Chapter 606: My Mother Asked Me to Log Off and Have Dinner
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The two of them were really enjoying themselves.
To Hong Dali, this world was an unknown. He could control animals, his body could be pliant or tough as needed, and he had the Golden-armored Green-eyed Tiger as a steed. There was no place he could not go. In other words, everything was perfect!
Deca was overjoyed.
Little brother Dali looked like he had no worries and was truly enjoying himself, but he also had great abilities. He could actually control animals in this world—damn, they were Planet-level beasts. He could practically do whatever he wished in this world!
“Ah, Brother Deca.” The two of them had been playing for three or four hours. Hong Dali was having the time of his life, but he was also getting tired. “I’m getting a little tired and we have not found any Ideon ore. There’s no trace of the Chan Jitang Red Bean either. My mum is asking me to log off and eat. Brother Deca, when will you be here again?”
Deca was a little disappointed when he heard that Hong Dali was leaving. He said, “It’s no fun here by myself if you are going off. I will log off and go eat too. Oh, right,” as he spoke, he handed Hong Dali a communicator. “This is my communicator. Just press it when you come online and I will be notified.
Yes, that was convenient!
Hong Dali quickly took it. “Okay, I will log off first. Keke. See you next time, Brother Deca!”
“Okay, see you next time.”
Then, Hong Dali said something that floored Deca. “How do I log off, I forgot to find out before I came in...”
“Probably, maybe, perhaps...” Deca said cautiously, “Close your eyes and silently think that you want to log off? That’s how I log out.”
“Orh...” Hong Dali’s avatar disappeared. He was certainly fast when it came to logging out!
“Hong Dali.” After Hong Dali left, Deca rubbed his chin in thought. Then, he said excitedly, “He can even control the animals in this world, fantastic, fantastic. This ability must be worth a lot of money. It should be able to sell for two million Galaxy Dollars?”
...
After Hong Dali logged off, he opened his eyes slowly.
He took a deep breath before he opened the door to the gaming chamber and sat up.
“Dali, how does it feel to play inside?” Once they saw that Hong Dali had gotten up, everyone crowded around and asked all at the same time, “Is there something different inside? Is it different from what everyone thought?”
“Ah, there are some differences.” Hong Dali took out a Dali bean and popped it into his mouth. He chewed and said, “It actually feels pretty good inside, it’s really fun.” As he spoke, he looked at Lin Chuyin. “Chuyin, the Holographic Game Helmet is okay as it is now. It should be almost done, so no need to continue working on it anymore. Make more gaming chambers first, everyone can go in and play with me next time. It’s fantastic! Aiya, you have no idea. I rode a tiger! The fella can go all over the world!”
“Oh, okay.” Since Hong Dali said there was no need to continue working on it, Lin Chuyin naturally was not going to disagree with him. “Then I will work on the mini energy augmentation device in the future. It’s already in the final stage of development and almost finished.”
Tang Muxin asked, “Ah, is it really fun inside? What is it like?”
“Of course it’s fun. It’s very big inside.” Hong Dali gushed. “It’s about the same size as this world. I cannot see the end when I am in a forest! The mountains are fifty or sixty thousand meters high! The river is clear and refreshing!”
“That sounds fantastic!” Everyone cheered. “Haha, it’s going to be fun!”
“Yes, yes.” Hong Dali stood up and stretched. “By the way, everyone has to keep the secret when we go inside, don’t say anything. Everyone, you can go back first. Xinxin, you stay.”
“Okay.” Young Master commanded it and no one would go against him. They would all follow his instructions. “We promise not to say anything.”
Tang Muxin suddenly felt shy when she heard that Hong Dali wanted her to stay behind. The little lass fiddled with a corner of her shirt, her head lowered. She said hesitantly, “Ah, Dali, you asked for me? Is anything the matter?”
There was no one left. Could Dali be planning to do something? If he tries to kiss me, should I reject him or let him? Or should I pretend not to mind? Thinking of it, the brat Dali has never said anything about liking me. He definitely has cotton wool for brains, so hateful!
Tang Muxin’s heart was pounding. Everyone else had left, except her...
“Ah, there is something.” Hong Dali had no idea that so much had gone through Tang Muxin’s head in the time taken to take one breath. He smiled and said, “I found out something in the stimulated world just now, so I wanted to discuss it with you.”
The brat! Such a good opportunity. His brain must be made of cotton wool. Definitely!
Tang Muxin could not be sure what she was feeling, but she was a little disappointed, yet a little relieved and also curious. She hesitated for a while before asking, “Dali, what did you find? Why are you being so secretive?”
There should have been no need for Hong Dali to hide anything from the people around him. Unless he really found something huge inside?
Hong Dali pulled Tang Muxin onto the sofa beside him and whispered, “With the technology currently available in our would, I don’t think we can create this virtual world. More importantly, I met someone in the virtual world.”
“What? There is someone inside?” This time, Tang Muxin was really shocked. “The Virtual Gaming Helmet has just been developed, right? How can be there someone inside? There is only one helmet in the world!”
“I know, that’s why I asked you to stay behind and help me figure it out. Deca said that he, too, was developing a Holographic Stimulation Helmet. I don’t believe him. No matter how I look at it, something just isn’t right.” Hong Dali mumbled, “This is really strange. I’m afraid I’ll get it wrong if I try to work it out by myself, that’s why.”
“Yes, something is definitely not right.” Tang Muxin put her hand on her chin and said, “Dali, tell me first, what is it like inside?”
“Simply put, it’s a very special world.” Hong Dali started describing it to Tang Muxin. “Stones, trees, water, sky and the sun, all these are almost exactly like the ones in reality. Do you know, when I was inside, I used that person’s sword to hit a stone and the stone cracked into two pieces.” He stopped and asked with a smile, “Have you ever seen a game that has effects like this? Even the stones can be broken?”
That was definitely new. At the moment, there was no technology on earth capable of writing a program like that.
“Never.” Tang Muxin analyzed. “With our current technology, games are mostly focused on having beautiful graphics, ease of play, and things like that. It would be possible to stand on a stone. But to be able to break a rock with a sword? That’s not possible. He can’t possibly make every rock breakable, right? Also, it does not get restored after being broken.”
“That’s why.” Hong Dali shrugged. “I realized something was off, so I hung around and played a bit with that guy. The more I saw, the more I feel that that world was weird.”
“By the way, what did that person look like?” Tang Muxin asked, “I feel this person is the key!”
“Ah, the person?” Hong Dali thought about it. “His name is Deca. He has purple hair and eyes. His clothes are quite futuristic and he has a very big sword.”
“That’s all?”
“That’s all.”
“You idiot!” Angrily, Tang Muxin stomped down so hard on Hong Dali’s foot he grimaced in pain. She said, “The details of this person’s appearance are the key to figuring this out. Who can figure what he looks like if you just randomly describe him?”
Hong Dali massaged his foot desperately. “He looks almost like a normal person. Other than the eyes and hair which are of a different color, how can I remember so much? I’m not gay, why would I look at him so carefully?!”
“Assuming you are right...” Tang Muxin gave the matter some careful consideration and asked, “Oh, how do you know his name is Deca? He speaks our language?”
“Of course.” Hong Dali thought about it. “He speaks it quite fluently. Hehe.”
“Can speak our language, can speak our language.” Tang Muxin pointed at her lips and looked at the ceiling. “He can speak our language, could he be someone from the Heavenly State?”
“How is it possible? Our technology has not reached such a level yet.” Suddenly, Hong Dali’s eyes lit up. He said, “Right, right, he did not answer me when I spoke to him at first. He only answered when I spoke to him a second time. His speech is very similar to mine. Eh, do you think this is the fabled translation program? It’s super!”
“What translation program?” Tang Muxin stomped hard on Hong Dali’s foot again. “Have you been watching too many sci-fi movies? How can such a translation program exist!” Such a hateful person! His imagination was too far-fetched. He even thought of translation programs!
“Owww!” Hong Dali grabbed his leg and massaged it forcefully. As he massaged he said, “Why did you step on me! There can be no explanation other than a translation program! Also, I suspect that he may be an alien!”
“There is no such thing as aliens in this world!” Tang Muxin wanted to strangle him. “Can you stop imagining things?! Aliens that look like humans, and you even met one—how can there be so many coincidences?”
“There is no other explanation for it except that he is an alien.” Hong Dali scratched his head and said, “For example, if Deca is a Balls-ache 1 alien, and their planet is very near ours. They set up an inter-space virtual network that encompasses a very, very large area and it includes our Earth. Our Virtual Gaming Helmet, does it not connect directly to our brain waves? That would mean our brain waves get magnified and before we manage to connect to the game we created, we connect to their inter-space virtual network instead. Eh, do you think that is possible?”
