The weird game of the ancient gods

Xia Yu looked at the watch in his hand again, but there was still no movement. Today is already the tenth day. Yesterday, Xia Yu vaguely felt that something was wrong when he didn't receive a prompt. Today, he took a look at the watch and became more and more sure of himself. speculation.

It looks like Game Lodge is really going to close down.

Although he was mentally prepared, it was still a bit unbelievable that it really happened. After much hesitation, he decided to go to the scene to have a look, just in case.

After saying goodbye to Katlana, Xia Yu drove straight to the game cabin.

At around ten o'clock, Xia Yu arrived at the door of the game cabin. To his surprise, the game cabin was open.

Xia Yu got out of the car and walked in. It was still the same as usual, with customers coming and going, tepid business, and waiters playing with their mobile phones. When they saw him, they greeted him warmly.

Xia Yu went up to the second floor and came to the place where he usually stayed. Far away, he found that someone had already arrived, and several people were having a heated discussion.

Bai Ye: "Didn't you receive the prompt to start the game? It's really strange. Why is there no movement on this watch?"

Xuanniao: "I heard from a traveler a few days ago that the landlord wants to turn off the game for a while."

Prodigal Son: "Really or not? It's impossible. Why did you suddenly close the game for no reason?"

Fubuki: "Oh, the traveler is here, hurry up, hurry up, what is going on?"

Xia Yu sat down helplessly and recounted what Wang Li had said that day, without stopping.

The young master looked suspicious: "Did you do something to the landlord? Otherwise, why did the landlord suddenly close the game?"

Xia Yu spread his hands and said, "You think too highly of me. What can I do to the landlord?"

"Then what are you doing with the landlord?"

"It's just a personal matter."

After chatting for a while, other people arrived one after another. A large group of people gathered around two tables, discussing suspiciously.

They were used to the watch prompting them to start the game, but everyone was a little unaccustomed to it all of a sudden.

Xia Yu comforted: "Don't be anxious, everyone. It's not even twelve o'clock yet. Maybe it will be opened by then. At that time, the landlord said that he would close the game cabin for a period of time, and then closed the rolling shutter door directly. Now since The game cabin is still open for business as usual, maybe it will open at noon.”

Although he said this, Xia Yu had no idea at all. He had a hunch that closing the door this time might not be that simple.

Everyone discussed for a while, but there was no result. They could only wait patiently. By the way, they also talked about Fubuki's hell card. Seeing that Fubuki was still alive, Byakuya Wanderer and others congratulated.

Fubuki had a depressed expression on her face, and she didn't know why.

Finally, the time reached eleven o'clock. At this time, the door of the game room had been opened. However, when everyone went to the third floor to check, the bronze door was motionless and showed no intention of opening.

Everyone simply stopped going downstairs and waited at the door. Even after twelve o'clock, the door still didn't open.

Black Cat was the first to lament: "It's over, it seems that we can't play this game today."

The Overlord was even more depressed than she was, "Damn it, I still have fifty rough stones to draw, so the landlord won't run away."

The leader said: "It shouldn't happen. I think maybe the landlord just left because of something. Maybe he will open it next time."

Everyone looked at each other helplessly, and that was all they could think at the moment.

People were leaving one after another. Xia Yu waited for more than an hour until he was sure that there were no games to play today. Then he said goodbye to the other people who stayed and turned around to leave.

While driving on the way home, Xia Yu couldn't tell whether he was happy or worried. To be honest, he was ready to quit the game before, but this time he didn't play the game, which made him feel a little empty. Something is missing.

Of course, on the other hand, I am also relieved. If I really get to play, I don’t know where to fight. Although there are not so many exciting things in reality, at least it is peaceful and stable.

"Let's buy a house." Xia Yu said to Katlana when he returned home.

It's not a problem to keep renting a house, and now that you have money, it's time to decorate a nest for yourself.

The key is that now that the bar has been smashed and there are no games to play, I just have time to pick a house.

They did what they said, and after lunch, the two of them went around the city looking at houses in the afternoon.

Xia Yu was going to buy a bigger house, preferably a luxury villa. After all, he had been playing the game desperately for so long, so he couldn't treat himself badly and not move after buying it.

Although he wanted to quit gaming, Xia Yu still maintained a wait-and-see attitude towards the game, so he had no plans to leave the Magic City.

But the result of wandering around the city made him feel very upset. The housing prices in Magic City were among the highest in the country, and the more than 10 million he earned before was not enough.

It's not that I can't afford it. It's easy to buy an ordinary apartment, but it's a bit difficult to buy a luxury house.

Of course, it depends on the location, but in general, spending more than 10 million is not as easy as Xia Yu imagined.

Besides, he didn’t want to spend it all, he had to save some for his future life.

"How about just buying something cheaper?" Katlana said.

"No, if you want to buy it, buy a big house." Xia Yu was very determined. "Don't worry, I've already thought of a way to make money."

In fact, it is not difficult to make money. Just sell a few of his collections.

However, Xia Yu didn't intend to do this. He still had a long life to live. To enjoy life, it was not enough to have less money. He had to earn enough.

Fortunately, he already had a plan. He had been undecided before, but this time, he finally made up his mind. This plan was to mine.

Of course, it is not digging on the earth, but going to outer space to dig. How can I not use the Phoenix fighter if I have it?

Three days later, the asteroid belt——

The Phoenix fighter flew slowly through the empty space, gradually approaching this time's target.

"Master, we are about to arrive at the asteroid belt, please be prepared."

Xia Yu glanced at the screen and was stunned. Is this the asteroid belt?

The asteroid belt in Xia Yu's imagination was composed of countless huge rocks floating in space, densely colliding with each other. Sometimes he showed off his driving skills and struggled to dodge between meteorites and planets. However, when he saw it with his own eyes, But I found that I really thought too much.

The asteroid belt is very sparse, and the distance between two asteroids is often very far away, even difficult to see with the naked eye. The dense space collision scenes can only be seen in movies.

But this saves trouble, at least you don't have to worry about being suddenly hit by a meteorite while mining.

With the help of AI, Xia Yu quickly flew to the location of the target asteroid.

The name of this asteroid is Psyche 16. Its main components are iron, nickel and some rare metals, such as gold, platinum and copper. It can be said to be priceless - of course, Xia Yu searched for these on the Internet. Related information, at this moment, he really saw the true appearance of this planet with his own eyes.

It is said to be an asteroid, but it is actually not small, with a diameter of about 200 kilometers. It is covered with large and small craters, and the irregular shape is like a deformed potato.

Under the illumination of sunlight, the surface of this asteroid shows a dull gray and yellow color. The gray part seems to be the original color of iron and nickel, while the yellow part reflects a strange color under the illumination of sunlight. luster.

Xia Yu felt excited. Is it gold? It should be gold, right? He drove the spaceship slowly over the asteroid, feeling excited in his heart. How much gold would this cost?

"Master, the Phoenix fighter's scanning system can help you analyze the specific composition of the current target."

"Thanks for the reminder." Xia Yu said, and immediately started the scanner of the spacecraft. His plan was to mine in space. The resources in space are extremely rich. The key is that no one cares about it, so you can dig as you like. Of course, the Phoenix fighter is not a professional mining machine. Ships, so large-scale mining is impossible, and Xia Yu does not need large-scale mining. He is not engaged in interstellar colonization, so he can just dig up some for his own use.

Soon the material composition of the asteroid appeared on the screen. The proportion of gold in the entire asteroid was not much, only about 5%, but considering the size of the entire asteroid, it was still extremely amazing.

Xia Yu aimed the ion cannon at a raised peak on the asteroid, where gold was most densely distributed, and then directly pulled the trigger.

Two strings of ion cannonballs were fired out. Since it was outer space, there was no explosion sound. Xia Yu saw the ion cannons shooting into the surface of the planet, lifting up planetary fragments all over the sky and flying around the asteroid. It is gradually pulled back by the gravity of the asteroid and becomes a mini-satellite orbiting the asteroid.

Xia Yu turned on the scanner and quickly locked onto one of the fragments with a diameter of two meters.

The gravitational beam was activated, and a tractor beam was shot out from the Phoenix fighter's belly, slowly sucking the golden rock into the spacecraft.

This fragment is not big, only a few cubic meters, but it is almost made of pure gold, so it is still very heavy, more than sixty tons.

After purification, at least 50 tons of gold can be extracted. Xia Yu looked at the large gold belt on the asteroid with some regret. Unfortunately, the Phoenix fighter was too small and could not dig too much, but it was fine. The water flows slowly. I will be short of money in the future. Just come and dig some gold.

The Phoenix fighter jet returned with a full load. The whole process of mining gold was very smooth. However, the process of selling gold was a bit troublesome. After all, it was more than fifty tons of gold, and it needed to be smelted and purified before being sold. Fortunately, I could ask those in the player group for help. , Xia Yu didn’t dare to sell them all at once.

He made a simple estimate. One ton of gold is more than 300 million, and more than 50 tons of gold are worth 10 to 20 billion. He really doesn't dare to sell it, otherwise something will happen. This time, no homeowner will be able to take care of it.

So for the first time, he only poured out one ton, which was enough to spend.

A week later, Xia Yu finally got his profits. After looking for help from someone to help him, he paid more than 300 million yuan in benefits. Xia Yu finally bought the mansion he wanted and moved in with Katlana.

Happy time is always short-lived. In the blink of an eye, it’s time to play again.

This time, there was still no prompt to start the game, but Xia Yu came to the game cabin again.

Other people also arrived one after another, and everyone gathered together listlessly to discuss the game and whether the homeowner had really run away.

Then we had lunch together. During the meal, Overlord complained repeatedly: "Oh, I still have fifty rough stones to draw."

After lunch, everyone dispersed.

In the following days, Xia Yu enjoyed the life of a rich man to the fullest. When he was rich, he lived comfortably. He lived in a mansion, drove a luxury car, ate delicacies from the mountains and seas, and was accompanied by beautiful women. However, Without the excitement of the game, I am still a little disappointed.

Although he was ready to quit the game, everything was still undecided before returning the watch, so Xia Yu would still go to the game cabin every ten days to gather with everyone and see if Wang Li was back.

At the third gathering, the Overlord complained again as usual, "Oh, I still have fifty rough stones to draw."

At the fourth gathering, Overlord still complained: "Oh, I still have fifty rough stones to draw."

In the blink of an eye, it was already the end of the year, and at the fifth party, the Overlord finally stopped saying those words.
