4: Chapter 4: First Introduction to the Game 4: Chapter 4: First Introduction to the Game The next morning. “Son! Get up and eat!” Su’s mother continued to wake up early to prepare the hot meal, calling the resting Su Ran. “Coming!” Su Ran cheerfully walked out from his room while putting on his jacket, “Mom, I’ll go to the neighbor, Mr. Li’s house to use his computer to look up some materials after eating. It will just take ten minutes, it won’t delay my school time.” “Hmm, then eat quickly. Mr. Li will go to the morning market later, I’ll go clean up the kitchen.” Su’s mother lovingly touched Su Ran’s forehead, glancing at his tightly wrapped left arm without a word, then turned back to the kitchen. Su Ran watched his mother’s increasingly aging figure and quietly clenched his right fist. After eating, Su Ran arrived at Mr. Li’s house. “Knock knock knock!” “Who is it?” Mr. Li opened the door: “Who else could it be! It’s the Su boy, come in!” “Thank you, Mr. Li, for the inconvenience.” Su Ran said cautiously to Mr. Li. From the impression of Su Ran, Mr. Li was always outspoken, eccentric, and serious. Su Ran had feared Mr. Li since he was a child. After entering the room, Su Ran asked, “Mr. Li, where’s your computer? I need to use it to look up some study materials.” “Oh, Su boy, you’re quite studious. A good seedling indeed! Ahem!” Mr. Li coughed once and pointed with his cane, “It’s in the back room. Go in, I’ll go find some cough medicine. I’m getting old and not as good as before!” “Okay, thank you, Mr. Li. Drink more water and make sure to rest!” “Ahem, go on, go on!” Sёarᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. In the back room, the computer was still on, its screensaver hadn’t even started, and there was still some warmth left on the mouse. Huh? QQ? On the desktop, the QQ interface conspicuously hung on the right side without any disguise. Wow, Mr. Li uses QQ? Can he still see clearly? Alas, it’s hard to think that such an elderly person who lives alone feels so lonely… Su Ran was understanding and continued to look. What’s Mr. Li’s screen name? He’ll ask his classmates to add him when they’re free to chat with Mr. Li. Hopefully, it’ll relieve Mr. Li of his loneliness and let him enjoy his old… What the hell?!! A group of crows flew in front of Su Ran… Mr. Li’s screen name instantly shocked Su Ran’s vision! ‘Creamy Youth’!!!! 576 QQ friends…327 of them are currently online…all females…females… Oh my God~~ Su Ran gently touched his forehead, well, Mr. Li’s life was indeed very colorful…He reconsidered his previous thoughts… Su Ran hastily hid the QQ interface, respect privacy, respect privacy. He opened the browser and typed in ‘God and Demon War’. The official website was very simple. Su Ran briefly glanced over it, skipping the game introduction and focusing on the key points due to the limited time: this game had been running for a year, strictly for players aged 18 and above. The game was a VR game with no specific rules, everything was possible and up to the players to explore. There were five ways to access the game: 1. Special game ring (for mobile gaming) 2. Game helmet (50% VR realism) 3. Seated Nutrition Cabin (70% VR realism) 4. Advanced Nutrition Cabin (90% VR realism) 5. Legendary Health Pool (100% VR realism). 1. Special game ring (for mobile gaming) retail price 5000. 2. Game helmet (50% VR realism) retail price 20,000. 3. Seated Nutrition Cabin (70% VR realism) retail price 50,000. 4. Advanced Nutrition Cabin (90% VR realism) retail price 200,000. 5. Legendary Health Pool (100% VR realism) retail price 100 million. 100 million? Spend 100 million to play a game? What kind of international joke is this! Su Ran’s eyes widened in disbelief. Has the world gone mad or is it just that my horizons are too narrow? Time was pressing. He pulled out a notebook from his backpack, hastily scribbled down some notes on a piece of white paper, stuffed it into his bag, said goodbye to Mr. Li and left for school. Not long after Su Ran left, a very pleasant voice came from the toilet in Mr. Li’s bedroom: “Grandpa, grandpa! Has the guest left? There’s no toilet paper in the bathroom, can you get me some toilet paper~~” … In the classroom. For the first time, Su Ran lacked the motivation to listen to the lecture. He was vigorously doodling at the five options on a piece of white paper. The most circled were the first and second options. The special game ring was cheap but not practical. Yet, Su’s family was just barely able to afford it. Over the years, because of Su Ran’s bizarre illness, the family was nearly destitute. To earn money, Su’s father worked from dawn to dusk, which caused Su Ran to barely see his father even once a month. Su’s mother was a housemaid at a wealthy home and couldn’t earn much in a month. Money!! Sigh! Su Ran stared blankly at the paper in his hand. The words on it seemed to turn into a devil’s face, constantly mocking Su Ran’s incapability and ridiculousness. Lin Yuqing, who was sitting next to him, was curious when she saw her deskmate staring at a piece of paper with a worried face. She stretched her neck to see a lot of scribblings: 5000, 20000, 50000, 200000, 100 million, along with many words about game content. Oh~~ Lin Yuqing paused, then understood Su Ran’s predicament. “Hey!” Lin Yuqing, taking advantage of the teacher’s moment of writing on the blackboard, whispered to Su Ran: “How much money do you need? I can lend you!” Su Ran was stunned for a moment, then he shook his head at Lin Yuqing, implying that he was figuring out a solution. What a fool, still caring about face at this point! Lin Yuqing couldn’t say more in the classroom, so she started to write a note. At this moment, Su Ran’s back was pulled. A note with a pleasant scent was passed over. Su Ran took the note and couldn’t believe his eyes. It was actually written by the goddess Han Siying! He quickly looked at the graceful and powerful fonts on it, which said: “Su Ran, I want to hire you, immediately. Help me find the ‘Dream Mirror’, the fee is one million, 200,000 can be paid in advance. -Han Siying.” The legendary ‘Dream Mirror’? Does Han Siying know about it too?! Su Ran gave a bitter smile. The note he had been doodling caught the attention of even the goddess at the desk behind, what merit did he have that they all came to help me? Immediately, Su Ran wrote a note, the handwriting was strong: “It’s my first time playing the game. I don’t have any talent or ability, I’m sorry I can’t accept.” Very soon, a note came back, along with the sound of Liu Yina’s suppressed laughter from behind. “This doesn’t need talent or ability, what’s needed is luck.” “Even if I get it, I’m going to use it for treatment.” “I want the second piece.” No room for debate, this time even a check came together, 200,000, the price of the Advanced Nutrition Cabin. Something seemed to be lifted from Su Ran’s heart. While he was touched, he also felt a deep sense of responsibility. He squeezed his right fist again and again. After hesitating for a long time, he finally put the check into his pocket. He couldn’t say a word. But he didn’t notice his deskmate Lin Yuqing, had already crumpled the half written note into a ball and threw it into the desk hole. She stared blankly at the blackboard, not knowing what she was thinking about.
