After Shifeng left his rented apartment, he took a taxi to the city center's business district.
When Shifeng arrived at Jin Hai City's business district, he discovered that the shopping mall selling electronic products was currently packed with people. After much difficulty, a few youths rushed out from the sea of people in the shopping mall, holding God's Domain's virtual reality helmets in their hands.
"Hahaha! This is too satisfying! Fortunately, I came to line up at seven in the morning. Now, after waiting for three hours, I finally got my hands on one! From today onwards, I will struggle in God's Domain for the rest of my life!" a lean youth wearing a blue T-shirt laughed heartily as he carefully hugged the God's Domain helmet he just bought.
"Do you need me to carry you guys? My friend has been playing since God's Domain's launch. He's already Level 4 now. As long as he gives us pointers, our leveling speed will be very fast. If we're lucky, he might even be able to carry us," another curly-haired youth said proudly.
"Really? Then it's a deal. We'll be depending on you. From now on, we'll take care of all the university lunches for you."
"Leave it to me. He and I are sworn brothers."
When the other youths heard that an expert was willing to give them pointers, they all grew excited, fantasizing about their beautiful future.
After the global corporations entered God's Domain, they invested crazily. In addition to the various news reports, ordinary people saw a path to wealth.
These major corporations frequently offered high prices to recruit gaming experts. They even offered an annual salary of three million Credits to top-tier gaming experts of the older generation. In the past, this was practically unimaginable in the virtual gaming world. Those who could earn an annual salary of a million Credits were all god-like characters. Now, even outdated experts could be offered an annual salary of three million Credits. As for the currently popular top-tier experts, they even offered an annual salary of eight million Credits.
According to Shifeng's knowledge, the current Guild Leader of Ouroboros only had an annual salary of six million Credits. The Snow Goddess, Gentle Snow, only had an annual salary of four million Credits. Of course, the Snow Goddess did not care about this small amount of money. She could earn tens of millions just by casually doing an advertisement. In addition to her family's financial situation, money was not a problem. She only pursued the joy of adventure, unlike Shifeng, who sought to change his fate and achieve his unfulfilled wish.
"Fortunately, I'm not going to buy a helmet." Shifeng glanced at the sea of people in the mall and sighed. He then turned around and walked to a mobile phone store next to the electronic mall.
It was very inconvenient to keep using the old mobile phone, so Shifeng was preparing to replace it with an A.I. electronic watch. Not only could it support all kinds of voice calls, but it could also support the binding of bank accounts. This way, Shifeng would be able to pay credits at any time. He would no longer have to carry a stack of money with him when he walked out the door all day long.
As soon as Shifeng entered the optical computer and electronic watch store, he was greeted by a beautiful sales lady.
"Sir, how may I be of service to you? Our shop is the best in terms of quality, and we have all kinds of mobile phones. I especially recommend the latest model, the Quantum Supercomputer 3000. It is self-binding, waterproof, and absolutely safe. Not only can you make payments in the real world, but you can also make payments in God's Domain's virtual reality games."
"Alright, take me there to have a look."
"Sir, this way please."
Hearing Shifeng's tone, the beautiful sales lady hurriedly and respectfully led Shifeng to the A.I. area. She then took out over a dozen models of optical computer watches. Not only were their designs beautiful, but their designs were also very convenient. They also had a full virtual screen. Even if one were to exercise vigorously, the picture quality, clarity, and sound would not be affected in the slightest.
"Sir, we are currently doing a promotion for God's Domain. Only 29999 Credits, not 30,000 Credits."
Shifeng could not help but sweat when he heard the sales lady's recommendation. What difference was there between this and 30,000 Credits? An ordinary university student would need to work for half a year before they could afford to pay 30,000 Credits. However, Shi Feng indeed wanted to buy the latest model. After all, it was much more convenient. Although it was good for his body to make frequent trips to the bank, it was also very troublesome. It was especially true when it came to transactions involving millions of Credits.
"I'll take this dark-blue model." Shifeng chose a model with a decent appearance.
Under the sales lady's guidance, Shifeng bound his identity, phone number, bank account, and so on. Following which, Shifeng swiped his optical computer's electronic watch, paying for the purchase. It was very convenient.
After obtaining the watch, Shifeng went to purchase ten bottles of A-rank Nutrient Fluids and 50 bottles of B-rank Nutrient Fluids, spending a total of 150,000 Credits. Although it was a heartache, for the sake of his body, Shifeng still needed to undergo intensive training. Hence, he needed to purchase at least this many Credits.
Beep … Beep … Beep …
The optical computer's electronic watch vibrated as it rang, notifying him that the caller was Class Monitor Zhao Ruoxi.
The beautiful class monitor, Zhao Ruoxi, hadn't called him since the last time she informed him to attend the class meeting.
"Class Monitor, what's the matter?" Shifeng asked after picking up the call.
"Shifeng, can't I call you if there's nothing important? Or do you hate it when I call you? "Zhao Ruoxi asked in a somewhat depressed tone.
"No, how is that possible? I haven't had the chance to thank you for your help last time." Shifeng hurriedly replied when he heard Zhao Ruoxi's resentful tone. In his heart, Zhao Ruoxi was definitely a very good girl. She was intelligent, kind, and beautiful. When the entire class stood on Ling Feilong's side, she was the only one who stood out to speak for him.
"That's more like it. At least you still have some conscience." Zhao Ruoxi laughed. "The date of the Fellowship Party I mentioned to you last time has been confirmed to be next Friday. If you want to participate, you have to pay 5,000 Credits. I've already paid for you. Don't forget to be on time."
Saying so, Zhao Ruoxi hung up the phone, leaving Shifeng stunned for a long time.
"Ruoxin, why did you inform Shi Feng? You even paid the participation fee for him. He's not a good person. Normally, he's been holding himself back. He must be plotting something. There's a huge disparity between your statuses. In order to change his fate, he'll definitely do whatever it takes to get close to you. Ling Feilong pretended to be concerned about Shifeng. Inwardly, however, he was about to go crazy from anger. A mere pauper had actually attracted Zhao Ruoxi's attention and even paid for his participation. This proved that Zhao Ruoxi was definitely interested in Shifeng.
"Enough, Ling Feilong. Whoever I want to pay for is my own business. I don't need you to butt in," Zhao Ruoxi said with some dissatisfaction.
Ling Feilong was so angry that he was speechless. However, he did not dare to show it. In his heart, he hated Shifeng to the bone. Originally, everything had been going smoothly. However, he never imagined that the Shifeng would suddenly appear, changing everything.
Shifeng, just you wait. Since I can't do anything to you, I'll just tell Zhao Ruoxi's uncle. Let's see how he will deal with you. Ling Feilong inwardly sneered. With Shifeng's lowly status, Zhao Ruoxi's uncle would definitely not agree to it. As long as he used a little bit of his strength, dealing with a brat like Ling Feilong would be a piece of cake. He could kill Ling Feilong however he wanted.
At 18 PM, the Shifeng had already returned to their rented apartment. After running around for an entire afternoon, the Shifeng finally found a decent apartment in the city center. The apartment was well-equipped, and the surrounding environment was excellent. Since they had already paid the deposit, the Shifeng only needed to pack up their things today and move in tomorrow.
After tidying up their belongings, the Shifeng drank a bottle of B-rank Nutrient Fluid. They then lay on the bed and put on their helmets, entering God's Domain and starting their struggle.
