480 Chapter 480 – Game Test [1]

The testing continued for the entire afternoon and lasted until late evening until they decided to call it a day. Max and Lily were exhausted and the researchers had to change some settings to perfect the new capsule and the nutrition injection.

Tomorrow, a new test was scheduled. It was a test with a real game included and both Max and Lily would do it together inside the Virtual Reality.

"Rest well, Lily. Don't forget to drink the nutritional capsule I gave you. Also, don't stay up too late. It will be bad for your skin."

Peter, as a worried and overprotective brother, made sure to warn Lily about her skin condition. Lily sighed at her brother's attitude as she followed Max out of the lab after packing their belongings.

Looking at them, Max couldn't help but chuckle.

"He's as overprotective as always."

"Un... It's a bit better than in the past, but yes. He still acts like I'm still 15." Lily replied with a smile. "Let's go and rest."

They left the lab and walked back to their hotel together.

After eating dinner in the hotel's restaurant, they spent their time playing chess and having small conversations about trivial things.

"What do you think about the new capsule?" Max asked.

He moved the white rook forward one square before leaning back on his chair.

Lily took her time before deciding on her move. After pondering for a moment, she finally responded.

"I don't really have any thoughts about it. I only felt slightly uncomfortable when my senses got more heightened, but apart from that... Everything else was fine." She tilted her head slightly as she looked at Max and spoke curiously, "What do you think about it?"

"It's something that can't be sold in the market."

The realistic sensation was too much. People who wanted to play games would feel annoyed by it as it would interfere with their game. Unless there was some setting or even system that allowed them to switch it off or revert it back to be similar to the old capsule.

Lily nodded in agreement at Max's answer before looking down at the chessboard again and decided her next move. She moved her pawn two squares forward.

"I agree with that."

"Still, I do think that this capsule is good."

Max smiled lightly as he took out one of Lily's pawns using his knight. He grinned at his girlfriend's shocked face after losing a pawn. "We can play longer games and wouldn't have to worry about our bodies. With how realistic the graphic and feeling are, I think your body will be able to endure a bit longer without needing a rest. That's probably what StoneSword want to achieve."

Curing the strange symptoms was hard. The solution that he arrived at was just to change the VR itself to make it more similar to reality so it wouldn't disturb Lily's cognitive functions as much.

The more familiar and immersive it was, the less stress it put on Lily's mind and body. He only hoped that the new capsule was as effective as he hoped for.

"Un, I understand that. But even though my brother said that I can play with you for longer..." She pursed her lips with a tinge of regret visible in her eyes, "I still don't want to stay for too long inside virtual reality. Somehow that's what I think right now. I just wanted to use it to have fun with you."

Compared to his equipment, she was clearly more geared toward support class like a healer or a magician. And her gear looked high-leveled, which made him look at the sky.

"StoneSword, you're able to hear us right?"

He knew Lily's brother could watch them through the live broadcast. The sound pickup was also pretty good so they could be heard even if they whispered.

"Yes." A voice answered almost immediately.

Affirming that StoneSword's voice could indeed be heard, Max nodded.

"Can you explain one thing?" He asked, "Why is Lily so geared?"

There was silence for a moment before the answer came back.

"That's a magician's standard equipment."

"Now, now. Don't lie to me." Max replied with a flat expression.

"It's standard equipment in this game." StoneSword replied once again, "Besides, we need to test a new character compared to an end-game character in this game. It's only natural for us to give a magician a good standard equipment from the get go so there is no need for you to worry. And there are only 3 monsters inside. You should finish it in under an hour."

"Is that so?" Max furrowed his brow before letting out a sigh in defeat.

There was no need to reason with StoneSword, the siscon. He knew that better than anyone else here. The siscon wasn't a person who could be reasoned with. In the first place, this game was for him to test with Lily anyway, so he didn't care if the standard equipment given to Lily was a bit too strong as long as she enjoyed it.

"What kind of spell can you use, Lily?" Max turned to ask her.

"Many." She answered, scrolling a hologram menu that only she could see. "Ice Bolt, Ice Shield, Magic Missile, Fireball, Frost Nova, Lightning Strike, Lightning Chain, Freezing Orb, Stone Prison... A lot."

She listed off several spells one by one with her finger hovering above a few of them.

Max couldn't help but admire how OP the magic was in this game. He looked around as he held his sword tightly in his hand and felt the grip on his waist for a sword he hadn't pulled out yet.

Compared to Lily's magic, this was just a stick. But even a stick was enough for him. Especially in VR where every motion he made could cause damage to his opponent.

"Alright, let's begin." Max said while walking toward the cave entrance with Lily following closely behind him.

He unsheathed his sword and put it in front of him just in case something attacked them. Vanguard and tank classes had high HP and defense which was perfect for him to take the lead since he had to protect Lily during battle.
