Chapter 51: These hands, never as powerful as they are today (Begging for recommendations, follows, and tips)
After carefully reading the images and text on the light screen, Sun Cheng still felt a sense of bewilderment in his eyes.
"Parallel world fusion?"
He tried to read more information from this newly appeared light screen, but the result was disappointing; even though Sun Cheng was already very close to this light screen, the entry option that appeared when he approached the other two light screens did not manifest.
"World fusion? Which two worlds are merging? And what kind of world is 【Jurassic Park】?"
After studying it for a while longer and still having no clue, Sun Cheng could only helplessly choose to give up.
He turned and came before the light screen on the far left; without the slightest hesitation, he immediately chose to enter that light screen, already unable to wait to return to the real world.
This journey to another world had been truly long and thrilling for Sun Cheng.
In the span of a month, he had stolen intelligence, invaded military bases, infiltrated Sector 7, and pitted his wits against Starscream and Soundwave; not only did he preserve his own life, but he also managed to rise from the lowest-level Decepticon grunt to the ranks of high-level Decepticons with the help of the 【AllSpark】.
From the initial discomfort of killing to the later indifference toward fragile lives.
From the fear and trepidation of the first time he deceived Starscream and Soundwave to the later ease and self-satisfaction of monopolizing information about the 【AllSpark】.
Sun Cheng had experienced a transformation that even he himself could clearly feel!
But this had made him too tired!
Now, he only wanted to sleep peacefully, to fall asleep without any worries, and to dream without any inhibitions!
Swish!
Suddenly, a water-blue light shone, accompanied by a strange illusion of his soul being pulled away and a brief dizziness; when Sun Cheng regained his senses, he suddenly felt a weight on his body, and the suffocating pressure caused his brain to wake up instantly.
Subconsciously looking at the heavy object pressing on him, Sun Cheng's eyes soon lit up; as soon as he lifted his head, he saw a massive, silver-gray cabinet-style item pressing heavily on his body—was it not the very IBM server he had spent so much effort to enhance and upgrade in the other world?
"Cough, cough..."
Being pressed by a server weighing several hundred kilograms, he felt extremely uncomfortable after only a short while.
Struggling to push it up with all his might, Sun Cheng hurriedly pulled his body out from under the server and curled up in a corner of his bed, gasping for air.
The student dormitory at 【Nandu University of Technology】 was the common "bed on top, cabinet below" combination found in domestic universities; the bed might be sturdy enough to even support two people, but it was hard to say if it could handle an additional server weighing several hundred kilograms.
Glancing at the still-dim window, he waited for his vision to adjust to the brightness inside the room before climbing down from the bed in the dark, stepping on the computer desk below.
Retrieving a flashlight from a drawer, Sun Cheng climbed back onto the bed using it for illumination, straightened the server, and opened the cabinet.
This enterprise-level server, originally designed by IBM, was a standard tower server.
However, when he later remodeled and upgraded it, Sun Cheng used the Decepticon's enhancement function to make significant adjustments; one of the most convenient changes was allowing the internal components of the cabinet to be easily detached and removed, just like rack-mount and blade servers, making it easier for him to perform hardware upgrades in the real world.
Besides that, this arrangement also freed up some space inside the server, so Sun Cheng took the opportunity to conduct a second experiment.
"Snap!"
The cabinet was quickly opened, revealing the many accessories inside the server.
Holding the flashlight, Sun Cheng's gaze did not linger for a second on the hardware he had upgraded using the Decepticon's enhancement ability in the other world, but instead looked directly at a black plastic box in the lower right side of the server, which was clearly distinct from the other accessories.
Hurriedly pulling the black plastic box out of the server and feeling its heavy weight, Sun Cheng could not hide the excitement on his face.
So much so that he even left the server on the bed for the moment, anxiously took the black plastic box off the bed, pulled over a stool, and sat down at the computer desk, even pushing his beloved laptop aside roughly.
Just like that, by the light of the flashlight, Sun Cheng impatiently opened the black plastic box.
The next second, when a yellow and black Taser X26 and another pitch-black Glock 17 pistol were revealed, the restlessness and faint unease that had been knotted in the center of Sun Cheng's brows finally vanished completely.
His expression returned to calm; Sun Cheng sat quietly at the table, calmly picked up the Taser, fiddled with it for a moment, and then put it back into the box. He then picked up the Glock 17 pistol, which had the highest popularity in the United States, and began to play with it in detail.
Power determines everything!
This was the only truth he had realized during his short month-plus stay with the Decepticons.
Without power, he had racked his brains and schemed, yet in the eyes of others, he was still nothing more than a pawn to be summoned and dismissed at will.
From the attack at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base and Barricade's mass slaughter, to being chased like a dog by the Americans in Tucson, and then to his wanton behavior after his promotion in Sector 7, all of it proved the simple and brutal values of the Decepticons.
Therefore, even though he knew the real world was much safer, he had still made full preparations, having been too fearful and anxious in the other world.
Since heaven had given him a chance to choose for himself, Sun Cheng would absolutely not let his safety be decided by others again.
The strange tactile sensation brought by the cold gun body of the Glock 17 continuously stimulated Sun Cheng's nerves through his fingertips, gradually calming his excited and agitated mood, and even the slight sleepiness he had felt disappeared.
Come to think of it, this attempt was truly a great harvest.
After playing with it for a good while, he finally put the Glock 17 back into the box and stowed it away carefully. Sun Cheng stood up again and looked at the heavy server on the bed, his eyes burning.
When he returned to the real world last time, he had brought back the Level 2 Core that Starscream had bestowed upon him.
Although he was very fearful afterward, Sun Cheng did indeed recognize its value and what that coincidence meant.
Therefore, there was this carefully planned experiment before this return.
Before confirming his return to reality, Sun Cheng had not only prepared a bag of diamonds and gold worth nearly ten million US dollars for himself, but also this equally valuable server and the weapons hidden inside the chassis.
Then, he returned to the real world once more.
Although he felt quite regretful that he had failed to bring back the bag of valuable diamonds and gold.
However, the other server he had used for the experiment and the weapons hidden inside had been brought back to reality, which made Sun Cheng quickly cast those slight regrets to the back of his mind.
A surge of ecstasy became even harder to contain, erupting violently in his heart.
Although Sun Cheng, having only experimented once, still had many uncertainties—such as whether only electronic equipment could be brought back, or whether two-way transmission was possible?
But looking down at his own hands, for the first time in his life, Sun Cheng felt so clearly that these hands had never been as powerful as they were today.
