Chapter 1934 Ruined!
"Hahah!!!~... It works! It really works, your Highness!" Kilmonga and the others exploded with excitement when talking to Frederik through the phone. In Frederik's case, although he was a Non-UN empire person, his Majesty Landon himself and several others had signed for them. So of course they could get the phones. Several people felt teary eyed, staring at Landon's group like ultimate saviors. Godly… godly… who knew they could ever receive such godly artifacts in this life? Wow! .they could download music, audiobooks, ebooks and several other contents to use when they head back to Laboon. So rather than struggling to fit all the information now, they can read up while traveling back, spending this time enjoying Baymard. However, they knew that they must read everything before entering Laboon. People in this world know better than to put their eggs in one basket. Life has taught them severally that physical things can burn, get lost or be destroyed, but their brains are theirs and must be trained and capable enough to store all data. They just first rely on themselves before relying on physical items. After a long time of experimentation, Frederik and his gang returned to their grand suite to continue understanding the devices in their hands. All of them chose different phones, ones they truly liked. They found that some phones had some free features from the app store while other phones require you to pay. For example, anyone buying Motorola RAZR will find that B-Netflix on the device is free for them. This is because the Phone company Koodo, has shared in Netflix and those who buy phones get 4 months free Netflix subscription, after which they must pay. Again, anyone buying any Blackberry phone, be it Blackberry Bold 9000 or Blackberry Torch 9800, will have Adobe Acrobat and 4 other Adobe software free for 6 months. Those buying any Nokia devices have Office Suite 101 free for 1 year. Know that the Nokia Landon made had a larger screen than what many on Earth were used to seeing in the early 2000s. He made it this way so that people can stream, play games and do other features too. This was why several people still chose the Nokia 3300 and Nokia 2000 phones. The screens weren't greenish yellow like back on Earth, but almost gave the illusion of a clear touchscreen, despite its simple aesthetics. Of course, Landon had no plan of unleashing any touch screen devices yet… at least not until the next 2 years. Next year, simple early 2000 Laptops will be released, and only after then can they talk about touch screen release.
. Like so, on this weekend before the great long holiday began, several people now acquired cell phones that kept them quite entertained. "Hello? Yes! You won't believe it Chris, but I've called your home landline from my new Nokia 3300 flip phone!" "Well, what do you mean, mom? Do you mean I can't call you because I miss you?... Although I have to admit it's because I got this new Blackberry Torch!"
Pfft~
Several people sat on their beds with legs hung high and backs facing the ceiling, as they covered away with great satisfaction. Some people in buses heading home, also found that they could indeed use the internet while seated in the buses. However, if they begin moving for long distances while out of the bus, their data turns off and a message pops up telling them to focus on the road. Oh? So it's safety conscious too? The new rules added to pedestrian policy states that one is forbidden to move while looking at their cell phones for more than 1 minute. If you have something urgent to attend to, stop, step away from the road and attend to it fast. While walking, you must keep your eyes on the road. You are only allowed to listen to music at the volume level setting called 'driving/walking'. Just because Landon introduced the internet, didn't mean he wished for this world to become the same as Earth where people walk with their heads always down, not taking note of their surroundings and the beauty all around them. He still admired the way these medieval people used their brains and memory, and would like for it to remain this way. So yes. The law refuses for anyone to be driving/walking and looking at their phones for longer than a minute. Only when standing still and away from the roads can this be okay. The fine for this was 2000 BAYS, no questions asked. Know that the improved monthly salary in UN empires was 480 copper coins rather than 290~300. And in Baymard, sending what town, city or village you are in, it was between 560 to 680 Copper coins…. 680 copper coins being the average in the capital city. 0.07501 Bays = 1 copper coin. So this translates to the 510 Bays average in the capital city. Now, if slapped with a 2000 Bay fine, you best believe that some people will have to save 4~6 months worth of their full salaries to pay it all off. In the end, Baymard never jokes about its safety policies!
…
Tick-tock. Tick-tock. Seconds turned to minutes, minutes turned to hours and hours to days. Over the weekend, several people were gladdened with the emergence of cellphones while others clenched their fists, feeling their missions were getting harder and harder. However, would they still give up even now? NEVER! Don't even think about it. The group of suspicious men quickly gathered around to discuss their newest fears before the mission officially starts. Know that the emergence of cell phones came with the ability to call for backup at a flip of a click of a finger. Before, they planned to take care of the guards before any of the guards had a chance to rush towards the landlines in the buildings. But now… it was not so simple. Now, a simple 911 can raise a storm! Several people, perhaps because of agitation, were careless enough to meet in the woods in a not so hidden spot. And just when they were about to conclude on their updated plans, someone saw staging in the distance and soon had a face pale as paper. Dammit! Someone has overheard their plans! It was a boy, a very young boy of 7. "After him!!!"
Oh no! The boy's face was full of panic as he darted as fast as his little legs could move. However, it was no use, the chasers were quickly catching up to him. But when he thought all hope was lost after jumping out of the forest and onto the road, he was almost knocked over by a group of patrolling police officers in a vehicle. WHAT???! The police officers quickly got out and took out their weapons (tasers), rushing to grab the boy in a panic. There was blood all over his face, not from any care accident. They knew they should first scout the area to see what was chasing the boy, but right now, his life was at stake. "Quickly, he's unconscious! We have to take him to the hospital!" …
3 officers and 1 boy soon vanished from the scene, and those in the shadows now stepped out with grim faces. Now, it seems their original plans will have to be kept aside… at least not until they deal with this big mess they just created for themselves. Steward Jacobs frowned, hating himself for letting his guard down. If the assassin's they hired were here, perhaps they would have long discovered the boy and killed him. It's just that those assassin's were busy preparing for tomorrow's mission. It was they who were impatient and panicked, deciding to hold a meeting of their own. Well, this was just great!!!
Now, they've fucked up…. But, there is no such thing as a problem without a solution. Steward Jacobs narrowed his gaze at the disappearing police vehicles with one thought in mind – The Boy must Die!
