He wanted "Experiment Pools"? Was he really planning to return it that quickly?!
Even though Experiment Pools at the Virtual Reality Center were always in short supply, with personnel from various institutions practically fighting outside the offices over them every day, and any temporary reassignment bound to cost favors and "profits," Shi Wo still blurted out:
"Of course. How many do you need?"
The moment the words left his mouth, Shi Wo knew he had gotten too excited and misspoken. If Tai Yu really named an outrageous price and demanded three or five at once, he would offend over half of Star Ring City's top experimental institutions.
Yet Tai Yu was remarkably easygoing at this point. "I know it isn't easy for you to allocate them. Just do what you can."
But the more accommodating Tai Yu was, the more uneasy Shi Wo felt. This man had just said there were three or four hundred "rule schemes." By normal reasoning, wouldn't that mean he needed three or four hundred pools?
Even though Deep Blue World had highly mature "multi-Rule Environment splicing" technology, allowing multiple experimental Rule Environments to be joined within one pool, having them divided too finely would still be inappropriate.
And most importantly, the Myriad Transformations Deep Blue that had just been taken away amounted to nearly a thousand cubic meters. At that scale, there were very few Experiment Pools at the Virtual Reality Center that could hold it based on capacity alone.

The latter wore a miserable expression. "Our Experiment Pools have limited capacity. Pool One, the largest, happens to be occupied at the moment."
Pool One was precisely the place sealed
