Wenren Sheng personally went to observe. With Eagle Eye enhanced over ten thousandfold and Little Illusion's reminders, he finally spotted a clue.
Those units were not made of material particles from the real world, but streams of source power.
What was the essence of source power? General research held that it was a special form of energy, one that consciousness could directly control.
Energy could not be seen or touched, yet it truly existed because it could be observed indirectly—for example, by heating water.
Source power, however, could be seen through consciousness. Of course, only the consciousness of a Supernatural Being could do so.
It manifested in countless forms, much like energy itself. Sometimes it resembled mist, sometimes ocean waves, sometimes light...
At that moment, in Wenren Sheng's eyes, those Heroes of Might and Magic units looked like streams of green binary code.
Combinations of zeros and ones formed those units.
No wonder Little Illusion said they were fake.
Wenren Sheng then looked at his Big Cat.
Yet Big Cat was completely real. There were no combinations of zeros and ones to be seen.
This made him realize that this Demon World was not yet entirely a Game World.
How did this world operate? An ordinary game world rested upon countless CPUs, hard drives, memory modules, network cables, central servers, and clients.
Data had to rely on hardware to exist.
The virtual had to rely on the real.
Just like the worlds, people, and objects imagined in one's mind all required a fully developed, healthy brain in order to be imagined.
So where did the reality of the Demon World lie?
What did it rely upon? Several questions surfaced in Wenren Sheng's mind.
These questions would be the fulcrum for uncovering the Game Emulator's hidden cards.
