Previously, when Xu Huo came to the Eye of Platinum, Xin Rong mentioned the Energy Conversion Chip. It is said to be an energy chip with low cost but capable of tremendous power, not even requiring precious materials. This is not just about reducing the cost of weapons, but also maximizes the avoidance of thermal weapon restrictions set in the game.

"Not that one." Xin Rong waved his hand, "The Energy Conversion Chip didn’t have any follow-up. The latest generation of weapons has improved in terms of energy, with power better than previous products."

The weapons of the Eye of Platinum update very quickly, with Artifact Makers and engineers constantly innovating, which is a major reason why the Eye of Platinum is so famous in the game.

Xu Huo has seen many armed robots, but compared to humans, they are definitely less flexible. They are fine for maintaining order in cities and large-scale battles, but for players, they are somewhat dispensable for confrontation.

Mentioning armed robots, Xin Rong and others are experts inside. The armed robots of the Eye of Platinum are mainly sold to other districts. Whether used by district governments to maintain order or bought by influential power as bodyguards, they are good choices.

The only downside of robots is that they are easily rendered completely useless by interference. This is still considered good because there are also robots on the battlefield that turn against their side due to command issues. The robots from the Eye of Platinum are popular because their signal receivers are special and less prone to interference.

Of course, in this regard, the Eye of Platinum has also been continually innovating, developing jammers as well.

The Mechanical Castle has not yet released information on their robots, so Xin Rong and others speculated on the parts used in the robots based on what they currently know, and they began arguing, especially as some of their families are in the mechanical parts business, arguing intensely over whether they have made technical breakthroughs.

They simply believe their technology at the Eye of Platinum is already advanced, and Mechanical Castle cannot surpass them to innovate this technology.

These young people trust Bai Kou a lot, but they have more faith in their own Artifact Makers and engineers.

"Stop arguing so much!" Xin Rong called them to a halt, "Once I take apart a robot, it will be clear to all of us!"

Some people at the same table knew that Xu Huo had a Platinum Badge from Bai Kou in his hand. Although they didn’t say it outright, the expectation to obtain a robot in advance was evident in their words.

The conversation soon shifted to eating, drinking, and having fun after chatting for a short while.

Due to the advanced technology, much of the entertainment in the Eye of Platinum already utilizes holographic simulation. Games similar to holographic instances are numerous. Not only do ordinary people play, but players sometimes enter to train. The realism of the games is almost like having a second life. Whether pursuing the experience of others or simply seeking thrills, everything can be done safely and harmlessly, so some minor entertainment methods can no longer bring excitement.

Of course, there are also those who pursue extreme sensations, seeking the feeling of potential death. Such risky projects are usually available elsewhere, requiring a contract to play.

Other than Xin Rong, who often enters instances, the others present have barely struggled for survival in an instance, so when adventure was mentioned, they were still very interested in exploring some rarely traveled areas or districts.

"We’re going to play in a Mutated Forest in a couple of days. Xin Rong, come with us," someone suggested.

Xin Rong was a bit tipsy, "No, no, doing instances is tiring enough for me."

The people sitting next to him laughed, "Your family could easily get you Grey Player status, so why insist on game adventure? It’s dangerous."

Xin Rong glanced at Xu Huo, who was savoring wine alone, and said, "You don’t get it. Heroes always go it alone. My family is all about business. There has to be a powerful player."

Although others didn’t quite agree, they still expressed understanding, after all, there are many ways to make a name for yourself.

A group of people chatted into the late night. People today have abundant energy; not sleeping for a day or two doesn’t affect them. When leaving the bar, they went to catch another program, but Xin Rong and Xu Huo left early and went to Xin Rong’s residence in a commercial area. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The house was on the top floor, very spacious. Upon entering, the robot promptly arranged some things. Kicking off his shoes and lying down on the sofa, Xin Rong said, "I stay here when I have nothing to do. From here, you can see the most bustling areas of the Eye of Platinum. There are light shows everywhere at night, pleasing to the eyes."

Although he said so, his gaze didn’t wander but rather showed slight annoyance, saying, "I used to like it, but after one instance, I fell into an Alien’s lair. You wouldn’t believe it - when I opened my eyes, all around were glowing eyeballs. That scene...it gives me a psychological shadow. Sometimes, when I suddenly wake up from sleep, the lights outside scare me. You understand that feeling, right?"

Xu Huo said nothing, having the robot pass him a glass of water to Xin Rong.

"Honestly, I’m also a Super Evolver; my mental fortitude can’t compare to yours," Xin Rong rubbed his forehead, "I’ve recently scheduled an appointment with a psychologist, hoping to adjust myself before the next instance."

He has always been wealthy and courageous, yet he can still be scared into a psychological shadow.

Xu Huo asked a few more questions, and Xin Rong explained the instance in detail, emphasizing its eeriness and the terror of the Aliens.

"On the first day in the instance, three Rank-B players were killed by Aliens. Rank-B players, belonging to the strong side in the game, died so easily, like ordinary people without the strength to fight back."

"If my spiritual power weren’t strong, I might have fallen there too."

"This ticket was what I got after completing the instance last time. I feel like the game is giving me instance difficulties that are increasingly hard to handle, beyond what I understood before."

"After going through so many instances and districts, I didn’t expect there to be a place in the world that could completely renew my cognition."

"Old Xu, I can only talk to you about this. My other friends definitely wouldn’t understand."

Xin Rong propped his hands on his knees, showing a deep fatigue in his expression, "I don’t know how long I can keep going..."

People who go in and out of instances for long periods often have some psychological issues.

"Staying normal in such an instance environment is actually abnormal," Xu Huo comforted him, "You’re normal."

Xin Rong gave a dry laugh without special meaning, then leaned back and fell asleep on the sofa.

After leaving the Fish Banquet and delaying a few days at the Old Holy Sword Society, and without adequate rest on the train, Xu Huo was equally exhausted today. Not bothering to look for a bed, he sat in a chair and slept.

They slept until noon the next day when someone from the Xin Family came calling to wake them up.
