Delta: Taming wheat in a dream, I, Said

Bai Kang looked up at the kind and amiable examiner, and he was certain that he had never seen this person before.

If that's the case...

That means the authorities want to see me.

Is it because of my performance in the exam? That's why they want to take me in?

As he pondered this, Bai Kang realized the other party's intentions and nodded slightly, "Okay."

Then, he turned to look at Hao Ren and Die.

"I'll be right back."

Soon, he followed the examiner to the principal's office. The reason? Because the principal's office was the most comfortable room in Yuncheng Academy.

Bai Kang glanced inside and saw that the principal was already waiting, but he was standing. Upon seeing the two arrive, he quickly smiled.

"Please sit down, please sit down."

The examiner didn't stand on ceremony and sat directly in the main seat, which is where the principal usually sits.

The principal, acting like a younger brother, quickly pulled out a chair opposite his desk, beaming with a wide smile.

"Bai Kang, please sit down."

This series of actions made Bai Kang realize one thing, that is,

The examiner's identity is not simple.

He nodded slightly and sat opposite the examiner, while the principal stood ramrod straight to the side like a bodyguard, even subconsciously tucking in his beer belly, trying to make himself look as proper as possible.

Bai Kang once again scrutinized the examiner in front of him. The examiner was a middle-aged man, dressed impeccably, with a very gentle expression, except for his eyes... which were somewhat deep and very intimidating.

He glanced at the man's palms and saw the calluses on them.

Bai Kang immediately determined that the callus was formed from years of holding a gun, because he also had such calluses in his dreams.

And how could an examiner, who is not a criminal police officer, have the opportunity to handle a gun?

The answer is obvious: the other party is an operator, and not an ordinary operator, because ordinary operators only have the opportunity to use guns in dungeons.

However, official operators are different because their physical abilities are far superior to those of ordinary people, and their skills can be used in reality. This means that those dangerous professions are actually held by operators, such as special forces soldiers.

While Bai Kang was observing the other person, the middle-aged man was also observing Bai Kang.

He was very curious about the identity of the person who had been specifically mentioned by his superiors, and now he realized that Bai Kang was no ordinary person.

Because of his work, he exudes an invisible sense of oppression. Most people don't even dare to look him in the eye, just like how ordinary people feel cowardly and fearful when facing a lion.

However, Bai Kang was no ordinary young man. He never avoided Bai Kang's gaze and even observed him instead.

Be neither arrogant nor humble, neither proud nor impatient.

That alone was enough to make him take it seriously.

"Hello, my name is Wu Feng," the man said calmly. "As you can see, I am an operator."

Bai Kang nodded and said softly, "Mr. Wu, may I ask what brings you here?"

Although he vaguely guessed the other party's intentions, the necessary procedures still had to be followed; this was in the DNA ingrained in the Chinese people.

Wu Feng did not answer that question, but instead brought up another matter.

"The delta appeared suddenly twenty years ago, and in those twenty years, it has completely permeated people's lives."

People only know one thing: the delta is benefiting mankind, the country is developing rapidly by utilizing the products of the delta, and the people's happiness index is rising at an incredible speed.

But people only ever care about superficial benefits, never bothering to investigate the essence of things.

Wu Feng suddenly stared at Bai Kang, his eyes like a hawk's, and asked, "What do you think of what I just said?"

Bai Kang remained silent for a moment, pondering the deeper meaning of those words.

After a long silence, he spoke softly: "Fortune and misfortune are intertwined. There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. If there is, then you are dreaming."

The benefits that delta products bring to humankind are an undeniable fact.

So, what misfortune corresponds to such great fortune? Are you trying to tell me that the arrival of the Delta brings not only immense blessings but also corresponding calamities?

Wu Feng gave Bai Kang an appreciative look.

That's right, this kid is smart; he understood what he meant right away.

"Indeed, developing reality using technology unearthed from the Delta—what a wonderful thing this is! How could anything in the world be so amazing?"

As he spoke, Wu Feng's eyes suddenly sharpened. "Bai Kang, I can tell you clearly that while the Delta benefits mankind, it also has the terrible drawback of upending the world."

That is,

World Invasion!

Upon hearing this, the entire office fell silent. The principal's expression remained unchanged; given his position, he already knew about this matter.

While Bai Kang's expression remained unchanged on the surface, a turbulent storm raged within him.

World Invasion!

What is an intrusion?

Intrusion is the unauthorized entry or intervention.

He immediately made the connection,

The world of the Delta is about to invade reality!

But isn't Delta Force a dungeon?

No, that's not right!

Bai Kang's pupils contracted sharply.

That's right, all the Delta he's entered so far have been instances.

However, there is one place that doesn't feel like a copy, but rather like another reality.

A dream, a dream!

The dream he had every time he fell asleep! He even encountered Mai Xiaowen from reality in it, which means his dream was a duplicate.

No, that's not right, you can't say that.

It should be said that the world in his dream was a copy.

In reality, such a copy should indeed exist, but he has not entered it yet.

And this instance is the real Delta world.

Judging from Wu Feng's words, the country had already discovered the Delta world a long time ago, and in a sense, was preventing the Delta from invading.

He clenched his fists, his pupils trembling uncontrollably. If a second world truly existed, and the two worlds could interact with each other.

that,

Who does he think he is?

Or rather, what is he, Said, in another world?

Why does he have an identity in another world?

What role does he play in both worlds? Or... which world's version of him is the real him?

Bai Kang dared not think too deeply about it.

"Bai Kang, Bai Kang?"

Wu Feng noticed Bai Kang's unusual behavior, his eyes flickering.

Bai Kang snapped out of his daze, suppressing the strange feeling in his heart and trying his best to appear normal. "W-what's wrong?"

Wu Feng narrowed his eyes. "After you heard me say that, your eyes became unfocused, your breathing became rapid, and you even broke out in a sweat. This means you've connected it to something, and it's related to the intrusion I mentioned."

He suddenly leaned down, close to Bai Kang. In his pupils, Bai Kang could see his own panicked reflection. At that moment, Wu Feng's demonic voice slowly rang out.

"You have entered instance 001."

Bai Kang paused for a moment, then subconsciously repeated the sound.

"Instance number 001?"

……

I've measured it! I've measured it! Hahahaha... (Laughter from the Ghostly Demon Lord) \(＠＾０＾＠)/♪
