The summer heat is unbearable, and temptation like this only stokes the fire inside—young men are easily impulsive, which is understandable.
A figure that’s a total turn-on！
Her simple spaghetti-strap dress reveals fair, bare shoulders; her miniskirt can’t quite hide a hint of spring color. Her curves sway with every step, treating the horny pack of guys behind her to a feast for the eyes. Even me, stuck near the back of the line, feel like I can catch a whiff of her rich, fragrant scent.
“Ah, Xiaoli, what are you doing here? Oh, sorry, I mistook you for someone else—but you really look like my girlfriend.”
“Miss, is this yours？”
“Miss, I really admire you—can we get to know each other？”
Watching this bold, exposed girl, I was already planning how to hit on her.
This girl was showing plenty of skin—just the way I like it, easier to score with her, I thought lustfully to myself.
Waiting is so boring—if I didn’t find something to do, with a line this long, I’d be dead before I even got to the front.
Three days from now is the public launch of Longfei Group’s new online game, *The King*, and everyone’s here to buy virtual helmets. Even though sales at the city’s helmet stores have been going on for three days, it’s still a madhouse—right now, there must be over a hundred people ahead of me, and a long line behind too. Plus, there are at least thirty helmet stores in this city, and every single one is just as packed.
If it weren’t for the line, I’d have already gone up and chatted up that hottie！ I was already fantasizing about some steamy time with her.
“Hey, what do you think you’re doing, cutting in line? Get to the back!” Some snot-nosed brat in yellow hair was not only trying to cut in but also blocking my view of the hottie—I wasn’t going to let that slide.
The yellow-haired kid turned around ready to snap back, but when he saw me glaring at him, standing my ground, and the whole line backing me up, he instantly lost his bravado and slunk off.
People like that only bully the weak and fear the strong. Good thing he scrammed fast—if he dared to talk back, buddy, you'd be headed to the hospital.
"Ah, uh..." I actually misjudged someone for once.
That strappy girl who pissed me off turned around at the noise behind her, almost giving me a heart attack. What a terrifying dinosaur. Too bad about that slender figure—thank goodness for that yellow-haired punk, or I'd have really fallen into that trap.
Time to scope out other beauties. Seriously, I almost gave up the whole forest for one tree.
What? You don't know about Longfei Group? You don't know the online game 'The King'? Oh my god, did you get struck by lightning and teleport here from ancient times? Or are you the legendary bookworm, buried in sages and deaf to the world?
News about Longfei Group and 'The King' is flying everywhere—the hype has already eclipsed this summer's heat.
'The King' is a virtual-tech online game launched by Longfei Group, jointly developed with national state-run research institutes over ten years. The technology is exclusive to Longfei Group and has the following features：
1. 'The King' is a game launched under state protection, with government support.
2. 'The King' is a virtual reality game, with simulation reaching over 80%, using advanced DNA control mode—one number per person.
3. The online game 'The King' breaks the traditional gaming model, controlled by a single mainframe 'Feitian'. Game development and control are all handled by 'Feitian', with no admins or GMs, eliminating any human interference and making hacks impossible.
4. 'The King' is a collaboration between Longfei Group and four major banks, enabling real-money and in-game currency exchange （to maintain game balance, this will open after one month）.
。。。。。。
In short, the online game 'The King' will become humanity's second world. In the game, anything is possible—as long as you have skill, as long as you work hard, and with a bit of luck, you can rise above the rest in 'The King', become a hero, become a king. That's why 'The King' sparked a frenzy as soon as it launched.
My name is Lin Feng. A year ago, I graduated from university and landed a decent job. I was full of passion and hope for the future, but around that time, I helplessly broke up with my true love, Xue'er. Since then, aside from this job, I've had no joy. Maybe working hard is the only way to forget the pain and endless longing in my heart.
After working for over half a year, I gradually started to see some results. The new job, new environment, new social circle, and new friends helped me slowly regain my outgoing personality and gave me some motivation again.
But three months ago, that chubby, pale, impotent old boss's wife ran off with some guy and all the money. That fat, impotent old man took a strong dislike to me, as if I had seduced his wife. He treated me like a thorn in his side, found some excuse, and fired me, leaving me an idle unemployed bum.
This incident didn't depress me, though—not even a bit of frustration. Instead, I went back to my old personality.
Thinking back to before I left the company, I mocked that impotent old man in front of everyone. Every word hit his faults and weaknesses, point for point, leaving him speechless—he could only stutter, "You... you..." until he passed out from a rush of blood to the head. It was truly exhilarating!
So here I am, jumping into the open beta of the online game <King>. In <King>, real money can be exchanged for in-game currency, which really grabbed my attention. Besides, I don't want to keep groveling to others or working for them.
Life is about having fun and enjoying yourself. No more being so tired and restrained.
"Miss, I'd like to buy one Platinum Virtual Helmet." Finally, it was my turn. I smiled at the beautiful salesgirl, but my eyes lecherously fixed on her bulging breasts.
So cute. I just wanted to squeeze them, I marveled inwardly.
"Sir, this is your helmet, 2000 yuan, please take it." The salesgirl was flustered by my lewd, bold gaze and initially wanted to lose her temper, but once she got a clear look at the man before her, a blush crept onto her face, her heart raced, and she grew nervous, her anger vanishing.
The online game <King> was invented by the Longfei Group, connecting a helmet to a computer. The helmets are divided into three levels: a gold helmet for 1000 yuan, a platinum helmet for 2000 yuan, and a diamond helmet for 8000 yuan. Although I'm already unemployed, I still have a steady income that keeps normal expenses unaffected, but the diamond helmet is out of the question—too extravagant.
"Will you be paying in cash or by card？" The salesgirl noticed I completely ignored her embarrassment, continuing to size her up and take advantage of her, so she shot me a fierce dirty look.
I paid by card and took the white-packaged platinum helmet. It looked quite light and delicate—2000 yuan, it better be good, or it'd be hard to justify.
"Sir, remember to read the manual first before setting it up to avoid any mistakes." Seeing that I had shifted my gaze to the helmet, ignoring her presence, the salesgirl reminded me with a hint of displeasure, and bounced her breasts as a gesture of protest against this man.
"Okay, thank you," I quickly smiled apologetically, then vigorously ravished her breasts with my eyes again.
A beautiful woman is meant to be appreciated—you have to let her know she exists, to realize her worth, so as not to waste God's gift. This is also the best praise for a beauty.
I went home, connected the helmet to the computer, and just waited for the open beta in three days. Then, I'd definitely make my move.
I'm a veteran gamer. During college, I played games with the guys, and I was never short on skill, luck, or even luck with the ladies—I always lived it up. But the games I played always had this or that flaw, preventing me from fully enjoying myself. After reading about <King>, if it really is as described, it'll be absolutely perfect.
The second world of humanity—what something to look forward to.
Thinking of my brothers, I felt a pang in my heart： "Big Bro, no matter what, you're still my brothers."
I wonder if my brothers are doing well, if they'll play this game, if we can meet up... but can I even meet them？
I feel lost！
