Chapter 2 The first room(1/2)
Danger!
Two large bold characters in red font were displayed on the goggles, and Li Zheng broke out in a cold sweat.
"This...a randomly selected room actually shows danger?!"
Li Zheng took a few steps back, farther away from the door. At the same time, he felt a little lucky in his heart.
"Fortunately, fortunately, I haven't swiped my card in front of the door, otherwise I would have to bite the bullet now."
"I didn't expect that this goggles can even detect the information in the next room. Now it can only detect the degree of danger. When I upgrade to a high level in the future, will I be able to detect the specific items in the room?"
"Props with this kind of function are considered to be at a heaven-defying level in the matrix, right?"
"Awesome, my Di Bao!"
Li Zheng gave the treasure chest a thumbs up and turned to look at the other metal doors.
Left: empty (shown in gray)
Right: Security (shown in green)
Back: Security (shown in dark blue)
Above the head: Danger (displays orange-red)
Ground: Danger (shown in red)
"Empty? Does it mean there is nothing in this room?"
Li Zheng glanced to the left and stopped paying attention, "But what does this color mean?"
There are two safe rooms, one is green and the other is dark blue.
In addition, there are two dangerous rooms, which are displayed in different colors.
"I can understand orange and red, maybe because of the different levels of danger, but safe rooms... In the games I played before, blue was better than green, but will the settings here be the same?"
Li Zheng didn't dwell too much on it. He chose the green safe room and swiped his card, "Let's explore it and you'll know, right?"
When entering this kind of game world for the first time, all settings are unknown, and you can only get the answers after personal exploration.
No one stipulates that blue is necessarily better than green. If you judge based on your past experience in playing games, you may have cerebral palsy.
"Uzi~"
A sound like a hydraulic press sounded, and the metal door slowly opened, revealing a laser-like film behind the door.
The film was not transparent, so Li Zheng had no way to observe the specific contents of the next room.
To be cautious, Li Zheng first searched for two gray-quality stones on the ground, holding one large and one small in his hands.
"Let's explore the path first."
Li Zheng came to the film and threw the small stone in his hand, which penetrated directly.
I listened for a moment, but no sound came through.
"Tch, are the sounds even blocked?"
Li Zheng curled his lips. It seemed that even if someone tried like him, they would not be able to judge whether there was danger in the room in this way.
After all, not everyone has such a treasure as a detector.
"Next..."
Li Zheng's eyes were fixed for a moment, then he stretched out his hand to penetrate the film and turned it left and right, moving freely.
"No discomfort."
Nodding, Li Zheng pulled his hand out of the film. The palm was still intact and the process was not hindered.
"It seems that as long as a person has not completely passed over, he can still look back?"
Li Zheng went to swipe the ID card reader in front of a door again, but there was no response.
At this point, Li Zheng ended all testing and came to the film, preparing for his first exploration.
Before leaving, Li Zheng looked back at the initial room again, and unexpectedly discovered that the metal door that previously displayed "red danger" now changed to "orange-red danger."
"Huh? Change of danger level?" Li Zheng was moved and put down the stone in his hand.
Sure enough, the danger level of that door changed back to "Red Danger".
"Is it because stones can also be used as weapons?" Li Zheng bent down and picked up the stone, and finally determined that this was the case.
Even though the danger level has been lowered, Li Zheng has no intention of going in and taking a look. If he doesn't enter the safe room, isn't that because he is out of his mind?
Turning around, Li Zheng held the stone tightly and walked into the luminous film.
Passing through the film was like passing through a piece of light, and his eyes were completely covered by the color of the film. Li Zheng was careful, but there was still one foot behind that didn't come in.
After opening his eyes wide and confirming that he could not clearly see the contents of the next room even after the last attempt, Li Zheng gave up completely and completely passed through the membrane.
After the person completely passed through the film, all the light in front of him disappeared instantly, revealing the appearance of the room.
Li Zheng didn't look much, and quickly turned around to go back, but bumped into the membrane that he could easily pass through before.
Immediately afterwards, a prompt appeared in front of him:
【Invalid behavior】!
"Ah."
Li Zheng didn't care. He rubbed his sore nose and said to himself with a sigh: "It's really rigorous. There are no loopholes at all."
Turning around again, a room full of technology appeared in front of me.
This room is somewhat similar to a capsule residence. The walls are all covered with metal, and some unknown instruments are embedded in them. Various indicator lights are flashing, and they seem to be still working.
The main light source comes from recessed soft lights installed on the walls, roofs and floors. The soft lights are covered with materials like plexiglass and are not transparent, so the light is very soft.
This is also the reason why Li Zheng was able to adapt quickly when he entered here from a relatively dark room.
The ground was empty and clean, and Li Zheng found that the stones he threw in in advance did not appear in this room.
"It seems to be to prevent players from distracting possible dangers in the room by making false claims?"
Li Zheng immediately thought of the role of this setting.
With this in mind, continue observing the room.
Most of the instruments in the empty room don't even have system prompts, and they are like useless furnishings in the scene.
However, there were two instruments in the middle of the room, and the system gave some prompts.
[Material storage tank is a machine that can store materials for a long time. There may be some things in it that have not been taken away. 】
[Scientific research information desk, if you are careful enough, maybe you can get something from this machine.]
The material storage tank is called a "tank", but it actually looks more like a refrigerator.
The scientific research information desk is much fresher and more refined.
It is just a metal pillar with a touch screen computer on top, which flashes an indicator light from time to time to enhance its sense of presence.
After scanning all corners of the room to make sure that the system and detectors did not give out any more information, Li Zheng walked to the "refrigerator".
After opening it, there was only a long strip-shaped object ten centimeters long, two centimeters wide, and one centimeter thick inside.
[Energy bar, "Swipe away hunger and be yourself" is just an advertising slogan, but it is not an exaggeration here. If you eat it, you can at least buy half a meal!]
"This advertising slogan... sounds so familiar!"
"boom!"
Li Zheng slammed the door of the "refrigerator" and complained: "A refrigerator with a capacity of at least 180 liters only contains such a small gadget. You are cheating!"
With a roll of his eyes, Li Zheng stared at the "refrigerator" maliciously, "I wonder if this thing can be taken away..."
I touched the surface of the "refrigerator" with my hand and said silently in my heart: Take it.
【Invalid behavior.】
"Don't allow collection? How do you want the vast number of garbage collectors to deal with themselves?"
Li Zheng smacked his mouth, no longer paying attention to the empty refrigerator, and turned to look at the "computer".
Not long after drinking the nutrient solution, the sweet and greasy taste still lingered. Li Zheng put it into the capsule without thinking of opening the energy bar to taste the saltiness.
Coming to the "computer", Li Zheng pressed it expectantly.
"Beep."
There was a soft sound, and the computer screen woke up. The light blue background was empty, not even a "This Computer" or "Recycle Bin".
"Isn't it?"
Li Zheng was stunned.
Didn’t the system prompt say something could be found?
Why isn’t there an icon!?
Are you making trouble?
Unwilling to give up, he pressed randomly on the screen, not missing every inch.
To be continued...
