Chapter 36 What is Synchro Rate? (1)

“Student Jaeyoung, would you like to check the numbers first?”

A researcher who asks with a bright smile. In response to his question, Jaeyoung walked forward slowly with a puzzled expression on his face.

“Now...then put on a helmet, eat comfortably and keep breathing normally.”

The assistant who came with him moved around busily, attaching the electrodes attached to the helmet to Jaeyoung's face and head, and then connected the laptop screen to the screen in the auditorium and said.

“Ready to measure.”

At those words, researcher Piljun Kang nodded and said with his eyes shining.

“Shall we check it now? How much synchro rate does Jaeyoung show?”

A measurement switch pressed with everyone's attention on it. As the helmet started to work, a strange graph appeared on the monitor in the auditorium, and the number slowly began to rise.

“The machine starts to determine how much information the brain receives through the electrical signals sent and received from the electrodes attached to the head. Normally, if it's over 10%, there's no problem playing Arcadia... Huh...?”

Jaeyoung's graph continues to rise explosively even though it has exceeded 10%. Seeing this, Pil-Jun stopped talking and stared blankly at the monitor with a clear expression of bewilderment on his face.

20%.

30%.

40%.

Jaeyoung's synchro rate goes up without stopping. The eyes of Pil-Jun and the assistant researcher grew as if they were about to pop out, just like the endless graph.

“What is this?”

“Daejangnim! This can't be...!”

“Look here, Piljun. But what the hell is going on?”

When Jae-young's synchro rate exceeded 50%, Professor Tae-hoon Kim hurriedly questioned the reaction of the two, who stuttered and babble with a shocked look on their faces, but the two looked like they were seeing ghosts and didn't even look at the monitor for a second. could not remove

“What the hell is this?”

Jaeyoung asked, wondering what to do with the reaction so intense, but the two of them couldn't hear him because they were talking with each other with serious faces.

“Quickly check if there is any measurement error!”

“....the real-time equipment detection system says it's OK.”

“Ha... I'm really going crazy.”

Now, Pil-jun is restlessly stomping his feet and staring at the soaring graph. However, Jaeyoung's graph stopped when it reached the limit.

-Measurement done. The final synchro rate of the subject is 92.89%.

“92.89%.....”

“This crazy.....”

As if it was an unbelievable figure, as if their souls had escaped, the two of them were looking at the final results blankly, and stood still for a long time despite Professor Kim Tae-hoon’s chaos, watching only the monitor. I was just looking.

* * *

“Student Jae Jae Young. Have you ever played Arcadia?”

“Not yet.”

“okay? So, have you played any other games? Things like regular computer games.”

“...I've tried a few of them, so why do you keep asking about that?”

He was the only one who was excited and was constantly looking at Jaeyoung as strange at the questions he was pouring out with rapid fire, but Piljun didn't care at all and handed him a business card.

“This is my business card... Later, if you're not busy, could you stop by my company's lab for a bit? I just want to do some tests.”

“yes? What test?”

“What is that... part-time job! Think of it as a simple part-time job! I'll give you money for just a few tests! huh?”

In front of everyone in the classroom, almost begging him to come to the lab to do a few tests, his momentum seemed desperate enough to kidnap him if he refused. And Professor Kim Tae-hoon, who was watching him, raised his voice.

“What are you doing!”

Startle.

Lion's Roar of an impatient professor. His face flushed as if he was deeply angry at the behavior of those who had ignored his words until now, he growled and spoke to Pil-jun.

“Let me explain, what the hell is this synchro rate number, why are you acting in such a way that you forget your face like this?”

As if his reason had returned to his words, Piljun looked around the classroom with a slightly embarrassed expression. A situation where not a single person is left out and everyone is paying attention to themselves. Feeling a bit embarrassed, he cleared his throat and opened his mouth.

“Kuhmm... I’m sorry. I was so excited about this that I lost my mind for a while. First of all, synchro rate is a basic indicator of how smoothly and efficiently the brain can exchange information with machines.”

a fact known to all. Since it was explained earlier, everyone didn't show much reaction, but everyone's expressions changed in an instant at Piljun's next words.

“I forgot to explain it earlier... Basically, as long as the synchro rate is over 10%, there is no problem enjoying Arcadia. And the average synchro rate of adults measured so far

is...” “14%.”

“....what?”

“Then what is he?”

“Jaeyoung is 92.89%... so how many times the average?”

Everyone in the auditorium couldn't easily believe what he said because there was fresh evidence (?) Jaeyoung sitting right in front of him with an ignorant face and an absurd figure of 92%.

“Twenty-six percent had the best synchro rate we've found so far. At this level... it's no exaggeration to say that he was born for real virtual reality. Hey student, do you really not play Arcadia?”

“Ah, why do you keep doing that?”

Jae-young is starting to get annoyed with Pil-joon who keeps bothering him by calling someone who was sitting still and treating him like a zoo monkey in front of everyone. At just the right timing, Professor Kim Tae-hoon intervened.

“Once you know. Talk about this part later with me separately... Let's start by examining the remaining students.”

“Ah yes. All right. Student Jaeyoung, don’t forget to contact me.”

Pil-joon pretends to be friendly with his eyes wide open. However, Jaeyoung didn't respond and went back to his seat.

“Okay then next... uh! What is the name of the boy with his hand up there?”

“This is Kang Tae-soo.”

“is it so. Student Kang Tae-soo will measure it a second time.”

Tae-soo met Jae-young's eyes as he walked forward. He glared at Jaeyoung fiercely with eyes as if he were looking at a competitor, and then sat down on a chair on the podium.

‘what....?'

It's as if you're not the only one who's great, so don't be conceited. However, Jae-young watched Tae-soo's examination begin without showing anything.

“Okay then, let’s begin.”

The inspection starts again and the graph appears.

Unlike the first test, the graph rises at a remarkably slow speed. Tae-soo turned his head to see his graph go up and asked.

“But is it really this slow? As before...”

The graph stops before he finishes his question. And a message popped up saying that the scan was complete.

-Measurement done. The final synchro rate of the subject is 14.13%.

“Yes 14.13%. It's just average.”

“...is it over already?”

“sure. The results came out in front of you.”

Pil-joon and his assistant reacted as if it were natural. Tae-soo was rather confused by the reaction as if this was normal.

“There is no need to worry because the numbers are just for normal people. At this level, there is no great difficulty in using or operating virtual reality. Is Tae-soo playing Arcadia?”

“yes.”

“There won’t be any major obstacles to playing. If it goes beyond the original 10% sync rate, it's normal, so there's no need to worry too much.”

Pil-joon takes off his equipment while waving his hands. However, Tae-soo distorted his expression, as if he didn't like the test results that showed a ridiculous gap with Jae-young.

“Then what you said earlier is really...”

“Yes? Oh, is that your friend? Sure. Although it is true that very few specimens have been tested because this technology is in its infancy, considering that the highest record so far is 26%...

” .

“I think Jaeyoung, the student, probably has the highest score in the world.”

At Piljun's words, someone raised their hand and asked if they couldn't hold back their curiosity.

“What's good about that synchro rate being high?”

“Hmm... It's still in the research stage, so we can't say anything definitively, but there are big commonalities that people with high synchro rates show as a whole.”

A person who is capable of almost perfect synchronization with a machine that can best accept virtual reality. They show natural talent in virtual space and bring out all functions and abilities to the fullest on a level close to instinct.

“If you take a game as an example, he stands out by showing his ability to overwhelm everyone with tremendous physicality that is close to instinct. Strangely, this is a phenomenon that also occurs in general computer games, even if it is not virtual reality.”

“That means...”

“Yes. To put it simply... If your synchro rate is high, you can say you're good at the game.”

At that, everyone glanced at Jaejoong. Jaeyoung doesn't play Arcadia. Since he was talking about having a natural talent for games, everyone was making strange faces at this irony.

‘...So that's why?'

Jae-Young, who was heartbroken while listening to Pil-Jun's words. He tried not to show it as much as possible, but Piljun accurately pointed out his ability as if he knew all about his secret past.

Monstrous situational judgment and physical genius.

One person invincible.

The hermit in the veil.

League of Legends Unofficial World Ranking #1 Dex.

His skill, which was praised and cheered by everyone, is so ridiculous that it can be said that he is playing with it beyond simply crushing pro gamers. Jae-young, who has been active as a ranker in many games, not just the game League of Legends, and has made a mark in countless incidents with great fame, but has never revealed it publicly to anyone.

‘I hate being bothered...'

He was regretting that he had come out and dragged aggro for no reason, but Pil-joon, not knowing what Jae-young was thinking, went ahead and drove the stake.

“If student Jaeyoung starts Arcadia right now... maybe he doesn’t know...”

Piljun says with a bright smile as if he is looking forward to it just by imagining it. He openly fucked Jaeyoung in front of everyone.

“I wonder if it’s just a matter of time before I can rise to the ranks.”

“.....”

Envy, curiosity, jealousy, anger, inferiority complex. Feeling the eyes full of emotions staring at him, Jaeyoung vowed revenge in his heart. One day I will make you pay for this.

“Now... then who’s next?”

“.....”

“Um... is there any?”

Everyone is hesitant about the test, perhaps because of Tae-soo, who has already been humiliated with an overwhelming gap. When no one raised his hand, he asked again with an embarrassed expression, and soon began to point out one person at a time and examine them. However, the comparison itself with Jaeyoung is so disastrous that it is embarrassing. Because of this, in the end, the test results were changed to a method that was secretly shown only to the parties concerned.

“Now...then I’ve done all the tests. how is it? It was a pretty fun time, right?”

“.....”

A miserable atmosphere where everyone has an expression of chewing shit and doesn’t respond in any way.

“Haha... then I'm done with this.....”

Professor Kim Tae-hun sighed as he glared at the two who left the classroom with an awkward smile, probably noticing the atmosphere.

“Haa.... Today's lecture ends with this.”

Professor Kim Tae-hoon just wanted to let students know what synchro rate is. However, because of the ridiculous monster named Jae-young, his sublime meaning has completely changed.

Students who thought that each one was special and were swollen with dreams and hopes. The professor ended today's lecture by trampling on the green buds by informing them of the harsh reality that there is a wall that can never be crossed.
