It was night time, and the sky was drizzling like a cow's hair. However, even the continuous rain did not stop the prosperity of B City. The beautiful neon lights were still flashing. B City's so-called " million lighting project " was indeed not a lie... The so-called " million lighting project " did not mean that they had invested millions in light bulbs. A small million would not bring much to this international metropolis... They were referring to the millions in electricity consumption!!
Perhaps it was a little exaggerated, but the effect it created was gratifying. Under the guidance of the beautiful and dreamy lights, people liked to walk out of their homes more and more. This also accelerated the development of night culture in B City. Bar, KTV, and nightclubs were the most popular industries and places for people to go…However, in a corner of B City, it was dark. Even the street lamps were pitifully few. Every time it was windy or rainy, the street lights would occasionally turn dark…This was the old community that people called the 'Scar of B City' and also the 'slum' in people's eyes.
There was a sharp contrast between the old community and the downtown area. When the downtown area welcomed its most prosperous period of the day, the old community area was in silence. While the people in the downtown area were venting their excess energy, the people in the old community area had already fallen asleep after a hard day's work... This was the difference between the rich and the poor.
At this moment, a thin figure was running under the light rain under the flickering street lights. His body leaned to the left and then to the right. His steps were floating…as if he was drunk. Then, he leaned against a lamp post and panted heavily before continuing to stumble. Under the flickering street lights, outsiders could clearly see that he was holding a square cardboard box in his arms. Finally…he ran out of the range of the street lights. His thin figure disappeared into the dark street…
" Yiya!" A strange groan sounded from the dilapidated wooden door as I walked in. Out of habit, I reached out and lit up a small lamp in the room. I didn't pay attention to the water droplets dripping from the roof, nor did I have the leisure to appreciate the beautiful music of the water droplets dripping into the bottles and jars. With heavy footsteps, I walked past the bottles and jars on the ground to the bedside. After putting away the cardboard box in my arms, I lay on the bed...
The heavens played a joke on me. Half a month ago, after I accidentally fainted, a doctor told me that I was unfortunately infected with the AIDS virus…which means that I have contracted the 'AIDS virus' that makes the world pale. Therefore, I have been carefully protecting myself for the past half a month. I have some understanding of 'AIDS.' It is a virus that destroys the immune system of the human body. You won't die from it like cancer…but it destroys your immune system, and your body won't be able to resist the invasion of other viruses. At that time, even a small cold and fever can kill you!!
After knowing that I had contracted this disease, I was already in despair. I was also prepared to die at any time. In this half a month, I sold everything that I could sell…including my tricycle, which I used to make a living. In addition to my savings over the past few years, I had a total of nearly 20,000 yuan. After remitting 18,000 yuan to my sister, I only left 2,000 yuan for living expenses…After all, I didn't know when I would die. I couldn't let myself starve to death at home, right?
It wasn't that they hadn't thought of committing suicide, but they didn't have the courage to do so…They really didn't understand how they got the courage to write in the newspapers every day about a certain young man jumping off a building and a certain young woman cutting his pulse. Some people tried everything to survive, but it wasn't easy for them to do so. Yet, they wanted to die so casually…It was really unfair!!
However, it seemed that the heavens had no intention of letting me off after I contracted AIDS. Just as I was braving the drizzle and queuing up to hand over my ID card and gold card, and hurriedly filling in a form to receive the gaming helmet worth 100,000 yuan, I was gently informed by the beautiful saleslady," Thank you for your support of this game, Mr. Liu Wuqing…Your helmet and your ID card have been locked. From now on, only you can use this helmet…"
"Ah! What did you say? Lock…locked on! Didn't that mean that the helmet couldn't be resold?”I asked in shock.
The sales lady was stunned at first, then put on her professional smile and said,"I'm sorry, sir, I'm afraid so…"
"But why don't we lock onto others?”
" That's because you have a special account..." The salesgirl explained politely and patiently.
After hearing the sales lady's explanation, I was stunned for a moment before cursing in my heart,""There's no good stuff for cheap things, let alone free ones. Looks like the game company isn't stupid…"
The sales lady saw my outfit and guessed that I needed money. She smiled and said,"Although the helmet can't be resold, the game can still make money ~"
"You can earn money?" I looked at the sales lady in confusion."Isn't it just a game for people to relax and entertain themselves when they're bored? What kind of money can we earn?"
"Sir, don't you know that the gold coins in the game can be exchanged with real money?”The sales lady looked at me as if I was from Mars…and the people around me looked at me the same way.
Finally, an impatient voice came from behind me."Hey, old man in front, can you slow down? Don't be a dog in the manger…"
"If you're done with your 'petty', then get out of here ~ If there's anything you don't understand, go home and check it out online ~"
"..." Hearing so many dissatisfied voices behind me, I was too embarrassed to ask further, so I picked up my helmet and ran home...
The more I ran under the drizzle, the heavier my steps became. My head was spinning. When I got home, I was sure that I had caught a cold or a fever from the rain. The first thing I thought of was the medicine bottle beside my pillow. However, after shaking it for a while, I had to recognize the truth... the medicine was gone!!
"Sigh…Am I going to die just like this? " I can't accept this…" I sighed as I looked at the raindrops on the roof. Then, I turned my head and looked at the gaming helmet beside me. I made a decision…Even if I die, I want to play this game of the rich!!
I hurriedly opened the box and a cool 'motorcycle helmet' appeared in front of me. Indeed…from the outside, this black and round thing only gave me the feeling of a 'motorcycle helmet'. Other than the extra phone and power cord, there really wasn't much difference…
"I heard that six days in the game is equivalent to one day in reality. I don't know if that's true. If it's true, won't I be able to live a few more days? " Hehe..." A smile appeared on my face as I connected the phone and power. At the same time, I realized that my body temperature was getting higher and higher, and my consciousness was getting blurry.
I glanced at the alarm clock on the pillow and knew that it was already 12 o'clock. Why did I have to wait until 12 o'clock? Because I learned from the advertisement that the game would open at midnight on October 1st National Day, I had to wait until 12 o'clock to enter. It was said that the top 10 people who entered the game would receive a reward from the system, but the advertisement flyer also stated that those who entered the game early would be disqualified from entering the game on that day by the system…They could only wait until midnight…
After knowing that it was already 12 o'clock, I put on the helmet. After a burst of colorful flashes, I completely lost consciousness... but I didn't realize that my alarm clock had already stopped. I didn't know which day the 12 o'clock was pointing to. The moment I put on the helmet, it was only 11:55!! More importantly, I didn't notice that my hair was obviously wet, and it wasn't just wet... As a result, the water droplets on the tip of my hair flowed into the circuit board and caused a short circuit. Unfortunately, this 68,000 yuan helmet didn't have a waterproof design.(Note: I hereby clarify that I absolutely have no intention of slandering domestic products. It's just that some domestic products really make people want to sing ~~~ I want to say that it's not easy to love you. It takes too much courage!)!)，The light purple electric current pierced my brain, then spread from my brain all the way to my entire body. Immediately, my entire body began to spasm, and my muscles kept twitching…At the same time, because the output of the electric current was too large, the small lights in the room began to flicker. Not only that…even the entire street had this phenomenon of unstable voltage. A few Raggedy Kings who hadn't slept in the middle of the night were playing cards together. The sudden appearance of such a situation made him shout,""Damn it, it's not like I didn't pay the electricity bill. Why does this damn power supply bureau keep making our voltage unstable?”
" That's right…If I didn't have a household register, I would have sued them long ago…"
“……”
“……”
At the same time, in the headquarters of the Tianhua Group somewhere in China, a group of researchers in white suits were excitedly 'tapping' on the keyboard. Rows of incomprehensible data were jumping up and down on the huge cylindrical display. The cylindrical display was more than ten meters tall and took up two floors of space. The diameter of the cylinder was nearly eight meters…Behind this display was the most powerful and fastest mainframe computer in the world that the Tianhua Group had spent five years and countless human and financial resources to create-Tianhua No.1!!
The Sky Glory One's functions were so advanced that it could support 20 billion computers running at high speed at the same time…In other words, it could support tens of billions of people around the world playing games inside it, and there would be no network traffic jam. Not only that…the virtual reality technology stored within it was more than 50 years ahead of the current technology. It was also because of this that the Ministry of National Defense had sealed it as a national secret to prevent its technology from being leaked out of the country. They even sent a company of special forces soldiers to protect it. At the same time, they donated a 100-meter-deep underground base for them to place the 'Sky Hua 1'. Even the most advanced spy satellites could not find it. It could be said to be extremely confidential…
"Chairman, is it really okay for us to do this?”Zhang Bo, the 45-year-old general manager of Tianhua Group, couldn't help but turn around and ask worriedly after taking a look at the 'Tianhua No.1' outside the glass wall.
"What's not good about it? Wasn't this already part of the plan?”The 38-year-old chairman of the Tianhua Group, Qiu Ran, said indifferently.
" But I always feel guilty about starting the game five minutes early..." Zhang Bo smiled bitterly.
"Guilt? Come on, we're just trying to protect ourselves. Don't forget that we've already made the big deal clear. When the game started, we 'invited' all the hackers in the world to attack us…The world's strongest firewall, the world's strongest hacker trap, and so on. These are all challenges to all the hackers in the world. If we don't make some preparations, how can we guarantee our safety?”Qiu Ran said with a fake smile.
" But if someone barges in at this time…it doesn't seem fair to the players who follow the rules of the game…"
"What is fairness? What was unfair? " The world is unfair to begin with…If he had the guts to enter the game five minutes ago, then this top ten spot would be his reward…" Zhang Bo was speechless when he heard Qiu Ran's words. He was just very curious how this boss, who was a few years younger than him, was so much bolder than him.
"By the way, have there been any reactions from the other countries in the past few days?”Qiu Ran asked when he saw that Zhang Bo was no longer speaking.
"The other countries are fine. They've already gotten over it. Isn't it just a month late? So what? "No matter what, it was developed by our own people and we should let our own people play first ~~~ But the Japanese and Americans were not convinced and said that they wanted to release it at the same time. They even said that we had a 'national plot',' hatred of Japan', and 'anti-American and anti-American' mentality…" Zhang Bo said disdainfully.
"What does Yang Tongshu do?" Qiu Ran frowned and asked unhappily. Didn't he explain that our language translation system wasn't ready yet? How did such a big thing happen?"
"Old Yang has already said it, but those guys don't believe it. They said that we're just looking for an excuse. At the same time, they also threatened to refuse to play if we don't release it at the same time. Many of their famous newspapers even said that ours is the biggest scam at the beginning of this century. "The incident with Laden is still fake…but they were still shocked by Old Yang's words…" Zhang Bo said with a smug look on his face. However, he didn't realize that he looked like a child at this moment.
"Oh, what did he say?”
"He held a press conference and said,'The plan to delay the release of the game for a month will not change. In addition, to those who refuse to play, I can only say that playing is your freedom. It's your right not to play! Aiyaya ~ Old Yang's words were really satisfying!! "If it were me, I would delay him for a year and a half so that our players can go to his country and kill those bastards after they reach level 80. Hahaha!" Zhang Bo laughed like a child.
"General Manager Zhang!"
"Ah!" Zhang Bo was awakened by Qiu Ran's voice and looked embarrassed.
" General Manager Zhang, I hope you can understand that we are businessmen, not soldiers…As businessmen, we should value profit more than those worthless 'national sentiments.' I don't want to hear these words from you in the future…"
"Yes…Chairman, I will keep it in mind.”Zhang Bo replied with an enlightened expression. But in his heart, he was secretly thinking, The chairman's face clearly looks like he just had sex…That's awesome!! " But he can still say such a great thing. His realm is really not ordinary…" The two of them did not speak anymore. They only looked at the Sky Flower No. 1 on the other side of the glass wall with anticipation and a little nervousness…
However, I didn't know that I was lucky enough to make it in time for the five minutes of preparation time and became the first person to enter the game world. After being hypnotized by the hypnotizing light, I fell into a deep sleep and naturally didn't know what was happening in reality. In addition, the short circuit just now damaged the detector in the helmet that detected human health, so even if there was a problem with my body, it wouldn't be able to wake me up... Suddenly, a white light filled my vision. I looked left and right and found myself in a smoke-filled hall. There was a six-meter-tall woman with a human body and a snake tail in front of me. She was very beautiful and was looking at me with a gentle gaze, making my heart feel warm…Thus, a strange feeling rose in my heart."Is this heaven?"
" Welcome, child…Welcome to this eternal world…You will enjoy a different life here…" At this moment, the woman's gentle voice sounded in my ear.
" You…you are…" I asked nervously.
"The system named me Nuwa. Creating you is my responsibility, and giving you the life you want is my mission!!”Nuwa replied gently.
"System? Is this the inside?" Although I didn't have a mirror, I was absolutely certain that my mouth was agape with a shocked expression.
"Yes, I am! This is the game space, welcome to enter…Please choose your name!!”Nuwa said. Although I didn't feel that her voice was any different from before, I felt that her voice had become much stiffer…
" It's indeed as real as the advertisement said, but artificial intelligence isn't as exaggerated as in the movies. Fakes are still fakes.”I thought to myself. At this moment, Nüwa's voice rang out again.!”
" Liu Wuqing..." I answered casually when someone asked for my name.
"Is it confirmed that the player will be named Liu Wuqing?”Nüwa immediately replied,"I'm a little silly. I didn't expect her to take my casual answer seriously!"! It seemed that he had to think clearly before speaking in the future…Seeing that it was not a big deal for him to use his real name, he said,"I'm sure (typical QQ rookie habit!!)!!”
" Choose your appearance in the game…" Then, seven pictures appeared in front of me…the real me in the middle, the one on the left with 10% enhancement, and the one on the right with 10% ugliness.
In the end, I chose the 30% uglier version of myself. This choice came from my thieving mentality…'Even if I'm uglier, I'm not afraid of being recognized even if I do something bad!'! Moreover, after 30% of his body was ugly, he was extremely ordinary. If he was thrown into a pile of people, he would probably not be able to find him…
"Please choose your basic attribute point…You have two ways to choose your attribute. " 1 is a random choice;2 is a regular choice…" Then, seven names appeared in front of me. Among them, there was a '*' behind Charm, Luck, and Comprehension. Although I had never played a game before, I knew that the '*' meant 'cannot be found'…
"Is there any difference between random and conventional choices?”Because I didn't prepare as much as others, I could only ask.
"Random means that you have the right to randomly choose your basic attributes. The total attributes are between 35 - 40, but you only have three chances to choose…the other three hidden attribute points will not change. " Normally, the total number of attribute points is 40, but it will be evenly distributed among your attribute items and cannot be changed…" Nüwa explained very clearly and I understood. In other words, if you want to be a special character, you can choose 'Random', but it will also require you to take the risk of losing 5 attribute points. Of course, if you want to be safe, you can choose' Random'. You could have chosen Normal and you would have gotten a very average stat…But I think a large portion of people would take the risk and choose Random, because Average is Normal, and Normal is Trash…No matter what era it was, people with specialties would always enjoy eating Normal, but knowing this, I still didn't dare to choose. The reason was that my luck was too bad…
"Choose the conventional…"
"Character creation, please choose your profession…because your game number is **, congratulations on choosing a hidden profession…congratulations, because you are the first ten players to enter this game, the system will reward you with 10 free attribute points…Hidden attributes cannot be enhanced!" Suddenly, a pleasant music sounded in my ears. Then, a ' ' and a '-' sign appeared behind my four attributes…
"It can't be, right? Could it be that my luck has already 'rebounded' from the brink of death?”I felt a little incredulous that I was the first to enter the game and received a prize…
" At the same time, cause, cause, cause…" For some reason, Nüwa kept saying the same word and doing the same action…Although I had never played online games, I had more or less heard of it. This phenomenon made my brain think-stuck?!
"Forget it…she's stuck, I'll add mine…eh?!”Just as I was about to add those attribute points, I unexpectedly discovered that the three hidden attributes could actually be seen…
Charm: 5
[Luck: 5]
Comprehension: 8
"Looks like my luck is still so bad ~~~~" I looked at my 5 points of luck and laughed bitterly in my heart. Then, I wondered if I could change it, but I realized that my luck had already become 6 points…However, I still had 9 free attribute points, but I was still very satisfied. Then, I realized that it was even more amazing. Other than the total number of attribute points that could not be changed, all the attribute points could be freely allocated by me…
"What is intelligence? Smart? "I admit that I'm pretty smart but useless…" Thus, my Intelligence dropped to 0 and I gained 10 free attribute points…
"Agility? My hands and feet are quite nimble…It's useless!!”Thus, my Dexterity also dropped to 0, and I gained another 10 free attribute points…
"Charm? What was it? I don't understand…"
"The source of all strength… 20! Luck was the driving force behind everything!”Hence, my stats became like this…
[Constitution: 10]
[Strength: 30]
[Agility: 0]
[Intelligence: 0]
Charm: 0
[Luck: 10]
Comprehension: 8
Just as I was excitedly fiddling with my attribute points in the game, the outside world was in a mess. In the secret computer room 100 meters underground of Tianhua Group, the general manager Zhang Bo said to the chairman Qiu Ran," Chairman, the hackers are starting to attack…"
"Good timing…Activate the counterattack system!! "Find out the exact location of those people and inform them of the country and the police station. The statistics…" Qiu Ran said with a malicious smile on his face.
" Okay..." Zhang Bo happily picked up the phone and instructed the staff below... After a while, a staff member wearing a white pendant held a piece of white paper in his hand and said,""Chairman, the data is out…"
" Read it quickly…" Zhang Bo said excitedly.
" Yes... There are more than 400,000 hackers who attacked us this time. They are distributed all over the world... Among them, there are 70,000 in the United States and more than 50,000 in Japan..." The staff read out.
"Hmph ~~~ Looks like those trash still don't give up ~~~~" Qiu Ran sneered. At this moment, Qiu Ran finally showed the face of 'hatred for Japan'!!
" But... that... chairman..." The staff member was a little hesitant.
"What is it? "Tell me ~ Don't hesitate…" Qiu Ran said.
" Chairman, we found out that there are even more of them in China…There are nearly 150,000…"
"What? 150,000!" Zhang Bo couldn't believe his ears."Do we have any grudges against the players of China? Or was it the old habit of the people of China? Are they fighting against each other again?”
However, what they found strange was that their boss was not angry, but instead, he laughed happily." Haha! They can't even compare to us even if they add up…We still have more 'talents' in China!"
Zhang Bo was sweating profusely, and he couldn't help but feel sorry for all the hackers in the world.""When it comes to foreign countries, they are 'trash', but in China, they become' talents'…Why is there such a big difference in the treatment of hackers?”
Du du du…At this moment, the phone rang. Qiu Ran took the phone and said,"Hey…what? A hacker had broken into the game! Investigate…Immediately investigate…Find out who it is at all costs. I want to see who could break into my firewall!!”Qiu Ran was practically shouting at the end of his sentence, and his roar shocked Zhang Bo and the staff member. However, they could understand it. After all, the technology in Tianhua No. 1 was many years ahead of modern technology. How could someone crack it? In their minds, there was only one word that could describe it on the internet-pervert!!
"Then…Chairman, what about the Chinese hackers here? Should I report it too?" The staff member asked nervously.
"Of course. We can't be biased, can we?! This is to shut up those foreigners and let them know that we have as many talents as they do…"
" Yes…" After hearing Qiu Ran's explanation, the staff member left excitedly…
Du du du…The phone rang again. This time, Qiu Ran didn't pick up the phone again. Instead, she pressed the speaker button and asked,"What's the matter?"”
" Chairman, that person has been found…"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Ran's face immediately showed an excited expression and said,"It's true! Quick…Give me his precise location…"
Then, he pressed a button on the phone. The glass wall immediately turned into a huge screen. On the screen was a map. There was a red dot flashing on the map…!”Zhang Bo and Qiu Ran simultaneously called out the name of the place where the red dot was located.
" Chairman, look at CCTV-1…That person has been caught by the Ministry of Public Security and is currently broadcasting live…" At this moment, the voice on the phone rang again.
Qiu Ran immediately pressed a button, and the logo of Central Channel 1 immediately appeared on the screen. The camera shook for a while, and it was obvious that the person holding the camera was running…Then, in a small wooden house, a few tough policemen dragged out a bearded man who was nearly 30 years old. The beautiful female host was explaining that this was an operation to arrest hackers, but Qiu Ran didn't listen to her. His attention was completely focused on the bearded man. Although the man was hugged by several people, he still shouted crazily,"I broke into the White House, I stepped on the London stock market, I kicked the Japanese stock exchange, I snuck into the nuclear missile arsenal of the United Nations…But no one could stop me, but today I fell at my own doorstep, but I'm happy…My country is better than that little beauty, that bastard, haha ~~~"
