Chapter 167 - 167 Haiqin City
167 Haiqin City
The neural connection device began to operate, and a metallic login interface appeared in front of them.
It wasn’t Master Sihan’s first time playing a holographic game, but the one developed by Guo Miao was very different from the ones he had seen.
In other holographic games, most of the visual angles would be distorted, constantly reminding you that you were not really in the game world.
However, in Guo Miao’s game, there was no distortion of the camera. The scene displayed in front of Master Sihan was the same size as the objects in real life.
Master Sihan couldn’t help but sigh. Guo Miao’s holographic game technology was really superb.
After Master Sihan chose his character and image, he entered the game.
When he entered the game world, Master Sihan was even more shocked. He was now completely in the world of cyberpunks. Here lay the first map of Star Empire: Haiqin city.
“Master Sihan, you’ve registered your number.” Guo Miao’s voice came from behind Sihan.
“Is this your avatar? You look beautiful. You’re so cool.” Sihan turned around and sized up Guo Miao’s image.
Guo Miao’s in-game avatar was a young girl wearing glasses and a research uniform.
At this time, the scene in Haiqin unfolded behind Guo Miao. Sihan’s mouth was wide open in surprise.
The scene in front of him was the cyberpunk world he had imagined. The sky was dark, and all kinds of neon lights illuminated the entire city.
The glass windows of the buildings were playing the images of electronic singers. Various aircraft and racing motorcycles shuttled through the city, decorating it into a competition ground, making people’s hearts beat and their adrenaline soar.
“You’re a genius, Guo Miao. I never thought I’d be able to see such a realistic cyber world, ” Sihan said.
“You’re too kind. Let’s start playing the game now.”
Guo Miao’s game had a high degree of freedom and was an open-world game. It required the player to find missions and stories in the cyberpunk world.
Of course, in their free time, they could also participate in some competitions.
For example, that night there was a race in Haiqin. Everyone would be using their own flying devices to compete. Whoever circled Haiqin first would be the final winner. The winner would receive a set of advanced equipment.
Although Sihan wasn’t young anymore, he still had the heart of a child. He quickly signed up for the underground race in Haiqin and even invited Guo Miao and Sheng Guang.
The three of them gathered at the underground race track.
The underground racing arena had a completely different scenery with a cold concrete floor and retro water pipes, as well as some old objects and shops.
Artificial limbs and cold weapons were hung in the shops, and people with cigarettes in their mouths were exchanging white capsules and golden chips. This was an underground city full of desire and money.
Master Sihan’s eyes lit up. “The setup and original artist of this underground city are amazing. I want to get to know him. Mindy, can you give me his contact information?”
Guo Miao laughed but didn’t say anything. Sheng Guang, who was beside her, spoke up, “Teacher, you don’t know yet, do you? The original art and modeling of this underground city were all done by Guo Miao.”
Compared to the world on the surface which was filled with a sense of technology, the construction of this underground world required more foundation, an understanding of art, and a comprehension of life.
Master Sihan gave a thumbs-up in his heart for Guo Miao to be able to reach this level at such a young age.
The race began, and the three of them flew their respective aircraft on the road.
It was still the internal testing period for employees, and there were fewer than 30 players participating in the competition. Guo Miao glanced at the IDs and saw that they were all employees.
There was only one ID that was a little unfamiliar. It only had a single word: ‘I’. It was very difficult to register an ID with only one letter.
In their game, they didn’t allow people to have the same name, so the person who registered a single-word id must be the first person to enter the game.
‘Maybe it’s an investor,’ Guo Miao thought.
She increased the speed of the aircraft and galloped on the track.
Sheng Guang was unwilling to fall behind and followed them. The others were left far behind by the two of them.
Soon, Sheng Guang and Guo Miao took first and second place.
Master Sihan wasn’t very good at driving this new toy, so he simply gave up the race and began to enjoy the scenery in Haiqin.
