Not every one of the group decided to return to the hotel. Most of the disciples didn't have anything to do, so they instead decided to split away from the sect and do their own thing for the rest of the day.
The others who took part in the competitions, however, were very tired and just wanted to go back to the hotel and take so rest.
As such, they walked for 15 minutes or so and returned back to the sect.
Alex wasn't tired like the others, but he was very excited, so he went to his room and imdiately went to the bed. He didn't even wait for Wan Li to enter before he simply logged out.
As soon as he woke up, however, his excitent disappeared as he realized just how hungry he was. "Ah, that's right. I haven't eaten anything since yesterday night," he thought.
He quickly freshened up and walked out of the room.
There it was, in the living room, a large cuboid cardboard box. "My capsule!" Alex said in awe.
"Look at you. You look like a kid who just walked into a candy shop," Hannah said from the side. She had been staying there waiting for him to log out before they could go set up the capsule.
"I feel like one," Alex said.
"You want to set it up right now?" Hannah asked. Ning was about to nod when his stomach growled.
He made an embarrassed smile and said, "Can I eat sothing first? I am famished."
"Haha, alright. Co, I will get you sothing," She said ad prepared a al for him.
Alex ate the food like there was no tomorrow. " I really shouldn't have skipped my al today. This is a horrible feeling to log out to," he said.
"Well, good for you, you won't feel it anymore," Hannah said.
"Ah right, the capsule," Alex said. He quickly finished his al and walked out to the living room along with Hannah.
Instead of unpacking in the living room like last ti, they decided to take the whole thing to Alex's room. His room was on the lower floor, so it was fine.
They took the capsule in and started unboxing it. The capsule was the sa in design with blue streaks in a while body.
Alex put on the suction cups at the bottom of the capsule and set them against the wall on the far side of the room. Once everything was set up, he plugged the cables into the wall and opened the capsule.
"Alright sister. You can go to your own ga now. Thanks for taking this for ," Alex said.
"Alright, be careful. The permanent focus mode is quite hard to get used to. Don't panic if you can't get used to it," Hannah said.
Alex nodded and got into the capsule before closing the door. The space was quite spacious inside even though it looked very small from the outside. With his body completely free, he let it all loose and slowly let his mind drift.
Before he knew it, he had logged in.
He slowly stood up from his bed. The sa intense senses attacking from all around him. This ti, however, he was ready for it and took a deep breath before taking it all in.
He let the different information attack him and simply soaked it in like a sponge. The loud sounds, the bright light, the intense sll, the weird flavor of his own saliva, the robes brushing along his skin, the slow passing of ti; he let it all enter him.
He closed his eyes and slowly let go of the breath. He then took in another breath and let it go as well. He started doing it over and over again.
With each breath of air, he was slowly getting used to the feeling and it was starting to feel like it was going away. However, he knew what was happening was that he was getting saturated with the different information and was learning to ignore it.
He learned to ignore the bright lights, he ignored the loud sounds, he ignored the sll and the taste, he ignore the feeling of the heat and the clothes in his body.
The one thing he couldn't ignore imdiately was the perception of ti. Human beings weren't designed to sense such a sudden change in the speed of ti and it was going to take him a while.
He didn't know how long passed in real-ti, but from his internal clock, he felt like it took him half an hour before ti was back to normal as well.
He had managed to ignore that as well. He looked around and suddenly thought of sothing. Imdiately, the information that he was ignoring ca rushing in.
The focus mode was going to be there all the ti now. He was just going to have to ignore it.
He listened to the sounds and movents of the staff around him. He had a hard ti right now, but he felt like if he mastered it, he could instinctively choose what to ignore and what to allow in the long run. Although, that would take a long while of training.
Wan Li was reading his book as usual and writing stuff to it. Alex could see that the ti was normal around him once more. So, he decided to leave for now.
He walked out and thought of sothing. 'Do I go to the auction house? Or do I go to the library to learn more?' he thought.
He went to Ma Rong's room to see if she would be willing to visit the library with him, but she told him that she was busy and could only visit the library tomorrow.
So, he decided to skip the library for today. He would now go to the auction house to sell his new pills. He walked down the 17 flight of stairs and got out of the hotel.
As soon as he walked out onto the street, he was bombarded with a ton of information and he could keep a handle on the focus mode anymore.
