After the archive is damaged, I live in another world

Xu Mu released his hand and said, "Nice to meet you. I'm Xu Mu, and I've just arrived."

"Nice to meet you! I didn't expect to see my comrades before I leave... My name is Chen Wansan, so I'm your senior, right?"

Chen Wansan smiled and jumped off the chair.

It was only at this time that Xu Mu discovered something unusual.

He looked at Chen Wansan's empty left sleeve and asked curiously, "Brother Chen, your left hand——"

Chen Wansan smiled slightly and said, "It was bitten off by a monster three years ago when I was adventuring."

"what?"

"I'm lucky enough to have survived. If you had come a few years earlier, you could have met other players. But now... some are dead, some are disabled, and everyone has returned to Earth."

is not it?

Xu Mu frowned and asked, "Is taking risks that dangerous? Brother Chen, you came here after defeating the King of Eternal Solitude, right? Logically speaking, your level shouldn't be that bad!"

Chen Wansan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The King of Eternal Loneliness deceived us."

"...What do you mean?"

"In the game, the King of Eternal Solitude didn't use her full strength. She only used 30% of her power at most. After we defeated her, we were all very impatient. We thought, 'Even the oldest and strongest final demon king was defeated by us, so aren't we invincible?' Actually, that's not the case."

Ugh.

Chen Wansan touched his empty sleeves, with a look of helplessness in his eyes.

He continued, "Of course, the strength of us 'players' is top-tier on Blue Star. But there are differences between real combat and gaming. The most obvious difference is that we get tired and exhausted, unable to maintain a good mental state, and making all sorts of outrageous judgments. Even more difficult is—getting hurt is really painful!"

Chen Wansan was still frightened and showed some fear.

Xu Mu nodded in agreement.

Chen Wansan turned to look at him and asked, "Xu Mu, what do you want from me?"

Xu Mu said hurriedly: "Nothing... I just arrived and didn't know what to do, so I thought of coming to you for advice."

"Then you should go find Pete. Pete lives at 7 Town Street. He's doing very well these days and has a 20-man adventuring team under his command. That's quite impressive."

what……

The master on Zhengong Street?

Xu Mu shook his head and said, "Pete has been attacked. I just came back from the town's public street. Pete was covered in blood. It is said that he was sprayed by the Sakura Fire Dragon and he is no longer human!"

"Ah! Even he flipped over! Sigh - taking the risk is too great, it's really not a good choice!"

Chen Wansan felt very sorry, and Xu Mu felt the same way.

He looked around and asked, "Brother Chen, are you opening a factory now? Are you hiring workers? I think I can do it."

Chen Wansan was startled, then shook his head. "You saw what I was about to do... After I lost my arm, not only did my strength decrease significantly, but I also felt reluctant to take risks. But life always has to have something to look forward to, right? So I sold all my weapons and equipment and started this beverage factory. I originally thought I could use modern business thinking to build a career on Canglan Star, but I didn't expect—sigh."

Xu Mu looked at the dilapidated state of the workshop and asked, "Are you losing money?"

"I lost all my pants. After three years of preparation, I finally managed the production process. Last month, I tried to make a thousand bottles of carrot juice, but I didn't sell a single one!"

Chen Wansan, dejected.

He sat down on the chair, waved his hands and said, "Forget it, I won't serve you anymore. I'm going to commit suicide and return to Earth to inherit the tens of billions of dollars."

"No! I finally came to this other world, how can I just…"

Xu Mu subconsciously advised him, but suddenly felt something was wrong.

He paused, looked up and asked, "What did you just say? A 10 billion fortune?"

Chen Wansan nodded. "My family has a little money, and the old man has always wanted me to join the family business to gain experience. But I'm too proud and always wanted to make a name for myself... This trip to Canglan Star can be considered a great asset in my life, so it wasn't in vain."

what.

Ahhh...

Xu Mu looked up at the rope hanging from the beam and said, "Brother Chen, I can't bear to see others die in front of me. So, I'll leave first and come back in half an hour to collect your body."

He stood up and walked out the door.

It turns out that people cannot be generalized. Look at Brother Chen, huh?

A fortune of tens of billions!

Oh my God, if Xu Mu had a fortune of tens of billions, he would have committed suicide the first second he arrived on Canglan Star.

What different world or not? Don’t stop me from enjoying my life.

"Xu Mu."

A bottle of carrot juice was handed to him from behind his shoulder. After Xu Mu took it, he turned around and saw Chen Wansan.

Chen Wansan smiled and said, "Try it."

"Oh."

Xu Mu unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip——

Sweet and sour, rich and mellow aroma.

Xu Mu nodded and said, "This tastes good! Brother Chen, why can't this thing be sold?"

Chen Wansan frowned slightly. "There's definitely a market for this. I'm very confident in my carrot juice! But the key question is how to open up this market. Nowadays, no one in the Free City likes fruit juice drinks. They prefer alcohol."

what……

Xu Mu looked at the carrot juice in his hand and said nothing.

Chen Wansan continued, "How about it? Do you want to help me? I just thought about it and realized it would be too pathetic to just leave like this! I spent three years figuring out the production process, and to die like this without leaving anything behind... I really can't accept that!"

"..."

Xu Mu, doesn't really want to take risks.

I don’t know what to do.

Cooperating with Chen Wansan to open a factory seems to be a good choice.

but……

Xu Mu didn't know how he could help. He knew nothing about marketing.

Seeing that he didn't agree immediately, Chen Wansan quickly said, "Xu Mu, don't be so quick to refuse. I'm not doing this just for myself, but also for players like you."

Xu Muqi asked, "What do you mean?"

"We players come from Earth, a relatively peaceful world quite different from the Blue Planet. We Earthlings haven't experienced much violence, and we can't quite grasp the cruelty of 'adventure'."

Chen Wansan patted his empty left sleeve.

He continued, "I've paid a price, I've experienced cruelty, and I deeply understand: adventure isn't for everyone. So... I want to establish a business on the Blue Planet on behalf of all players, all Earthlings. I want to give players a choice, a choice to enjoy life in another world without taking risks."

"..."

Xu Mu remained silent, listening to Chen Wansan's wish.

The sun set on the horizon. From Xu Mu's perspective, the bright red sunset fell behind Chen Wansan's head, and the Buddha's light was shining brightly.

Chapter 8 #008 The Way Forward

Chen Wansan, Brother Chen.

gone.

After delivering a speech, he hit his head against a wall and returned to Earth to inherit his tens of billions of dollars in assets.

Xu Mu was speechless. You said this person...

If you want to die, just die. Why bother with all that big talk and give Xu Mu false hope?

So it means "help you do it" instead of "do it together"?

Okay.

What to do now? He is the only player left in the world.

However, Brother Chen did not leave nothing behind. He left Xu Mu a set of "fully automatic carrot juice production equipment".

This machine has a very high degree of automation. It only needs to put carrots into the feed port. After a series of magic circles inside, it automatically completes the processes of cutting, squeezing, pouring, and packaging, and directly produces bottles of carrot juice from the discharge port.

According to Brother Chen, the cost of this machine was as much as 150,000 gold coins, which was all his assets.

He had nothing good to leave for Xu Mu, so he gave it to Xu Mu along with his hopes.

In this regard.

Xu Mu felt nothing inside and even wanted to laugh.

Before his death, Brother Chen gave Xu Mu a ticket and said, "Xu Mu, this is a ticket for the 'Holy Spirit Duel'. Go to the Municipal Arena and check it out! There, you might get the answer."

Municipal Arena?

Xu Mu didn't understand what was going on. He put the carrot juice production device, which was as big as an attic, into his backpack and took a taxi to the municipal arena.

The driver was a chatterbox. He glanced at Xu Mu and said, "Hey, you're going to watch the Holy Spirit Duel? Today's the relegation match. I'm very optimistic about Guns N' Roses; they'll definitely make it to the A-League!"

"?"

Xu Mu was confused. He asked, "What is the A-League?"

"Scared?! What do you not know?"

"Please excuse me and tell me about it."

The taxi driver glanced at Xu Mu and said, "You may not know about the A-League, but you must know about the World Cup, right?"

Xu Muqi asked, "Playing football?"

"What about playing football and boxing? You really don't even know about the World Cup. Where are you from?"

"Ah... I, I'm from the mountains."

Xu Mu has been playing games for three years. Logically speaking, it is unlikely that he does not know the common knowledge in the game.

But he really didn't know anything about this "First Division League" and "World Cup".

In the game "Blue Planet", there are two places that cannot be entered - one is the brothel and the other is the arena.

It’s understandable that you can’t enter a brothel.

Not suitable for children;

Xu Mu was a little confused as to why he couldn't enter the arena.

However, the game content was very rich, so Xu Mu didn't care much about it.

Now take a look...

There seems to be another mystery.

Seeing Xu Mu was an amateur, the taxi driver stopped talking and just kept driving. A moment later, the car stopped in front of the Municipal Arena. Xu Mu looked around and saw that the square in front of the arena was packed with people and bustling with activity.

At the end of the square, there is a billboard.

There are six people printed on it, three on each side, standing in opposition.

Looking more closely, the three on the left are "Guns N' Roses" and the three on the right are "Superstars of the Century." In the middle, there are two lines of large characters: "A battle of mighty powers, who will emerge victorious? A raging war is about to break out!"

Even if he had never eaten pork, he had seen pigs run. At this moment, Xu Mu finally understood -

A martial arts competition.

What's new.

only……

"Why are players prohibited from entering the arena used for competitions? Are they worried that the players' strength will be too high and the balance will be disrupted?"

With doubts, Xu Mu passed through the ticket gate and entered the audience.

Thunderous cheers came over him, Xu Mu sat in his seat, the game was about to begin.

The host, clutching the microphone, announced, "Dear audience! The relegation match is about to begin. Today's match will determine the final spot in the A-League! Will the newcomers 'Guns N' Roses' rise to prominence? Or will 'Century Superstars' secure their spot? Let's wait and see! Now, please, six contestants, enter the 'Duel Chamber'. The match will begin!"

Duel pod?
