Chapter 254: The Full dive pods arrive. (1/2)
Rudra logged out of the VR helmet , he took a shower and the moment he closed his eyes under the water , scenes from the game he played went through his mind.
This was the problem with VR technology , the bloodlust of mankind that was laid to rest by modern society. The primal instincts that were gone by living in a cultural society , were slowly being brought back after killing beasts and men alike in the VR game day after day.
Though the issue not very evident currently in the first year of the game , the crime rate for brutal physical assaults saw a spike in the world this year.
Ancient sports like hunting began to gain popularity , and swords and daggers started to be produced in masses again.
The rich preffered the actually forged weapons made by very skilled artists , while the poor purchased the factory mass produced weapons.
People wanted to get the satisfying feel of using the blade in the real world as they felt inside the virtual world.
Many self claimed all knowing youtubers made bullshit videos about how to train in real life with the sword to improve in the virtual world.
Rudra knew that this was partially true , but more false. The truth was that training in the virtual world was 3 times more effective to learn anything , anything at all.
As at that time only your brain would be functioning , it would fully soak every sensation , every movement and commit it to memory. Learning swordsmanship in the VR world , one could become an actual master.
Rudra's physique had improved after playing Omega , although he rarely exercised , the calory consumption on his body by his brain alone was terryfingly high. Little by little , his muscles now knew the sensation of kicking someone's shield , while his arms knew how to pierce their hearts when they are thrown offbalance.
Never used it in a real fight , but every sensation was 100% inside him. And that feeling would only increase after the purchase he would make today at midnight.
Cuber corporation would on its online portal release the Full dive VR pods , with 99.9% neural sync rate , it was a massive upgrade from the 95% sync rate helmets , the pods would feel exactly the same as the original body , the difference between real and virtual was only going to blur going forward.
Cuber was only going to release 10,000 units today , and Rudra had been prepared to buy them all , in his previous life they had been silently released without anyone knowing about it. However they still sold out by 12 :30 , as cubers online site to buy VR helmets saw over 100,000 people traffic everyday. When the news about the VR Pods was out , it was sold-out in 10 minutes.
