———— "Dead Gun".

When this term reached Luo Zhen's ears, Luo Zhen frowned.

"I don't think you know."

Seijiro Kikuoka didn't know if he understood Luo Zhen's thoughts, and after hearing Luo Zhen's silence, he immediately spoke up.

"Do you know Gun Gale Online?"

This game, Luo Zhen has heard of it.

No, it should be said that as long as you play VR games or follow VR games, you will have heard of this game more or less, right?

The reason is simple.

"It's the most popular VR game out there, and it's also the biggest gunfight-type game out there."

Luo Zhen gave the information of this game.

Like today's games, it's a virtual reality game created with The Seed, or ———— GGO for short.

GGO's world view is not regarded as a mainstream fantasy genre, but a relatively rare futuristic technology class, and the game is set on the earth where civilization has been destroyed by the Great War, and humans have left this planet for a time, and they don't return again until hundreds of years later, and players are the humans who have returned to Earth.

And in the huge civilization that collapsed in the past war, there are countless automaton and genetically modified monsters among the various urban ruins.

Players venture out on such a ruined land, seeking all kinds of treasures left over from past civilizations.

This is the game world of GGO.

In terms of world view, this game is relatively decent.

However, it's truly the most popular virtual reality game.

Because, it is the only game among all VRMMOs that can convert in-game currency into real money.

Players will be able to convert the money they earn from the game into digital money and use it to make payments in the real world.

With such a mechanic, it is natural that all kinds of people who want to make money in the game will devote themselves to the game and become obsessed with it at all costs.

For this reason, the game called GGO is also the only game with professional players.

They consider gaming as their profession and devote themselves to GGO almost all year round, exchanging the money they earn into cash to support their lives and even their families.

It is said that the really top professional gamers can earn a regular income every month in GGO, although it is only 200,000 to 300,000 yen, but it is enough to live an ordinary life, and occasionally there will be people who get quite rare items, and if you auction them off in the game, you can get tens of thousands of yen or hundreds of thousands of yen at a time.

With this kind of good thing, players naturally dive into it one by one.

You can play games and make money, the best of both worlds, making the atmosphere inside the whole game look very lively.

Of course, the operator also wants to make money, and it will not be in vain to just pay, and players who choose to play GGO not only need to pay an online fee of 3,000 yen per month, but it is also difficult for ordinary players to earn a large amount of money.

Even the top professional gamers can only earn 200,000 or 300,000 yen a month, but the average gamer can earn 1,000 yen a month, which is already very good.

Even so, there are still many people who fantasize about getting rich overnight in an imaginary world.

Therefore, the time and enthusiasm that players in GGO pour into the game is incomparable to that of players in other games, and the various disputes in it are also cruel, and they encourage PK more than ALO, which is very brutal.

Since Seijiro Kikuoka mentioned this game, the eighth problem lies in this game.

Sure enough...

"In GGO, there was a player of a very high level who won the strongest elimination tournament held in October and was invited by MMO Trends to be interviewed."

Seijiro Kikuoka said.

The so-called "MMO Trend" refers to an online TV show that can be watched not only from real-world TV or the Internet, but also from inside the game, and is often broadcast by countless hotels and hotels in the VRMMO world, and is highly regarded by players.

In particular, "Winner of the Week", a popular section of "MMO Trends", invites high-level players from each game to come and interview every week, so many players are proud to be on this show.

Luo Zhen had also been invited several times before, but he rejected them all.

The player mentioned by Seijiro Kikuoka has been on this show.

"The other party is the player who won the championship in GGO's strongest knockout tournament held last month, 'The Bullet of Bullets (BoB)", but suddenly disconnected from the show and interrupted the show."

Seijiro Kikuoka's tone became heavy.

"Last month, in an apartment in Nakano-ku, Tokyo, the landlord found a man dead inside, wearing 'AmuSphere' on his head and in a connected state."

Hearing this, Luo Zhen's eyes narrowed.

This is not a strange thing.

During the year, it was not uncommon for a fully stealthy player to be found dead at home wearing AmuSphere.

Some of them die suddenly because of too long a game time, and some of them have a false sense of satiety because they have been eating imaginary food in the game, and as a result, they forget to eat, or do not eat in the real world, which has a bad effect on the body, malnutrition, and finally dies at home.

With that in mind, this shouldn't be something to be particularly aware of.

But...

"This person is the player I just mentioned." Seijiro Kikuoka said: "He suddenly had an accident in the show, and he died directly in reality, and some players mentioned him in the blog, saying that when he had an accident, a very strange thing happened in GGO. ”

What's the matter?

"In the hotel of SBC Gloken, the capital of the GGO world, there is a player who yells at the dead who appears on the show with words like "accept sanctions" and "go die", and then shoots bullets at the screen, and the other party really has an accident and dies directly."

Seijiro Kikuoka said something that made people feel a little creepy in calm words.

"In addition, there was a similar case that happened ten days ago, somewhere in Omiya Ward, Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture, a body was found from a two-story apartment, the other party was also wearing 'AmuSphere' and died on the spot, and he was also a top player of GGO, and before he died, it seemed that he was attending a guild's assembly in the central square of Groken City, and when he was talking on the podium, the player who broke into the assembly suddenly shot him, and then he suddenly broke the line."

Hearing this, Luo Zhen probably understood what Seijiro Kikuoka was going to say.

"It's the same person who attacked these two people in GGO, right?"

Luo Zhen was so sure.

"That's right."

Seijiro Kikuoka spoke calmly.

"And he put his name, or nickname, on both occasions."

That name or nickname is...

"That's what the other side called ———— 'Dead Gun'."
