Chapter 595: Exploring the Inner World (1)
Translator: Lonelytree
“Welcome to the inner world, calibrating the second nervous connection…
“Calibration completed, initiating reconstruction of data…
“Reconstruction completed, correcting error…
“Correction rate reached 100 percent, reconstructing game menu…
“Reconstruction completed. Character model of inner world is ready, system limitation adjusted to 30 percent.
!!
“Good luck.”
A series of system notification directly appeared inside Feng Bujue’s consciousness. When he regained his sense of hearing, he could hear his uneven breathing that had not recovered; when he regained his sense of touch, he could feel the wind on his cheeks; when he regained his sense of smell, he could smell a light scent of metal in the air; when he regained his sense of taste, he could taste the tang of blood in his mouth; when he regained his sense of sight, he realized the brightness was blinding his eyelid so he… flipped his eyes open. At that moment, the transference and reconstruction of data pieces had been completed and Feng Bujue’s five senses were slowly returning to normal. A new world was opening before his eyes…
This was a world with grey and blue palette. Everything within his sight had the metallic shine of them. Be it through visual or data layer scanning, he could not discern the actual size of this space, for example, the swath of blue down the distance, was that the ground or the wall… it was impossible to tell. The sky above his head was greenish blue in color, there was no cloud and any celestial entities, the sky itself was glowing moderately.
In the sky, several strands of silk-like red data flow that size of one’s palm were floating… they looked like aurelia borealis or clouds. It was impossible to tell how long they extended, both ends reached down the horizon, they looked immaterial. When viewed from different angle, their shape would change depending on the refraction of the light.
“So this is the inner world…” ruoyu’s voice suddenly entered Brother Jue’s ears. Feng Bujue turned to the sound and saw the girl was standing not far from him, she also looked like she just recovered. “Ah… yes.” He answered before adding, “Are you alright?”
“I am fine.” Ruoyu’s mannerism and tone had returned to normal. “This kind of teleportation does not seem to cause any damage.”
“Hmm…that’s good then…” Feng Bujue said as he summoned the game menu. The next second, a new set of window appeared in his consciousness and no longer before his eyes. Even though this was the first time he opened this menu, the system did not provide any detail explanation to the various options of this menu. Looks like… the system was planning for the players to slowly explore this on their own.
“Hmm… the whole status bar has disappeared…” The first second after Feng Bujue saw the new menu, he said darkly, “Is this really a good thing…”
“it does not matter.” Ruoyu replied. “Take in the feeling…” After she said that, she paused for a few seconds before adding, “At this place, our sensory of our own body’s injury and stamina is more accurate, it is almost… close to reality.”
“Understood.” Feng Bujue nodded. “Now we need to rely on our own to tell how much Stamina Points, Life Points and Sorcery Points that we have left.”
“The same goes for the buffs and debuffs.” Ruoyu added.
“Ah~” Feng Bujue concluded. “In other words… when the limitation decreases, the aiding function decreases as well.” Even Brother Jue had to admit you would only value certain things after you had lost them. For example, the 100 percent system limitation in the surface world, even though the players were greatly under the system’s control and limitation but the assisting function had provided them with great help. At least the players would directly see how much life, stamina and sorcery points they had left through a glance at the clear status bar; when they got influenced by some negative effect, the system would tell them what was it directly too. But now… everything depended on their feeling. When you wanted to use a skill, you had to consider and feel… how many stamina and sorcery points you have left or you might cause ‘over exhaustion’ and that might lead to serious consequence.
“Speaking of which… where is that Anomaly?” Several seconds later, Ruoyu was reminded of V1- War God who was transported with them so she asked.
“The nature of his data is different from us, so the coordinate of his teleportation will be wildly different from us.” Feng Bujue explained. “To borrow an analogy, we are like files with almost same size, same name and same type while V1- War God had a property completely different from ours; so when these three files were dragged into the folder of ‘inner world’ the photon computer would filter the files according to the existing category, and this would involve an issue of arrangement.” He shrugged. “This is a natural law in this world, with V1- War God’s power, he still cannot go against this arrangement so…” he used his index finger to make a sign for ‘flying away’.

“Okay…” Actually Ruoyu did not quite understand what Brother Jue said, of course, she did not mind these details. “So… now can you tell me what the hell you are planning to do?”
“Erm… Well… where should I start?” Feng Bujue turned his body around and lowered his head and traced his finger from his forehead to the bridge of his nose. “it started during the tournament for the best and the moment I saw ZERO…”
…
On the other side, several minutes later, on the other side of inner world. Following a sound of explosion, a large body radiating golden light crashed to the ground.
“Qie… so many little tricks.” Just as V1- War God landed, he grumbled under his breath. Due to exhaustion, almost without hesitation, he turned back to his normal state.
“Phew… o well.” After deactivating his extreme mode, V1 gave a long sigh (normally he did not need to breathe, when he did so, it was either he was getting use to new environment or he was adjusting the density of his body), “Once we have returned to the inner world, injury and the limitation does not exist anymore.” At this point, he already reactivated his self-inspection system and white data flow soon covered his giant eye.
Internal data analysis:
–simulating last normal scan…
–Simulated scanning is safe, officially activating scan…
–scanning completed, unknown error has been cleared, virus isolated…
[Warning, unable to come up with an anti-virus to deal with infected virus. Activating permanent isolation solution and categorizing them as the most dangerous level]
–inspecting middle layer firewall…
–inspecting outer layer firewall…
[Reparation of firewalls has reached 100 percent. Stopping emergency isolation procedure. All system return to normal.]
“This is such a humiliation…” After V1- War God finished the self inspection, he did not feel better, in contrast, the anger in his heart was evoked again. “I was made so haggard by a mere player…” he roared into the sky and hissed through gritted teeth. “Feng Bujue! I will kill you with my own two hands…”
…
At the same time, Feng Bujue who was n kilometres away finally finished explaining everything that happened between hm and the Anomalies to Ruoyu.
And then….
“Hachoo!” He sneezed.
“When you sneeze, can’t you turn your face away?” Ruoyu said as she wiped at her face.
“Eh? You aren’t mad at me for that?” Feng Bujue smiled.
“I’ve slapped you earlier, so this calls it even.” Ruoyu said.
“Wait, I didn’t agree to that.” Feng Bujue grumbled, “if I knew, I would have sneezed right into your mouth.” When Brother Jue, he was just running his mouth like usual, he was not anticipating…
“Pew.” Ruoyu would spit at his face… without warning…
Even more coincidentally… the splat of spit flew into Brother Jue’s mouth.
“Hmm…” Feng Bujue carelessly swallowed it. Two seconds later, he shouted, “Hey! What was that for!”
“I gave it some more thought and realized you deserve the slap.” Ruoyu said calmly. “So I had to spit back at you to call it even.”
“Then spit at my face!” Feng Bujue roared with his eyes widened.
“Sorry, I have not done this before, I did not know how to aim it.” Ruoyu said softly, “I’ll be more careful next time.”
Feng Bujue’s lips twitched and he groaned hoarsely. “Then I shall thank you in advance!”

Hong—hong—
When Brother Jue was grumbling, suddenly two loud noises came from a far distance. The two instantly became more serious and turned to the sound.
And they saw…
