"Jack, are you crazy? Why did you sell the company?" "Do you know this is our future!" Looking at Lily's angry face, Jack found it a bit funny. He couldn't understand how he had fallen for this money - grabbing woman in his past life.
Yes, Jack was a reincarnator. In his past life, this money - grabbing woman had joined hands with outsiders to frame him and snatch all his resources. The whole thing started with an open - world multiplayer online survival game in a post - apocalyptic setting, "Doom Dawn". Once this game was launched, it was highly sought after by people all over the world and almost swept across the entire planet. But unexpectedly, on the first anniversary of the game's launch, "Doom Dawn" descended into the real world. Bloodthirsty zombies, ferocious beasts, and countless indescribable terrifying creatures appeared on the planet. Killing monsters to get equipment, surviving in the wild, awakening special abilities, and leveling up by clearing dungeons... Everything that originally only existed in the game was now reflected in the real world. Mankind had entered the end - times!
Jack was a veteran player of "Doom Dawn". When the game descended into reality, he not only inherited his character's special ability but also everything in his account. So after the end - times, he managed to live a decent life and protected Lily for three whole years. But he never expected that the person he had protected at the cost of his life would betray him because of the resources in his hands.
To Jack's surprise, he was reincarnated and returned to three days before the game descended. With his enemies right in front of him, Jack wasn't in a hurry to take revenge. He had plenty of ways to deal with them once the end - times arrived! The most important thing now was to spend money in "Doom Dawn" before it descended into reality.
What's the most important thing in a survival game in a post - apocalyptic setting? Food, equipment, and abilities! Jack remembered that at the moment when the end - times descended, all the food in the real world was contaminated. If you ate these contaminated things, you would turn into a bloodthirsty zombie. And whatever a zombie ate within an hour before it mutated would drop as a game item after the player killed it. So killing zombies was an essential process, and at this time, strength was crucial. Jack had to arm his character in the account to the strongest possible level before "Doom Dawn" descended.
As the most money - consuming mobile game on the planet, Jack sold the company to get the money and spent it all on the game.
"You're still smiling. Tell me quickly, where did you spend all the money?" "If you don't tell the truth, I'll break up with you!" Lily shouted, her face red with anger. She had long regarded Jack's fortune as her own. How could she let this "duck" slip out of her mouth?
Jack sneered inwardly. 'Good grief, what an ugly sight. Haven't you taken enough money from me?' Roughly estimated, in the more than a year they had been together, Jack had given her more than a billion in cash! 'Well, I really need the money. Let's get back what you took from me first.' Jack smiled faintly: "Lily, that small company isn't worth keeping. I cashed out the money for a great project!" Then, under Lily's shocked gaze, he added, "It's an investment that's guaranteed to make a profit."
"Too bad the money from the company is only nine hundred million. The return will only be ten times that amount."
After hearing this, Lily's eyes widened. "What? A ten - fold guaranteed return?" Lily was completely shocked. She knew Jack very well. This guy was definitely a business genius. He had built a company worth nine hundred million from scratch. If Jack was going all in, she was a bit tempted.
After thinking for a while, she said, "Jack, actually, I have some money too. How about we invest it together?" "Anyway, we'll get married sooner or later. It'll all be our joint property after marriage. Just take it for the investment!" "I trust you!" After saying that, she blushed and leaned in.
Hearing this, Jack curled his lips. This vicious woman could change her attitude faster than turning the pages of a book. Just now she was talking about breaking up, and now she's talking about getting married. I don't believe a word of it! But Jack managed to get the one hundred million Lily had on hand quite smoothly. After a lot of sweet - talking, Lily left the villa with high hopes.
"Let you live for three more days!" Jack watched her leave with a cold look in his eyes. Then he opened the "Doom Dawn" mobile game. Along with a strange piece of music, a hideous zombie lunged at the screen, and then a login prompt popped up.
"Dear VIP6 player, The Suit - Clad Thug, you haven't logged in for an hour. As a welcome - back gift, if you recharge 648, you'll get double the gold coins."
Truly worthy of being called the most money - grabbing game. There was a welcome - back gift just for not logging in for an hour!
"I like it!" Jack smiled brightly and immediately clicked to recharge.
After the game descended into reality, the planet's currency system completely collapsed and was replaced by the game's currency. That meant the game's currency would be the money that circulated in the real world in the future!
"Congratulations, player. Your recharge was successful! You've received 1296 gold coins." "Congratulations, player. You've activated the food package. For a special price of 328, you'll get 100 berries, 100 loaves of bread, 50 chocolates..." "Congratulations, player. You've activated the material package..." "Congratulations, player. You've activated the equipment package..."
A series of such great deals popped up, more than a dozen in total, and Jack bought them all. Then Jack recharged another 100 million in his account!
"Congratulations, player The Suit - Clad Thug. Your VIP level has been upgraded to VIP10." "VIP10 privilege: Infinite backpack space."
As the system's voice sounded, a virtual panel appeared in front of Jack, which was the storage area in the game, an infinite - space backpack!
Maybe it was because of his reincarnation, but he found a bug in the game. "Doom Dawn" was still three days away from descending, but the storage area in his game account had already been digitized. Although only the food section could be freely accessed for storage and retrieval, and the equipment and material sections were still grayed out and couldn't be opened, Jack was still overjoyed.
What did this mean? It meant that Jack could stockpile food in his character's backpack before "Doom Dawn" descended into the real world. The food put into the game in advance wouldn't be contaminated. This was a huge bug.
Everyone knew how scarce food was in "Doom Dawn". Non - paying players spent 60% of their time hungry. In the game, being hungry just meant running a bit slower and having less strength. But in the real world, it could actually kill you. Jack had experienced this in his past life.
Saying that, Jack opened the player trading area in the game, found the food section, and started clicking like crazy. He spent 800 million and bought all the food in the trading area.
After discovering this bug, Jack had a bold idea! He not only wanted to stockpile food but also short - sell the food market in "Doom Dawn" and even monopolize the entire food market in the end - times!
