Kapitel 742: 742 Bird Brain

The damage was nothing major, just a bit of bruising and a bloody nose. The amount of blood was just because the kid had been in VR and hadn't been able to wipe it away. 

They were playing on extreme mode with the safety protocols hacked so that the player would take some of the damage that the avatar took, in the form of intensified gravity waves to the body, instead of the more gentle ones that usually let you know that you were hit in a high-end VR simulation.

The player was suspended in the pod, and their body moved with the avatar, the same as training to pilot a Mecha.
