Chapter 36: The Adonis Look
A few minutes later, a barber came up to Lu Chen. she greets him, "Hello, what type of haircut do you want to have?"
Lu Chen couldn't decide which one would fit him. So the best thing he could do is asks the barber, "Could you cut one that would suit me? I can't decide." A professional would have a better idea of what would suit him than himself.
'Alright. I know a haircut would suit you, young man. It's the fad these days." The barber said as she begins to cut Lu Chen's hair.
Lu Chen decides to close his eyes as he wants to see the finished product at the end rather than watch the entire process. The rhythmic sound of his hair being cut made Lu Chen's mind relax. His mind had been stressed out from today; Traveling back to the past, the barbeque incident, and last Liu Fei Fei. Being pressed with all of these events was too much for him.
I should just relax for now. I'll deal with everything later.
While Lu Chen was relaxing, he doesn't realize the barber was looking at him intensely. She had pulled up Lu Chen's hair to see what she had to work with. But when she did, one thought went through her mind. This man's face... I have to make him perfect. The barber starts to snip his hair with the utmost precision possible. While he was doing that, the customers and other barbers became quieter. Even Elder Wu, who's talking to the female clerk, starts to stare at Lu Chen in bewilderment. All of them were, to be honest. This wasn't even the end product! All of them wonder what Lu Chen would look like once the barber was done.

Once the barber finishes cutting Lu Chen's hair, she uses a towel to brush off the hair on his neck and shoulder. Then she begins to wash it. Each strand of his hair was tended to with the utmost care. It was like they were having their own spa day.
Ah, this is so blissful~. Lu Chen starts to smile as he felt that the stress in his body was washing out of his hair.
The washing took about ten minutes. After that ended, the barber begins to blow dry his hair and style his hair with gel. Once she was done, she had to double-check one more time to see if everything was fine.
Wow, his face looks just like a marble sculpture! The barber couldn't help but exclaim in her mind. She continues to stare at Lu Chen's face, entranced by it.
"Umm, are you done?" Noticing that the barber hasn't done anything to him, Lu Chen asks.
“Yes.. yes, you’re done. You can open your eyes now.” the barber stutters from looking at Lu Chen’s face for too long.
Did she mess up my hair? From how the barber was stuttering, Lu Chen is skeptical if she did it correctly. When he opens his eyes to look at his reflection, his expression was calm. But in his heart, it's the complete opposite.
His hair was now parted in a 4/6 style, revealing his entire face. His eyes and brows are like a lone wolf hunting down his prey. Pitch black pupils that were darker than the night. Contrasting this darkness was the snow-white skin and thin red lips.
The only words that could describe him were an aloof prince.
Holy crap! Is this me? Lu Chen was in disbelief the person in the mirror was him. Years of hard work and suffering had made him unfocused on his looks. But seeing how handsome he looked, Lu Chen knew he could use them to his advantage.

“Oh my god, he looks like a Kpop idol,”
“Did you see his gaze? So sexy.”
“I wonder if he has a girlfriend?”
“I want a night with him~.”
Lu Chen could hear the customers and workers whispering about him, and he couldn’t help but smile at their comments. Well, the last remark made him twitch. He walks to the clerk, “ How much for everything?”
The clerk didn't answer him. Lu Chen sudden action made her turn into a stone statue. Seeing that she wasn't responding, he asks again,
“Hello?”
“Ahh, the price is 425 yuan.” The clerk blushes from embarrassment.

A Virtual Invasion
An invasion from another dimension is shut down by an Empire's traitor and the world has a scant few decades to build the strength to resist a multidimensional Empire. How will the world fair when no one even knows its doom is one barred gate away? Fortunately, the traitor has a plan. Maybe with a bit of luck and planning, he can build a force to defend the world without anyone realizing it. Author's Thoughts: What is litRPG (From wikipedia) - LitRPG, short for Literary Role Playing Game, is a literary genre combining the conventions of MMORPGs with science-fiction fantasy novels.[1] LitRPG is a literary genre where games or game-like challenges form an essential part of the story. A LitRPG work simultaneously narrates the story of characters inside and outside of the game-world. At least some of the characters in a LitRPG novel therefore understand that they are playing a game: they are 'meta-aware'. So, while Tolkien's Lord of the Rings is a fantasy novel, a book about people creating avatars and interacting in a Lord of the Rings MMORPG would be a LitRPG novel.Why do I read them? You know, I am not too sure. I love MMOs. I played them, quit them, joined up and repeated the cycle. They are fun! They are a massive waste of time but so are most games. Do I want to read about someone else playing them? Sort of?The advent of VR and the possibility of VR someday becoming so immersive that you can't tell them from reality sets the imagination on fire. What if this could be life? But most stories fall short. At the end of the day the protagonist hangs up his VR helmet and goes to have dinner with his mom and dad or other family and it becomes meaningless. It's like the story that ends because the main character woke up and nothing you read matters.There have been some books that explore the concept of the intersection of reality and total immersion VR. Enders Game is a classic. There were a few others that escape me but they exist, however, the cross between the game and reality is weak.So what if the game was real? The technology needed for total immersion VR is so advanced that by the time we reach that goal technology should have naturally evolved to include several items. You must have direct neural input. You simply can't have a total immersion (all senses and perfect presence) experience without this basic prerequisite. If you have direct neural access, you can probably do neat things like feed knowledge and skills directly to that person. You can undoubtedly do many horrible things as well. Muscles are controlled by the brain. If you control the brain why would you let the body just sit there and rot? A person that sits unmoving for 24 hours a day will have their body whither away just like a coma patient. However, if you control the brain you could control the muscles. On a basic level, this would be isometric impulses, working muscle group against muscle group to avoid atrophy. Taken to its logical conclusion you would be able to gain muscle mass and program muscle memory. The flip side is that you could remote control their body... but let's not go there. So what would people do if it were real? Well, they would probably limit and regulate it since the drawbacks are very obvious. Even if you look at the basic aspects of this you can see some negative possibilities. Look at the Sword Art Online anime. Personally, I think they missed the boat by putting a bomb in the VR helmet. Do you really need a bomb when you have direct access to the brain?So what kind of events would you need to have a situation where the obvious drawbacks haven't been explored? Maybe a society where the advancement of technology has so far outstripped the explorations of its applications that ignorance was truly bliss? Okay, so I had to put in an alien invasion to kickstart the premise, but that was just one of the possibilities.
