Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!-Chapter 467 - 398 Hammering_2

But after all, the "virtual world" is derived from the same source as the internet, and its essence is merely a standardized response to changes in external information.

All its reactions are pre-input, limited in variation, and incapable of creating something out of nothing.

As long as the other party acts like the simplest robot, following the most basic logic—stealing food when hungry, and temporarily leaving when full or startled, there will eventually come a day when it is caught!

Pansen, having composed himself, suddenly turned and headed back towards the direction of the central control panel, "Continue!"

"My Lord... it is this way."

"Oh~"

...

Pansen sat cross-legged, closing his eyes to adjust his breath.

Bai E stood in place, but his eyes were glazed over.

The assistant’s gaze shifted back and forth between the two, feeling that both of them seemed rather odd.

She might not understand the cultivation of a spiritual energy master, but she had at least heard of it to some extent.

But Bai E... why, although present here, does his soul seem to be wandering far away?

"Hey~" The assistant waved her hands in front of Bai E’s eyes, "What are you thinking about?"

"Smack smack~"

Blinking twice, a standard smile appeared on Bai E’s face, "Thinking about things."

"Is that so?"

The assistant leaned in close to Bai E’s chin and looked up into his eyes, "But it seems like you weren’t even looking at me?"

His eyes stiffly turned and looked directly at the assistant below, and Bai E’s voice calmly rose, word by word, "How about now?"

"..." The assistant wrapped her arms around herself, feeling an earnest chill crawl up her spine.

The movement of Bai E’s eyes was like that of well-made puppets, stiff and rigid.

Although his eyes turned towards her, there was no light of life in the pupils.

"Is there anything else?" Bai E asked once more.

Being multitasked to such an extent was truly uncomfortable, even with the presence of a mechanical mind, it significantly slowed down the progress of his training in spiritual energy.

If possible, he wished to quickly dispel the curiosity brimming within this assistant.

"No… there’s nothing more."

Hearing the voice that was so calm it was almost devoid of any warmth, the assistant abandoned any thoughts of probing further.

Everything had changed... everything...

’Perhaps this is a rejection... sob sob~’

Pansen’s ears twitched lightly as he withdrew the spiritual energy that was specially enhanced for hearing.

For some reason, his spiritual perception could always sense a subtle threat, looming close at hand.

Around him, there always seemed to be another source that could disturb the spiritual energy.

Yet, whenever he released his "probing" spiritual energy, he never found any abnormalities, which meant that the other party was always able to avoid his spiritual abilities.

If such a "person" existed, then they must be exceptionally good at hiding and disguising.

The most likely suspect was that miracle-creating warrior... the special forces captain, the artificial human, Bai E.

Observation always leaves traces, and if the other party deliberately avoids the dimension of spiritual energy to "observe" oneself, then monitor everything around them in another way.

The spiritual energy would be noticed and deliberately avoided by the other party, so use the most primitive methods to monitor everything.

Ears… eyes… these are the greatest sources of information that humans rely upon.

However...

The clear conversation between the strange-feeling Captain Bai and Assistant Minister that entered Pansen’s ears, Minister Eric whom he had known for many years, and the only people who were close were these three.

A bit further out were the original guards of the base and the information department technicians who came along this time to maintain the mainframe group.

There were no anomalies.

Could it really be an illusion?

The substantial enhancement of my Spiritual Energy in such a short time has made me sensitive, is that profound and obscure hyper-level space trying to add a "suspicious" trait to my character? Your next journey awaits at novelbuddy

Spiritual Energy practitioners always have to guard against whispers from high-dimensional space; it’s the battle every practitioner must face throughout their lives.

"Probably... it’s really just my own illusion,"

Pansen heaved a light sigh, letting go of the unease in his heart, completely immersing himself into his Spiritual Power World.

Time passed, unknowingly how long, as Bai E occasionally became distracted and maneuvered his body like one would a Mecha, but in the end, all he got was a cautious inquiry from Minister Eric from a distance.

"Sir... should we rest for a while?"

Pansen’s eyes, showing a trace of fatigue, slowly opened as he looked at the concerned Minister Eric, "What’s the matter?"

"It’s getting late... almost one o’clock."

They had arrived at the base just after five in the morning, and since about six, they had been tracking the "virtual world" from this central control console, focused for nearly eighteen hours straight.

Even just maintaining the minimum level of attention, both he and his assistant Miss were reaching their limits, with waves of drowsiness coming on unstoppable, yearning to lie down in a soft bed enveloped in the bedding.

"...One o’clock." Pansen, his eyes slightly bloodshot, shook his head, "You go rest, I’ll keep waiting here."

The virtual world’s emergence time was just a fleeting few minutes. If he went to rest in the break area, even if he received news of its appearance immediately, by the time he arrived, there would hardly be any time left; he couldn’t accept that.

"But, sir... continuing to wait here might not be much use," Minister Eric, having reviewed the log records as well, said, "Based on past experiences, that thing won’t reappear until at least tomorrow morning."

With the experience they currently had, it wasn’t possible to pinpoint the exact time of the virtual world’s appearance, but providing a rough time frame was not an issue.

Once stabilized, the virtual world generally appeared once a day.

Today, due to their first arrival and certain special circumstances, which the assistant Miss did not dare confirm or explain, they had all waited until now.

Otherwise, as soon as the virtual world "satisfied its hunger" and naturally fled the second time, she would have already advised everyone to rest.

"...Sir, please go back and rest first."

"No need," Pansen didn’t budge, simply waving his hand, "You go rest, I’ll keep watch here..."

Even if the virtual world wouldn’t appear for a while, Pansen did not plan to rest.

The fewer the opportunities to respond to the virtual world, the better; naturally, he wanted to refine his Spiritual Energy to a finely controllable degree in the shortest time possible.

The virtual world remained unknown to humans, and he first had to ensure his preparations were without fault.

"However, I don’t know how to operate this equipment..."

Letting Minister Eric and the assistant Miss go rest, in case the virtual world suddenly appeared, Pansen didn’t want to miss that rare opportunity.

In the day’s wait, Minister Eric had almost mastered the functions of the entire control console after consulting with the assistant Miss; now, these two were the only people in the base who could quickly determine the location of its emergence after the virtual world appeared.

"We could take turns to rest..." Minister Eric quickly reacted, turning to the assistant Miss and said proactively, "Aryan, you rest first, and I’ll hold on a bit longer."

"No need." Bai, who had been silently observing, suddenly spoke up, "Minister, Aryan, you both go rest; I’ll stay here."

With that, Bai then looked at Pansen, his eyes firm and steady, "Sir, I know how."

"You?" Pansen was somewhat puzzled.

"Bai has done considerable research in technical fields; when he says he knows, he does,"

Seeing Bai step forward, Minister Eric immediately vouched for him and then turned to Bai, "But you’re tired too."

"It’s okay," Bai shook his head, "We soldiers tend to have more stamina than you do."

"True..." Minister Eric yawned deeply, "Then we’ll leave this to you two, and we’ll go to rest. Come on, Aryan."
