A glitch during a system upgrade at a certain game boosting studio accidentally grants them the "Otherworld Boosting System." As long as they log into the system, the studio members will be...
"What are you doing?" Xiao He saw his movements in the mirror and couldn't help but feel curious.
“On the way here, I saw a coded message left by the old dean. I think we can take this opportunity tonight to look for clues about him,” Wang Xuefeng answered without any hesitation.
"Oh?" Xiao He's eyes lit up: "Where did you see it?"
"It's a very long and remote narrow path, and if nothing unexpected happens, it should lead to a place like a dungeon."
"The dungeon?" Xiao He realized the implication in his words: "Could it be that the old dean has already been captured?"
“Very likely, because there hasn’t been any new information in that diary for a long time,” Wang Xuefeng explained. “Xiao Xing has long suspected that the old dean has had an accident, but unfortunately he has no way to come here to investigate.”
"Do you have a computer?" Xiao He suddenly asked.
"Yes." Wang Xuefeng nodded.
"Could I borrow it for a bit?" Xiao He stood up and took out the robot Beibei from his pocket: "I can connect to it and control it to do things."
"Of course." Without saying a word, Wang Xuefeng took out two "laptops" and placed them on the table.
Xiao He took one of the robots, skillfully plugged in various accessories, and finally connected it to the robot control center.
Wang Xuefeng, who was standing nearby, was equally quick and connected to his reconnaissance aircraft as well.
The two sat down at the table and simultaneously put on their headsets.
"Beep beep..."
"Beep beep..."
The reconnaissance plane on the ground quickly transformed into the shape of a mechanical spider, with eight long legs extending one by one, each growing a sharp spike and barb.
The robot Beibei didn't undergo many changes; it simply unfolded its wings.
The two men's left hands were rapidly typing on the keyboard, while their right hands held the mouse to control the direction.
"How is it?" Wang Xuefeng asked.
Xiao He nodded: "It's alright, I can adapt."
"Set off?"
"Um!"
"Come on to me."
"Um?"
"This makes it easier to move around."
Are you sure?
Xiao He suddenly developed uneven eyes and looked at Wang Xuefeng beside him with a sidelong glance.
The latter was taken aback until he saw her lift one foot, as if preparing to step onto him.
"Hey, hey—no!"
"What I mean is, your robot can sit on my reconnaissance plane!" Wang Xuefeng immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
"Oh, then why don't you explain more clearly?" Xiao He calmly withdrew his foot and sat back down properly in his seat.
Then he snapped his fingers: "GOGOGO!"
Wang Xuefeng gave a wry smile, and as soon as the robot Beibei climbed onto the back of the reconnaissance aircraft, he immediately pressed the start button...
-
The palace was very quiet at night.
There was no one on the wide stone-paved road, only some mottled ancient walls along the roadside.
There was no light in the houses along the way, as if the people inside had gone to rest.
“It’s past 2 a.m. now, there should only be some people on night duty,” Xiao He said directly to Wang Xuefeng beside him.
The latter nodded: "The palace's defenses are not strong, probably because no one comes here usually."
The two of them chatted freely in front of the computer, just like when they were in the studio together, without feeling any external pressure.
Wang Xuefeng's reconnaissance aircraft has a color-changing function, and in addition, it is also fully equipped with other functions.
After all, this is Yang Xing's "new work" in the future.
Xiao He naturally had no idea; she never inquired about when or what Yang Xing had made for whom.
Therefore, even if Wang Xuefeng brazenly presented her with "high-tech products" from the future, it would not arouse the slightest doubt in her heart.
At this time, Xiao He only had a computer, but no sensors, so he could not control the robot from a first-person perspective.
For her, the current operating mode is no different from playing a game.
Wang Xuefeng skillfully controlled the reconnaissance aircraft, carrying Xiao He's robot Beibei, and stealthily slipped out of the palace at an extremely fast speed.
"In which direction did you see the code today?" Xiao He didn't need to control the robot for the time being, so he kept moving the mouse to survey the robot's surroundings.
"Due north," Wang Xuefeng replied.
"Should we open the map first?" Xiao He thought, just to be on the safe side.
Wang Xuefeng shook his head slightly: "It's alright. The reconnaissance plane has a wide scanning range. We can just scan as we advance."
"That's so convenient!" Xiao He was overjoyed.
"Do you see that pyramid over there?" Wang Xuefeng marked it on the map.
Xiao He looked in the direction of the mark and subconsciously asked, "Is that the imperial tomb? The place where Queen Gulibo is buried?"
"That's what the old dean wrote in his diary, but that's where the trail ends," Wang Xuefeng sighed softly.
“But this pyramid looks very new to me! It doesn’t look like something from history at all.” Xiao He became more and more puzzled as he looked at it.
Wang Xuefeng paused for a moment: "Because she moved the grave."
"Moving the grave?" Xiao He blinked. "Was it done by that new queen, Guliser?"
“No.” Wang Xuefeng shook his head slightly: “Gulibo moved it himself.”
"What?!" Xiao He was immediately incredulous, even thinking he was joking.
She was about to say, "Isn't Queen Gulipo already dead?" But then she thought again, "There don't seem to be many living things on this continent."
If a bunch of half-dead monsters can roam freely outside, there's no reason why Queen Gribo, at the peak of her power, can't too.
"Uh, does that mean... Gulibo might also be wandering around outside?" Xiao He suddenly had a strange feeling.
