Niu Bi was preparing to head to Shanghai Bund World to inspect the trading company when he discovered that the second door was no longer gray!
A pattern of an airship appeared on the lintel.

Chapter 23 Red Alert 2: Mental Omega
Has the second world finally begun?
Niu Bi paused, looking at the airship pattern on the second gate. He then turned to look at the gate of Shanghai Bund, where he saw Chow Yun-fat's portraits of Xu Wenqiang and Ding Li!
"Is the pattern hinting at what kind of world lies beyond this door?" Niu Bi wondered.
"And this airship... it looks familiar, like I've seen it somewhere before!!"
Niu Bi pondered for a moment, then suddenly a thought flashed through his mind. "Red Alert! The second world is actually Red Alert!!"
Red Alert is a real-time strategy game produced by Westwood Studios in 1996, which became a global phenomenon in the 2000s.
Niu Bi has a very vivid memory of this game.
To play this game, Niu Bi once spent two days and one night in an internet cafe.
"Look at the pattern on this door, a statue with its right hand raised, and an airship in the sky. It must be Red Alert 2: Mental Omega!" Niu Bi recalled the bits and pieces of playing Red Alert back then.
In Red Alert, there are two factions: the Soviet Red Army and the Allied forces.
"This world is amazing! It has all sorts of weapons, tanks, flying units... and most importantly, every single map has tons of gold mines!"
At this moment, Niu Bi was filled with anticipation.
Because of the portal, weapons and other items cannot be brought into reality; what he wants most is gold!
He remembered that the only resources in Red Alert were diamond ore, gold ore, and oil. Among them, drilling and diamond ore were very rare, and gold ore was the most common!
Moreover, this ore can be continuously refreshed by the system!
In other words, as long as Niu Bi gets a base vehicle and creates his own base, he can mass-produce mining vehicles, collect gold ore, and make a lot of gold bars. Wouldn't that make him incredibly fast at making money?
"Let's go in and take a look first."
Niu Bi had just taken a step when a thought suddenly struck him. He abandoned his journey to the Red Alert world and returned to reality, where he found Grey Wolf at his aunt's house next door.
He used the same trick again, taking out chicken legs from the refrigerator to lure Grey Wolf into the Red Alert world!
Similarly, put a rope around Grey Wolf's neck.
After more than ten tests, seeing that Grey Wolf was alright, Niu Bi carefully stepped inside, holding a stun gun in his left hand and a Mauser rifle in his right.
Although he knew this was the world of Red Alert, Niu Bi felt that only guns and stun guns could make him feel safe.
As soon as he stepped inside, Niu Bi's eyes swept around.
What comes into view is a hilly area.
The sky was overcast and gray.
Just as Niu Bi was looking around, a rumbling sound suddenly came from several miles to his right.
Niu Bi turned his head and was startled. He quickly hid in a bush.
It was an Allied tank, moving very fast, and disappeared into the distance with a rumble, without noticing Niu Bi, the outsider.
"It really is Red Alert! I wonder how many players and computers are in this map." Niu Bi knew that Red Alert could only accommodate a maximum of eight players and computers, and it was a closed map. He didn't know what kind of map it was yet.
"Looks like it's just the beginning. That tank is just scouting!" Niu Bi had played Red Alert before and knew that at the start of the game, the base vehicle was activated first, and then tanks and American soldiers went out to scout and expand the map's visibility.
At this moment, seizing this Allied base vehicle poses the lowest risk!
With that thought in mind, Niu Bi gripped his pistol and headed along the bushes toward where the tank had come from.
After walking less than three miles, Niu Bi saw an Allied base opened in a valley, on a flat area the size of four or five basketball courts.
"Base vehicle!"
Upon seeing the familiar base vehicle, Niu Bi's eyes lit up instantly.
On the site, there was only a purplish-red power plant and a ore extraction plant.
He knew that from the moment he entered the game, he had a mobile base vehicle, a tank, and an American soldier. At this moment, the tank and the soldier were either out scouting and hadn't returned yet, or they had been destroyed by the enemy.
Now is the perfect time to seize the base vehicle!
Thinking of this, Niu Bi used his tracking skills to sneak up to 100 meters away from the base, gripped his gun tightly, and quietly observed.
I don't know if this base is controlled by players or computers. If it's controlled by players, I won't consider taking it over.
At this moment, the base was quiet, except for the sounds of prospecting vehicles and the power plant.
"It must be computer-controlled!"
Niu Bi, holding a gun and a stun gun, slowly approached, preparing to observe more closely and be on the safe side.
Da da da!
Da da da!
