543: Chapter 542 Little Jingwei!

Ma Jinlun stood where he was, stunned for a full half-minute.

He felt as if his brain had been formatted; apart from shock, he could not summon any other emotion.

The magnificent sight of Pangu Plaza, along with everything his sensory organs could perceive, had completely shattered all of Ma Jinlun's imagination and understanding of the term "Virtual World" over the past twenty-plus years.

It was too real.

It was truly too real!

It was so real that he couldn't distinguish the boundary between the virtual and reality.

The faint, elegant scent of sandalwood permeating the air, the clear, resonant cries of cranes in the distance, the wisps of breeze brushing against his cheeks...

This was absolutely no different from the real world!

"Old Ma!"

A familiar voice, trembling slightly, came from his side.

Ma Jinlun turned his head abruptly.

Zhang Xiaoya was standing not far away, also looking around with a dazed expression. Her pretty face was filled with indescribable shock.

"Xiaoya!"

Ma Jinlun called out subconsciously and walked quickly toward her.

Both of them reached out almost simultaneously, wanting to grab each other.

It was as if only by doing this could the two of them confirm each other's existence in this dreamlike, strange world and find a trace of reality and security.

When their fingertips touched, both of them shuddered.

This sensation was incredibly real and incredibly familiar.

It was no different from when they held hands during the day!

"This... this..."

Zhang Xiaoya's lips trembled slightly, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Ma Jinlun did not speak. His mind was still in turmoil.

Refusing to believe it, he raised his other hand again and pinched his own thigh even harder than he had done in the container.

"Hiss!"

A sharp pain surged through him. It hurt far more than the pinch from just a moment ago!

The pain made Ma Jinlun gasp sharply. However, the expression on his face gradually shifted from extreme shock to a near-manic excitement.

"It's real! Xiaoya! Everything is real!"

"This is the Nanke Dreamscape!"

"It's just like the transmigration in web novels!"

"We have transmigrated! We have transmigrated to a virtual world exactly like the real world!"

Zhang Xiaoya was also infected by his emotions. Her cheeks flushed with excitement.

Just as the two were excitedly about to embrace, a soft and pleasant electronic female voice rang out from thin air in front of them.

"Mr. Ma Jinlun, Ms. Zhang Xiaoya."

"Welcome to the Nanke Dreamscape."

The two were startled and looked toward the source of the sound.

They saw a two-dimensional virtual female figure dressed in sci-fi palace attire, transformed into a thirty-centimeter-tall light projection, floating in front of them with a sweet smile on her face.

It was none other than the exclusive AI Assistant, "AI Assistant," who had provided their beginner guidance in the container earlier.

"Aren't you the AI Assistant for the Kunlun Armor? How... how can you also be in the Nanke Dreamscape?"

Ma Jinlun was also somewhat curious about the appearance of the AI Assistant.

"Mr. Ma Jinlun, this is my home!"

The AI Assistant floated in mid-air. Her image was very cute and well-behaved, and her smile was very sweet.

"The Nanke Dreamscape is a virtual reality network built on the 'Jiuzhang Quantum Supercomputer,' and as an AI Assistant, my server is naturally rooted within the Jiuzhang Quantum Supercomputer!"
