Virtual reality has arrived in the world.
Inside a rented room.
A man with a ferocious expression and his eyes tightly closed looked as if he were having a nightmare.
No! Don't!
Lu Ming woke up with a start, looking around at his familiar surroundings in a daze, panting heavily.
"Not dead?"
Lu Ming touched his chest in disbelief.
He was just pierced through the body by a single blow from a demon general.
"No! That's definitely not a dream, this is rebirth?"
Lu Ming, having recovered from his shock, was overjoyed.
I quickly opened my phone and checked the date.
May 31, 2523.
"Just as I thought, it seems I really have been reborn. Tomorrow is the open beta launch of the 'Gods' virtual online game, I need to get ready quickly!"
Lu Ming was getting anxious.
In his previous life, he didn't pay much attention to this virtual online game. After all, he was just an office worker and didn't have time to immerse himself in the online game world.
In order to earn money to buy a house and to get married and have children in the future, I have no choice but to devote all my time to work.
This caused them to miss the opportunity to change their fate.
Two years after the open beta launch of the virtual reality game, "Gods" experienced its first real-world feedback loop, only then did people in the real world belatedly realize how extraordinary the game was.
This change alarmed national institutions around the world, and a large number of military forces began to be deployed to the game "Gods".
Government agencies are spending lavishly on purchasing game equipment and recruiting top-tier gamers.
He started playing the game around that time, but he was two years behind, and the gap was too big for him to catch up with the top players.
Then, the game "Gods" was in open beta for 6 years.
This is the third instance of strength being given back.
Large numbers of demons descended upon the real world, burning, killing, and looting.
After four years of development, he survived the first monster invasion.
It has been in public beta for 8 years.
The game is experiencing its fourth instance of positive feedback.
This time, the monster invasion is even more ferocious.
Although he survived, he paid the price of losing an arm.
10 years of public testing.
This time, there was no return of power; instead, the world merged.
Their world was completely integrated into the magical world.
It became a continent within the magical world.
They also fully inherited all the power from the game "Gods".
From that year onwards.
The game is no longer a game; it has become reality.
The game system also disappeared completely, and the talents in the game became their own talents and skills.
Lu Ming also understood that the so-called game system was just a cameo appearance by the Heavenly Dao.
From this moment on, they had no more game quests, no more dungeons, and no more fountains.
Fighting monsters is a real and tangible experience.
Injuries can only be healed with magic, and there is no longer a resurrection mechanism after death unless you have a resurrection skill.
The disaster began at that moment.
20 years of public testing.
After 10 years of hard work and struggle, he finally settled down in the magical world.
I thought everything would get better, but little did I know that this year would be the moment of true disaster.
A series of faint cracks appeared in the sky.
Countless monsters and demons have invaded this world.
The natives of the magical world were powerless to resist, and they awakened the sleeping gods through faith.
The gods awoke, and one powerful god after another thwarted this crisis.
But just a few days later, the invading world also sent forth demon kings.
Their strength rivals that of the gods; they mock the gods' weakness and take them completely in contempt.
It was as if the gods were nothing more than clowns in the eyes of the demon king.
Faced with the Demon King's mockery, the gods could only be powerless and furious, only later learning the reason through his subsequent investigation.
This occurred before the magical world merged with the real world.
The magical world has long been at war with the invading world.
That will be Ragnarok.
The magical world is no match for the invading world.
The invasion passage was only temporarily sealed after the fall of many gods.
Next, the magical world prepared to merge with a level one world, hoping to raise its world level through the merger.
21 years of public testing.
One god after another died at the hands of the Demon King, and he himself died in battle at the hands of a demon general.
"Now that I've been reborn, I must seize this opportunity!"
Lu Ming quickly took out his life savings and bought a virtual gaming pod from the official website.
A single gaming pod can cost 500,000!
Although you can buy cheap gaming helmets, those things only cost 10,000 each.
However, gaming helmets have limitations; players can only play for eight hours a day before being forced offline. This is to protect the health of players.
The gaming pod doesn't have this limitation; it comes equipped with nutrient solution, allowing you to perfectly immerse yourself in the game while lying in it.
Even if you're immersed in the game 24 hours a day, there's no problem.
The nutrient solution only needs to be changed once a week.
As soon as the order was placed, staff came to his home that evening to install the equipment.
The staff were quite surprised to see the rented room where Lu Ming lived.
I assumed the buyer would be either extremely wealthy or have some financial resources.
After all, a gaming pod costs 500,000.
The buyer ended up living in a rented apartment.
However, they didn't say anything. If someone has the money and is willing to buy, it's none of their business to interfere.
After installing all the equipment and teaching them how to use the gaming pod, they left.
Lu Ming looked at the brand-new gaming pod and began to complete the preparations.
First, the nutrient solution was installed; ten units were installed in total. The game pod has an automatic nutrient solution replacement function.
The maximum number of replacements is ten.
I glanced at the time.
22:47
There was still more than an hour until midnight.
Lu Ming ordered a lavish takeout meal.
If I want to have a big meal again starting tomorrow, I'll have to improve my skills to meet my expectations.
With so many crises looming ahead, he cannot afford to be complacent.
23:57
Lu Ming lay down in the virtual game pod.
[Game is loading...]
[The game "Gods" has launched...]
[There is 1 minute and 54 seconds left until the game officially launches.]
Please select the profession you created.
At this moment, Lu Ming's consciousness had arrived in a virtual space.
There are five classes to choose from: Mage, Warrior, Assassin, Priest, and Tank.
In his previous life, he chose the profession of a mage, so he chose the same profession this time. After all, he has the advantage of experience, so he has to consider it first.
[Successful career choice...]
[Start drawing talents...]
[Congratulations to the player for awakening the A-level talent 'Strong Attack']
Strong Attack (Rank A): Increases spell damage by 30%.
Seeing this, Lu Ming gave a wry smile. Is this still the same talent?
He also awakened this talent in his previous life. It seems that the awakened talent skill has nothing to do with external things, but is related to oneself.
I thought I would awaken some amazing talent after being reborn, but it seems I can only rely on my past life's experience to stay ahead.
Want to defy fate and change your destiny?
"!"
Lu Ming was startled. This voice was definitely not the game system's voice. Could it be that his cheat system had been activated?
"And you are?"
The powerful beings of this vast world, seeing an impending calamity befalling this realm, wish to conduct an experiment.
The world is vast!
Lu Ming was somewhat excited. Having read the novel, he naturally understood its meaning. This meant that as long as he could latch onto this powerful figure, his future would be bright.
As for what the experiment was, it was simply that the powerful being wanted to test his supernatural abilities.
It's alright to be a test subject if others are helping me.
"Please give your orders, senior!"
Lu Ming made up his mind.
Chu Ge also greatly admired this courage. If you're weak, don't have wild ideas. Wait until you have the ability before you start thinking about it.
【Very well, then I will bestow upon you this innate skill according to this realm's system.】
Chu Ge opened the Heavenly Dao Mall and generated goods for this world.
Talents, Job Change Books, Skills, Weapons, etc.
He first opened the talent interface.
A-level talent only costs 100,000 investment points, that's so cheap!
