Chapter 161, exclusively published on Jinjiang Literature City, details a villager's first holographic experience (including 20...).
Inside the training room.
The three people who had been standing there stiffly suddenly took off their holographic glasses, gasped for breath, and still looked visibly shaken.
Lei Yan stammered, "What...what was that just now?"
Lu Qing's expression was horrified: "I saw a huge forest, and some kind of animal, I don't know if it was a big insect or something, was chasing me and trying to eat me!"
Lu Chen then said, "I saw a really big spider." The kind of big that he could ride right on!
Startled, he immediately used his gravity ability to float himself up.
Unexpectedly, the spider's silk wrapped him tightly in mid-air, turning him into a white ball in the blink of an eye, and then it opened its black-haired mouth and aimed it at his head!
Lu Chen was so frightened that his mind went blank, and he was forcibly ejected by the system that detected abnormal heartbeat data.
Even now, recalling what had just happened, Lu Chen still felt his heart pounding.
He almost thought he was really going to be eaten by the giant spider.
Not only Lu Chen, but Lu Qing and Lei Yan did not remove their glasses and leave the training on their own. Instead, they were forcibly removed from the training before they could remove their glasses due to excessive fright.
The three of them did not appear in the same place after entering.
Lu Qing and Lu Chenshi randomly appeared in the forest, while Lei Yan appeared by the river and happened to encounter a crocodile that was feeding. The bloody scene of the crocodile biting off half of its prey's body was too much for him to bear.
Lu Xuan gave them a brief explanation of the concept and usage of the holographic training equipment.
The three of them stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.
"They're all fake? But those trees, and that... leopard? They look so real, I could even smell the animal's unique scent wafting from them."
"So, when we enter that training mode, our bodies don't actually move at all in real life?"
"Will it hurt if I get injured inside? Will it affect my actual body?"
Lu Xuan showed them the screen recording on the control panel, and then compared it with the footage he had specially filmed in the training room.
The three people on the control panel were terrified by the animals, running or flying, but they stood still in the training room.
Even though their eyes were open and Lu Xuan was standing right in front of them the whole way, they were completely oblivious!
Lu Qing exclaimed in amazement, "That's amazing!"
Lei Yan said, "I didn't see Ah Xuan anywhere inside."
His attention was drawn to the crocodile with its mouth full of sharp teeth.
Lu Chen glanced at the beautifully patterned leopard his sister had encountered, then at the crocodile whose mouth was so big it could swallow him whole, and couldn't help but purse his lips.
Why did he have to encounter such an ugly spider?
After Lu Xuan's explanations and clarifications, the three gradually recovered.
Lu Qing's eyes lit up, and she said, "Ah Xuan, you said this training equipment can simulate all sorts of different environments, so can it simulate the ocean that you and Chenchen went to?"
Lu Xuan: "Of course."
Lei Yan's heart stirred slightly. "I'm more interested in the grasslands."
Lu Chen quickly raised his hand to pick one out as well, "I want to see if my brother discovered a large lake on a mountaintop like those in the Yunlu Mountains, is there one?"
Lu Xuan: "..."
[Hahaha, the training equipment isn't for you guys to enjoy the scenery.]
This is holographic training equipment, not holographic sightseeing equipment.
[Actually, as long as you have enough strength and minimize the risk, it's not much different from sightseeing, at least for streamers.]
Now that you mention it... it's true. However, the three members of the Lu family are still far from being strong enough. If they want to sightsee, they should improve their strength first.
Lu Xuan explained to Lu Qing and the other two, "This is training equipment. We can't just let you enjoy the scenery. If you want to appreciate the scenery, you have to defeat the ferocious beasts you encounter first."
"You've won. The beast has vanished. You can briefly admire the scenery, then continue searching for your next opponent or improving your coefficient, or you can end the training immediately."
Lu Xuan reminded him, "The danger level I set for you is already the lowest, 1. The higher the danger level, the more ferocious beasts and other dangers you will encounter, and the more challenges you will face."
Correspondingly, this allows for maximum training and improvement of one's abilities.
The three were initially disappointed, but then they thought it would make them more capable, and they felt it was a good thing.
Lu Xuan: "From now on, I will bring the training equipment to the training room during the day and bring it back at night. You can choose whether or not to train, what kind of scenario you want, and what kind of conditions you want to set."
Lu Xuan carefully explained the important points regarding the settings for gravity, air, and the five senses, which they didn't quite understand.
Finally, he specifically emphasized: "Don't choose a difficulty level above 5, you won't be able to handle it, it's best to choose a level of 3 or lower."
Fearing they might not understand the implications, I even showed them a demonstration image of mutated plants and animals on the control panel, which would be unlocked if the coefficient was 5 or higher.
Lu Qing clutched her chest, her face filled with horror, and exclaimed, "The tree... the tree is alive!!"
Lu Chen exclaimed in surprise, "That worm is huge! How come it has two heads!"
Lei Yan stared at Hua, who had swallowed a bear whole, speechless with his mouth agape.
Lu Xuan said, "Anything with a danger level of 5 or higher will definitely generate mutated plants and animals, just like my Vampire Vine." Although its level is not as high as the Vampire Vine.
The three recalled several instances where the vampire vine had displayed its power in the past...
They unanimously assured each other, "Don't worry! We absolutely won't choose number 5!"
They want to train themselves, not scare themselves to death.
They think coefficient 1 is good enough, and they won't even choose 2 until they can easily handle this level of difficulty!
Having figured out the function of the holographic device, the three were eager to try it again.
Lu Qing said, "We weren't prepared just now, but this time I definitely won't be scared into backing out."
Lei Yan and Lu Chen nodded in agreement.
Lu Xuan said, "No rush, there's a mecha tutorial for you to try first."
After saying that, he remembered that Lu Chen was still too young, and asked the viewers in the live stream, "Can a child ride a mecha?"
Of course not.
[A child's brain is not yet fully developed, and the connection between mental energy and neural networks involves neural connections. Even if the holographic device is not a real mecha, it will still have an impact.]
The minimum age for joining the Covenant is 2x0 years old. Since humans in ancient times developed faster, the standard might be lowered.
However, the minimum age is lowered to fifteen or sixteen; Lu Chen is too young.
Lu Xuan: Then there's nothing we can do.
He lowered his head and explained the situation to Lu Chen, who pouted aggrievedly, but still stood sensibly next to his brother, ready to watch with him watch his sister and brother-in-law get on that chicken armor.
However, when Lu Qing and Lei Yan prepared to start the mecha course based on Lu Xuan's reminder, a warning box appeared in front of Lu Qing. It displayed that she did not meet the piloting requirements.
Lu Qing's mental strength level did not meet the minimum standard.
Holographic devices cannot accurately determine a user's mental strength level, but the minimum level can still be measured.
Lu Qing took off her glasses, looking somewhat regretful, but quickly relaxed. She walked over to Lu Chen and watched the screen with the two brothers.
At this moment, Lei Yan was already sitting in the mecha cockpit, listening to the intelligent system introduce mecha basics with a blank expression.
The three people outside can adjust their perspective at any time, either by maintaining the same viewpoint as Lei Yan and seeing the mecha through the mirror opposite, or by watching Lei Yan's operation from the outside.
It's really not really about operation.
The idea of ancient people riding in mechas sounds like something out of a fantasy.
Lu Xuan was able to learn to walk on his first drive because his knowledge level far surpassed that of the ancients, he could easily understand professional terminology, and his use of mental power was also quite mature.
When it was Lei Yan's turn, his use of mental power was limited to storing and retrieving supplies from the space, which was too rudimentary. It took him almost fifteen minutes just to successfully connect using mental power.
Can you get the mech moving?
It can't move at all.
If you insist on moving, you'll fall flat on your face and be unable to stand up.
Live stream viewers: Pfft.
Lu Xuan: "..."
Lu Qing and Lu Chen: "..."
The siblings exchanged a glance instinctively.
They discovered that the mech was larger than they had expected, and the regret that had been suppressed quietly resurfaced.
But seeing Lei Yan/brother-in-law lying on the ground looking helpless like a turtle with its shell overturned, I suddenly felt that it was okay not to be able to get on the mecha.
Lei Yan, who had tried for a long time but still couldn't get up, had no choice but to exit the tutorial.
Taking off her glasses and turning around, she saw Lu Qing and Lu Chen, their faces flushed from trying not to laugh.
Lei Yan: "..."
Lu Xuan comforted him, "It's already very good that you were able to connect successfully on your first attempt."
Lei Yan felt somewhat comforted when he first heard the tutorial, until Lu Xuan also joined in.
Watching his opponent slowly but steadily walk forward and backward, pause for a moment and then make a kicking motion, and finally even adopt a classic fighting stance with both hands clenched into fists and knees slightly bent.
Lei Yan didn't understand what fighting style was, but he could still tell whether a move looked good or not, and whether it had momentum.
Compared to his own disheveled state just now, Lei Yan began to doubt whether Lu Xuan's words of comfort were just a perfunctory gesture.
Lu Chen was so impressed by his brother's handsomeness that he exclaimed, "Brother is so amazing!"
Lu Qing's eyes sparkled as she exclaimed, "As expected, Ah Xuan is still the most amazing!"
Lei Yan only managed to elicit suppressed laughter from his wife and brother-in-law: "..."
After that, Lu Xuan switched to training mode.
The scene of going all out against a large group of mutated plants and animals in an extreme environment with a danger level of 5 made the three people, including Lei Yan, feel excited.
A danger level of 5 is far from Lu Xuan's limit; at most, it's just a matter of stretching his muscles and bones. But for the three members of the Lu family, it was already quite shocking.
A raging inferno engulfed the entire virtual scene; artificial mini thunderstorms scorched all the bizarre and mutated plants.
With his speed ability at its peak, he instantly teleported behind the mountain-sized mutated animal and tore it in two with his bare hands.
With this kind of setup, who dares to say that this isn't going all out?
Even the audience's eyes lit up, and they showered the gifts on him like they were free.
Lei Yan couldn't help but say, "It's a waste of Ah Xuan's talents to have him holed up here with us."
With Lu Xuan's strength, he could easily make a name for himself during the chaos of the cataclysmic period. After the cataclysm ends, he might even be able to obtain a high-ranking official position or even become a king.
Lu Qing thought for a moment and said, "Ah Xuan doesn't care about village affairs unless absolutely necessary. Letting him start a business and worry about more people, and what if he encounters troublemakers and can't just deal with them? He'll have to maintain a balance like in the plays. Do you think he'll be willing?"
Lei Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Given his personality, if he really encountered someone like that, he probably wouldn't tolerate it. More likely, he would just kill everyone like he did with the people who ran the gambling den."
Lu Qing understood this as well.
It is precisely because I know this that I am even more unwilling.
She did not want the other side to commit too much unnecessary killing.
What if it hinders his future ascension to immortality?
When Lu Qing expressed her concerns, Lei Yan and Lu Chen both became serious.
That absolutely cannot be affected!
Ah Xuan/Brother is so powerful, he deserves to be among the immortals and live forever!
Lu Qing said, "If Ah Xuan really feels uncomfortable staying in the village, he will say so himself. All we need to do is support him silently from behind."
Lei Yan and Lu Chen nodded in agreement.
The viewers in the live stream found their conversation both hilarious—the streamer's supposed ascension to immortality—and comforted by the fact that he had such caring family members.
As for what it means to venture out and build a career?
Is there any place more suitable for streamers to unleash their full potential and be more challenging than Star Alliance?
It doesn't exist!
So if you want to do anything, do it in the Covenant. In the ancient times, just treat it as a vacation!
...
Lu Xuan played for about half an hour before quitting.
Lu Qing and Lei Yan, on the other hand, were having a great time and seemed ready to party all night long.
Lu Chen originally wanted to play with them, but was rejected by all three adults present.
"It's getting late, you should go to sleep."
"Children who don't go to sleep on time won't grow tall."
Lu Chen: QAQ!
...
Lu Xuan quickly returned to his room.
He wasn't having much luck today. He didn't get the daily discounted evolution fluid, and he still did single draws with diamonds and black gold, but all he got were points.
Diamonds: 31,869 points.
Black Gold: 568,635 points.
The total came to over 600,000, which seems like a lot, but in reality, we lost about 500,000.
The only consolation was that the Golden Ten-Draw yielded two fully automatic snowplows in one go.
The greenhouse is not needed, but it makes shoveling snow in the village much easier.
early morning.
The new Yunlu Village, consisting of more than fifty safe houses, is almost entirely covered by snow, with only the shapes of the houses visible.
As dawn broke, people from all the households gradually woke up and came out to move around.
As others came out yawning, ready to shovel snow with brooms or snow shovels they'd bought from the grocery store, a buzzing sound suddenly came from another direction.
The villagers turned their heads and stared wide-eyed.
"What is that?"
"Is it Lu Chen's remote-controlled toy?"
"Lu Chen's toys aren't that big! Look! The snow was swept to both sides where that strange thing passed by."
Someone with sharp eyes noticed that this snow-sweeping device came from the Lu family and said knowingly, "This must be another new thing that Lu Xuan got from the gods, specially for snow sweeping."
It can automatically sweep snow without anyone pushing it. It should be remotely controlled like drones and agricultural sprayers. That would be so convenient!
These past few days, villagers have had to shovel snow several times a day, leaving them with aches and pains. They exclaimed, "This thing makes things so much easier!"
Someone was tempted and said, "I wonder if the Lu family has any spares that we can rent."
An older villager disagreed, saying, "The village chief said that it has been snowing for more than half of this winter. How can we borrow it every day?"
Opportunities to obtain new supplies in winter are already scarce, and they still owe Lu Xuan a large sum of money for evolution fluid. To save a little effort, they deliberately incur additional energy consumption; they really don't know how to manage their money.
Someone nodded in agreement, "Exactly."
Some people think, why not save effort if we can? They don't lack the resources that consume energy.
Regardless of whether they wanted to borrow the snowplow or not, everyone's curiosity about this new machine drove them to the Lu family's house, chasing after Lu Qingwen who was operating the snowplow.
Upon learning that the Lu family possessed a valuable machine, those willing to contribute resources immediately expressed their desire to borrow it.
Because there are many people, it is still difficult to determine the order of borrowing.
Lu Qing said, "It wouldn't take long to clear the entire village with a snowplow. Instead of going from house to house, why don't we talk to the village chief and ask him to use the public resources to clear the whole village?"
The others thought it was a great idea!
In this way, even those families who are reluctant to contribute their own supplies can benefit from it.
Hearing the commotion outside, Li Tie came out from next door to check the situation.
After learning the whole story, and seeing that Lu Qing's snowplow had already cleared the area in front of several nearby houses, including theirs, he slapped his thigh and said, "Great! We'll rent that extra snowplow from the village."
With the fully automatic snowplow, the snow removal efficiency in the village has indeed been greatly improved.
A snowplow can sweep a road surface up to three meters wide in one go, and it only takes three trips to clean a street that is ten meters wide.
The elderly women in the village, who had been busy for most of the day a few days ago, are now free to do so.
Not only them, but also those on night watch can do this, saving their energy to focus on night patrol.
The doubled monthly fee doesn't need to be deducted.
Patrolling in this weather is no easy task, so extra pay is only fair.
While eating breakfast, the able-bodied men from each household learned about the snowplow and couldn't help but feel envious.
Some people even approached Lu Xuan, asking if the immortal possessed any treasures that could help them solve the problem of snow accumulating on their roofs.
Lu Xuan said, "Not yet."
The reason I didn't deny it outright is because some viewers mentioned last night that they seemed to have seen some primitive but useful snow removal methods in other ancient live streams. They were going to go back and watch the replays of other streamers' live streams, and maybe they would find something useful.
In addition, Lu Xuan searched for some keywords in the mall last night.
I discovered that, in addition to the fully automatic snowplow for roads that I won yesterday, there is indeed a device suitable for rooftops that won't damage them.
Photovoltaic panel snow removal machine.
It's a snowplow specifically designed for cleaning solar panels.
Since the solar panels won't get damaged, the greenhouse roof will naturally be fine too.
The purchase privileges haven't been unlocked yet, and I've never seen it in the daily discounts. I can only hope to get it from blind boxes.
There should be an opportunity to withdraw silver or gold, but it's uncertain when.
Hopefully, they won't wait until the extreme cold season is over before pulling it out; that would be ridiculous.
The young adults were quite disappointed when they received a negative answer.
The thought of having to shovel snow again today sends chills down my spine.
Lu Xuan said, "We don't have snowplows for now, but we have something new for you to try out today."
The eyelids of the young men who gathered in the training room after dinner twitched simultaneously.
What to experience?
Do you need to come up with new ways to beat someone up?
Lu Xuan first set up the holographic equipment he had brought, opened the environment selection page, and gestured to them, "Each of you choose a scene."
Zhang Chengming and the others looked at the various natural landscapes appearing on the virtual screen in front of them with puzzled expressions.
"What are you doing? No training today, are you going to enjoy the scenery instead?"
Lu Xuan did not give a direct answer, but repeated his previous statement: "Choose."
The group exchanged glances and decided to choose.
They didn't know why they chose the scenery; they simply chose the place they liked the most and wanted to see for themselves.
Forests, rainforests, oceans, and grasslands are popular choices, with grasslands further divided into lush green grasslands and grasslands similar to the African savanna.
Besides appreciating the equally beautiful scenery, those who chose the African savanna also learned about amazing animals there, such as giraffes with necks longer than their lives, elephants with ears bigger than ten-year-old children, and elephants with exceptionally long noses, when they secretly audited science classes.
Although I'm not sure if I'll be able to meet him, I'll make the choice first.
Swamps, deserts, and other places that look lifeless are generally not popular choices.
A small number of people did choose the volcano.
Some people were initially drawn to the magnificent polar glaciers and considered choosing the destination, but the thought of the chaotic snow removal efforts over the past two days, with snow falling heavily and everything covered in white, made them feel physically uncomfortable and they avoided it.
After everyone had made their selections, Lu Xuan took out ten holographic glasses and gave them to those who had chosen the same scene, saying, "Put the glasses on."
Li Jing, Wu Yang, and ten others put on their glasses and looked at each other, puzzled.
Lu Xuan quickly tapped a few times on the control panel, selecting a danger level of 1, and maintaining the air and gravity as standard in the current plane.
The only thing that needs adjustment is the five senses. Lu Xuan only set the realism to 30% to avoid scaring people too much.
This was also the proportion he gave to his family yesterday.
Surely a group of grown men can't be worse than Lu Qing and Lu Chen, right?
Lu Xuan moved too quickly, and the others didn't see what he was doing clearly. However, the ten people wearing glasses saw the setting reminder that appeared quickly on their glasses.
Before they could even read what was written on it, the view in front of the ten people wearing glasses changed instantly.
Meanwhile, others also saw the same view on their control panels.
This time, Lu Xuan deliberately adjusted his field of vision, so what the others saw was the person who suddenly appeared on the screen.
When Zhang Chengming and the others saw Li Jing and Wu Yang's figures appearing one after another on the ten small screens, they exclaimed in surprise, "How did they get in here?"
"That's not right." Chen Rong pointed to the people standing in the same spot. "They're still standing there!"
"What's going on? Are they inside or outside?"
The young adults, who didn't understand what holography was, were completely bewildered.
Lu Xuan said, "It's not a real trip inside. You can think of it as an illusion, a fairly realistic one. The people inside can touch everything they see, but those things are all fake and don't exist."
Everyone stared wide-eyed. How could something that doesn't exist be encountered?
I still don't understand!
but……
Their inability to understand doesn't stop them from envying those who are already curiously touching and looking around.
Thinking that they would have the same experience later, those who hadn't had their turn yet couldn't help but show anticipation.
Those who were already in holographic mode were naturally even more excited.
They were actually a little flustered when they went in, thinking they had encountered something strange. They only calmed down when Lu Xuan's voice rang in their ears, and then excitedly prepared to take a look around the area.
Before they could take two steps, a cold-looking beast appeared before them. These beasts included wolves, wild boars, insects, and even—bears!
Everyone: !!!
Big bug!
Bear!
They hadn't encountered this before, even when they were in the Yunlu Mountains!
Lu Xuan: That's because I scared them all away beforehand with my superpowers.
Liu Chun and Wei Dayong, who happened to run into these two big guys, turned pale on the spot.
They instinctively tried to pull out crossbows from their spatial storage, only to find that they didn't have any spatial rings on them.
The two of them: "!!!"
It’s over!
These two people are really unlucky.
One has auxiliary superpowers, while the other has not awakened any superpowers at all. They usually arm themselves with bows and crossbows when hunting, and can be said to be among the weakest members of the hunting team in terms of combat strength.
Unfortunately, they encountered the two most formidable beasts.
The two stood frozen in place for a few seconds, then turned and ran, shouting uncontrollably.
"Help, help me—!"
"Lu Xuan, help me—!"
After running for about ten meters, Liu Chun tripped over something and fell to the ground. As he instinctively turned around, the giant worm behind him pounced on him and slammed its bloody maw down on his head.
Upon smelling the strong, fishy stench emanating from the giant insect's mouth at point-blank range, Liu Chun's pupils contracted violently, and he let out the most piercing scream of his life: "Ah—!"
At the same time, Lu Xuan quickly adjusted his perspective to share Liu Chun's view.
The young men who were watching intently in the training room were caught off guard when they saw the tiger's mouth appear on the big screen, and they screamed in unison: "Ah—!"
[Hahahaha—]
[The streamer is so mean!]
[Haha, I love watching this! Well done, streamer!]
Liu Chun naturally became the first person to be forcibly removed.
When Lu Xuan helped him take off his glasses, he subconsciously continued to scream, only to realize that he was still in the training room and there was no giant worm in front of him that was about to devour him alive, so the screaming stopped abruptly.
After realizing they had overreacted, Zhang Chengming and the others quickly coughed.
Greatly frightened, Liu Chun couldn't help but ask, "What exactly happened? That huge insect just now—"
Lu Xuan interrupted him: "Don't rush, I'll explain it to you all together after everyone else comes out."
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Wei Dayong's screen went black.
Immediately after them came Li Jing, Wu Yang, and others, less than a minute apart.
Those who came out all had the same look of lingering fear on their faces, clearly terrified by their near-death experiences of being bitten, run over, or even having their hearts ripped out.
Lu Xuan didn't provoke them further, but turned to the others, whispering like a demon, "It's your turn."
Zhang Chengming and others: "!!!"
Their scalps tingled instantly. Recalling the experiences of others they had seen on the control panel, they instinctively backed away.
Although Li Jing and the other ten from Wuyang still didn't quite understand what had just happened, they instinctively went over and surrounded the people who were trying to run away.
"What are you offering to back out of? We've already experienced it all, and you still want to run away?!"
"Sharing happiness and hardship!"
Without waiting, they stuffed—no, they put the glasses directly on their faces.
The second group saw Lu Xuan tapping on the control panel again, and this time they saw it: those suddenly appearing beasts were ones he had deliberately chosen!
These people looked at each other through the transparent frames, their expressions as tragic as if they were about to go to war.
You chose this situation, so you have to accept it, even if you have to kneel!
On the bright side, dying amidst a favorite landscape is, in a way, a fitting end.
Compared to the first group, they were somewhat prepared. Once inside, they immediately put into practice the cleverness they had displayed in avoiding the vampire vines over the past two days, and some even tried to use their superpowers to fight back.
However, it was of no use.
They fought back while fleeing, but their attacks were chaotic and inaccurate, far less efficient than when a hunting team would gang up on their prey.
They persisted for a long time overall, but in the end, they were all forced to escape amidst the fear of being devoured by beasts.
Li Tuo, perhaps because of his young age and courage, lasted longer, but he managed to escape only after most of his body was swallowed by the forest crocodile. It's hard to say whether his persistence was justified.
I hope he won't have nightmares tonight.
The only one who performed well was Lei Yan, who already had half a night's worth of experience.
He was the only one who used his lightning-based superpower to kill the wolf that attacked him, successfully completing his first challenge.
The others guessed that he must have received special treatment from Lu Xuan, so they weren't surprised.
Then the third and fourth batches followed.
Among them are many who harbor wishful thinking.
For example, those who choose the ocean might think, "The ocean is so beautiful, what danger could there be?"
As soon as they entered, they encountered sharks, and another person was knocked unconscious by a huge wave.
The funniest thing is that someone who can't swim actually chose the ocean scene.
The audience was confused.
No, why would you go to the sea if you can't swim?
Did you think they would provide you with a boat?
What a pipe dream!
Of course, other scenarios are not safe either.
The green meadow looks peaceful, but wouldn't it be thrilling to step inside and be confronted by a crazed bison? It'll knock your internal organs out of place on the spot.
The African savanna isn't just home to giraffes and elephants; it also has lions, leopards, hyenas, buffalo, and rhinoceroses—any one of which could give them a run for their money.
Those who choose volcanoes are also unlucky.
It appeared right on the mountainside of an erupting volcano, and before it could do anything, it was hit squarely by a piece of lava falling from the sky.
As I came out, I instinctively shouted, "It's so hot! It's so hot!"
The viewers in the live stream were laughing so hard they could hardly stand it.
[Is this holographic training? It's clearly just 108 ways for the young and strong of Yunlu Village to die.]
After everyone had had their turn, Lu Xuan explained the holographic device to them.
After several rounds of demonstrations, even without him saying it, they roughly understood how to use it.
It's amazing that they can simulate such a realistic environment and create ferocious beasts that are completely indistinguishable from real ones, but...
The crowd was somewhat numb from the shock and didn't know how to react.
Lu Xuan thought they would be as eager as Lu Qing and Lei Yan to try again and avenge their defeat, but he found that the group of grown men looked dazed and had been thoroughly humiliated.
Or perhaps it's more accurate to say they were terrified?
Lu Xuan: "..." Is it really that serious?
Audience: Try watching a group of people get bitten to death in one go and see if you'll be scared silly... Oh, you won't!
Lu Xuan: ...
Okay.
Give them some time to adjust.
I'll give the mecha tutorial a try and see how many people meet the mental strength requirement.
However, having learned from the experience of the previous simulation training, everyone is very vigilant.
Even the usually composed Wu Yang asked warily, "Are we going to be chased by wild beasts again?"
Lu Xuan said, "No, this time it's just to test whether you're qualified to pilot a mecha."
The process of testing mech pilot qualifications is indeed very safe. Those whose mental strength is not up to standard will be given an immediate reminder, and the test is completed in no more than five breaths.
The test results showed that fewer than ten people's mental strength reached the standard level.
To Lu Xuan's surprise, several of them had not awakened any special abilities, such as Wei Dayong, Ye Lin, and Ge Yuan.
Live stream viewer: [What's so surprising about that? Mental strength level and having superpowers are two completely different things.]
Lu Xuan: "..." That seems to make sense.
However, mastering a more advanced skill is always a good thing for Wei Dayong and others, even though they don't know if they will have the opportunity to use it in the future.
As for those who possess both superpowers and have reached the required level of mental strength, there is Lei Yan, who was confirmed yesterday, as well as Wu Yang, Liu Chun, Li Tuo, Chen Rong, and others.
Zhang Chengming, Li Jing, and Xiong Mao were all unfortunately not selected.
The first two are relatively open-minded. Their wind-type abilities are already quite powerful in combat, and Li Jing has always preferred using his abilities to farm rather than fight, so he doesn't have any particular ambitions.
Only Xiong Mao, even though he didn't understand the power of the mecha, was still furious and upset because of the fact that "others can do it but I can't," experiencing the same grief and indignation he felt when his son didn't awaken his superpowers.
Lu Xuan said, "Alright, that's enough for today. Those who can get on the mechs tomorrow can choose to practice operating them, but I can't guarantee that you'll have the chance to pilot a real mech after you've practiced enough."
"As for the others..." Lu Xuan looked at the young men who couldn't get into the mecha: "Continue with the simulation training. I can tell you in advance that the intensity will be higher than today."
Everyone: "!!!" They couldn't even handle one ferocious beast, let alone something higher?
Lu Xuan thought to himself, "What are ferocious beasts? Tomorrow I'll add weather changes and gravity to your situation, and even give you an extra oxygen deficiency status. The best is yet to come."
