However, the mission comes with immense risk, as the boundaries between the game and reality begin to blur, leading to potentially devastating consequences.

As Michael embarks on this high-stakes journey, he discovers that the VirtNet is not just a playground for gamers; it is a realm where the impossible can become possible, and where the consequences of one's choices can be dire.
