But unexpectedly, the Empire has already developed such a device inside the simulation equipnt based on this technology.
However, it’s a bit hard to say which one is more suitable for Chen Ming to use.
After all, if Chen Ming uses the Neural Overclocking Device for just ten minutes a day, his nerves will be activated for the entire day, ensuring that he remains clear-headed.
But this Thought Acceleration Device seems to have so limitations.
The most obvious is that you must lie on this device.
And even though such a device exists, Chen Ming hasn’t seen it being widely used anywhere in the Empire.
Either it’s a cost issue, or this device can’t be used for long periods.
If Chen Ming wants to get one, it’s fine if it’s the forr problem, but if it’s the latter, then it’s best to use it sparingly.
He must figure this out.
Of course, he doesn’t have the ti to do this now.
Once Chen Ming fully completed the deep consciousness infiltration, he found himself in a pitch-black virtual space.
So figures were standing beside him.
Counting him, there were ten people in total, split evenly, standing face to face, with Cheng Xinghai standing right across from him.
Seeing Chen Ming, she flashed a sly smile and extended her hand to Chen Ming, saying: "You’re finally here, we can begin."
Chen Ming looked at Cheng Xinghai’s hand and then glanced around. The other eight people standing face-to-face were all shaking hands to show goodwill.
So Chen Ming also reached out to shake hands.
However, his attention was not on Cheng Xinghai, but on observing the other eight present.
Seven of them were strangers to him, and the only familiar one was Cheng Xinghe standing in his row.
Cheng Xinghe imdiately noticed Chen Ming’s gaze and awkwardly turned his head away.
However, Chen Ming didn’t react much.
He doesn’t dwell on past events that have already ended, and Cheng Xinghe’s current behavior seed unnecessary to him.
But he couldn’t care less about what others did, so Chen Ming remained silent and continued to observe the others.
These people all looked very young, the oldest only in their early twenties, a few years younger than Chen Ming.
However, they didn’t have the deanor of fledgling young people, but rather looked like stalwarts of a faction.
Yet, for so reason, except for him and the Cheng siblings, the other seven had very stern expressions.
They looked as if they were going to real warfare instead of a simulated battlefield.
However, it wasn’t the right ti for Chen Ming to ask now.
Because after both sides t and shook hands, the friendly pre-battle exchange concluded.
Cheng Xinghai and the other four standing in front of Chen Ming gradually disappeared.
Only the four in Chen Ming’s faction remained by his side.
And from this mont on,
Chen Ming noticed that two tis appeared in the upper right of his vision.
One was the external standard Earth Ti, which flowed slowly due to the Thought Acceleration.
The other was a countdown ti within the simulation, aligned with perceived normal ti, with a total length just over half an hour—a month’s ti.
A month is the duration for the upcoming simulated war, and half an hour seems to be the final preparation ti now.
At the sa ti, a special terminal appeared in Chen Ming’s hand.
It seed to allow participants on the sa team to directly connect with each other.
After confirming his own situation, the five people present looked at each other.
Besides Chen Ming, the other four seed to know each other.
So, apart from Cheng Xinghe, the other three quickly focused their attention on Chen Ming.
One of them suddenly took a small step towards Chen Ming and said, "Hello Chen Ming, I am Song Pu, a senior in the Military Command major at the Military University under the Fourteenth Legion."
"Hello."
Chen Ming nodded in response and asked, "Do I need to do sothing?"
Song Pu didn’t directly answer this question but instead asked: "I heard from Cheng Xinghai that this is your first ti participating in such a large-scale simulated battle. Is that so?"
"Yes."
Chen Ming did not deny it.
"Then let give you a brief introduction first."
"We are currently engaged in a large-scale simulation battle with the Star Realm as the backdrop."
"The abilities required in large-scale warfare are diverse, so it must be carried out by multiple people."
"We need to work together to achieve the goals set by the background to win."
Although Chen Ming had already learned the general situation from Bai Quan before, he certainly wouldn’t be rude when Song Pu explained again.
So he simply acted as if he understood nothing and said: "Understood, but I heard the mission background this ti is a civil war, divided into Governnt Army and Rebel Army camps. Are we the Governnt Army or the Rebel Army?"
Before Song Pu could answer, soone next to him spoke up: "This can only be determined after we actually go in."
Song Pu nodded to the young man wearing rectangular glasses who spoke and turned back to Chen Ming, saying: "That’s right."
Chen Ming glanced at the chubby guy and asked: "It seems like you guys have worked together before?"
"Yes, a few of us have previous experience participating in similar simulated battles together."
"How about this, let’s introduce ourselves to make it easier to address each other."
"When we’re fully into the simulation, we’ll use our code nas as before. How about that?"
Chen Ming certainly wouldn’t refuse, and said: "I have no objections."
Song Pu patted his chest and said: "I, Song Pu, codena Commander, specialize in the overall deploynt and command of large-scale battlefields."
Then he pointed to the chubby guy wearing glasses who had just spoken: "This is Dong Miao, in the sa grade as at the sa school, but in the logistics major, specializes in the scheduling of logistical supplies and integration of logistical routes, ensuring frontline troop supply."
Song Pu’s gaze then shifted to the silent but robust one: "This is Hong Guanghong, codena Engineer, a Military Industrial Theory major at the Military Industrial University, specializes in military engineering planning and deploynt, responsible for military industrial planning and various military facility layouts."
Finally, he pointed to Cheng Xinghe: "This is Cheng Xinghe, codena General, specializes in battlefield command, you two seem to have known each other before?"
Cheng Xinghe barely nodded, still behaving sowhat evasively towards Chen Ming.
Yet Bai Quan had already responded, provided the necessary compensation, and solemnly apologized before.
But Cheng Xinghe seed to have been unable to let go of this matter, for so unknown reason.
At this mont, Bai Quan, who had just laid down in the device and hadn’t yet fully imrsed his consciousness, suddenly felt an itch in his nose, but this feeling quickly disappeared.
Bai Quan didn’t pay any mind and proceeded to plunge his consciousness into the device.
Chen Ming certainly didn’t know what Cheng Xinghe had gone through after coming back.
He was only contemplating the most suitable way to act in this situation, choosing to approach Cheng Xinghe and extended his hand.
Cheng Xinghe hesitated for a mont but eventually reached out and gave a firm handshake.
"Sorry."
"Shall we let go of our past conflicts?"
"Yes, thank you."
Cheng Xinghe nodded at Chen Ming, putting away his forr deanor.
The punishnt from Bai Quan had actually ended when he completed the tasks Bai Quan assigned to him.
His constant behavior was mainly due to his worries about Chen Ming’s attitude.
He is a junior to Bai Quan, while Chen Ming has, in just a few months, advanced from being on par with him to reaching a level equal to Bai Quan.
This made Cheng Xinghe feel an unspeakable gap and concern.
But after actually eting Chen Ming and seeing that he behaved normally,
Cheng Xinghe realized his worries were unnecessary, and continuing to act that way was pointless.
So, since Chen Ming offered him a suitable way out, he accepted it gladly.
Moreover, Bai Quan’s words relayed by Cheng Xinghai earlier continued to echo in his ears.
If he perford poorly on the battlefield and Bai Quan reported him to the school, it would be embarrassing, even though he was already in his fourth year and participating in warti internship.
Therefore, now he must let go of the past and fully invest in the upcoming simulated war.
Letting go completely, rather than just temporarily, would also be beneficial for him.
