Soon, the system's voice sounded, "Star games take a long time to play. If you want to complete them, it's best to equip yourself with a life-support device. Otherwise, if you quit the game during the game, it may cause the game character to die unexpectedly."

A long time?

Chen Xu was delighted. This was good news for him. The longer he stayed in the dream game, the more he would gain.

He asked, "How long can this two-star game last?"

"It depends on how long your character can survive. Once you die, it means the game is over."

"If I don't die, can it continue forever?"

"Yes."

Chen Xu was a little surprised. This was amazing. If he could live until death, that would be several decades, which was equivalent to experiencing one more life.

He then asked, "What is the ratio of time in the game to time in reality?"

"Four hours in reality is one hundred and eighty days in dreams."

Four hours is half a year, one day is three years, ten days is thirty years, and one month is ninety years.

This is such a good deal.

His mind suddenly became active. He thought that he could learn so much in such a long time. Now he felt that the only thing that restricted his career development was his experience and knowledge.

However, the premise of all this is that the character in his dream cannot die.

He asked, "Can I pause the game when I quit it?"

The system replied, "No. This is a multiplayer game."

Chen Xu said helplessly, "But this device cannot connect to the Internet. In fact, only I and my playmates participated."

"This is a setting of the game itself and cannot be changed."

In other words, this approach doesn't work.

He calculated that even if he slept twelve hours a day and was awake for twelve hours, that would be a year and a half in the game. Even if he found equipment similar to a life support capsule, the nature of the game would definitely include some accidents, and he wouldn't even know how he died.

"There are only two chances. It would be a waste if we just wait a few years."

He felt somewhat unwilling.

He had asked the system before, and found out that star-level games can only be purchased with credit points, not game coins. And if you want to make money in the game, forget it. It is estimated that he can only get these two star-level games in his lifetime, so he must make good use of them.

Gradually, he made a decision in his heart.

…………

The next day, Chen Xu woke up early in the morning as usual, washed, changed clothes, and went out for a morning run.

After running, I returned home sweating and took a shower. Zeng Wenli had already prepared breakfast and was washing the pot in the kitchen.

"Mom, you sit down too." After Chen Xu sat down, he said to her, "I have something to tell you."

Zeng Wenli wiped her hands and walked out. "What's the matter?"

Chen Xu said, "I have to go abroad tomorrow. I'll have someone drive you home this afternoon."

"Why do you want to go abroad all of a sudden?"

"I have a new project, and a foreign investment company is interested in it. They asked me to come over to discuss it. This is a rare opportunity that I cannot miss."

Zeng Wenli heard that it was a work matter and didn't ask any more questions, "So, how long will you be gone?"

"It's hard to say. It will take at least half a month, maybe a month. It depends on how the discussion goes. You don't know anyone here, so you will definitely not be used to living here. You should go home first."

Zeng Wenli was a little worried about him, "But, your body..."

"I'm almost well now. Besides, I didn't go there alone. I had an assistant and a translator with me."

Zeng Wenli was relieved when she heard that someone was going with her. "This is your first time going abroad, so you have to be careful about everything..."

Chen Xu listened to her instructions and nodded continuously. Finally, he said, "Ask Ziqi later whether she wants to go back with you or go back to her father's place."

"Okay, I'll ask her later."

At this time, Chen Ziqi was still sleeping in.

After Chen Xu finished his business, he took his briefcase and went out.

…………

Secretary Jin was surprised but didn't ask him what he was going to do. "What if something unexpected happens?"

"If you encounter something you can't handle, call Ms. Yang. I'll send you her phone number later." Chen Xu has already thought it through.

"Okay, Mr. Chen." Secretary Jin had no other questions.

"By the way, if my mom or dad calls and asks you, just say I'm on a business trip abroad. Don't let anything slip."

"I see."

After Chen Xu finished talking to her, he left the company and sent a WeChat message to Yang Jinxia, ​​asking her to come out and meet him.

Half an hour later, Chen Xu saw her car, opened the door and got in.

Yang Jinxia asked, "Why are you looking for me so urgently?"

Chen Xu looked towards the driver's seat.

She understood and said, "Don't worry, the back and the cab are soundproofed, the driver can't hear us talking here."

Chen Xu said, "I need to sleep continuously for at least half a month. I need a place where I won't be disturbed and where professional medical staff can take care of me. Can you find one?"

"Half a month?" Yang Jinxia looked a little worried.

"It's estimated to be half a month, possibly longer. During this time, I will fall into a deep sleep and cannot be disturbed. I can only survive by intravenous drip."

Yang Jinxia said with worry on her face, "Is it necessary to do this? Lying in bed for too long will definitely have an impact on your health."

Chen Xu said firmly, "This is a rare opportunity. I can't miss it."

"I understand. I'll prepare it for you. When do you want it?"

"The sooner the better, preferably tomorrow."

"good."

"When the time comes, you will receive an invitation and we can meet inside."

Yang Jinxia said with a half-smile, "When you say we, it doesn't just mean you and me, right?"

Chen Xu explained in a low voice, "That system had some unfair terms. When you entered there, you automatically agreed to those terms. I only found out about it later."

The smile on Yang Jinxia's face deepened. "Aren't you afraid that we will fight in there?"

Chen Xu sighed, "No matter how wrong it is, it's all my fault. I just hope you don't hurt them."

"What if they want to hurt me?"

Chen Xu was speechless after being asked this question. Only at this moment did he begin to realize how difficult the path he had chosen was.

"Okay, I promise you, as long as they call me Big Sister, I won't make things difficult for them."

Chen Xu's scalp felt numb.

…………

At noon, Chen Xu went home. His mother had already taken a bus back to her hometown, and it was probably almost time. Chen Ziqi was still there, and she was going back to her father's place.

Chen Ziqi was sitting on the sofa watching TV. When she saw him, she asked, "Are you really going abroad?"

"Fake."

"Ah?" She was stunned, but she saw Chen Xu's expression was a little serious. Realizing that something important was going on, she sat up straight and asked with shining eyes, "So, you deliberately sent Second Aunt away?"

"I want you to do something for me."

"Just tell me, I'm very good at keeping secrets and I promise I won't tell anyone."

Chen Xu said, "Tomorrow, I will give you an address. Three days later, you go to that place and help me take photos, preferably record videos, and then..."

Chen Ziqi became more and more excited as he listened, and said, "Okay, you, I will definitely perform well when the time comes."

"Remember, don't tell my parents unless it's necessary."

"Okay. Leave it to me." Chen Ziqi patted his chest and promised.
