Chapter 499 Pattern-Perfect Connection
From a space perspective, the geostationary orbit 35,000 kilometers away looks down at the Earth below.
At a distance that is dozens of times higher than normal satellites, the ‘Southern Gate’ seems to be embedded in the background starry sky.
The connecting cable went down, and the space elevator, which also maintained a 0.2G deceleration, slowly approached, and finally came to a complete stop, and then slowly completed the connection with the 'Nantianmen'!
Kacha~
With the completion of the docking between the cargo hold and the 'Nantian Gate', the airtightness of the connection was completely locked, and then an opening appeared at the top of the elevator.
"This is the first time for everyone to come to a weightless environment. Please be careful not to bump into each other, and don't exert too much force. There are handrails and straps on the side to ensure balance. Next, the robot will complete unloading, and we can visit the Nantianmen... …”
All unloading is left to the robot, and the efficiency in the space environment is also extremely high, much faster than the process on the ground.
Standing in this synchronous orbit and looking down at the Earth tens of thousands of kilometers away, the impact made this group of people who had never been to space feel an unspeakable shock.
Live broadcast, shoot videos, take photos, check in like crazy!
With Umbrella's satellite acting as a relay, the signal here was not affected.
How many people have been to space in total in history?
In the past, the maximum number of people at one time was 8, and most of the time this number was not reached. However, this time, 200 people were sent directly at one go.
Most people have a yearning for the starry sky. Seeing so many people taking photos under the starry sky really makes many people around the world express their envy.
NASA also licked its face and began to send out congratulations
"Congratulations to Umbrella for creating another miracle. This is a milestone step in the history of human aviation, enough to be included in the annals of history! With the space elevator, there are endless possibilities for the stars! I look forward to the opportunity to cooperate."
If it had been before the beautiful girl was beaten, NASA might have had a tougher attitude, and there might have been some words of threats and coercion.
But now it is full of praise, with a dog-licking look as if he wants to seek cooperation.
"The special meteorite is still accelerating, and the launch of the detector is imminent, so our company is willing to cooperate with all parties. The launch specifications and parameters of Nantianmen will be sent to the major aviation departments below. If you want to borrow Nantianmen for space exploration Those who launch missions can apply in advance and pay the relevant fees. Only silver or credits will be charged...
"Of course, if the silver reserves are not enough or the credit points are not enough, we can help us with the production of some peripheral facilities to complete the redemption of credit points. Nantianmen is still in the process of expansion. Our company is preparing to complete the construction of the space factory. Once After completion, many of the equipment in the future can be manufactured in Nantianmen, and some asteroid mineral mining can be carried out. Currently, the demand for production capacity of related modules is relatively high.”
Qualified aerospace specification materials and processes that can be fully rolled out are still limited. Since Umbrella wants to accelerate the construction of orbital projects, it can naturally exchange for some module production capacity by assisting in launches.
In fact, with Umbrella's current power, it doesn't matter if she eats alone, just eat it!
But Umbrella still behaved the same as before, and did not act arrogant just because he pressed the old overlord button.
Even the space elevator is willing to cooperate and share. This kind of courage and generosity is really different from the previous petty beauty.
Even many of the beautiful senior executives who had made the decision had the urge to suck their own mouths out.
People are willing to share the space elevator, so they can show off their power when they are full!
The result is good now, showing off a white house alliance...
Even ordinary tourists are willing to take them there for a visit as long as transportation is not affected. You can imagine Umbrella's layout and confidence!
We are not worried about others learning the technology, nor are we worried about any terrorist attacks and destruction!
This is Umbrella's own confidence!
……
With Umbrella's commitment to provide Nantianmen as a launch pad, and after sending out various parameters and drawings.
Several parties around the world that were preparing to launch unmanned probes to the asteroid also began to quickly make some modifications to their designs.
You’re kidding, there is such a convenient thing as a space elevator, so you’re crazy and have to continue to design rockets that are so thankless and painful to fly over!
Rocket technology will not be lost and should be sealed just in case, but some normal launches do need to consider the issue of space elevators.
It can be said that with the advent of the space elevator, it is possible to directly evolve the ‘unmanned probe’ that originally had to be carefully calibrated into a large manned spacecraft!
The original plan for an earth-penetrating nuclear bomb has also been greatly improved and possible.
As long as the parts are transported to Nantianmen with the help of a space elevator, and then assembled in space, a large number of big guys can be easily sent out...
Of course, the premise is that all major components must be modified according to the parameters and formats sent by Umbrella.
In fact, the mass projector Umbrella also sent out some parameters in the past, but only Umbrella could do that. If it was sent, it was equivalent to not being sent.
It's different now. Even ordinary people without training, even an old man like Feite, can easily go into space. There is no doubt that the demand for materials has been greatly reduced.
What needs to be noted is the modular division according to the transportation of the space elevator and the format of placement inside.
At the same time, the base needs to be connected with the launch platform of Nantianmen.
In addition, Umbrella has also issued some relevant restrictions on flammable and explosive items and nuclear warheads.
Everything launched must be reviewed and scrutinized by Umbrella.
Only after obtaining approval can it be shipped to Penglai...
If it were in the past, this kind of move might cause some minor troubles.
After all, it involves something as sensitive as a nuclear bomb, and the technologies that can be applied in the aerospace field are definitely cutting-edge technologies. The advancement and confidentiality of the technology must be taken into consideration.
But now that Umbrella made this request again, no one raised objections.
Haha, keep it a secret!
For now, at least in the aerospace and nuclear fields, Umbrella has gone too far!
With magic hegemony, you can really do whatever you want!
Now looking back and thinking about those three mechas, they can really make all kinds of veteran experts eat their keyboards.
In this case, Wang Yi can naturally get some corresponding benefits.
No matter how many technical teams there are and how solid the technology is, in essence, it mainly relies on the convenience of magic power and some enhancements to materials.
Wang Yi actually attaches great importance to the technologies accumulated by all parties for many years. This can greatly enhance his own knowledge accumulation and even accelerate the next stage of self-transformation.
"All parties have sent relevant cooperation applications, and in addition to the original parties, many small countries such as South Korea and Neon have also applied to conduct research on some space topics."
Lin Shiqin refined the recent integration news, while Wang Yi said completely indifferently
"Let's put it in order. The key is to maintain the expansion efficiency of Nantianmen. Everything else doesn't matter. Since Nantianmen has come out, there should be some in Tianting."
Wang Yi looked through a paper with relish, and then thought of something and said
“How many immersive helmets are in closed testing?”
"Three thousand units. The current mass production technology is still a bit slow. We are trying to find ways to improve it. Considering the demon-rich environment of the abyss, it will be more efficient to build the helmet there."
"Okay, you can talk to Enzo directly. Three thousand units are enough for the initial testing. Send them out and leave a few for Qin Xiang. Then some friendly relations with the World Company can also send some out."
"Understood!"
Chapter 695
At a time when countries around the world began to seek cooperation with Umbrella in space, Umbrella also contracted out many non-core materials for the expansion of Nantianmen.
The closed beta test quota for "Abyss World" has finally been determined!
The first batch of closed beta test quota is 3,000 people!
First of all, 1024 of them were members of the Star Sky Cup group stage, and then some senior players in "Star World" also received test invitations.
Then some small broken websites and some world-based game anchors contracted by TT also obtained some quotas.
In addition to the distribution of these quotas, the remaining one thousand quotas are drawn.
"This game quota can be freely traded. At the same time, all players need to purchase an immersive helmet separately to enter the game. The immersive helmet costs 10,000 credits, but for this closed beta quota, the company can adopt the form of zero down payment and zero interest rate installments. Give the helmet first, and the cost can be repaid through the credits from the daily rewards of "Abyss World"..."
With the simultaneous announcements made by Umbrella and World Corporation, it immediately attracted the attention of many players who have been paying attention to "Abyss World"!
In fact, for some senior game enthusiasts, they even pay more attention to the game itself than some world events.
Many people have already begun to look forward to it!
“I got the quota, I’m really looking forward to it!”
"Brother, Umbrella is so evil. A helmet with 10,000 credits is so expensive. Otherwise, sell the helmet to me and let me bear the pain."
"What the heck! "Star World" is already super amazing and fulfills all my fantasies about virtual games. I will definitely buy "Abyss World"!"
"Yeah, I really can't think of anything more realistic than the current VR brain-computer platform."
"It's said to be immersive and can be played during sleep time. That should be the point."
"Personally, I don't really like the starry sky theme. I prefer the fantasy genre. But in the past, I couldn't do anything except "Starry Sky World", but now I can choose it."
"This kind of game will put a lot of pressure on practitioners, but fortunately, "Abyss World" can be played while sleeping."
"The key is to have credit points as rewards."
"Actually, "Star World" now also has some achievements that reward credit points, but compared to the daily rewards in "Abyss World", it is still far behind."
"..."
All kinds of expectations about "Abyss World" have begun to appear.
If there was no "Starry Sky World" in front of it, most people would probably sneer at the sudden announcement of brain-computer or immersive games and think it was a gimmick.
But now that there is such a perfect game as "Star World", various small games have appeared on the VR brain-computer platform. At this time, the rapid popularity of the VR brain-computer platform has almost reached the same level as smartphones and holographic bracelets. The popularity of phenomenal products has reached the same speed!
Therefore, we have always had high expectations for the ‘immersive’ game jointly created by Umbrella and World Corporation, which is said to be an epoch-making game that can replace sleep...
……
After Jiang Bo finished signing the express delivery, he felt a little excited at this time.
As the top alliance leader of "Star World" and a game anchor himself, he naturally got a spot in the closed beta test.
The closed beta test of the game started at eight o'clock tonight. He had been worried about problems on the express delivery route. Fortunately, he finally caught up.
After receiving the package, Jiang Bo started the live broadcast again and did a live broadcast of unboxing.
"Brothers, my helmet has arrived. It can be seen from the fact that "Abyss World" mailed a separate helmet. The technology itself is different from the VR brain-computer platform, and the helmet is heavier than I thought. It’s much heavier, so people shouldn’t be able to sit down and play with it. They can only lie down.”
Jiang Bo first hugged the box and had a first impression.
There were also various comments of envy, jealousy and hatred in his comments.
"Haha, don't worry, everyone, although this is an immersive game, it also has an external slot, which can be used for live broadcast. I will show you different game styles when the time comes."
Jiang Bo laughed and started unpacking the box.
The wooden box was beautifully packaged. When opened, the dark gaming helmet was revealed. The charger, external socket, and instructions were all listed one by one.
After looking at the catalog to make sure it was correct, Jiang Bo picked up the manual and put it in front of the live broadcast camera while reading it
“Sure enough, the helmet can only be used when lying down while sleeping, but there is a special memory material behind the helmet that acts as a pillow, so you don’t have to worry about stiff neck. In the future, we will launch a sleeping compartment that can last longer and automatically massage and relax. Damn it! Fulfills all my fantasies about immersive gaming! ”
Jiang Bo also looked a little excited when looking at the instructions.
The VR brain-computer platform is actually amazing enough, but it still relies on visual and auditory signals. The strongest point is the response to brain signals.
I am still awake.
But the immersive game "Abyss World" is completely called a second brand new world!
"Wow, this 'pillow' feels super good. I feel like Umbrella could even sell this pillow. Before Ankangding came out, the main reason for my insomnia was the pillow."
Jiang Bo pressed the memory material on the back of the helmet and it felt great.
Then he said to the manual
"This game is not connected to the Internet, but directly uses Umbrella's satellite communication network, which can be accessed from all over the world without the need for an Internet connection."
Jiang Bo discovered Hua Dian again.
In terms of network coverage, China is definitely at the top level in the world. However, in many other countries, because telecom service providers are focused on profits, they only focus on business and results. Many places have no signal and will not be able to connect. network.
But now the connection system that comes with this helmet perfectly solves these problems!
"It is worthy of being a top company in Nantianmen, but unfortunately it is different from the VR platform. There are no other mini-games here, and you see..."
Jiang Bo pointed the camera at the inside of the helmet. There was no screen display inside!
Just some round metal patch divisions.
"It is indeed immersive, not like a VR platform, and it also shows that this product is best used with Ankangding, haha~, it frees up sleep time out of thin air every day."
Jiang Bo still has some abilities. In just one unpacking process, he discovered a lot of details and pointed them out one by one and conducted some analysis and speculation, and most of them were quite accurate.
At the same time, many closed beta players who have received the helmets have also chosen to unpack and live broadcast.
Neither World Corporation nor Umbrella minded the leakage of closed beta content, and even thoughtfully prepared some external interfaces to facilitate interaction and contact with the live broadcast platform...
Chapter 696: Perfect Connection
The clock of 19:59 kept flashing, and Jiang Bo also took Ankangding in advance to prepare himself.
While lying on the bed and putting on the helmet, he spoke to the connected live broadcast equipment.
"It's completely different from VR. I don't want to advance for a minute. It's pitch black and there's no picture at all. I'll probably have mysophobia if I stay there for a long time, and I can't see your barrage..."
When Jiang Bo put on his hood, he always felt a sense of darkness and narrowness, and even if he took Ankangding, his sleepiness was not obvious.
"Hey, it will be troublesome if I can't fall asleep immediately..."
But just when Jiang Bo said this, he arrived at 20:00!
Then the helmet seemed to start working.
Under a special wavelength, Jiang Bo felt his eyelids become heavy before he finished speaking, and fell into a deep sleep.
However, the next moment, whether it was Jiang Bo himself or the water friends who had been watching the live broadcast, they saw the sudden change in the picture in front of them!
The opening scene seems to be in a laboratory, and a character that many people have seen appears in it.
The original culprit of the New York invasion, Dr. Johnson!
"Finally, finally done..."
Dr. Johnson laughed as he looked at the summoning circle in front of him. Then the door of the abyss was opened, and the abyss lord Enzo led the abyss army to start wreaking havoc in New York.
And the perspective of the picture also began to change automatically, and at the same time Jiang Bo's extremely surprised sound came from the picture
"Brothers, it's amazing! What a great feeling! It feels like I have become a soul and can travel back and forth at will."
Jiang Bo's words were a little incoherent. This was an experience he had never had before.
After entering the screen, he can interact and connect with the live broadcast equipment outside to a certain extent again, and can see the barrages.
"Awesome! I..., oh shit."
As a result, at the next moment, Jiang Bo seemed to be affected by a huge attraction, and was quickly pulled into the perspective of an ordinary citizen in the abyss invasion incident, and obtained his own body.
"Oh, touch! Perfect display of touch! Is this the background of the opening credits of "Abyss World"? I'm really looking forward to it!"
After transforming into an ordinary citizen, Jiang Bo began to pinch his body unconsciously, feeling a very real touch, as if he had always been here.
Then a pain adjustment system appeared before our eyes, which can be adjusted between 1% and 70%.
He also gave a reminder that the helmet has a protective mechanism. If the player encounters an abnormality, the connection will be protectively interrupted, so don't overdo it yourself.
This made Jiang Bo choose 70% without hesitation.
But just after making the selection, a ferocious monster the size of a giant elephant rushed out from the chaotic street corner ahead and started killing everyone in the crowd.
And Jiang Bo also heard the national curses from many people next to him
"Shit, why did you encounter this kind of thing as soon as you came in?"
"The punishment of death is very severe!"
"Run! Run!"
"Is it also going to end with a nuclear bomb?"
"..."
Listening to these voices, you can tell that the group of people gathered here are all players.
But it was obvious that a group of ordinary people had no ability to resist the monsters rushing out of the abyss. Just like many pictures circulating on the Internet, everyone was bitten, devoured, and killed.
Some guys who had the pain level turned up screamed and then turned it back down under the system's automatic correction.
Jiang Bo was eventually trampled to death and turned into a mosaic of meat.
Then he changed into the soul perspective again and began to look at the scene that almost replicated the invasion of New York.
"Fortunately, I have bad eyesight and quick hands, so I adjusted the pain back in advance. I'm really naughty, but this is a technical blockhouse."
Jiang Bo said extremely excitedly.
Then he continued to joke
"That is, Umbrella showed off her power and pushed the beauty to the ground and beat her. Otherwise, the opening content designed by World Company would have been protested by the beauty."
A group of sand sculpture fans were also discussing excitedly.
As for Umbrella, most people in the country have a favorable impression because both parties have always been harmonious.
In fact, I don’t have a character that strives for hegemony, and I don’t interfere with others. I just focus on developing myself. In the past, even if I wanted to be peaceful and develop myself, others would not let me!
Nowadays, many people actually have very high aspirations for it.
Because even if the emergence of robots leads to overcapacity, at least there will be "Abyss World" to take care of it!
Coupled with the surge in production capacity of synthetic foods and a large number of commodities, it is easy to achieve a relatively good quality of life.
Now they are all engaged in cheerful discussions.
"This should be the opening of the film. If there is no death penalty, it would probably be the ending of the nuclear bomb."
"Yes, even if you are lucky enough to escape this disaster, it should be useless..."
"However, the game type and content of "Abyss World" have been kept secret. We have only updated some monster illustrations and collected illustration materials. I don't know what type they are."
"Yes, the beginning is modern? Shouldn't it be magic..."
"..."
But at this moment, a huge void projection suddenly appeared over New York, and a gorgeous palace appeared in the sky.
When Jiang Bo looked up at the palace, he couldn't help but exclaimed
"Oh my God, a voice just appeared directly in my heart! It said that this palace is the Hall of Valor that was born by Gaia to protect the earth!"
But then Jiang Bo thought again. Now that his body is still in 'sleep and rest', it seems normal for Umbrella's technology to directly transmit information.
But netizens outside were amazed by this.
"Hall of Valor?"
"Oh, it should be considered a design pattern for parallel universes."
"Yes, so this time is the end of the Hall of Valor and then entering the magical world?"
"It's very possible, it's really exciting!"
“I don’t know how the Hall of Valor will handle it.”
"..."
The next moment, a large number of figures appeared in the Hall of Heroes in the sky, with various images. Because this is just the opening of the film, a truly 'fictional' world, so Wang Yi also released many images of predetermined heroic spirits.
"That is..., Arturia!"
"Damn it, stupid king, does he have any copyright?"
"Neon: Thank you dad for the compliment."
"That guy in the black dragon robe is so cool. He's so handsome. Damn! Terracotta Warriors! It's Ying Zheng!"
"The king's treasure is shining gold."
"Guan Yu! Zhang Fei! Lu Bu!"
"..."
As some iconic features were recognized, the identities of those heroic spirits were identified one by one.
In that gorgeous magical scene, the heroic spirits from the Hall of Valor defeated the abyss army, and finally surrounded it directly in front of Enzo.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Why can your planet be guarded by so many heroic spirits!"
Enzo screamed in despair.
Then a figure with a perfect appearance, unable to distinguish between male and female, wearing linen clothes and surrounded by thorns, slowly fell from the sky.
"In the name of the King of Heroes..."
As he raised his hand, countless thorns pierced out from the shadow of the Hall of Valor in the sky, completely binding Enzo.
Enzo kept struggling, but to no avail. The thorns became more and more compact, and they all pierced into his body, seeming to be extracting his magic power.
Finally, they were tied up and dragged into the phantom in the sky.
This is the end of the New York invasion!
Then the scenes in front of the players who were killed and turned into souls by the abyss army gradually turned black.
The screen appeared again, showing a desolate asteroid with lava flowing on it, accompanied by some narration.
The Hall of Valor is born. As souls who unfortunately died in the abyss invasion, the Hall of Valor gives you a chance to be reborn.
Go, head to the abyss, and open up territory for Blue Star!
Swish~
A huge portal appeared on the asteroid, and then the bound Enzo began to order his men to build a silver fortress and began to fast forward.
Waiting for the construction of the Silver Fortress to be completed, the shadow of the Hall of Valor appeared on the fortress.
At the same time, some introductory narrations are also given.
Gaia believes that we cannot passively wait for invasion, but should actively defend, so we need to reverse attack into the abyss to seize resources.
However, due to the distance between the Abyss and Blue Star, there is an obstacle to the gathering of faith, so only three heroic spirits can temporarily guard Enzo Territory.
The King of Heroes, King Arthur and the Champion!
New heroic spirits need to be chosen by players by praying to the Hall of Valor. Once the requirements are met, they will be unlocked. Now the first batch of 3,000 warriors have begun their initial exploration and learning of magic knowledge.
The first stage of the open map, Enzo Territory...

Update completed...
The fever hasn’t subsided yet, and when I cough it feels like my whole body is falling apart
