Chapter 189 - 173 Crisis
When he opened his eyes again, he was back in his own living room.
"I’m going to take a shower."
Li Cheng let Gray Rain play games for a while, and he went into the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and started showering.
The script world with an Earth-like background shares highly similar physical constants, historical evolution, and cultural customs with the real universe.
However, to prevent players from accidentally bringing back obscure bacteria or deadly viruses, forums usually advise Transcendents to disinfect their entire bodies immediately after returning from the script world.
Some large organizations with strict management, like European Heavy Industry, would even prepare a large pool filled with disinfectant for employees to lie in before teleporting into the script—just in case they die, their teleported corpses would fall into the pool, preventing secondary contamination.
And in online games, those quirky teammates who suddenly say they’re going to stop playing to take a shower are most likely trolling, but there’s a small chance they are indeed Transcendents who have just completed a script task and need to rush to shower.
When he came out of the bathroom, Gray Rain was sitting cross-legged on the sofa playing a PS5 game, her two hands manipulating the controller, and two additional hands grown from her shoulder blades continuously stuffing snacks into her mouth.
Err... Gray Rain needs to consume the high-calorie food equivalent to 20-40 people every day, yet her weight hardly increases. Maybe there is something like a nuclear reactor inside the liquid metal.
"Excuse me."
Li Cheng, carrying his laptop, sat down beside Gray Rain and expertly logged into a ladder service, searching for Seoul’s map from 14 years ago, Spirit Sect, and information on people like Jiang Wanyong.
