: Magical Virtual Reality Pod (Part One)
Han’s virtual reality pod finally arrived. It was sent by a company Han had never heard of, called the Interstellar Flash Freight Group’s company, to Han’s mother planet Earth.
When the pod was delivered Han, was still on his way back, so he didn’t care about exactly who sent the package. When he told Yuan Yuan to investigate that company, they found out that it was only registered a year ago, and the registration location was in the 43rd Star Sector, a remote mining planet close to the galactic wilderness.
This Dark Net Meet felt strange all around. Not only did the participants have to use the specially delivered virtual reality pod and activate the login program on one’s home planet, but up until now, Han didn’t know why he was invited and who else was invited to determine the criteria for selecting guests.
To everyone that wanted to attend the Dark Net Meet, they were all attracted by one of the three things.
First, one could meet many dark net dwellers that mastered top tier skills.
The galactic dark net was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. It was because Han met people like the three addicts on the dark net that he was able to lay down the foundations in one swoop for his rise in the Milky Way.
And the dark network used the isolated island rule, limiting the use of search engines. Everyone’s like an isolated island on the dark net, only lucky people could find experts that appreciated their work, and the majority of people didn’t even know what was on the dark net and what they did.
Now that they had the opportunity to gather all the top tier experts on the dark net in one place, that’s like breaking the island rule, and it’s definitely a golden opportunity for people that loved to learn.
Secondly, one could perform trades.
Without a doubt, the people that will attend the Dark Net Meet will all bring works that they were the proudest of, and the scene will definitely be fun and eye-opening.
At that moment, the things that couldn’t be easily bought on the dark net or treasures that were never even shown to the world will make appearances, equivalent to a top trading summit, even for those that could not afford those shocking goods, it’s still good to get some information on them.
Third. The temptation from the dark net itself.
It was said, the Dark Net Meet will not have the founder of the Galactic Dark Net joining. It will also give rewards to the top experts in each industry, and announce a piece of major news that was sufficient to change the entire galaxy.
Not even the Protector knew who founded the dark net, and that was enough to show that the dark net’s existence itself was still a myth. Wanting to reveal the answer is human nature, no one would not want to know the secret of the dark net.
Not to mention the rewards and major news.
In general, it was very hard for anyone that received the invitation to reject.
Of course, except for people like the 3 addicts that lived in the Oblivion Realm. They seem to have some kind of unbeatable nemesis, and they still adamantly refused after taking into account the risk.
Although the organizer strongly advised everyone to come in disguise, that was still not enough to dispel the concerns of people like the 3 addicts. Han speculated that the person that the 3 addicts offended in the past was probably an existence at the Protector’s level, or maybe even stronger.
So, although the majority of masters in the Oblivion Realm received the invitation, among them, the majority refused the invitation.
After returning to Earth, Han went to see the virtual reality pot that was just shipped. It was placed in an independent room at the Nazca base’s training center, where the talents of Earth once trained in preparation for the galactic meet.
What kind of people delivered the virtual reality pod?
Han curiously asked Long Chuan who accompanied him.
Long Chuan shrugged his shoulders and said,
To be honest, we didn’t see any of the people and the ship of that delivery company. Just a few days after you told us that a virtual reality pod was coming, we received encrypted communication saying that the virtual reality pod is here, and it was placed at a hidden place at Colorado’s Grand Canyon and told us to go retrieve it.
So I sent people there, and when our people arrived, they just saw a box lying on the river bank by itself, no ship, no delivery people. So we just brought back the box, opened it, and placed the pod in the room you often used.
Han nodded, he had expected that the people of the dark net didn’t want to make an appearance.
But there should be a lot of people in the Milky Way that received the invitation. To deliver virtual reality pods in such a short time period across different places of the Milky Way which had a span of 120,000 lights years, it was a heavy task, and it showed that the power of the dark net founder was likely to be even stronger than he imagined.
Pushing open the door, Han saw that virtual reality pod. It was not much different from the model that was commonly used in the Milky Way, black, like a large duck egg.
The pod came with a miniature controllable fusion reactor, so there is no worry of power cut. It also had an overclocked encrypted cellular data port, capable of always keeping the network smooth.
Long Chuan said,
I asked the lab to check the device and realized that this pod was only one piece, and if we want to see its internal circuit structure we will have to completely destroy it.
Even the Weimar ray machine cannot penetrate to the inside of the virtual reality pod, so until now we don’t have any information on this thing’s internal conditions and we can’t even open the cabin.
Frowning, Long Chuan continued,
In fact, even if we use a high-intensity industrial laser cutter, we still have no way to open the shell of this pod. Old Mo came to see it himself. He said, this was a metal alloy he had never seen before, and judging by his analysis, even if the pod was thrown into a black hole, this thing will still be able to remain intact.
Han, who actually sent you such a strange thing? Its level seems to be much higher than the Milky Way’s current technology level.
Han smiled,
It’s a friend. Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.
: Magical Virtual Reality Pod (Part Two)
Then, Han placed his left hand on the virtual reality pod’s shell, and as expected, when the equipment detected Han’s DNA data, although it didn’t open, but it displayed some useful information.
The VR Pod will only open during specified time.
The VR pod must be opened in a completely sealed environment.
With the VR pod as the center point, there must not be signs of life within a 100-meter radius.
These three requirements were obviously harsh, but Han still decided to follow the requirements. He asked Long Chuan to move the VR Pod to the Nazca Base’s underground level and strictly restricted other people from entering.
Although Long Chuan didn’t know what Han was going to do, but due to his absolute trust of Han, he still followed Han’s instructions.
Han also went to see Old Mo, and passed on the greetings from the 3 addicts. Of course, Yuan Yuan was also very happy, its relationship with Old Mo could not be compared.
Actually, Old Mo also received the invitation. As the top machinist in the Milky Way and a top level skinner, the achievement he accomplished in these two fields were enough for him to get into the mysterious dark net founder’s field of vision.
But just like the 3 addicts, Old Mo also didn’t want to go. His reason was relatively simpler, he already retired.
As an old man from the Kui race, Old Mo’s thinking was relatively simpler in comparison to humans. Since he already decided to retire, then just let all the things in the past go. Besides, it’s not like he doesn’t have work right now. He agreed to Han that he would help Earth train mechanics, so he really cared about this job and doesn’t want to delay even one day of work.
This was the focus of Old Mo. Han really appreciated it so he also didn’t say anything else.
Moreover, the dark net required everyone to access the VR pod from their mother planet, and Old Mo’s mother planet was in the galactic wilderness far away from the Milky Way, not to mention the long voyage back and forth, the journey would also be full of danger.
Han became a little a bit uneasy waiting for the day to open the VR pod.
Every day he would take out half of the time to train and deal with affairs on Earth, and the remaining time would be used by Han to prepare all sorts of medicines and drugs. He had a toxin resistant body which allowed him to take a lot of drugs at once, so there was no harm in preparing more for storage.
He will pass on the fusion beasts for now. Now Han took the elite soldier route and didn’t want to take a pile of fusions beasts with him anymore. It would take a lot of space inside the Lunar Mark, and the Demon Claw and the Ghost Claw’s combat strength was powerful enough; definitely a lot stronger than a group of Godly Armored Beasts.
When a person gets busy, time will pass quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was time for the Dark Net Meet to start.
In accordance to the invitation Han received before, the invitees must first accept the audit of the virtual network. After the audit is passed, the invitee would then receive the real address of the Dark Net Meet.
It’s just that Han couldn’t figure it out, the invitation reminded everyone to take all belongings with them before entering the VR Pod, and it also suggested that there’s no time limit to the length of the virtual meet, maybe one day, maybe one year.
This kind of suggestion undoubtedly deepened the mystery of the dark net. Han wasn’t actually too worried about carrying items, he had a large dimension storage item called the Lunar Mark.
As for the long meeting time, Han wasn’t worried as well. After all it’s a virtual meeting, just like the soul travelling out of the physical body. If there’s really an emergency, he could just end the program and return.
In accordance with the requirement to disguise himself, Han came to the underground level of the Nazca base himself, pushed opened the door, walked into the room, and let out a long breath in front of the VR pod.
Especially delivering a VR pod just for one virtual meet, the founder of the dark net was really cautious about it, doing it presumably to keep it confidential.
After inserting the login card, the port automatically closed, and because this thing used an unknown high-strength metal, now not even Han could get the login card out.
Placing his left hand on the icy cold black case of the VR pod, the DNA assessment procedures immediately started, and then the door opened.
Han laid down into the coffin-like VR pod. The interior wasn’t like the previous models Han used, there was no flexible cushion. It was entirely metal inside, giving off a cold and depressing theme.
The VR pod with a damping device installed began to close its lid, and soon, Han was in absolute darkness, and a countdown sound came to his ear.
Identity confirmed, Dark Net Access Program running.
10 seconds countdown.
Han pouted his mouth, this thing, even its program settings were not the same as other pods. Other VR pods would usually report that the neuron link was complete, starting synchronization and something like that.
Shua~
When the ten second countdown ended, Han felt as if he was instantly melted and turned into countless tiny molecule structures and sent into a long, dark dimension tunnel with no visible end.
His body completely lost consciousness, and Han couldn’t even hear his heart beating anymore. He no longer needed to breath, as if he turned into a zombie.
He didn’t know how long this feeling lasted.
Han felt that he regained his heart beat, and even his breathing became more smooth.
This is really an extraordinary virtual access; what kind of principle are they using? Why am I still inside the VR pod? Could there be a program error?
Han wondered.
Snap~
The VR pod’s cover opened, a touch of dazzling sunlight shone in.
Light? If the VR pod didn’t start properly, I should still be in the underground level of Nazca base, where did the sunlight come from?
Although Han had a full stomach of questions, but when he sat up from the VR pod, he noticed that there was really a big sun above his head. It seemed to be a tropical area, on the giant grass field. Beside him, there were many identical VR pods all slowly opening, and people all sat up in shock like Han.
This is the virtual reality world? Why does something feel not right?
Han scratched his head and thought.
If Han could get in contact with the Nazca base, then he would find out that the Nazca base was now in a panic, because in the underground level, Han and his dedicated VR pod, both disappeared.
