Chapter 66
Pei Zhao woke up in fear. It was dark in front of him. The blackout curtains in the living room were drawn by someone. Only a ray of light came from the entrance.
Sudi was sitting on it and browsing the web.
Seeing Pei Zhao wake up, Sudi put down the computer and stood up: "Awake?"
Pei Zhao held the ice box in one hand, and it hurt because he was so nervous in his dream that he used too much force. The other hand was clenched into a fist, and when it was opened, it was covered in sweat.
Pei Zhao said: "I..."
Sudi threw a bag in front of Pei Zhao and interrupted him: "Are you having a nightmare?"
Pei Zhao nodded blankly.
"Have I slept for a long time?"
Sudi glanced at the time on his phone: "Not bad, twelve hours, it's exactly twelve o'clock now."
I slept for so long. Pei Zhao was distracted.
"Why are you sleeping here?"
Pei Zhao had just woken up, and his voice was a little sticky: "I am here to accompany you."
Sudi was silent. Pei Zhao looked up at him and seemed to be in good spirits. "I slept for a long time."
After being in the other world for so long, and having eaten nothing after coming back and having slept for such a long time, Pei Zhao really felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach.
Pei Zhao rubbed his stomach and wanted to get up to find something to eat, then he saw Sudi slowly opening the bag, which contained some bread snacks, instant fried rice or something.
Pei Zhao was stunned.
"I'm not as good as Zhou Yuli in taking care of people, so I may not be able to make you feel comfortable. Just eat a little. When we bring them back, everything will be fine."
Pei Zhao blinked and didn't move for a long time. No one knew what he was thinking. After a long time, Pei Zhao stretched out a hand, picked up a bag of bread, tore it open, and took a bite.
Chew and swallow mechanically.
"It's delicious." Pei Zhao looked at Sudi with a sincere expression, "It's delicious, Sudi, thank you."
Su Di looked at Pei Zhao's forced smile and felt mixed emotions.
“…Eat more.”
It was hard to explain why the atmosphere made Sudi feel depressed. He hurriedly said this and turned into the bedroom.
He didn't dare to face Pei Zhao like this. To be honest, Sudi didn't think he was as calm and composed as he pretended to be. The thought that they were going to the main world, and there was even a good chance that they would succeed and find the main engine, so that he could revive the little golden star.
Sudi was so excited that he almost jumped up.
But he didn't dare to think about it too much. He was afraid that his hopes would be dashed and that he would end up with nothing.
This is also the reason why Sudi is afraid to face Pei Zhao.
Perhaps it was because he was a newborn calf that was not afraid of a tiger, Pei Zhao was too confident that this thing would succeed.
But only Sudi knew that even if only one percent of the people in the main world were in control, their chances of success would be slim to none.
…
It was not until two in the morning that the two finally got down to business.
Pei Zhao changed into the clothes that Sudi prepared. They were camouflage and had strong protective gear inside. Pei Zhao didn't understand why, so he just asked, "Is it really that exaggerated?"
"It's no exaggeration at all. If time wasn't limited, I would even want to get a top-grade bulletproof vest."
Sudi took out two more watches. Pei Zhao took a look but couldn't tell the brand. The dial was not the common straight one on the market, but a curved shape like the wristband.
After Pei Zhao put it on, he heard Sudi teaching him how to use it.
"Press here," Sudi pressed a protruding button below, and a portrait appeared on the interface perpendicular to the screen.
"So advanced!" Pei Zhao exclaimed, "Is this the technology you have?"
"I guess so." How should I put it? It was invented by his friend, so it should be considered as the technology of their place.
Sudi continued, "This device currently only allows the two of us to communicate through a wireless magnetic field. In other words, as long as there is a magnetic field, we can dial through. If no one else joins, pressing this button will automatically default to the other party answering the call."
Pei Zhao looked at it in amazement: "I know."
Sudi flipped another button: "This is relatively special, don't use it under normal circumstances."
"What is this for?"
"Special energy supply." Sudi sighed, "In fact, the characteristic of this watch is to absorb the host's body's supernatural energy. Part of it is used for daily communication functions, and the other part is used for storage. It is equivalent to a power bank. This is the power bank's power button. If you feel that the energy in your body is running out, or you have suffered a very serious injury and feel like you are dying, you can directly press this button and you will gain energy for a short time."
Seeing that Pei Zhao was listening intently and had obviously taken it in, Sudi sighed and raised his voice to emphasize, "But this is the last energy in your body, Pei Zhao, if it is not a life-saving situation, you must not use it."
"I understand." Pei Zhao agreed with his eyes wide open.
He agreed quite quickly.
Sudi thought silently in his heart.
"There is another button. It stores some of my energy and can temporarily pause time, but it is very weak and consumable. Once it is used up, it will be gone." Sudi almost wanted to grab Pei Zhao's ears and emphasize, "Don't use it casually! These two places are reserved for you to save your life."
Pei Zhao nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
Sudi glanced at him, then took out a few pieces of protective gear and handed them to Pei Zhao, asking him to put them on. Finally, Sudi took out a gun from his bag.
"Gun!" Pei Zhao exclaimed, "Is this something we can use?"
"Yes, that's right. Only we can use it. It contains some kind of laser energy, not from your world." Sudi looked around and finally found a bottle of juice that Pei Zhao had just drunk from the trash can. He pointed the gun at it.
There was only a "hiss" sound, and an almost invisible blue light flashed and shot towards the juice bottle. The juice bottle was not knocked away, nor did it break, but - disappeared.
"this?"
"It's just a simple transmission tool, but the transmission location is not this world." Sudi sighed.
Sudi's friend, who was busy in the laboratory of Sudi's original world, glanced at the empty juice bottle that appeared on the conveyor platform beside him and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, turn on the computer.
Yu (Host): Is this filled with the space soil you brought me?
…
All set, ready to go.
Pei Zhao carefully placed Isaac's puppet in the container on the first floor and locked it.
"I'm sorry Isaac, but please wait here for a moment. I have something very important that I must do first."
Isaac the puppet had no way to answer, so Pei Zhao took it as his acquiescence, stood up and said to Sudi, "Okay, let's go."
Sudi had a complicated expression, "You... usually talk to Zhou Yuli like this?"
Pei Zhao looked confused: "Of course not, Zhou Yuli... is different."
As soon as he finished speaking, a light blue light lit up around him, and a cool feeling that was completely different from the one he had transmitted suddenly filled his whole body. Just as Pei Zhao was feeling surprised, the scene in front of him suddenly changed, and when it became clear again, it was a completely different scene.
Unlike the main world he imagined, the people here did not have strange horns, and except for their different clothes and appearance, they looked exactly the same as them.
They were all wearing gray uniforms with blue edges, which covered them tightly from neck to toe.
Before Pei Zhao could react, he was pulled away by Sudi.
"Why are you standing there like an idiot? Are you afraid of being discovered?" Sudi scolded.
Who told you to teleport to such a conspicuous location? Even if you are discovered, it will be your fault.
Pei Zhao thought silently in his heart.
Sudi led him around in many ways and finally found an empty public toilet. Pei Zhao leaned in to take a look and found that the toilet was quite similar to the one they had back then, except that there was a machine outside each cubicle, and no one knew what it was used for.
Sudi opened his backpack, took out a bunch of wrinkled clothes, and handed them to Pei Zhao: "Go change into this."
Pei Zhao stared at the group with wide eyes in surprise and said, "When did you carry a bag?"
Sudi rolled his eyes arrogantly and waved his hand, saying, "Don't ask. If you ask, it's magic."
The two of them each found a corner and changed into their clothes, which turned out to be surprisingly suitable. Before putting it on, Pei Zhao felt that it was so big in his hand, it would definitely be too small when he wore it.
When Pei Zhao changed his clothes and came out, Su Di was already at the sink, fiddling with his high-end hairstyle, making it look old-fashioned and ordinary.
At first glance, they look like the young masters who went abroad to study during the Republic of China.
Sudi explained: "The clothes in the main world will automatically adapt to the body shape, there is no such thing as size. Come over here, I will change your hairstyle so that you won't be seen by those managers."
Pei Zhao stood in front of the mirror obediently, letting Sudi fiddle with it, and asked, "Why can't the managers see it?"
Sudi said, "Of course it doesn't matter to ordinary people, but we are puppeteers and are registered in the main world. If we meet an administrator with a good memory, he may recognize our faces."
Pei Zhao still had a vague concept of the main world. While it would take some time to do his hair, Pei Zhao simply asked Sudi to answer his questions.
"Why is our information recorded in the main world?"
"The Main World is equivalent to the central system of the entire universe. It is the most advanced place in the current civilization. The Main World is located in the middle of all worlds and is directly connected to the rest of the world. Some people have said that the creation of other worlds is artificially created by the Main World. Our existence just proves this point."
Pei Zhao didn't know who the "someone" Sudi was talking about was. Under Sudi's skillful hands, Pei Zhao's temperament in the mirror was completely different from before.
"Sudi, it's a shame not to be a hairdresser."
Sudi put away his tools and brushed his hair proudly: "I'm a puppeteer, much more advanced than a hairstylist, okay?"

After the transformation was completed, Sudi stuffed the bag into his clothes - fortunately, this highly intelligent clothing had a built-in storage function. Sudi also told Pei Zhao about some of the habits of the people in the main world: "The people here have a strong sense of self-awareness and boundaries. If it is not necessary, do not ask them for help. If it is necessary, it is useless to ask them for help."
Pei Zhao thought, what’s the difference between this and nonsense? Doesn't that mean don't talk to them?
Unexpectedly, Sudi shook his head and said, "But apart from these two things, you can find ways to get closer to them."
