Chapter 23 Game "Magic", Renting a Shop



There was a loud bang, the sound of something hitting the ground heavily.

The servants of the Chi family rushed over and saw their young master with red eyes and a ferocious face.

The young master, who was always gentle, polite, noble and elegant, now looked like a trapped beast that was forced into a desperate situation. He was not only ferocious but also ugly.

The servant was shocked.

Chi Ying said viciously: "Get out!"

The servant didn't dare to say a word and hurriedly left.

This time when the young master came back from school, he seemed like a different person. He was impulsive, irritable, violent, and neurotic. He would not allow others to walk behind him, and would subconsciously grab his belt when passing by people.

Servants: “?”

What? Is he on guard against them pulling his pants?

baffling!

After being scolded by Chi Ying several times without any clear reason, the servants couldn't help but mutter immorally in private, wondering if this young master had encountered some unspeakable experience in school, which caused his temperament to change drastically and become suspicious?

After the servant left, Chi Ying took two deep breaths, grabbed another decorative vase in the room, and was about to continue smashing it, but was worried about attracting other people in the house, so he gave up in the end.

But when he thought of Lin Fuxia's mocking and malicious "^_^" and her threats, his heart felt like it was on fire.

Lin Fuxia was supposed to be a dog he'd trained. Because of that face, he'd condescended to let her be his girlfriend, and she should have been incredibly grateful, bursting with gratitude. But she'd actually dared to treat him like that! And now, she even dared to threaten him!

Thinking of the topic #Catch the exhibitionist pervert# which is still hot on the campus forum, and thinking of the scolding and disappointed and disgusted look in his father's eyes when he was called back home, it was as if he really was a pervert who brought disgrace to the family.

If his grandfather hadn't liked and valued him, his father would probably have said something even more unpleasant.

Chi Ying felt a suffocation in his chest and pinched his thigh hard, wishing that all this had never happened.

"Lin Fuxia! Lin Fuxia! You are really great!"

If he had known this day would come, he should have broken her hands and feet and imprisoned her the day he met her. After all, he only liked her face, so he should have locked her up and watched her by himself!

Lin Fuxia was unaware of Chi Ying's immense rage. Anyway, she was quite satisfied with the wealth brought to her by the people she sent.

With tens of thousands of credit coins deposited into his account, Lin Fuxia was in a good mood. He closely followed the developments of "New World" and the exchange rate of game coins throughout the day.

The online war of words is getting more and more intense. To be more precise, it is a one-sided attack on "New World" and the Walt Disney Company behind it.

Countless players returned their game cabinets and gaming helmets, and also printed out their Internet cafe payment receipts and ran to the refund channel provided by Wall Company to apply for refunds.

Then the refund was successful.

Because all refunds were successful, Wall Company's reputation was guaranteed and it did not look like it was trying to cheat people out of their money. As a result, many angry players no longer asked for refunds regardless of the consequences.

They began to discuss rationally why Wall Company did this and what secrets were behind "New World".

A newly established, secretive niche forum with only a few hundred members, all of whom are players of "New World".

To be precise, players above level 10.

Everyone is anonymous.

Anonymous A: I just tested my arm strength. It used to fluctuate around 1000 Newtons, but the data just measured was 1100 Newtons. And I haven't even exercised much these days.

Anonymous B: I'm preparing for a marathon in two months. I went to training today, and my coach said I've improved in all areas of my physical condition. He asked if I'd been secretly working out. I didn't dare tell him, because I'd been playing games all night.

Anonymous C: I almost had a car accident yesterday. At the critical moment, I pulled the front of the car back. In the past, I would never have been able to avoid that situation.

Anonymous Ding: I am a professional pearl diver. I have to go down to very deep sea and I have a serious occupational disease. Yesterday was supposed to be my last day of work. I plan to switch to making money from gaming in the future. But yesterday's work felt easier than ever before. My physical condition felt like I've returned to my twenties.

The prerequisite for entering this anonymous forum is to fill out a simple questionnaire and state which aspects of your body have changed since playing "New World".

Some people were introduced by friends and relatives. At first, they didn't take it seriously when filling out the questionnaire, but after entering the forum and communicating more with each other, they gradually discovered one thing, that is, their bodies became stronger for no reason.

Those who neglected exercise became stronger, those who were weak and sick became healthy, and those who had no special training became extremely agile, as if possessed by a field soldier...

The only thing they have in common is that they have played "New World".

After discovering this shocking secret, it seems understandable that Wal-Mart is so tough.

It is precisely because of the magical ability of "New World" that allows players to become stronger in reality that the punishment of "being unable to register again for life" has a real punitive meaning.

Looking at those people who died several times in the game for no reason, it seems that they are the ones who cursed "New World" the most harshly online.

"These people will regret it." Those who know the truth all think so in their hearts. When they look at those who successfully returned and refunded products, and then post screenshots on the forum, feel complacent, and even instruct others on how to return and refund products, they feel more like they are looking at a group of stupid and noisy frogs.

These people don't know what they are losing for such a small amount of money.

Yang Song is 27 years old this year. Being so young, he should have had a sunny and beautiful life, but he was diagnosed with a family genetic disease last year and the disease has already begun. He has witnessed how the elders in his family died painfully since he was a child, and he knew that his life was over.

He quit his job and broke up with his girlfriend because he didn't want to waste her time. He took his savings and just wanted to live a comfortable and free life in the days to come.

On the first day of its launch, "New World" was criticized for its weird gameplay, but he found it very interesting. He has played various holographic games on the market. Even though the backgrounds are different, the gameplay logic is similar.

The uncontrollable gameplay of "New World" is more attractive to him and allows him to have a more diverse experience.

So, while others complained, he enjoyed it and quickly upgraded. When he entered the weird new player copy, he also completed the tasks very seriously.

Because he was in a good mood playing games, he felt his body was much more relaxed, and he didn't think about anything else until today when his friend mysteriously pulled him into a forum.

Half an hour later, after browsing the forum, he suddenly realized something incredible. It turned out that his body became relaxed not only because he was relaxed, but also because this game had some kind of "magic"?

His first reaction was to go to the hospital for a check-up.

After a thorough examination, his attending physician, an elder who knew about his family's genetic disease, said to him with relief, "Your condition has improved recently. It seems that resigning is the right decision. Stay cheerful and reduce your medication dosage by one-third for now..."

Yang Song was in a daze. He took the new doctor's instructions and left. As he walked, his steps became faster and faster, and he became more and more excited. Finally, he started running.

If New World really had some kind of magical power, could my illness be cured? And what about my parents, uncles, siblings, and even nephews and nieces...

Are they all saved?

He wants to let everyone in the family play "New World" immediately!

Turning on his computer, he first looked at the various expressions of disdain expressed by people online towards New World. Some people even wanted to sell their game coins before quitting the game, and posted "sell at a low price" on the forum.

Compared with these people, Yang Song felt that he had mastered the code to wealth, even the code to longevity. This was a huge secret and an opportunity to change his destiny.

He was so excited that his heart was trembling.

Dial the number: "Hello, Dad, are you home? Listen to me, there is something very important right now, you must trust me..."

At the same time, there were many people who had similar ideas and practices as Yang Song. These people were excited and ecstatic.

They immediately notified their closest friends and family, asking those who hadn't played the game to go play it quickly, those who had played to have fun, and those who were participating in online verbal battles to stop.

At the same time, they will never tell this secret to irrelevant people around them, and even hope that those people on the Internet will make a bigger fuss.

For a piece of delicious meat, the more people give up, the bigger the portion they can eat.

There are also many people, like Lin Fuxia, who stare at the exchange rate of game coins, just like staring at a stock, wanting to buy it at the lowest point. They believe that in the near future, this stock will take off.

In the evening, Lin Fuxia was about to go to the internet cafe again. His roommate couldn't help but ask, "Fuxia, you're going to play games again? Didn't you say there was something wrong with New World?"

Lin Fuxia said: "No, I think it's quite fun."

Looking at his three roommates, he thought about how they had gotten along quite well these days. When his original self was here, his roommates had also been quite nice to him. So, he said, "Don't trust what you read online. Whether a game is good or not, you can only say for yourself after you've experienced it yourself. Anyway, I think New World is pretty fun. Do you want to try it?"

The three roommates were skeptical: "Really?"

"Really?"

In the end, the three of them refused. The eldest one really liked playing holographic games, but she was nostalgic and was still playing an old farming game. She bought a helmet and could play it in the dormitory. She didn't spend much time online every day, just for fun.

The second child doesn't have much interest in games. She spends most of her spare time on dating and is going on a date with her boyfriend in the evening.

The third child is a little allergic to holographic games. He feels dizzy when he enters them. Although this problem can be overcome, the purpose of playing games is to have fun. What's the point of playing games while feeling dizzy?

Seeing that he couldn't persuade them, Lin Fuxia didn't force them. If they entered the game now and didn't take it seriously, it would be bad if they died several times easily.

It won’t be too late for them to enter the game again after everyone knows the importance of "New World" and the importance of the number of deaths.

However, she still reminded: "You can choose not to play the game, but don't speak ill of it casually, no matter which platform you use."

The three of them didn't quite understand why she said that, but even if she didn't tell them specifically, they wouldn't do that. After all, their roommate loved the game "New World" so much, so how could they say anything bad about the game?

When she returned to Andif City again, Lin Fuxia clearly felt that the attitude of the city gate guards towards her was different.

"Dear guest, welcome to Andif City." The guard looked at Lin Fuxia with great respect, as if she really had some extraordinary identity.

Lin Fuxia was not sure whether this change in attitude was caused by his identity as a "believer of the ancestral god" or the newly acquired 10 points of prestige in all fields.

She nodded slightly and returned to the city. She found that the attitude of ordinary NPCs on the street towards her had not changed much. However, some official personnel were surprised when they saw her, and then they were very respectful.

Lin Fuxia was thinking about this change when he suddenly received a prompt

[System prompt] The village chief of Baishan Village has sent you a letter through the official postman. Please go to the post office to pick it up.

Lin Fuxia was stunned. Feilai Henghuo had also sent her a letter, which was directly sent to her personal mailbox. She didn't expect that Village Chief Bai would send her a letter and she would have to go to the post office to pick it up.

She went to the post office immediately. There were many people queuing up to pick up their letters. The staff there were a bit arrogant and perfunctory, and they were slow in finding the letters.

But as soon as Lin Fuxia passed by, the person at the counter glanced at her, as if he had discovered something. He immediately straightened his back, quickly found the letter for her, and handed it to her with both hands: "Your letter."

Lin Fuxia: “…” This attitude has changed too much.

She opened the letter, and in her mind, Village Chief Bai told her that the first batch of blood-restoring medicine had been prepared. They had tried it and the effect was good. He asked her whether to send it to her in the city, or go back to the village to get it, or bring it to her personally when sending the scavenger next time.

Lin Fuxia was excited. It was done so quickly!

She thought about it and decided that if she wanted to send it, it would be safest to do so through the postman, but it would require paying a certain fee.

Other ways require you to bring your own medicine. From Baishan Village to the city, you need to pass the edge of the Warcraft Forest. It is not safe to carry so many medicines.

Besides, it takes several hours to go back and forth, so it would be a waste of time to go back by myself.

In addition, in the letter, the village chief also mentioned that the initial funds had been spent and there was no money left to purchase medicinal materials from the players.

Lin Fuxia sighed and took a look at the game coin exchange rate. Now 1 game coin can be exchanged for 0.9 credit coins.

She thought about it, went to the exchange platform, and transferred 10,000 credit coins from her account. In less than half a minute, she bought 11,111 game copper coins. After deducting a part of the handling fee, she planned to transfer the rest to Village Chief Bai to temporarily support her.

She asked the staff and was told that she could transfer money directly at the post office, and the postman would deliver the money directly to the recipient, so there was no need to worry about losing the money.

So she filled out the remittance form and wrote a letter to Village Chief Bai, asking her to just mail the medicine over.

After leaving the post office, she went to the nearby Executive Hall and expressed her desire to rent a shop.

Yesterday she learned that if she wanted to rent a courtyard house here, she could find a personal agent or go directly to the Executive Hall and use official channels. However, the latter required a lot of things to be reviewed and the price would be slightly higher.

She wanted to try and see if the change in the official attitude towards her would allow her to get some bargains and benefits in matters like renting a house.

The result was as she expected. After seeing her, the somewhat lazy staff quickly checked the shops for rent in the city and found several shops suitable for Lin Fuxia. The rent they offered was slightly lower than the price given by the agent she found yesterday.
