Chapter 790 - Truth of the Game (1/2)
Roland was examined by all kinds of equipment for three hours in the lab. Then, a basic report came out in half an hour.
“He can be seen by the naked eye, but can’t be captured by any of the equipment. By estimation, we can see him only because he wants to be seen. I’ve checked the camera. He’s not in the pupils of any observers. So, his image is more like a piece of information that’s directly projected into our minds.”
“There’s no dispersion of electromagnetic power or radiation.”
“He doesn’t cause any object interaction when he moves. The air is not taking any pressure.”
“He doesn’t have any weight. To be more exact, he’s not influenced by gravity.”
“He’s almost identical to what a soul is rumored to be!”
All the researchers were excited when they read the report.
“So, the soul was always real, except that we have never been able to observe it?” Su Minluo, in her underwear, had glowing eyes. “It’s completely beyond our imagination.”
“No, it is not.” The gray-haired old scientist said with a smile, “Our equipment is still too bad at observation and can only see about 5% of the matter and energy in the universe. We couldn’t have achieved this without the major breakthrough that Comrade Huang Wenwei made in the studies of mysterious matter and energy.”
Su Minluo nodded. She was happy that the old scientist said that.
Talking about the soul sounded superstitious and would shake their confidence in science.
However, the old scientist had managed to include the soul in the category of science.
Roland saw the report of his current form too. A moment later, he asked the director, “Can I go back to my real body?”.
“Of course.” The director nodded. “We won’t force you to do anything, but are you in a hurry? If not, can we study you for a couple of more hours?”
“I feel that I’m weakening,” said Roland casually.
The moment he said that, the director said, “Then you’d better go back to your body immediately.”
Whether or not it was the truth, many people had heard the theory that the soul couldn’t be separated from the body for too long.
Roland returned to his dormitory, followed by a lot of people.
When the virtual cabin was opened, Roland’s transparent soul, which had golden hair and blue eyes, dispersed into countless spots of light and merged into his body.
Very soon, Roland opened his eyes as everybody expected.
He sat up in the virtual cabin.
A lot of researchers looked at him.
Su Minluo was the first to ask, “How do you feel?”
“Very good.” Roland slowly floated in the air, with a gentle breeze around him. “I feel that I’m similar to myself in the game.” Hiss!
Everybody was shocked.
Everybody in the base was aware of Roland’s performance in the game. That was a guy who could easily throw out nuclear bombs.
His battle against the World Tree and the dragon god had been recorded and replayed in the base again and again. It was said that the national army was even considering doing drills with Roland as the opposing force, so that it would be prepared when it was faced with an enemy who had superpowers just like him.
Roland had already been unbelievable enough, yet he had got even stronger?
At this moment, the director suddenly squeezed through the crowd and came in.
He gave Roland a piece of paper and said, “I just received a phone call from my boss. Roland, you must go to this place immediately.”
There were three numbers on the paper that he gave Roland.
Were they longitudes and latitudes?
The coordinates suggested that it was a location in the central-northern part of the country.
Stunned for a moment, Roland asked, “Should I go right now?”
“Yes,” replied the director quickly. “The call was from the top of the chain of command. I’ve confirmed their identity. It can’t be fake.”
Roland nodded.
Although there were no spatial coordinates, he had the longitudes and latitudes to help with localization. Besides, Roland was already a Demigod, and his understanding of space was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
That was why he knew where he was going to after a quick glance at the longitudes and latitudes.
“Then I’m leaving.” Roland waved at his colleagues.
Half a second later, his body emitted blue light and vanished into thin air.
Everybody was dazed for a moment.
Su Minluo asked in disappointment, “Will Director Huang come back?”
The director heaved a long sigh. “Probably not.”
At this moment, Roland had just jumped out of the spatial channel and was floating in the air.
It was the middle of the night. Nobody was present in the wilderness.
He looked around and caught sight of a dent in the woods down below. A platform appeared, and someone was waving at him from there.
It was Ma Huajun. Roland landed.
