Chapter 51: Suspicious
Chapter 51: Suspicious
"It\'s so strange here..."
Anyone who set foot on the Sex Planet was instantly struck by a sense of intoxication.
"This is a paid planet, just like the prepaid game cards from 100 years ago. Once you\'re here, even if you don\'t do anything, you\'ll still get charged by the hour, but the hourly fee isn\'t that high."
"Does this planet only cater to adults?"
"That\'s right. Not only does it cater to adults, there are different categories, like straight men, straight women, men on men, women on women, anything you can think of. Aside from categories based on sexual orientations, they also cater to all types of fetishes. For example, I\'m into all types of bodily fluids. Last time, I went to Vomit Island, and..."
"Stop! I\'m not into that."
"Alright, alright, we\'re here today to help you blow off some steam."
Hook led Adam along the breast of the valkyrie and arrived at her lips, where a massive seductive witch was standing.
The witch was also enormous, but not as huge as the valkyrie.
The valkyrie beneath their feet stretched on for over 10 kilometers, while the witch was only around 200 meters tall, making her roughly comparable in height to a skyscraper in the real world.
The witch was seated beside the lips of the valkyrie, holding her staff while keeping her legs tucked firmly together. There were some people nearby who wanted to enter, but they were denied entry by her.
"This is a high-end venue, so you\'ll be needing your VIP card."
VIP cards in the real world could be used in the Metaverse by entering a password, and after displaying their VIP cards to the witch, she gave them a seductive smile.
"Come inside and warm up your bodies, boys. It\'s too cold outside."
The witch grabbed ahold of Adam and Hook as she spoke, then spread her legs open and thrust them directly into her body.
Upon entering the witch\'s body, the first thing that Adam felt was a wave of heat. After that, he was greeted by the sight of a super high-end pub. Everyone was seated on the fleshy walls of the pub, watching a show being put on by countless performers before them.
Among them were virtual idols and data of real people, presenting a great deal of diversity.
In terms of size and class, this pub was countless times superior to the pub that Adam had visited in the real world a few days ago. If it weren\'t for the fact that some people preferred the feeling of experiencing things in reality, there would\'ve been no competition at all for this place.
Adam and Hook ordered some drinks, and after wandering through the hall for a while, a virtual figure approached them and struck up a conversation.
"Hey there, handsome, we offer private one-person services here. You can enter one of our booths and enjoy a one-to-one dance show from one of our performers. What would you like? A witch? A horsewoman? A basketball player? A bunny rabbit?"
With each role that the virtual figure was rattling off, she would adopt the corresponding outfit, and the transitions were happening so quickly that it was almost dizzying to behold.
"I\'ll take a horsewoman. I\'m going on ahead, you can do whatever you want."
After one of the options was selected, a horsewoman clad in a suit of silver armor that was dancing seductively strode down from the stage in the massive hall, then entered a room with Hook.
Adam considered his preferences for a moment, but he didn\'t know what he wanted.
"Just get me a normal one."
"A normal one? Would you like... a female office worker?"
"Sure." Adam nodded in response. "Oh, by the way, I want a real person, not a virtual one."
"I understand. Some people aren\'t really into virtual people."
The virtual hostess gave Adam a seductive wink, then called over a middle-aged woman.
All of the performers who were able to work here were either extremely skilled in their craft, or were very beautiful and empathetic.
The middle-aged woman in the office worker uniform belonged to the latter group.
"Hello, Boss, let\'s go to room 666."
The woman was very polite and cheerful, and she led Adam into a fleshy room before beginning her service.
She was very observant, and after noticing that Adam wasn\'t saying or doing anything after entering the room, she knew that he had to be new here, so she actively struck up a conversation.
"All clients who prefer real people, and particularly office workers, like to ask me what I did for work prior to this. Do you know what I worked as in the past, Boss?"
"I don\'t," Adam replied with a shake of his head.
"I used to be a receptionist at a technology company."
"Why did you decide to change jobs?"
"For two reasons, the first of which is money. Back when I was a receptionist, I was actually just a pretty face anyway. All I did was greet clients and perform some simple tasks that even the most basic robots could complete, so it wasn\'t a very fulfilling job. Most importantly, I was only getting 3,800 a month, which had to be one of the lowest salaries in the entire company."
"What\'s the second reason?"
"The second reason is because I have good looks and can dance. Back at school, I was a cheerleader. Let me show you."
The woman began to dance in a cheerful and energetic manner as she spoke, and halfway through her dance, she dove straight into Adam\'s arms, and the rest flowed naturally.
Even though Adam was a blank slate, he was still a normal man, and he had a full score in his physical health index, so he was even more hot-blooded than the average man. As a result, he performed quite well, even though it was his first time.
After that experience, he really did feel as if his mind had become a bit more relaxed.
"You were so good..."
"Is there a difference even in here?"
Adam was referring to the Metaverse.
"Yes, there are pills that can be taken to alter one\'s data, but I can tell that you\'re really good just as you are..." The woman was just about to continue and say something else when her expression abruptly changed, and she suddenly became very serious as she said, "You should be more brave."
"Who?"
"I said you should be more brave. Right now, you\'re too timid and cautious."
"Brave? What are you referring to?" Adam was rather perplexed, and his relaxed mood instantly faded as he became tense and anxious again. "Are you saying I should\'ve been brave and assertive with my movements earlier?"
"I\'m saying you should be more brave when facing adapters. There isn\'t much time left for you. Right now, there are people who are planning to use psychic mutants to launch another terrorist attack. Their plan is to ignite resentment toward adapters in the heart of the general public, and they\'ll use that resentment to establish a committee to control and regulate adapters."
"Who are you? What are you talking about?"
Adam pushed the woman away from him, and immediately thereafter, the music in the room completely stopped. At the same time, the surrounding scene also began to change.
The woman before him transformed into the valkyrie that was over 10 kilometers tall, and at this moment, he was standing above the clouds.
"Be careful of psychic mutants... Be more brave... You don\'t have much time left..."
"What are you talking about? Who are you? Tell me who you are..."
Adam wanted to ask more questions, but a faint voice suddenly rang out beside his ears.
"Are you alright? What\'s wrong?"
Adam returned to his senses, and after his vision focused, he discovered that he was still in the same booth as before. The middle-aged woman was still with him, and she was looking at him with a concerned expression.
"What happened? You suddenly went into a trance. Did you go offline due to a bad connection?"
"I\'m fine."
The woman\'s expression seemed to be genuine, and Adam had heard that it was possible to invade one\'s mind in the Metaverse.
This was a very suspicious incident.
