And as Luke spoke, his mind churned with inspiration; this pure white, clean network world was also undergoing a unique transformation.
It seemed to gradually acquire a touch of brilliance and color that permeated the space.
Ickshonpe was mesmerized.
It was clearly just a seemingly insignificant idea, one that would be almost unthinkable, consigned to a corner.
But when Luke explained it this way… It seemed as if the future was bright and incredibly promising!
And just as he was listening intently, shaking his head and turning his graffiti face, Luke's voice suddenly stopped.
[Huh? Why did it stop?!?]
The moment the voice stopped, chat boxes began to pop up frantically in Ickshonpe's head.
[What's next? What's next?!?!]
[This is clearly the most crucial and exciting part!!]
[There must be a next part, right!?]
One chat box after another popped up frantically in Ickshonpe's head.
It was clear that he was completely captivated.
But after so many chat boxes appeared, he received no response.
Unconsciously, he turned to look at Luke.
Only to see Luke smiling silently at him.
Ickshonpe: [...]
After a moment of silence, his anxiety slowly faded, and he began to sober up.
Without hesitation, he raised his hand and caught a ray of light from the vast white dots of light in the network world.
He then threw it towards Luke.
[This is my access code...]
Messages continued to appear on Ickshonpe's chat box: [From now on, you can use this number to directly enter my place.]
[I will immediately close the previous invitation number.]
[And I will also open up some of the permissions of this network world to you in the future.]
[For example, the chat room content you mentioned earlier...]
Sharing the privileges of one's network world requires a considerable amount of trust and price.
Although Luke believed that with Ickshonpe's mastery of this place, he might be able to revoke these permissions at any time if he wanted.
Of course, there is a price to pay for this. It could be said that offering such a reward showed Ickshonpe's sincerity.
After casually accepting the phone number and receiving some access to this network world, Luke clearly sensed a different side of this place.
It was as though some of the hidden unknowns here were no longer secrets in his eyes.
Luke also gained a deeper understanding and familiarity with this place.
[Actually, the principle regarding chat rooms is very simple.]
Once he saw the rabbit, Luke began to spread his wings and fly.
He casually threw out some preliminary concepts about chatrooms.
These things weren't too far-fetched; they were all about the upcoming, ushering in the 1990s.
Sometimes moving forward a little is progress, but moving too far too fast is just taking a step so big you'll trip yourself up.
Furthermore, at this point in the 1980s, approaching the 1990s, society hadn't yet developed, and the corresponding technology and soil for the network's further advancement were lacking.
You have to eat one bite at a time; you can't become fat all at once.
And besides, with such crucial technology, it's impossible to reveal everything.
Rather, as Ickshonpe's network world gradually develops, at key moments of growth, he will continue to offer his own perspectives and content, driving further development.
This way, his knowledge of the internet can be firmly integrated with Ickshonpe's online development.
And this knowledge can be transformed into an indispensable force for the growth of this network world, earning a significant share of the credit.
This is how Luke can maximize the benefits he reaps from this network world!
He is doing this to help the network world grow, but it's certainly not just for the sake of social and contemporary development!
Obtaining access to the chat room from Ickshonpe is a crucial step for him.
"Once the chat room becomes popular, many people will talk about it a lot, driven by the novelty and the desire to share and communicate."
These thoughts began to surface in Luke's mind: "Even after the novelty wears off, this will undoubtedly become an indispensable part of their lives."
"And among these, complaints and pleas will undoubtedly account for a significant portion."
"After all, in this world, only a few live happy and fulfilling lives."
"The majority live unhappy lives, suffering the torment and torture of the world and society, and have accumulated countless resentments in their hearts."
"If that's the case, what if the chat room for them to share and communicate had a feature for venting and making wishes..."
Luke's eyes grew brighter.
"Then even if it's just a small portion, they'll definitely provide me with an unimaginable amount of requests!!"
"In that case, perhaps with the massive amount of requests, no matter what kind of invention or how extreme the item's effects, it might be possible to materialize it!!"
That's right!!
Everything Luke did was to create sufficient conditions for his own Nen ability!!
Once he had permissions within this network world, if he aligned part of the chatroom functions with himself… and leveraged the network world, the chatroom's outpouring wishes would fulfill the condition for his Nen ability…
Back in Meteor City, through the spread of a single work, Battle of the Beasts, he had already gained many inventions by fulfilling those conditions.
And if he also had the power of the internet, with Battle of the Beasts, laying the foundation, the network world would solidify his unshakable future!!
Luke could already foresee that beautiful future beckoning him!!
"Of course, all of this depends on everything going smoothly and ideally for it to succeed."
After receiving the permissions, Luke was in a very good mood: "Perhaps after the chat room is established, there will be some problems or limitations."
"But based on this, as long as the conditions for my Nen ability are met…"
"Then no matter how I calculate it, it's a sure win!!"
"Not to mention it's leveraging the internet, a platform so ubiquitous that people around the world can't ignore and will be an essential part of the future!!"
This thought further solidified Luke's determination to build this network world with Ickshonpe.
Luke had long ago seen the name Ickshonpe from Ging Freecss.
After understanding the current state of the network world, he was determined.
All of this, for his ability, for his inventions, for a brighter and better future!!
Luke was filled with contentment and anticipation.
Next to him, Ickshonpe was also immersed in the wonderful experience of this burst of inspiration.
