Chapter 273: Not Hungry (2/2)
Alex too went back to his room and decided to log out. He opened his eyes and instinctively reached for the helmet, but stopped when he realized his arms couldn't come to his head.
'Oh yeah, capsule,' he thought and instead pushed open the lid on top. The door opened and Alex finally walked out.
He looked at the time and realized that it was 7 pm. It had been about 7 hours since he had eaten anything, and yet he was nowhere near hungry.
'Damn, this is really good. I can't feel like I lost energy while in the game at all,' he thought. Normally, when he got out of the game, he would either feel hungry or would need to go to the bathroom. But now, he could feel neither.
This was a truly advanced technology that he didn't dare try to understand.
Alex went to the bathroom to freshen up a bit and then went to the kitchen. Hannah was already there with little food on her plate.
”Get yourself some food,” she said and continued eating.
Alex went ahead and got himself a load of food but realized that he wasn't feeling hungry at all. 'Is this the aftereffect of the capsule usage?' he wondered and served himself very little.
It took him no time to finish eating the food, but not before Hannah was done with hers. They washed the dishes together and Alex finally returned back to the game.
He went back to the capsule and opened the lid before getting back into it. He laid inside and closed his eyes and before he knew it, he was logged back in.
Logging in this time was very smooth compared to the last two. While he was bombarded with the different enhanced senses, he was already used to them and could thus handle himself better.
He looked around and saw that Wan Li was already focused back on his books. Alex thought about asking for something to read but decided against it. Using other people's research to learn didn't seem like a good idea on a topic as experimental as this.
Who knew, maybe he could come up with different answers, and reading Wan Li's notes would only stop him from taking a different approach with his experiments.
Instead, he decided to simply cultivate and prepare for tomorrow's competition. Tomorrow was the Perfect themed competition. Perhaps the most important one of all.
So, he decided to waste no time. He called out Pearl and kept him in his robes. With a single word, Pearl started cultivating and numerous cuts appeared along Alex's body.
It hurt a lot more than yesterday. 'Is it because the cuts are more severe or because of my new senses?' Alex wondered, but couldn't come up with an answer.
He then took out the Spirit Cleansing Lily. It hadn't worked the last few times, but he wasn't going to give up now. As such, he held the flower and slowly started cultivating.
And before he knew it, he was deep asleep.
