The Magical Journey to Hogwarts - Chapter 953
c953 a mysterious conversation
In a city that is neither prosperous nor dilapidated,
In a building that is neither beautiful nor old,
A floor that is neither high nor low,
In an office area that is neither large nor small, neither spacious nor narrow,
A young and middle-aged employee who was neither tall, short, fat, thin, ugly, nor handsome walked up to another familiar employee with a cup of coffee that was neither hot, nor cold, nor strong, nor weak, nor bitter, nor sweet.
“Hey! Lao Gao, it’s already noon and you’re still busy.”
“Oh~! What can I do if I’m not busy? The work that bastard minister assigned to me cannot be completed in one day. If I don’t pay close attention now, I won’t be able to get off work on time today. Why are you so leisurely? ?I remember that the workload assigned to you is not less than mine, right?”
“Tch! Even if you don’t eat lunch, you won’t be able to finish before getting off work. In that case, why don’t you take a break.”
“…What you said seems to make sense.”
“It makes perfect sense! By the way, Lao Gao, why don’t we quit this damn job?”
“Shhh! Keep your voice down, if that guy from the minister hears it, he will definitely find trouble with you again.”
“I’m not even going to do it anymore. I’m still afraid that he’ll find trouble? If he can, he’ll come to my house to look for me. If I don’t kick him down from the 12th floor!”
“No, are you serious?”
“Of course! As you know, I didn’t want to do it for a long time. Every day was filled with endless work and endless overtime. I was as tired as a dead dog and had to be picked on by my boss. The promised salary , there is not a month where the full amount is paid, and some is always deducted for some inexplicable reason, and you have no place to reason. Look at Uncle Ma in the next department. He is almost 60 this year. He has been working here for decades, and look at how energetic he is now. I wouldn’t be surprised if he died suddenly tomorrow! I don’t want to become like Uncle Ma in the future.”
“…But what are we going to do after we resign? You don’t know that these days, the crows in the world are all black! Looking around, there are either tiger’s dens or wolf’s dens in the world. Let’s go there Where to go?”
“Hey~! I’ve already thought about it, let’s play games!”
“Ha!!? Are you crazy? Do you plan to live by drinking the northwest wind from now on?”
“You guy, you definitely didn’t read the link I sent you last night, right?”
“I was busy working overtime last night. I didn’t even bother to take a shower when I got home. I fell on the bed and fell asleep without even looking at my phone.”
“Then take out your phone and take a look. I guarantee you will be surprised.”
“What on earth is it?”
“”pioneer”!”
“Pioneer? What pioneer? What pioneer?”
“Holy crap! You’ve been taken away from me, Lao Gao! Is this the same good buddy who stayed with me all night in the Internet cafe for three days and three nights just to get a piece of equipment!”
“Don’t come here! That happened 10 years ago. Now let alone three days and three nights, even if it’s only one night, you have to call an ambulance to pick me up the next morning.”
“”Pathfinder”! The world’s first virtual reality game launched by the super dangerous Menethil family – “Pathfinder”!”
“Oh~! That’s what you were talking about. I remembered that we watched the CG of that game together before. By the way, you don’t really believe the nonsense in the promotional video, do you? It’s not like you don’t know that now These game companies spend 50% of their budget on CG and 50% on promotion. The game looks like it was made with feet from beginning to end. You can’t play it for 10 minutes, let alone… What kind of virtual reality, with the current level of technology, how can it be really possible?”
“But I do magic.”
“…Then I don’t believe it either!”
“Okay, don’t talk about unnecessary things. I saw a live demonstration video on the Internet last night. It was super explosive! Watch it quickly!”
“Tsk, how explosive can it be… Damn it! It’s real! This guy has traveled through time!”
“Hahaha! How about it? Isn’t it super cool?”
“It’s really super cool. If this game is really the same as shown in the video, I won’t be able to rest in peace if I don’t play it.”
“When I said playing games before, I was referring to this. With our game skills and tacit cooperation, if we can use this game to make guides, videos, and live broadcasts, I believe it will not be worse than our current income. In the end, The main thing is that you don’t have to look at people’s faces all day long. How about it? Do you want to do it or not?”
“Fuck!… Although I really want to say this, have you forgotten something very important? This game can only be logged in in that legendary magical city [Dalaran].”
“Then let’s go to that [Dalaran]! I’ve long wanted to go there to experience the legendary magic.”
“Don’t come here. Last time, who said that Bell must be a big villain who eats people without spitting out their bones? Who said that he would never go to [Dalaran] in his life? He wouldn’t go even if he was given money. ”
“Ahem… It’s not just this one moment, that moment. If there is such a fun game to play, it wouldn’t be a big deal if I gave the more than one hundred kilograms to that Bell to eat.”
“You are really willing to risk your life just to play a game.”
“What? You don’t agree?”
“I agree with both hands and feet. But the problem is, what I said before is easy to say. It is said that more than half of those who apply to enter [Dalaran] are successful. But since the CG of “Explorer” was announced, many people who want to enter [Dalaran] have succeeded. The number of people has increased dramatically, and they are almost overcrowded. Before, you said those guys were heartless, what are you talking about…”
“Stop, stop, stop! Stop talking, I am short-sighted. Isn’t it okay that I am short-sighted? I am regretting it now! You said that the Menethil family is the same, why do you have to stipulate that in [Dala You can only log into the game if you win. Can’t they build more servers?”
“I play magic…”
“Then the magic server!”
“Who knows, maybe there are some restrictions. After all, I have only heard about magic in fairy tales when I was growing up. Oh, by the way, there are also games.”
“So let’s apply!”
“No, are you serious? You have to know that the reputation of [Dalaran] is not very good.”
“You listen to those people’s nonsense. [Dalaran] has not closed the city, and everyone who has been there has returned well. No matter how bad it is, it is impossible to really eat us.”
“But there are so many people applying now…”
“I can’t control that much anymore. No matter how low the probability is, it’s still better than zero, right? Apply first and then we’ll talk. Maybe we’ll just get in.”
“Yes, let’s go now? If we take the bus there now, we should be able to arrive before they get off work.”
“No, no, wait until the weekend. Let’s go again this Saturday.”
“Why? Didn’t you say you don’t want to do this job now?”
“Then we have to wait until our application is approved before resigning.”
“…No, it’s too late on Saturday. There are still several days left. I can’t bear it. Let’s take a day off tomorrow to submit the application.”
“But can the minister approve it? We should ask for leave together. I don’t think that guy will agree.”
“If he doesn’t agree with me, he will resign! I no longer want to work! Let’s go! Let’s go and ask for leave now!”
“Uh…hey, slow down, don’t drag me, I’ll go by myself…”
