Success.
It was a huge success in two aspects.
The first was the game, "The Road of a Hero in an Alternate World". It had been downloaded more than 100,000 times and earned 500,000 yuan.
Secondly, they easily won the championship of the Shengjing City High School Basketball League with a perfect record … An army formed by two monsters could easily destroy other teams.
And because of his excellent performance, Li Dong was chosen by many famous universities. Eighteen universities promised to give him a full scholarship and waive all tuition and fees.
In other words, the financial problems that Li Dong needed to consider when he wanted to go to university were completely solved. The only thing he needed to consider was which university to go to.
All his worries had been resolved.
But at this time, Li Dong seemed to have an extra 500,000 in his hands.
And the game Brave in a Different World had just become popular. Its market potential had not fully exploded. It was possible that the number of downloads in the future would exceed 200,000, 500,000, or even 1 million.
The income that an ordinary office worker could only earn after a lifetime of hard work could be easily earned by a game developed by an independent person.
Then …
Things became a little tricky.
Li Dong noticed that many people in the school looked at him differently.
There was admiration, envy, and, of course, jealousy.
Among the girls.
He had become the most dazzling star in the whole of Xihai No. 3 High School.
"Touki is tall and handsome. He is unrivaled in basketball. He also has a very smart mind. He made a game with more than 100,000 downloads … He is really a perfect man."
"Touki is the surname of the Protoss. It is said that the Protoss have extraordinary abilities and extraordinary intelligence. If Touki's excellence can be explained by 'he is a Protoss', then it makes perfect sense."
"Yes, I also think that Touki is a real Protoss. But for some reason, he has fallen to the bottom of society like us."
"Ah, not good, I … I found that I may have fallen in love with Touki. I suddenly want to be his closest life partner!"
…
After school.
In the bushes behind the teaching building.
"Touki, my … my name is Chika Shizuka. I have been quietly watching you for a long time. Today, I plucked up a lot of courage to come in front of you and say what I can't hide: Touki, I like you, please go out with me!"
A confession.
Li Dong was confessed by a girl who liked him.
Apart from the confession letters that had accumulated to a hundred, this was the first time someone confessed to him face to face.
And the girl standing in front of him was very beautiful and cute.
Soft waist-length hair, a slender figure, fair and smooth skin, a delicate and small face, and an extraordinary temperament … If placed in the real world, she would definitely be a beauty above 90 points.
Now, such a high-quality beauty actually took the initiative to confess to him.
In the real world, he wouldn't even dare to imagine such a thing. In fact, just imagining it would make him feel inferior and ridiculous … such a possibility didn't exist.
"If a girl takes the initiative to confess to me, I don't expect her to be a beauty. As long as she's not too ugly, I'll be happy to accept her." Perhaps many people had thought this way, including Li Dong.
But in the game, girls with less than 60 points were rare, and there were plenty of girls with 70 or 80 points and above. Over time, as one's sense of beauty improved, it was no longer so easy to be tempted by a delicate appearance … In short, one's willpower improved.
However, in the game world, one could do whatever they wanted and indulge their desires. There were plenty of players who could set up harems and do whatever they wanted.
Therefore, as long as Li Dong gave up on some unnecessary insistence, the girl in front of him who was confessing to him could be his friend.
"I'm sorry, I can't promise you."
Li Dong rejected her. "Qian Jia, maybe you know me very well, but I know nothing about you. Put yourself in my shoes and think about it. If a strange boy took the initiative to confess to you, I believe you wouldn't agree either. Only if you know each other very well can you be together."
Seeing her body tremble slightly as if she was a little sad, Li Dong hurriedly comforted her. "Don't be sad, Qian Jia. I admire your courage. I'm not the most outstanding man in the world. You'll meet someone better."
After a while, he finally comforted her and sent her out of the school.
"Even so, at least for the next three days, Qian Jia will spend her time in a state of failure."
"And all of this should be because I'm too outstanding … This is probably the price of being outstanding."
It was just that he received dozens of love letters every day. Every day, there would be girls pulling him to the back of the school building. Such days would feel very blissful at first, but after a long time, it would become troublesome and harassing. Normal people would gradually be unable to bear it.
Regarding this, Li Dong could only publicly state:
"First, I have no plans to date girls at the moment. I will never fall in love before I go to college. I will focus on my studies.
"Second, I reject all love letters and confessions. Please don't waste your efforts.
"Third, my sexual orientation is normal. I'm not gay. Please don't make wild guesses."
After these announcements were made.
The harassment was significantly reduced, and it was a lot quieter.
Even so.
The dazzling light on Li Dong could not dissipate. Who asked him to be outstanding in all aspects?
…
At the end of June, it was gradually getting hotter.
The final exam of Xihai No. 3 High School was over.
The 45-day summer vacation had arrived.
Of course, compared to the real world, this was only two days and a few hours. It passed in the blink of an eye.
Li Dong intended to seize these two precious days to have a good rest and restore his brain power. At the same time, he wanted to connect with his real-life friends.
In the chat group.
"President, I heard that in Galaxy Era, you chose the refined experience mode. You spend more than 18 hours a day in the game, including sleeping and studying. You're very … hardworking. Is that right?" Mu Wanqiu asked with great interest.
"Yes. If you want to play well, you have to go deep into the game."
"In that case, you have a very close relationship with the intelligent NPCs. There are a lot of stories between you, and you might even have a virtual relationship?"
"Well, I haven't been in a relationship yet. Wanqiu, why are you asking this?"
"A few of my male friends have recently said that the NPC girls in the virtual game are much better than the girls in real life in every aspect, be it looks, personality, or temperament. That's why they've all married NPC girlfriends or wives and are living very contented and blissful lives."
Mu Wanqiu asked with some concern, "President, you haven't been attracted by those cute NPC girls and fallen into the river of virtual love, have you?"
"Uh … I admit that NPC girls have many lovely things, but I haven't fallen for them yet."
Li Dong was a little surprised and asked, "Hey, Wanqiu, why do you care about this?"
