001: Card BUG
hiss……
Yan Yu shuddered violently and breathed in the fresh air greedily. He soon realized that something was wrong because he smelled a strong smell of disinfectant.
He opened his eyes with difficulty, and the pain on his forehead made him gasp.
That's not right.
I logged off in the safe zone, how could I get hurt?
His swollen eyes trembled, and he opened a crack and looked around. There were several medicine cabinets in the room of more than 20 square meters. He was lying on the hospital bed, and there was an open computer next to him.
The cabinet is made of iron, and the computer is an LCD monitor. There is a large series of wires connected to the back, as well as the yellowed floor tiles and the dilapidated ceiling...
Something's wrong.
This kind of furnishings and technological supplies are more like things from the 21st century. Even in the real world, such things have long been eliminated, let alone science fiction online games that explore space.
There was a brief moment of shock, then horror.
Yan Yu's rationality quickly gained the upper hand and he observed the surroundings vigilantly: ""Star Road" has been updated to version 4.7, where can there be such an antique computer? Even if I was injured, it should be in a recuperation warehouse or something like that.
"
Recalling my actions a few minutes ago, I got up as usual, entered the game room, and logged into Star Road...
Everything is normal.
How could it become like this?
"Is there a bug?"
Yan Yu had an ominous premonition in his heart and couldn't help but mutter: "Settings? System? Forced offline?..."
Tried one by one and ended in failure.
Not only did he not exit the game, he was forced offline, and even other system modules did not respond.
just like……
This is reality, not a virtual online game.
"Gulu~"
He swallowed hard, and through the reflection of the glass of the medicine cabinet, he saw his own appearance on the hospital bed...not the real self, nor the character he created on his journey to stardom.
But a stranger.
His facial features are relatively three-dimensional, and he looks like a mixed-race person. The thick bloodshot eyes are like spider webs, and his face is full of haggard and decadence. He is clearly in his twenties, but there is a strong air of twilight.
Like an old man who is dying.
"Well……"
As if a certain mechanism had been touched, Yan Yu felt as if his head was about to split open. Mixed and huge information emerged from nowhere, constantly impacting his consciousness.
After a while, this constant stream of pain gradually faded away.
At this time, Yan Yu had no strength left to move. He was just like a fish that had been thrown ashore, waiting helplessly to die. He was staring blankly at the light tube, his pupils dilated, as if he was absent-minded.
That was... another person's memory?
This is not your own body.
I have traveled through time?
In the game Star Road, and it was still around the early version 1.0, human civilization could not break out of the planet and could only wander around the ancestral star.
The ancient gods have not yet recovered, and countries are still competing.
The Zerg have not yet attacked, and the federation has not yet been established.
The long-lasting version 1.0...
The mode of Xingtu is very open, especially the early version, which is similar to GTA5 more than a hundred years ago.
From this, we can predict what kind of tricks the players can do.
Ever since there were players, the crime rate in various countries in the game has increased thousands of times in an instant. Shootings, robberies, murders...the news can't be reported, it's just a daily scene.
According to the ephemeris date, it has been in open beta for several months now. If there are really players, this should be the most confusing time.
But it didn't.
He did not find any trace of the player from the memory of the original owner.
"Alas~"
While Yan Yu was disappointed by this discovery, he couldn't help but feel a little lucky.
He was disappointed because he originally wanted to report it to the game officials through the players and let them find a way to get him out, but now it seems that there is no chance.
I'm glad because I don't seem to be an NPC, but a living person, so I avoided being harassed and killed by players.
"Calm down, there is no sure way. Only by staying calm can you survive."
Yan Yu pressed hard on the sore spot on his body, and the stinging pain made him focus quickly: "The first expansion of Xingtu took place in September 2074, the ephemeris date.
Even if there are no players to add fuel to the flames, it won’t be delayed for too long. A world war will break out by the end of 2074 at most. I still have... less than a year, so I have to find a way to survive."
…
Based on sorting out the memory fragments of the original owner, Yan Yu probably figured out the situation.
The original owner was a college student. He came home from vacation a few days ago. Suddenly someone broke in, brutally killed his parents, and put the blame on the original owner's head.
The murderer was obviously very experienced and left no trace.
Later, things became simple. All the evidence pointed to him, so he was thrown into prison. Although there is no death penalty in this country, he will not be able to get out for the rest of his life.
The original owner was severely hit. He was already miserable enough, but unexpectedly he was thrown into a gang cell. In order to protect his own backyard, he started a friendly exchange with his roommates.
Then, he was sent to the infirmary.
"Damn it, misfortunes never come singly? Not only do I have to plan a jailbreak, but I also have to be careful not to be bullied?" Yan Yu frowned secretly: "It seems that the troublesome things are not just there."
Although the memory fragments of the original owner were very vague, he could still see some clues.
This seemed... to be an event, but it was so long ago that he couldn't remember it.
"never mind."
After rubbing his swollen and painful head, he finally gave up on the memory. He tugged at the corners of his lips helplessly and sighed inwardly: "It would be great if I could enter the forum. There are many guide posts there."
At this moment, a familiar prompt box suddenly popped up in front of his field of vision.
[System prompt]: Dear players, Hello, Star Road has been updated, and the latest expansion pack "Twilight of the Empire" has been released. Please follow the link at the end to jump and enter the game forum to browse the details.
"forum?"
Yan Yu was surprised and immediately overjoyed.
If he can enter the forum, he can post a request for help and ask the official people to find a way to rescue him...
If given a choice, who would want to stay in such a chaotic world?
To be honest, the early stages of the game are better. In the future, during the space expedition, the major legions will form fleets one after another to explore and colonize alien planets. Who knows when a rail gun will turn you into gray.
In the game Star Road, future versions will be entirely a competition of imagination.
There are those who fly Gundams, those who fly mechas, those who lead fleets, those who colonize planets and become emperors, and even those who make their debut as stars in the game. It’s like a chaotic dance.
Focusing on the link, the prompt box disappeared and the familiar forum page jumped out. Thousands of posts appeared every time it was refreshed, which was very lively.
"The empire is destroyed? Is my camp dead?"
"The Tyrant Emperor is a Real Man..."
"How could I finally become the emperor's concubine, and the country is about to be destroyed before the palace battles begin?"
Chapter completed!
