Business District, Mechanical Street, No. Z-42.
It's not far from the "Lightning" studio that the team temporarily borrowed when Porter was adjusting the car.
According to the address given by An Xin, Mo Fan came to a four-story building.
The first floor is an antique electronic product collection store, and the second floor is a mechanical parts grocery store.
There is an independent neon sign on the outside of the third and fourth floors, which reads Blue Dream Network Security Maintenance Center.
"Blue Dream Network", Mo Fan still has an impression of this name. It was this store's drone that sent the map of the Death Race to Ruyi Office.
The owner of Blue Dream Network is the target he is looking for this time.
Entering the third floor, relying on the pass An Xin gave him, he opened the door of Lanmeng Network and entered the store.
The store was empty and there was no one in sight. He asked loudly: "Is Miss Sharon here?"
"coming."
A light female voice sounded from inside. Judging from the voice, she should be no more than twenty years old.
Soon, with the sound of wheels turning, a computer chair quickly slid out of the back room.
A girl with long lavender hair and wearing special maintenance goggles sat down on the computer chair, holding the back of the chair with her hands, and greeted him:
"Are you the newcomer from Bodhisattva's side?"
Seeing that the girl was sliding too fast and was about to hit the wall without stopping, Mo Fan grabbed the back of the computer chair as she passed by and lifted the girl and the chair together.
He held the computer chair with one hand, turned half a circle on the spot, and then put the girl down after removing the force from the computer chair.
"Hello, I'm Mo Fan. Nice to meet you. You helped me a lot during the Death Race."
Sharon took off the maintenance goggles that covered most of her face, revealing a face filled with youthful vitality.
Sharon has an oval face with smooth and light facial lines, a high forehead, round cheeks, and a little baby fat. She looks like the girl next door.
But those calm eyes filled with reason, and the slightly raised lips with a slightly crazy smile, showed that she was by no means a silly Baitian who was inexperienced in the world.
Hearing Mo Fan talk about the Death Race Competition, Sharon smiled and said, "It's just a small matter. Hacking into the database of the Death Race Team is no more troublesome than hacking into a vending machine."
"What's more, you are a very loyal guy and gave me a lot of extra hard work. For the sake of the 50,000 federal coins, I will take you around the "free world" today. "
Mo Fan asked doubtfully: "'Freedom'?" "
"You'll know later. Come with me first and help you make a virtual pass." Sharon kicked her feet on the ground and slid to the workroom inside on the swivel chair.
Mo Fan followed Sharon to the workroom and saw Sharon controlling the computer chair to stop steadily in front of the workbench, continuously inputting data on an instrument.
With a beeping sound, the indicator light of the instrument turned green, and Sharon took out a chip.
Then, she took out a bracelet and a pair of sunglasses and motioned to Mo Fan to put them on.
"The Bodhisattva said that you are a native body and do not have a brain-computer interface. If you want to connect to the "free world", you must use these external devices. "
Mo Fan put on the bracelet and sunglasses, and under Sharon's guidance, inserted the chip into the bracelet. The screen inside the sunglasses lit up, and a piece of information appeared in front of him.
"The Free World Pass has been activated, please complete your user profile."
Filling in personal information was no different from registering a game account. The other options were normal, but when it came to the gender column, he was a little confused.
There were hundreds of gender options, but after dragging them to the second and third last ones, he saw the familiar male and female options.
As for the last option, it is customization. Once selected, the multiple-choice questions can be expanded into fill-in-the-blank questions.
Mo Fan was stunned and looked at Sharon, "What gender should I be?"
Sharon showed a cautious expression, "From a principle and moral perspective, I cannot and should not assume your gender, but according to my experience, you should be male."
Mo Fan breathed a sigh of relief and chose the male.
"Thanks."
Sharon also took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her forehead, "For such a sensitive issue, you should ask the Bodhisattva next time."
After completing his personal information, Mo Fan asked: "What should I do next?"
"Follow me." Sharon slid the computer chair and led Mo Fan to the next room.
There is a recliner in the room, and the recliner is connected to a special host.
Sharon pulled out two wires from the recliner and connected them to Mo Fan's bracelet and glasses respectively.
"Go up and lie down. Next, I will take you into the free world. You may feel a little dizzy when you connect your consciousness for the first time, but hold it in and don't vomit in my studio."
"Don't worry, I'm not that fragile."
After lying down as Sharon asked, a prompt popped up on the screen in front of Mo Fan.
"Whether to enter the free world"
yes.
The next moment, his vision went dark, and when he opened his eyes again, he had entered a completely unfamiliar world.
The soft light shines down from the top of the head, even if it is seen suddenly, it does not feel dazzling at all.
He was in a square, with neatly cut square tiles paved at his feet. There was no one else in the square except him.
The platform is not very large, and you can walk to the edge in just a few steps. Looking down along the edge, you will see thick clouds below, making it impossible to see the bottom.
Looking into the distance, you can see a huge tree growing on the horizon.
The distance between him and the giant tree was tens of thousands of meters, but when he stared at the giant tree, he could miraculously see every detail on the tree.
The trunk and branches of the giant tree are made of gold, and the dense branches are covered with emerald-like crystal clear green leaves.
At first, he thought the giant tree was a switch for a certain scene, but after staring for a while, he found that nothing had changed around him, so he could only turn back to study the square.
As he explored the square, he kept feeling the space.
The space is very detailed. You can feel the flow of air and see the changes in the clouds. Looking down, you can see that each square tile has its own textures and holes.
The texture of the environment, the touch on the skin, and everything in sight are exactly the same as the real world.
There is no delay in all actions taken, and the objects you see are just like real objects, with no trace of special effects.
If it weren't for the huge mythical golden tree in the distance, he would have thought he had arrived in a new world.
However, it is magical here. Standing alone in the bare square, looking at the big trees in the distance, you will get tired of looking at it for a long time.
Just when he was thinking about whether there was something wrong with the instrument, a friend request popped up in front of him. The applicant was Lan Meng.
After accepting the invitation, a prompt pops up:
"Your friend Sharon, please request to have a call with you."
"accept."
A purple cat head appeared in front of him, and Sharon's voice sounded in his ears.
"Sorry, I forgot that your connection device was made by me. I thought it was troublesome and didn't transplant the intelligent AI guide assistant into it. So I can only guide you through the initialization settings."
Mo Fan: "..."
Sharon: "Now, if you click between your eyebrows twice, can you see a mini golden tree?"
Mo Fan: "Okay."
Sharon: "Looking at the golden tree, thinking about the menu."
Mo Fan followed Sharon's instructions and immediately called up the options menu, with dozens of icons arranged in front of him.
Sharon continued: "Do you see the wardrobe icon? Gaze at it and enter the personal appearance management interface."
The wardrobe icon enlarged, and a wardrobe appeared in front of Mo Fan. There was a dressing mirror standing next to the wardrobe.
In the fitting mirror, various data appear, just like the face-shaping and dressing-up interface in the game.
The degree of freedom in appearance adjustment is very high. Not only the facial features, body shape, clothes and other data can be adjusted, but also the race and biological type can be adjusted at will.
Anyway, it can be changed at any time, so Mo Fan chose the system default "Template 1" and transformed into a black stickman about 1.6 meters tall.
“I chose good looks.”
"Very good, return to the main interface, find the castle icon, and choose to connect to the public area."
"Let's move into true freedom."
