"You dare? I'll hang you up right now!"
Gu Yi raised an eyebrow and looked at her threateningly.
"Come on, come on! I'll expose your identity later!"
Xia Ke'an stood her ground, her composure seemingly ineffective only in front of Miss Black Rabbit, who was as childish as could be.
Just as the two were about to start pulling each other's hair, Xu Shi, who was lying to the side, suddenly twitched slightly.
"...Cough, who's messing with you?"
Gu Yi snapped out of her daze, waved her hand vigorously, and made a very magnanimous gesture.
"You make it sound like you don't want to joke around. You can't even take a joke. Hehehe."
The white-haired loli immediately became much more restrained, subconsciously shrinking her neck.
It's clear that even though he's currently unconscious, he still has considerable intimidating power over those who have already been thoroughly dealt with by Xu Shi.
"Want some?"
Gu Yi thought for a moment and then handed her a piece of candy.
What flavor is it?
"Strawberry."
"Oh? Then have one, you do have some taste."
"Call me 'sister'."
"That's enough, little cabbage."
Xia Ke'an made a face, snatched the lollipop, and ran to the other side to keep an eye on the situation for Xu Shi.
With the little boy not around, she has to keep a close eye on everything for him.
The room quickly fell silent.
...
On the other side.
After a brief period of silence, when I opened my eyes again, a different scene greeted me.
Shaking his head to clear his mind, he clapped his hands and found that the feedback from his five senses was far more real than he had imagined.
The story of "God's Descent" takes place in a fantasy world called... I forgot what it was called, where those chosen by the gods are granted... I forgot that too.
In summary, this is a highly open-ended game with a high degree of freedom, and it was released in both console and VR versions.
Xu Shi hadn't really understood why the latter's sales far exceeded the former's before, but now he knew. Such a realistic experience was indeed very appealing.
No wonder many people consider it the best way to relax—after a tiring day at work, you can come back, put on the helmet, and enjoy yourself. Regardless of how it is in reality, here you can truly be a king.
This device is similar to a brain-computer interface, the difference being that anyone can wear the helmet, but its design in various aspects is indeed worth learning from.
In comparison, the console version is probably just a way for players to farm materials and complete daily tasks in their spare time. No wonder Gu Yi complained about herself back then. In the eyes of VR players, console players are probably just trying to get by...
However, he wasn't there to just enjoy playing games; he had serious business to attend to.
So after making a few adjustments, he followed the directions on the map and headed towards the most densely populated town in the vicinity.
With the help of the cheat, it was almost a matter of a few breaths.
As soon as he stopped outside the city, he saw a huge crowd surging towards the city center.
"What are you doing, buddy?"
Xu Shi raised an eyebrow and casually grabbed a passerby to ask.
"A new player?"
The man didn't seem to care much about his deliberately handsome face, and hurriedly explained, "Let's go together? Today is the day the divine messenger preaches!"
"Is that so?"
Xu Shi feigned surprise, "What kind of event is it? Some kind of NP (multiplayer online role-playing) giveaway or something?"
"Not really... Ugh, it's hard to explain to you. Come on over, you'll see!"
The man impatiently tugged at him, "If you're going to leave, hurry up and grab a front seat!"
"OK."
Xu Shi already had a plan in mind, and with a smile, she rushed over with him.
When they arrived, the square in the center of the city was already packed with people, but they could still vaguely see a masked man wearing a black robe and with wings on his back standing on the high platform.
"God said, 'Let there be light.'"
As the masked man read softly, the book in his hand emitted a gentle white light, enveloping him.
A tidal wave of cheers erupted from the audience.
Xu Shi looked at the sweating soybeans, what the hell is there to cheer about?
He pulled at the corner of his eye and immediately recognized that this was the person he was looking for—if it wasn't Shen He, or rather, who else could it be but a projection of Shen He's consciousness?
However, judging from this situation, his control over this group of players is quite formidable.
Although reluctant to admit it, Xu Shi has to say that "United We Stand" is indeed more effective at brainwashing than his own "Increase in Evil Thoughts," and the effect is even more pronounced when it comes to this kind of virtual platform.
After all, it's like getting something for nothing. They didn't even issue any game currency, yet people are already going crazy for it... Even if they've been operating for a long time, in Xu Shi's opinion, they could never achieve this effect in the real world.
Perhaps we can think of it as a Trojan virus? Once infected, this thing spreads incredibly fast—it might only need to find one or two people at first, but once it can take down those one or two, its influence will expand exponentially.
Sounds a bit like a pyramid scheme? That's roughly the idea.
It's understandable that things have developed to this point.
"God says we should no longer passively accept our fate!"
As we pondered, the virus spoke again, "We should stand up, unite our strength, and fight back with one fist!"
"Resist what?"
Someone asked tentatively.
"Rebel against the corporations!"
Shen He shouted, "No matter how powerful you are in the game, it's all fake! If we want to end the suffering in reality, we should wake up!"
