"How are we getting in?"
"Don't tell me we're shooting a rope from this cliff to the spaceship and sliding all the way over."
After catching his breath, He Zheng couldn't help asking Lia.
He gestured at the distance between the cliff and the Virtual City, and an iconic scene from a spy film sprang to mind: the protagonist team sliding into a base along a cable high above the ground.
