Leveling Technology To Save Humanity-Chapter 63: The World Goes Crazy
Chapter 63: The World Goes Crazy
Two days have gone by, and the Rave about the VRs was still prominent. No matter what station you turn the news to, no matter what Blogger or Vlogger exists out there, they will speak about the VR sets offered by GF WorldTech.
Most of the time, they spoke on Gort, Geldhan village, and its prospects. There were those that stood for change, and those that didn’t.
"Is the future so close to changing already? I don’t stand for this sort of fast technical change. What’s next? Phones that work using contact lenses in our eyes?"
"I think it’s great! With VR, I can now visit foreign countries without actually going there. Of course, nothing beats the real thing, but isn’t it still great to have that possibility?"
"Yes, yes, yes! Imagine going back in time and actually seeing how the ancients lived. No matter what history class is taught, visuals are the best to make anyone remember!"
"Hahahahaha~... Boss Gort is too awesome! This takes online dating to a whole new level! Can I finally see my online girlfriend in the VR world?"
"Damn, I just remembered that I told my boyfriend I can cook. Do you think I can take VR cooking classes to impress him?" novelbuddy.cσ๓
"What about me? Can I now marry a foreign beauty in the VR world? Damn, this is the dream of every computer believer, right?"
"Well, I like it! Boss Gort is too amazing! That day, I waited and waited for midnight on the dot. But just as I was about to clock, I was already told it was sold out. What kind of shitty luck do I have?"
"Upstairs, you’re not alone. Who the hell are those 600 people who clicked and bought them all in the space of 2 seconds? Just tell me where you are and I swear I won’t hit you!"
"Too pitiful! I was bragging to my buddy that I’ll be able to get one. But ended up with none. Now, I lost a bet and had to eat 4 scrotums... Blugh~... I’m still brushing my teeth till now."
"I thought I would have a chance, since Boss Gang said no one can buy 2 products at a time for this first launch. I thought I would be one of the 600 protagonists. So who can tell me why I joined the likes of you cannon fodders? No! No! I don’t accept it! I want my VR set too!"
"Bahahahaha~... Screw you Cannon Fodders. As a protagonist, I was one of those who snatched a VR patch for myself! Do I feel sympathy for you Cannon Fodders? No way! Who asked you not to have the luck of Buddha with you?"
"Fuck! Don’t hold me back. Where is my 10 meter long sword? Upstairs, who are you calling a Cannon Fodder?"
"Hey, hey hey... The one who said he got the LP1 patch. How is it?"
"Damn, I’m still tracking my delivery. Fortunately, it says it should arrive tonight. Or else wouldn’t I have died from anxiety since then?"
"Upstairs, you’re not the only one. I ordered the Genesis VR watch, and my delivery is coming tomorrow. But why does tomorrow feel so far? Dammit! Why didn’t Boss Gort develop a time machine instead?"
"Pfft~... Although Boss Gort is powerful, I don’t believe he’s that powerful! If he can make a time machine, I’ll eat my own shit!"
"Upstairs, only that? If Boss Gort is able to build one, I’ll donate my entire skeleton for research!"
"Bah! Who the hell wants your stupid skeleton? Instead of taking skeletons of great people like Boss Gort, they’ll take yours instead? Are you delusional on thinking we will need your broken skeleton for any research?"
"Pfft~... upstairs, you said it well. Some people are just shameless, thinking they’re important. Fart!"
"Well, whether it’s true or not, we’ll only know when the first group of users give feedback."
"Yes, yes, yes... Those who doubt, please don’t compete with me for spots! I believe in this VR and must have it okay?"
"Dammit, I agree with you upstairs! I just hope some of you here won’t come fighting with this daddy when it’s time to buy!!!"
...
Everyone was going crazy, talking about the Virtual Reality Fiasco that has now plagued their planet.
Was it a good thing? Was it the end to the way they usually did things?... Was this the start of the Sci-Fi galactic era that some looked forward to, while others despised?
Talks and talks, podcasts, vlogs, blogs, TV talks, and popular opinions floated around the net.
This was the time when NEETs and popular Sci-Fi, anime, manhwa, and gaming fans, all came out of the woodworks to speak on their guesses.
Suddenly, many NEETs became stars overnight, as they gave their speculations which almost caused internet galactic wars across the world.
The NEETs had never gotten so much power before. Even the popular ones felt the incredulous power weighing on their shoulders from this war. The NEETs went against each other’s factions, some believing, others doubting, and some creating more speculations on how the VR world will feel and impact humanity’s future.
All sorts of contracts burst out of the scene, as many companies now scrambled to get in touch with these NEETs, gamers, and Fantasy fans who became even more popular than before.
What will the future look like now?
Everyone knew that despite their guesses, time was the only truth to the matter—Only time will tell. But while the world was going gaga and cuckoo, Gort was now finalizing a few contracts.
Today, Geldhan village had been bombarded with all sorts of visitors, those specially invited by Gort. But who were these people, exactly?
They were CEOs and important personnel from Major Gaming companies across Gwintia Country.
As of now, because of the fear of the big 3, only no foreign Gaming Company dares to contact Gort yet.
Gort sneered. As they say, the early bird gets the biggest worm.
These people will definitely regret it!
