In February 2103 AD, the Dream No. 4 game warehouse had entered thousands of households, announcing that the era of holographic games was coming.
However, there is a group of people who have experienced holographic games early, but their experience is not good, and they even want to escape but cannot.
This group of people are the invitees selected by Zhong Shanze.
At this time, Ge Zhaodu was experiencing "Hongmeng Shi: Three Tribes vs. Ancient Junshi" in Dream No. 4, but Ling Mengyu, a group of transcendent invitees, also wanted to experience this game in another form.
"Although that existence did not deceive us, it still constituted fraud," Suo Jian said dejectedly to his companions in the white space, "We can only act according to his will."
"That existence will indeed no longer force us," Ling Mengyu also felt the same, "but he used emptiness and loneliness to torture us, forcing us to make that choice."
These past few months have driven Ling Mengyu crazy with boredom. Except for the first few days, which were indeed very pleasant, after that there was endless loneliness.
Sometimes when she dreams back in the middle of the night, Ling Mengyu suddenly finds herself missing the days when she was an invitee, the tension that could lead to death if she is not careful, the excitement of being suspicious of other human beings, and speculating on the patterns of the actions of fierce ghosts. That time again An adventure.
The so-called invitees refer to the term Zhong Shanze uses to refer to the souls of dead people after he pulls them into the virtual world from the real world.
This group of invitees will experience one fierce ghost experience after another in the virtual world. If they successfully pass the final battle, they can become transcendent invitees.
According to Zhong Shanze's original agreement with this group of people, after becoming a transcendent invitee, he would no longer be troubled by existences such as fierce ghosts.
At that time, almost all the invitees thought it meant they could return to the real world, but it turned out not to be the case. It can be said that they were tricked by Zhong Shanze.
Of course, as Suo Jian said, Zhong Shanze did not deceive them, but only constituted fraud through verbal traps.
Suo Jian and Ling Mengyu are indeed no longer disturbed by fierce ghosts at this time. They live in a carefree space. There are endless kinds of food and all kinds of entertainment that they can't think of. In the gym Exercises ranging from mountaintop bungee jumping to space odyssey are available.
But this space cannot solve one problem, which is boredom and emptiness, the kind of boredom and emptiness that almost penetrates into the bone marrow.
Perhaps they would relax here in the early days, but after staying for a long time, Suo Jian and the others were made quite uncomfortable by boredom and emptiness.
After all, although this space where the detached invitees are located can satisfy many of the owner's pursuits, it cannot satisfy only one social interaction, and none of them are lonely people, which is very uncomfortable.
When they first entered this transcendent space, Zhong Shanze gave them an option to continue participating in the missions he posted and experience exciting adventures.
The two of them had just arrived here at that time, and they were filled with the joy of never having to see fierce ghosts again, so no one paid attention to this option.
However, after such a long time, in real world time, from October last year to February this year, they finally started to get tired of it, so they turned their attention to this option.
At this time, there are already four luxury houses in the transcendent space. In addition to Suo Jian and Ling Mengyu, two more people have transcended within a few months.
Although the number of people can be said to have doubled compared to the original number, the number of people is still pitifully small, so after a consensus of several people, they decided to accept the mission of the mysterious master again.
Perhaps among the four detached invitees, only the broad and fat one didn't care about this. He was originally a homebody in the real world and was used to loneliness and isolation.
It just so happens that this world has endless games and anime to watch, and he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing. This fat guy really feels like he's back home. How can he complain like Aya Mengyu and others?
But don't look at this fat guy's current decadence. When he was still an invitee, he was really a fat mass on his body, but his agility made others gasp in surprise.
So now that there are only 4 transcendent invitees, this fat guy can actually be one of them and can pass the test of the final battle.
But the only one like Fat Brother was himself, and the other three couldn't bear it, so they gathered together at this moment and made a decision to contact that great being again to complete the task assigned by him.
"Anyway, I have already enjoyed the things I should enjoy these days. I think people can't live like this forever, right?"
The other two people deeply agreed with Suo Jian's words, so the three of them pressed the OK button one after another, which meant that they agreed to continue the mission.
After pressing the confirmation button, they teleported away from this space, but their destination was not the familiar building, but floating in a gorgeous starry sky.
There was a light ball emitting soft light in the center of the starry sky, spinning quietly in front of the three people, and there were some words on the light ball.
Mission: Survive in the prehistoric world. The longer you survive, the more points you get. Points can be exchanged for special abilities for the user.
When Suo Jian and the other three read the fonts on the light sphere, a new paragraph of text covered the old text, and they saw that this text read:
Considering the dangers of the prehistoric world, invitees can be provided with activation point loans to allow the invitees to redeem the necessary abilities to survive in the prehistoric world.
Whether it was Suo Jian or Ling Mengyu, when they heard this sentence, their hearts suddenly felt like ten thousand grass and mud horses galloping past.
When many online games start, the characters will be given some initial points as a gift. They are familiar with these, but why are the initial points given here in the form of a loan?
To a certain extent, the initial impact a person receives will really last until later. Anyway, Zhong Shanze feels that this aspect of his life is the same as his original one.
I remember that in the main god space where I was, the main god could force new points to be exchanged for old points. The savings of countless people who had not exchanged points were almost wasted. This operation still remains fresh in Zhong Shanze's memory to this day.
However, although using loans to give initial points is a wasteful method, after the businessmen looked at the loan conditions, objectively speaking, it is relatively favorable and convenient for the people, and it is not particularly difficult to repay it, but this cannot change their feeling of wastefulness. .
So after a period of trial and error, the three accepted the initial point loan and started their career as invitees again, and this time they went to a more dangerous prehistoric world... probably.
