QT: Capture The Villain's Love - Chapter 247: A Gaming World!
Tyler didn’t know that there would be changes this time, and the restrictions on the character mode would be turned off. This meant that even if the male lead thought of himself as the character, he wouldn’t follow the same route as the previous one. For instance, his senior in the last world had married the female lead because of the character mode, and his temperament also remained the same as the original male lead until the very end.
In short, his lover was an uptight Emperor who put forth his citizens before anything else. But this time, the male lead would be the same as Tyler had known throughout the previous worlds with different memories. But at this time, Tyler had no idea that the changes this time would align with his goal.
So when he opened his eyes after entering the world and looked around, he found himself in a modern-looking house with a big screen attached to the wall and a holographic keyboard image on the table before him. Besides the keyboard, he could see wireless VR glasses that covered his entire head. The bed and other things looked pretty standard at this time. If it weren’t for the futuristic computer on the table, he wouldn’t have considered the possibility of this world being a futuristic world filled with magical beasts.
As per his experience, he knew that there were only two futuristic worlds: one with a western attitude and another with an Asian outlook. The latter would either have an ABO world mixed with futuristic backgrounds filled with zergs, or it could be a beast world filled with different kinds of species.
But this world seemed a little different. Tyler tilted his head and thought for a moment before opening the system. It didn’t matter whether he could understand this world or not. He could just read the basic information prepared by the system to get to know more about it.
When he read the first paragraph after opening the system interface, he realized that it was instead a Japanese world filled with futuristic technology, year 3012. At this time, technology had soared to the point that no one could live their lives without it. Even though the bed and other things, even the cabinets inside the room, looked modern, technological aspects had changed a lot.
But before he could continue reading the information, he heard the door opening. His body stiffened as he paused and laid on the bed, pretending to be asleep. He still didn’t know his character description yet. So he didn’t want to arouse anyone’s suspicion.
He suddenly heard someone’s footsteps as they came closer and closer until someone’s silhouette appeared on his face. Tyler held his breath and parted his lips slightly as he would do when he would be in a deep sleep. Just then, the person raised his hand, and his fingers caressed Tyler’s slightly parted lips.
Tyler was shocked. He immediately wanted to open his eyes and kick the person’s hands away, but he forced himself to calm down.
It wasn’t the time yet. He would have to wait until he read the story to find out who this man was! He acted like he was sleeping, but he didn’t know that the other person standing before him would simply end up being a pervert!
Thankfully, the person standing beside his bed didn’t mean to do anything more. He walked out of the room before closing the door behind him. Tyler instantly locked the door from the inside before heaving a sigh of relief. Then he frowned. What was up with this world?! The characters didn’t even let him finish reading the storyline before attacking him like this.
A trace of irritation appeared on his face as he opened the system again to read the storyline.
[Welcome to the storyline ‘The League of Light!’
This world centered around a game called ‘The League of Light’ filled with different races. It was incredibly unique because you could not only choose the race but also grow your power level by killing demons and beasts. The higher your level would be, the more the possibility to become powerful. But killing monsters wasn’t the only solution. The players could also use the PK method to kill another player and suck their power. They could also use a treasure hunt to find more treasure to get to the top.
Such a game had allured many players a decade ago, and soon, this game became a norm and the primary source of income for many citizens. The players wouldn’t go to the office after graduating from the colleges. They would instead find temporary jobs, collect money, and purchase the VR system to play this thing. After that, they would make money by selling weapons and power stones to other players.]
Tyler raised his brows. Playing games to earn money? This seemed new. He continued reading.
[But there was also another way to earn money: to join the league competition. The higher the level a player could achieve, the more money they would get. The topmost players would become celebrities in the world. It even seemed like this game had replaced the movies and anime.
There were also other enjoyable things in this game. For instance, the player could enter different worlds and play storylines of a certain race, just like the modern games. It would just be that they would instead play using a VR headset, and it could also let the players get more power points. But there was only one way to win: reach the highest level of power that was available.
The protagonist of this world was one such topmost player with the highest point, but no one had seen his real face. This world was unique and allowed the players to hide their real identity and even attain fame. So almost every one of them would use a pen name to create a different world for them.]
Tyler looked at this paragraph with a frown. If no one knew who the male lead was, then how would he be able to find his lover?! He suddenly felt like this world was meant to create another pit for him!
[It was just that not all of them could hide their faces. For instance, there were multiple sports companies that hired players to help them rise to the top and earn a certain percentage from the winning prize. In exchange, they would also allow the players to learn from professionals and build a team that could grow faster. The male lead of this world, however, hadn’t joined anyone, and no one knew whether this person was a single-player or someone from another company.
But one thing was clear: no matter how much they all trained, they couldn’t bypass this topmost player even in their dreams!
One of the villains-]
Tyler’s eyes widened after reading this. What did it mean: one of the villains?! There was more than one villain in this world?! He suppressed his irritation and continued reading.
[One of the villains of this world was one such player who had recently joined a team, and he wanted to become another topmost player similar to the male lead. He had paid too much money to become a professional esports player, but his skills were just too ordinary. No matter how much he tried, he wasn’t able to learn at all!
After this, other villains also entered the scene. They were all acting as professional players under group B in the esports company Shinji. This group contained seven players of the topmost races. There was also a group A, but they were almost invisible and busy with their coach, competing with top players.
There was a reason why Tyler called the group B villains. They were the prominent people who forced the protagonist to appear again within the game. These people created many pits for the ML that eventually led everyone to believe that ML wasn’t a good person. Initially, the ML, after achieving the topmost position at the end of the previous year, disappeared from the game entirely.
But the villains forced him to appear, and not only that, they even spread rumors about him across the platform that the male lead had purchased the top level. Some of them even created ‘fake evidence’ to prove this aspect. So even though the ML had enough skills, people still doubted and cursed him. So the ML appeared and asked Group B for a PK.
The player from group B boasted, and even the villain was involved in this. But when they actually played against that lonesome person, they found out what a big mistake they had made. After being beaten into a pulp, they begged the ML not to suck away their powers, but the man didn’t listen. He wanted to leave an example so that others wouldn’t follow group B’s example. So he sucked away one level and left just like that.
It should be noted that in this world, the competition this world was held against groups and single players separately, and many esports companies tried to recruit the ML. Still, that person never responded until he was forced to come out by the villains. He alone took the throne in the game, and the top players, who tried to go against this person, also failed. So now, when they saw this God again after so many months, they were slightly glad that this group of villains were shrewd. At least they forced the lion out of his den.]
After reading all of these things, Tyler came to one conclusion: the system wanted revenge against him! This time, neither did he know who his senior was nor could his lover find him! Even if that person still had his memories, it would still be challenging! And how would he even be able to see his lover? The ML of this world was also set on not wanting to appear until the villains forced him!
He knew that he wanted to destroy the world arcs by not following them correctly. And this time, the difficulty level had increased ten-fold! This time, there were more villains. So he would have to scheme for an entire group! And if he didn’t follow the storyline, it would be complicated to see his senior! But if he continued to follow the arcs properly, he wouldn’t be able to find his lover anymore!
Tyler’s expressions went extremely dark after thinking of this, but he suppressed his emotions. He still hadn’t read the entire story, and he was particularly concerned about the person who entered the room and touched his lips like that.
Who could it be?
