Chapter 1 – Roommate's online girlfriend
...
A mechanical voice echoed in He Gu's mind, and he struggled to open his eyes.
"Am I... chosen by the world of
Three years ago, descended upon Blue Star.
Every once in a while, the world of select a group of people to enter. These chosen individuals would represent their own countries and face the challenges of the world of
If they failed the challenge, something eerie would happen to the country they represented.
And every action of the chosen individuals in the world of be broadcasted live to the global audience.
In the past three years, He Gu had watched too many live broadcasts of others in the world of , and had fantasized countless times about what would happen if he was chosen.
Therefore, He Gu remained calm at this moment and quickly calmed his emotions.
At this moment, the mechanical voice sounded in He Gu's mind again:
Every person chosen to enter the world of for the first time can randomly draw a talent.
The voice sounded in his mind again, as if urging He Gu.
He Gu silently thought in his mind, "Draw."
Upon hearing this voice, He Gu was stunned for a moment, then revealed a delighted smile.
In the world of , information was the most important thing.
Many times, an inconspicuous piece of information could determine life or death!
Hidden messages were often the key clues to clearing the game!
The value of this talent was self-evident!
It should be noted that in the past three years, most of the chosen individuals had only drawn talents below the C level, and the effects were quite mediocre.
For example, the most frequently drawn talent was a D-level talent: , which increased physical fitness and reaction speed by 5% when facing danger.
The highest-level talent that He Gu had seen so far was an S-level talent drawn by a foreigner last year: , which granted immunity to one strange attack per instance.
As for an SSS-level talent, He Gu was likely the first in the world!
After drawing the talent, He Gu felt much more energetic.
He Gu sat up and realized that he was lying on the upper bunk of a bunk bed.
This was a room of about ten square meters, with four bunk beds. Except for the bedding on the upper bunk where He Gu was lying and the bedding on the lower bunk opposite, the other beds were empty.
Just then, a massive wave of memories rushed into He Gu's mind.
It took He Gu a few minutes to digest this wave of memories.
In his memories, he was a college student about to be assigned to an internship at a factory.
Most of his classmates had already obtained their internship placements and left the school. Only He Gu and a classmate named Zhang Chao were still waiting for their assignments.
Zhang Chao was currently He Gu's only roommate.
He Gu stood up and stretched after getting off the upper bunk.
As soon as he landed, a hoarse voice of a male duck sounded from the side, startling He Gu.
He Gu turned around and saw a birdcage hanging under his bed, with a pure white parrot inside.
At this moment, the parrot was flapping its wings and continuously shouting in a hoarse voice,
The urgent and hoarse voice of the male duck made He Gu feel a bit annoyed and anxious.
According to his memories, this parrot was collectively raised by their dormitory and had always been quiet. He didn't know what had gotten into it today.
Since He Gu hadn't even seen the rules yet, he naturally didn't dare to act rashly. After all, any careless action in the world of could cost him his life.
***
The parrot shouted dozens of times before finally quieting down.
He Gu ignored the parrot and stood in place, looking around.
He hadn't seen the rules of this instance yet, and the rules in the world of could appear in any form from anywhere.
Helplessly, He Gu searched the dormitory but couldn't find anything.
Just then, the dormitory door was suddenly pushed open.
It was He Gu's roommate, Zhang Chao, who had returned.
Behind Zhang Chao, there was a thin figure wearing a duckbill cap and a mask, wearing an obviously ill-fitting coat, wrapped up tightly, and dragging a pink suitcase.
Just as He Gu was curious about why Zhang Chao's friend was using such a girly suitcase, Zhang Chao suddenly hugged He Gu's shoulder mysteriously. "Brother Gu, come out with me."
While speaking, Zhang Chao had already led He Gu to the other end of the corridor and lowered his voice, "Something happened at my home, and I have to go back immediately. I've already asked for leave from the school."
He Gu was puzzled,
Zhang Chao pulled He Gu to the outside of the dormitory while closing the door.
He Gu remained cautious in his heart, after all, this was the world of , and he hadn't even seen the rules yet.
A quick look at " will leave you more fulfilled.
Zhang Chao brought He Gu to the other end of the corridor and whispered, "Something happened at my home, and I have to go back immediately. I've already asked for leave from the school."
He Gu was puzzled, Zhang Chao glanced towards the direction of his dormitory, then added, "As you can see, I just brought a friend back. He has nowhere to go for now, so he'll have to stay with me for a few days."
"I might not be back until next week, so could you take care of him for me while I'm gone?"
Upon hearing this, He Gu felt an urge to curse.
It was already hard enough to survive in this world of strange tales, and now he was bringing a stranger, an NPC, back!?
However, before He Gu could say anything, Zhang Chao hurriedly stuffed an envelope into his hand. "There's two thousand yuan in here. It should cover both of your expenses for a while!"
With that, Zhang Chao rushed downstairs, leaving He Gu alone, his mind in a whirl.
" Rushing off to death?"
He Gu grumbled discontentedly, then reluctantly turned to head back to his dormitory.
When he reached the door of his dormitory, He Gu opened the thick envelope in his hand and took a look. As expected, it was filled with a stack of red bills.
Wait... there seemed to be a note as well?
He Gu took out the note and unfolded it:
At the bottom, there was a line of red text that only He Gu could see:
Hidden information: Please protect the parrot. If the parrot dies, please leave the school within 24 hours!
...
Upon reading the contents, He Gu was stunned on the spot.
Were these the rules for this strange tale instance!?
But who was Little Yin!?
The next moment, a mechanical voice echoed in He Gu's mind: seaʀᴄh thё Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
He Gu:???
Could it be...
The next moment, He Gu opened the door to his dormitory, only to see a pair of long legs clad in black stockings swinging on Zhang Chao's bed...
