“…… Zheng Zhuo......"

A voice called to him in the distance.

“…… Wake up ......"

After entering the [Cyberpunk World], he has become accustomed to having someone call him next to his ear.

“…… Wake up......"

But this time, the sound is more direct and transparent.

It's not like it's coming out next to the ear.

It's more like ringing directly in the head.

Zheng Zhuo opened his eyes with all his might.

And then.

He saw a golden light.

……

Light.

Or light.

Countless rays of light surged, converging into turbulent currents one after another, passing through Zheng Zhuo's surroundings.

This is what he is familiar with, the Golden World.

(There was a firefight...... I was pressed to the ground...... This is...... ）”

(I made it out?) ）”

Zheng Zhuo raised his hand.

His hand became transparent and blurry.

He became a faint figure.

Success came out...... Is it?

There are light spots everywhere. The flares of light shifted, flowing with iridescent light.

He had never seen it before. He realized: this is what the Golden World really looks like.

At the same time, he also saw another figure beside him.

"You've stabilized...... You're awake. ”

The figure let out a sigh of relief.

The sound is still the same. Zheng Zhuo recognized her: it was a young woman.

"Did I make it out? Or am I dead? ”

He asked.

"I don't know. I haven't died. ”

The young woman said.

Zheng Zhuo was choked.

Fortunately, she continued.

"However, when you enter this state, you should be going back to the [real world]."

She pointed around.

Light flows around them. More light poured out, pushing them.

All the light is heading in the same direction. And they flowed in that direction. It's like riding a great river of light. They flow down from upstream.

Gradually, the golden light was turning white.

The front is like a hazy veil.

Some are running, some are exchanging fire, some are chasing.

“（！ ）”

That's the situation on the outside!

After experiencing two worlds, Zheng Zhuo saw the state of the [real world] again for the first time.

……

The [Heroes] and [Creators] sent out by the two earlier played a role. Thanks to them, the tide began to turn in favor of the participants of the subconscious world.

Zheng Zhuo saw Chen Qing in an OL costume get up. She supported at the door. And Wei Hao led the protest team led by Yan Futi, the mobile team led by Xiang Renjie, and the newly arrested candidates led by Chu Huairen rushed to [Area P].

Worthy of being a non-commissioned officer of an interstellar warband. He quickly understood the situation and gave steady and quick instructions.

And behind Chen Qing, the young woman who was dressed fashionably, wearing a red skirt and a big wavy perm also slowly sat up with her head up.

Zheng Zhuo had seen her corpse and was a little stunned by her appearance.

But he recognized her.

She is "deep".

If the virtual personality is also himself, they have fought side by side.

Shen is the only one who has not gone through the [Pure White World] and returned directly to the [Real World]. She was visibly flustered.

Fortunately, her neighborhood was Chen Qing. Chen Qing was explaining to her, and soon, Shen's state became much more stable.

In the field, only the middle-aged man who was a little fat and sloppy had not woken up.

(I don't know if he'll ever wake up.) ）”

Just when Zheng Zhuo was thinking this, the people led by Wei Hao ran in from the door.

Tao Tao was protected by everyone and stood at the end of the line. And the familiar faces in front of them are holding steel pipes and sticks in their hands.

Yan Futi and Xiang Renjie even took a gun each. I don't know which security officer snatched it from.

Zheng Zhuo saw all this.

He is not a third perspective in the air, nor is he a surveillance perspective.

He saw it all from the perspective of all the participants. In front of him, 12 screens floated in the golden space.

1 is black. It was the rebel who was still unconscious. 1 is golden, which is Zheng Zhuo's own.

There is also 1 that is very dim.

It's [Clown] Fu Xi. I couldn't see where she was now.

He saw what everyone could see.

And now, the remaining 9 screens are looking at a door at the same time.

That's the door to the Professor's location.

Wei Hao stood at the front. He kicked open the door that read "Secret Forbidden".

Through everyone's eyes, Zheng Zhuo saw the professor's appearance.

……

The innermost room is much smaller than everyone thinks.

Strictly speaking, it can't even be considered a room. The space of less than ten square meters is like a utility room, and only a long table is placed in it.

and a computer.

The computer's screen is on. Right in front of everyone.

It was an old, broken, off-white computer. It is a style that was popular around the year 2000. It is a model that has long been obsolete.

All the participants in the room were puzzled.

And far away in the [Golden World], Zheng Zhuo only heard a "buzz" in his head.

That computer is the same as in the pure white world!

"It's ......"

The young woman muttered beside him.

"That's what went out of the [subconscious world]. It's the same ...... as the one I use! No wonder it can also interfere and hack from the outside. ”

Zheng Zhuo suddenly thought of the flames and objects that flew out of his phone before he came in.

"Those are not hallucinations......"

Zheng Zhuo repeated.

"It's [ability]. Someone brought it out with [ability]! ”

"Fu Xi?"

"Nope. Definitely an earlier participant, a real 'professor'—"

"Where will he ......?"

“…… Village. ”

Zheng Zhuo looked at the screen.

His words stopped.

He saw a panic among the people.

For they saw a corpse sitting in the corner of the little utility room.

And the corpse was wearing a white coat, which had been dried for a long time.

……

Suddenly. The computer vibrates. Its display glows.

First fire, then lightning.

Energy spews out of the screen.

"Ahh

"Wow! …… What!? ”

The participants were not expected and rushed to dodge!

Then, there was the giant knife.

Green paws stick out of the display.

The computer seemed to have a premonition of something.

More and more things are being called into the real world!

……

And Zheng Zhuo and the young woman did not see this scene.

Just a second before this happened, a huge torrent hit the [Golden World].

Some unseen objects are passing through here!

Zheng Zhuo and the young woman were staring intently at what everyone was seeing, but suddenly, a force rushed in without warning.

It's like being beaten by a huge wave. The two are scattered!

They were knocked to the ground and staggered, rising and falling in the [Golden World].

"Oops...... bad!"

The impact became more and more violent, Zheng Zhuo shouted.

"We've got to go! Get out of here! ”

He looked at the end of the flow. There was a blinding white light.

"Hurry back to the real world! Fast! ”

The spots of light that filled the [Golden World] also began to expand because of this impact. They become one passage after another connecting the different subconscious worlds.

More unseen things poured out of these passages.

Zheng Zhuo struggled and flew towards the white light. Of course, the young woman didn't dare to slack off, she flew faster than Zheng Zhuo.

However.

That's when it happened.

Zheng Zhuo saw the young woman in front of him stop.

She looked back.

"Brother!?"

Zheng Zhuo heard the young woman shouting softly.

And then.

She suddenly flew in the opposite direction.

……
