By the time Hao Ren got home, it was already evening after he spent a lot of time shopping outside.
Lily was the first to greet him as soon as he entered the house. The husky maiden's tail was wagging so fast that it looked like a shadow. She was carrying a bulging travel bag. "Mr. Landlord, let's go to bed now!"
Before Hao Ren could stand still, Lily's words startled him. He pressed down hard on the canine maiden's head to stop her from licking him. "Calm down, can't you be a little more reserved?"
"How is it? Can I bring people in? " Vivian dragged Lily aside by the collar as she looked at Hao Ren. Her voice was calm, but the faint sense of expectation in her eyes could not be hidden.
"No problem. I've brought back five hibernation pods. They'll allow us all to enter The Plane of Dreams and prevent us from accidentally leaving." Hao Ren said as he looked for a space in the living room to put the five coffins. "… Not enough space."
"Hibernation pods? Where? "Lily jumped up and circled Hao Ren twice.
Hao Ren grinned. "Let me show you a magic trick …"
As he said, he stretched his hand in front of Lily. A distorted light screen flashed in the air and a bag of bread suddenly appeared in his hand. Lily's eyes widened. "Wow! What's this? "
"A Dimensional Pocket!" Hao Ren threw the bread to Lily. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and said proudly, "We have a protagonist's suit now! We can fit four or five thousand white-bearded old men in the Dimensional Pocket. "
Lily and Vivian were amazed. Even Wuyue, who was playing with the little mermaid at the table, came over with the pot. Hao Ren was like a big kid who just got a new toy. He demonstrated how to use the Dimensional Pocket to store things. Lily handed her travel bag to him. "Here, you'll be in charge of carrying the luggage."
Vivian ran to the sofa like a gust of wind and carried a suitcase over. "Oh, mine too."
Nangong Wuyue put down the pot and ran back to her room to retrieve two big bags. "Mine too."
In the end, it was Y 'zaks who was kind-hearted. He glanced at Hao Ren, who was dumbfounded, and smiled. "I don't have any luggage to bring."
Just as Hao Ren was about to nod, he saw Y 'zaks pointing at the TV in the living room. "Bring it along, I'm bored."
"There's no signal in The Plane of Dreams!" Hao Ren finally jumped up in anger. He then pointed at himself and said, "My Dimensional Pocket is such a great thing... How did it become a luggage bag? What happened to the cool skills of the protagonist? "
The four tenants in the living room said in unison, "What else can we do without luggage?"
Hao Ren was speechless.
He decided that in the future, he would never expect to be in the limelight again. With these guys at home, even if he brought back a Frostmourne from the Space Administration, the first thing they would think of would be shaved ice in the summer …
"If you want to find a place... why not put it in the basement?" Just as Hao Ren was worrying about where to put the five coffins, Vivian suddenly remembered that the place where she usually slept was very spacious. "The basement is so big, and other than a small warehouse, it's my sleeping place. I don't have any furniture, so it's empty."
Hao Ren nodded and said, "Then put it in the basement."
They were all in a hurry to see what was rare, so they all went to the basement. Fortunately, when Hao Ren planned the house, he smacked his head and made the basement extraordinarily spacious. The warehouse-sized space was big enough to store a lot of things. At present, the place where Vivian slept was only a small bed, a low table, two chairs and a small cabinet. It was perfect for her identity as a poor girl. Hao Ren always felt that such an environment was too shabby and wanted to at least add a sofa and a TV or something, but Vivian politely declined. She was satisfied with her current living conditions, and watching TV with everyone in the living room was an unimaginable luxury for her. So, the basement was as empty as when she first moved in.
Now there was something new in the empty space: five brand-new silver-white coffin cabins were lined up side by side opposite Vivian's bed, making the overly empty space finally look a little "plentiful".
But to use five coffins to fill the space … the atmosphere was really scary.
After Hao Ren put the cabins in place, he retreated to the door to take a look. It felt like he was standing in a morgue. Not only did the cabins look like coffins, but they were also painted in the cool colors of the big freezer in the morgue. Coupled with the cold, lifeless mechanical feel and the crystal cross on the lid, if anyone were to turn off the lights, they would be able to film Ju-on without any special effects.
"… Isn't it a little inappropriate to put this thing in your sleeping place?" Hao Ren glanced at Vivian, thinking that no matter how good-tempered the vampire maiden was, she could not bully Vivian like that. Who would want to put a coffin in their sleeping place? "If you don't want to, we can move to the empty rooms upstairs. There should be no problem with two to three in each room. There are still four empty rooms upstairs."
However, Vivian shook her head carelessly and said, "It's okay. It looks quite atmospheric. It reminds me of where I used to live."
Only then did Hao Ren remember that the maiden had not only slept in a coffin, but also often spent the night in a graveyard. To her, having a circle of coffins around her was like reminiscing about her hometown.
The MDT floated in front of Hao Ren and showed him how to operate the cabins. Just like what Raven 23333 had said, these things were surprisingly easy to use. The feature of supporting mental command input allowed almost all of the imperial civilian equipment to be operated by a fool. It probably was not so easy for the more advanced military and professional equipment. After studying for a few minutes, Hao Ren knew how to set the relevant parameters and understood the basic functions of the equipment. What was even more satisfying was that each of the cabins had a high level of intelligence and could support the MDT's connection. Even if a newbie like Hao Ren made some mistakes, there was no need to worry about a "medical accident".
Hao Ren was now curious how Raven 12345 and Raven 23333 managed to use the equipment that even Lil Pea could master. Crazy Goddess above, there was only one button in the cabin and Raven 12345 pressed the wrong button!
While he was cursing in his heart, he was connected to the MDT and shared his thoughts with it. The MDT swayed its body and explained in a lazy tone, "The reason why the Ravens can't use technological equipment is not because they can't remember the operating procedures, but because they're used to doing unnecessary things. Once they press the button, they can just wait, but they still want to use an arcane spell to speed up the process. Then, bam, bam — every Raven starts with 'I think I know how to use it' and ends with 'I feel like I have a big advantage'. All the Ravens in the empire are no exception … Maybe it's because they all come from the same template."
Hao Ren looked at the MDT in shock. "Can this information be discussed publicly?"
"Yes, you can. You can see it on the Data Network. The earliest post has been at the top for more than two thousand years."
Hao Ren was in disbelief. "Isn't this blasphemy? Don't the powerful goddesses care? "
"The post was posted by His Majesty the Emperor."
Hao Ren was speechless.
Meanwhile, Lily had been studying the coffins for a long time. She held a plug board and asked curiously, "Where's the plug?"
"You brought me a 220V socket to power such a high-end thing?" Hao Ren flicked Lily's ear. "The hibernation pod is self-powered. It's powered by a miniature reactor in an alternate dimension. As long as it doesn't break, it'll last until the end of the world. Come on, stop studying. I'll tell you what to look out for. "
Hao Ren clapped his hands. Lily, Nangong Wuyue, Vivian and Y 'zaks immediately lined up according to their sizes. Hao Ren pointed at the coffins and explained, "These things can slow down the body's physiological activity to the point of almost freezing. So, we can stay in The Plane of Dreams for a long time without worrying about starvation. As for the principle of bringing people in, it's mental synchronization. These coffins — hibernation pods can synchronize our minds. Then, with me as a' guide ', I'll bring you into The Plane of Dreams. In other words, you'll enter my dream first, and then I'll enter The Plane of Dreams. So, don't run too far from me. If you're too scattered, you might leave the service area."
Lily made a ruckus. "So, you're using wifi, right?"
Hao Ren glared at the maiden. Then, he remembered something. "Oh yeah, Lily, let me ask you a question. Do you know how to put teeth in a dog?"
(I was disconnected for a while in the afternoon. Now I'm back.)
