Wei Tian stared at the interviewer in front of him, slightly nervously holding his resume.

He wasn't sure if the interviewer would be interested in his resume, a diploma like his own, which is a big deal in today's society.

He has no outstanding advantages, except that he is more delicate and slightly better in terms of women's popularity, for outsiders, he has no other advantages.

The interviewer's fingers are rhythmically tapping on the desk.

"Mr. Wei, your resume is very good, but our company is small, and we may not be able to hire a capable person like Mr. Wei."

With that, the interviewer took a sip of the tea on the desk, staring at the door intentionally or unconsciously.

Wei Tian knew that the interviewer was reminding him to hurry up and leave.

Towering tall buildings abound, and at noon, the sun is shining, and the scorching sun pierces people's skin.

Today, Luzhou City, with a population of several million, can only barely be counted as a fifth-tier city, and today in 2040, the earth's resources are scarce, the population has already exceeded 10 billion, and huge survival pressure is flooding the world.

"Huh."

Wei Tian sneered, crumpled his resume, and threw it into the trash.

He dialed Li Na's phone.

This girl is his girlfriend in college, both of them are looking for jobs, and the relationship is not bad, for three or four years, more or less the storm has survived.

The phone is connected.

"Honey!"

"What's wrong? Didn't you go looking for a job? ”

On the phone, Li Na's voice was a little impatient.

"I found it, but I didn't find it."

"Weitian, you're not too young, you can't let us live in low-rent housing all the time, right? Don't you know what this society is like? ”

Li Na's voice raised a few points, full of dissatisfaction.

"Honey, listen to me, I will definitely work hard, please believe me."

"What do I believe you? Believe you can't even find a job for two or three thousand yuan? ”

"Honey, listen to me......"

"Enough, Wei Tian, I've put up with you for a long time, let's break up!"

"Dear ......"

"Doodoo ......"

Wei Tian held the phone that had been hung up sluggishly, and pestle in the bustling crowd.

He felt that the sun was suddenly not hot, and even a little cold, as if he had made a hole in his heart, and the wind was blowing painfully.

Wei Tian returned to the low-rent house, flipped through the photos of Li Na on his phone, and the corners of his eyes were sore.

"Four years, four years, you can go."

As soon as Wei Tian grabbed the wine on the computer desk and poured it into his mouth, the wine was so strong that he choked on tears.

His parents died when he was a child, and he was brought up by his grandfather, who died of illness not long ago.

He was left alone in the world.

He still remembers that his grandfather died in the hospital, and the whole corridor was empty, with only a white cloth, and he was sitting in the corridor.

It felt like abandonment.

In a blur, Wei Tian fell asleep.

Knock knock!

There was a sharp knock on the door.

Wei Tian woke up in a drowsy mood, and when he looked again, it was already dark outside the window.

"Young man, your rent has been delayed for two months, and if you don't pay it by the end of this month, I'll have to throw your things out."

Wei Tian didn't answer, now he only has a few dozen yuan on him, not to mention the rent, and even his life in the past few days has become a problem.

If you answer, isn't this self-inflicted?

Knock knock!

The landlord knocked on the door a few more times, but when no one opened the door, he didn't continue to toss.

Long.

Wei Tian repeatedly confirmed that there was no one outside the door before opening the door.

There are only ten days left before the end of the month, Wei Tian really can't think of a way to get a few thousand yuan in these ten days, if there is a job, it would be easy to do, but today the interview is yellow.

You can't even interview for such a small company, let alone anything else?

Wei Tian was disheartened, and walked out in a daze with half a bottle of wine on the computer desk.

The streets at night are bustling with lights and beautiful cars.

The sports car roared out for a long time.

Once upon a time, he also had some lofty ambitions, but this so-called dream couldn't help but be whipped by reality, and it was shocking to pour his blood cold.

Wei Tian stared at the beautiful women passing by on the street in a bit of a daze, and the smell of perfume lingered for a long time.

"What do you see?"

Suddenly, a shout interrupted his thoughts.

Not far away, a young man kicked a beggar far away.

"Get away, don't let Lao Tzu see you, bad luck!"

With that, he spat at the beggar's side.

Seeing this, a few other young people laughed a few times, pulled the kicking young man, hugged a few beautiful girls and got into the car and left.

The frolicking streets were not affected by this incident and were as lively as ever.

"You, are you alright?"

Wei Tian walked over and helped the beggar up, the beggar was full of bad smell, but he didn't dislike it, and helped the beggar to the corner of the building.

"Thank you, young man."

At this time, Wei Tian looked at the beggar carefully.

This beggar has a filthy face, covered in mud, and is sixty or seventy years old, and his tattered black robe can no longer cover his body, but fortunately, this is May and June, and the air is warm and warm, if it is changed to autumn and winter, I am afraid that this beggar will already die of cold.

Wei Tian suddenly felt a sense of sympathy.

He thought it was absurd.

"Young man, don't you mind giving me some drink?"

The old beggar was not polite either, and laughed.

"Hehe, give."

Wei Tian handed the liquor in his hand to the old beggar.

The two of them are familiar with each other, and you drink it one bite at a time.

At first glance, it was obvious that these were two beggars drinking and talking and laughing.

In the middle of the night, the streets were deserted, there were no more pedestrians, a few shops were closed, and only Wei Tian and the old beggar were left to sleep under the empty corners.

Long.

The old beggar gently snuggled Wei Tian into the corner of the building, stood up by himself, and straightened the shabby robe on his whole body.

"You and I met by chance, and I may not be able to protect it."

The old beggar muttered to himself, and suddenly a black bead appeared in the palm of his right hand, this bead kept rotating, and there was a subtle starlight around it.

"Treat it well, don't disgrace its name, if you don't have strong strength, remember not to expose this treasure."

With that, the old beggar pointed at the black bead, and the black bead turned into a streamer of light and disappeared into Wei Tian's brain.

"Hehe, no one can find it now, who would have guessed that the 'Cosmic Core' would be on such a planet?"

The old beggar laughed, and his figure gradually turned into a phantom and disappeared in place.

……

"Wake up, young man, why are you drunk like this?"

Wei Tian opened his eyes in a daze, the sun on the horizon had faintly appeared, and some faint sunlight made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Wei Tian stood up, tidied up his dirty clothes and pants a few times, and turned around and ran towards his low-rent house.

……

May 20, 2040, is a day to remember and commemorate, and 'Apocalypse' is the launch.

But Wei Tian was not in the mood, there were still ten days, if he couldn't scrape together another 3,000 yuan within these ten days, the landlord would definitely pack his bed and throw it out of the house.

Wei Tian browsed the official website of 'Apocalypse' in confusion.

This game revolutionizes the experience of the world, this is the standard game warehouse, after the human body enters the game warehouse, the game warehouse will automatically scan and bind biometric features, becoming the only login account.

To put it bluntly, if this game is abolished, there is only one way to solve it, and that is to delete the number and repractice.

Wei Tian started playing games in junior high school until he graduated from college, and he knows how difficult it is to develop a game account.

"It's an absolute revolution."

Wei Tian tapped on the keyboard with some excitement.

Apocalypse has a completely immersive experience, which is no different from traveling to another world, and even the tactile pain in the game can be adjusted to the extent you want.

This is a new experience of spiritual opium.

Wei Tian continued to browse the game website of 'Apocalypse', but at this moment, the game warehouses of the game pilots in various cities were selling hotly, and thousands of people were crowded, queuing up to buy them.

Knock knock!

Just when Wei Tian was watching with relish, a knock on the door interrupted Wei Tian.

"Brother, are you there?"

Hearing this, Wei Tian's brows furrowed slightly, and he was naturally familiar with this voice.

This is his little brother, the two grew up together, reading, skipping school, fighting, pickling girls, playing games, they are together all the time, and their relationship is comparable to that of brothers.

Wei Tian opened the door, and sure enough, standing outside the door was his hair Xiao-Zhang Xiaoyu.

"I thought you were dead."

Zhang Xiaoyu is very arrogant, straightforward and fast-hearted, and his jokes are not moderate.

"You can pull it, I won't die if you die."

"Guess what I brought you, brother?"

“……”

"Guess!"

Zhang Xiaoyu took out a pack of cigarettes and lit one himself.

"It's not going to be a game warehouse, is it?"

The corners of Wei Tian's mouth were frivolous.

He knows Zhang Xiaoyu too well, the two have played since childhood, and many games have been played together, and he thinks that 'Apocalypse' has the strength to attract Zhang Xiaoyu.

"Damn, you're really right."

Zhang Xiaoyu laughed and beckoned someone to move the game warehouse into the house.

"Brother, we grew up together, I know your situation, but I can't help you, the only thing I can do is this, I paid the rent for you this year, and this game warehouse will be given to you as a brother."

"I heard that a lot of consortia have settled in this game, if you spend some effort to have fun in it, there will definitely be no problem to solve the problem of food and clothing, and when the time comes, if you need to tell my brother in the game, I can help, I will try my best."

Zhang Xiaoyu entered the house noisily, sat on Wei Tian's bed, and also turned up the official website of 'Apocalypse'.

"It's a really good game, and I've heard that there are more than a billion people around the world."

Zhang Xiaoyu muttered to himself, spitting out smoke rings from time to time.

"How can there be so many people? Just a game. ”

Wei Tian was a little shocked, he really couldn't think of how a game could have a billion people settled.

"It may be to alleviate the pressure on the population, at least it can solve the employment problem of many people, and the time inside is ten to one, and there are more people in it, and there are naturally fewer people outside."

Zhang Xiaoyu said as he browsed the website.

"Brother, do a good job! Although we may not be able to make a name for ourselves inside, it is better than living a wreckage outside. ”

Wei Tian agrees with Zhang Xiaoyu's words very much, everyone's situation is the same, it is nothing more than Zhang Xiaoyu's family is well-off, and he has capital to squander Zhang Xiaoyu, but he is different, so the results are naturally different.

"Big brother, this bio warehouse has been installed, look ......"

The staff who installed the biosilo were smiling.

"I see, I'll give you a good review when the time comes."

Zhang Xiaoyu said.

"Brother, you hurry into the game, I'll go first, I have to hurry up and upgrade."

With that, Zhang Xiaoyu patted Wei Tian on the shoulder, turned around and walked out of the room.
