, this is an important leap in technology.
How important it is can be seen from the reality of wired phones to mobile phones and even traditional Inte to mobile Inte!
In the game of “My World,” it is nothing less than a “Redstone Technology Revolution”!
It’s just that the threshold is too high for most yers toe into contact with.
This team obviously thought about this point and did something even more awesome for demonstration: wireless payments!<div>
They created a huge ry and bank─essentially adding piston structures to all storage units and indicators, storing 9999 emeralds.
ーObviously, they conducted their R&D in creative mode.
Subsequently, they built an automatic vending machine far away on the map and demonstrated shopping.
Selecting the item [Weapons], opening the chest, nothing.<div>
But the device operates─Super Tomato couldn’t understand the specific method of operation, but with the chest opened again, a diamond sword “appeared out of thin air.”
After being teleported back to the “Bank,” it was found that the 9999 emeralds had be 9527.
Obviously, the payment has beenpleted!
By giving an example like this, they instantly transformed this “outrageous technology” into something tangible and familiar to everyone, without losing the “high-end” feel of this technology.
At the end of the video, the author also states: “This is just the beginning! Our ultimate goal is the [Smart City]! Stay tuned!”
The unimaginable technologybined with the seemingly familiar but outrageous examples sessfully made this work win the highest number of votes and im the championship!
All thements in thement section are various rainbow farts:
“Well deserved!”
“Great job!”
“I dere: from now on, ‘My World’ is officially leaving the dark ages and entering the age of technology!”
“Now that we have wireless signal technology, when will we start working on fire control arrays?”
“Would you consider making ‘Smart City’ into a mod? Will there be houses for sale when it’s done? Save one for me!”
“Don’t get any tricky ideas, stay away from gambling addiction!”<div>
…
“It’s very likely. Now that they have the technology and money, they can fully focus on making the mod. Once the mod is done, it’ll be another source of ie, turning hobby into a career, full of potential.” Super Tomato said with emotion.
Although they finished third, they relied on gimmicks, and there was no chance for them to transform in that direction.
They couldn’t just create a “saucy pictures world” then upload it as a mod, right?
As soon as a yer entered the world, there would be saucy clouds in the sky, saucy grass on the ground, saucy mountains in the distance, saucy river paths, saucy-shaped buildings, and saucy pictures hanging all over the rooms inside the buildings?
That would be crazy, right?!
He quickly shook his head to clear it of the unhealthy ideas and looked at the other National Construction Competition.
Compared to the highly concentrated prize money of the Redstone Challenge, the National Construction Competition was much more evenly distributed. The top 10 all won money, but the gap wasn’t as exaggerated as being one or two digits apart.
And each of the top 10 works was awe-inspiring at first nce.
Camille Victoria’s team eventually submitted a work called “Whale Group.”
Arge whale is surrounded by twelve smaller whales, encircled byrge and small clouds, depicting the whales swimming through the sky.
They abandoned the idea of “an old man fishing for whales” and reced it with a small house built on the back of thergest whale, inhabited by a “little girl.”
Of course, the girl only looked small due to perspective.<div>
If a yer were to go there, the little girl would be as tall as a two-story building…
To increase thepetitiveness of their work, they also wrote a short story: “The Girl on the Whale’s Back” and included it in the introduction.
Both the scale and thepletion of this work were already quite high.
But in the end, they finished in fifth ce.
It wasn’t that their work was bad, but there were simply too manypetitors in the National Construction Competition, and many strong ones at that!
Every single one of the top 10 works was incredible—
10th ce: “World Tree”
9th ce: “Drac Castle”
8th ce: “Ice Crystal Ball”
7th ce: “Tower Kingdom”
6th ce: “Sky City”
5th ce: “Whale Group”
4th ce: “Moon Pce”n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om<div>
3rd ce: “Chang’an Academy”
2nd ce: “Gusu”
And the champion in 1st ce—
“Lagrange: Beacon of Hope Space Station!”
Yes, among the rankings that were dominated by traditional Chinese aesthetics, the first ce was unexpectedly a “space architecture”pletely different from everyone else’s!
Under the background music of a space opera, a huge space station appeared, silently floating in space.
Below it was an enormous sun, constantly churning withva!
The vastness, depth, silence, and infinity of cosmic space,bined with the wisdom, strength, dreams, and creativity of human civilization, shone together brilliantly.
This scene instantly captivated all the yers.
Super Tomato was also shaken by the shock, but soon he had a question:
“How did they create that sun? Did they make it directly with mod features? Isn’t that against the rules?”
