It Begins In Low-Rise Chapter 8

Originally, Eagle was not planning to go out. He knew that someone wanted him dead, and this was no joke. However, Samuel had already made some progress, and Eagle had been in the manor, so it would have been difficult for the other party to take action.

"So, I'm giving you this opportunity, will you come?"

Jason Pei thought that the naughty kid Iger was really staring at him to see if he would take out something, but in fact it was not that simple.

But at this moment, Jason Pei had no time to care about anything else. He stared outside the carriage, hoping to see even a single player appear.

In fact, Jason Pei knew in his heart that there was still a certain probability that he would not even be able to see the player's shadow.

After all, he has been certain during this period of time that this is a real world. Maybe the game in his memory was just generated based on this world as a template?

It's not impossible; it's even very likely.

If this is really the case, Jason Pei can only smile bitterly and helplessly.

"What's wrong with you? You look so uneasy," Eagle's cold voice sounded, "Are you really lying to me?"

Jason Pei was not in the mood to answer him, but he had to perfunctorily face the young master's suspicion, "No, I just have to go back to Casey City and recalled some bad memories."

Eagle knew that Jason Pei had been captured by Kuilang from Casey City. Ms. Mary had told him all those things.

Almost got sold... Well, I'm afraid it won't be a good memory.

The large and magnificent carriage slowly drove towards Casey City. Of course, the carriage that Eagle was riding in was completely different from the one that Vago and Jason Pei and the others were riding in at that time. This carriage was much larger and more luxurious.

The carriage in front was pulled by six tall white horses. The spacious compartment was enough to seat more than a dozen people without making people feel crowded. There were handles and footrests outside, enough for two rows of male servants to stand on.

This trip to Casey City was what Ms. Mary called a simple trip, but in addition to Eagle and Jason Pei, there were two maids in the carriage, as well as a low-status butler named Vissi who usually did not appear in front of Eagle. He usually followed Frank and had no qualifications to serve Eagle. At this moment, he was guarding the door of the carriage and could not even sit down, and he was specifically there to open the door for Eagle.

There were four male servants on both sides of the carriage, who could only stand outside holding the handles and eating dust along the way. There were a total of eighteen bodyguards and attendants riding horses following the carriage in front and behind.

This is actually, easy travel...

Jason Pei had the mood to feel lucky before that he had gotten into the recruitment team for a personal butler. If he had become an ordinary male servant, his life would probably be even more difficult than it is now.

But soon he lost even this mood, because the time should be almost ten o'clock.

He was so nervous that his breathing became irregular, and he didn't even pay attention to the strange and surprised look from Eagle across from him.

Suddenly, he saw a group of people appearing from a path outside the gate of Casey City. They were all wearing the same gray short-sleeved shirts and trousers. At first there were only a few people, but gradually more and more people came. Even though the carriage was a little far away from there, Jason Pei was still excited.

At this moment, it feels like drinking a large glass of ice water in summer, and the whole body feels relaxed.

"parking!"

No matter how much Jason Pei shouted, no one would listen to him. The people in the carriage would only listen to Eagle.

Iger looked at him and raised his hand. The carriage immediately slowed down and stopped. "Are you sure it's here?"

"Yes, but there are a lot more people there, and I don't know if the things have been dug away." Jason Pei said quickly.

Eagle looked at the gray group of people not far away with an expressionless face, and frowned slightly. Where did these people come from? They didn't look like people from Casey City.

Jason Pei pulled the car door and tried to get out, but Iger stopped him, "This isn't a good place, let's go into the city first."

The origins of this group of people were unknown, and there were quite a lot of them. Eagle looked at them with caution.

Jason Pei really wanted to say that nothing would happen and these people would not hurt him, but he suddenly realized that he really could not predict what the players would do.

So the carriage moved forward slowly again, and after entering the city, it stopped next to the tall tower at the end of the street.

After seeing the players, Jason Pei felt much more at ease. He accompanied Eagle up the tower. It turned out that there was an amplifying magic circle on the top of the tower, and a small magic eye that could see the situation in the city clearly.

Although Jason Pei had been a player for many years before coming here, he didn't know there was such a setting in the tower.

It should be said that initially players could not enter this tower and were not qualified to enter. As for the later period... after this place was involved in war, this tower was abandoned and the magic circle was destroyed, so naturally it no longer had this function.

Iger sat on the sofa chair brought in by the magician's servant in the tower, and together with Jason Pei, he used his magic eyes to observe those who had just entered the city.

Casey City itself is very small. It can be called a small town, although it is not a city. In the game, it is the most well-known initial novice village. In this world, it can only be described as a backward countryside, a border area of   the Esmia Empire, far away from the capital.

Because the place is small, any few strangers would be very conspicuous, and this time, a group of them appeared at once.

Jason Pei first looked towards the door, and indeed found a person whom he had not seen when he first came. On this person's head was written "Game Guide" in white letters in very small fonts, but the people around Casey City ignored him.

Jason Pei knew what was going on. It should be said that in the early days, there were many similar service-type NPCs, which seemed to be visible only to players, and had a ghost-like setting.

Then, he turned his attention to the players who had just entered the city.

Sure enough, they all have a translucent light silver ID on top of their heads, which is not conspicuous. Only players can see this, and the surrounding NPCs cannot see the words on their ID above their heads.

"I remember that the hidden ID function appeared two or three years after the game came out. They can't hide their IDs now, right?" Jason Pei thought to himself.

Although it is also a game panel, Jason Pei’s game panel is actually the player panel after many years of operation of Bix’s Cube. It not only has the function of hiding the ID, but also can hide the upgrade special effects. It is a standard mage profession panel.

These new players only have one career choice, which is swordsman. It is still a long time before mages appear.

Eagle next to him frowned, "What's wrong with these people? They behave so strangely."

Jason Pei looked at the players who were standing stupidly or wandering around like zombies with unfocused eyes on the street and could hardly hold back his laughter. He knew without a second thought that these people were taking screenshots and playing the forum crazily.

It's still relatively okay now, as the game hasn't yet released the face-pinching feature. When it was first released, because data could not be imported, the holographic face-pinching made many players look very weird, which was really funny.

The face-pinching function is not turned on, so everyone's appearance is adjusted up or down based on their actual looks, so at least their looks are not weird.

However, I saw some people almost clinging to the wall, trying to bite the stone with their teeth, lying on the ground and staring at the ground like lunatics, and some running to the side and staring at an old lady in her sixties or seventies, making her face pale and trembling...

To describe it as "weird" is a bit too mild.

Jason Pei opened the forum and found that it was so lively and popular that it was like the forum he was familiar with.

"There are only 200 players in the first beta test, right? The forum is already so popular..."

After reading the posts, I found out that most of them were actually people who did not make it to the internal beta test. There were also a large number of people who were kneeling down and begging their fathers to make sure they were selected for the second internal beta test. You know, the second batch of internal beta test was just one month later, and everyone thought it was a joke or a scam at first. Now that the game really appeared, many people regretted it.

"I'm shocked. The authenticity is so high, so high, so high. They claim it's 95% authentic? I think it's more than that! It's not an exaggeration to say it's 100% authentic!"

"I've played a lot of games and devices that claim to be virtual reality, but damn, there's no comparison. This is too realistic!"

"Generally, games will have some animation style. Even if they are advertised as realistic games, there will definitely be a gap between the actual modeling and reality, unless it is a special effects movie... But do you know how much money is spent per second for a slightly more reliable special effects movie picture?"

"No more words to say, [sticker][sticker][sticker], see for yourself."

"It's indistinguishable from reality, and the special effects are even better than those in the highest-level special effects movies!"

"Look at the accuracy of this wall [texture], it's amazing."

"I'm sorry to say it's a special effects movie. The graphics of this game are so much better than any special effects movie. If it weren't for the game panel, I would have thought I traveled through time."

"Yes, that's the feeling. It's too real!"

...

Today's forum directly presented an explosive reaction through various pictures and videos. Unfortunately, Jason Pei could not see the reactions outside the forum, but he could see the situations of various websites forwarded by people who did not win the internal test qualification but were attracted from other places.

For example, when someone posted a short video of a game on various video websites, some people questioned which movie it was a promotional clip from, and no one believed that it was a holographic game.

In addition, the screenshots that appeared on various forums directly attracted more and more people to the official forum of the BixCube.

Less than half an hour after the game was launched today, Jason Pei saw the forum was flooded with people.

Countless people are asking for the beta code. After knowing that the beta codes of players who entered the game today can no longer be transferred to others, the screen is filled with people begging to be selected into the second batch of beta testers.

The second batch of internal testing will start in a month, and everyone is lamenting that they have to rely on the big guys in the forum who are currently in the game to survive for this month?

Jason Pei looked at all kinds of funny posts, including how many of them were on the hot searches. The terrifying popularity of the comments under the hot searches brought a terrifying crowd to the forum.

"If it was really a small website, it would have been paralyzed by the crowds by now." However, the game forum of Bix Cube was still stable and smooth, without any lag.

In fact, some people who are playing the game are frantically taking screenshots and recording short videos, while others start playing the game from the very beginning and begin to explore this "Newbie Village".

Soon, the entire city of Casey became visibly in chaos.
