(Major revisions underway. Will be finished by September 14.)
Ye Zhaoyang is nearly losing her mind from grad school.
Studying far from home, with no friends. Her dorm is a luxurious double room, but her roommate is a cold beauty, and they don’t say ten words to each other a day. Ye Zhaoyang doesn’t even have anyone to vent to.
Then one day, Ye Zhaoyang glanced over and saw her cold beauty of a roommate open JX3.
Well, wasn’t that the game she’d played and then abandoned just to chase after her crush?
She had nothing better to do, so she logged in.
Wait, what? She had five red pieces from the top-tier raid set?
Wait, what? There were two fox-gold cosmetics in her inventory?
I had such good taste in high school?
But she’d used her crush’s ID to register the account!
Ye Zhaoyang had only meant to sell her cosmetics and make a fortune, but as she kept playing, she found a master and friends, and even got the confidence to talk back to her advisor. It felt like JX3 could cure anything.
She got flamed in a raid for being a cosmetic-copying freeloader with an energy-farming account, so Ye Zhaoyang silently dug the five red pieces out of her bag and put them on.
Who cares how much I paid for them? They do the job! What I’ve got on my head now is worth a down payment!
Hold on, why does this project my advisor recommended look so familiar?
JX3 Spirit Realm Engine? The JX3 full-dive VR project?
Huh? Me?
The most romantic thing I can imagine isn’t picking the stars out of the sky, but a group of people creating a starry sky together.
Standing in Novice Village, feeling the sunshine and breeze, touching everything around me.
A vessel for the resonance of millions of souls.
Lightly alternate universe. The first three chapters mainly establish the setting, with no game plot.
Theme: Set your sights on a goal and stay true to yourself.
