It’s already autumn but the temperature remained high, and the weather was still hot.
X city, inside a cheap apartment.
Su Jin sat up abruptly from the sofa, looking around blankly.
This place looked both strange and familiar.
“This is…”
He was lost for a while, then suddenly said in disbelief, “This is the place I lived ten years ago?”
Su Jin hurriedly called out his personal terminal and looked at the time.
“September 15th, 2200. 11:30.”
Su Jin’s pupils contracted rapidly, and his heart beat violently!
Year 2200?
He actually went back to ten years ago!
It was the year he just graduated from university.
He took an internship job offered by the federal government.
Not far from his work place, he rented this apartment and stayed here for five to six years.
“Wait! September 15th? !”
Wasn’t it the day New World released its beta?
Su Jin hurriedly opened his personal terminal to check the news.
He was right!
The advertisements for the groundbreaking online game New World were everywhere. Everyone was talking about it online.
The game was released by a mysterious company called Otherworld.
The moment it was released, it became a big hit.
Because people discovered that even during this closed beta stage, everything in the game could be brought into the real world!
Such as the attributes, skills, inventory, and so on that the players obtained in the game.
The whole world went crazy!
Everyone wanted to find out more about this Otherworld company.
However, it was as if Otherworld suddenly appeared in this world out of thin air. No one even knew where the company was and there was no game publisher.
You couldn’t find a more mysterious company.
Even though the beta test had only lasted for a week.
Those who were lucky enough to be chosen to participate in the test had benefited from it so much that they made everyone else envy them.
Some players who had learned magic spells in the game could release fireballs that were as big as cannonballs in real life!
Players who had become swordsmen in the game had actually mastered swordsmanship in real life. With a casual slash, they could cut through steel plates that were as thick as a thumb!
Someone who had become a summoner in the game could summon an elephant-like wild boar in real life; its skin was so thick that even the bullet couldn’t pierce thought it.
..
Among these lucky players, some of them were rich.
Like in real world, they wanted to be one step ahead of others and more superior.
Therefore, these people looked for the in-game purchase option to recharge, and hope money would help them become more powerful.
However, New World did not offer the recharge option, nor did it have an online store.
To recharge, which was common in other online games, became something they could only dream of in New World.
This was a game changer!
Players could obtain things from the game and bring them to real world, but not vice versa.
This meant everyone had the same starting point in New World.
And those with great power and had dominated in the game world also ended up controlling the real world!
They would be respected and worshipped by tens of thousands of people!
At 12 o’clock today, the door to the “New World” would open on time!
It would be a historical moment for the whole world.
“It will start in half an hour.” Su Jin checked the time.
This epoch-making online game would become so popular that people from all over the world would play it.
Su Jin wouldn’t miss it either.
He had already ordered a game cabin for himself.
In his last life, Su Jin was a talented player. After he entered the game, he seized several opportunities and became very skilled.
