The news that many locals still didn't know was captured by the system in real time.
This is really... interesting!

On the other hand, the player community also began to stir.
This time was the peak period for players to log off, which, converted to real-time, was about when some office drone players were about to leave for work.
The virtual pods allowed players to enter the game in a semi-sleep state while ensuring basic mental rest, but only for the time spent playing in the game.
Exiting the virtual game to access forums or related virtual networks would immediately cancel this semi-sleep state.
Moreover, the semi-sleep mode couldn't fully replace sleep; the players eventually had to sleep an additional 2-3 hours outside the game in order to stay sharp for the whole day.
At this moment, many players who had just logged off and were preparing to catch up on sleep were jolted awake by this piece of news.
