Chapter 121: Chapter 121 – Adding And Patching
When Ren Suo just fell asleep, it happened to trigger the plot, causing him to see it when he woke up the next day. 24 hours have passed but only 13 have passed in the game. The real time was actually faster than the game time.
Nine-tailed Fox returned to the embassy while Old Zhao informed that they were in urgent consultations and negotiations with Fan Ying State, though other countries were also disrupting the situation. Fan Ying was a multi-party country and hence, even the Prime Minister was subject to the impact of the consortium. As a result, progress had been temporarily delayed.
However, the National Treasure was already in emergency transportation and was expected to arrive in Tokyo within one day. Old Zhao also promised that in at most another day, the national treasure required by Xiao Lan the cat will be delivered.
One day was not considered too long nor short.
Ren Suo was able to fast-forward the game time previously but he was no longer able to do so now. He could only leave the game console on and allow the game to progress.
However, Ren Suo didn’t sit back and do nothing. Although the nine-tailed fox has now exposed its appearance, “Illusion” could still be applied to temporarily alter its appearance. He then controlled nine-tailed fox and led it to Tokyo Tower where they waited for the light beam. However, after 18 hours, evolution can occur once more.
After that, Ren Suo got bored.
Unintentionally, Ren Suo discovered that the Mini Worlds Gaming Console did become rather significant to him and was now a huge part of his life. Whenever he was not playing, there would be nothing else for him to do.
This is not okay, Ren Suo thought to himself. Hence, he took out the unopened Hell 4Pro game console that he had been keeping for months, plugged it into the television and switched on the “Unknown Heroes 8” game that he hadn’t opened before, in a bid to play it.
At this moment, the Hell 4 controller was finally back in his embrace, away from the domineering Mini Worlds Gaming Console. It had finally resumed its true function.
However, Ren Suo felt a little bored after playing for a while.
“Unparalleled Spirits 8” can be considered the first game of Ren Suo’s first choice. The quality of the game was naturally not bad. Although it was often criticized for having characters that were dressed in clothes that were too revealing, the players were actually thrilled to play the game, for it was extremely pleasing to the eye.
Watching the beautiful girls manipulate the cool and gorgeous weapons to kill the Quartet inside, Ren Suo felt that the vibrations of the controller seemed to be simulating the pulse of the female game characters. Such a sense of thrill had undoubtedly made “Unparalleled Spirits 8” an excellent game.
However, that was it.
At this moment, Ren Suo thought of something that his class tutor had said before—
“What’s the point in these games that you play?”
At that time, Ren Suo thought to himself, If only playing games was productive and useful.
It was now a useful thing to play games, but once entertainment becomes work, one would be blinded by their own desires and anxiety, and become a mercenary person.
Just like professional e-sports players, they spend a dozen hours a day training for the sake of their dreams.
Now that Ren Suo had a game console that could change his future, he had no reason to hang and slack around anymore. His rationality wouldn’t allow it.
Ren Suo took out the game disc and put it away before switching off the game console and placing it back inside the box. He then placed the box in the television cabinet like a brand-new product that had not been opened.
The mobile phone rang again. Ren Suo looked at the number and realized that he didn’t recognize it. He picked it up, only to hear a middle-aged woman saying, “Hello Ren Suo, I’m your third aunt …”
After spending more than ten minutes on the phone, Ren Suo finally managed to hang up. If he wasn’t afraid that his mother would be berated by his relatives, he would have told his aunt that she had called the wrong number.
Ever since his relatives found out that Ren Suo had been admitted to Tianjing College, his mother who had been mocked by arrogant relatives and neighbors who continuously showed off their children’s admission letters to Tianjing College, suddenly had a reason to stand up to them. She continuously asked everyone where their children had graduated from and where they were working. She would then humbly brag by saying, “Oh my boy isn’t that competent. He can’t make that much money. All he’s achieved is a place in Tianjing College…”
Ren Suo’s father said, “Your mother has been as satisfied as a woman who caught her husband committing adultery red-handed.”
While Ren Suo’s mother was over the moon, he was actually suffering. Plenty of his former classmates from elementary school, junior high school, and high school have been calling these days to ask about how much it cost to practice magic. It would be easy to brush them off, for he could just hang up. What else could they do to him? At most, he just won’t attend the classmates’ gathering.
However, it was much more troublesome when it came to dealing with his relatives because he couldn’t just hang up on them. He had to continuously show them that he did not have a significant status in Tianlian College so as to stop them from getting him to help their children get a place there.
After ending the call, he received some messages on WeChat from several other classmates from the university whom he rarely spoke to.
No one ever cared when he was down and out. Yet, now that he was doing well, everyone was eagerly approaching him and asking for help.
The reason why the uproar suddenly broke out in the past few days was because the government had stopped trying to hide it and even proactively announced the establishment of the Cultivator’s Institute, and let the officials of Xuan Nation and Japan declare that scientists have discovered a new form of energy that can be used by certain qualified people to obtain various effects.
Although it was said that the masses were clear-minded and could think for themselves, most people tend to follow trends. Despite being extremely curious about cultivation and supernatural things, they would never take it too seriously so long as the theories have not been officially confirmed, or unless they have seen it in person.
After all, there were televisions installed in millions of households. Everyone had all received compulsory education and hence, were introduced to the systematic theory of science.
Maybe some people believed in gods and Buddhas while others believed in ghosts and hence were afraid of going to the toilet in the middle of the night… but it would be absurd to believe that their relatives, classmates, and colleagues could cultivate and become immortals.
Well, gods and ghosts are not falsifiable, but mortals becoming immortals were.
However, the government had now spoken. The masses would definitely criticize the government for doing a bad job, losing credibility and being ridiculous. However, they were not brainless and hence, knew that the government will not publish nonsense that usually only appeared in boring novels.
Therefore, with the exception of a few stubborn ones, most people trusted the officials and firmly believed that the future will definitely be an era of the Extraordinaires. If there were only a few people who had the abilities, the government will most likely hide it. The government would only make a big deal when it was a major, unparalleled force.
Ren Suo logged into WeChat and discovered that someone had reposted a news article regarding the Pacific Confederation announcing the existence of ‘mysterious energy’ in the world.
“The next few days will be the blowout period of the world’s major news and headlines …”
Xuan Nation and the Pacific Confederation both announced the existence of Reiki at the same time, and it was apparent that they were ready for the Reiki era. The domestic reiki training facilities were so large that they could no longer be concealed and hence, the government had no choice but to announce it.
Other small countries may not be ready, but the two big countries have declared their stand. The only thing they could do was to keep up with the trend and establish training institutions for Extraordinaires.
The world is advancing forward.
Ren Suo will continue to work hard.
He used the Hell 4Pro controller to switch on the Mini Worlds and got ready to continue playing “All-devouring Soul”. He wanted to get the nine-tailed fox to search for the powerful spirit hidden in Tokyo.
However, when the main interface was displayed, Ren Suo found that the screen dinged, and a prompt showed up on the upper left corner of the main interface to notify him that he had received a new message.
[Version 1.10 of “Holy Priest: Survival Battle” has been updated.]
At this moment, the flashing ‘Download’ tab in the “Holy Priest: Survival Battle” finally disappeared.
“What?”
Greatly stunned, Ren Suo subconsciously selected “Holy Priest: Survival Battle”.
At this moment, the system prompted:
[Dear player, I regret to inform you that bonus quests have been added to this game. The minimum player limit is Level 3 players. You cannot play this game, please upgrade to level 3 before resuming.]
Ren Suo was dumbfounded and shocked to be rejected.
What kind of a shitty game updates itself automatically and informs the player that they can’t play because they were not competent enough?
This game can also despise players!?!
