Chapter 155

In a corner of the bustling city, Lin Xiu sat lazily in front of his computer, his slender fingers tapping casually on the keyboard while his gaze wandered somewhat. After graduating from college, he had fallen into a state of bewilderment, and his dissatisfaction with work made him increasingly indulge in the virtual world. At the other end of the city, Bai Zhi sat in a cozy room, her delicate fingers gently stroking the equipment of her in-game character on the computer screen. She was a girl who loved fantasy, and for her, gaming was a magical realm full of infinite possibilities. An accidental game guild recruitment brought Lin Xiu and Bai Zhi together. In the game, Lin Xiu chose to be a Star Swordsman, and the Astral Dawn Sword in his hand seemed to come alive; Bai Zhi became a Destiny Priestess, and her Scepter of Fate and Order exuded a mysterious glow. At first, they merely completed simple quests together, occasionally chatting in the game channel and sharing small joys of the game.
