Relax, I'm not some troublemaker from a role-playing game.

Chapter 52 Reality Invasion, the End of the Story

"It's another beautiful day."

At the same time, Bai Xi climbed out of the game pod, looked at the blue sky and white clouds of N City outside the window, and couldn't help but sigh.

Then I casually opened my phone and took a look.

Well, thankfully, my family didn't call at an inopportune time.

There were only two or three greetings from Bai Miaomiao, nothing else. It seems like nothing serious happened.

Just thinking about it made Bai Xi feel a little lighter. But soon, she fell silent again.

Although it's carefree, how long can such days last?

He frowned, pondered briefly, and fell silent.

But soon, he put the matter out of his mind and pretended that he didn't need to think about it.

Whatever. Thinking about it is pointless anyway.

Suddenly, Bai Xi heard a ding-dong sound.

He paused for a moment, then turned to look at the door; it was the doorbell ringing.

"Someone's already here so early?"

He glanced up at the clock and murmured in surprise.

But the bigger problem is, who will come looking for me during this time?

He didn't have many friends. Jiang Lingyi was in S City, and Bai Miaomiao was closer to him, but she was also in S City.

It's not very realistic for family members to come directly to their door. Those people probably wouldn't want to come all the way to N City to find them.

Even if they did come, they would never ring the doorbell so politely.

But I've been buying things online lately, so it's not really practical to just have a delivery person.

Bai Xi thought for a moment, but still stood up and gently pushed open the door.

Standing at the door was a short deliveryman. Bai Xi was taken aback for a moment, and then saw him hand her a package.

There was also a line of small print pasted on it.

Please leave a positive review, thank you!

Is he/she disabled?

Bai Xi took the package casually, thinking absentmindedly, and asked casually:

Who delivered this package?

The deliveryman seemed to be taken aback for a moment, then quickly pulled out a piece of paper and began writing on it with lightning speed.

In a daze, Bai Xi seemed to see a few white hairs peeking out from under the deliveryman's helmet.

However, the deliveryman was wearing a mask and glasses that obscured his vision. Bai Xi felt that the eyes looked quite familiar, but she couldn't remember anything more specific.

But the deliveryman had already written a note and hurriedly showed it to him.

[Due to user privacy concerns, we cannot view this information, but the user left a note saying they sent you something you liked.]

Bai Xi glanced at the address on the package. It was delivered from City S.

Shouldn't the courier deliver this package? Has your food delivery industry now been dragged into the courier delivery business?

Bai Xi mentally complained while casually giving the deliveryman a good review and putting away the package.

So the deliveryman bowed slightly in acknowledgment and turned to leave.

The moment she turned around, Bai Xi felt a sudden pang of fear, as if she had sensed something familiar, but the next moment, she forgot about it.

He went back to his room and opened the package.

It was sent from City S, and I like it?

It must have been given by Jiang Lingyi or by her family.

I hope it's the former. But she hasn't mentioned it recently, and she doesn't seem like the type of person who enjoys preparing surprises.

Therefore, it's more likely that it's something your own family members did. Prepare for the worst.

As Bai Xi pondered this, he raised his hand, humming an unknown phrase in Latin, and casually opened the package.

Then, after a slight pause, he picked up the badge inside and saw the note underneath it.

[To our respected investigator, Baek Hee]

[You are the seventh investigator to achieve an S-rank module rating. A new event is about to launch in the game, and we cordially invite you to participate.]

This event will be conducted in a modular format, and only investigators who have received an A-level or S-level rating are invited to participate.

[The event is scheduled to begin on September 16th during standard game time. Please note that this event will take place in Sunset City, involves certain aspects of the game's universe, and will be streamed globally. We hope you can participate.]

Guided by Yog-Sothoth, may we meet in the City of Sunset.

[Leave a message from the official development team of the game "Sunset City"]

[PS: We've left a little surprise for you, we hope you like it]

"Is it that cool?"

Bai Xi placed the badge under the light, and the sword-shaped badge engraved with the Sword of Absolute Darkness shone brightly, so dazzling.

September 16th, that's tomorrow. So, one more run tonight, and tomorrow night's the new event?

The production capacity is much higher than I expected.

The new event is even related to bubbles, which looks quite interesting.

He put away the badge, feeling a surge of luck, but then he heard his phone ring.

The call connected, and Jiang Lingyi's voice came through.

"Bai Xi, have you received the official reward?"

"Oh, you got it too? Let me tell you, the badge of the Sword of Darkness is really cool."

Bai Xi said this to Jiang Lingyi with a happy smile, but Jiang Lingyi only remained silent for a moment before sighing.

"Yeah, mine is pretty cool too."

She looked at the weapons displayed alongside the badges and couldn't help but feel a headache coming on:

"It would have been better if this thing hadn't been delivered with the hand cannon."

"Huh, what's that?"

Bai Xi was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened, and he felt a kind of magical reality.

"Did the official website send you a model of Seraphine's Trial?"

"No, it's a hand cannon, the kind that can be fired. I just came from the firing range, and I even have special abilities."

Jiang Lingyi said calmly. On the other end of the phone, Bai Xi's mouth dropped open slightly.

"You mean, the game developers gave you a real item?!"

"I really want to say no, but unfortunately, reality tells me I can't say that."

Jiang Lingyi sighed, speaking with regret and helplessness.

"The titles are working too. I just did a physical check, and both titles are applying. Didn't you notice?"

"I, I..."

Bai Xi was stunned for a moment, then felt a little embarrassed.

He didn't notice! The "Jump Slash Master" skill is an unlocked skill; he doesn't usually use it.

As for the Sword of Darkness, he has memorized so many incantations, who could possibly remember one more if it suddenly appeared!

"This game is more complicated than we thought, Baek Hee."

After a moment, Jiang Lingyi spoke.

"So what should we do?"

"I just came to let you know. Go about your business as usual. If something really happens, the government's response will definitely be faster than ours."

Jiang Lingyi sighed and said, "So let's keep playing. If we really want to do something, we should keep playing games and see just how deep the water in this game really is."

"So, that's why I wanted to ask you this. Baek Hee, what did you receive as a gift?"

"I want to know just how far this game has come."

Jiang Lingyi's voice was so calm, while Bai Xi spoke blankly:

"Me? I didn't, I remember here... wait!"

In an instant, Bai Xi recalled those familiar eyes.

In the distance, Alice took off her mask and hat, her white hair fluttering in the wind. Holding her phone, she smiled.

She turned back to look at Bai Xi's house from afar and let out a long sigh of relief.

I've finally found you, my friend.
