Chichi spoke, he activated his cheat system and selected to sign in.
The reward was still a stack of banknotes, but this time it was more than before.
This greatly disappointed Chichi. Was he just unlucky?
The previous stack of bills was only Wu Bai dollars, but now they've given me ten thousand dollars—a thick, substantial stack that feels very substantial in my hand.
But in Chichi's eyes, money is the most useless thing.
In a city, it might even play a significant role.
But here, even if you wanted to spend money, there's nowhere to spend it.
There are no supermarkets, no hotels, no restaurants; it's all dilapidated.
Fortunately, he still had over 30,000 points, so he didn't have to worry about food and drink. The exchange list included supply packs, which weren't expensive and only cost 300 points, enough for him and Bai Mengyan to eat for a long time.
As for where to stay, any empty house will do.
Anyway, most of the houses are uninhabited.
Evelyn hadn't taken their money before, after all, Evelyn wasn't short of cash.
But when Chichi got out of the car, he stayed in the passenger seat.
This is where Chichi's cleverness lies; he's trying every possible way to increase Evelyn's favor towards them.
At the very least, they cannot be enemies.
What will Evelyn think after finding the money Chichi left on his seat?
The result is self-evident!
" Chichi, Chichi, I got a nano-modification opportunity as a sign-in reward, and they're asking if I want to use it!" Bai Mengyan shouted at this moment.
"What the heck?" Chichi was dumbfounded.
Chichi knows all too well just how powerful Transcendence's nanobots are.
With immense strength, the Revive severed limbs, incredible speed, and godlike Combat, this is essentially a technologically advanced version of Wolverine.
It can even heal a hole in your head! That's incredible!
Chichi opened the list and looked at it. The nano-modification opportunity cost 8,000 points each time. In other words, Bai Mengyan free with just one sign-in?
What kind of luck is this? Is he some kind of super lucky person?
"Then use it quickly, what are you waiting for?"
"But after the transformation, can I turn back?" Bai Mengyan asked worriedly.
She had seen the movie and naturally knew the power of nanotechnology in humans.
"Nothing in the movie world, except for points, can be brought into the real world. Besides, this is just a journey of consciousness, not a journey of the physical body."
"Is that so? That's good!"
Then Bai Mengyan chose to undergo the transformation.
A gray mist rose from Bai Mengyan's body, enveloping her completely. After a moment, the mist returned to Bai Mengyan's body.
Bai Mengyan doesn't seem to Changes much.
His eyes, however, appeared somewhat dark.
"How are you feeling?" Chichi asked curiously.
Bai Mengyan looked at her hands, and then a cloud of gray mist rose up, and in the blink of an eye, her arm transformed into a dark, long sword.
"Holy crap, Ultimate Nullifier TX?"
"It feels so amazing!" Bai Mengyan poked the ground a few times and actually made several holes in the cement, which shows how sharp it was.
"I have a Quantum processor in my brain that can see and control all kinds of signals, and I can also..."
"Sizzle!" Bai Mengyan's hand returned to normal, but arcs of electricity crackled across it.
" Chichi, hehehe!"
"What the hell are you trying to do?!"
"Cough cough, I didn't do anything!" Bai Mengyan said somewhat guiltily.
I don't believe you for a second; you're definitely thinking something bad.
Looking at the exchange list on the system interface, Chichi wondered if he should exchange for one too. But eight thousand points was just too much, and Chichi couldn't bear to spend it.
Forget it, I'll sign in again tomorrow. I refuse to believe I can stay this unlucky forever.
The two found an empty small building and randomly selected a room that was still in relatively good condition to stay in.
"Are we just going to wait like this?" Bai Mengyan asked, sitting on a worn-out sofa.
Chichi thought for a moment and said, " The Wu Bai points for the first mission are practically free; we can't really help Will with that."
Therefore, the Big Head of the points will come from the second task.
"But the system wouldn't release a free points-giving task for no reason, would it?" Bai Mengyan retorted.
Chichi paused for a moment, then asked, "Why do you say that?"
"A movie is a movie, and the movie world is the movie world. Take the first Elysium world, for example; the time traveler almost completely ruined the movie's plot."
" The Protagonist, Marcus, didn't even get a chance to appear before being killed by the robot inspectors."
" Marcus is dead? How come I didn't know?" Chichi was somewhat surprised.
"He is dead. A time traveler witnessed it firsthand, but at the time, news about time travelers couldn't be posted online, so very few people knew about it."
At that time, the authorities intervened and controlled the situation for a period of time, and only gradually relaxed the controls after the vote was held.
Clearly, a lot of information was censored at the time, and even if the first batch of transmigrators communicated, it was only within small circles or offline.
"Sure, how did you know?"
"Hehe, you probably don't know, but Big Black Ox and Brother Chao were on that time travel."
"Is that so? Why didn't they contact me?"
"I heard someone contacted them and told them not to talk about it."
Chichi nodded. Indeed, officials came to his door at the time, not only registering his information but also warning him not to spread rumors about it online.
At the time, Chichi understood the official's approach. After all, time travel was a huge issue. Look, now the Ancient Country is being targeted by other countries.
After returning from the Jinling World, Chichi received quite a few mysterious phone calls.
"That's good, you've made it quite clear. The movie isn't the movie world, that's a valid point."
"I now have a Quantum processor installed in my head, which is equivalent to having an extra AI brain. I'm incredibly smart now!"
"Nano-modification? It has this function too?"
"It has many functions, more than you can imagine. Nanotechnology modification is not just about replacing all the body's cells and structural tissues with Nanofactor structures; it also requires the addition of Quantum processor."
"Otherwise, how do you think the human brain could possibly control so Nanofactor?"
Chichi looked at Bai Mengyan with envy. Wasn't this just a step towards Transcendent God?
This is absolutely unreasonable!
"Then how do you recharge your energy?" Chichi asked again.
"I don't need to deliberately replenish it. As long as there is electricity within a kilometer radius, I can charge myself Across Space, including both conventional electricity and bioelectricity."
"Take those plants, for example; they circulate bioelectricity," Bai Mengyan, pointing out the window.
"In the movie, the Nanofactor that Will concocts at the end is practically godlike."
Chichi couldn't wait any longer. Why wait for the sign-in reward? He spent 8,000 points to redeem a nano-modification opportunity for himself.
Given his unlucky Chengdu background, who knows what he'll sign in for tomorrow?
Half an hour later, Chichi laughed heartily and transformed himself into Bai Mengyan's appearance.
"Hey, you've changed too much! It feels really weird, okay? Change back right now," Bai Mengyan, displeased.
A cloud of gray mist swirled around Chichi, and in the next moment it transformed back into its original form.
"Why does this Transformation effect feel a bit off?" Chichi said.
"Doesn't it feel like a monster or demon in a movie using Technique of Changes?" Bai Mengyan.
"That's right, that's the feeling!"
"With this nanotechnology modification, things will be much simpler from here on out. You keep an eye on Will's side, and I'll keep an eye on the RIFT Organization."
"Once Will's consciousness is successfully uploaded, we'll go out and cause trouble. Let's see who else dares to challenge us!" Chichi said arrogantly.
"Pfft, hahaha..." Bai Mengyan instantly transformed into Bai Lu, her demonic laughter returning.
Chichi scratches his head, "Is this funny? You're already Transcendent God, and your sense of humor is still so low?"
Meanwhile, in Los Angeles, Wang Lei and Sun Yanwang were squatting by a flower bed next to a building, looking up in the direction of the building.
"If you ask me, just give me a Charge, and we can just charge in and wipe those guys out. What are we waiting for? How long will this waiting go on?" Yanwang said, dissatisfied.
"Are you out of your mind? There are only two of us. Do you think we can get in? Even if we could get in and take down a few of the people in the Rift, do you think we could escape?"
"Are we just going to wait like this? It's been three hours already."
"The system can identify people in the Rift; they Nowhere to Hide. It's getting dark, and they'll eventually find themselves alone."
Wang Lei was utterly exasperated. It was one thing for Yanwang to be reckless on variety shows, but was he really going to be reckless while traveling through time?
That's all part of the show's setup, okay? Are you just getting addicted to recklessness?
However, in a way, this time-travel story doesn't seem to be much different from a variety show.
It's still being broadcast live by countless viewers, and it's still about various tasks.
Physical rewards and Battle Power rewards cannot be taken out of the game; the only thing that can be taken out is points, which cannot be traded.
Their purchasing power is alarmingly low.
Even if they have tens of thousands of points in each world, they would probably have to travel through more than a dozen worlds to exchange them for something of value.
It's simply a matter of moving the show's set into the movie world.
That's the case, at least for now.
Wang Lei and Yanwang have both completed their first sign-in.
The check-in location is downstairs from the Laifei Intelligent Program Development Company right in front of us.
Wang Lei signed in and gained 10 points of Battle Power, which greatly enhanced his physical fitness; it was a fairly useful reward.
What Yanwang signed in with were three hand grenades.
He kicked it right into his arms; if Wang Lei hadn't stopped him, he would have thrown the grenade into the building long ago.
The reason why Yanwang was so irritable was that, unlike Wang Lei, he simply did not believe in the existence of time travel.
They believe that someone simply pulled them into a virtual world similar to a metaverse.
However, Wang Lei couldn't tell him that he could still view the system interface and redeem items with points in the real world.
After all, most people are unaware of this matter.
Every extra day they can keep it a secret, they gain an advantage.
This is what Hong Lang told them during a previous gathering, and it's also what the Hong Lang above meant.
The fact that the Transmigration Livestream has already attracted attention overseas, so all information about the time traveler in the real world must be kept as secret as possible.
In the first beta version, there were too many people, making it difficult to operate. But now, there are only ten people in each time travel, making it much easier to keep the secret hidden for longer.
As for what the viewers in the live stream will think?
That's not important, since there's no concrete evidence anyway.
Perhaps we could explore the virtual world of the metaverse that Yanwang mentioned, and use that as a starting point to guide our discussion.
