Chapter 246: Feature (1/2)

Alex and Hannah were back in the room.

”Umm… you wanna try it first?” Hannah asked after seeing Alex's enchanted face.

”No, sister. It's yours, you should get in,” Alex said.

”Stop trying to act nice and just get in,” Hannah said as she pushed him towards the capsule.

Alex stopped rejecting the offer and got into the capsule. The suction cups worked very nicely and the capsule did no wobbling as expected.

He slowly sat down inside and then laid inside it. It inside had its own mattress and pillow to make the players feel comfortable. It was a snug fit for him.

”What do we do now?” he asked.

”Um, try closing the lid? I'll see if there are some manuals somewhere,” Hannah said and left the room. Alex did as she said and lied back down before closing the lid to the capsule.

As soon as he did that, his mind started feeling heavy, and soon, he logged into the game.

He opened his eyes and got up from the bed back in the room inside the hotel. He had successfully logged in without any notifications from the system.

He immediately put up his hands to block the intense light coming from the window. There was a loud noise right next to him. He turned around to see that Wan Li was reading his book in a very loud voice.

Also, he felt like he had a massive fever right now with how hot he felt. 'Is that me or is something on fire?' he wondered. There was also a weird smell in the air that he just couldn't put a finger on.

Wan Li seemed to have noticed him moving and very slowly lifted his head. He then said something quite incomprehensible.

”O-H-H-E-Y-B-R-O-T-H-E-R-Y-U-Y-O-U-A-R-E-A-W-A-K-E.” Wan Li spoke so slowly yet so loudly that Alex couldn't really understand what he meant.

Alex realized just then what actually was happening. Everything happening right now hinted that his Focus Mode was on.

The bright light, the hot environment, the slowness of time, the weird smell, and the loudness of the sound we're all the things that happened when his focus mode was active.

He quickly tried to cancel his focus mode, but he couldn't. 'Huh? What's happening?' he wondered. He tried to cancel the focus mode once more, but nothing was happening.

Not sure what was happening, he wondered if it was a bug of the game or something. This wasn't a normal Focus mode either. All of his senses were on another level when compared to the normal focus mode.

”A-R-E-Y-O-U-O-K-A-Y-B-R-O-T-H-E-R-Y-U,” Wan Li spoke once more. Alex looked at him and slowly did a gesture to inform him that it was okay. He didn't want to tip him off that something was weird.

'Damn, maybe it really is a bug. I should leave and check it online,” Alex thought and immediately logged out.
