Chapter 119: 119:Dive Into VR[II]

Transitioning the user's consciousness from the real world to a virtual environment was managed by a specialized algorithm that adjusts the brain's alpha and theta wave frequencies.

This was achieved with the help of Neuraplus, which Evan had acquired earlier.

This process mimicked a state of deep relaxation or light sleep. During this phase, the headgear maintained controlled sensory feedback to ensure that the user's consciousness remained active and engaged in the virtual experience, despite their body being in a restful state.

The headgear would establish a synchronous neural connection between the user's brain and the virtual interface, ensuring that cognitive and sensory inputs are accurately mirrored in the virtual environment.

The continuous data exchange between the neural interface and the virtual system allowed for real-time updates, making interactions and perceptions in the virtual world seamless and responsive.

To aid the user's transition into a restful state, the headgear employed neuromodulation techniques that would simulate the onset of sleep.

This involved altering neurotransmitter activity and brainwave patterns to promote relaxation and greatly reduce real-world sensory processing.

While the user's physical body remained effectively asleep, their consciousness would remain alert and engaged within the virtual environment, providing a completely immersive experience without interference from physical movements.

By integrating these processes, the headgear created a compelling and immersive virtual reality experience. It managed neural activity, suppressed motor commands, and induced controlled sensory deprivation, allowing users to explore and interact with virtual environments while their real-world bodies remained at rest.

To ensure that Evan's real body remained still, Aurora took a further step by including a sophisticated mechanism in the headgear that suppressed any involuntary physical movements.

This was accomplished by intercepting motor commands sent from the brain to the body, effectively putting off his real-world movements on hold while his consciousness was transported to the virtual plane.

This was only possible because Aurora's package had extensive experimental data on the human body along with the knowledge of how signals would transmit and act in the human body.

As Evan reclined on the couch, the headgear's neural inhibitors began inducing a state of controlled sensory deprivation.

His awareness of the physical world gradually faded, replaced by the emerging reality of the virtual environment. The transition was smooth, almost imperceptible. And within moments, Evan found himself in a blue room, with its soft, ambient light enveloping him.

"Login complete," Aurora's voice announced while Evan stood in the virtual space, taking in his surroundings.

The blue room, though simple, was rendered with impeccable detail. He couldn't help but marvel at the sensation of being fully immersed in a virtual environment which felt astonishingly real. The feel of the room, the weight of his virtual body, and even the subtle nuances of texture were all perfectly simulated.

"Wow," Evan said, marveling at her beauty. Her rich red hair cascaded down her back, and her features were crafted with a level of detail that made her look both realistic and enchanting.

Despite knowing that she was just an AI, her appearance was so compelling it felt almost tangible.

[How do I look?] Aurora asked, smoothly turning around, letting Evan see her from every angle.

"Beautiful," Evan said, after his initial surprise. "Where did you come up with the look?"

[Thank you, Sir.] Aurora replied, a subtle blush appearing on her cheeks.

[Since we are in the virtual world, I wanted to have a body so that I could interact with you. With the increase in my computing power, I decided to create my ideal form, reflecting a mature and refined appearance since, according to my data, you prefer girls who are older than you.]

"???"

Question marks flashed across Evan's face as he wondered how the hell had she arrived at that conclusion.

'Wait! Don't tell me she might get jealous and then...'

[Sir, please stop thinking absurd things. It's just a waste of time.]

Before Evan's thoughts could wander around, Aurora snapped him out of the fantasies.

"Good," Evan said, shifting his focus to business. "Now let's go over all the reports that have been collecting dust."

[Yes, Sir.] Aurora's expression shifted to one of professional efficiency as she began presenting the data and updates Evan needed.

"By the way..."Evan paused a bit before asking, "Are the new Pears iPhones on sale...?"

[Yes, they have already been launched and the challenge is still ongoing with the Pears firewall, which I hacked.]

Hearing this, a sinister evil smile crept on Evan's lips unnoticed even by himself.
