The metaverse, starting with a deadlock

"Yuan Chao, we're done, let's break up!"

On the bustling street, a couple of young men and women are staged a drama of joys and sorrows, and many good people are happily eating melons to watch.

"Zhuzhu, please, don't leave me, give me another chance~"

The young man's face was full of pleading, and he grabbed the hem of the pretty girl's clothes to redeem him.

However, the pretty girl was unmoved, and said with a cold face, "I was really blind back then, so I fell in love with such a useless trash like you. Do you want to give you another chance to harm me? After following you for so many years , you can’t even afford the metaverse 4.0 system, is there any possibility for us to continue? I said Yuan Chao, can’t you have some backbone, since we’ve talked about this, can’t you hurry up?”

Yuan Chao's heart ached inexplicably, and he couldn't imagine that his girlfriend, who was once attached to him in every possible way, would say such unfeeling words. Is it true that a woman who has changed her heart is irretrievable?
Today was Christmas Eve, and I planned to give her a surprise, but before he could say anything about his surprise, she came with an even bigger 'surprise', which completely stunned Yuan Chao.

The pretty girl caught a glimpse of a well-dressed mature uncle walking out of the crowd, and she immediately beamed with joy, showing a bright smile, and said softly, "Honey, why are you here so soon?"

The uncle cheerfully came to the beautiful girl, put his arms around her small waist, and walked up and down wantonly, ignoring her real boyfriend Yuan Chao who was at the side with teary eyes, and said contemptuously, "I'm here to cheer you on!" , if some poor guy can't think of a life-and-death situation, wouldn't you be in danger?"

The beautiful girl was moved to tears immediately, and said softly with winking eyes, "Honey, it's good to have you."

Immediately turning his head, he said to Yuan Chao with a frosty face, "This is my new boyfriend Charlie Zhou. Although he is a bit older, he can't compare to a finger in a hundred of you. He is from this city. An elite adventurer in the top 50 of the value list, don't be ashamed of yourself, you trash!"

The uncle put his arms around the beautiful girl and smiled triumphantly, "The name is nothing, let's go, don't waste time with that hanging silk here, I put the metaverse 4.0 system chip in the hotel, hehe, last time Can you agree to my request?"

"I hate it, if you don't follow the right way, you always think about the evil way, and you don't feel sorry for others~"

Yuan Chao only felt his blood pressure soar, and his blood vessels almost exploded on the spot.

This pair of shameless dogs and men flirted and scolded in public, such a shameful humiliation, but any bloody man would absolutely not be able to bear it.

Extremely angry, Yuan Chao rushed forward with a roar.

"court death!"

The sanctimonious uncle's expression darkened, he took a step forward, and kicked out with lightning speed, directly hitting Yuan Chao's chest, sending him flying, unable to get up for a long time.

"Who do you think is standing in front of you? Laozi is a peerless master who has beaten all the world's invincible fighters in "Fist of Fury". Who gave you the courage to attack me?"

The uncle spat in disdain, and immediately walked away with his arms around the beautiful girl, not even having the desire to take a look at Yuan Chao.

"Wow, it turns out that uncle is the top [-] elite adventurers in the city's value list, no wonder that woman would choose him, and I would choose uncle~"

"I'm so envious, I also want the latest 4.0 system of Metaverse, hey, let's save money..."

"Son, you have to study hard in the future so that you can become an excellent adventurer in the future, otherwise you will be like that hanging silk, and you won't even be able to keep your girlfriend..."

Seeing that there were no melons to eat, the melon eaters gradually dispersed their discussions, leaving Yuan Chao crying bitterly on the ground covering his face.

……

Yuan Chao returned to his dilapidated rental house in a daze, as if his whole soul had been sucked out, like a walking dead.

Yuan Chao is 27 years old this year, a high school graduate, his parents died early, no savings, no RV, and now even his only girlfriend who has been in love with him for five years has left him. He has nothing left.

If nothing else, his life is about to lose all hope.

"No, I'm not completely desperate yet, I still have a chance to stand up!"

In the dark and cold rental house, Yuan Chao suddenly let out a low growl of extreme unwillingness, struggled to get up and turned on the light, and took out a metal box the size of a ring box from his pocket, his red eyes were full of hysteria.

Yuan Chao firmly believes that the metal box in front of him is his chance to turn around!
The metal box has a dazzling luster and is hexagonal in shape. It looks simple and exquisite. An artistic and beautiful Chinese character—Yuan is engraved on the lid.

Yuan Chao carefully opened the lid like a treasure, and there was a precision chip the size of a fingernail lying quietly in the box.

"Chen Mingzhu, I bought the fourth-generation Metaverse system chip after saving three years of money. I wanted to surprise you, but I didn't expect you to be so ruthless... Anyway, poverty is the original sin. This is a valuable lesson, when I become prosperous in the future, I will definitely repay today's gift tenfold!"

Chen Mingzhu is Yuan Chao's ex-girlfriend.

Yuan Chao gritted his teeth, and his chest heaved violently. It took him a long time to force himself to calm down, and then he took out a necklace with a very technological sense of shape and a blue shimmer all the time from his collar.

I hurriedly found a special tool in the room to disassemble the outer shell of the necklace, and then swiftly removed the original chip of the necklace, and installed the new chip I just got.

After doing all this, Yuan Chao lay back on the bed excitedly, closed his eyes suddenly, and said in his consciousness:

"Metaverse 4.0 system, start!"

[Didi, the system detected that a new chip was embedded, and began to detect... The detection is completed, and the data is being automatically updated... Didi, the upgrade is complete, the system restarts... Reboot is successful, identifying the user's identity information...]

[The identification is complete, confirm that the user information is a citizen of Huaxia, ID card 41576XXXXX, name Yuan Chao, good physical condition, no criminal record, current value is 65 points, good evaluation, normal bioelectrical connection, normal neuron value ...]

[The front end is ready, the Metaverse 4.0 system starts, and the countdown to data initialization is ten seconds...]

[10, 9, 8, 7...]

[... 1, 0! 】

As the countdown ended, Yuan Chao seemed to have a bang in his consciousness, and his soul escaped from his body and entered a brand new world.

……

It is now 2053 A.D., and science and technology are highly developed. Human beings have already set their footsteps in exploration to the edge of the solar system, and interstellar immigration is no longer a dream.

Feedback by the continuous resources from outer space, the productivity explosion on the earth has already realized fully automated production. Even if everyone does not work, they can easily feed all human beings. The social structure has undergone earth-shaking changes 20 years ago.

The two fundamental reasons are space technology and metaverse system.

There is no need to go into details about space science and technology, the development process is well known, and the current brilliant achievements can be regarded as accumulated, but the metaverse system, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the greatest invention of this century.

The specific meaning of the metaverse is very complicated to explain. Generally speaking, it is a virtual world parallel to reality, and it can even be regarded as a virtual infinite world of the heavens.

20 years ago, the first-generation metaverse system successfully launched and caused a global sensation.

If space technology changes the material needs of all mankind, then the metaverse system changes people's spiritual needs.

In the metaverse world, every user can freely choose to start a new life and decide their own destiny. Even the most down-and-out loser in the real world can dominate the virtual world, experience a completely different life, A short life has been wonderfully lived.

The most exaggerated thing is that due to the unique and special protection mechanism, the materials obtained by users in the metaverse world can be linked to the real world, which creates countless wealth myths of getting rich overnight. A large number of civilians who have lost hope in their lives frantically pursue them.

Frustrated in life, betrayed by his lover, Yuan Chao has nothing left. The only thing that can change his destiny is the seemingly illusory Metaverse 4.0 system.

At this point, he has no choice.

[Welcome to the Metaverse 4.0 system. Next, users have two options. One is to recharge and upgrade, and they can choose to go to the virtual world of adventure. Select within minutes. 】

When Yuan Chao heard this, he couldn't help feeling bitter in his heart.

This is the tragedy of the poor.

The Metaverse world is not a free game. It is full of miracles, but it is also accompanied by great risks.

There's never such a thing as pie in the sky, never!
Some virtual worlds are extremely rich in resources and low in risk, and users can easily earn huge profits, but some virtual worlds are poor in resources and extremely dangerous, which is nothing more than hell for users. any comparability.

Taking risks in the virtual world is not playing a game, but an extremely realistic time travel, without script restrictions at all, but a 100% high-degree-of-freedom adventure.

Adventure is life, there is no chance to fail again.

Once the user dies in the virtual world, the value points will be deducted, and when the user's value points are all deducted, the user will completely lose the qualification to use the metaverse system.

At that time, they will be abandoned by the entire human society, and they will never be reborn forever.

"Hey, why do you think so much? Who makes you poor." Yuan Chao laughed at himself, and said with a heavy heart, "Make sure to choose random distribution."

[Confirm the random allocation, the system starts to draw the virtual world, after the drawing is completed, confirm the initial adventure world - "I Have a Date with Zombies 2", and immediately enter the virtual world. 】

"Fuck, "I Have a Date with a Zombie 2"? Are you playing me?"

When Yuan Chao heard the news, he almost collapsed on the spot as if struck by lightning.

The virtual world is also divided into difficulty and difficulty, which can be roughly divided into five levels: no magic, low magic, medium magic, high magic, and super magic.

To put it bluntly, users taking risks in the virtual world are plundering the resources of the virtual world like former colonists, which is essentially a robbery.

But plunder itself is a profound knowledge. Everyone knows that weak and rich fat sheep are the best targets. If the target of plunder is stronger than yourself, who the f*ck would be so stupid as to seek death on purpose?

Yuan Chao is very unlucky, the beginning is hell difficulty.

There is no other reason, just because "My Date with a Zombie 2" is the most difficult super magic world.

In a trance, Yuan Chao, whose face was ashen, found himself in front of a tall public house.

Public housing, also known as public housing estates, is a unique residential building in Xiangjiang.

The moment he saw the public housing, Yuan Chao knew that the adventure had already begun, so he could only accept the reality and cheer up.

He dared not take negative risks.

Today's AI intelligence is extremely advanced and has its own set of mature evaluation criteria. Once you are passive and slack during the adventure, it is likely that all value points will be deducted at the end.

His current value points were earned with painstaking efforts, and every point is extremely precious and absolutely cannot be lost.

Even if he knew he would fail, he had to work hard to take the risk.

[Given that this world is an extremely difficult super-magic world, the system authorized users to conduct a novice experience. After successfully completing the experience, they will receive corresponding rewards. Will the user accept it? 】

Yuan Chao, who had lost all hope, suddenly heard the system's prompt, and couldn't help being elated, and hastily replied subconsciously, "Accept, accept!"

As far as Yuan Chao knows, only a very small number of extremely difficult virtual worlds will have novice experience at the beginning, in order to prevent users from hanging up too quickly.

There was once a big cow on the forum proudly showing off that after going through the experience of a novice, he was reborn directly, and has since reached the pinnacle of life.

I didn't expect such a good thing to happen to me, so why not agree?

[The novice experience mission - Ghost Mansion is officially launched. 】

[Task requirements: The user needs to survive in the building for 48 hours, and cannot leave the building during this period, otherwise the judgment will fail immediately. 】

[Mission Reward: A mysterious reward that won't disappoint you. 】

[Failure penalty: Randomly deduct 10 to 60 value points. 】

[Remarks: This is an ominous place. It is said that there are fierce ghosts haunting it. Residents die every year. Surviving is the only thing you need to do. 】

After listening to the task introduction, Yuan Chao's face turned from ashen to livid.

This shit is a novice task? ?
