NOVEL NEXT Chapter 13
Chapter 13
The two of them chatted for a while before Lin Chen said that he was going to sleep.
But Liu Mengyao still felt blissful.
She couldn’t sleep.
Hence, she dragged Bai Shuyi along to chat. She even told her about how Lin Chen had sold his house for her dream.
To ordinary people, selling a house to play a games was quite insane.
What’s more, this was a game that was about to be offline forever!
However, for a girl who was not short of money, Lin Chen’s actions were undoubtedly very romantic.
There was the smell of true love everywhere.
Even Bai Shuyi, who had always been indifferent to men, could not help but say, “After finding such a good boyfriend, Yaoyao, you won’t need me anymore, right?”
It tasted a little sour.
After ending the conversation with Liu Mengyao, Bai Shuyi immediately opened a chat box.
The other party’s name was written with just the word: Guild Leader!
[Delicate Little Bird: Guild Leader, I’ve found out that Forest Dawn doesn’t know any inside information. The reason why he continues to invest in the game is because of his girlfriend in the game. My good sister can’t bear to part with this game, so in the last period of time, she wants to travel everywhere in the game.]
[Xuemo: That’s all? I think he spent a lot of money on that mythical Vermillion Bird today. Didn’t Forest Dawn sell his house]?
[Delicate Little Bird: That’s right! He sold the house to become stronger in the game so that he could bring my sister to any corner of the game. He even brought her to clear the most difficult dungeon.]
[Snow Foam: I didn’t expect him to be such a romantic guy. I thought there was some inside story behind him selling his house to invest in this game that was about to stop!]
[Delicate Little Bird: I haven’t found anything yet… How about this? Anyway, I’m already living in the same house as him. If there’s any news, I’ll tell you at any time.]
[Snow Foam: It’s been hard on you, Shuyi. It’s best to get more information from him. Tell me if there’s any news!]
[Delicate Little Bird: Okay, I’ll go to sleep first.]
Bai Shuyi turned off her phone.
She did not think too much about it. Besides, she was a little tired after driving for a few hours alone, so she went straight to sleep.
When she woke up, it was eight in the morning.
She had already heard movement in the living room. As expected, she found Lin Chen eating breakfast the moment she stepped out of the door.
“You’re awake. Want some?”
Lin Chen pushed a breakfast to the seat opposite him.
“I’ll wash up first,” Bai Shuyi said and went into the bathroom.
Meanwhile, Lin Chen was browsing New World’s official website on his tablet.
According to his memory, the announcement announcing the death of New World in the morning should have been made at this time.
As expected, as soon as Lin Chen logged into the official website, he saw an announcement that occupied the entire page.
[It’s a pity to tell everyone that the server, the Cosmic Stone, which carries New World’s online game, is at the end of its rope. After the last bit of energy is exhausted, New World will leave us forever! As everyone knows, New World’s online game is not actually developed by us. Instead, it’s a strange stone discovered by our research team in space. It contains this peerless online game masterpiece.]
[Over the years, our company has invested nearly 100 billion. Our researchers have worked hard for 20 years and put in a lot of effort, but in the end, they still couldn’t crack the secret of the Cosmic Stone!]
[I have to say, this is a huge regret!]
[Therefore, we don’t have any ability to compensate or help any player!]
[The only thing we can do is to focus our remaining research power on imitating and developing Cosmic Stones. In the shortest time possible, we can develop a New World online game that completely belongs to our Blue Planet and repay everyone!]
[I hope everyone can understand us and our scientific research team. Currently, our scientific research team has basically conquered the basic technology of holographic simulation. It is estimated that within three years, we will break through another major technology and strive to make the New World online game return within five years!]
The above was the announcement made at eight in the morning on New World’s official website.
Yes, there was no compensation!
As for the reason, the company of New World also gave it.
For the past 20 years, they had been constantly researching the Cosmic Stone. This stone from outer space had cost them a huge sum of money to research and maintain it. They had invested more than 100 billion!
Therefore, even though New World was about to be suspended, they could not compensate the players who had spent money in the game.
This was undoubtedly an announcement of the “death penalty” for the New World online game!
Previously, there were some players who were hoping for a fluke and even joined forces to pressure New World to compensate them. However, when this announcement was made, it was equivalent to telling everyone that their accounts and the props and equipment in the game were completely worthless!
The official website blew up!
The forum was also in an uproar!
Social media was even more explosive!
Many people were clamoring and denouncing the New World online game company.
All sorts of insulting posts were also flying everywhere!
However, all of this was useless.
Many people also expressed that today was their last time logging into New World. The purpose of logging in was not nostalgia, nor was it to continue playing, but… to delete their accounts!
The Internet was rioting.
However, to Lin Chen, this was undoubtedly the best time to buy game items, equipment, gold coins, materials, and other items!
Lin Chen immediately contacted Zhang Chunlin and called him directly. “Did you see the announcement? Many people are deleting accounts now, but if their things can be sold for some money, I believe many people will still be willing to get back some money. So, how’s the market now?”
“It’s falling. It keeps falling. Anyway, I’m already numb! You don’t know, but 100 million gold coins is now worth only 1,000. It’s simply terrifying!” Zhang Chunlin replied to Lin Chen’s question.
“So cheap? Then help me get 10 billion… No, 100 billion. In short, give me as much as you have! Also, I’ll take all the crafting materials, including all kinds of rare treasures, I’ll take anything. Help me keep an eye on the price and lower it to the lowest.”
At this moment, Lin Chen’s mouth was about to split open from laughing. He instructed, “After this matter is done, your hard work fee won’t be less than 100,000… Also, if you want to sell the materials and items in your hands, I’ll take them all. At least I won’t let you go bankrupt.”
“Really? Lin Chen… No, Brother Chen! From today onwards, you’re my biological brother! Don’t worry, I’ll get someone from the studio to do it now. I’ll definitely help you settle it properly! However, Brother Chen, even if the market has fallen to rock bottom, your acquisition method is very expensive. It’s probably at least ten million.”
Zhang Chunlin was also a little suspicious. He whispered over the phone, “We grew up together as friends.Brother Chen, do you know something?”
“No inside information.”
Lin Chen replied, “If you believe me, then leave something useful for yourself and improve your own account. In any case, you won’t lose out in the future!”
Lin Chen had seen through the future.
Even if he was reborn, others wouldn’t believe him if he said it!
No one would believe that the game would invade the real world in the future.
Therefore, Lin Chen could only try to persuade Zhang Chunlin.
The final outcome was still his own.
If Zhang Chunlin didn’t believe him, Lin Chen couldn’t do anything about it.
If he believed it, Zhang Chunlin would have the capital to fight against the apocalypse in the future!
