Chapter 1142 Going Back To The Virtual World
-----
Before I could do anything, all four of them ended falling asleep on the couch. It wasn't even midnight, but they were literally unconscious.
"I never thought alcohol could do such a thing to humans," I said. "They're incredibly weak."
"Indeed, to be defeated by a mere drink..." sighed Eleanora. "Well, I'm sure Spiritias humans can hold on much better, your father for example, he drinks a lot, but he never falls unconscious."
"My father is just built different," I smiled, nodding. "Anyways, I guess I'll save the repairs and upgrades for tomorrow morning."
"What are you doing now?" wondered Eleanora.
"I'll be logging into the VR game again, I need to investigate something," I said. "I don't really need much money now; I've got a huge amount of savings... But I want to explore that open world."
"Really? But why?" Eleanora wondered. "It's not like it even matters? What's the point?"
"I have a feeling it could reveal us the past of these humans, or of their world," I said. "Think about it, that world is way too real, there's no way they could have easily replicated it from just records alone. And seeing how they rely on the Giant Neutonium Core for their technology, it means they're probably not as technologically advanced..."
"Those are only assumptions; how do you know it's the truth?" Eleanora questioned me again.
"That wasteland might have probably been recreated out of the entire planet itself, the planet called "Earth" they call. The Mutants, the cities made out of metal scrap, and also I remember that guy said something about ruins... I want to explore them too." I explained.
"Hmmm~ I think you should simply sleep-"
"Listen, I just have a feeling, okay?" I said to Eleanora, looking at her in the eyes.. "You don't have to come if you don't want to, Eleanora. I'll be going anyways, I'm tired of trying to give you excuses. Why should I do that? I'm going."
"A-Ah! Wait! Blake, don't get mad at me!" Eleanora panicked. "I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to be rude. You told me before, years ago, that it was okay I could question you, that we were equals."
"Yes, but that also means you have to trust me sometimes, Eleanora," I said.
"I trust you!" she said.
"Then?" I asked.
"Okay, fine, let's give it a shot," she nodded. "You got me curious now... I wonder if you can rent a second robot for me to pilot?"
Perhaps if she could try hacking where they have all the information, and then we could learn much more but... no, she's still not so strong.
I don't want to risk her life here at least.
"No, leave it at that, enter the game installed on it," I said.
"Sure...!" she said. "Okay, I think I can do the whole thing on my own... Yeah! I can make an Avatar!"
"Amazing! Do that then," I nodded.
I waited until she was ready, and once she told me she was, she quickly logged into the VR Game.
Through our connection as Master and Spirit, she could continue talking to me telepathically even within the virtual world.
"How amusing, my lord!" Hendrick said. "I wish there was a spot for me..."
"It'll have to do with this for now, Hendrick," I said. "But I'll get you a robot too."
"Thank you!" he celebrated. "Then let us dive into this virtual world! Let us unravel the mysteries of these people's past world and-"
He kept talking so I ignored him and logged into the VR Game, I had already sent a message to Zack, and he agreed on meeting me and helping me in exchange for me giving him back some of the stuff I gained from him, such as some of his floating spears.
[Welcome back, Player Blake, you have logged back to [Machine Warrior Battle Arena]!]
[You have logged-in for the second time, you have earned a two-consecutive log-in bonus reward!]
[You received +100 Warrior Points and [Nanomachine Injection Syringe]!]
"Nanomachine Injection Syringe?"
As I logged back into the game, finding myself on one of the luxurious Inns of the city, I grabbed the item in my hands.
It was a syringe with a silver-colored liquid inside.
