Su Luo: This Game Is Quite Realistic!

"Is this the new game world Lala created?"

Although his vision had suddenly gone black, when Su Luo opened his eyes again, he saw a landscape different from the laboratory.

Su Luo confirmed that he was in a forest. It didn't look like the depths of the forest, as he could see some cooking smoke slowly drifting in the distance. Su Luo guessed there must be a village nearby.

After confirming his location, Su Luo turned 360 degrees, searching for Akashi. He found traces of Akashi under a tree not far away.

However, unlike his sense of novelty, Akashi's expression was quite serious.

"Akashi, what's wrong?"

"Commander, don't you feel something is wrong, nya?"

"Wrong? What do you mean? The game experience? Clarity? Smoothness? Realism? Or something else? I think it's all good, it feels like a real world!"

Akashi shook her head and pointed to a spot not far from where Su Luo was standing, gesturing for him to look.

"Commander, didn't you realize you're not wearing a game helmet at all right now, nya?"

Su Luo followed Akashi's gesture and saw the virtual game helmet he had just received from Lala, lying not far from where he had been standing.

Su Luo blinked, realizing something, and looked at Akashi with a slightly displeased expression.

Akashi nodded and showed Su Luo what she was holding.

What Akashi was holding was the Super Game Maker that Lala had shown Su Luo.

And now, Akashi had already disassembled the casing of the Super Game Maker. Inside, a cat-head imprint appeared...

It was obvious that this was the Super Game Maker that Akashi had repaired before, which had caused Lala and the others to travel through worlds!

Port, Lala's laboratory.

Lala looked at the lounge chair with a face full of confusion, pondering where the problem might have occurred.

Momo, who had witnessed the event, set aside the food she had brought for her sister and Akashi and walked over to Lala.

"Sister, did Commander use the previous Super Game Maker?"

"No, Momo, I gave Commander my newly developed game maker to try out. This situation of traveling through worlds shouldn't have happened!"

Lala shook her head, unable to pinpoint the problem yet, a troubled look on her face. However, her own dressing robot seemed to have noticed something.

"Lady Lala, could it be that you picked the wrong game maker?"

Pei Kai's cautious voice reached Lala and Momo's ears.

"Picked the wrong one?"

Momo asked in a confused tone.

"After all, the Super Game Maker II that Lady Lala made looks exactly the same as the Super Game Maker I on the outside, and both game makers were placed together before..."

Before Pei Kai finished speaking, Lala seemed to recall something and quickly ran to where she had placed the game makers. Looking at the game maker on the stand, she decisively began to disassemble it.

After removing the casing, Lala saw that there was no cat-head emblem on the parts inside, and she knew that she had indeed picked the wrong game maker.

"Eh? It really, really was the wrong one! I should have checked more carefully just now!"

Momo stood aside and quietly asked.

"Sister, these problems are not important anymore. The key now is Commander! Can Sister confirm where Commander is?"

"Hmm... probably, but it will take some time!"

"Okay, Sister, you start looking for Commander right away, and I'll go notify the secretary ship!"

Before Momo could even step out of the laboratory door, a loud bang came from Akashi's workshop, the door of which Momo had closed when she entered. Both Lala, who was trying to figure things out, and Momo, who was walking out, were startled. Momo, who could already see the door of Akashi's workshop, instinctively looked over.

The workshop door, which wasn't particularly thick, had detached from its frame and smashed directly into the wall opposite the entrance. Momo glanced at the door panel that was already embedded in the wall before shifting her gaze to the blue-haired ship girl walking in from the doorway.

Momo recognized this blue-haired ship girl, but she hadn't interacted much with her before. She was, however, very familiar with another ship girl who looked very similar to this one and shared the same name.

Momo watched the blue-haired figure walk not far in front of her and silently uttered her name in her mind—Helena META, the ship girl called Black Sea Mom by the Commander.

Momo knew that there were some beings in the port called META Ship Girls, and she had met most of them, but she wasn't familiar with them. Compared to other ship girls, META Ship Girls mostly had a cold or even irritable aura, making them seem unapproachable.

In fact, it was true. In the port, except when facing the Commander, they rarely smiled at anyone else.

"SG cannot sense the Commander's presence. This is the location where the Commander disappeared. Tell me, where is the Commander?"

Helena META walked into Lala's laboratory, scanned the surroundings, and asked Momo and Lala with a frown.

Seeing the anxious and uneasy expression on Helena META's face, especially after seeing her sharp gaze, Momo understood. This META Ship Girl, whom she didn't know well, was different from the familiar Helena, who was somewhat timid and often melancholic. Helena META's personality... might be more akin to those young ladies from Heavy Sakura!

Recalling those "special" ship girls in the port, Momo sighed inwardly.

"If Sister can't find Commander quickly... then it's going to get very lively here!"

"So... Lala picked the wrong game maker?"

Su Luo pressed his temples, slowly accepting this fact and trying to calm himself down.

"That's right, nya!"

Akashi reassembled the casing of the game maker and looked at the beeping machine, lowering her head to check the contents displayed on its screen.

"Subjects: Su Luo, Akashi. Total: two people."

"Successfully connected to the current world."

Akashi read out the text that appeared on the screen.

"Connected... to the current world?"

"So, we've really encountered the same situation as Lala and the others before, haven't we?"

Su Luo sighed. It had only been a guess before, but now it was finally confirmed.

Akashi didn't say anything, just kept fiddling with the game maker in her hands.

"Commander, perhaps, we are ab—"

"Akashi! Watch out."

Before Akashi could finish her sentence, Su Luo pulled her away, moving her from her previous position.

The next moment, a bizarre-looking, humanoid creature, predominantly black and purple, swung its claws through the spot where Akashi had just been standing.
