The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 661 The Mushroom Kingdom!

"Um... his cyber wife."

Actually, more than that.

As far as he knew, to avoid hurting his virtual wife, the guy took her to a private room at the bathhouse to try it out himself before giving it to her.

However, even in his eyes, this behavior was truly outrageous.

It's really not appropriate to say it in public.

They're still live right now!
If I tell anyone, we'll lose our friendship.

And who knows, that guy might even make an even more terrifying torture device and find an opportunity to use it on him.

It's always good to leave some room for maneuver.

Cat Tea heard her clearly this time, but still looked tense: "Is this okay? This isn't good, is it?"

Happy Superman's expression was subtle: "How do you know his wife doesn't like it?"

"???" Cat Tea's shock became even more pronounced, and her mouth opened wider and wider.

"Is this...impossible?"

"Why not?" Happy Superman retorted.

"Do you not believe in Zhumeng's [Mind Cube], do you not believe in AI trainers who charge 1000 yuan per session and 10000 yuan for a full tutorial, or do you not believe in the professional competence of Ms. Selina, a senior expert in relationships and sexology who charges 45000 yuan a day?"

As the words "Happy is Superman" faded away...

It wasn't just cat tea that remained silent.

Everyone present fell silent.

As a result, viewers in the live streams of various streamers were also typing out a flood of question marks.

He's confused everyone.

After a long while, a voice finally broke the awkward silence.

But what he said made things even more awkward:
"So, he paid someone to train his virtual wife into a submissive?"

Xunfei asked suspiciously, "You mean this friend is yourself?"

Happy Superman shook his head frantically: "How could I bear to spend that money!"

Cat Tea, clinging to the last shred of hope, asked, "So, which character is your friend's wife?"

As Cat Tea asked, she prayed silently in her heart:

Please, please, don't let it be Qingling!
She still retains the habit of sleeping in the same place.

Sometimes she would sleep in the virtual world, and Qingling would always massage her head and sing softly to help her fall asleep.

Everyone else looked nervously at Happy Superman.

Seeing this, even Happy Superman hesitated, "Maybe... we shouldn't ask anymore?"

"Just think of him as some random NPC."

At first, no one was willing to give up.

But what if it's the same character as my virtual wife...?

Even after using the [Mind Cube], and after a long period of getting to know each character, their memories, personalities, hobbies, and even their language repertoire become quite different, they still all have the same face.

Thinking about this, everyone felt that it was better not to know.

"Alright, alright, stop talking." Cat Tea shook her head helplessly.

"So you mean to borrow a donkey from one of your friends, then tie these Indians up and parade them through the streets?"

Chen Zhenjiang doesn't do any live streaming, so he speaks without much restraint. "The idea is good, but there are dozens of Indians here. Your friend doesn't have more than thirty wooden donkeys, does he?"

"Besides, would he really be willing to give these personal items to an Indian?"

Now that you mention it, even Happy Superman is a little uncertain.

This thing does seem a bit difficult to lend out.

Especially lending to Indians...

Then you can just throw it away after you're done using it.

However, the experts behind him soon offered suggestions: "Make more!"

"If all else fails, we can swim round after round!"

"Oh right, this is also a skilled job. We should respect the hard work of the craftsmen. Let's crowdfund and place an order!"

"Right! Don't worry about the time. I'll go warn those Indians first. If they dare to run, they'll be wanted with a bounty! They'll end up like Sanjay!"

……

Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Happy Superman readily agreed and immediately contacted his friends.

—He really does have this friend.

Huan Yue, who hadn't said much until now, suddenly spoke up: "Could you recommend this friend of yours to me?"

The way people around Huan Yue looked at her immediately became strange!
Huan Yue remained unfazed: "What? Don't you want to get to know such a skilled craftsperson in this field?"

The scene suddenly fell silent.

It quickly became extremely lively again—

"Hey, give me a push too."

"Me too, thank you."

"Count me in, count me in!"

"+1"

……

A large group of people started asking Happy Superman for his electronic business card, wanting to add him as a friend.

And it doesn't discriminate between men and women.

Even Cat Tea, whose worldview was greatly shaken, secretly messaged Happy Superman to ask for his business card.

She didn't want any donkeys, but she figured that if there was any need for handicrafts someday, it would at least be a way to make a living.

Happy Superman had no choice but to ask that friend.
-
When Happy Superman is busy, it can last for several hours.

The bad news is that this guy with the ID [Chen Qi] refuses to widely distribute his business card.

Normally it's fine.

But now, he's practically being associated with perverted sex maniacs, so who would dare to go public with that?
In the end, only a few people received his business card—all of whom were customers who directly paid to order the electric wooden donkey.

Of course, in Chen Qi's words, this thing is not called the electric wooden donkey, but the [Pink Unicorn].

As for the good news—

Even Happy Superman didn't know: people kept asking Chen Qi to order this pink unicorn, so he did a lot of work.

If Happy Superman wanted torture instruments, he could modify dozens of them in a minute, and even thoughtfully asked, "Should we wrap barbed wire around the stick?"

This question alone makes Happy Superman's butt tighten.

Then, decisively, I replied, "Add!"

The only problem is: this guy charges for every single torture device he uses.

Huan Yue wanted to pay for it, but everyone stopped her, and in the end, the money was raised through crowdfunding on the spot.

……

As everyone waited, all preparations were completed one after another.

Thirty-seven electric donkeys, each with a long wooden stick on its back and barbed wire wrapped around the stick, appeared in a small square outside the Deep Space String.

—To make it easier to parade through the streets, Chen Qi specially added wheels to this thing.

Of course, he himself did not show up.

Those Indians who were persuaded to "accept the punishment and the matter will be wiped clean" were a little confused when they first saw this thing.

But once they were hoisted up and their buttocks were hanging over the stick, they immediately regretted it!

They twisted their bodies wildly and shouted local swear words.

But it's too late to regret it now!
Because of their struggle, the player who was "execution" lost patience after failing to get the position right for a long time, and simply pressed down hard without any regard for anything else!
"Aaaaaahhhhhh~~~" A series of screams, rising and falling in pitch, rang out one after another!

The onlookers, seeing blood splattering from their buttocks, instinctively clenched their buttocks.

They all suffered the phantom pain.

The players who rushed up to carry out the execution were splattered with blood from the Third Brother's buttocks, and they all took several steps back, disgusted to the core.

Happy Superman had the foresight to back off early.

Now he finally approached and asked a screaming Indian player with a cheeky grin, "How does it feel?"

"...Aaaaaah, my! My butt...it's on fire!!!"

Distending pain, stinging pain, burning pain...

An extremely terrible, complex, yet delicate feeling surged up at the same time!
Indian player Shiwam deeply regrets his decision!
Even when fighting, if someone slashes your face with a knife, pierces your heart, or even gets riddled with bullets by a heavy machine gun, it only hurts for a moment and is completely bearable!

Based on these experiences, they were willing to accept the punishment, thinking that at most they would just lose face.

Who would have thought this kind of punishment would be!
and……

This feeling is just too real, too delicate!
Even kissing in the virtual world doesn't offer this rich and nuanced experience!

But at the same time, a strong sense of relief welled up within him—

Thank goodness! Thank goodness it's a virtual world.

He had witnessed in reality how high-caste individuals used offense as a pretext to inflict similar punishments on several Dalits.

Those lowly people were in so much pain that they lost their minds and struggled frantically. They soon died from massive blood loss.

When Shivam felt that the pain was greatly reduced in the virtual world and was tolerable.

The donkeys suddenly sprang to life!

Moreover, the wire releases an electric current as it runs!
Caught off guard, he—and the other prisoners—screamed in agony once more.

Unable to contain themselves, the three shouted "Force quit!" and collapsed onto the donkey, motionless.

His consciousness had withdrawn, but his body remained stationary due to the battle, and would not disappear for another 3 minutes.

As the price for their escape, they were immediately offered a bounty on overseas social media.

A long-term bounty, just like Sanjay's!

Then, this retaliatory parade officially began.

The long procession paraded along the busiest and most crowded main thoroughfare in the metropolis.

It drew everyone's attention.

As the Indian players were paraded through the streets, some of them couldn't bear the sight and forcibly withdrew.

Halfway through, only 12 people remained.

But that's not the most outrageous thing.

The most outrageous thing was that halfway through the march, everyone suddenly received news—

Xu Meng's launch site can break through system limitations and do many things that the system does not allow!

When others heard this news, they all wondered if they could bring their virtual wives over to do something fun and interesting.

But the marching crowd was seriously discussing whether or not to drive these electric scooters to the launch site!
The remaining 12 people were scared away on the spot, half of them ran away.

Fortunately, most Xia Kingdom players were just petty and vengeful, not truly insane, and quickly abandoned this terrible idea.

They even ended the parade early and excitedly ran towards Xu Meng's launch site.

Unfortunately, the engineering team had already finished work and left before the main force arrived at the launch site.

The launch site has also been downgraded from a special area with an extremely realistic atmosphere to a regular area.

Only the first batch of players who rushed over managed to get through the window before the rockets exploded and the aerospace engineers had left, experiencing the incredibly realistic details.

In the days that followed, speculation about the increased realism of the virtual world and discussions about Xu Meng's rocket fireworks display continued to rage.

In comparison, the fact that a dozen or so Indian players were once again placed on long-term bounties and were brutally beaten by powerful local Indian gangs on the same day is a trivial matter that is easily overlooked.

This heated discussion and anticipation lasted for a long time.

The story of the record-breaking 5700 million yuan auction has finally seen a sequel—

The unknown city has been found.
-
For more than a week, exploration and combat have been almost non-stop in the rainforest northwest of the Sprawling City.

Initially, this struggle primarily occurred between the player and the environment.

The first group of players, after traveling a considerable distance, suddenly encountered something incredibly magical—

Everything in the rainforest came alive!
The vines meandered like snakes, and human faces sprouted from the moss-covered trees, whispering in a language the player couldn't understand.

Grass and trees run on the ground, and flowers twirl and fly into the sky.

The stone sang loudly.

The river water flung the fish out of its body into the air.

The fish in the air constantly change color and size, dazzling the eyes.

……

Alfred and his bodyguard squad were the first to encounter this situation.

Seeing this noisy, magical, and dazzling scene, Alfred was somewhat dazed and muttered to himself incredulously:
"Who put marijuana in my lunch?"

Fortunately, he was a man of strong will and never touched such things. He quickly shook his head and banished the guess from his mind.

"If it's not my problem, then it's the rainforest's problem!"

"Something's not right here! Let's go around this area."

Alfred was very decisive.

But when they turned around, they found that the path they had cleared to get there had disappeared, and behind them were vibrant colors.

Then he realized: his team had been infected.

What's more troublesome than getting infected is that they don't even know why they got infected!
Is it because of some dangerous animal?

Or is it a plant?

Or perhaps it's water? Or air?
No clue at all.

The first team wipe occurred at this moment.

After they were resurrected, they tried to bypass the area, only to find that the area that caused the hallucinations was frighteningly large!
Because of the detour, they wasted a lot of time and were almost overtaken by the players who started later.

The second team consists of Australian players.

They were also lost and confused in this area.

After logging off, he studied what a cannabis plant looks like based on his experience. When he logged back on, he tried to find similar plants among the writhing and dancing plants, but in the end, he found nothing.

The third team consists of players from the Xia Kingdom.

Upon entering this area, as soon as the strange phenomenon appeared, the man from Yunnan in the group suddenly stopped:
"Um, wait a minute!"

His teammates looked over, puzzled.

The man said uncertainly, "The mushrooms I ate for lunch might not have been cooked properly... I can see a dozen konjac plants singing 'Happy Birthday' to me right now!"

Fortunately, the man quickly dispelled his doubts about his cooking skills.

Because after he finished describing it, his teammates also heard the singing!

Teammates who had never experienced mushroom poisoning before found it all very novel.

I played for quite a while before I started thinking about a solution.

At the suggestion of my fellow Yunnanese, we quickly set our sights on finding mushrooms.

After all that work, a new mushroom species with power rivaling that of the [Eternal Sleeping Clover]—the [Phantom Mushroom]—appeared before them.

They were able to leave the area only after consuming the mushroom and developing antibodies that caused a strong hallucination for 10 minutes.

But this is not the end.

Passing through this hallucinatory area is merely obtaining an admission ticket.

After crossing this threshold, what appeared before them was a huge mushroom kingdom!
