Getting A System In A Modern World

53 Playing A VR Game(II), Going To Venezuela

Silas left the cockpit and started looking around the aircraft. Since it will take more than 8 hours to reach his destination, then he has all the time to look around.

He walked out of the cockpit and walked towards a door connected to the cabin, and when he opened it, he saw the galley (kitchen).

It is to be noted that Silas has not seen a single person since he boarded the aircraft. He was expecting to see some people working as staffs but he saw no one. All he could see is a big empty galley that is very visually captivating.

Silas walked in and started looking around. He was finally able to understand why there was no one in the galley when he saw a massive holographic touch-screen interface pop up at a side of the galley.

What does this holographic touch-screen interface do? It can be used to order and customize your food.

Neat right? That was Silas thought.

Silas placed his order on the screen and a few seconds later, it was ready, a plate of macaroni and cheese with fried chicken.

Silas picked up the chicken from the plate and took a bite.

"So good...," Silas said with his eyes closed in ecstasy. It felt like he was having a foodgasm.

"It tastes even way better than Serah and Emma's cooking" Silas said to himself, as he relishes the delicious taste of the food in his mouth.

Silas left the galley with his food to eat before he continued looking around the aircraft.

Other features in the aircraft include a lavatory, a bathroom, a different section for the bedroom, another section that has an office and each place, all has a holographic touch-screen.

The only not-so disappointing thing is that it doesn't have a swimming pool.

"Meh.. Who needs it?," Silas said to himself, as he plops onto the bed.

"LUNAR, what's the progress with the games?"

{All completed.}

"Nice, let's have at it," Silas said as he put on the Gear excitedly.

After putting on the Gear, its home screen popped up. The previous blank home screen now has multiple game apps icons.

Silas smiled in satisfaction when he saw this.

Silas looked at the number of apps in the Gear's home screen and felt that it was unbelievable how LUNAR was able to recreate the virtual reality version of the top PC and console games in just seven hours.

Not one, two or three but more than a dozen of these games.

No game creating studio, programmers or group of individuals will be able to achieve such a feat.

'I guess this is the reason why people are scared of AI taking their jobs.'

Silas pushed the unnecessary thoughts out of his head and turned his attention to the most important thing at the moment, choosing the first game to play.

"What's it gonna be?.....," Silas said to himself as his gaze shifted between the multiple game app icons.

After some few seconds of unnecessary self-contemplation and torturous inner battle, Silas finally made his decision.

'Let's see how good the virtual reality version of games are.'

Without much thought, Silas chose a game app and clicked on its icon.

Immediately, Silas felt himself losing consciousness. This was the same feeling he experienced when he used the Pod, and the reason why he's experiencing the same thing now is because he gave the Gear a command to switch to unconscious mode, after the game launched.

The reason why Silas chose the unconscious mode this time is because he wants to sleep while playing the game. So, he decided to kill two birds with a stone, gaming and sleeping. Cool right?

After Silas mentally clicked on the game app icon, it launched and the game company's logo was displayed, and the game started loading.

It's to be noted that LUNAR didn't create an entirely different game. What she did was what Silas asked of her and that is to recreate the VR version of popular PC games.

The game's virtual reality version that LUNAR recreated is very similar to the console and PC version, except that it's the combination of all the game's titles that are still being played.

Except for some minor differences, it would feel like one is playing the game on PC or console, except that it doesn't need a controller for console, or a keyboard and mouse.

Also, the virtual reality version created by LUNAR is using the same player matching mechanics of the game's PC and Console version. Which means Silas can be matched with players on both PC and Console, and also across titles.

It's just like using the MOD version of an app, though it's slightly different, the core still remains the same.

To those curious about the game, it's COD.

…

After the game finished loading, a new screen appeared where Silas was asked to choose his sign up/login method.

Silas quickly did that and after he was done, he was taken to the game mode screen and was asked to choose. He quickly chose the multiplayer mode and he was taken to the player matching screen.

The matchmaking was done immediately and Silas got into his first match.

Silas saw his character appear on the map's spawn point.

The first thing Silas did after the game started was to check for the differences. He brought one of his hands to his face and touched it, and he felt like he was touching something solid.

Silas' eyes widened in surprise at this. He expected it but the difference between expectations and reality is very huge.

Excitedly, Silas decided to take things further. He did some movements by twirling his body, wiggling his fingers, dangling his leg, a jump and a light jog.

The movements he made were fluid and perfect, and it felt like it was his real body and not a virtual character.

"This is going to be wild," Silas said to himself with a chuckle.

'LUNAR, system, you're the best!'

Silas decided it was time to join the game as he moved from the spawn point and started looking for members of the opponent's team.

It didn't take before he saw a moving figure from his side-view and he swiftly turned around, and pulled the trigger.

The assault rifle, M4, roared as the bullet was released from the chamber, shooting towards its victim head, with a blinding speed and lethality.

First kill and a headshot!

The rest of the match held no suspense as Silas completely dominated it with superior movement freedom and… skills.

These perks allowed Silas to finish the match with an MVP award as he also broke all of the game's highest recorded kills in a single match for an individual, with more than 95 kills and 0 death.

Silas' gameplay left the opponent team at the point of tears, and his teammates exhilarated.

After the match ended, Silas started his next matchmaking. All of Silas' following games saw him win and single-handedly decimating the opposing team.

Silas continued to play and dominate each match with high staggering amount of kills and crazy gameplay that attracted the attention of other players and they gave him a nickname, The Reaper.

[A/N: If you cringed, I also cringed.]

There was even a match where he got paired up with an opponent's team player from one of his previous matches.

The player, WarMachine99's reaction was to scream in happiness.

"Yes!... I got paired with The Reaper!"

That particular game's result was no different from the previous games as Silas finished it with a MVP award and a high kill count.

Silas played a total of more than 30 matches which brought him so much popularity that he was being discussed in some game's forums.

Forum name: COD Maniacs.

DarksoulKiller: "Guys, I was paired with this player on COD MWIII today and something unbelievable happened!

RogueRaptor: "Come on dude, just tell us already."

DarksoulKiller: "Ok. I was paired with this player and can you believe that no one else in our team had any kills apart from him. This player destroyed the other team single-handedly and the score was 472 to 0!"

ClusterStrikeSpammer: "Dude wtf?! How is that even possible?"

SilentAssualt: Bud thinks we are idiots. How can someone achieve that type of score? And his teammates have no kills apart from him? Come on, dude, this is impossible even if every other person on the team is a bot."

DarksoulKiller: "I know you guys won't believe me and I'm very happy that I recorded it. I will send it now. Also, fuck you Silent, I'm not a bot."

SilentAssualt: "Definitely what a bot would say. Just send the video, man."

Few minutes later after the video was uploaded...

StormTrooper87: The fuck is with those movements?! What's the spec of the PC he's playing on?"

DarksoulKiller: "Bro, I was left speechless. I can't even imagine how crazy the PC specs must be to achieve such movements. Silent, why are you quiet? Cat got your tongue?"

StealthSniper: "Honestly I don't think this type of movements are possible with any PC available. Heck, even high quality custom built can't achieve this. That player is moving among the opponents with no other weapon, except a dagger, and he killed all of them multiple times without even dying once! Absolutely impossible!"

SilentAssualt: "I'm using what's presumably one of the PCs with the best spec for gaming and I can't even achieve movements like those. I'm very sure there's no PC that can allow a gamer to achieve those type of fluid movements."

RogueRaptor: "This is just so f*cking unreal!"

The forum that day experienced its highest number of online members and visitors as a lot of people visited it to watch the video.

The video went viral on the internet and different players started uploading the videos they recorded of Silas' gameplay on their YouTube channel giving them lots of views …..and money.

*****

The person responsible for the chaos was looking out the window of his private jet as it was landing at Caracas International Airport, Venezuela.

Silas didn't actually put the results he achieved in his eyes. He expected that much after he saw the amount of movement freedom his game character has.

Though he expected it, Silas still felt that it was amazing that such a type of gameplay could be achieved and it's all thanks to the system and LUNAR.
