The next part was quite simple. I used Hannah Cooper’s set of equipment to demonstrate to everyone in the hall how to assemble everything. The computer’s main chassis was already put together, and the connection cables between the VR headset and the main unit were clearly labeled. Honestly, it was basically plug and play. What interested me most was the special game control keyboard for “Yueheng.” Unlike traditional keyboards, the “Yueheng” keyboard was made up of LCD sensors. When the power was off, it just looked like a uniquely shaped piece of glass, but as soon as I plugged it in, it instantly turned into a control panel glowing with a shimmering blue light. The sensation when touching it was truly strange. I’ve never touched a woman’s chest, but I swear on my grandmother’s name that this feels even better than that!

Clapping my hands to signal we were done, I turned to the other girls and said, “Alright, everyone try it out first. There’s a training mini-game installed on the main unit. Make sure to play it first, so you won’t be flustered when the real game starts!”

My words were quite effective. A few of the girls immediately grabbed their gear and rushed excitedly into the rooms. Linda Harris smiled and said, “Everyone’s account is already engraved on their headset. The first time you put it on, it’ll prompt you for iris lock, so you’ll never have to worry about account theft again.”

“Okay, I’ll go lock the door. Call me when you go out shopping tomorrow.”

Chapter 5: Experience

Holding the game headset, I could clearly feel my heart racing. Half a year had passed, and in the end, I was back on the old path of gaming!

This time was different from before—I was playing an online game. Although I’d heard that how well you do in “Yueheng” depends on your personal gaming talent, I wasn’t confident. Gaming talent? That’s something as illusory as a mirage.

Putting on the headset, my mind instantly felt a cool clarity. When I came to, I found myself standing at the edge of a cliff on a cold night. Looking down, I saw a pair of hands with clearly defined lines—this must be my avatar, right?

The ancient-style clothes felt awkward, but the cold wind at the cliff’s edge made my garments billow, which had its own unique charm. Glancing up at the sky, a blue-glowing moon was shining down on the land, and beneath my feet, the void was transforming into a scene of a brutal, unbearable battle.

Amid the blaring horns, neat formations of human cavalry charged forward fearlessly. The knights swung their lances and sabers, streaks of pale light chilling to the bone. A group of mages, protected by the knights, advanced slowly, chanting obscure spells. Huge balls of fire crashed chaotically into the enemy ranks, lighting up the black night.

In the firelight, I suddenly realized that the human army was facing—massive ice-bone dragons!

The blood-red dragon wings were smeared with pitiful scraps of flesh, some from the dragons, some from human knights. Fireballs hit the dragons’ bones with a “sizzle~” and then vanished.

Beneath the dragons was a dense mass—I looked closer and saw they were all skeletal warriors without flesh, wielding bone shields and rusty steel swords, locked in a deadly struggle with the human knights!

The cavalry’s powerful charges broke gap after gap in the skeleton formations, only to be filled again and again by endless waves of skeletons. Knights who entered the skeleton horde were immediately isolated, but they kept fighting desperately, piercing skeleton ribs with their lances over and over. When their horses fell, they drew their swords and kept battling. Blood slowly flowed down their bodies, while the skeleton warriors seemed inexhaustible. Whenever a human warrior fell in a pool of blood, their flesh silently dropped away, and a dim light flickered in their skulls’ eye sockets as they joined the ranks of the skeleton warriors!

A tangible ripple spread through the air, instantly shattering the skeletons within several meters into piles of bones. Immediately after, a milky white light fell on the wounded knights, and their bleeding wounds rapidly healed—the human priests had finally arrived!

In the distance, behind the skeletons and bone dragons, dozens of dark necromancers were hidden. They were the ones controlling this bloody slaughter!

A few blurry figures appeared beside the necromancers. They had been waiting for their chance, and finally, as the necromancers focused on summoning a second bone dragon, a blood-red flash streaked across a necromancer’s foul-smelling neck—a dagger hidden in black cloth revealed its chilling edge.

Screams rang out one after another, and the undead’s forces were gradually weakened. Human rogues had actually turned the tide of battle!

Far away, behind the human lines, a group of elderly, weak, sick, and disabled villagers watched the slaughter with wide eyes.

It turned out that what the warriors were defending with their lives was their homeland!

The two large characters “Yueheng” faintly appeared on the horizon, and the battle below was drawing to a close.

“Whew~”

I couldn’t help but let out a long breath—this promotional video was simply amazing!
