"Isn't that the newest Vr game?" Ezreal asked
"It's not just a new VR game, this one is the future." Victor said with fanaticism.
Ezreal raised his eyebrows, this didn't move him multiple Vr games claimed the same thing, he didn't see how this one was any different.
"How is this one different from the others." Ezreal asked once more.
"Well for one, its made with the latest tech, it's a fully immerssive experience, so you could feel every little thing, whether it be a bee sting or your head getting sliced of your neck. It's world is also said to be 2 times bigger than our earth, so theres hella shit to be discovered." Victor continued.
"I still don't see how this is any different from any other VR game.Ezreal said skeptically.
Victor launched a deious smile at Ezreal, before leaning fowards staring deep into Ezreals eyes, with a serious tone he said.
"Because Ez, unlike other games, this one offers a monetary exchange system. Which means in game currency can be changed into real world currency and vice versa." he said
Ezreal's eyes widened, if this was true then the potential this game held was going to be tremendous. A monoply on the ingame currency would result in a monoply in Union Credits, the would in essense run the worlds economy.
"You finally get the view dont you." Victor said smugly.
Ezreal had to admit, this game was important. If he could make it big there, then he could perhaps make enough money to afford his brothers medication. But then it struck him, he remembered the price he saw on the advertisement for the headset needed. He couldn't possibly afford it not now
"Now, the game officially launches tonight at midnight, I managed to get us some unformation from the beta testers so they should give us a bit of a head start, though im pretty sure they'll change things up. So we have from now till midnight till we need to study everything" Victor said, pulling out a stack of papers.
"Don't worry abut the headset, i already got you one." Victor said pulling out a box that displayed Eden's Online symbol. He opened it up pulling out a silver helmet, with a sleek black visor. He handed it to Ezreal together with the
Ezreal took the headset and the papers as he began flipping through the papers. Though regretabbly there was no important information, just basic information about the the zones as well as basic info on the game itself, no key or game breaking information.
The two then went on to discuss their plan on how they were going to progress through the game up until right before the game's launch.
"So as we meet up as soon as pissible." Victor said, putting on his helmet turning it on.
Ezreal also nodded, putting on the headset turning it on. The screen was black until it turned on, he experienced a sucking sensation, as if his conciousness was pulled into some place different.
He appeared in a white space, the only source of color was him. High above him a countdown could be seen.
0:9:23
It must be the countdown for the game to launch he thought. He assumed a sitting position, calmly waiting for the countdown to end. Eventually the countdown reached the single digits.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1
The white background erdupted into darkness, his figure was then launched at great speed foward, he closed his eyes, the force was just too much. He abruptly stopped after some time, he slowly opened his eyes, the view shocking him greatly. In front of him lay a huge planet. It looked almost identical to earch with it's green continents and massive blue ocean, only the plannet was much larger than earth.
He looked around the plannet seeing, light rushing stopping right before the plannet just like he had. Other players he thought. There seemed to millions of light with more appearing each second.
Suddenly a figure appeared right above the plannet. She seemed so far away yet Ezreal could see her so clearly. He was stunned by how simply beutiful she was. She had shinning golden her imbedded between were jewels that glittered like mini suns. She wore a loose frilly golden dress, on top of her hed a golden halo radiated it's light down to her.Her face was the pinnacle of perfection, as if chiseled by the hands of angels themselved, her lips cherry red, her nose, perfectly framed her face. In her eyes, golden, flowers danced. Motes of golden light shed down her figure falling slowly down.
Ezreal was stunned by her beauty, such a figure would be called a goddess back on earth. She spread her arms wide. Proclaiming.
With that Eve exploded into a dazzling rain of golden particles. A system interface opened up before Ezreal, displaying a 3d hologram of his figure, on the side multiple icons, some for hair face, and etc. He could fully customize his appearance.
Suddenly a figure appeared infront of him, he intantly recongnised her. Eve. She floated there infront of her a smile on her face. Ezreal felt uncomfortable, he knew she was an ai, but she looked so real.
"Hello player 3032943, would you like to customize your appearance, though due to certain parameters you can only adjust you apperance to look 20% different from you original apperance." Eve said
Ezreal gulped, getting him out of his ealier stupor.
" I don't need to change anything." Ezreal said.
"Excellent, then onto the next step. Please select you username. Please be careful on your choice as this is how you will be reffered to in game." Eve said holding out a hand
Another interface opened up. This one with a keyboard. Ezreal contemplated using his go to mission name, spider. But he opt out the idea, since this was a fresh start he needed a brand new name.
"Rhaast." he thought with a smile. It sounded menacing.
"Glad to meet you, Rhaast. Next you will be transported to into a lore piece. This will be crucial in understanding the world." Eve said with a smile
Ethan nodded before he was flinged towards the world, darkness engulfing him.
