Chapter 41: Must Secure the Quota!
【Shattered Sect V: Hello everyone, I’ve felt everyone’s enthusiasm and specially registered a Weibo account to announce the good news.
Shattered Sect will release another 20 non-wipe test quotas after 12 AM tonight. First come, first served.
Yunzhou Continent, start your Second Life.
This game does not allow resurrection, players please cherish your lives. 】
Riding this wave of popularity, after registering a Weibo account, curious netizens quickly started searching.
Seeing that quotas were being released, everyone expressed their opinions.
【Only 20 quotas? And first come, first served? Is that really something an official like you would say? 】
【LOL, do you really think your game is that popular? I can see the hype intention from across the screen. 】
【Can’t I just go through the back door? I can pay for it. 】
【Why no resurrection mechanism? Who would play a game without resurrection? 】
【Gotta say, this hype marketing is indeed amazing. 1 million for this much attention, the game’s PR team will be Big Shots wherever they go in the future. 】
【Forget about buying accounts, this game requires information about your ancestors to fill out the recruitment qualification, plus facial and ID verification, and IP locks. Even scalpers can’t get them, so selling accounts is impossible. 】
【What? You’re not giving me a quota? LOL, I didn’t really want it that badly. You’re really not giving it to me? Funny, Shattered Sect, you’re really putting on airs. 】
…
“Tianya, you’re here?”
Inside a villa, a beautiful woman looked at the handsome young man before her with a troubled expression: “Your cousin is in his room drawing.”
“I have something urgent to discuss with him.” Jiang Tianya’s face showed anxiety: “Aunt, it’s really important, I need to tell him.”
The aunt’s face turned sad: “Tianya, he doesn’t like anyone to disturb him when he’s drawing, please don’t go, okay? Just consider it my plea, you know your cousin can’t handle any stimulation since the accident. He was only just saved at the hospital last time, so please don’t go…”
“Aunt, I know, but this time I might have a way to save him. Don’t you want him to live well too?”
The aunt was stunned by his words: “You… Tianya, don’t joke around.”
Jiang Tianya said seriously and earnestly: “Aunt, just trust me this once. I won’t joke about my cousin’s situation, I’ll go talk to him myself.”
The aunt fell silent.
Tears were already welling up in her eyes. After a long while, she finally moved aside.
Jiang Tianya immediately entered the house.
In the sun-drenched art studio, a pile of scribbled and messy drawings were scattered about.
Some of the drawings were exquisite, while others were messy, with colors predominantly black and blood red, indicating the artist’s extremely unstable mental state.
As Jiang Tianya entered, the young man sitting in the studio froze.
Then, a furious voice came: “Get out!”
“It’s me.” After saying this, Jiang Tianya entered and observed the drawings filling the room before saying, “Xue Yao, I have something to tell you.”
Liang Xueyao heard Jiang Tianya’s voice and was also annoyed: “What is it, brother?”
“If I told you there was a way for you to move like a normal person, would you be willing to try?”
Liang Xueyao suddenly turned his head: “What are you talking about?”
As he turned, his leg shape appeared strange.
His body was seated, but from the knee down, one leg had only an empty pant leg.
He was disabled.
Jiang Tianya let out a breath, squatted down, and gently touched Liang Xueyao’s head to help him relax: “I know you’re under a lot of psychological pressure, and your current life is a far cry from what it was before. But I promise, you will enjoy the fun of a new life again. It will exceed your imagination, and even subvert the worldview of your previous twenty-plus years of life, provided you are lucky enough.”
Liang Xueyao’s eyes showed disbelief: “Cousin, what are you talking about?”
Jiang Tianya said: “Listen to me, look at the trending topics on Weibo. There’s a game on the market, a game you’ve absolutely never seen before.”
He explained everything about Shattered Sect and summarized: “You know I’ve never lied to you, and I’m not crazy. That world is truly real, so real it doesn’t feel like a game world. You can be a normal person in there and enjoy your Second Life.”
Liang Xueyao let out a mocking scoff: “Brother, I think you’ve really gone mad. Stop joking.”
“I’m not joking!” Jiang Tianya’s expression was serious: “Do you know why I’m telling you this? It’s not just about your leg, but also because the person you saved is from the military. You owe him a life-saving debt. If you tell him about this, you can connect with the country.”
“I suspect that game is abnormally real, more than just a game. Currently, game quotas can only be obtained by rushing. I want the country to investigate the secret of that game. Our Sect Master’s name is Song Jiulai. This game didn’t appear in any other country but first appeared in our Huaxia, there must be a reason. We must seize the initiative, do you understand?”
“You know my family situation. I can’t contact people from the country without going through my father. My father would suspect I’ve gone mad and stop me from playing this game. So I can’t tell anyone else. People who haven’t experienced it themselves won’t believe it. I’ve already entered the game, and now I need you to enter. Once you’re in, you can accompany me.”
Liang Xueyao was stunned.
Because this matter was beyond his imagination, his usual temper was forgotten in his shock.
“The game quotas will be released at 12 AM tonight. I’ll tell you all the recruitment information I filled out. You just need to copy and paste your identity information and fill it in. Grab it as quickly as possible. I’ve already tried, no matter what method, I can’t break through this game website, and I can’t use cheats. Ordinary game companies can’t achieve this. I’m afraid other players will also tell their families. There are only 20 quotas, and I don’t know how many people will be competing, so you have to be fast.”
“Once this game explodes, the subsequent quotas will be for hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions of players. You can’t imagine the intensity. Now is the best opportunity. Although 20 is few, the number of people competing won’t be that high.”
Jiang Tianya still wasn’t at ease: “I’ll stay here with you tonight.”
Liang Xueyao: “…”
He suspected his brother had gone mad, even more so than himself, but he didn’t dare to say it.
As a result, his temper, which had been flaring up due to his leg injury, was forcibly suppressed.
“Oh…”
Jiang Tianya was right. As soon as the 20 quotas were released, all the other 49 players thought of telling their families.
If you have the chance to play Second Life and don’t, you’ll be so angry in your grave that you’ll rise from the dead at midnight.
I will take leave and post a notice in the comment section in advance. If there’s no update after midnight, check the comment section. Look for the latest comment, I will post the date.
