Inside a university dorm on Blue Star.

Li Fei took off his helmet and shook his head in frustration.

His in-game ID was "Unleash the Dogs," and he had just been torn to shreds by Jackalmen.

He wouldn't be able to log back into the game until this time tomorrow.

"You died too?"

His two other roommates had logged out of the game a few minutes earlier. Seeing him take off his helmet, they both wore smiles of relief.

"Wuzui asked me to block the Jackalmen behind him while he ran off."

Li Fei set his helmet aside and jumped off the bed.

"You agreed to that? Does he think you're his dad?"

A Fish and Borrow Five Hundred Yuan From The Sky Again stared at him in disbelief.

When did this kid develop such a sacrificial spirit?

"Not exactly, but he promised to treat me to meals for a whole week starting next week."

Li Fei said smugly.

"Holy crap!"

"He's that generous?"

A Fish and Five Hundred Yuan looked envious upon hearing this.

Eating whatever they wanted for a week, even at the cafeteria, would cost at least a thousand or eight hundred yuan.

What a steal!

Why didn't this good thing happen to them?

As the three were talking, someone knocked loudly on their door from outside.

A Fish, who was sitting near the door, opened it to find Wang Ming from the next dorm.

In-game, he was known as "Immovable King."

"You all died?"

That was Wang Ming's first question after entering.

"Duh, with so many Jackalmen surrounding us, how could we not die?"

Li Fei shook his head.

"I strongly suspect this was a plot-driven death! The crappy developers saw our team was too strong and deliberately set it up!"

A Fish started spouting conspiracy theories.

Just as he finished speaking, he saw I Shoot You Innocent sitting up on the bed, looking dejected as he took off his helmet.

"Screw his grandma!"

Wuzui threw his helmet aside and said angrily.

"Haha, you died too?"

A Fish asked gleefully.

"Sigh, I was just about to escape when a wolf suddenly jumped out of the bushes and bit my neck. Before I could even resist, the connection was severed."

Wuzui sighed and lamented.

Twice dead, both times by a bite to the throat. Couldn't he die in a different way?

"Are you sure it was a wolf, not a Jackalman?"

A Fish asked curiously.

"Duh, do you think I can't tell the difference between a wolf and a Jackalman?"

Wuzui pouted.

"Never mind whether it was a wolf or a Jackalman, even if you didn't escape, you can't skip out on the week of meals you owe me!"

Li Fei quickly said.

Based on his understanding of Wuzui, if this kid died, he would most likely find an excuse to renege on the deal.

Hearing this, Wuzui's eyes darted around as he began to think of an excuse to get out of paying for the week's meals.

"What the heck, why aren't you guys in seclusion today?"

Just then, a few classmates entered their dorm, arm in arm, looking surprised.

These past few days, their dorm, 720, had been locked up tight every night, impossible to get into.

Today, the door was wide open?

What a rarity!

"What seclusion? We were playing a game, a 100% realism full-immersion game, you know?"

A Fish said with a look of disdain.

These ignorant guys!

"Ah ha ha ha..."

The few classmates who had just come in couldn't help but laugh.

"What 100% realistic virtual game, you're a university student, do you believe that yourself when you say such things? With the current technological level, this kind of thing is impossible!"

A classmate laughed.

This wasn't the first time the four guys from Dorm 720 had said such things to them, but how could they believe it?

They had also tried on the game helmets on their beds. When they put them on, their vision went black, and there was no game at all.

"It's real!"

Wang Ming, who had been silent beside them, suddenly said.

I Shoot You Innocent was among the first batch to enter the game. His three roommates were the second batch, and he was the third.

He had just managed to get one of the last closed beta slots.

If you can't find it by searching the book title, you can try searching for the author, maybe they just changed the name!

Before entering the game, he also completely disbelieved it.

A 100% realistic virtual game?

Only novels dared to write like that!

But after actually receiving the helmet and entering the game, he was deeply shocked.

There was only one way to describe it...

Awesome!

"Wang Ming, why are you fooling around with them too?"

A classmate laughed.

"What benefit do we get from fooling around with this?"

Wang Ming adjusted his glasses and said seriously.

Everyone had been joking around earlier, so Wang Ming's sudden seriousness caught the others off guard.

"I guarantee you, this game exists 100%! And as long as the servers are up, this game will eventually completely change the landscape of the game industry and become popular worldwide! Unless another game with the same technology appears, this game will be the overlord of the global gaming industry!"

He had 100% confidence in the prospects of this game.

It wasn't for any other reason than the extra ten hours or so he gained each night. This second life was enough to make him a legend and make it impossible for anyone who experienced this game to refuse it!

At first, he didn't believe the game official website when it said that players' real bodies would enter a deep sleep after entering the game.

Even if the neural connections entered the game, one still had to think and react to various things in the game. The brain couldn't possibly rest.

If the brain was still working, how could the body enter a deep sleep?

Insomnia would be more likely!

But when he logged into the game for the first time and played all night, then exited the game around 7 AM, the feeling of refreshedness was something he would never forget.

It was an unprecedented sense of comfort, as if both his body and brain had received the most thorough rest and reached their optimal state!

Although he didn't understand the principle behind it, he understood what it represented.

It meant that if you originally slept eight hours a day, you now had an extra eight hours of life!

Who could refuse such temptation?

"When this game becomes popular, as long as the equipment and items in the game can be traded freely, high-quality equipment will definitely be hyped to an astronomical price!"

"The official website said that the closed beta will not wipe progress. Being able to enter the game now is a huge advantage. The returns will definitely be higher than investing in any industry! I suggest you all make a reservation. The number of people who have reserved is not that high yet. If closed beta qualifications are released later, there's a high chance you'll be drawn."

"We classmates can form a guild in the game, if that function exists. As closed beta players, we can easily become T1, or at least T2 level players. When the game goes public and tens of thousands of players flood in, we can definitely gain huge profits."

"Perhaps, this game will completely change our lives!"

Wang Ming said seriously.

The university they attended was only a third-rate school in Xia Country. Unless their families were already wealthy and influential, it would be difficult for them to achieve great things after graduation.

Most likely, they would find an ordinary job or do some small business, and live a plain life.

But this game, in his opinion, was definitely an opportunity for them to turn their fortunes around!

At the very least, they would have a rare second life, a life far more exciting than the real world!

After he finished speaking, the entire dormitory fell into a brief silence.

Even the four from I Shoot You Innocent, who had entered the game earlier, although they thought the game was amazing, hadn't thought this deeply.

Recalling it now, what Wang Ming said made a lot of sense.

This game would indeed make their lives more exciting!

Whether in the game or in reality!

"Hearing you say that, I actually believe it a little! Send me the website, and I'll make a reservation as soon as I get back to the dorm!"

"Send it to me too. I'll say right now that I definitely don't believe in any 100% realistic virtual game. I just want to see what tricks you guys are up to!"

"Send it to me too!"

"+1!"

"+10086!"

Savage World.

Lin Feng, standing at the entrance of the cave, suddenly frowned.

In the system, he could see the location and status of every Player.

Just now, in the system, the status of all five Players in I Shoot You Innocent's squad was displayed as dead!

This unusual situation immediately caught his attention.

Out of the thirty Players, there were three squads out hunting: Da Qing's squad, After Three Rounds of Drinks' squad, and I Shoot You Innocent's squad.

The other Players were in the valley carrying out Logging and gathering quests.

Each of the three hunting squads had decent strength.

There weren't any particularly ferocious beasts near the valley. Even if I Shoot You Innocent's squad encountered a powerful beast, they shouldn't have been wiped out in just a few minutes.

Something special must have happened.

After a simple analysis, Lin Feng thought the most likely possibility was that the Jackalmen had returned!

And there were definitely more of them than last time.

Then he remembered that this morning, a Player had discovered a Jackalman corpse buried in the Outer Valley had been dug up.

He hadn't paid much attention to it at first, thinking some beast had broken into the Outer Valley at night and dug up a Jackalman corpse, following the scent of blood.

After all, some of the pits the Players dug when burying those Jackalmen weren't very deep.

Thinking about it now, it was very likely that Jackalman scouts had secretly infiltrated the valley without him noticing.

Lin Feng thought for a moment and issued a quest through the system.

All Players, bring your weapons and gather at the entrance of the Outer Valley, prepare for battle!

Instantly, all online Players received the quest update notification.

If you can't find the book by searching the title, you can try searching for the author. Maybe they just changed their name!
