Although it was a virtual world and the pain level was adjusted to 60%, Xia Yixin still didn't dare to underestimate it. The feeling that "something was wrong" was getting stronger and stronger. While dodging the predator's attacks, she tried to find a place to hide, and was scratched by the predator several times.
The pain felt far more real than hers.
She couldn't help but wonder, was this really 60% pain?
And the strangest thing is that she shouldn't be here!
Six hours ago, she received the "Black Yan" system module as promised. In addition to breakfast, Wang Cheng, who delivered the package, also brought Lu Yuan's instructions.
Before starting the live stream, Lu Yuan was at RSM headquarters to ensure that today's plan would go perfectly, since the core terminal of the combat system was located at RSM headquarters.
"Madam, I will be waiting for you in the lounge of the second module competition arena in an hour. I will solve any problems you may have there. The first game today will start at noon."
The second module provides a rest area for participants, which is equivalent to a pre-battle lounge. It has no size limit and the environment can be adjusted by the participants themselves. As long as you don't click "accept invitation", you can stay in there indefinitely.
Xia Yixin knew that Lu Yuan would probably be outside "giving guidance" all day, so she nodded.
Unexpectedly, before Wang Cheng left, a bowl of hot congee with preserved egg and lean pork and four fist-sized steamed buns appeared out of thin air on the table.
Seeing her surprised expression, Wang Cheng respectfully explained, "This is what the Commander-in-Chief ordered. You have an hour to rest, Madam Commander. We'll meet in the combat system."
Wang Cheng left, and the room was filled with the aroma of porridge and steamed buns.
V, who had been silent for the time being because of Wang Cheng, spoke in a mechanical male voice, "Master, he is trying to curry favor."
Xia Yixin felt an inexplicable sense of unease when an AI system said such a thing.
"I know, but it can't be poisonous, can it?"
Xia Yixin had no choice; she was at the General's residence and couldn't really turn against Lu Yuan.
However, just as she sat down at the dining table...
The table that originally held porridge and steamed buns suddenly had the food and tray removed, and replaced with another breakfast, which turned out to be a small wonton.
"According to my calculations, he might not have put poison in it, but he might have put something else in it. For your safety, Master, it is best not to eat food of unknown origin before entering the combat system."
Xia Yixin looked at the little wonton in front of her, unable to hide her surprise, "Where did you get this little wonton?"
The steaming hot wontons were clearly freshly made.
"The intelligent system can do more than you imagine, and of course, most importantly, this is something the chef secretly made to sneak a bite of."
She never expected that a serious AI could "do bad things," and whether it was her imagination or not, she could hear V's smugness. However, the calm, mechanical male voice reminding her of the "time" made her temporarily forget that momentary feeling.
She finished eating the wontons, and it was almost time.
Before entering the system, she made sure to ask V about the "safe house".
Last night, when Xia Yixin returned to the Consulate General's residence, V had already successfully hacked into the 'Safe House' system. The entire 'Safe House' had more than a thousand rooms of different sizes, some of which were marked "Highly Secret".
Xia Yixin didn't pay much attention to those things, focusing only on the location of the "experimental system". She knew yesterday that the brand-new combat system would be delivered this morning, so after discussing with V, she decided to relocate the "experimental system" as a whole and integrate it into the combat system. With the two systems running, it would be more concealed.
"Master, after you enter the system, I will temporarily relinquish control. I need one hour to merge the two systems. Be careful."
As she opened the system bay, V mechanically reminded her, and this time, she sensed a hint of concern in his voice.
However, the excitement of soon seeing the "truth" in the experimental system quickly made her stop thinking about it.
See you in an hour.
