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

Chapter 7 Warning
615 Dormitory.

The sudden arrival of the man in military uniform caused quite a commotion.

But as the man in military uniform left and the dormitory door closed, the students who had been watching, despite their curiosity, had no choice but to disperse.

now.

Inside dormitory 615.

Yu Jin, Lao Cui, Gang Ge, and Yu Fei sat in a circle, each holding a chair.

In the middle of the four people, there was a square box.

The box had been opened by Ember, revealing a helmet inside that was gray-blue in color and had a slightly futuristic design.

"You're saying this helmet is worth hundreds of thousands?"

Hong Kong stared at the helmet for a long time, then looked at Lao Cui with some doubt.

Old Cui remained silent; from the moment he recognized the helmet, his face had been flushed with excitement.

Yufei was quiet by nature, but he carefully examined the helmet, as if trying to figure something out.

But the helmet ultimately belonged to Ember; he didn't speak, and no one dared to touch it.

Do you know how to use this helmet?

"Do I need to connect an internet cable or something?"

Yu Jin pondered for a moment, then looked at Old Cui.

"No network cable needed!"

"Just put it on and you can log into Wasteland!"

It was clear that watching Lao Cui's live stream was worthwhile; he hit the nail on the head.

Upon hearing this, Yu Jin nodded, but did not rush to put on the helmet and log into the so-called "Wasteland" game.

At that moment, he also sensed that something was amiss.

Although the man in military uniform suddenly showed up at the door not because she had become a 'nanny superhero', but...

This is something worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, how can you just give it away like that?
According to the man in military uniform, it was an 'order from his superiors'.

It's not hard to guess who the 'superior' is.

It's almost certainly that senior student, Ms. Yin.

only……

Why would she inexplicably send me such an expensive gaming helmet?
Also.

Is Wasteland really as realistic as Lao Cui describes?
Could it be that the system I just bound to today is also related to this game?
……

A host of questions lingered in Yu Jin's mind.

buzz-

Suddenly, the phone that Yu Jin had placed on the table vibrated.

Upon clicking, I saw it was a friend request from 'Yin Yao'.

After the approval, this senior student, Ms. Yin, quickly sent a message—

Have you received the helmet?

Ember thought for a moment and replied—

【received.】

Why did you send me this?

The dialog box fell silent.

After a while.

A new message popped up.

This game is quite interesting, but I can't get past the levels by myself.

I was thinking of inviting you to join us; if we team up, it might be easier to clear the level.

As for the value of the helmet, don't overthink it; that amount of money is negligible.

Yu Jin put down his phone and didn't reply.

A lot happened today.

It's the system again, it's Yin Yao again, and it's the game helmet again.

All of this inexplicably gave Yu Jin a feeling of 'a storm is brewing'.

five minutes later.

After careful consideration, Ember decided to give this helmet a try.

ten minutes later.

Under Lao Cui's guidance, Yu Jin put on the helmet.

"I just confirmed that the helmet has been activated with the game code."

"So all you need to do is wear it to create a character and log into the game!"

Old Cui's words still echoed in my ears.

But once Ember put on the helmet, all that remained was darkness.

Ding--

A crisp mechanical sound jolted Yu Jin awake.

[Would you like to log into the Wasteland world and start from scratch to survive the apocalypse?]

A dialog box pops up.

Two options appear simultaneously at the bottom of the dialog box—

【whether】.

Just as Yu Jin was about to control his mind and click "Yes".

But then another line of text suddenly appeared before my eyes.

This line of text...

From the system!

[A conflicting program has been detected. Please immediately cease all contact with the conflicting program!]

Followed by.

One red exclamation mark after another popped up on the semi-transparent panel.

[WARNING! WARNING!] [Please cease all contact immediately!]

This program conflicts with system programs!

[Forcibly binding may cause system program malfunction!]

……

……

"Old Yu?"

"You don't use this helmet yourself, but you want me to play with it?"

Old Cui stared in shock at the gray helmet that Yu Jin had just taken off and handed to him.

"Ah."

Ember nodded, thought for a moment, and added:
"I'm not interested in games."

"It's easy to get motion sickness in 3D movies."

"You can play with it for now. If Yin Yao wants it back later, you can give it to me then."

The words fell.

puff-

"father!"

Overwhelmed by this incredible surprise, Old Cui actually performed the greatest and most respectful ceremony between boys to Yu Jin, acknowledging him as his father!
"hiss--"

Yu Jin took a deep breath and quickly helped Old Cui up.

the other side.

The way Gang Ge and Yu Fei looked at Yu Jin changed again and again.

to the end.

It just adds a touch of inexplicable respect.

Both of them, including Lao Cui, thought that Yu Jin had seen Lao Cui's desire for the game, so he took the initiative to give it up and chose to lend it to Lao Cui to play first.

I don't know.

The reason why Ember gave up was because of the system's obstruction.

"I'm going out for a bit, I might be back late, don't lock the door."

After shoving the helmet into Old Cui's hand, Yu Jin stood up, turned around, and said.

The words fell.

Old Cui patted his chest and agreed:

"Don't worry, Lao Yu!"

"I'll keep watch tonight. No matter what time you come back, or even if you don't come back at all, I'll stay up all night for you!"

……

……

Yu Jin walked out of the dormitory building.

As night deepened, the evening breeze finally lost some of its heat and gained some coolness.

Yu Jin kept his head down as he walked along the tree-lined avenue of Jiangcheng University.

He didn't have anything specific to do when he came out; he just wanted some peace and quiet to sort out his thoughts.

"That Wasteland game is not simple."

This was the first conclusion that Yu Jin reached.

A game that can trigger a warning from its linked system is definitely not an ordinary game.

"Could it really be like what's written in online game novels, where games invade reality, or even the fourth catastrophe?"

The embers let the mind wander freely, inspiring bold imagination.

but……

He had no way of verifying these ideas.

Besides.

The second conclusion is—

"I can't play Wasteland".

After all, in Yu Jin's opinion, the system is pretty good as it is now, the bugs are great, and he can easily take advantage of them.

If the system program really malfunctions, who knows what will happen? If I really end up being transported to a wasteland, that would be terrible.

"What is the most important thing I need to do right now?"

Yu Jin stopped and asked himself the same question.

soon.

He concluded—

"Take advantage of the system and earn wasteland points!"

"Superman, Superman, and more Superman!"

Think about it this way.

Yu Jin suddenly felt his mind clear, and all the messy thoughts and worries that had been lingering in his mind were swept away.

Thinking too much will only increase your worries.

Only by taking action can we be fearless.

At this moment.

"Wang!"

"Wang Wang!"

In the darkness of night.

Suddenly, the sound of dogs barking came from afar.

Follow the sound.

At the end of the tree-lined avenue, a small black mongrel was staring intently at him.

A pair of eyes, glowing with a faint green light in the night...
