CH 29

TL: Hua

In the afternoon, not long after Clarice put down the light brain that Ji Mingjiang wanted, he picked up the coat hanging on the hanger and went out.

Ji Mingjiang waited in place for a while, and after confirming that the footsteps outside the door gradually faded away, he brought over the light brain that Clarice had placed by the pool.

It is still the familiar gradient color scheme. Ji Mingjiang very skillfully bound the light brain and himself.

After booting up, he first turned on the normal mode, and then found that the adult version of the light brain and the children light brain are very different.

If you only look at the first interface, the children’s light brain can even be said to be more like a product of failed research with incomplete functions.

Looking at all kinds of fancy software in front of him, it took Ji Mingjiang a long time to find out which software he would mainly use.

One is the chat software that is currently only used by Clarice; the other is the star network software that is equivalent to Weibo; and the last one is the software that records the different customs of different galaxies and planets.

As for the rest, he copied the children’s light brains and categorized them together. For example, all kinds of games that he had been coveting for a long time were divided into one area. Shopping, takeout, and other software were allocated to the living area. Any video and selfie software that he hasn’t used for a long time was put in an idle area.

It is worth mentioning that the pink game software that made Ji Mingjiang feel a lot younger did not appear in this. Thinking of the number of beastmen in society now, Ji Mingjiang felt as if he understood something.

Those “Baby Pandas” and “Little Tadpoles Looking for Mom” are probably for children who have the characteristics of beasts in the early childhood stage. After all, for children who cannot skillfully suppress their characteristics as beasts, it is necessary to understand these things.

Finally, looking at the live streaming software, which he didn’t know where to put, Ji Mingjiang suddenly remembered his previous idea of making money. Although he had never been involved in live streaming in his previous life, it seems that he often hears news about a certain anchor earning millions per month?

Moreover, creatures like mermaids seem to have a large number of loyal fans, no matter if they are in the Federation or the Empire.

Forget it.

Ji Mingjiang shook his head to shake this idea out for the time being.

Leaving aside the fact that he has never been in contact with this industry before and didn’t know what to stream, the palace doesn’t seem like a convenient place for live streaming, so he still needs to discuss it with Clarice.

After hesitating for a while, Ji Mingjiang finally dragged the live streaming software into the idle area.

After tidying up the floating screen in front of him so that it wasn’t as eye-catching, Ji Mingjiang clicked on Clarice’s chat page. As soon as he finished editing a short thank-you message and sent it, he immediately received a message from Clarice.

It was so quick that he suspected Clarice had been fishing1摸鱼 [mō yú] fishing with bare hands: loafing around during work hour. with his light brain.

But looking at the message he returned, Ji Mingjiang was a little surprised.

“Clarice: You’re welcome, it’s long overdue. If you choose to enter holographic mode, it’s best to dress yourself and cover yourself with a mask. I’ve already bound a star card. You can use it directly.”

Although Ji Mingjiang had a different understanding of this legendary and decisive emperor before, It was the first time that Ji Mingjiang felt that his majesty was, uh, caring? Or should it be said that those who have personally been to the front line and led troops to win several victories have strong observational and predictive abilities?

For a while, Ji Mingjiang didn’t know how to evaluate this unexpected behavior, but he still sent a thank-you back. This time, it was probably because Clarice had finished his short fishing time. Ji Mingjiang waited for a while and then exited the normal mode after confirming that there was no reply to the message.

With the star card bound to him by Clarice, Ji Mingjiang went directly into the cloakroom after choosing the holographic mode this time.

First of all, the color of the hair needs to be changed. Silver is too conspicuous and too rare.

Looking at the hair dye in front of him, Ji Mingjiang’s eyes strayed between the two seemingly “holographic2rainbow color” colors and the starry sky hair color, and finally, after a brief battle of heaven and earth, he reached for the bottle of starry sky hair dye.

It’s better to put the seven colors aside; at least wait until he observes other people’s choices.

And the starry sky hair dye sounds reliable and good-looking, so it’s not bad to choose this one.

After Ji Mingjiang chose the hair dye, a mirror flew directly in front of him.

The exquisite yet sharp face of the mermaid was reflected on it, and before he could take a closer look, a row of user manuals immediately pressed against his face.

Ji Mingjiang: …

The veins on his forehead jumped twice, but he still followed the steps in the guide to straighten his hair.

The first step is to unlock with your fingerprint and make a purchase.

[Star card balance: -66]

“Interstellar society really likes to use biological information such as fingerprints and irises to bind various things.” Ji Mingjiang waved away the consumption reminder in front of him, and his eyes continued to sweep down.

Step 2: Shake the bottle until there is no crashing sound inside.

Step 3: Spray evenly from the root to the end of the hair and wait for one minute.

A minute later, Ji Mingjiang saw his silver hair, which was about to reach his waist, start to turn black from the top of his hair, like ink pouring downward, and soon the last touch of silver at the tip of his hair disappeared.

Ji Mingjiang was stunned, almost thinking that the starry sky’s hair color was actually black, but the moment he turned his head, the light reflected from the mirror shone on his hair.

“…”

“Fool!”

Expressing the shock in his heart succinctly, Ji Mingjiang looked at his own hair in the mirror with wide eyes.

The hair dye was not pure black as he thought but a darker shade of blue than the blue of his fishtail, which looked extraordinarily deep under the light.

As for the name Starry Sky…

Ji Mingjiang looked at the shiny dots on his hair like the Milky Way and felt as if he had seen them somewhere.

“ah……”

He exclaimed blankly, so he switched his head and tail?

Or should his tail be called the light-colored version, Starry Sky Mermaid Tail?

After tying up his long hair out of sight and out of mind, Ji Mingjiang picked up the mask and the clothes he was going to wear.

He plans to play all kinds of battle games for a while, so shirts and trousers are a must.

After pulling out a casual outfit and a cloak that covered half of his face directly from the pile of clothes, Ji Mingjiang pressed buy.

The clothing flew directly to his body after payment, and he made corresponding adjustments according to his figure.

After adjusting the position of the cloak, Ji Mingjiang stretched out his hand and opened the door of the cloakroom. The lively and noisy cries and various voices of people chatting and laughing spread to his ears.

After he stepped out, the cloakroom behind him disappeared into thin air. Ji Mingjiang blended into the crowd silently, like a drop of water in the sea.

Perhaps a special plugin has been set up.

Ji Mingjiang observed that although there are many people on the street, if there is an inadvertent collision, the two will directly pass through each other’s body as if their souls and bodies collided.

And if you communicate with others, those actions are no different from real scenes in daily life.

The holographic scene of the adult-version light brain doesn’t have a school; instead, it has a multi-level and multi-functional museum. He took a closer look, and it should correspond to the software that introduces local customs and scenery on the light brain.

After walking a little further back in the museum and turning a corner, a street with different styles of games came into view and nearly blinded him.

The gray areas Ji Mingjiang saw on the children’s light brain last time were probably games that cannot be played in the holographic world; that’s why Ji Mingjiang saw a larger game hall last time.

But in the normal light brain, where all types of games are fully open, a game hall undoubtedly cannot hold such a large number of battle games.

Therefore, it actually created a street in this holographic space alone!

From the street to the street corner, there is a row of mecha at the entrance, which forms all the game halls into a starship shape and hangs in midair. The competition in the arena is directly projected on the top of their head…

There are only display methods that Ji Mingjiang can’t think of; there is no display method that this holographic space cannot make.

All kinds of battle games are lined up on this street. Ji Mingjiang glanced at the flow of the crowd and followed to choose the starship game hall floating in midair.

Starship! Isn’t this the so-called spaceship from his previous life! If he doesn’t try this once, he’ll be sorry for the system’s decision to send him to Interstellar!

There was no paid reception at the entrance of the game hall, but a robot led Ji Mingjiang to a separate room.

After choosing the type of starship you want to drive and the map you want to try, a comprehensive calculation will be made based on this data, and finally, a payment channel will be given.

[Star Card Balance: -100]

[Star Card Balance: -28]

With the sound of the deduction prompt, the room where Ji Mingjiang was located suddenly shook slightly. When he looked again, the room that was originally empty except for a control console suddenly turned into the command cabin of a starship.

The console in front of Ji Mingjiang, which was just used to select models and maps, has now become a command center.

The original wall in front suddenly turned into a huge screen. On the left side of the screen is the boundless universe, and in the lower right corner is a map showing the distribution of enemies and friends with red and green marks.

The buttons and push-pull levers of different shapes and colors are neatly arranged on the silver-gray metal-cased command console. Ji Mingjiang’s eagerness to try is clearly reflected in it.

The game hall gave a novice tutorial very thoughtfully. After confirming that the player has memorized the functions of each button and push-pull lever, the originally bright lights in the command cabin suddenly turned red!

Sirens suddenly filled the entire command cabin.

[Level 1 alert! There is an enemy attack! Warning! There is an enemy attack! ]

Accompanied by the shrill siren and the faintly ominous red light, Ji Mingjiang heard about his mission this time.

An anxious male voice rang in his ears: “Commander! It’s the Federation starship! Those bastards have us surrounded! However, the information we intercepted and detected this time in the turbulence of the universe cannot be transmitted back to the empire. This information concerns the survival of the Empire; what should we do…”

At the end, Ji Mingjiang even heard the sound of choking and pounding the wall.

The overly realistic prologue made him almost forget for a moment that he was in the game instead of actually shouldering the lives of others and the future of the empire as a commander.

Is this something that Clarice has to face when he is not yet an adult?

This idea and His Majesty’s initially calm and indifferent figure flashed through Ji Mingjiang’s mind, and what finally remained was his overly young face.

“Then he’s really something.” Ji Mingjiang, who died at the age of 28 in his previous life, exclaimed in a fearsome and admiring tone.

Then he raised his hand to zoom in on the map in the lower-right corner.

A dozen or so solitary starships were surrounded by nearly a hundred red dots, with additional circled meteorite piles in the distance.

Ji Mingjiang chuckled lightly, his eyes filled with impatience and excitement.

He reached out and took hold of the push-pull lever. When his palm first touched the cool metal, he closed it for a moment and then pushed the lever directly to the bottom!

“If we’re surrounded, of course, we make a way out!”

In the midst of the extreme speed as well as the continuous roar of the cannon, Ji Mingjiang answered the question of the voice just now.
