Three Kingdoms: Zhang Fei was sent flying by a single spear thrust, leaving Liu Bei stunned.

Zhang Ziqian paid no attention to the noise on the training ground.

He is now facing a happy dilemma.

After the battles of Hulao Pass and Xingyang, and with the credit for "borrowing" money this time (although the system didn't award any points, Boss Cao's gratitude was genuine), his total points have accumulated to a considerable number.

115,000 points.

This huge sum of money made him drool as he looked at the goods in the system's online store.

[Option A (Hedonistic Choice): Redeem the 'Hyperspace Entertainment Terminal Deluxe Edition,' which includes unlimited data, VIP access to all platforms, and top-tier VR motion-sensing equipment. Price: 50000 points. Enjoy top-notch electronic entertainment even in chaotic times.]

[Option B (Steady Development): Purchase the 'Soul Fragment Gift Pack' to randomly obtain fragments of Xiang Yu, Li Cunxiao, or other top-tier Soul Fragments, accelerating Soul Fusion progress. Price: 100000 points. There is a chance to obtain rare passive skills.]

Option C (All-or-Nothing): Unlock a brand new Martial Soul card pool and perform a 10-pull. There's a 0.1% chance of directly obtaining a brand new, complete Martial Soul! Price: 100000 points. Friendly reminder: Card draws are risky; unlucky players should proceed with caution.

"Draw a card... draw a card..."

Zhang Ziqian's mouth was practically watering. As a seasoned otaku, nothing was more alluring than the words "gacha." What if? What if he got incredibly lucky and pulled out Guan Yu or Zhao Zilong? Wouldn't that be amazing?

But then he remembered his incredibly bad luck. He hadn't seen a King in over a dozen rounds of Dou Dizhu (a card game), and opening chests in games always resulted in the minimum win. That 0.1% probability was practically zero to him.

"No, I can't let myself get carried away. Gamblers never end well." He forced himself to calm down.

Option B: Steady Development. Buy Spirit Fragments for a real, tangible boost. But... it's so boring. It's just a numerical change, no surprises at all. And it costs 100,000 points, too expensive.

Finally, his gaze fell on Option A.

Hyperspace Entertainment Terminal Deluxe Edition!

Unlimited data! VIP access across all platforms! Top-of-the-line VR motion-sensing equipment!

"VR... Old man's ring... God of War... Holy crap!"

Zhang Ziqian felt that his DNA had been activated.

In this ghost town where there's no internet, no games, and not even a decent novel, he's going crazy. He's watched a few old movies on the system's built-in phone, but that's hardly enough.

Now, a door that could allow him to return to the modern spiritual world is right in front of him.

Moreover, it only requires 50,000 points!

After buying this, he still had 65,000 points left, enough to handle any unexpected situations.

"This is it!" Zhang Ziqian no longer hesitated, silently ordering in his mind, "System, exchange for option A!"

[Ding! Points deducted successfully! The 'Hyperspace Entertainment Terminal Deluxe Edition' has been sent to your private space. Please check.]

Zhang Ziqian couldn't wait to jump up from the recliner, and without even saying hello, he ran straight to his tent.

Cao Hong called from behind, "Ziqian, where are you going? Dinner will be ready soon!"

"I'm not eating! I have more important things to do today!" Zhang Ziqian's voice came from afar.

Cao Hong scratched his head, looking completely puzzled. Is there anything more important than eating?

Back in his tent, Zhang Ziqian immediately drew the curtains tightly shut. With a thought, a huge silver metal box appeared out of thin air in the center of the tent.

The box opened automatically, revealing a variety of devices that were both familiar and unfamiliar to him.

A streamlined helmet, looking more futuristic than any VR device he'd seen before his transmigration. A black, tight-fitting combat suit covered in tiny sensors. Two oddly shaped controllers, and a small box that resembled a router.

"Holy crap, this is top-of-the-line stuff!"

Following the system prompts, Zhang Ziqian quickly changed into the haptic suit. The material of the suit was unique, keeping him warm in winter and cool in summer, and it fit his body perfectly without any feeling of restriction.

Then he put on the helmet.

His vision went black for a moment, then a dazzling starry sky lit up. A gentle female electronic voice sounded in his ear.

[The Hyperspace Entertainment Terminal is starting up... Connecting to the Pan-Universe Network... Connection successful! Welcome, dear user.]

A virtual user interface appeared before Zhang Ziqian's eyes. It was densely covered with various app icons: games, movies, music, novels, forums... everything imaginable, and all of them were unlocked for VIP members.

"Cool!"

Zhang Ziqian was so excited he almost cried out. He felt as if he wasn't in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, but had returned to his home in the 21st century.

He couldn't wait to open the game library.

Elden Ring, God of War: Ragnarok, Cyberpunk 2077, Red Dead Redemption 2... countless masterpieces he once dreamed of or played and wanted to play again, lie there quietly.

"Which one should I play first? I'm so torn!"

He was like a child who had entered a candy store, browsing for a long time before finally succumbing to decision paralysis and randomly picking one.

[Elden Ring is launching... Loading the borderlands... Enjoy the game, Faded One.]

The next second, Zhang Ziqian felt his world spinning.

He was no longer in that simple tent, but stood on a magnificent yet desolate land. In the distance, towering golden trees reached into the clouds, radiating a sacred light. The air was filled with an atmosphere of desolation and bleakness.

"This...this is so realistic!"

Zhang Ziqian looked down at his hands, hands wearing worn-out gloves. He could even feel the breeze brushing against his skin and smell the mixture of earth and decaying plants in the air.

This is no longer just simple VR; it's practically full-fledged immersion!

Just as he was still in shock, a knight riding a horse and wearing heavy armor noticed him not far away.

"The Great Tree Guardians!"

Zhang Ziqian recognized the newbie village boss that was designed to discourage players from playing. He chuckled, not afraid at all, but rather excited.

In the real world, he was a top-tier fighter, beating anyone was a piece of cake for him, and he had long since grown bored with the game. Now, he could finally rediscover the "thrill" of being thrashed in the game.

"Come on, grandson! Let grandpa see how amazing you are!"

Zhang Ziqian roared, grabbed the small wooden stick given to him by the system, and charged towards the tree guardian.
