Since "The"
After the emergence of SEED, a variety of VR games emerged like mushrooms after a spring rain. Although the characteristics of each game were different, some principles remained the same.
For example, the recent VR games almost completely prohibited players and characters from changing their gender. Whether it was in the real world or the imaginary world, the characters had to be of the same gender.
This was because a stealth game wasn't just played by pressing on the keyboard in front of the screen. It required players to actually enter the game world. If the player used a character whose gender was different from the real world, it would have an undeniable effect on the player's mind and body.
Just think about it, if he skillfully performed feminine actions in the imaginary world, and then unconsciously formed the same habit in reality, how scary would that be?
In the past, some players even developed bad habits because of this. In the imaginary world, a female character would act coquettishly towards a male character. As a result, when they returned to the real world, they would completely lose interest in women. Instead, they would be especially attentive towards handsome men. It was a very scary thing.
Therefore, the major companies had long since stipulated that players could not change their gender. The gender of a character would be determined based on the frequency of the player's brainwaves. In the end, a character would be created with a different appearance but with the same gender as in the real world.
That being said, there were still a few characters who were judged to be of a completely different gender from the real world due to some mistakes.
No matter what, the frequency of human brain waves was constantly fluctuating. Perhaps something would happen at any time, causing such a thing to happen.
And now, Rozen seriously suspected that he had encountered such a thing.
If not …
"Why is it like this?"
Rozen looked at himself in the mirror and almost suspected that there was something wrong with his eyes.
His childish face was as cute as a doll.
She was petite and slender, making people wonder if she was taller than 1.5 meters.
Her skin was fair and smooth, like milk, and also like pearls, making people want to touch it a few times.
A pair of sapphire-like eyes glowed. Paired with his shoulder-length, jet-black hair, he gave off a cool vibe.
What appeared in the mirror was a very neutral character. It was hard to tell whether it was a man or a woman, a shota or a loli.
"No wonder I feel that my vision has become very low … The floor has become very close …"
So it's because of my shorter height?
Was he a man or a woman now?
Rozen resisted the urge to grope his body. He quickly opened the main window and looked at the character's gender. After looking at it a few times, he let out a sigh of relief.
"Luckily, it's a guy …"
Although he was in a game, Rozen had no intention of changing his gender. Moreover, once he switched to another game, his character's current appearance would be recorded in the game's file. Even if he switched to another game, he would still have his current appearance the next time he came back. So Rozen was glad that his gender didn't change.
Then, Rozen had a rough idea of his current situation.
"According to the information gathered by Kurumi, if you spend a lot of time nurturing an account and transfer it to another game, there's a high chance of obtaining a rare character."
Regardless of the game, players would have requirements for their character's appearance. However, other than some games, characters in any game would only be randomly generated after creation, so it wasn't easy to obtain the appearance of one's favorite character.
Because of this, in VR games, the more beautiful and special the character was, the rarer and harder to obtain. Only by spending a lot of time nurturing an account and transferring it to another game, depending on how long the account was nurtured, the chances of obtaining a rare character would increase.
Rozen's account had been nurtured since SAO's closed beta, and it had been at least three years. Moreover, SAO was the world's first fully stealth-type VRMMORPG (large-scale virtual reality online role-playing game), so it was impossible to have an account that had been nurtured longer than Rozen. Even Kirito and Rozen were only on par.
Therefore, it was only natural that Rozen obtained a rare and special character's appearance.
After all …
"Is there anything rarer and more special than my current character?"
A wave of helplessness rose in Rozen's heart.
For a moment, Rozen even had the thought of pulling Kirito into GGO.
"Based on the amount of time that Kirito's account has been nurtured, his character's appearance in this world must be very rare and special …"
'It's better to have fun together than to have fun alone. Why don't I call Kirito in?'
Rozen was ready to make a move at any moment.
Unfortunately, this prank was destined to be a failure.
Because …
"Hey … Is that him …?"
"That's impossible … right?"
"I don't think so too …"
"Yeah …"
Such whispers came out of nowhere, causing Rozen to wake up from his thoughts. He turned his head and looked around.
With one look, a dense crowd immediately entered Rozen's eyes.
Some of them were wearing military uniforms, some were wearing camouflage uniforms, some were wearing bulletproof vests, and some were even wearing protective clothing. There was everything that one could think of and all of them looked fierce. They were dressed like special forces or assassins, exuding a murderous aura.
That was nothing.
What was truly breathtaking was the fact that these people were all carrying guns.
These people were the players in GGO.
At that moment, a large number of players gathered there, pointing at Rozen.
"He looks so cute, it shouldn't be possible, right?"
"Also, I heard that he's a man, this person … Is he a man or a woman?"
"I heard that there are a few very rare types in the virtual body of a character that look like this …"
"Then he …"
The group of players was having such a conversation.
Rozen could feel that they were looking at him with doubt and hostility.
'So many people actually gathered at the birthplace of a beginner character, and they're acting like this?'
Rozen might know what was going on.
At that moment …
"Sorry to disturb you."
The person who said that and walked out of the crowd was a man wearing a dark blue combat suit with a grenade hanging on his waist. His sharp face was exposed, and his hair was dyed red like a rooster. He was also wearing goggles and a cloak.
With Rozen's current height, he would undoubtedly have to look up to him.
However, Rozen's expression was very calm.
"What's the matter?"
Rozen responded calmly.
Seeing this, the man's eyes behind the goggles seemed to narrow.
"My name is An Feng."
The man who called himself that asked.
"May I ask what your name is?"
The man named An Feng was considered polite.
However …
"You want to ask if I'm the" Rozen "from ALO, right? Why are you beating around the bush? "
Rozen's words with a smile made An Feng's eyes narrow.
"So …"
An Feng said in a deep voice.
"That's right." Rozen nodded calmly and said, "I am."
That one sentence changed the atmosphere of the audience.
It became cold and tense.
