Chapter 106 The changing world (4)

A simulation to measure Jaeyoung’s synchro rate.

Research director Kim Moon-sik and his research team, who were watching Jae-young’s performance from the outside to precisely measure Jae-young’s synchro rate, who showed ridiculous numbers, were in shock and couldn’t shut their mouths.

“Nonsense… did you just see it?”

“This crazy… reaction speed is what that is. Does that make sense?”

A detailed inspection that will normally be completed in less than 10 minutes. However, Jaeyoung’s examination time was already well over an hour.

[Clear stage 29. 30 level standby. 2 minutes remaining.]

Jaeyoung, who has already snorted the previous world record and tossed it into the trash can. The atmosphere in the laboratory was heating up with a strange sense of tension and excitement at the fact that they had reached the 30th stage, which exists only in a setting that could not even dare to imagine now.

“Are you checking the relevant data properly?”

At first, Kim Moon-sik, the head of the research department, tried to test Jae-young amid distrust. However, when he saw the results far beyond human limits, he began to give orders to the researchers with a red face as if he was more excited than anyone else.

“Check where the limit to reach the maximum synchronization rate is! Not only the signal response speed, but also the operation rate in information exchange and the realization rate of the transmission signal sent by the brain are precisely measured without missing anything! okay?”

“yes! All right.”

More than 10 researchers were watching the monitors without looking away for a second, recording something diligently. Seeing their heated appearance, Professor Kim Tae-hoon had a lot of questions, but he didn’t have time to ask, so he quietly asked his student, Researcher Kang Pil-jun, who was watching with a relieved face from behind.

“Piljun, what is the situation?”

“Ah, Professor.”

“Let’s get the story right. What on earth are they so excited about and what is the meaning of this prosecutor now?”

Researcher Kang Pil-joon put on an apologetic expression as if he felt some guilt at Professor Kim Tae-hoon’s questioning, not the questioning. Didn’t he create the current situation by making an unreasonable request to Professor Kim Tae-hoon to attract Jae-young without giving a proper explanation? So, in this chaotic situation, Pil-Jun told Professor Tae-Hoon Kim a detailed story.

“So… do you mean that those with a high synchro rate will become important talents leading the future virtual reality industry?”

“Yes. Through the product called ‘Lucid Dream’, which will be released soon, people will realize what existed in their imaginations into reality, and the added value and related industries derived through it are truly limitless.”

To play Arcadia, the minimum synchronization rate required to feel the five human senses is 10-20%. However, in order to realize what he imagined in virtual reality, a higher synchro rate is required. The minimum standard is 30%. However, most people were not satisfied with this basic number.

“Then, if the 30% synchro rate is not satisfied, is it impossible to use that lucid dream?”

“That’s not it. The research project we are currently pursuing is also to increase the efficiency of Lucid Dream so that it can operate smoothly at a lower synchro rate. Even if the synchro rate is less than 30%, individual variation exists, but through continuous and repetitive training, it is possible to raise the level of implementation to a certain level. But it is relatively inefficient.”

Professor Kim Tae-hun, thinking about something with a serious expression at Pil-jun’s words. As the head professor of the Department of Virtual Reality Engineering, he realized that this is the most important thing to nurture talents in related industries in the future.

‘Synchronous rate…..’

Prof. Kim Tae-hoon is leading the reform of the entire department with the goal of nurturing future talent who will open the door to the virtual reality industry in the future, if not Arcadia. He became very curious about the research team of Director Kim Moon-shik, who is researching actual knowledge and technology more than the research papers that have been poured out so far. And to their disciple Jae-young, whom they watch enthusiastically.

* * *

While Professor Kim Tae-hoon was lost in thought while dreaming of something, Jae-young was screaming as he progressed through the 30 steps.

coo coo coo coo.

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

“Damn it! Is this the level you want to break!”

The ball, which was one at first, increased to twenty before I knew it, and was fiercely flying around Jaeyoung, attacking every gap. In addition, at some point, the colorless terrain was transformed into an air filled with irregularly rising scaffolding, and even gravity was irregularly reversed.

Wow.

Twenty balls flew at a blind spot at the same time, subtly distorting the reference point of gravity, creating a situation that was absolutely impossible to avoid. But at that moment, Jaeyoung took a deep breath and stopped.

Whoops.

Twenty balls flew at a speed like bullets.

But for that moment, it was suspended in the air as if time had stopped.

The balls appear to be completely stationary, but are slowly flying in to deliver a fatal blow to Jaeyoung, like a snail crawling. Looking at them, Jaeyoung frowned at the headache that seemed to be stabbed with an awl and slowly moved his body.

‘Uh… Goddamn….. It’s so hard…..’

Uuuuuuuuuu.

just a few steps The moment Jae-young breathes out again after taking a hard step as if it were too much for her to move to a place just a few steps away from the point where the balls were fiercely aiming.

Kwakqua Kwak Kwak-?-The

balls that were stopped in the air as if they were waiting, flew in the place where the reinforcement was at a fierce speed as if it was going out. And the clear notification sound that comes along with it.

[Clear stage 30. Clear all stages.]

Along with a fanfare sound, a woman’s voice congratulated me.

[Complete recording precision measurement results. The simulation ends.]

Chwiiyiprofit.

With the notification sound, the capsule lid opens with the sound of compressed air being released. After the connection was terminated, Jae-young, who slowly opened her eyes and returned to reality, staggered as she got up from a headache and dizziness.

“Student Jaeyoung! are you okay?”

“hey! Bring water, water!”

The research team makes a fuss and clings to Jae-young, who is staggering and unable to control herself. And when they saw the blood flowing from Jaeyoung’s nose, they screamed in fright.

“hey! Bring toilet paper! Call the medical staff right away! hurry!”

Overreacting, stumped researchers. In response to their reaction, Jaeyoung grabbed his throbbing hair and said with a burdened expression.

“I’m fine. Just take a break and you’ll be fine.”

“But why don’t you take the test first? There may be side effects that you do not know because there is no one who has been simulating for a long time like you.”

“Let it be, student Jaeyoung. Whatever it is, isn’t health first?”

Jae-young, who was not able to refuse the active recommendation of Professor Kim Tae-hoon and Research Director Kim Moon-shik, and was even consulted by a medical staff residing at Arcadia Co., Ltd. While he was waiting for the test results, Professor Kim Tae-hoon and Research Director Kim Moon-sik were talking with serious faces.

“I need to thoroughly verify Student Jaeyoung’s simulation record again, but at the last moment in the 30th stage, the synchro rate soared to 99%, albeit temporarily. That’s a really ridiculous number.”

“99%…? What does that mean?”

“It means that the brain has become almost completely in sync with the machine…we don’t know exactly what that means. It will be an assignment to study related data from time to time.”

For Kim Moon-shik, Jae-young is nothing short of a new research project. In Jae-young’s record, who completed the measurement perfectly by clearing stage 30, he could see that there was no falsehood or bravado mixed with what researcher Kang Pil-joon had previously reported.

“First of all, I must apologize for my doubts. Average synchro rate 91.24%. Even taking into account that there is some margin of error, anything over 90% seems certain. Student Jaeyoung probably has the highest number on the planet.”

A statement like a guarantee by Director Kim Moon-shik, who is leading the research in virtual reality technology. With those words, he asked Professor Taehoon Kim with a serious face.

“May I ask for your cooperation so that student Jaeyoung can participate as a research subject in a project that is being conducted in our laboratory on a regular basis? Of course, you have to ask your opinion first, but I’m asking because I think you’ll think a little more positively if Professor Kim Tae-hoon, your advisor, persuades you.”

“If that’s the case, I’m not going to help you a little…”

Jaeyoung is the student he’s in charge of. No matter how much safety is considered as the top priority, virtual reality technology that explores and interferes with the unknown area of the human brain. Since he could not predict the dangers of being the subject of experimentation and research on these technologies, Professor Taehoon Kim put on a puzzled expression at the request of the research director.

“However, if student Jaeyoung actively cooperates with our research, we promise to cooperate a lot.”

“What kind of cooperation are you talking about…?”

Professor Kim Tae-hoon takes an interest in the promise of cooperation. In response to his question, Director Kim Moon-sik said with his eyes shining.

“I heard rumors. Seomin University’s Department of Computer Engineering is being completely reorganized into the Department of Virtual Reality Engineering. Considering that research on related technologies is still in its infancy, it was an innovation that was close to being disruptive.”

Virtual reality studies, where only a few people have the level to be called experts. In particular, there was too much information that had not been disclosed yet, so there were still too many things lacking to make it the main focus of the Faculty of Engineering, which was established for the purpose of cultivating talents who could practically utilize it. And the head of the research department, Kim Moon-sik, had the position and authority to satisfy Professor Kim Tae-hoon’s thirst.

“If Jaeyoung student cooperates with the research project in our laboratory…. We will sign an agreement with Seomin University’s Department of Virtual Reality Engineering to nurture future talents who will lead virtual reality, and we will support the research of related technologies as much as possible. .”

“What?”

As Professor Taehoon Kim, this is an offer that can never be refused. His proposal was so sweet because it was after I had heard in detail from his student Piljun about the existence of lucid dream, the key to leading the virtual reality industry.

“Think carefully. We can also lead technological progress through talented people with high synchro rates, and we can also raise the status of Seomin University’s Department of Virtual Reality Engineering, so everyone can benefit.”

Famous professors from well-known universities have already sent love calls to Argos, the creator of the virtual reality system, for cooperation in research on virtual reality technology, but all of them are being ignored. In such a situation, it was clear that if a practical research agreement was signed with Arcadia, the status of the Department of Virtual Reality Engineering at Seomin University would be higher than anywhere else.

“Kheuheum… over there Jaeyoung student…?”

That is why Professor Kim Tae-hoon approached Jae-young with softer and warmer eyes than ever before and asked. As an educator and as a thorough researcher, he abandoned his convictions that he had never abandoned.

“Don’t you think you need an A?”

In this way, Professor Kim Tae-Hoon was able to obtain Jae-Young’s cooperation. After promising unconditional A grades in major classes, regardless of attendance and test scores.
