Chapter 1
Was everything finally going to end?
At this mont, all Lin Chen could see was the ruined city.
All kinds of buildings were shattered and collapsed.
Countless people were like ants that were being harvested by a monster that was more than a hundred ters tall.
Right now, his mind played visions like a powerpoint slide…
He knew that he was going to die soon!
Just like everyone else, he would be trampled rcilessly by this monster!
At this mont, Lin Chen was filled with regret…
He knew the monster’s na.
He was not the only one. Many people knew about it.
Dark Demon Dragon!
This was a level 80 boss in New World, the ga of the century that was popular throughout the entire Blue Planet!
Half a month ago, the New World online ga announced that the server would be shut down.
Hence, many people broke down.
The entire internet was wailing!
After all, this was a VR online ga of the century that had been running for 20 years!
It could be said that it contained the mory and youth of two generations.
There were more than a billion players on the entire Blue Planet!
Hence, people sold their equipnt and gold coins crazily.
Everyone only had one thought: recoup their losses!
The more extre ones would even delete their accounts in anger!
Lin Chen was one of them.
Before the ga stopped service, he sold all his equipnt, materials, and gold coins at a low price.
After all, he still had to live.
But who would have thought that the mont New World officially stopped its servers, everything would change…
First, the terrain of the Blue Planet changed and expanded rapidly.
A scarlet blood moon hung high in the sky.
Then, the bosses in New World actually invaded reality one after another.
They treated human lives like nothing and wreaked havoc everywhere.
The entire world beca like hell!
At this mont, not far from Lin Chen, a person in ga clothes was vomiting blood.
He was also a player of New World.
Unlike Lin Chen, this person did not delete his account or sell his equipnt.
Therefore, he inherited his abilities in the ga.
However, this person’s level didn’t seem to be high.
“I only have a score of 80 and inherited 80% of my strength. My level has dropped from 80 to 64. I can’t take it at all… I’m leaving. You guys are on your own!”
That person complained before summoning his mount and running away.
The ga invaded reality, so…
Players could also inherit their ga abilities!
What if Lin Chen hadn’t sold his account?
Lin Chen was filled with regret.
He couldn’t help but think of his own account.
And…
So of the comrades he knew in the ga.
BANG!
Suddenly, there was a violent explosion.
Lin Chen was sent flying.
Blood kept spurting out.
His lower body was nowhere to be found…
His entire consciousness seed to be on the verge of death.
Things had already co to this.
It was useless to regret it now.
Lin Chen, who was on his deathbed, used his last bit of consciousness to make a call.
Soon, an anxious voice ca from the phone.
“Lin Chen, where are you? Hang in there and hide! I’ll co and save you right away!”
“Farewell… ngyao!”
Lin Chen slowly closed his eyes.
The world that belonged to him began to return to silence…
After an unknown period of ti.
Lin Chen opened his eyes.
However, a voice sounded in his ears. “What farewell? You’re just spouting nonsense! It’s just New World shutting down! So what, we can play another ga! Besides, we can still play this ga for another half a month!”
Liu ngyao?
Lin Chen’s face was filled with disbelief.
How could he still hear sounds even after he died?
This was indeed… Liu ngyao’s voice!
He could not be more familiar with it.
Liu ngyao and he were teammates in New World.
Of course, the two of them had another layer of relationship…
They were a couple in the ga!
But none of that mattered. The important thing was…
What was going on?
Why did Liu ngyao say that there was still half a month before New World would stop service?
Lin Chen reflexively looked at the date on his phone…
2150.
April 13th!
BOOM!
Lin Chen was incredibly astonished.
‘What’s going on here?’
Could it be that the images of the ga invading reality in his mind just now were all a dream?
However, those scenes were so vivid.
He even rembered his phone call with Liu ngyao!
He rembered that he was about to tell Liu ngyao that he was going to sell his account.
Liu ngyao’s response had been…
Lin Chen decided to give it a try. He said into the phone, “But without this ga, I’m afraid we won’t have much contact anymore… I-I’m going to sell my account. What about you?”
“Huh? No way!”
Liu ngyao’s voice ca from the phone, “Why should I sell it? It can’t be sold for much now! Besides, there are a lot of mories in here. I’m planning to play until the last second before the server closes.”
As expected, Liu ngyao’s answer was still the sa…
Lin Chen had already morized the conversation between the two of them.
That ant…
Lin Chen was not dreaming!
He must have… been reborn!
He had returned to the ti when the ga had yet to be closed!
Moreover, he had not sold his account yet.
All his equipnt was there!
At this mont, Lin Chen was very excited.
However, Liu ngyao’s voice ca from the phone, “Hey… why aren’t you saying anything? Don’t tell … you really want to sell your account?”
He could hear the disappointnt in Liu ngyao’s voice.
She and Lin Chen could be considered to have t in the ga.
And to Liu ngyao, this ga wasn’t just a ga.
It was still a beautiful mory of hers.
Lin Chen was a part of this mory.
Now that she heard Lin Chen say that he wanted to sell his account and refused to accompany her to the end, she was naturally disappointed.
Liu ngyao was indeed disappointed by Lin Chen in his mories before his rebirth. However, when the ga invaded the real world, Liu ngyao, who had inherited the ga’s abilities, still said that she wanted to look for him imdiately…
At the thought of this, Lin Chen smiled and replied, “I’m just joking. After all, you’re not the only one with mories of New World. That’s also my mories and my youth! Don’t worry, not only will I not sell my account, but I’ll also walk side by side with you until the last mont! Moreover, this ti, I’ll take you through the dungeon that we haven’t cleared and the ga scenes that we haven’t been to!”
“Really? Then it’s settled! I’m going to sleep first. You should sleep early too. Bring tomorrow!”
Liu ngyao’s voice ca through the phone.
“Yup!”
Lin Chen nodded heavily.
He had been reborn.
This feeling was really good!
After hanging up, Lin Chen did not go to sleep imdiately. Instead, he logged into the ga’s forum.
[After more than ten years of youth, you’re going to stop the server just like that? The New World ga is really inhumane!]
[I’ll sell my account at a low price! The higher-ups and planners of the New World are all idiots!]
[I’m having a ntal breakdown. What fun is there in only having half a month?I will start a live broadcast to lt my equipnt! If I want to quit, I might as well quit now!]
[…]
The entire forum was filled with such posts.
Lin Chen could understand how these players felt.
As an online ga of the century, New World had indeed carried too much.
It was even the youth of a generation!
In the end, it stopped just like that…
Lin Chen could not help but smile bitterly when he thought about how many people had cursed New World in the past and sold their accounts, himself included. Now that he had been reborn and knew why New World had stopped service, his ntality was naturally different.
All Lin Chen had now was a relaxed attitude.
Lin Chen, who was in a good mood, thought about it and decided to persuade others.
Even if one or two people were persuaded to keep their accounts, when the ga invaded reality in the future, humans would have more power to resist, right?
Hence, Lin Chen posted a thread.
[To be honest, a big company like New World has been operating for 20 years. I don’t believe it if you say that the server has stopped. I suggest that everyone not believe it. Perhaps they encountered so technical malfunctions. Perhaps they will overco the malfunctions in the next half a month and can start the server again!]
Lin Chen ant well.
However, the players were on the verge of a ntal breakdown.
Not only did his post not receive any support from others, but in less than ten minutes, more than 100,000 rotten eggs were thrown his way. There were even all kinds of curses below…
“This dog head is a businessman, right? Is he afraid of bankruptcy?”
“Hehe, there’s already more than one rchant account suggesting that everyone not panic and delete their accounts. Now, there’s another one?”
“What bullshit technical malfunction. It’s been twenty years. Has there ever been a malfunction in New World?”
“Let say sothing. The account is indeed everyone’s own hard work, but if they don’t destroy their own hard work with their own hands, are they going to donate them to the higher-ups and lousy planners of New World?”
“…”
Lin Chen was speechless after being flad.
Fine!
His kindness had been treated as ill-intentioned.
Then, he could not be bothered to care about these people. Lin Chen began to pay attention to the trading posts on the forum.
[I’m selling. 100 million gold coins = 100,000. I want it gone fast!]
[10,000,000 gold coins for 10,000. Don’t miss it!]
[Divine Windchaser Deer, a rare mount, selling for just 300…]
[…]
Good lord, he did not expect the price of goods in the ga to fall so quickly!
One had to know that as the online ga of the century, the gold coins in New World had always been valued at 1:1 with real life currency.
But now?
100 million gold coins was only worth 100,000!
From one to one, it had fallen to a thousand to one!
It would probably continue to fall!
In addition, Lin Chen rembered that the Divine Windchaser Deer was a rare mount exclusive to Priests. It was not cheap. In the past, each mount cost tens of thousands, but now it was sold for 300?
Buy!
He had to buy it!
However, there was no hurry now.
Lin Chen knew that prices would continue to fall in the future.
In particular, when the confirmation of New World’s ending of service announcent was released tomorrow, and the last expansion pack was released, the news of New World’s end would be completely set in stone. The prices would fall sharply even more!
At that ti, Lin Chen would be able to get the best prices.
Moreover, Lin Chen did not have much money on hand.
His parents were gone, and he was still studying in university. He didn’t have a job yet, and his food and necessities ca from the pension left behind by his parents. The only thing that was most valuable was the house that his family had left for him…
Lin Chen continued to browse through the posts, and his eyes lit up.
[God of Magic’s Hurricane Divine Staff 12, max-level divine artifact, unique in the entire server, sold for 600,000!]
‘Good God!’
This was a max-level Mage Divine Equipnt Set. Soone was selling it?
Moreover, it was already 12!
Lin Chen was also a Mage.
He really wanted to buy it.
‘But…’
Six hundred thousand?
It was too expensive!
‘I can’t afford it!’
“Fuck, what are you thinking about?”
Lin Chen gritted his teeth and slamd the table angrily. “I’ll sell the house tomorrow. The ga is invading reality anyway. It’s about to be the end of the world!”
