It's My Turn to Dominate [Virtual Reality]Ch6 - The completely virtual version of Wandering Dreams launched officially

Jiang Chen lived in the sterile ward for 20 days before coming out.

During this time, he had surgery and resolved the relapse issue. However, after experiencing this spectacle, the bit of weight that he had gained back previously with great difficulty was lost again. A9Weay

The little research team felt extremely distressed and instructed the two AIs to monitor him closely during meals. Worried that he might become engrossed in playing games, they even set a schedule for him. Two hours in the morning, one hour in the afternoon. Sleep at 8pm.

Jiang Chen felt this ‘8pm’ was really inhumane and asked: “Do you guys sleep at 8pm?”

The staff didn’t answer. They held up a mirror in front of him and made him examine his own weak and emaciated face.

Jiang Chen looked at it and remarked: “Still attractive enough to beat 90% of the people.” 1FL Ta

“…….”

For a second, the staff were unable to refute that. Therefore, they dug out his previous photos to create a reference point so he doesn’t get too arrogant.

Jiang Chen fell silent for a moment: “9:30pm.”

The staff said: “8:30pm.”

Jiang Chen said: “10pm.”

The staff: “…….”

You can bargain like this?

They looked at the two AIs to the side and gave the order: “Cry.” 1 5mKH

The little nurse immediately burst into tears with a ‘wah’.

The sound of crying fluctuated in volume, multiplying the effect exponentially.

Jiang Chen: “……”

Both sides took a step back and finally agreed on sleeping at 9pm. However, he still couldn’t play games at night. They were afraid he’d get too excited from playing that it’d reduce his sleep quality. Instead, he could choose between watching movies, listening to music, or having the AIs read a book to him. h0yJrN

Jiang Chen nodded and agreed. Putting on the long awaited glasses, he entered the beta.

In front of him was the view of familiar mountains. The fireworks at the bottom of the cliff have already vanished. Perhaps they were taken back by the system after being placed there for too long or perhaps they were set off by a certain someone.

Jiang Chen picked a wilderness area and started walking there leisurely.

After not coming online for 20 days, that ‘Ah’ and the unlucky Warrior and Swordsman probably have all left the realm. Now this place was deserted and uninhabited. He killed the mobs for quite a while without seeing a single living person. Ultimately, he ran off to complete missions where he could at least hear the NPCs speak. kgUR70

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye. He was called offline by the little nurse and took them out for a walk.

About 20 minutes later, a familiar figure appeared in the demon realm.

Fang JingXing ambled around slowly but still didn’t see the Wardcaster, so he took off his glasses to eat.

After “Love’s five” dropped out of trending searches, he didn’t bother anymore. It’s true that he could reblog that status again and ask tauntingly: “Are you afraid to see me?” However, he understood the concept of ‘too much is just as bad as not enough’. Speaking too much can seem deliberate. He may be suspected of forcing the other out. 8yTf2I

Fang JingXing has always looked at problems logically and clearly. He’s not a person to bash his head against a brick wall and waste time. It’s only when occasionally recalling how skillfully and confidently that Wardcaster moved, he’d feel that it’s somewhat of a pity and come over to look around in his free time.

He thought of a few possibilities.

One, that kid has been busy so he hasn’t been online lately. Two, he saw the trending search but for some reason, didn’t want to bother with Fang JingXing. Three, he didn’t see the trending search, wasn’t actually busy, and didn’t disappear either; it’s just that…… they couldn’t run into each other.

Unable to meet, if Fang JingXing wanted to add that Wardcaster as friend, he could only search by ID. 816dgb

However, he doesn’t remember the guy’s ID.

At that time, they just met so he only took a casual glance, basically didn’t even attempt to memorize it. Of course, the result is tragedy.

Good thing he had, more or less, a vague impression and attempted to search using permutations. Unfortunately, he still couldn’t find it even up to now and had no choice but to wander around in his free time, hoping for a chance encounter.

However, this was a very low possibility because Wandering Dreams was really too big. 7N4Opq

The realms of each race alone included a main castle and three small cities. Don’t even mention the vast amount of public areas outside.

Such a large map and only 1 thousand people playing at this time, without any methods to make contact and only depending on a chance encounter, this was practically as difficult as climbing up to Heaven on foot.

It’s not just hard for him, it was hard for the two TQ newcomers as well. Fang JingXing even created a small group chat specifically and told them to yell when they see the guy. Not daring to disobey his words, the two newcomers agreed.

After these days, their frequency of interactions have lessened again and again. The break between conversation has also gotten longer and longer. Fang JingXing knew that once more time passes, once the regret in his heart dissipates, he won’t even look around anymore. 0 kxFg

Who knows what’s going on with that Wardcaster.

Sitting in the restaurant and waiting for food with a hand propping up his chin, Captain Fang thought exasperatedly.

Jiang Chen was eating at this time. After the meal, he listened to the little nurse recite a poem and play some music, then he went to take a lunch break. When he woke up from his nap, he continued to play.

Gradually, he developed a regular pattern to his daily routines. As his body slowly recovered, his complexion got better day by day. In the game, he also leveled past 30. The only blemish he felt was that he played this beta like a single-player game. peUC8L

He had been an internet-addicted teenager and knew that people from this social circle were all night owls. In the morning, they were basically ‘in a coma’, only to wake up slowly midday and in the afternoon. Then they’d eat takeout, climb online half-awake and half-asleep, and finally regain full energy at night— perfectly bypassing the time period that he played the game.

Occasionally, he’d see people pop up in world chat, but before he could make up his mind on whether or not he should interrupt, the topic would end and fall quiet again. After three repetitions of this, he even lost interest in reading the channel.

Maybe it’s due to bad luck, or maybe he kept taking the narrow path, or maybe his time for playing games everyday was too limited— after playing for nearly a month, he could count the number of living people he saw with one hand, and everytime the other was so busy they passed him in a hurry, only leaving him a carefree view of their back.

Seeing that the beta was about to end, he was too lazy to level up anymore and decided to find a map with nice scenery to take a tour trip. RfS1DT

Compared to Jiang Chen’s reclusiveness, Fang JingXing’s beta experience was extremely diverse and fulfilling. He has a lot of friends so people accompanied him in everything he did. At first he’d enter the game briefly in the mornings, wanting to find the Wardcaster. Later on, he thought it was too deserted and switched his online schedule to nights; he just didn’t do overnights.

On this day, he bid farewell to a group of friends and prepared to go offline to sleep. Before leaving, he randomly wrote a string of symbols as usual and pressed search. Instantly, he saw a transparent screen appear before him, which contained a brief introduction.

ID: {xu-5cc靉の!

Class: Wardcaster 26rgtD

Level: 53

Online Y/N: No

Fang JingXing: “……”

After attempting for so long, he had already lost hope. Who would have thought things would take a turn and offer him a new opportunity unexpectedly. fuAUxd

Looking at that pitiful level 53, he guessed that kid must have really stopped playing for a period of time. Hastily, he checked when the other went offline last and discovered it was 4pm this afternoon.

This meant that he has probably been playing recently.

Captain Fang’s cold and cooling heart instantly lived again.

He had met the other immediately after entering the game, and despite losing the guy midway, he managed to find him again before the beta ended. This was a renewal of their previously fated relationship. itzIhr

When Jiang Chen got online the next day, he received an unread message.

He reached out a hand to open it and faced a transparent screen.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Player ‘Ah’ requests to add you as friend.

Accept, Refuse. THnibY

Remark: Bro, I’ve been searching for you this entire time.

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow.

Honestly…… After being alone for so long, even this guy now felt pleasing to the eye.

Subconsciously, he wanted to accept, but then he recalled the beta will end today and the equipment will return to his nephew. t50k9A

He’s not sure if the data from the beta will be saved, so there’s no reason to add friend. Not to mention, they had separated on a poor note previously. Who knew what kind of intentions this guy had in searching for him. It’s best to not cause trouble for his nephew.

As such, he clicked refuse.

Remark: duck no need.

Fang JingXing got online specifically this morning. Seeing the reply, he opened a private chat. jF6spq

Ah: Where are you? Talk in person.

Jiang Chen pretended to not see anything.

Two minutes later, a second message came over.

Ah: Do you want to play professionally? OCBcYU

 

Jiang Chen stared at the words for a moment, then understood.

This guy figured out his true strength last time and wanted to win him over.

He replied: If you want to drag me into a team, there’s no need to converse anymore. UHbPEZ

Ah: You’ve already signed to an organization?

Jiang Chen replied no. Seeing the other asking again, he started to feel a bit depressed. Even he didn’t know when he can compete again, so he said half-heartedly: We should let each other go. If fated, see you at server launch.

Please visit chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

Ah: Alright. A total of 10 servers will launch on that day, which one are you joining?

Fang JingXing pressed send and received an exclamation mark— the other party blocked him. Vaj0SH

Fang JingXing: “……”

For a second, Captain Fang even wanted to grind this kid into the ground a bit.

He refused to let the opportunity pass just like this and searched around everywhere. Unfortunately, he was so unlucky that he was unable to find the Wardcaster even by the time the other went offline.

At 12 o’clock midnight, the beta server closed. yfguOK

In the following days, the game company will gather the players’ feedback, then conduct repairs and debugging.

From the beginning of summer to the end of summer, Jiang Chen ate well and drank well. Recuperating for three months and finally gaining back the weight on his body, he went to find the staff to have a chat with them.

However, as soon as he opened the door, he received a present.

The people from the small research team stood outside and handed him a box with smiles on their faces. On the box was a familiar game LOGO. g2UB7E

Startled, Jiang Chen accepted it: “I can play it any time?”

“……” Everyone said in unison: “No!”

However, the time limitation can be loosened slightly. He still couldn’t stay up overnight. Jiang Chen bargained with them for a while before carrying the box inside in satisfaction.

The week passed in a blink of an eye. On this day, Jiang Chen put on his glasses after eating breakfast and waited for the countdown. 5gFW9i

September 5th, 9am in the morning.

The completely virtual version of Wandering Dreams launched officially.

Translator's Note

The world chat channel, usually a chat box

Translator's Note

Just internet slang for the word 大可不必(Dake bubi), which means ‘that’s really not necessary’

Translator's Note

放过彼此 Basically “let bygones be bygones” or “let’s move on”, but I’ve honestly only seen this phrase used in a breakup, as in “if you love someone, let them go”, or “let’s stop tormenting each other and let each other go”. Haha

  1. I apologize but why does this feel like ‘the husband that was searching for his missing wife for many years only to be slapped in the face by his wife’s child and husband when he found her’ QvQ
