I've already reached the maximum level, and you guys are just starting out?

Chapter 6 Helmet
Is Soraka strong or weak in this version?

On his way back to the dormitory after leaving the activity room, Yu Jin kept thinking about this question.

Although he doesn't know much about games.

But Ember still understands the basic principle that 'a healer is a support'.

Auxiliary?

Whose Superman wants to be a support character?!
A real man has to fight his countrymen fiercely!
If it weren't for the fact that it was already late and all the stray cats on campus had already hidden themselves and were hard to find, Yu Jin would have loved to go to the convenience store and buy ten more sausages to feed them properly!
Maybe I can activate more superpowers and get rid of the identity of 'Super Nanny'!
"Lao Yu!"

As soon as Yu Jin reached the dormitory building, someone called out to him.

Looking up, I saw that it was none other than Tang Yunxuan.

only……

At this moment, his face was somewhat dark, as if he had suffered some great injustice.

"What?"

Yu Jin was puzzled. He had arranged for this sycophant to go with Yin Yao to deliver the trash. Logically, this guy should be so happy that his tail should be wagging in the air right now!

Tang Yunxuan, with a dark expression, remained silent and handed his phone to Yu Jin.

The phone screen displays a VX chat dialog box.

-

Hello, I'm Yin Yao.

'You have added 'Yin Yao'. The above is a greeting message.'

-

These two sentences are the first things that catch the eye.

Yu Jin raised an eyebrow.

Wow, that's impressive!

"Yin Yao has proactively added your contact information!"

Tang Yunxuan remained silent, his face growing even darker.

Yu Jin was puzzled and continued watching.

-

[Hey senior, are you free to have dinner together tonight?]

This was posted by Tang Yunxuan.

He then added a shy kitten emoji.

-

Could you please send me Ember's contact information?

【Thanks. 】

This was posted by Yin Yao.

"..."

Yu Jin finally understood why Old Tang's face was so dark.

Hey--

Yu Jin sighed, patted Tang Yunxuan on the shoulder, and comforted him:

"Maybe she's just a slow starter..."

Upon hearing this, Tang Yunxuan's nostrils practically emitted visible white steam.

God knows what he went through!
After delivering the trash to the recycling station with Yin Yao, he sprinted back to his dormitory at top speed.

then.

Then, with great solemnity, he announced to his other three roommates—

Yin Yao took the initiative to ask for my contact information!

Upon hearing this, his roommates were all shocked!

This bombshell news even alarmed several neighboring dormitories!

For a time, Tang Yunxuan was enjoying great success.

Available in the next second.

When he was urged by several advisors to invite them to dinner, the reply he received was: "Could you please give me Ember's contact information?"

"Eh?"

Where did my Jokers go?

At that time, Lao Tang's roommate gave his evaluation.

……

……

In summer, the boys' dormitory building is always filled with a faint smell of hormones (sweat).

Yu Jin climbed all the way to the sixth floor and pushed open the door to dormitory 615.

The dormitory was quiet, with only the air conditioner blowing cool air.

"came back?"

Under bed number four, Yufei, who was engrossed in watching Tang Jiafeng's online classes under the desk lamp, took off one of his earphones and called out.

Yufei, despite being a native of Beijing, is exceptionally self-disciplined in his studies.

It's only the beginning of my junior year, and I'm already preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam by taking online courses and doing practice questions.

"You're really something!"

Yu Jin had uttered this sigh for who knows how many times.

Yufei smiled and continued to put on his headphones to attend online classes.

"Old Yu, how did the recruitment go today?"

Lying on bed number 2, with his legs crossed and scrolling through short videos, Brother Hong sat up and asked with a strange laugh.

"Not bad, we recruited one."

This statement came out.

Brother Hong Kong looked surprised.

"There really is someone willing to take on that trash-picking test!"

"Bull and force it!"

Brother Hong Kong gave a thumbs up.

Yu Jin smiled but didn't say anything.

He turned his head and looked at Old Cui under bed number 3, who was staring intently at the computer screen, his eyes unblinking.

Old Cui is a hardcore gamer. During his three years of university, he devoted almost all his time, except for attending classes, to gaming.

"Hey? Old Yu's back?"

It wasn't until Yu Jin walked up behind him that Old Cui, who was completely focused, finally realized what was happening.

He turned around and called out, his gaze quickly returning to the glowing screen.

"Why aren't you playing any games today? Are you watching other game streams instead?"

Yu Jin asked casually.

Upon hearing this, Old Cui immediately became excited.

"Hey!"

He sat up and pointed at the computer screen.

"Old Yu, do you know what game this is?"

Ember shook his head: "I don't know."

"Wasteland!"

When Lao Cui said those two words, he enunciated them with particular force, and two drops of saliva even splattered out.

"Wasteland?"

Ember doesn't pay much attention to games, but...

This was the second time he had heard the name of this game today.

Not long ago, Senior Sister Yin, who had connections to the highest levels, inexplicably mentioned this game to me.

"Is it fun?"

Perhaps because his bugged system was also related to the wasteland, Ember asked another question.

"Holy crap, this isn't just fun, it's absolutely amazing!"

Old Cui suddenly got excited and sat up abruptly from his gaming chair.

"This game is advertised as offering a 100% realistic experience!"

You know what holography is, right?

"This is even more amazing than holography! It's a completely immersive experience, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that you've traveled to another world!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Jin frowned deeply.

This kind of game...

I've only ever seen this in online game novels on Qidian. The technology in the real world is still far, far away from this level.

"You do not believe?"

Old Cui noticed the change in Yu Jin's expression and asked.

"Ah."

"There was that game set in the late Ming Dynasty before, its advertising was full of hype, but then..."

"You know."

Yu Jin shook his head.

"What nonsense about the late Ming Dynasty!"

"This is completely different from that one!"

"This game officially starts its closed beta test tonight, and many gaming bloggers have already tried it out. Look, they're even streaming it now!"

Old Cui pointed at the computer screen.

Ember glanced at the screen.

The scene is presented from a first-person perspective, with a dim, yellowish tone throughout, creating a strong sense of wasteland atmosphere.

but……

Besides that, there's not much else to see.

The graphics are excellent, easily surpassing many AAA titles on the market.

"Bros!"

"This game is so realistic!"

"Holy crap, I thought I'd traveled through time!"

"The air, the wasteland, the realism..."

click -

The live stream suddenly went black.

A message popped up on the computer screen: "[The live stream has been banned due to suspected violations.]"

"..."

Yu Jin and Lao Cui exchanged a glance and couldn't help but laugh.

"If you like this game so much, why aren't you playing it? Instead, you're watching other people's live streams?"

Yu Jin walked back to the desk under his bed and casually mentioned it.

"Old Yu, you're oversimplifying things!"

"This game won't be released globally for another seven days; it's still in closed beta right now!"

"Besides, even if it is released, I may not be able to play it. The holographic headset needed to play the game alone costs at least several hundred thousand, and I may not even be able to buy one!"

Old Cui sighed, his tone full of regret and pity.

Upon hearing this, Yu Jin said nothing more.

He turned on his computer, opened his browser, and searched for the keyword 'environmental protection action'.

Feeding stray cats and picking up trash today earned me a lot of freebies from the system. Yu Jin decided to broaden his thinking and try more avenues to see if he could fulfill his dream of becoming a "superhero of the motherland" as soon as possible.

thump—

dong dong——!
But at this moment.

There was a knock on the door of dormitory 615.

The knocking was deep yet forceful, echoing in the quiet dormitory.

Vaguely.

You can also hear a lot of quiet chatter coming from outside the door.

"what's the situation?"

"Dorm supervisor checking electrical appliances?"

Brother Hong poked his head out from under the bed.

"We usually check on Fridays, but today is only Monday."

Yufei took off his headphones and paused the online course for the postgraduate entrance exam playing on his tablet.

"Maybe Xiao Ding from next door invited me to go to the internet cafe for an overnight stay. I'll go check it out."

After saying this, Old Cui got up from his seat and walked quickly to the door.

Click——

The door opens.

The figure standing at the door caused the four people in the dormitory to widen their eyes in shock.

"Hello."

"Is Yu Jin there?"

A man with a buzz cut and bronze skin, dressed in military uniform with badges on his shoulders, gave a polite smile.

Although it was an inquiry.

But the moment he opened the door, his gaze was already fixed on Yu Jin.

In particular, the soldier's identity carries an inherent sense of oppression, and even the usually loud and boisterous Hong Kong guy fell silent for a moment.

"Is there a problem?"

Yu Jin frowned slightly.

He had just become a 'super nanny' when soldiers came knocking on his door?

Could there be other 'supermen' in this world besides myself?
The thought that Yu Jin had just conceived was immediately dismissed.

“Ember, classmate.”

"I was instructed by my superiors to bring this to you on a special occasion."

The man in military uniform spoke softly but solemnly.

Simultaneously.

He handed a square box, roughly the size of a basketball, that he was holding to Yu Jin.

"what is this?"

As Yu Jin took the box, he asked a question.

"helmet."

The man in military uniform answered.

"helmet?"

The embers remained unresolved.

"helmet?!"

Behind Yu Jin, Old Cui suddenly let out a cry of surprise.

He ran up to the embers, stared at the box from left to right, and jumped up when he saw the distinctive gray-yellow logo in the lower right corner of the box!

"I rely on!"

"A holographic helmet from the game Wasteland!"
