Doomsday is Online - Chapter 1

February 28, 2023Ai Hrist

In the quiet room, only the air conditioner was working silently. A girl was sitting on the computer chair and looking at the computer with her chin resting on her palm. Her face was pretty. Her round almond eyes were staring at the screen. She has been playing this game for two years now.

Thinking of this cheating game, she stroked the ponytail that she tied up casually. In fact, this was a large-scale krypton gold dress-up game.

At this moment, there were still people in the game lobby complaining about the lottery draw and magic equipment synthesis.

[This game is getting worse and worse. I didn’t get a single piece of equipment or magic set even after spending 10,000 soft sister coins. Bah! I quit!]

[Who said no? Back then it was called the most romantic dating game, but I think it’s the most money-swindling game.]

[I suspect that this game is about to close down, so they take advantage of it to make a fortune. Anyway, I decided to quit the game and stop fighting!]

There were too many players like this, and there were more girls. In the past two years, more and more players have retired, making the game with few players colder and colder.

In fact, this game was quite weird. Everyone who enters the game clicked an advertisement on the computer and the game was downloaded automatically. At that time, many people thought it was a new virus, after all, all kinds of anti-virus software don’t work on it. Fortunately, the game was displayed in the end.

This matter has been posted on various forums. It was strange that the popularity was high but not much was mentioned in reality.

Some of them registered from the game to take a look when they saw it, while others uninstalled it directly.

Later, good-looking equipment had to be bought with krypton gold to kill a group of players, and now it was getting more and more expensive. Even some wealthy players can’t stand it.

After one year, more than half of the players quit the game, and the game channel was very deserted. The people who stayed behind were probably girls with a lot of money and free time.

After two years, the game has been updated with what was said to be the last magic suit set, but there was no announcement as to how it will be used later.

So there was speculation that the game was trying to earn money and then run away. However, there were still a very small number of players who say that they were not short of money. They want to get the set of equipment and see what happens next.

Unfortunately, it was very difficult to get the final top-quality magic set. Some spent tens of thousand of krypton gold, but they still didn’t receive any item.

When the girl saw the notification in the game hall, she went out of the hall and entered Lucky City to continue synthesizing the magic suit. She was only missing one flash of the wing of the collectibles. In the Lucky City announcement, there was only one player’s name displayed and that was her name. She got magic shoes.

The girl spent a lot of money buying coupons to complete the magic set. After choosing dozens of high-level composite equipment, the girl clicked the synthesized button. The interface flashed brightly. After the dazzling light dissipated, it was a flash of the wing. She succeeded!

[Announcement: Congratulations to the player Lu Jiu for obtaining the complete Fallen God’s Punishment Magic Set. The game will close after 60 seconds. Players are requested to use the game equipment reasonably and do everything possible to survive.]

When this announcement came out, the only remaining players in the lobby were at a loss.

[What the hell? Did it become a survival game after two years?]

[Why do you want to close the game suddenly? Sure enough, you want to run away after making money!]

The players were still fighting fiercely against the game, but unfortunately, the countdown was merciless. The game automatically exited and was uninstalled after it reached zero. This operation stunned the players.

The game company ran away, so the game was automatically uninstalled, damn it!

Even if they have a lot of money, but the krypton gold money was really something. It was amazing that it closed after leaving such a sentence.

The girl frowned and looked at the computer. She didn’t put on the equipment in the end, but it doesn’t matter. This game has been with her for a long time, maybe it was time for her to come out.

The girl’s name was Lu Jiu. She just turned 20 years old. Both of her parents died when she was 18 years old. Because she was an adult, she doesn’t need so-called relatives to help manage the inheritance. Her relatives didn’t give up. They keep playing the love card and try to keep Lu Jiu in their own home to get some benefits.

However, the sudden death of her parents changed her personality a lot. She usually doesn’t like to talk, and she doesn’t have much interest in the class. At that time, she suddenly saw this game and clicked in. As a result, she played for two years.

Two years have passed, and she has been avoiding those relatives to let those people rest their minds.

Lu Jiu has spent millions of dollars on the game in the past two years. But still, the rest of the money was enough for her to live comfortably for the rest of her life. The inheritance was managed by professionals, and there were huge dividends every year.

Lu Jiu opened the door and was greeted by scorching hot air in the living room. Not only was it hot, but the oxygen seemed to be evaporating. She held her breath and opened the refrigerator, took out an iced drink, and went back to her room to watch variety shows.

It was the month of May, and she doesn’t know what happened this year, the weather was as hot as midsummer.

But the whole world was still lively, just like in the past.

00:00 AM

[Ding–]

“Do you agree to convert the remaining assets into gold coins?”

“If there is no response for 5 seconds, the player will automatically be rejected.”

Hearing this voice, Lu Jiu was a little confused, but she still nodded and continued to sleep after nodding.

“Player Lu Jiu agrees to the exchange, and the exchange is successful! You can check it in the game backpack by yourself.”

After that, the room fell into the silence before.

Lu Jiu was woken up by the heat. After pushing off the blindfold, she could feel the bright heat of the sun through the curtains. She was covered in sweat.

“What happened?”

She specially chose a high-end residential area to live in. It stands to reason that even if there was a power outage, there should be a backup generator for the power supply, and they will be notified in advance if there will be a power outage. Lu Jiu was full of anger in such a hot room.

He was about to find his mobile phone to call the property manager, but after searching the entire bed, he couldn’t find the mobile phone. Her other two mobile phones were also missing. Lu Jiu also realized that her computer was gone.

“Did a thief come into the house?” She can’t help but ask such a question.

She wanted to open the door to look over at the living room, but immediately there was a screen-like thing in front of her, but it was transparent and there were words on it.

【Wooden door】

(Made by aborigines)

Defense: 0

What the hell? It was made by aborigines, and it has 0 defense. Wasn’t this like in the game?

Lu Jiu was full of doubts, but she still looked at the living room, and then found that the TV refrigerator was gone, but the food in the refrigerator was on the floor.

This was strange, stealing the TV and the refrigerator, but didn’t steal everything inside the refrigerator and neatly placing them on the side.

However, the original frozen things have been thawed because there was no refrigerator for fresh-keeping. The original area of the refrigerator was full of water, and it should have evaporated a lot from the traces.

She looked suspiciously at the door of the room she touched before, and continued to put her hand on it. Unbelievably, she saw the same message.

“Could it be that I cross into the game world, and I have to build things one by one?”

But no matter how she looked around, this was her house. Except for the wooden door and the missing electrical appliances, there seems to be nothing unusual.

She has no choice but to go out and have a look. If it was a game world, it was impossible to restore the whole world one by one.

Lu Jiu lives on the top floor. When she came out and saw the elevator, she was relieved, but when she pressed it, there was no movement. She remembered that was a power outage now.

She lived on the 16th floor. It was so hot now, and it will be even hotter if she climb down like this. She will probably be exhausted and paralyzed when she comes up again. She can only go to her balcony to look outside.

When touching the french window, that interface appeared again.

【Glass window】

(Made by aborigines)

Defense: 0

Yes, it was 0 again. Does this mean it was defenseless?

Fortunately, she saw other people on the balcony. Many people gathered not far from her downstairs, and she didn’t know what to say. After all, she couldn’t hear them on the 16th floor.

Short Story:

[Player]: Do you think our money just fall from the sky?!

[Krypton money cheating game]: That’s right, look at Lu Jiu.

[Lu Jiu]: I’m not, it’s not like that, I just inherited tens of millions of inheritance
