Chapter 22 - Companions

This was the world’s first holographic virtual game. Qin Yu clearly remembered that it would make a huge impact all over the world when it was just released. However, because it happened to be released on April 1, many people thought of it as an April Fool’s Day joke, only a few took it seriously in the first few days, and it didn’t become popular until half a month later.

“Marvel Universe? What kind of game is this? The development company is Eternal Technology Network, but it is still a legendary holographic virtual game. Damn, how does it feel like science fiction? This must be a joke on April Fools’ Day, right? “Wang Donglai asked in surprise.

Liu Wei nodded in agreement, “Yes, yeah, it feels too unreliable.”

The four of them continued to look back, and suddenly saw the price of the game.

“Damn, the game cabin’s price is one million RMB? Are they robbing money?”

Then Qi Jianfei shook his head, “You can’t look at it this way, you think, the holographic virtual game, which is just like another world, it must be fun to play, and one million is worth it.” Qi Jianfei was very yearning for this game.

Liu Wei shook his head and said, “There are a few people in a million that can get it out, just for a game.”

Wang Donglai also nodded, “That’s right, and it turned out to be a holographic virtual game. I haven’t heard of any country that has studied this technology. It suddenly came out. It feels too fake. It must be an April Fools’ Day joke.”

Qi Jianfei also became a little nervous when they said that: “Is it really fake? That’s really disappointing.”

“No, this game is real.” Qin Yu suddenly said.

“How do you know?” Liu Wei and Wang Donglai asked in disbelief.

“Because I played it before.”

The room was quiet for a while, and Wang Donglai suddenly patted Qin Yu on the shoulder.

“Damn, Old Qin, your acting is so realistic, I almost believed it.”

Qin Yu felt really helpless. He told the truth, but no one believed it.

But he also expected this result.

“I didn’t act, I did play this game. Strictly speaking, I participated in the Closed Beta version of the game. It was around the Spring Festival a few years ago. However, because of the signing of a confidential contract, I cannot disclose details before the Open Beta is released.”

Seeing that Qin Yu was serious, several people were a little bit convinced-but only a little bit.

“Is it fun? Is it really a holographic virtual game?”

“It’s fun, very fun, let’s put it this way, you can throw all other games away after playing this game.” Qin Yu said very seriously and affirmatively.

He gave a brief introduction to the content of the Marvel Universe game, and the three roommates showed longing expressions.

“Think about it, Eternal Technology has advertised so many ads for this game. Is this money just for a joke? Obviously, it’s impossible, so this game is indeed real.”

This statement was the key point. No one would throw money out of the window.

However, Wang Donglai still shook his head, “Even if this game is real, who can spend a million to buy a cabin?”

Liu Wei also nodded, “Yeah, yeah, it is too expensive, only several riches can afford it. One million… I don’t worth that much even if I sell myself.”

However, Qin Yu knew that Qi Jianfei definitely took it out.

Among the four people in his dormitory, Wang Donglai was a typical civilian child. He had to rely on student loans to go to university. He was very frugal and felt painful after eating a buffet. One million for playing games, it’s like a dream for him.

Liu Wei’s a little better, he ran a small restaurant and had some savings. But it was only a few hundred thousand at most. It was crazy to plan to use the money that was saved for getting married to play games.

Qin Yu’s financial condition was considered to be the second-best of the four. Because of his parent’s divorce, Qin Yu lived alone, and the two felt that they owe him a lot of money, so they gave him a lot of money on weekdays, which added up to more than one million.

If I didn’t want to start my own business and get rid of the shadow of my parents in my previous life, this one million would be enough for playing games.

But Qi Jianfei was the richest of the four, a typical second-generation rich, but he usually his it. In his previous life, Qin Yu only learned the truth from the drunk Qi Jianfei after the four were separated.

His family used to open a factory. In recent years, they switched to real estate. His father’s property was said to be worth hundreds of millions.

Qi Jianfei was the only heir, so his father was almost responsive to him. In the last life, Qi Jianfei bought a game cabin not long after the public beta and started playing. He wanted to play with the three friends in the dormitory, but unfortunately, the three of them were looking for jobs and doing business, so they didn’t have the heart to play games at all. In the end, Qi Jianfei could only play by himself, and then gradually lost contact.

But this time, they could play together.

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t have money, as long as you follow me, I can buy more game cabins to lend you to play, and I can also pay you a salary, just treat it as if I hired you to play games with me.”

Wang Donglai said in surprise, “What the hell do you intend to do? Not only treating us fried chicken and beer but also hiring us to play games with you? Isn’t the change too much?”

Liu Wei smiled, “Your joke is a bit overdone. We are also fresh university students. Shouldn’t we go find a job and create a career, instead of playing games with you? Things are not that simple.”

Qin Yu knew that Qi Jianfei’s words should be sincere. This guy was born to love to play, plus he didn’t need to earn money, so it’s really possible to hire a few people to play games with him.

But as Liu Wei said, things were not that simple.

Qi Jianfei scratched his head, “I just think if we can play together, it will be very enjoyable and very happy. When I think of separation, it feels so uncomfortable.”

Qi Jianfei’s remarks were half true. Although their relationship was pretty good, it definitely didn’t reach the point of inseparable. Qi Jianfei was just a playful person and wanted to bring a few more people to play with him.

“Forget it, we’re about to graduate soon, I just got an internship job, and I’m going to work in a big company soon, we don’t have the leisurely mind of a second-generation rich like you.”

Liu Wei also nodded, and said earnestly, “A Fei, although what you said is really good, it must be super enjoyable to play, but we must think about the future. We can’t accompany you for the rest of our life.”

Qi Jianfei was said to lose his temper and sighed, “Okay, just pretend I didn’t say it.”

“Let me play with you, but the game cabin is no longer needed, I can buy it myself.” Qin Yu suddenly said.
