Chapter 2 Getting Started in the Game
Li Xiangwei sat on the sofa and took out his computer to connect to the Internet cable, and Lin Yimo sat next to him curiously and looked at him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
I saw him open the search engine and type in the words "second life", full of news reports and player discussions, but he didn't care about these, and clicked on the official website.
A video appeared in the middle of the web page, he clicked on it curiously, and an ethereal and vicissitudes of voice said: "Have you heard the story of Second Life? Don't doubt your eyes, the next thing will change your perception of the world......" slowly ended with the echo of the sound, and a clip of the game's production process and several gameplay effects were revealed.
Li Xiangwei stared at the screen, at this time the progress bar of the video was about to end, he was stunned, he never imagined that the technology of the game has reached this level now, the realistic picture and the strong battle scenes made his blood boil, and he even had an idea that if he didn't play this game, it would be a huge regret for his life.
At the end of the video, a few big words appeared in the screen, "Countdown to 30 days, let's witness the birth of a new era together." ”
What to give up the game, what to make up your mind, everything is broken at this moment, there is only one thought in his mind, he must play this game.
Lin Yimo also opened her mouth wide in surprise, she patted Li Xiangwei beside her, and said in shock: "Xiangwei, do you say that the scenes in this video are true?" ”
"I don't know very well, don't think about it so much now, and when the game is opened, we'll know if it's true or not."
Lee Sang-ho regained his composure, and his years of gaming experience had allowed him to develop a calm personality at all times, and he flipped through the official website casually and saw the pre-order interface.
[The second life of the pinnacle of the era, a new way of game operation, a realistic game environment, what are you waiting for? 】
This row of large letters is prominently placed at the top of the page, and below is the appearance of the game pod and the pre-order price.
Li Xiangwei didn't expect that such a high-end and high-grade game cabin would only sell for a few thousand yuan, which is simply a pie-in-the-sky thing.
Lin Yimo saw the price, and hurriedly encouraged him to pre-order two game cabins, "Xiangwei!" Hurry up and buy it! Buy it now! ”
In the continuous urging, Li Xiangwei chose 2 in the purchase quantity, clicked to confirm the pre-order, and scanned the code to complete the payment.
[Congratulations on your purchase of the Second Life Game Pod, the product will be delivered to your home within five days before the game opens, and there will be professionals to help you complete the installation of the equipment, please be patient.] 】
The days of waiting are always long, in this short month, Li Xiangwei continued to participate in various job fairs, interviews, and finally found a good job, the workload is relatively small, the salary is not bad, can maintain a well-off life for two people, and there is surplus money mailed home.
Lin Yimo also works as an online model in a high-end clothing store because of her excellent appearance and temperament, and occasionally goes to take pictures of new clothes, and also has a considerable income. The owner Sister Lin is a middle-aged woman, but it is difficult to judge her age from her appearance, she is very good at taking care of her skin, she likes Lin Yimo very much, she always shares some skin care tips with her in her spare time, and never lets her take some more revealing photos, so Li Xiangwei and Lin Yimo are very grateful to Sister Lin, and they will always go to the store when they have time.
The days passed, and with 3 days left in the countdown, the two game pods were finally delivered to their small apartment.
This is a spherical cabin with adjustable seats, and the material of the seats is somewhat similar to a sofa, which is very soft and comfortable for people to sit in the cabin.
With the help of professionals, the two game pods took half a day to install, and the required power supply, network cables and special connection devices were connected, everything was ready, only the east wind was owed, and now the game will be open in three days.
After finishing the work, the professional left the phone and left, Li Xiangwei and Lin Yimo collapsed on the sofa tiredly, looking at the two cabins in a daze.
"I'm so tired, what are we going to do in a while?" Lin Yimo said lazily.
"It's only 6 o'clock, let's go eat first, and then go to Sister Lin's for a walk." Lee Sang-hyun said listlessly like a puddle of mud.
As soon as she heard that she was going to Sister Lin, Lin Yimo instantly jumped up from the sofa like a chicken blood, picked up Mr. Mud next to her, and went out with a pull.
After the two of them finished eating, they went to the clothing store to have a look, and now the business was not busy, so Sister Lin handed over the work to the other clerks, and came to the rest area to chat with the two people.
Two hours passed, and the two of them were ready to go home, Sister Lin took a small gift for the two of them, and went to do business.
Countdown 2 days, countdown 1 day, countdown 0 days.
The day was Saturday, the day was just dawning, but the small apartment was already lively, the two of them got up early, exercised for a while, took a shower, had a meal, and then prepared to enter the game cabin to feel the magic of this god-canned game.
Lee Sang-ho sits in the game cabin and closes the hatch, the hatch is transparent, and the player can hear the knocking sound of the hatch while playing, so it will not completely isolate people from reality.
He took a deep breath and pressed the start button at hand, only to feel that it was dark in front of him, and it was quiet all around, and he couldn't even hear his own breathing, as if it was a lifeless space.
After about three seconds, a strong light suddenly appeared in front of him, Li Xiangwei reflexively closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, he found that in a huge enclosed space, surrounded by dense people, everyone looked around blankly, he knew that these were players like him.
Suddenly, there was a violent shock, and he barely managed to control his balance so that he would not fall to the ground, and many people around him had already fallen.
"Damn, what kind of game is this, it hurts so much to fall on the ground!"
"yes, how is this different from other games, isn't it normal to come up to the novice area? What the hell is this? ”
"Say it hurts buddy, this game can adjust the pain, and the call out setting interface can be modified."
After this shock, the players around them were no longer restrained, and they began to discuss with the people around them.
At this point, one player shouted, "Look ahead, everyone!" ”
Li Xiangwei turned his head sharply, looked ahead, and saw a huge metal door slowly opening, and the vibration just now should have been caused when the door left the ground.
[Welcome to the second life, this is the underground bomb shelter of country Z, please register at the guide and take the underground light rail to the next target point in an orderly manner. 】
The sound from the loudspeakers began to play over and over again, and the players consciously lined up to register and board the light rail.
Li Xiangwei roughly estimated that the light rail is about 2 minutes a trip, which can carry 500 passengers each time, and the time in the game is synchronized with the outside time, about an hour has passed, and finally it is Li Xiangwei's turn, he walked to the guide's side, and the guide picked up the scanner and waved it in front of his eyes.
[Drop, the iris scan is successful, and the game binding is complete.] 】
"Next." The guide looked behind Lee Sang-yun without a trace of emotion and said, and motioned for him to get on the light rail.
The glass of the light rail is specially made, stronger than the bulletproof glass in reality, and all the players are looking at the outside of the light rail curiously, but except for the wall is dirt, and soon everyone is bored sitting in their seats in a daze.
A beautiful woman in uniform appeared in Li Xiangwei's carriage, she glanced around everyone present and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am Feng Ziyun, the crew member of the underground light rail, and I will introduce you to the background of this world...... and then she began to narrate.
Three months ago, the detection system of the United Nations Space Station suddenly discovered that a huge meteorite was crashing into the earth at a very fast speed, and all countries in the world mobilized the strongest missile force to intercept the meteorite in the air, and gradually evacuated the people to underground air-raid shelters, but this meteorite was amazingly large, and after several rounds of bombing, there were still some pieces falling in different parts of the world, but the relative damage caused was relatively small, just when the heads of state thought that the matter was over, more terrifying things happened.
No one thought that these fragments contained a mysterious energy that spread to every corner of the world with the air, and in just a few days, there were frequent mutant infections around the world, with a mortality rate of up to 100%, and the United Nations immediately convened an emergency meeting to force the launch of the "Second Life" plan and raise the crisis coefficient to SSS.
The second life is to inject the soldier with genetically strengthening drugs, which can permanently improve physical fitness and brain thinking, and then after systematic professional training, it can fight against mutated lifeforms and form a powerful army of human beings.
Due to the limited number of soldiers in each country, and the fact that most of them fight mutants on the ground, countries have passed decrees allowing the recruitment of people in underground bomb shelters to participate in the voluntary participation program experiments, and each player is a volunteer to participate in the "Second Life" experiment.
After listening to this series of introductions, BornEvil immediately flashed in his mind, is this a real experience of Resident Evil?
As he was thinking, the light rail shook violently, startling all the players, and some of the timid female players screamed.
Feng Ziyun looked at the situation outside the window and immediately comforted everyone present: "Don't be afraid, this is just a normal bump, due to the occurrence of this crisis, many places have been damaged to varying degrees, and our security level is the highest, nothing will happen." ”
Li Xiangwei shook his head, it seemed that he had always been frightened by the shock since entering the game, it seemed that the degree of simulation was really too high, he calmed down and looked out the window silently.
At this time, the light rail has driven out of the ground, he can clearly see the barrenness and dilapidation outside, and his heart is tight, if one day our real world becomes like this, what will it be.
Suddenly, he felt as if something black was moving in the distance, and it was fast.
