Chapter 477 The Game's Encounter with a Passerby in the Real World (Part 1)
"Jiang Yue, shall we go shopping tomorrow?"
"No, I have something to do this week, I'll go another time."
"Okay, then I'll ask someone else."
"By the way, could you explain to me how to solve this problem?"
"Let me see. This problem is simple. First, draw auxiliary lines, then... like this... do you understand?"
"I understand."
"There are more questions like this later. You'll understand once you do a few more."
After tutoring her deskmate on a few math problems, and glancing at the words "82 days until the college entrance exam" written on the blackboard, you can probably guess who Jiang Yue is. That's right, she's a fresh-faced high school student, a high school student who has just come of age, and meets the basic requirements for playing games.
Why did Jiang Yue say that? What are the basic requirements for playing games? Because two games are about to appear in this world, and only people who are 18 years old or older can participate. Originally, it was one game, but because Earth and another planet are merging, it has become two games. Both games are actually real worlds, and you can bring the strength from the game into reality.
The first game features a female protagonist who was used, betrayed, and murdered by her family in her previous life. She is reborn and seeks revenge on them while saving the world. The second game features a male protagonist who travels from Earth to the Blue Star and then into the game world. A person can have three chances to travel through time. Can you believe how incredible that is?
Jiang Yue refused her classmate's invitation because the game featuring the female protagonist was going into beta testing this week. Strictly speaking, each person could only enter one game because the game was bound to their soul. However, Jiang Yue wanted to do something unconventional. She planned to manually separate a weak soul and change the soul fluctuations. If she could fool the game's monitoring rules, she could go to two worlds at the same time.
Even if you don't succeed, it doesn't matter. Both games have high combat power. There may be differences in strength in the early stages, but they are the same in the later stages, so you won't lose out by choosing either one.
...
After the bell rang, the homeroom teacher came in, carrying several stacks of test papers. After putting the papers down, she wiped the sweat from her forehead and said to the students, "Come on, a few of you come up and distribute the test papers. Even though it's a weekend, we still have to do the test papers."
"Alright, all the test papers have been handed out. In my opinion, with the college entrance exam just around the corner, why bother with a break? Remember to study more and play less when you get home, blah blah blah..."
It was clear that the homeroom teacher didn't want a holiday, but she couldn't disobey the school's or even the education bureau's regulations. After speaking for five minutes, Jiang Yue and the others finally finished class. By then, most of the other classes had already left: "Alright, drive slowly on your way home. Remember to do your test papers. We'll go over them again on Monday. Anyone who hasn't done theirs, just wait and see."
Jiang Yue rode her bicycle home from school, which wasn't far from her home. Her deskmate also rode with her. Their homes were quite close. After entering the residential area, the two separated because they lived in different apartment buildings.
After parking her bicycle, Jiang Yue slung her backpack over her shoulder and went upstairs. There weren't many people around at this hour, so the elevator was easy to wait for. When the elevator came down, Jiang Yue checked her phone. Bai Ze had already downloaded the game, but it wouldn't be available until midnight. Jiang Yue wasn't in a hurry; she could finish her exams beforehand.
After reaching the 16th floor, Jiang Yue put away her phone and prepared to open the door. Unexpectedly, as soon as her hand touched the doorknob, her father opened the door: "Yue'er, give your schoolbag to Dad. Change your shoes, wash your hands, and go eat. Your mom made braised pork today, it was delicious."
"Sister, sister, sister, you're back! Eat meat, eat meat!"
Jiang Yue changed her shoes, picked up the little boy who was clinging to her leg, touched his little face, and asked, "Was Junjun good today?"
"Goodness, you ate a whole bowl of rice!" He gestured with his hands as he spoke, and he would have fallen off Jiang Yue if she hadn't been holding him tightly.
"Wow, that's amazing! You eat more than your older sister."
Jiang Yue was playing with her younger brother when her mother took the child from her arms. She patted Junjun in her arms and said, "Stop clinging to your sister all day long. Your sister hasn't eaten yet and is hungry. You don't want your sister to go hungry, do you?"
"Go wash your hands quickly, the food has just been heated up."
After washing up, Jiang's father had already served Jiang Yue rice. The braised pork that Jiang's mother made was the kind with big chunks, four pieces in the casserole. If the cooking skills weren't good, it wouldn't taste good and would be easy to get tired of. However, Jiang Yue's maternal grandparents' family runs a restaurant, and her maternal grandfather is a chef. Although Jiang's mother didn't learn much, she mastered the essence of braised pork.
Besides braised pork, there was also a dish of hand-pulled pork ribs and stir-fried green beans. Jiang's parents knew Jiang Yue's appetite and left her just the right amount, so she could still eat some fruit after the meal.
After dinner, Jiang's parents went to wash the pots and pans. Jiang Yue wanted to help, but they wouldn't let her. They said she was tired enough after a day of school and shouldn't do this. So Jiang Yue held Junjun and watched TV. By the time Jiang Yue finished eating her fruit, Junjun in her arms had fallen asleep.
Jiang Yue returned at almost ten o'clock. Usually, she would have fallen asleep by now, only managing to stay awake because of her longing for her sister. Now that her sister was back, her willpower to stay awake was gone, and she fell asleep.
Jiang Yue picked him up and put him on his little bed. The three-year-old boy had already started sleeping alone. After covering him with a blanket, she returned to the living room. Today, the game server was open, and Jiang Yue didn't plan to sleep. She would finish the test papers in her schoolbag first so that she could concentrate on playing the game without being disturbed.
Jiang Yue didn't plan to let her parents play the first game that appeared, nor did she recommend it to other family members, because the game was quite depressing for the female protagonist. There were a lot of scheming people in the later part of the game. If it weren't for the changes caused by the merging of the worlds, the female protagonist would have gone through a lot of difficulties before finally saving her world.
Why not let them play the second game? Strictly speaking, the protagonist's game is a wish-fulfillment story, while the second game involves a god from another world pulling people there. This god is a righteous god with both power and vision. The protagonist of this game is far inferior to the protagonist of this god-like world. Moreover, this game is more like an ensemble piece, where everyone has a chance to rise. Although there are old bastards, there are people in front to support them, so there are basically no small fry.
Moreover, the second game appeared a few days later than the first game, around the time the first game's first closed beta test was completed. At that time, the game had not yet launched a large-scale invasion, so it was estimated that it would not be able to compete with the second game. After all, the second game had a legitimate and compliant cooperation agreement with Earth, and was recommended by the state.
Furthermore, Jiang Yue suspected that the second game might appear even earlier, because negotiations also take time. According to the government's approach, it would probably be open to the general public only after the military has formed combat capabilities. Thinking of this, Jiang Yue used Bai Ze to check, and hehe, that's really the case. However, it is not open for reservations to the public yet, and we can only wait for the government to announce it.
