Chapter 115 The Mechanical Era: I'll teach you. Pull back the covers and crawl out from the foot of the bed...
[Hilarious! Fans can't outmaneuver the celebrities themselves.]
[I hope the update is fast. I don't want to live a life where my screen is black for 21 hours out of 24. I just want to see my wife more. Is that too much to ask?!]
Based on the experience of the previous ten days, Shen Su may not be able to proceed "quickly."
Before the chat had even finished discussing, Shi Yu and Shen Su's live stream chat lit up again—
【?????】
[Just wondering, how long has it been? Ten minutes?]
No, five minutes...right?
Ah, I don't know what to say...
【Shen Su, we wanted you to hurry, but not this fast.】
This is a misunderstanding about Shen Su.
Not only did she misunderstand him for five minutes, but she also misunderstood that he and Shi Yu were having an affair.
They really weren't being lewd this time.
It's being transmitted.
As for why the live stream couldn't show the transmission process, it's possible that the transmission was beyond the understanding of the viewers, or it could simply be that the system didn't want the viewers to see it.
Shi Yu fell asleep nestled in Shen Su's arms during the teleportation.
Shen Su carried him into the room, closed the door, turned on the light, and then gently placed him on the large bed where they had spent ten days together. He covered him with a blanket and tucked the corners of the blanket in. Shi Yu did not wake up throughout the entire process.
Soft hair fell onto the snow-white pillow, making his skin appear even whiter. Stray hairs on his forehead slightly obscured his well-shaped eyebrows. His eyelids were gently closed, and his dark eyelashes cast a small fan-shaped shadow under his eyes.
I don't know if it's because he's been sleeping more lately or being kissed more, but his lips seem to be a bit redder than usual.
[The environment has changed, so they were teleporting just now?]
[I knew it! How could a five-minute sleep be possible?!]
[A big bed, hehe, am I sleeping in here waiting for my wife to wake up?]
[What are you waiting for? Can't you wake someone up? I'll teach you: pull back the covers, crawl under the covers from the foot of the bed... you don't need me to teach you the rest.]
...
The live stream was incredibly fast.
Shen Su sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the person on the bed, his face expressionless.
The voice he heard before entering the dungeon echoed in his mind:
"His physique is different from other players; ordinary humans cannot survive for long periods of time in higher-dimensional worlds."
"At first he will feel tired, followed by drowsiness, and gradually his internal organs will begin to fail, but he will not know it because his pain sensation is blocked."
“His appearance will not change at all, and his complexion will even remain rosy, but you know he is gradually heading towards death.”
You only have one month.
...
Shen Su gently touched Shi Yu's eyebrows and eyes with his fingers while she was asleep, then got up and left the bedroom, heading straight for the basement.
After passing through a long, dark corridor, Chen Su arrived at the last room.
There are many rooms here, but only this room has a heavy, black iron door that allows no light to pass through. The door lock requires both fingerprint and iris verification to open, and only Shen Su can enter this island.
The iron door opened silently inwards. The light inside was brighter than in the corridor but dimmer than in a normal room. In the center of the room was a rectangular transparent glass chamber that glowed with a faint blue light. Various tubes were connected to the glass chamber, and the other end of the tubes was connected to instruments and displays.
The glass capsule was intelligent. It sensed someone approaching, and the door opened automatically. Chen Su took off his shirt and lay down inside. Restraint straps automatically extended to bind his limbs and waist. Several tubes inside the capsule were also inserted into the blood vessels in his arms. Several lines of text appeared on the monitor at the head of the capsule.
[Enhanced Mode: Timed.]
[Enhancement Time: 75 min]
[Enhancement Value: 2%~6%]
[Enhancement begins.]
Shen Su lay in the transparent glass chamber with his eyes closed. As the instruments began to operate, red blood was drawn out and blue liquid was injected. Shen Su frowned in pain, sweat began to seep from his forehead, and his face and lips gradually turned white.
After several cycles, large drops of sweat streamed down his forehead, and veins bulged on his forehead and arms. He struggled violently, but the restraints held him firmly in place. No matter how much pain he was in, the machine would not stop working until the countdown ended.
The instrument stopped working, the hatch opened, and Shen Su sat out of the cabin. He was soaked in sweat, and his lips and face were as white as paper. He put on a bathrobe and looked at the instrument.
[Enhancement complete.]
[This enhancement: 2%]
[Enhancement Progress: 68%]
Shen Su frowned.
At first, each enhancement could reach the maximum value of 6%, but as the total enhancement strength increased, the value of each enhancement became lower and lower.
The voice's words echoed in my ears again—
"The Alliance will have a group of elite soldiers, but they cannot fight against robots head-on. Even if they train for another hundred years, they will not be able to fight against them. At most, they can only play a supporting role."
"The body I've given you is neither a robot nor a simple human, but a synthetic being. However, it's not an ordinary synthetic being either. You are the only synthetic being in this world whose combat power reaches S-rank."
"Of course, everyone except yourself thinks you are an ordinary human being."
"Therefore, in this world, only you can stand against the robot leader."
"—Strengthen 100% of yourself."
The viewers in the live stream didn't know what Shen Su was thinking; they could only see his actions, including him lying back down in the glass capsule.
Although the instrument was intelligent, it had no feelings. No matter how much pain and discomfort Chen Su was in, it repeated the process again.
Bullet comments—
[This is... enhancement? Ordinary people can't be enhanced, right? Could there be something else going on with Shen Su's identity?!]
[I suddenly understand the necessity of the character Shen Su's existence. Let me guess: if he were upgraded to 100%, he could go head-to-head with the boss!]
[The plot is getting exciting!]
[But the enhancement process seemed to be very painful for Su Dongpo. He was having blood drawn through tubes and receiving strange blue liquid injections. And he had already enhanced to 68%, which means he had experienced this kind of pain many times without our knowledge!]
The movies we've watched tell us that becoming a hero capable of defeating the ultimate boss always requires enduring pain that ordinary people cannot bear.
After the reinforcement was completed, he weakly crawled out of the glass capsule. He first took a shower in the bathroom in the next room before slowly returning to the ground.
As he reached the corner of the stairs, he heard Shi Yu and the patrolling guards say, "Young Master has gone to handle some matters... What matters? I don't know either. It's Young Master's private matter, and we can't ask..."
Shen Su took a step back, removed his hand from the wall, straightened his collar, buttoned up his shirt one button at a time, and straightened his posture.
After thinking for two seconds, he opened his personal panel and clicked a few times. When he walked out of the stairwell again, he was full of energy.
The guard's face lit up with joy: "Young Master is back!"
Shi Yu followed the guard's gaze.
Seeing Shen Su unharmed before him, Shi Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He took two steps forward, smiled at Shen Su, and said, "I was a little worried when I woke up and didn't see you..."
In reality, Shi Yu had a nightmare.
He dreamt that they cleared the Mechanical Era instance, and the teleportation portal appeared in front of them. He was about to step in when he turned around but Shen Su was nowhere to be seen. Then he watched helplessly as Shen Su was gradually assimilated into the instance NPC and remained in the instance forever.
That's why he panicked so much when he woke up and couldn't see Shen Su.
Before he could finish speaking, Shi Yu was lifted up by Chen Su. Shi Yu exclaimed in surprise, and then felt a warmth on his ear as Chen Su whispered in his ear, "Next time, no matter how worried you are, remember to wear shoes."
Shi Yu noticed that her two feet, which were dangling in the air, were indeed not wearing slippers...
He lowered his eyelids, and his ears were a little red.
Therefore, he did not notice that although Shen Su's tone was as unserious as usual, there was no relaxed feeling on his face.
Bullet comments—
I slowly typed out a "?".
Where did the person who was just now staggering along, needing to hold onto the wall to slowly climb the stairs go?
[Sigh, after all, I can't appear "weak" in front of my wife, lol.jpg]
He even manually adjusted his stats just now to make his complexion look less terrible!
Ah, a man who strives for excellence his entire life.
