In just a few days without logging into the Game Space, the Game Space underwent a dramatic Changes.
First, the Game Plaza was transformed into a giant sci-fi city.
The Game Plaza has been renamed the City of Myriad Worlds.
Players can spend points to buy or rent their own homes in the City of Myriad Worlds.
They can live in the City of Myriad Worlds forever.
Secondly, the game has added many new features.
For example, there Chat Channel and social features where players can chat with each other using their player IDs, add each other as friends, team up for games, or trade items remotely.
Third, many new games have been added. In addition to Werewolf, Who Is the Undercover, Red and Black Cards, and Murder Mystery, a large number of virtual games such as Live-Action CS, Live-Action Exhilarating Battlefield, and Live-Action King of Pesticides have also been added.
But these virtual games aren't something you can just play whenever you want.
Players need to purchase game cards to access these virtual games.
Different games have different in-game stores where you can purchase corresponding in-game items to enhance your Combat.
As long as you have enough points, you can easily Sweep the game even if you're cheating.
Furthermore, each game requires the purchase of a game card.
However, in this type of competitive game, only the winning side receives points; the losing side gets nothing.
The Game Space has clearly learned to exploit players' points, and it's doing it very ruthlessly.
Take Live-Action CS games as an example. A game card costs Wu Bai points, and each game has 20 players on each side.
Only the winning side can receive between 500 and 1000 points.
After a game, the Game Space earns 20,000 points, but at most, all 20,000 points are awarded to the winning side.
In other words, the Game Space will never lose points.
The Game Space has already canceled ten servers, and the ten servers have been merged into one.
Therefore, the number of players in the City of Myriad Worlds is already unimaginably large.
Players were everywhere, some familiar, some unfamiliar, some from ancient times, some from modern times, some in mechs, some in battle armor, all sorts of flashy characters.
[Player 830524-1 is requesting to speak with you, do you accept?]
[Accept/Reject]
Just as Ling Yi was strolling around the City of Myriad Worlds, a game notification appeared before his eyes.
Ling Yi accepted without hesitation.
The next moment, a small video window appeared in the upper right corner of Ling Yi's vision.
The person in the picture is Huang Rong.
" Ling Yi, you're finally online!" Huang Rong could be clearly relieved.
Something happened in my Minecraft recently, which delayed me for a few days!
"Is it serious?" Huang Rong asked.
"Well..."
How should I answer this? To say it's serious, it is quite serious. Well, using "serious" doesn't seem quite right; "major" would be a better word.
Getting married is a major life event, isn't it?
Ling Yi is over sixty years old across his two lifetimes, and this is his first marriage.
Although the process was a bit far-fetched and rushed, I'm now a man with a wife.
Thinking of all this, a smile unconsciously appeared on Ling Yi's lips.
"Looks like something good happened on Brother Ling Yi's end? I'll give you an address, come over there. Qin Feng, Lü Shouyi, Conan are all there."
As Huang Rong spoke, she waved her hand, and the next moment, a game notification appeared in front of Ling Yi.
[Player 830524-1 has posted a location Sharing for you. Do you accept?][Accept/Decline]
After clicking "Accept," a new message will appear again.
[Does player 230922 want to spend 1 point to activate the navigation function?][Yes/No]
Ling Yi's face darkened. Had the Game Space gone bad? They were even trying to cheat people out of this small amount of points?
One point can buy a Manchu Han Imperial Feast! Thinking about it that way, this Game Space seems a bit shady!
Ling Yi directly chose "no".
The location is already set, and the distance isn't far, so there's no need for navigation.
"I'm coming right now, let's talk again when we meet!"
Okay, see you in a bit!
After ending the call, Ling Yi set off for his destination using the Sharing location.
It was indeed very close; we arrived after just two blocks.
If I spend that 1 point, I'll definitely be a Big Head.
What comes into view is a very ordinary modern residential community.
There's a guard tower and security guards at the entrance, and one of them is even an acquaintance.
" Bai Xiaofei?" Ling Yi asked in surprise, "What are you doing here working as a security guard?"
"Huh? You're Big Shot Ling Yi?" Bai Xiaofei was pleasantly surprised to see Ling Yi.
"You..." Ling Yi pointed at Bai Xiaofei's security guard uniform, looking very curious.
"Ahem, just trying to earn some points!" Bai Xiaofei said awkwardly, scratching his head.
Before Ling Yi could say anything, Bai Xiaofei said with a mournful face, " Big Shot, please carry me! I've had such a miserable few days, being constantly criticized and unable to play the game!"
"Brother Ling Yi, ignore him. Everyone in the Game Space knows this guy is a jinx!" At this moment, a familiar voice rang out from ahead.
The person who arrived was none other than Huang Rong.
At this moment, Huang Rong showed absolutely no Shadow of an ancient person; she wore a blue and white T-shirt, white jeans, and white sneakers.
She had long hair, wore large sunglasses, and carried a small white bag around her waist.
She was radiant and glowing.
Cool, stylish, and beautiful!
"Miss Rong'er, you 'Changes so much in just a few days!"
"Is it pretty?" Huang Rong asked, turning around in a circle.
"Beautiful!" Ling Yi exclaimed sincerely.
"Gulp!" Bai Xiaofei swallowed hard, his eyes widening in surprise.
But the next moment, Huang Rong raised one leg and kicked Bai Xiaofei hard in the shoulder, sending him flying several meters away.
It finally stopped after crashing into a tree.
Ling Yi: "..."
When did Huang Rong become so violent?
"If you look again, I'll gouge your eyes out!" Huang Rong said, hands on her hips.
Bai Xiaofei stood up as if nothing had happened, his face still bearing the marks of tears, head bowed, looking utterly dejected.
"Don't worry, he'll be fine. After he became a security guard, the Game Space unleashed some of his power. With his body's regenerative abilities, as long as his head doesn't fall off, he can recover quickly."
So that's how it is. It seems the security guards of this City of Myriad Worlds do have some privileges.
"Ignore him, let's go!"
As Huang Rong spoke, she took Ling Yi's arm and led him into the residential area.
Bai Xiaofei looked on with envy. They were both human, yet the difference was just too great!
"Let me tell you, Bai Xiaofei is now a notorious jinx in the Game Space, a real unlucky guy. Nobody wants to play games with him anymore."
Huang Rong chattered on and on.
"How so?" Ling Yi asked curiously.
"He's played nearly a hundred games these past few days, and hasn't won a single one!"
"That's really exaggerated?"
"Yeah, it's one thing for him to fail, but the real problem is that he drags down the people in his group. Now, in any game room with Bai Xiaofei, players will quit without even thinking."
"He had no choice but to apply for a job as a security guard in the residential compound, hoping to earn 10 points every day."
Ling Yi glanced back at Bai Xiaofei and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Sorry, I just couldn't help it!"
Bai Xiaofei waved his hand dismissively, clearly used to it.
Soon, Huang Rong led Ling Yi to a high-rise building.
This high-rise building has a full twenty floors, and it's almost indistinguishable from a high-rise residential building in the real world.
After taking the elevator to the 12th floor, Huang Rong took out a Key and opened the door to room 1203.
"I just bought this house yesterday. It's 120 square meters, with three bedrooms, two living rooms, one kitchen, and one bathroom."
Is Huang Rong planning to live permanently in the Game Space?
However, Ling Yi didn't ask that question.
If something hadn't happened in the Legend of the Condor Heroes World, Huang Rong probably wouldn't have bought a house in the City of Myriad Worlds, right?
After all, the Legend of the Condor Heroes World was Huang Rong's true home.
The people who were chatting on the sofa all stood up when they saw Ling Yi.
" Ling Yi, long time no see!" Qin Feng said with a smile.
" Big Shot, without you here, we only get a hundred or so points a day at most, it's terrible!" Ma Bangde joked.
"Haha, you rascal, you disappeared for five days straight! Do you know how we survived those five days? This Game Space is such a rip-off!" Lü Shouyi immediately gave Ling Yi a hug.
I felt it!
Thinking back to the 1-point navigation fee, Ling Yi nodded. The person behind this Game Space Game Space has probably finally grasped its essence, right?
"By the way, what have you been doing for the past five days? Did something happen?" Conan asked.
"Hehe!" Ling Yi chuckled sheepishly.
"Judging from that expression, it must be good news!" Ma Bangde said.
"Either I'll get rich or I'll get married!" Ko Chun laughed.
"Yes, I'm married!" Ling Yi didn't hide anything.
As soon as he said that, the room fell silent for a few seconds, and everyone involuntarily glanced at Huang Rong.
Ling Yi was somewhat confused; why did the atmosphere suddenly become so strange?
That's why they say Ling Yi is as straight as steel!
In the real world, if it weren't for a series of unforeseen circumstances, this guy would probably still be single for another sixty years.
"Congratulations! But you're really not being fair, getting married is such a big deal and you didn't even tell us." Lü Shouyi was the first to react.
Others also offered their congratulations.
Ling Yi responded to each of their questions.
Soon, the group started talking about the Changes in the Game Space over the past few days.
"You absolutely can't touch these new games; anyone who plays them will get ripped off!" Qin Feng said.
"Werewolf, the Who Is the Undercover, the Red and Black Cards —basically nothing Changes. The rules have become increasingly refined, and bugs are now rare."
"Murder mystery games are becoming increasingly grand in scale and plot-driven, leaning more towards storytelling, but less and less about gameplay," Conan said, shaking his head.
Ling Yi Ling Yi nodded. He had already felt this during the last Escape from Clone Island: deliberately focusing on the plot and story would take away the fun of the game.
"Fortunately, these games are relatively fair. Although murder mystery games can use points, there is a limit, so it's not too unbalanced and still playable."
"But the new live-action virtual reality game is a total rip-off. You need points to buy game cards, you need points to buy in-game items, and the worst part is that only the winning side gets the points reward."
The more they said that, the more curious Ling Yi became about the new game.
He was curious to see just how much of a rip-off this new game was.
Moreover, he hadn't played games for several days, so he was quite excited now.
"I'll book a room, play a murder mystery game first, and then see just how much of a rip-off this new game really is!"
Ling Yi went directly into the private game room he had created with 500 points and then sent invitations to everyone.
