Chapter 1042

Li Yinfei's gaze turned dark when she saw the two of them were mesmerized by her looks . However, her expression still remained gentle . She smiled and said, “I want to know what that screen is for . What do you do exactly? Can you please help me answer my question?”

“Sure, sure, Miss Li . ” The two people rushed towards the biggest screen in the room . Since all their attention was on Li Yinfei, they b.u.mped into many objects along the way, causing them to almost fall multiple times . The representative of Mai'er Fa covered his face in embarra.s.sment . They are such an embarra.s.sment . '

The two workers continued staggering their way forward as if they couldn't understand the word 'shame' .

“Actually, this screen is our newest invention . Normally, when humans wanted to enter the virtual world, they needed to enter through a virtual login pod . But, we don't need that huge antique here . ” The two workers turned very serious when they started talking about their specialization . The confusion in their eyes subsided a little . As they went deeper into the topic, their eyes even had a glimmer of pa.s.sion .

Li Yinfei and Ling Lan exchanged glances with each other . Both of them got on their guards .

“If you touch these few places, you'll be able to enter the virtual world . ” Another worker pointed at a few spots on the big screen . His eyes shone brightly as he asked, “Miss Li, will you be interested to try it?”

“What will happen to my body when I go in?” . Li Yinfei was excited to try it but she was cautious . It was very dangerous for a lady to be unconscious in front of a bunch of strangers, especially when the strangers were a bunch of men . Most women… no even men wouldn't take the risk . There was no one here that she could entrust her body to, if her conscious entered the virtual world .

“You can take a short nap on the chairs,” a worker replied hurriedly .

Li Yinfei now understood why there were comfortable sofa chairs in front of the few spots the staff pointed at just now . Those sofas were for people to sleep in .

“Miss Li, you can try it . If you feel uncomfortable in there, you just need to think about leaving and your conscious will immediately leave the virtual world . ” The worker invited her enthusiastically .

Li Yinfei thought for a moment . Then, she turned around and looked at Ling Lan in the eyes . “Little Yang, go and try it first . If it's fun, I'll try it . ”

After thinking about it, Li Yinfei still didn't want to become the first person to experience something so unknown to her . She was a VIP guest of Mai'er Fa but Mailer Fa was very secretive and unpredictable . She didn't want to take risk rashly .

Ling Lan appeared elated at the opportunity . Her eyes lit up as she looked towards the two workers . She seemed to be asking them with her eyes if she could try it out .

The two workers weren't surprised when they saw Li Yinfei being careful and asking her servant to try it out first . Most people would be cautious about unfamiliar things so they didn't mind her distrust . “Sure . Little brother, this way please . ” One of the staff members patted the sofa beside him, signalling Ling Lan to come over .

“Thank you, big brother . ” Ling Lan thanked the worker with a sincere and innocent smile . In response, the worker's smile got more sincere too .

Ling Lan laid on the sofa and touched the spot where the staff pointed at just now . She suddenly felt herself entering the virtual world in an instant .

They actually didn't need a login pod to enter the virtual world . The moment Ling Lan entered the virtual world, she noticed that she appeared on a busy street . There were people walking all around her, and there was also a white barrier around her body . This barrier was to protect the people who just entered the virtual world as everyone needed time to get acclimatized to the virtual world .

But, this was not the case for Ling Lan as she could instantly get acclimatized to the virtual world . Ling Lan counted 10 seconds in her heart and the white barrier disappeared around . The barrier lasted for 10 seconds . Barriers in Mai'er Fa lasted as long as a barrier would last in the Federation . Hence, no matter how or where you entered the virtual world, barriers in the virtual world would always last 10 seconds .

After 10 seconds, Ling Lan still didn't move . She counted another five seconds before she raised her head . Her dim eyes turned bright .

The people around her didn't seem surprised at Ling Lan's appearance . They just ignored Ling Lan's presence and continued on their journey . The people here seemed to be used to a stranger suddenly appearing beside them .

“This type of technology couldn't be perfected in a short time . ” Ling Lan started to become more vigilant towards Mai'er Fa . It was obvious that their development of the technologies in the virtual world was way ahead of all the other nations . Mailer Fa might have invented all these technologies to sell to other nations . This could be why the other nations were afraid of Mai'er Fa and didn't dare to offend it .

“Little Four, are there any powerful hackers watching over us . ” Ling Lan pretended to look around curiously but in actual fact, she was asking Little Four to check their surroundings .

“There are more than ten hackers around us but none of them is powerful . ” In the virtual world, Little Four was able to grasp the entire situation around him within a short time . He easily discovered the people that were watching over Ling Lan .

“I understand . ” This was a very normal thing to do . No matter how harmless the person was, they should still keep their eyes on the person . Ling Lan finally grasped the situation around her, so she ordered Little Four to finish what he didn't complete yesterday night . At the same time, she reminded Little Four to be careful to not let the G.o.d-cla.s.s hacker notice him again .

Little Four arrogantly told her that this would never happen again . One mistake was enough for him . If he was discovered by that hacker again, he wouldn't have the face to claim that he was the virtual G.o.d anymore .

Soon, Little Four started doing what he needed to do without arousing any suspicion, so Ling Lan just started wandering around the street blindly to waste some time . She then saw a bunch of people congregating in a certain area so she asked a pa.s.ser-by what was happening there . The pa.s.ser-by told her that this was the entrance to the venue to watch the mecha tournament . Those who didn't have a ticket to the tournament could enter the virtual world and watch the live broadcast by Mai'er Fa . It was as exciting as watching the match personally .

However, you need to buy a ticket to enter this venue too . The only thing different between the two venues was that the venue in the virtual world didn't have a seat limit unlike the venues in the real world . The number of people who could enter this venue was infinite .

Ling Lan followed the crowd and entered the venue curiously . She started watching the mecha tournament along with everyone .

In the emergency room, the staff members took the images of Ling Lan wandering around in the virtual world and started introducing to Li Yinfei what this invention could mean to the virtual world . Li Yinfei nodded her head fervently like a naive customer in front of a cunning salesperson . She seemed surprised and astounded at how advanced were the technologies in Mai'er Fa . Seeing Li Yinfei being all excited about their pa.s.sion project, caused the workers to also feel excited . They wanted to show off even more things in front of their G.o.ddess .

On one side of the room, a purple light and a red light followed behind Li Yinfei into the tunnel where they were trapped in yesterday . In an afternoon worth of time, the damaged parts of the tunnel had been completely repaired . This scene made the two of them feel even more fearful of Mai'er Fa . They were very clear on how badly damaged the tunnel was yesterday .

When they saw Li Yinfei walking into the office area, they wanted to follow behind her . But, a person suddenly appeared at the entrance and smiled at them . They were familiar with this person in front of them . It was the old man who talked to them yesterday .

This was one of the limitations of a powerful offense element . They weren't able to hide perfectly like the other people who had the different elemental concepts . No matter how they integrate into the element, there would still be traces left behind . The faint red light and the purple light in the air might be probably what exposed them .

When the two people saw the old man, they knew they were exposed . They wanted to go back into the tunnel but another middle-aged man had appeared behind them .

They could hear their hearts dropped . Their path of retreat was blocked . It looked like their enemy had prepared for the appearance beforehand .

It made sense . How could they not improve their security after letting a stranger in? Maybe they had already expected that they would make use of Li Yinfei's visit to sneak into the office .

“My young master sends an invitation to you two . ” The old man guided them in a certain direction .

Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran had no choice but to turn back into their human form .

“Who is your young master?” Tang Ningyu raised one of his eyebrows and asked . They sneaked in twice and got invited twice . These people must be using them for something . However, this might be their chance too .

“Young Master said that someone interrupted us last night so we can't start the game properly . Now, he wants to invite you to continue the game . ” As expected, it was the same bunch of people as yesterday .

Tang Ningyu looked at Mu Chaoran . Mu Chaoran shrugged . He would follow what Tang Ningyu decided

Tang Ningyu was a decisive mission . Since he couldn't run away, why don't they take the risk and see how it goes .

The two of them followed the old man into a lift . They entered the mecha tournament venue . The old man led them to a door and took out a card . He swiped it into a machine beside the door and the door opened, revealing two magnificent ace mechas .

“Young master said that as long as you managed to get top three in the mecha tournament, you'll win the game . ” The old man smiled as he took out two mecha keys from his pocket and pa.s.sed it to Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran .

“Aren't you afraid that we'll run away with the mechas?” Tang Ningyu asked coldly .

“You can try . ” The old man smiled without any trace of fear .

“I guessed that there's a system that can remotely control the mechas” Mu Chaoran looked at the center of the arena where a web-like object could be seen .

“Very surprising for someone from the Flying Dragon Special Forces to be so smart . Since we dared to host a mecha tournament, we must have the necessary measures against them . ” The old man wasn't worried when their plan was found out .

“If you want it to be an ace mecha, it will be an ace mecha . If you don't want it to be an ace mecha, it will just be a pile of rubbish . ” Mu Chaoran sneered .

That was the only reason why they didn't mind lending them the ace mechas . No matter how strong a mecha was, it was useless against a device that curbed it .

“We'll partic.i.p.ate in this game . ” Mu Chaoran and Tang Ningyu took the key off the old man's hand .

Their lives were in the hands of their opponents . It was not an option to reject them .

“However, we request that we can't be in the same group until the finals . ” Tang Ningyu added on . He didn't want to fight with Mu Chaoran before the finals started .

“Don't worry . Mailer Fa won't do such a despicable thing,” the old man smiled and replied .

Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran boarded their mechas after the old man's a.s.suring reply . They started getting used to their mechas . Even though they were close to becoming an imperial operator, this was still an unfamiliar mecha so they needed some time to get familiar with it . Plus, entering the top three wasn't easy . Based on their knowledge, the highest level of mecha operator in this tournament was ace mecha master . However, due to the format being a life-or-death battle, many operators who were a step away from imperial level would join to get enlightened at the last moment and advance to become an imperial operator .

Many ace mecha masters who got stuck at the doors of imperial level would hide their ident.i.ties and enter the mecha tournament . Therefore, this wasn't a tournament that they could mess around and win .

All these people were worthy opponents they had to beat .

While Ling Lan was watching the mecha tournament, she suddenly remembered the time when she entered the virtual world for the first time and watched a mecha tournament with Li Lanfeng who had dressed in a black gown . That was her first time watching a mecha tournament . After that, she worked hard and became one of the most renowned mecha operators .

When Ling Lan just came to the venue, a match had just ended . The host of the match started firing up the emotions of the audience for the next battle, as the first ace mecha battle was starting

Ling Lan looked at the arena with interest . She saw a Federation-made ace mecha entering the arena . On the other side, a Caesar-made ace mecha stepped in . The battle between the mechas of the two most powerful nations in the galaxy caused the audience to become even more excited . Screams and shouts filled up the venue . Everyone was supporting the mecha they liked .

“Now, let's invite Dark Flame from the Federation to fight against Fox from Caesar . ”

Even the two mecha operators were from these two countries . The atmosphere got even more rousy . The entire place seemed to be burning with enthusiasm .

“Boss, do you know who Dark Flame is?” When Little Four heard that the mecha operator was from the Federation, he went to do more research . To his surprise, it was someone he knew .

“Since you asked, it must be someone I know . Someone I know in Mai'er Fa… it had to be the two of them . Is it Mu Chaoran?” Ling Lan thought for a moment and got her answer .

“Erm, Boss, how did you know?” Little Four felt frustrated .

“If I don't know this person, you wouldn't have asked me . You would have told me the name directly . ” Ling Lan understood Little Four very well . “Hence, it had to be someone I know . It can't be someone from 250 Ace Mecha Clan as they're all in the military . Unless someone has a mission…”

“However, since they sent people from the Flying Dragon Special Forces over, the Federation wouldn't send anyone to interrupt them . That means it can only be Mu Chaoran or Tang Ningyu . The name 'Dark Flame' is more suitable for Mu Chaoran . Based on Tang Ningyu's character, he would probably choose a name like Purple Lightning or Ray of Light . ” It had to be said that Ling Lan had a good understanding of these two people, although she had only interacted with them for one month .

Little Four said without any energy in his voice, “Yes, it's Mu Chaoran . However, didn't he come for a mission? Why is he partic.i.p.ating in this tournament?”

Ling Lan frowned . By right, he shouldn't enter this compet.i.tion .

“Maybe he was forced too . ” She remembered how they got trapped yesterday night . Their opponent didn't kill them but bring them away . She thought of something . “Mailer Fa's aim is them!”

It didn't make sense for Mailer Fa to invite Li Yinfei into their office area . Only this reason could explain everything .
