"I'm in, I'm in. I've finally made it in."
At this moment, almost everyone is watching the same program, a live broadcast. Yes, it's a live broadcast, broadcasting entry into the virtual world. The key is that it's not just any ordinary person being broadcast.
These are the first batch of applicants to enter, all of whom have already died in reality.
That's right, these people had completely given up hope on their physical conditions, and some were so old they couldn't even get up. Now, these people have directly given up on life and entered this place.
In recent years, due to the prosperity of martial artists, no one believes the soul to be non-existent anymore.
In accordance with the higher-ups' request, Zhao Guang connected his core to the TV station's signal, allowing the live broadcast to be watched here. However, it can only be seen on CCTV for now; other places still lack the signal.
The people at CCTV never thought they would become globally famous in such a manner.
At this moment, almost everyone worldwide is watching the live broadcast, all watching this TV station.
Originally, some countries might not have had access to this channel, but now it's been resolved by technicians. Even people in war-torn areas have strangely paused, with no one causing trouble at this critical moment.
To cause chaos now would mean making enemies with everyone.
However, in many places, they didn't have synchronous translation, so they couldn't understand, which posed some challenges.
Those who entered the virtual world were now lively and exuberant, like monkeys. Even the most reserved people were now overjoyed beyond belief.
"Can I ask how you're feeling right now?"
A few journalists entered at the same time, though just a few, serving as temporary correspondents. Among them was one person who was also one of the first to enter here, only with a professional identity as a journalist.
"Great, there's nothing wrong with my body at all. I could barely move before."
"Young man, you were just about to stop moving, but I was bedridden for two years, on the brink of death."
Not far away, an old man approached, no, more like flipped over halfway. It's hard to imagine such a situation with his aged face.
Outside, at such an old age, even with a healthy body, such an action would definitely be uncomfortable.
But in this place, everyone is exceedingly happy now.
The surrounding environment is barren, but that's okay. Compared to the weakness and suffering of the body, compared to the despair of awaiting death, this little hardship is nothing.
Wasn't it said that it wouldn't be long before this place turned into a game world?
No matter how realistic it is, the experience in the game will definitely be completely different from reality.
"Where am I? Why am I like this?"
At this moment, a bewildered middle-aged man looked around, unable to grasp what had happened.
A person beside him quickly stepped forward and said, "Hello, you had an accident before, and it was impossible to save you. Fortunately, we needed subjects for experimentation, so we brought your soul here."
The man's eyes gradually cleared, "I remember now, I think something hit me."
People around looked at this guy with envy; if not for this, he wouldn't have had the chance to enter so soon.
A lifespan of over a thousand years—before the game is complete, many people might not get the opportunity to enter.
Speaking of which, in recent years Zhao Guang's pharmaceutical company has developed numerous things, resolving most illnesses. This guy was unlucky to have been hit on the head.
If his luck wasn't good, he would have died instantly and wouldn't have made it to the hospital.
Oddly enough, he was sent there, clinging to life, and happened to have the opportunity for this experiment.
At this moment, this person's family watched the televised images, moved to tears. This isn't some technologically fabricated illusion; this is real.
Because only family members would know the little quirks and habits of their kin.
These things couldn't possibly be mimicked, at least not completely. Many habits are performed subconsciously, even unknowingly.
"Wait a minute, comrade, I want to ask why I still look this elderly."
This was a foreign tester. Speaking of which, the foreign individuals in the first batch to enter were not ordinary people. If not for substantial donations and significant contributions to their countries, they wouldn't have had the opportunity.
They are concerned about why they remain so old.
Despite feeling much younger physically, they didn't appreciate their aged appearance.
The person in charge of giving explanations quickly responded, "Everyone looks like this upon entry; their appearance mirrors their external appearance, with no significant difference inside."
"The specific variance lies in your self-perception; if you firmly believed you were young before entering, you would look young upon entry."
The crowd suddenly understood, not expecting such a reason.
After all, the appearance of the soul is closely tied to one's self-awareness.
"So, how can I look younger? It's hard to enjoy life like this."
The individual quickly added, "Once the various supplementary programs in this world are completed, there will be rejuvenating medications available. Of course, these only make you look younger as lifespan isn't something the program can alter."
"Additionally, it's said that once the upgrade system is complete, anyone can modify their appearance upon reaching a certain level."
"Wait, did you say modify appearance, can I change race? I'd like to be an angel."
People around wore strange expressions. Did this guy not want to remain human anymore? However, upon considering it, if one could change and return freely, many of them had peculiar ideas as well.
"Uh, I'll mention your request to the higher-ups."
The individual didn't know what to say, but soon found relief as others pulled him aside to ask other questions.
Even after arriving in this world, people were intensely curious about it.
After entering, they needed to plan for their future, as this would be their main world from now on, and external matters would become irrelevant, making it important to develop well here.
The people in front of the TV were equally focused, with many taking notes.
