Chapter 94: Activation
Accompanied by a brief sense of Xuan, Sun Cheng opened his eyes again and discovered that he had returned to the real world once more, back in his dormitory at Nanjing University of Technology.
"Truly magical..."
Although this was not his first time experiencing it, the strangeness and magic of traveling back and forth between two worlds still made him click his tongue in wonder.
Beside him, an ultra-thin laptop and a Camera, both transformed from Decepticons, were lying quietly on the floor. Although he had speculated about it before, when he truly discovered that he had brought two small Decepticons back into the real world, Sun Cheng could not hide his excitement.
This time returning to reality, he had brought back a total of three items; besides these two small Decepticons, there was also an Alloy Case leaning against his leg that looked exactly like a portable briefcase.
Picking up the ultra-thin laptop and the Camera from the floor, just as he prepared to place them on his computer desk, Sun Cheng noticed that it was a mess, covered with all sorts of miscellaneous small items.
It was clear how panicked and hurried he had been when he fled from the real world to the other world before!
It was precisely upon seeing these things that the memories in Sun Cheng's mind, which had gradually faded during his nearly two months in the other world, were reawakened.
"... Xiao Hong? I don't care who you are, this isn't over..."
His eyes could not help but turn somewhat cold; he sneered and pushed everything on the computer desk into the drawer quite casually, even tossing the IBM laptop he had originally favored onto the bed.
After the desk was completely cleared, Sun Cheng picked up the heavy Alloy Case and placed it on the desk as well.
This portable Alloy Case he brought back from the other world was a good thing; although not as good as the two small Decepticons, it was also crucial.
This was a Control Platform designed by Sun Cheng so that he could control the two small Decepticons in reality, storing inside it over a dozen transformation and functional completion schemes for small Decepticon Scouts.
Back then, to make it easier for him to control these two small Decepticons in the real world, Sun Cheng had erased their consciousness, so without this Control Platform, the utility of the two small Decepticons he brought from the other world would be more than half wasted.
The Alloy Case was not very large, about the same as a normal portable briefcase, but it was very heavy, weighing nearly twenty-something jin.
With a light tap of his finger on a red button beside the handle, a screen about five or six inches in size suddenly appeared on the front of the Alloy Case. At the very top was a row of twenty-four blank spaces, and below it was an inexplicable list composed of twenty-six English letters, ten Arabic numerals, and four punctuation marks.
This was the password system Sun Cheng had designed for himself, adopting a 24-bit Mixed Password List. Aside from himself, even if someone else obtained this briefcase, it would be impossible for them to crack and open it in a short time.
After skillfully inputting the twenty-four-bit password on the screen, a metallic "clack" sound came from inside the Alloy Case. The Alloy Case, which had previously seemed welded together with almost no visible seams, suddenly revealed some gaps.
Because he had input the correct password to open it, Sun Cheng lifted it gently once more and opened the case.
Inside, the upper half of the case displayed a huge screen, while the lower half was a keyboard, generally the same as a normal computer, except for some strange function keys composed of special characters and six identical ports.
Besides this, there were four special data cables inside the Alloy Case that were clearly different from Earth standards, as well as a thin bag wrapped in silk.
Taking out the small bag, Sun Cheng pinched the granular items inside with his hand, then tossed it into a corner of the desk.
This bag contained red and blue gemstones and diamonds worth tens of millions of United States dollars, all of them finished products, and most were the work of famous European and American masters; he had purchased them through various means in the United States market of the other world.
Although he did have the intention of bringing them to the real world to cash them in, this bag of gemstones was actually a test subject he used to verify the rules for carrying items during travel.
The last time he returned to the real world from the other world, two weapons Sun Cheng had hidden inside a Server were unexpectedly brought back.
He had suddenly thought of this matter before preparing to return to reality, so he had acted on a whim and anonymously purchased them from multiple jewelers in the United States a few days before returning; it seemed to have caused quite a stir.
Now, it had truly confirmed his previous discovery: other small items hidden inside a portable item recognized by the Spherical Space could actually travel along with it.
Having discovered another new rule regarding the Spherical Space, Sun Cheng undoubtedly had much more room for maneuver in the future.
The Control Platform had two built-in laptop batteries that he had upgraded with the Decepticon's Enhancement ability, capable of storing 80,000 milliampere-hours of power, enough to support the Control Platform for a long time without being connected to a power source, which was quite convenient.
After Sun Cheng started the Control Platform, he inserted a special data cable into one of the ports on the Control Platform, and connected the other end to the port under the Camera. Very quickly, a prompt appeared on the Control Platform.
"Successfully matched data for this model in the database. Do you wish to input the activation code to activate this model?"
This was naturally misleading information he had deliberately recorded to prevent the loss of the Control Platform in special circumstances; only he understood the true meaning.
"Confirm!"
After clicking the confirm key, a thirty-six-bit input box, longer than the one when the Control Platform was powered on, immediately popped up on the screen.
Sun Cheng had long since memorized the two sets of thirty-six-bit mixed activation codes by heart. After skillfully inputting the correct activation code, the screen immediately prompted: "Activation code input, confirmed correct. Activating this model, please wait patiently..."
A set of data composed of Cybertronian Script was quickly input from the Control Platform into the Camera. This Camera, which had been quietly waiting on the desk and was transformed from a small Decepticon Scout, soon began to squirm. After only three or four seconds, it transformed from its Camera form back into its insect form, looking at the slightly nervous Sun Cheng with blue light flashing in its eyes.
"Master, Decepticon Scout—Fuchou, reporting to you..."
A stiff, cold mechanical voice came from its mouth. The familiar Chinese made Sun Cheng's heart instantly relax; he knew he had succeeded!
PS:
There is only one update today. On one hand, I got off work too late; by the time I had eaten, washed up, and started typing, it was already past ten o'clock.
On the other hand, the next chapter of this book is about to enter a crossover storyline between 【Jurassic Park】 and another movie. But I just discovered that I only have the other movie on my computer and not 【Jurassic】. I found that I can watch it on iQIYI, but who knew that once I clicked in, I could only watch for a few minutes. I have no choice but to find resources to download it first; I need to brush up on the plot of 【Jurassic】.
