Chapter 713: World of Holographic Online Games

In response to this seriously strange situation, Ning Shu chose to first receive the storyline.

This was a world of holographic online games. The so-called holographic game was a very high-end style of gaming. The holographic gaming helmets or gaming pods sent a user’s brainwaves into the system, so the simulation was extremely realistic. The player would feel like they were really in the virtual world.

The technology of the world outside this game was definitely very developed. At the very least, she had never seen such high-level technology before.

This body belonged to an NPC. It was supposed to be controlled by the system, but due to a strange twist of fate, it ended up gaining self-awareness.

The so-called NPC were game characters that weren’t controlled by players used to drive the game storyline development. For example, if the player entered a store, the storekeeper would be an NPC.

Meanwhile, Ning Shu was currently an NPC that had twisted her foot and was waiting for a player to come save her by going into the valley and defeating the beast defending the specified herb to get it for her.

Basically, her job was to send players to fight a monster, get equipment, and gain experience points.

The original host’s mentality had been like that of a newborn infant. She didn’t know anything. Fortunately, the control of the main system allowed her to know what she was supposed to do.

However, unlike other NPC, the original host had feelings and would feel lonely.

Even as the game went through its last audit, the original host’s abnormality wasn’t discovered. Finally, players started flooding nonstop into the world. This game was explosively popular.

The ID of the male lead of this world was [Flowing Cool Breeze]. He was part of the first group to enter the game and was also the first person the original host had ever encountered.

This [Flowing Cool Breeze] was the first person to arrive in front of the original host. It was the original host’s first time ever seeing a person, so she was very surprised. She followed the storyline of the game and had [Flowing Cool Breeze] enter the valley to get the herb for her.

The original host was very curious about humans, so to talk to this person more, she told [Flowing Cool Breeze] what the herb looked like in detail and the weak points of the boss guarding the herb as well as its defense level and stuff like that.

[Flowing Cool Breeze] carefully noted all of this down, defeated the boss, got the herb, and cured the original host’s ankle.

However, the original host was sad to see him leave and asked him to visit more in the future to play with her.

[Flowing Cool Breeze] felt that this NPC was unusual, so as an experiment, he came to visit the original host every time before going to fight monsters and the original host would tell him about the boss’s HP, attack power, defense power, and how to defeat it.

These repeated experiments allowed [Flowing Cool Breeze]’s level to rapidly shoot up and he was also able to obtain a lot of high quality equipment that would’ve normally cost a lot of money.

[Flowing Cool Breeze] was pretty sure that this NPC was a bug in the system. Naturally, he didn’t think of an NPC as a person at all. He just wanted to make use of this loophole to get further in the storyline and obtain more equipment.

With the original host’s tips, [Flowing Cool Breeze] was able to complete a lot of hidden quests. These quests were normally very hard for players to find and [Flowing Cool Breeze] had been able to reap a huge amount of benefits from them.

He kept the highest quality equipment for himself and sold some of the equipment he didn’t need for a lot of cash.

He then gradually became known as a godly player and established his own faction. In all, he pretty much stood at the very top of the pyramid.

[Flowing Cool Breeze] knew that everything he obtained was thanks to the original host, this NPC. At the same time, he found that this NPC was a little clingy, so he just coaxed her a little and told her not to tell anyone else about these things.

The original host naturally nodded and agreed. She had become very dependent on [Flowing Cool Breeze]. Perhaps there was some love mixed in as well, because even though she encountered a lot more players in the future, [Flowing Cool Breeze] was the only one that remained persistently on her mind.

Later, as the original host revealed more and more things, the abnormality in the code was finally detected by the game’s controlling system and the game staff erased the original host’s code, erasing the existence of this NPC.
