Chapter 11: The Only Virtual World Game

In this world, there are moments that can change a person's destiny, or even rewrite the history of mankind. For Chad Lee, that moment has arrived. He is suffering from a terminal illness, his life like a flickering candle in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment. However, just as he was about to give up hope, a new turning point appeared - the Genetic Evolution Method. But is there really no threshold for this mysterious learning method?

"Ladies and gentlemen, you might have heard that learning the Genetic Evolution Method is extremely difficult, and a slight mistake can cause irreversible harm to the body," Angus, the secretary-general, said through the live broadcast, his voice reaching every corner, with a smile on his face as if he held the key to the future of mankind. "Fortunately, we have the virtual helmet, which allows experimenters to learn safely in a virtual world."

With Angus's announcement, the decision of the entire Blue Star Alliance was like a thunderbolt, shocking everyone's hearts. "Now, I announce that all humans on Blue Star who are over six years old will receive a virtual helmet for free. In that virtual world, you can freely choose any one of the ten evolution methods."

These words were like an electric current, instantly igniting the passion in the hearts of Chad Lee, Quincy Shawn, and others. People all over the world cheered and jumped, as if they had seen the dawn of a new life.

"For young children with terminal illnesses, even if they are not yet six years old, they can also apply to receive a virtual helmet," Angus said, his words full of warmth. "Inside the virtual helmet, we have created a game called 'Evolution of Life' to help everyone learn the evolution method."

"Evolution of Life" is not just a game, it is a miracle, a miracle that combines the crystallization of civilization on Yinghuo Mars. Its existence is much more difficult than creating a city with a population of hundreds of millions. This game can not only teach people the genetic evolution method but also collect the physical evolution data of the players. The evolution data of billions of people will continue to accumulate and summarize, and in the future, we humans will create a stronger evolution method, making us stronger and longer-lived.

"In the personal space of the game world, you can also study and conduct scientific research. I believe that as long as we humans work together, we can become stronger and go further in this vast universe," Angus said with pride. "Technology changes mankind. From today on, we humans will enter a new era!"

With Angus's words, people all over the world were immersed in excitement. In the Cherry Blossom Country, people were looking forward to the opening of the game at 10 p.m. on July 25th in Edo time; in the Peacock Country, people were eager at 6:30 p.m. on July 25th in Peacock City time; in the White Eagle Federation, players were ready at 8 a.m. on July 25th in Metropolis time; in the Roman Country, people were enthusiastic at 1 p.m. on July 25th in Fog City time.

In Jiangnan Province, Mingyue City, in the home of Jamie Smith, the family was sitting in the living room discussing the upcoming virtual helmet collection. May Lee said excitedly, "The country has issued a notice, and the arrangements for collecting virtual helmets in various regions of the country have come out." Old Mr. Xu also checked his screen and said with a smile, "The press conference just ended, and the message was sent, the efficiency is really high."

The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.

Jamie Smith also checked, and there were detailed arrangements in various places across the country, and Mingyue City was no exception. He finished reading and said, "The helmet will be available for collection at 1 p.m. tomorrow, and there are twelve collection points in our West District. Let's apply now, and we'll choose the nearest collection point - the stadium."

At 5 p.m. on July 22, at the West District Stadium in Mingyue City, the Smith family was in line. Since each family had a specified time slot, they only waited for three minutes before it was their turn. Jamie Smith held the box he received, full of curiosity and anticipation. This is a new item, although humans have imagined it before, but now is the first time they have truly come into contact with it.

"Let's go home," said Jamie Smith, his father, mother, grandfather, and May Lee and her parents, a group of people left the stadium together. And inside the stadium, hundreds of people were still entering in a continuous stream, some entering and some leaving, and the people who left were all happily holding boxes.

At this moment, all over China, and all over the world, people of different colors were receiving virtual helmets. Their eyes were full of anticipation, as if they had already seen the world of 100% virtual reality.

As the world's people looked forward to it, the time finally came to 9 p.m. on July 25th. Jamie Smith walked into the bedroom, and May Lee also made a video call with her two female assistants: "Come on, everyone, 'Evolution of Life' is a game that almost all humans on Blue Star will play, and its popularity will far exceed all the games in history. In the future, the battlefield of our studio will be this virtual game."

"Yes, boss," Lucini and Ben, the two female assistants, responded in unison.

"Let's go to the battlefield!" May Lee clenched her fist, and the two female assistants also clenched their fists, and May Lee hung up the phone.

Jamie Smith looked at the scene and couldn't help but chuckle.

"What are you laughing at?" May Lee glanced at Jamie Smith, holding the red virtual helmet in her arms, "This virtual helmet has a very high technological content, even if it is mass-produced, the cost of one is at least tens of thousands, right? The free distribution of 7 billion globally... the cost is staggering to think about."

Jamie Smith nodded, "Such a big event, before this press conference, there was no news leaked. And this time it's a big move, it's a benefit to all mankind, not only has it evolved the life of all mankind, doubling the lifespan. It also allows people to make use of night time, the time people use... is actually four times that of the past."

"Not only that," May Lee said, "But also because of this, an unprecedented game has been created. 7 billion people worldwide, over six years old can receive a virtual helmet, you say, who would not log in after receiving a virtual helmet?"

"Not logging in to the virtual helmet means giving up the opportunity for four times the life," Jamie Smith said.

"So, the players of this game are almost all people in the world," May Lee was very excited, and then lay down, "Don't talk anymore, let's go in quickly, I can't wait to see the world of 100% virtual reality."

"I don't know what's inside this game world," Jamie Smith also lay on the bed, picked up the silver-gray helmet on the bedside table, "Let's start."

"Virtual world!" May Lee was also very excited.

Jamie Smith and May Lee, lying on the same bed, looked at each other and put on the virtual helmet.

At this moment, all over the world, countless people are wearing virtual helmets one by one, entering the virtual world.

...

Jamie Smith first felt the metal inside the helmet touching his scalp, and his scalp was slightly numb, and he felt his consciousness quickly sinking.

Boom!

"Jamie Smith, welcome to the world of life evolution," a gentle voice sounded in his ear, as if it was a call from another world.
