Chapter 391

Under the youth's guidance, Wang Yu soon arrived in front of two white game pods with their hatches wide open.

Li Xiaodao looked at the numbers on the white game pods and said with a nod:

"These are the two. Note that if you are not an official mecha pilot, you only have one hour. After you enter the game, call up the game interface directly in the game and search for the temporary virtual room numbered 【redacted】, the password is..."

A moment later, Wang Yu lay into the white game pod. After the hatch cover closed, it was pitch black before his eyes without a trace of light, yet he could feel fresh air flowing around him, and there was no feeling of oppression at all.

After a "poof" sound, jelly-like soft substances sprayed out from all directions, instantly wrapping his body. At the same time, his head and the cervical spine area on his back felt slightly numb, as if something was faintly pressing tightly against them.

The next moment, bright white light appeared before his eyes. After a feeling of the world spinning, his feet suddenly stood on a gleaming dark gray metal floor.

People were coming and going all around, mostly personnel wearing various uniforms, and there were also some clerical staff wearing white clothes.

Not far away, there were small armed mechas a zhang tall patrolling back and forth, seemingly on guard against something.

"Mars Base."

Wang Yu muttered to himself upon seeing this situation.

This was exactly the Mars Base he had arrived at directly after passing the novice level in the game, and this was the Mars Base mecha pilot lobby, which handled all matters related to mecha pilots.

A year ago, there were very few players who could reach this place, but now, scanning the crowd around him, one could see a large number of people with the glowing word "Player" above their heads.

Most of these players were wearing the same dark green uniforms as him, and only a few people were wearing conspicuous blue uniforms, with a silver mechanical planet badge hanging on their chests.

This was the mecha pilot badge representing the status of an official mecha pilot.

If it were an elite-level mecha pilot, it was said to be golden.

Seeing this, Wang Yu couldn't help but lower his head to look at himself, only to see a blue mechanical planet badge hanging honestly on his chest.

He was clearly still a reserve mecha pilot in the game, which was what most players were jokingly called mecha pilot apprentices in the real world.

Wang Yu did not feel surprised by this. Although he had already cultivated to the third-level Star Mind Power, he had never certified his official mecha pilot status in the game.

As far as he knew, to become an official mecha pilot, one had to pass a very strict assessment. It was said to be extremely harsh and even required a bit of luck to pass. This was why there were fewer than 100,000 official mecha pilots in "Star River" now, and everyone who obtained the status of an official mecha pilot became a high-end talent for their respective countries overnight.

However, his entry into "Star River" this time was not to take the exam for an official mecha pilot, but for another urgent matter.

Thinking of this, Wang Yu swiped one hand in front of him, and a white, hazy light screen appeared out of thin air. He tapped on it a few times and entered some numbers.

The next moment, the scenery around him blurred, and he appeared in a long white corridor.

On both sides of the corridor were silver doors, and looking toward both ends, one could not see the end at a glance. All the doors had numbers representing room numbers hanging on them.

He looked at the room number on the silver door in front of him, which was clearly written in black characters.

Wang Yu did not hesitate, walked straight up, placed both hands directly on the silver door, and at the same time began to silently recite another long string of numbers in his heart.

With a "zila" sound.

The door slowly opened, and he raised an eyebrow and walked in.

The silver door then slowly closed.

Wang Yu had only walked a few steps inside when he couldn't help but stop.

The scene behind the door was truly unexpected!

Before him was a small lake covering an area of about a li. In the center of the lake was a flock of white swans, and by the lakeside was a path paved with white pebbles, with some emerald willow trees planted sparsely nearby.

A spring breeze blew, the lake water rippled, and the white geese honked, making one feel intoxicated.

But Wang Yu's gaze fell on a long wooden chair by the small lake, facing the door. A middle-aged man was sitting on the wooden chair, holding a book and reading it with great interest.

"Chen Boshi."

Wang Yu saw the man's appearance clearly, felt a joy in his heart, and shouted loudly.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man put down the book, glanced at Wang Yu, said nothing, but beckoned to him.

Wang Yu walked over with large strides. Compared to that General Xu, who was dignified and stern, he was more familiar with this Chen Boshi and was more willing to deal with him.

"Chen Boshi."

A moment later, Wang Yu walked to the bench and called out to the middle-aged man again.

"Sit. This lake is a very famous landscape from my hometown; some call it White Goose Lake." Chen Boshi said nothing else, patted the seat next to him on the bench, and signaled for him to sit down.

"White Goose Lake."

Wang Yu muttered to himself and sat down next to Chen Boshi without standing on ceremony, while his mind was pondering whether he had ever heard of this attraction anywhere in China.

"You don't need to think about it; the place called White Goose Lake has not yet appeared in the current China." Chen Boshi seemed to see what Wang Yu was thinking and said with a smile.

"Doctor, what do you mean by 'current China'?" Wang Yu vaguely felt that he had heard something and asked subconsciously.

"Hehe, you don't know? Being able to ask that, it seems you really have a certain probability of being student Ding Yu; at the very least, the consciousness in this body might be student Ding Yu's." Chen Boshi said with a chuckle upon hearing this.

"Doctor, you still don't quite believe me." Wang Yu's gaze flickered a few times before he asked slowly.

"I don't know whether I should believe it or not, but from the moment you entered the door, I haven't seen any difference between you and the original student Ding Yu. After all, logically speaking, you couldn't possibly appear here." Chen Boshi said with an unchanging expression.

"Couldn't possibly appear here? What do you mean?" Wang Yu frowned.

"It means that, theoretically, you should have never left the base, let alone appeared abroad." Chen Boshi stared at Wang Yu and said word by word.

"Never left the base? Then what am I? Doctor, no need to beat around the bush, just tell me the reason for saying this." Wang Yu had a vague, bad premonition and asked solemnly.

Chen Boshi fell silent. After staring at Wang Yu for a good while, he said gloomily:

"It's very simple, because you are already dead.

When an British Federation esper infiltrated the base, that esper's electromagnetic field went out of control, and Ding Yu died on the spot. Even his body turned into charcoal. However, because of his special status, his remains are still being well preserved at the base."

"The body turned into charcoal? Already dead?"

After hearing Chen Boshi's words, Wang Yu was stunned. Scenes of Helena's superpower going out of control flashed through his mind one after another. His expression changed repeatedly, and he did not speak for a long time.

"So I am also very curious, who exactly are you?

I heard that you can also draw the Four Beast Charm Pictures. According to the news sent back, the effect is even better than the Charm Pictures produced uniformly by the base here?" Chen Boshi looked at the current Wang Yu with curious eyes, as if he were looking at some kind of novel species.
