Jinghai City, Linjiang Province, Jinghai University North Road, Xinglu Internet Café.

Lu Zhixing woke up from a deep sleep and felt his arm tingle.

Then, he heard the sounds of a keyboard and mouse around him, interspersed with the occasional knock on the table.

"Damn, three fights and one is counter-killed, will you play?"

"Did you see it, I was a wave of Tianxiu just now!"

Lu Zhixing rubbed his temples that were a little painful, and after opening his sleepy eyes and looking around, he was stunned.

What's the situation?

This is the hall of an Internet café, and the attendance rate is not high, only three or four percent. The customers are basically young people, most of them are playing games, and a few people are watching dramas, and the atmosphere of the Internet café is not bad.

And Lu Zhixing seems to have fallen asleep on his stomach on a machine in the corner of the Internet café.

"How could it be...... Overtime and hallucinations? ”

Lu Zhixing subconsciously touched his mobile phone, but found that the latest folding screen he had just purchased with a month's salary had disappeared, and was replaced by a rather ordinary-looking student machine.

The cheap plastic bezel and the screen-to-body ratio that is behind the times all show that this mobile phone is only at the level of a thousand-yuan machine even in his original world.

The term high EQ is called youth version, and the term low EQ is called e-waste.

When Lu Zhixing turned on the front camera of the camera and saw a somewhat unfamiliar handsome face, his mood changed from dazed to shocked.

Damn, I crossed the ......

A large number of memories poured into his mind like a storm, accompanied by a large number of complex emotions of the original owner, instantly drowning all his thoughts.

Lu Zhixing, 18 years old this year, is a freshman majoring in game design at Jinghai University.

His parents died early, and he and his brother Lu Mingyuan depended on each other.

In order to make a living, Lu Mingyuan has changed many occupations, set up stalls, worked as a waiter, and delivered takeaways. It wasn't until three years ago that the two brothers got better with the hard-earned principal of this Internet café.

Lu Zhixing was finally able to study seriously without any worries, and was successfully admitted to the game design major of Jinghai University.

It's just that not long after the lives of the two brothers ushered in a turning point, they encountered another crisis.

There was a problem with the operation of the Internet café, the attendance rate dropped sharply, and although the elder brother Lu Mingyuan tried his best to behave lightly, he was often so anxious that he couldn't sleep all night, and his hairline didn't know how much he had receded.

Lu Zhixing was thinking about it, when he saw Lu Mingyuan walking over with a briefcase, as if he was going out.

"Zhixing, I made an appointment with the promotion leaders of a few game companies in the evening, and I may not come back until very late, so you remember to eat on time."

Although Lu Mingyuan's appearance is somewhat similar to Lu Zhixing, many people don't think that the two are brothers at first sight.

This is because Lu Mingyuan took on the pressure of life too early, which led to a receding hairline, more wrinkles, and a distorted figure, which made the two brothers have a relatively large difference in temperament.

"You don't have to worry about money, I'm already thinking of a way, you are still the same as before, do your studies well, graduate smoothly, go to a big company to find a good job, your brother and I will be relieved, understand?"

Lu Mingyuan hurriedly explained a few words, and without giving Lu Zhixing too much opportunity to speak, he had already left the Internet café.

Lu Zhixing opened his mouth, but he didn't find a chance to interject.

That's it since childhood.

In the memory of the original owner, the elder brother Lu Mingyuan always tried his best to meet all the requirements needed for his studies, and he was able to save money, and every time he encountered a crisis, Lu Mingyuan always happily told him not to worry, and said that he would solve it.

Although in terms of results, Lu Mingyuan has indeed solved every crisis without danger, but only the two brothers know the hardships.

"Forget it, with his character, he won't listen to what I say now.

"I'd better figure it out for myself."

Lu Zhixing fell into deep thought.

According to the memory of the original owner, the key to the current problem of Internet cafes is the funding gap. At the end of the day, it's still about finding a way to make money.

"I don't know anything about the operation of Internet cafes, but the technology in this world seems to be quite developed, and as a senior dog planner, I have many successful game cases in my mind......

"Maybe you can try making games to make money?"

……

According to the memory of the original owner, Lu Zhixing came to the utility room on the second floor of the Internet café.

In addition to piling up the clutter of the Internet café, there is also a camp bed where the two brothers often rest after their night shifts.

In the corner, Lu Zhixing found a packed cardboard box.

This is the lowest version of the fifth-generation VR game headset that the original owner worked hard to save money during the summer vacation and spent more than 9,000 to buy.

This kind of helmet is currently the hottest digital product, it has an epoch-making technological innovation, and for the first time, virtual reality technology has realized the connection of consciousness.

But now, the original owner has packed it up with the intention of selling it.

The original owner's idea is that although the money is not much, at least it can help his brother's Internet café support for a while longer, maybe it will usher in a turnaround at that time?

But Lu Zhixing looked at the packaged game helmet, but felt that this was obviously a small pattern.

What if this gaming helmet can be sold at a discount of 89 percent?

Can a few thousand yuan really play a decisive role in the cost of an Internet café? I'm afraid it's a drop in the bucket.

There is a game editor in the VR headset, which can be used to make games!

Just do it, Lu Zhixing lay down on the marching bed and pressed the start button of the VR headset.

Then, he felt a tingling sensation coming from the place where the helmet came into contact with his brain, wrapping around a wide area from his forehead to the back of his head, and his consciousness became drowsy, gradually entering a half-asleep trance.

When Lu Zhixing became sober again and looked around, he found that he was already in a pure white illusory space.

In front of me, the logo of Nagato Group, a VR headset research and development company, appears in the field of vision, which looks like a virtual hollow ball wrapped in countless vines.

What surprised Lu Zhixing was that the original owner hadn't changed the default nickname, and the nickname column was still a string of garbled characters.

So he reached out and touched the edit button.

"Please enter a new nickname:"

Lu Zhixing thought about it and wrote the words "stranger" in the input box.

The reason for this nickname is mainly due to two reasons.

On the one hand, Lu Zhixing is a traverser, and at this time there is a mentality of "being alone in a foreign land as a stranger"; On the other hand, Lu Zhixing, as a gamer, prefers the stalk of "despicable outlander".

"Changing the nickname successfully! Stranger, welcome to the virtual world of 'Taiqing'! ”

The surrounding scenery changed rapidly, and Lu Zhixing found himself in a vast hall of resplendent gold.

This is the default login space, but Lu Zhixing has no intention of watching it now, so he explores around and quickly finds the entrance to the built-in editor of the VR headset.

This is a special pure white door, without any patterns or patterns, and it looks very different from the surrounding style.

Lu Zhixing pushed the door in and came to the inside of the editor.

It's an infinite white space, empty except for the inconspicuous dark grid lines used to confirm the ruler.

"The question is, how do you use this editor......

"Hey, it seems that there is a way to use it in the memory of the original owner?"

Lu Zhixing made a few simple gestures, and immediately brought up the resource panel and the editing panel.

The original owner is a game design student, and after buying a VR headset, he tried to make his own game with the editor and mastered the corresponding operations, which is reasonable, but the problem is ......

In that case, why did he sell the VR headset?

With doubts, Lu Zhixing looked at the resource interface of the editor and instantly understood everything.

"Because inside the editor......

"Nope! Yes! Plain! Material! Yes! ”

There are only a few very crude, rudimentary, and outdated materials in the editor, and they are sold very expensively, and no one will buy them except for a very few who are not bad for money.

The high-end materials needed to make a serious game, whether it is concept art, action or large scenes, need to spend a lot of money to produce. Either form your own team, or find outsourcing, anyway, it's not something ordinary people can afford!

It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, she has empty ideas, no materials, and still can't make games that can be put on the shelves and sold for money, which naturally does not help the current situation of Internet cafes.

Lu Zhixing was speechless, he silently withdrew from the virtual space and took off the game helmet.

It seems that whether this VR game headset is sold or not will not affect the outcome of the Internet café's eventual closure.

I sent it, and I opened it!

However, at this moment, a few lines of handwriting suddenly appeared in Lu Zhixing's vision without warning.

【Life Playing Game Activated!】 】

You are the only player in this game. 】

[Game function 1 - Play: The game will randomly release you with play-up tasks and provide you with the necessary skills needed to play.] After completing the mission, you will receive cosplay points and random rewards. 】

[Game function 2 - Materials: You can consume a certain amount of points to draw materials from reality and automatically generate the materials needed to make games. 】

[This game is currently a trial version, and players can activate the official version of the function after reaching the first stage goal (earning 100,000 yuan) with their own efforts!] 】

[The official version will open the points mall, and you can use your points to purchase rich rewards including but not limited to memory capsules and various skill books!] 】

Lu Zhixing was stunned for a moment, and then a burst of joy surged into his heart.

"Sure enough, according to the general online text routine, there must be a gold finger after crossing, this is my gold finger?

"It's not the kind of simple, crude, direct money system, but it seems to automatically generate usable game materials? Don't I have the resources to make a game? ”

As long as you can get the materials, then the game editor in this VR headset will come in handy!

Of course, Lu Zhixing still has many questions about the specific use of this golden finger, but this is not a big problem, just explore it slowly.

Do you want to claim your first Main Story Mission? 】

Lu Zhixing nodded decisively: "Receive it!" ”

[Main Story Mission: Please play as a tree that strives to thrive regardless of wind or rain.] 】

[Acquired Playing Skills - I Am a Tree: Clear your mind and clear all thoughts; Stay still and stop all movement. 】

Lu Zhixing was stunned for a moment, and then a question mark slowly floated above his head.

"Huh?

"Co-authoring your role target, isn't it a person?"

[People, is a relatively complex target to play, the difficulty is high, beyond the player's current level, so it is only activated in the official version. 】

[The difficulty of the trial version is low, and the playing target is relatively simple, so there is a possibility that there may be inhuman playing targets.] 】

The difficulty of playing the role of God is low, and you still think about it for me?

Lu Zhipedestrian was dizzy, and this first task almost flashed his waist.

"Then the name of your game shouldn't be called 'Life Playing Game', it should be called 'Tree Life Playing Game'!

"Can you change the target?"

[The main line of the role of the task cannot be replaced, can not be abandoned, please correct the attitude of the player and complete the play seriously. ] 】

"Your uncle......"

Lu Zhixing had mixed feelings in his heart, but after thinking about it for a long time, he could only accept it.

"Well, it's really not that hard, let's try it."

Lu Zhixing looked around and saw that there was no one, and secretly closed the doors and windows of the Internet café utility room to prevent his stupid acting behavior from causing too much spiritual shock to the ignorant passers-by.

Then, with his arms outstretched to imitate a tree branch, he stood straight, closed his eyes, and tried to imagine himself as a tree.

Fortunately, no one saw it, otherwise Lu Zhixing would have embarrassedly picked out the three-bedroom living room with his toes.

I don't know if the skill has taken effect, Lu Zhixing's thoughts are really empty completely, standing straight and motionless.

However, after a long time, the completion of the main line in the field of vision behind the target has not changed at all, and it is still 0%.

"What's the situation? Am I playing the wrong way? ”

【Playing Guidelines:】

[1.Please play with all your heart, and try to match the goal of the play as much as possible.] (Achieved)]

[2.Please play in an appropriate environment in reality, and the role cannot be separated from the specific scene.] (Not reached)】

Lu Zhixing's mouth opened slightly.

Why is the play ineffective? Because he was on the second floor of the Internet café at this time.

Have you ever seen a tree growing on the second floor of an Internet café?

At least the place where you step on it has to be a piece of land that can take root, right?

The game judged that he didn't play it, and there was really nothing wrong with it.

Lu Zhixing was silent for a long time: "Okay, you won!" ”

After some ideological struggle, he left the Internet café, swept a shared bicycle, and rode to the nearest Longtan Park.
