There must be something wrong with me

Chapter 189: Security Settings and Overrides_3


But in the time before the Extraordinary Era, with his kind of Constitution and Fighting Memory, he was already a top-notch expert.

And this evening, three minutes after the news was announced.

"I'm heading out first!"

Just like before, he was leaving a small company with only five people.

But just as he reached the elevator on the floor, he heard everyone around him excitedly discussing 'virtual reality technology.'

'What's this?'

He still didn't know what was going on because he rarely looked at his phone while walking.

Moreover, he had just gotten off work after finishing a call with a difficult client.

Right now, he only wanted to shut off his phone.

But hearing so many people talking about it, and mentioning it's official news, he became curious and took out his phone from his pocket and opened the news on it.

Just at a glance, upon seeing the news content and some Virtual World scenes of 'doomsday.'

He too became as excited as everyone around him.

'This... this really is a good place to relax...'

That was his first thought.

But to get a spot, there were some conditions.

You either have to live in the Extraordinary Homeland, and have permission to buy a 'virtual chip.'

Or have an 'Extraordinary Merit Card,' which allows you to apply for purchase.

Once purchased, the government will arrange temporary lodgings for the buyer in the Extraordinary Homeland.

He had heard of the name Extraordinary Homeland.

Apart from being the homeland of pioneers, it was also a world center where every inch of land was precious.

Even though his monthly income of five thousand Federation Coins was already quite a bit, compared to the Extraordinary Homeland, it was just enough to buy a street snack.

Seventy coins could buy over seventy skewers of lamb.

As for the virtual chip, the official price wasn't expensive.

People with an Extraordinary Card only needed ten thousand.

Residents of Extraordinary Homeland needed ten million.

It's completely polarized.

Liang Haoyi saw the price, thought for a moment, then dialed a number he hadn't called in a long time.

When the call connected.

Liang Haoyi left the elevator area and went to an empty fire escape,

"Dad, can I borrow your Extraordinary Card? I want to buy something."

His dad worked as an advanced staff member on large-scale superconductor projects in the province.

But typically, his dad often traveled for work, frequently going to other places for study.

Liang Haoyi also entertained clients daily or went to the gym after work.

The father and son both had their work and matters, so they rarely contacted each other.

So when Liang Haoyi asked for something this time, he felt a bit awkward.

It was like only remembering his dad when he needed something.

Especially for something like an Extraordinary Card, which generally could not be lent out, his dad treasured it greatly.

"Dad..."

At this moment, seeing his dad remained silent, Liang Haoyi timidly called again.

"Ah, my apprentice had some issue just now." His dad's voice came through a moment later, "What did you just say?"

"It's..." Facing the peeling walls around him, Liang Haoyi, after mustering much courage, spoke again: "The Extraordinary Card... can I borrow it?"

"You want to buy a chip?" His dad directly said, and with a smile, "I've already bought it for you and had the staff send it home.

If you're off work, get home quickly.

Also, I sent back my Extraordinary Card.

Spending in the Extraordinary Homeland is substantial.

You can use the card to eat for free at official restaurants.

If you want to buy ingredients to cook, you can go to the official supermarket.

I won't give you money, fearing you'll spend recklessly there, finishing it in just a few meals."

"Dad..." Liang Haoyi was momentarily stunned, overwhelmed by a bittersweet feeling.

He now truly understood what it meant to have a father who usually doesn't pay attention but always comes through when it matters.

...

That evening, after returning home.

Receiving the chip and glasses packed in an alloy box, Liang Haoyi used his dad's Extraordinary Card to book the day after the day after tomorrow's 'suspension train ticket.'

The reason it was the day after the day after tomorrow was that the recent days were all sold out.

As for high-speed trains, ordinary trains, and airplanes, all tickets in the upcoming half-month were sold out.

The virtual and reality technology of the Extraordinary Homeland attracted countless expectations and arrivals.

Even those without devices wanted to check it out.

Because on the day the virtual world opens in half a month, the scenes inside the virtual world will be broadcast on screens in every street of the Extraordinary Homeland.

Although it will also be broadcast online and on TV stations, it couldn't compare to seeing it in person.

Watching the virtual broadcast in the Extraordinary Homeland might not be different from online, but these people still felt they participated.

That's what they thought.

When watching some previous game matches, Liang Haoyi also liked to attend in person, watching the big screen directing the broadcast, and could understand this feeling.

Perhaps it was about experiencing the atmosphere?

He couldn't articulate it, but he just went along with it.

...

Three days later, in the morning.

He arrived at the suspension train station in the province.

Overall, this station wasn't much different from a regular train station.

But there weren't many people near the station.

Because without an Extraordinary Card, the ticket cost was two thousand each.

Except for a year ago when it was newly built and many visited for the experience, generally not many would ride.

Of course, it's not too many or too few, at least ensuring each train was basically full.

With continuous global development, everyone's incomes had risen.

Like Liang Haoyi, with a monthly income of five thousand, it was just average.

Industries like heavy construction, retail, and martial arts-related service industries.

Monthly incomes of thirty to forty thousand weren't just dreams.

Liang Haoyi liked to relax and practice martial arts, so he joined a small company.

But even with his monthly five thousand, with an Extraordinary Card, the ticket was only two hundred each.

Moreover, Liang Haoyi heard his dad say, in the future, when the trains became more widespread, those with an Extraordinary Card might travel for free.

Common people's ticket prices would also be greatly reduced.

...

Once aboard the train.

The overall design of the suspension train was also similar to high-speed trains.

But glancing around at the passengers, he found many were either spirited Martial Artists or elegantly dressed elite individuals.

Compared to them, he indeed seemed quite ordinary.

'It seems among all going to the Extraordinary Homeland this time, I really appear to lose face...'

He shook his head, dispelling the thoughts, and took his seat according to his ticket number.

Then, as the announcement of the train's departure came from the speakers.

Looking at the outside's retreating scenery, he realized the train seemed to be slowly moving.

The supreme stability of the suspension train made the passengers unable to feel any movement.

And in the next second.

The view outside retreated at an even greater speed, gradually turning into a blur.

Liang Haoyi didn't feel any sensation of acceleration, yet the speed had already reached 900 kilometers per hour.
