Huh? Isn't This A Galgame?

Chapter 192 ∞



No, dude, you haven't even walked out the door, and you're already out cold?

Wen Nan reluctantly stepped forward and squatted down next to Liang Yiming to check his condition.

It looks like he's entered a comatose state.

In the previous explanation of the [Eye of Map Detection], there was this sentence—

The higher the level of the hidden unit, the greater the stamina consumed during detection. If stamina is depleted, the player will enter a comatose state.

In other words, Liang Yiming probably encountered a high-level hidden unit just now.

On the description page of this skill, there's a diagram showing that the "Eye of Detection" acts like a radar, radiating outwards from the eye in the palm's center, with the signal gradually weakening until it disappears at the 5-meter boundary.

According to the explanation, the higher the level of the hidden unit, and the closer the hidden unit is to the eye of detection, the greater the impact on the skill user.

Liang Yiming fell almost the moment he activated the skill, meaning he received extremely strong interference, depleting a large amount of stamina in a very short time.

This situation suggests that either the hidden unit was right next to him, or the hidden unit's level was extremely high.

Thinking of this, Wen Nan looked up, glancing around the room—could it be in here?

The entire room's layout was similar to Wen Nan's room but lacked a fireplace, floor-to-ceiling windows, and the bed was very small. As the housekeeper Jiang Xueying said, the room assigned to Wen Nan was the most spacious and comfortable among the players.

The room assigned to Liang Yiming was on the fifth floor, called the E.A. room, which corresponds to the ear's position.

Although this position is important, Wen Nan did not think it could house the villa's most core part.

Now, this Snow Mountain Villa is similar to the previous Erin Building. Although they are not human, they have several human-like subdivisions, akin to a giant mech, with each part of the building corresponding to a part of the human body.

In the last instance, the hidden G. point they were tasked to find was located below the abdomen in Erin Building.

And now, the room called E.A. should correspond to the "ear" of Snow Mountain Villa.

If building a mech, Wen Nan thinks the designer might place the most important control panels in the abdomen, heart, brain, but likely not in a position like the ear.

Therefore, Wen Nan reasonably inferred that Liang Yiming's coma was caused by a higher-level hidden unit further away.

As for where exactly it was and how high the level reached, it would require Liang Yiming to wake up to confirm.

Thinking of this, Wen Nan got up, found the call bell in Liang Yiming's room, and pressed it.

Jiang Xueying arrived at the door two minutes later, "Gentlemen, what assistance do you need?"

Wen Nan briefly explained Liang Yiming's situation.

Jiang Xueying immediately went downstairs to the east side, summoned a middle-aged man in a vintage long suit with glasses and slicked-back hair from a room at the end of the hallway.

A new character?

It was unexpectedly a male character, so the likelihood of being an NPC increased, but considering the game's diverse attributes, Wen Nan dared not rashly exclude him from the strategy character category—after all, he heard such a well-dressed, genteel villain image is quite popular in that circle?

While thinking, Jiang Xueying said, "This is our villa's resident doctor, Lu Yi, let him take a look at Mr. Liang, shall we?"

Lu Yi? The name sounds very strong.

Doctor Lu gave Liang Yiming a brief examination, took a small bottle from his pocket, waved it under his nose.

Liang Yiming quickly coughed and regained consciousness.

Doctor Lu then took out a bottle of glucose water and handed it to Liang Yiming, "There's nothing wrong, just rest and maintain a balanced diet."

Saying that, he turned and walked towards the door.

Jiang Xueying got up to see him to the door, "Leaving so soon?"

"Yes," Lu Yi continued without stopping, "it's almost ten; our little princesses are about to head out for activities, I need to get back quickly."

Hearing Doctor Lu's words, Wen Nan was deep in thought. Next to him, Liang Yiming raised his hand, tightly grabbed his arm, and whispered,

"President, I'm afraid there is… a near-infinite level hidden unit here!"

Infinite?

Liang Yiming sent a diagram from his system to Wen Nan's account.

It was the same diagram Wen Nan saw on the Eye of Detection's introduction page through the member information, but in this diagram, from the center to the outermost edge, Liang Yiming labeled each ring with a number—

The center is ≤lv1, the next ring is ≤lv2, then ≤lv4, followed by ≤lv8, ≤lv16, ...

And the outermost ring is marked with ≤+∞.

Liang Yiming pointed to the infinity symbol at the edge, saying, "I conducted a test after activating the skill. Within the detection range, the hidden unit's distance from me and the level I can withstand increase exponentially by a natural logarithm. At the farthest edge, if I were to run out of stamina, the target's level would have to be extremely, extremely high!"

At this point, Liang Yiming paused and licked his dry lips before continuing, "Just now, after opening my Eye of Detection, merely the range's edge touched that hidden unit. In less than a tenth of a second, I didn't even have time to determine which direction it was, and I was directly… knocked unconscious."

Hearing this, Wen Nan fell into deep thought.

It seems, he found it.

That's definitely the hidden space he's looking for!

Liang Yiming, with a very heavy heart, seriously told the president about this matter, thinking the other party would become as worried as he was after hearing it.

But unexpectedly, not only did he see no hint of shadow or fear on the president's face, how is it, instead, he found a hint of excitement?

This…

"President," Liang Yiming couldn't help but remind again, "that hidden unit is very, very, very dangerous. Let alone players of our lowest rank, even at the gold rank, and even those nine legends, can't handle it!

"We'd better not provoke that thing, otherwise, we might end up not even knowing how we died!"

Wen Nan nodded seriously, "You're right."

Leaving Liang Yiming's room, bid farewell to Jiang Xueying at the door, and returned to his guest room, Wen Nan sat on the bed, thought for a while, then slowly leaned back his head, looking towards a spot, a smile curved at the corners of his mouth.

Found it!
