Closed Beta That Only I Played Chapter 103

Chapter 103: Unveiled 4th Virtual Reality (1)

The tallest building in Manhattan, New York, USA.

The Holdridge Group, which was one of the three major forces in the United States along with the US Governnt and the Shaipe Group was located there.

This financial behemoth encompassed several powerful families and financial giants such as Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs that had a long history dating from the founding of the United States, as well as Standard Oil founded by John D. Rockefeller who was known as the Oil King before the arrival of Exxon Mobil. In general, Holdridge was based in the east coast of the United States where they controlled money from its early days.

On the other hand, the Shaipe Group was a financial group composed of the newly rich who grew rapidly from the late 20th century, and were based in the western coast of the United States.

And the US Governnt was the third powerful group whose mbers did not belong to either Shaipe or Holdridge.

Anyway, Holdridge, one of the three powerful organizations that headed the United States, were currently holding an ergency eting outside their regular quarterly etings. The reason they convened this ti was because soone had finally achieved level 1200, and as a result, a very important secret was unveiled.

“Are you sure?”

“Yes,” replied Austin, the head of Holdridge’s intelligence departnt, standing up to respond to the question of one of Holdridge’s top five executives.

Then he opened his mouth while pointing at the beam projector installed on one wall.

“This is a video shot of that guy using the mory Bead.”

As he said that, the beam projector played a video of two n talking with each other.

“What’s his na and affiliation?”

“His na is Tylon Cole. He belongs to Team 3 of Holdridge’s 1st League.”

“When did he achieve level 1200?”

“He achieved it at 2:35am this morning.”

“Anything particular about his achievent?”

“Yes, we’ve found out where he used the coins. We also discovered what the actual realization of the 4th virtual reality in the real world beyond the 3rd virtual reality ans.”

“What does it an?”

Austin said, “Disclose the privilege of level 1200!”

[Congratulations on achieving level 1200!

-By reaching level 1200, you have been given the privilege of actualizing the capability of ‘Revival Legend’ in reality.

However, the following conditions are required to actualize it.

-By using coins, you can permanently actualize the capability of ‘Revival Legend’ in reality.

: From 0% to 10%, you need 1,000 coins per 1% actualization.

: From 11% to 20%, you need 2,000 coins per 1% actualization.

: From 21% to 30%, you need 3,000 coins per 1% actualization.

The man conducting the interview with Tylon Cole fell silent with a blank expression as did the other participants watching the video.

At that mont one of the five top executives of Holdridge opened his mouth in a low voice, “It finally showed up!”

“But that’s too much. How can it require 1,000 coins per 1% actualization? Moreover, the number of coins required is so big after 10%…”

Vten, the company that had the original technology for the VR device.

And that company was located in Arica.

Therefore, Arica was the first to know about the extraordinary event that Vten, which had been raking up a huge amount of money around the world from the royalties of its patents, disappeared overnight.

And it was Holdridge among the three most powerful US organizations that first discovered that the disappearance of Vten was related to the ga called ‘Revival Legend’.

More precisely, it was the financial officials of Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs that first discovered this. This was because Vten’s assets were enormous.

That was why Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, which were managing so of Vten’s assets, made every effort to find even the slightest evidence of the company’s mysterious disappearance. Maybe they could procure a huge amount of money that had lost its owner.

In fact, while they were searching, they actually discovered so things related to the ga ‘Revival Legend’.

“Did sothing about a coin exchange appear when one of our users hit level 1100?” another man among the top five executives asked.

Austin, the intelligence chief of Holdridge, who was chairing the eting, said, “I think so.”

Holdridge held an ergency eting like this even when soone belonging to their group reached level 1100 for the first ti among its users.

During that ti, another special event also occurred, naly, coin exchange.

In the first place, it was Holdridge, that first cleaned up the place where Vten disappeared, that found out that coins would be of great value in the future. And Holdridge had no intention of revealing this information. Honestly, they didn’t intend to release information about ‘Revival Legend’ either.

However, starting with the financial giants such as Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, they learned that it was almost impossible for them to handle this matter alone, so they began to join hands together which inevitably led to a loophole in their managent of intelligence and manpower.

No matter how tightly they managed their organization, it was natural for their mbers to have so friction because they ca from different organizations with a different culture.

So, Holdridge helplessly watched with regrets as so of their intelligence leaked out to the US Governnt, the Shaipe Group and other groups.

Anyway, Holdridge confird so things through the user who achieved level 1100.

[Congratulations on reaching level 1100!

-By achieving level 1100, you have acquired the ‘coin exchange’ trait that allows you to exchange coins with others.

However, you can only exchange coins with those who are level 1100 or higher and also possess the ‘coin exchange’ trait.

: When those who are level 1100 or higher hold each other’s hands, one of them can request the exchange of coins and if the other party accepts it, they can exchange coins.

: You have to pay the fee of 1 million golden rings per exchange of each coin.

: This fee is paid by the person who receives the coins, and golden rings are automatically deducted from the inventory. If there are less than 1 million golden rings in the inventory, the coin transaction will stop imdiately.

: The golden rings deducted as a fee permanently disappear.]

Typically, it was forbidden to trade coins.

In Holdridge’s eyes, such prohibition because of the exorbitant transaction fees.

If 1 million golden rings are required for each coin that is being traded, then 100 coins will require 100 million golden rings, and 1,000 coins will require a whopping 1 billion golden rings.

Moreover, it was difficult for Holdridge to easily exchange coins because the required golden rings completely disappeared in the na of the fees instead of being given to the other party as a reward. Moreover, all that was known about the coins was that they were extrely precious, but nobody knew how they were used.

But with the appearance of a user who was level 1200, Holdridge finally ca to discover for what purpose the coins were used.

It was literally huge because this involved the realization of the 4th virtual reality.

Of course it didn’t look easy because nobody could even imagine obtaining 1000 coins.

At that mont one of the top five executives asked, “By the way, this is not all, right?

They knew that coins were important, but this was the mont they confird it with their own eyes for the first ti.

So, the top five executives of Holdridge inevitably beca more impatient than anyone else because all of them were so old that nobody would think it strange at all if they died tomorrow.

That’s why they bet everything on the realization of the 4th VR.

“Sure, let play the video a little more.”

Since intelligence chief Austin knew what the executive’s question ant, he pointed to the beam projector again.

“Playing experintal videos 1-7.”

“Currently, Tylon Cole has 717 coins. In order for him to reach over 1000 coins, we used 285 million golden rings from Holdridge’s reserve.”

“Tylon Cole is currently 177 cm tall and weighs 98 kg, with a body fat percentage greater than 35%. Compared to a normal man in his mid-20s, his muscle strength value is 44, which places him below the 30th centile, and his grip strength is below the 30th centile for those who weigh 39kg, let alone those who are the average weight of 55kg.”

After that, the video featured details of Tylon Cole’s current health, endurance and current fitness level. And when that portion of the video was played, Austin, the intelligence chief, said, “Now let explain to you personally. Currently, Tylon Cole has accessed ‘Revival Legend’ and has 1,000 coins. As soon as we give him an order, he will use 1,000 coins right away.”

“Go ahead!”

“Yes, sir. Will do.”

It was an order from the top five executives.

As soon as they gave the order, Austin nodded at the man sitting on his right.

Then several people moved busily around.

And soon sobody’s voice ca out from the video.

“It’s , Tylon Cole. I’m using the 1,000 coins. Let use them now!”

Tylon Cole in the video shouted he would use the coins.

However, there was no significant change in his appearance.

And then he opened his mouth.

“Disclose the actualization of reality.”

[Tylon Cole’s actualization rate:.

-1/100.

-Coins are required for higher actualization.]

“Even though I saw an increase in 1% actualization, I could not feel any change inside the ga.”

As soon as Tylon Cole in the video said that he could not feel any change in the ga, one of the top five executives ordered him to log out because what they were mainly concerned about was not changes within the ga. Since the video was played in real-ti, the laboratory in New York where Tylon Cole was located soon appeared.

“Hum, it seems there is no change in his appearance.”
