Helmet out of control
After reading the thread with Hou Dongyan, He Jin went online to search for more information, including how the holographic helmet worked and who it was suitable for.
Fiendgod was not the first holographic game in the world. Before this, there were two holographic games in foreign countries: Beast Soul and Magic Tower. However, their operating mode was not a "helmet", but a "holographic capsule." Players needed to sit in a "game cabin" shaped like a capsule in order to enter the fully simulated game world.
However, because the technology and investment cost of holographic capsules were much higher than "helmets," they could only be produced in small batches. Therefore, even though holographic games existed, local players rarely came into contact with them.
However, in terms of operating principle, holographic helmets and holographic capsules were similar. Mythical Fiend's helmet also borrowed from foreign technology to some extent and improved upon their foundation. Therefore, He Jin found the opinions and feedback of some players who had experienced the "holographic capsules" on the game. Most of the information came from foreign websites, and there were many posts in English. If it weren't for his good English, he probably wouldn't have understood it.
One of the experienced players wrote an article to analyze the suitable audience for the full simulation game. It was the same as what was mentioned in the discussion thread. He wrote that the players needed to be extremely focused. If they were distracted, they would easily disconnect from the 'capsule' or cause confusion.
In addition, the game did not require the player to be athletic, but they needed to have excellent balance. This was because during the game, players would often do extreme sports that could not be done in real life, such as falling from a high altitude or diving into the deep sea. Players with high altitude phobia, deep sea phobia, or motion sickness would not be able to adapt to it.
He Jin thought about it. He was not afraid of heights, nor did he have motion sickness. He also did not have any adverse reactions. Therefore, he was relieved.
He looked through a bunch of miscellaneous stuff. This went on for two hours. He Jin even forgot about contacting Shang Huo.
Hou Dongyan dragged him out for dinner. On the way, the two excitedly talked about holographic games. Hou Dongyan suddenly said, "Brother Jin, I think you've changed recently."
He Jin was surprised. "Huh?"
"You didn't play games before, and you wouldn't talk about these things with me …" Hou Dongyan scratched his head and stopped.
He Jin: "You think I'm not right?"
Hou Dongyan: "No, no, no. I think you're pretty good this way. Anyway, don't blame me for leading you astray."
He Jin was puzzled. "What do you mean by 'you led me astray'?"
Hou Dongyan said, "Well, as the saying goes, one is marked by the company one keeps. I'm also afraid that I'm affecting you by playing games every day."
He Jin laughed and said, "When did you become so paranoid? Don't worry, I have fun playing games. "
Hearing this, Hou Dongyan heaved a sigh of relief. "Hehe, I also feel that you are much more interesting than before!"
He Jin was speechless. Was he a boring person in the past?
After dinner, He Jin returned to the dormitory. When he saw that it was seven o 'clock, he guessed that Shang Huo was already online. He couldn't hold it in any longer. He quickly drank his tea and went to the toilet. After that, he said to Hou Dongyan, "I'm going to play. Don't disturb me!"
Hou Dongyan: "…"
After everything was ready, He Jin sat up straight and put on his helmet. This time, he didn't see the login interface. He Jin stayed in the fog for a few seconds before he landed on the floating island with a system voice saying, "Welcome back to the World of Gods and Demons."
He couldn't wait to look at his friends list. Shang Huo's name was lit up in gold!
… Eh, Shang Huo changed his name? From "Merciless Shang Huo" to "Shang Huo"?
Just as He Jin stared at the name, Shang Huo suddenly descended from the sky and appeared in front of him …
This was completely different from seeing Shang Huo descend from the sky on the computer screen. This time, he was in the real world. Oh, no, it was like he was in the real world. He was seeing the person he wanted to see appear in front of him! It was like magic. He Jin was so scared that he took two steps back!
Shang Huo's appearance didn't change. He was still wearing the red robe with fire patterns. His facial features didn't change either. However, as he stood there, the aura he exuded seemed to be able to swallow people!
Shang Huo stared at him in surprise. He called out, "Ah Jin?"
He Jin suddenly remembered that he had changed his appearance and even set up his voice. His palms instantly became sweaty, and he nervously took another step back — it was a completely subconscious reaction.
He didn't know if Shang Huo could still recognize his current appearance. He hoped that Shang Huo could guess that he was a man, but he also didn't want Shang Huo to guess. He was afraid that Shang Huo would come to a sudden realization after he guessed something. He would be disappointed, disappointed … and something else. He Jin didn't know what he was feeling. Perhaps he was afraid that he would be hated and alienated.
He looked at Shang Huo, his heart beating wildly. He saw that Shang Huo had been staring at him for a long time. Other than surprise, there was also a hint of interest that He Jin couldn't understand. He became more and more terrified. Just as he was about to turn around and run, Shang Huo suddenly took two steps forward, squatted down, and hugged him!
He Jin was speechless.
Although it was just a game, the simulated character that was connected to the human brain allowed players to do such actions. Since his perception was close to half that of reality, He Jin really felt like he was being hugged!
And then, and then, not only that, Shang Huo even hugged him and kissed him on the cheek!
Even though the kissing was a little stiff, and perhaps the system still had some integrity and had set up some restrictions to not make the physical contact between the players too realistic, He Jin still felt like his face was being brushed against … What the hell, there was even a tactile sensation!
He Jin's worldview was completely shattered …
Shang Huo's muffled laughter traveled into his ears. The character in the game didn't have He Jin's physique, and his face was already red from the interaction earlier. His eyes were watery, and he looked pitiful as if he had been violated.
Shang Huo finally let go of him and looked down at him from above. He asked with a smile, "Why did you become like this?"
He Jin chose this appearance not only because the adult He Jin was not used to playing the game as a green shirt loli, but also because of Shang Huo. When he played with Shang Huo, he mainly chose this appearance. Shang Huo had waited for him for so many years, and he thought that this appearance would be what Shang Huo wanted to see.
He Jin thought about this, but before he could think of a more reserved way to say it, he heard himself blurt out, "I thought you would like it."
… Ah, why did he suddenly say it! Did he lose control of the helmet?
When Shang Huo heard his voice, he was stunned again. He said mischievously, "Do you want the whole world to think that I'm a pedophile?"
He Jin said awkwardly, "No …"
Shang Huo said, "But I quite like it when you're like this."
He Jin heaved a sigh of relief and blurted out again, "That's great!" This sentence was only an inward sigh! Why did he say it in such a happy tone?)
Shang Huo smiled and asked, "You bought the helmet?"
He Jin did not hide his joy. "Yes! I only found out about it yesterday. I'm really too lucky! I wanted to tell you as soon as I got the helmet, but I felt that it would be better to tell you directly after I got it … I came up in the afternoon, and you weren't there … "
He Jin rambled on and on, and he could not stop. He was like a completely different person from his usual quiet self!
Shang Huo listened patiently and laughed along with him. However, when he saw the occasional twisted expression on the other party's face, it was really strange.
Halfway through, the shota boy squatted down with a broken expression. He covered his face, shrunk his shoulders, and said in an extremely aggrieved voice, "I don't want to talk so much, I don't want to become a chatterbox …"
Shang Huo replied seriously, "Even if you become a chatterbox, I won't despise you. Since you want to say it, why do you have to hide it?"
The shota was going crazy. "I wasn't like this when I came online in the afternoon! I thought it was quite easy to control! Is there a problem with the helmet? "
Shang Huo paused and said, "It's said that when a holographic player is frightened for the first time in the game, they will lose control of the helmet for a period of time. This is a normal phenomenon … Did I scare you just now?"
The shota felt wronged and said, "I, I, I … a little …" (← Shut up!) "Why did you suddenly hug me, and kiss me …" (← Shut up!!!)
Shang Huo put his fist against his lips and finally could not help but laugh.
He Jin, who was on the verge of breaking down, used the fastest speed to calm his fluctuating emotions. When the "him" who had lost control finally stopped nagging, he was too ashamed to look at Shang Huo anymore.
