Lin Feng's real body lay in his original underground shelter. When his convoy was halfway there, the research team sent him word.
The robot he had asked the research team to develop after the Wallfacer Hearing where Radiiaz announced his plan—a robot controlled by humans with the same flexibility as a real body—had produced its first prototype.
A person only needed to lie in a gaming pod and log into the virtual world to remotely control this kind of robot.
Since it was intended for human operation, the first prototype had a humanoid appearance. With a few simple modifications, it could be made to look exactly like Lin Feng.
Wanting to test the robot's performance while he was at it, Lin Feng decided midway to use it as his stand-in for the meeting with the Wallbreaker. If anyone could tell it was a robotic double, that would mean its flexibility still needed improvement. After all, it was meant to match a living human body.
Of course, even if Lin Feng had gone in person, he would not have left his armored car. He would have had an agent disguise himself as Lin Feng and meet the Wallbreaker as his double, while Lin Feng listened to the Wallbreaker's words inside the vehicle through the receiver on the agent, then relayed his own words through a wireless earpiece for the agent to repeat to the Wallbreaker.
That had been the original plan. Lin Feng still remembered Liang Gong's earlier warning: a Wallfacer's business was not called fear.
Lin Feng's decision to have the robot double meet the Wallbreaker was also partly due to the agents.
It had to be said that the prototype robot double performed exceptionally well. Lin Feng felt as though he were truly standing in the National Mall, Washington
