26 Chapter 26: Bracelet Distribution
Translator: 549690339
This time, the hotel manager personally greeted them with a few waiters.
To Su Nan’s surprise, the other party was a woman.
The woman dressed in a light blue dress, with long hair draped over her shoulders, had an elegant demeanor and was even better than many popular stars.
“It’s actually her?” Seeing the woman, Wang Chong was very surprised, and there was even more joy in his eyes, as if he had seen a goddess.
“You know her?” Su Nan was puzzled.
Wang Chong looked at Su Nan weirdly and said, “Brother Nan, you don’t even know her? She’s the daughter of the boss of our hotel!”
Upon hearing this, Su Nan remembered something and suddenly said, “Oh, so she’s that Bai Mengmeng?”
He learned about the name Bai Mengmeng from Wang Chong.
As soon as he entered the hotel, this guy inquired about the hotel’s background.
When he learned that the hotel’s boss had an unmarried daughter who was extremely beautiful, he was determined to marry a rich and beautiful woman and reach the peak of life.
Unfortunately, Bai Mengmeng had never been to the hotel, so Wang Chong often sighed that he had no opportunity.
“No wonder they’re booking an entire floor of rooms – it’s their own hotel, of course, they can use it as they please.” Su Nan suddenly realized.
The hotel he was staying at belonged to a large company called Jianghua Group.
This company was a giant enterprise in Donglin City, involving not only manufacturing, transportation, and tourism but also finance, real estate, and other industries, with a total market value of forty to fifty billion.
And the boss of Jianghua Group was Bai Mengmeng’s father.
Wang Chong watched Bai Mengmeng enter the elevator and muttered, “I didn’t expect her to be the one setting up the game studio. Brother Nan, I feel like my chance has arrived!”
Then he hurriedly said, “No, I have to find out which game Bai Mengmeng plays. Maybe I can join her studio too, and then wouldn’t I be just one step away from marrying a rich and beautiful woman?”
“Good luck with that.” Su Nan laughed.
Night falls.
After finishing work for the day, Su Nan returned home.
He still had one more opportunity for foreknowledge today, and he naturally wouldn’t waste it.
He logged into the game and started the foreknowledge right away.
A minute later, he quit the game – no doubt, he had failed again.
Glancing at the time, it was only nine o’clock. With nothing to do, he opened the “Group Monster Chat Group” set up by Zhou Cheng.
Due to the upcoming public beta test of the game, the players in the group were extremely active, all discussing information related to the public test.
The most discussed question was in what form the game bracelets would be distributed!
“Today is already the second day. According to the game notice, the game bracelets will be distributed to players worldwide who meet the qualifications tomorrow.”
“The problem is, we can’t even find the game company that made this game right now. Will the game bracelets really be sent out? Could this public test announcement be fake?”
“Maybe it’s really like what the group owner said, this game is not an ordinary game at all. Otherwise, how could there be no information about game bracelets until now? And you can’t buy this game’s bracelet in the market either.”
Everyone was curious. Even though Zhou Cheng had previously revealed the unusual nature of the game, many players still had doubts about the game.
Even those who chose to believe were not fully convinced, still showing skepticism.
When the game announcement previously mentioned “detected players losing control,” they thought it was a prank by the game’s officials.
So much so that many people suspected the so-called public beta test was fake, otherwise, there was no explanation for the absence of even a game official website.
Su Nan was also curious about how the game bracelets would be distributed.
But what he was more curious about was who made this game and what the purpose was.
Also, what was the identity of the woman who gave him the bracelet back then?
Why would his own bracelet possess talents that others didn’t have?
“If the game bracelets are really going to be distributed tomorrow, maybe I can take this opportunity to find out who made the game.”
Tonight, there is only one day left until the game’s public test. There has been no discussion about the game in reality.
This shows that knowledge of the Demon World game is still limited to a few people.
One million places, that’s one million game bracelets. With such a huge number, relevant information about the game’s creators could surely be found, unless those bracelets could appear out of thin air in the hands of the players.
Of course, Su Nan had no doubt that the game’s creators had the ability to make those bracelets appear out of nowhere.
“Everything will be clear tomorrow!”
Time passes.
Midnight quietly came, and the daily tasks were refreshed in the game.
Su Nan once again logged into the game.
Just like yesterday, there were two three-star tasks and one two-star task today.
The difference from yesterday was that, while he could complete one task yesterday, it was highly likely that he wouldn’t be able to finish any of them today.
“I’ll try foreknowledge once now, and if it doesn’t work, I’ll try again tomorrow morning, and save the remaining two attempts for after work tomorrow.”
If possible, he would like to foresee 24 hours a day, but that clearly couldn’t happen.
He started the foreknowledge, and after just a few lines of text were refreshed, it ended with his sixth death.
“Piece of trash game!”
“Time for sleep.”
…
Today is the final day of the game’s public beta test countdown.
Early Morning.
Su Nan was awakened by the alarm clock.
He habitually picked up his phone and looked at it. Instantly, he jolted wide awake.
The Group Monster Chat Group had already blown up.
It’s because the game bracelets for the Demon World have really been distributed!
“It appears out of thin air! The game bracelets actually appeared out of thin air! There are no signs at all!”
“Oh my God! Who can tell me how this is done? Is it extraterrestrial civilization?”
“It’s true, what the group owner said is true, the world in this game is absolutely real.”
…
“Did it really appear out of thin air?”
Even though he had already guessed that this possibility would arise, when it really happened, Su Nan was still shocked.
He could not imagine what this meant.
Perhaps, as other players speculated, it is indeed an alien civilization controlling all of this.
Of course, Su Nan would rather believe that all of this is related to the Demon World in the game.
Because the powerful people in the game obviously knew that players would appear.
Looking at the headlines of major platforms, without exception, they are all about the appearance of game bracelets.
It is impossible to verify who first discovered the bracelet, but it can be confirmed that the game bracelets appeared out of thin air at 5 AM.
It seemed like they had been placed there in advance by someone and appeared at a specific time without a trace.
At first, many people thought it was a prank, but as more and more bracelets appeared, everyone finally realized that something was wrong.
Soon, with the news breaking that the protagonist of the Bearman incident in Donglin City the day before was actually a player from the Demon World, everyone freaked out.
The subsequent developments were completely beyond imagination, with various tycoons making their moves, and massively buying up bracelets, causing the price of the game bracelets to soar.
Two hours have passed now, and the price of the game bracelets has been fried to millions per piece, and this price is increasing at an astonishing rate every minute.
At the first sign of the bracelets, the official side made a move.
They not only bought up game bracelets but also directly contacted the first batch of players.
“What are you guys going to do? The officials have called me and asked if I’m interested in joining them.”
“I got a call too, I agreed, and they said they’ll send someone to pick me up.”
“I don’t want to join the officials, I just want to be an individual player, free and unrestricted. But I don’t know how to refuse them? Guys, please help me figure out a way, I’m online waiting, in a hurry…”
In the Q group, many players have received an invitation from the officials.
Seeing this, Su Nan’s heart sank.
If other players could be found by the officials, he could be as well, and that’s not what he wanted to see right now.
Fortunately, it wasn’t long before some players discovered that the players approached by the officials had either posted or replied to messages in the forums.
“What’s meant to come will come eventually. If you can’t avoid it, then try to improve your strength as much as possible!”
Close the group chat.
Log in to the game and use a foreknowledge opportunity according to the plan.
As expected, he failed again.
He has only two foreknowledge opportunities today.
Linjiang Hotel.
Wang Chong is still shocked: “Brother Nan, there’s really a force beyond reality in this world, and it even exists in the form of a game.”
Then, he is annoyed: “I didn’t get a qualification for this public beta test. With the current price of bracelets, why would I still go to work if I managed to get a game bracelet!”
Su Nan comforted: “It’s said that this is only the first public beta of the game, and there will be opportunities in the future.”
Wang Chong cried: “Even if there are opportunities later, it won’t be so valuable. I’ve lost a hundred million, rounding off.”
Suddenly, he thought of something and said, “Right, Brother Nan, do you know that Miss Bai was one of the first players in the Demon World? She knew about the game’s public beta testing early on, and that’s why she spent a lot of money setting up the game studio.”
“Really?”
Su Nan pretended to be surprised: “No wonder she was willing to invest heavily in building a game studio, doesn’t that mean she’s also buying up game bracelets now?”
Wang Chong nodded: “I’ve heard that she started buying them as soon as the bracelets appeared and only spent a hundred million to buy 13 game bracelets. Now she’s looking for suitable members to use those bracelets.”
“Sure enough, being the daughter of the richest man in Donglin City means she’s really wealthy. She can easily afford a hundred million.” Su Nan sighed slightly.
According to the current price, buying 13 bracelets for a hundred million could indeed be considered cheap.
Looking at Wang Chong, Su Nan joked: “It seems that you not only lost a hundred million, but you also lost the opportunity to marry a rich and beautiful woman!”
If Wang Chong could get a game bracelet, he would have had the chance to get close to Bai Mengmeng, and he might even be able to join Bai Mengmeng’s game studio.
Now, there’s no chance.
“Who says it isn’t!” Wang Chong had an even bitter face, looking dejected.
The appearance of the Demon World game bracelets caused the entire world to boil.
Major conglomerates are eager to flex their muscles and ready to enter the game to show off.
All eyes are focused on this suddenly emerging game, and the world’s development is beginning to change subtly.
However, this change apparently cannot affect Su Nan’s peaceful life.
Eight o’clock at night.
After handing over to the night shift colleague, the first thing Su Nan did when he returned home was to log in to the game.
Today his third premonition had begun.
He thought it would be another failed premonition.
However, to his surprise, something unexpected happened.
