The reason Chen Lun recognized this machine actually traces back to a chance encounter in his previous life.
It was one day while surfing the internet, he unintentionally stumbled upon a post in a gaming forum. The poster claimed to be a high-ranking member of a well-known guild and shared a private photo labeled as a "game server," thanks to their connection to a relative on the official game development team.
Initially, this photo was met with a lot of skepticism.
After all, the poster's identity couldn't be verified, and with the technology level at the time, not to mention photoshopping, even creating such a picture using AI technology out of thin air was possible, making it hard to discern its authenticity.
However, after the poster shared another screenshot of their relative's "identity badge," the doubts gradually subsided.
Those who had been sharply criticizing the poster suddenly went quiet and disappeared.
