Creating a Virtual World

Chapter 459: Meeting the Parents (Part 3)

Views:

Juan Canyun was sitting on the bus contracted by Yin Zong. In addition to the contestants of Leaping Nuclear, his parents were also on the bus.

This holographic projection exchange meeting is equivalent to the All-Star Game after the end of the World Championship. The All-Star Game is a series of entertaining performances, so Juan Canyun does not need to be too nervous and can just treat it as a game for fun.

His parents were sitting next to him, but Juan Canyun was busy scrolling through messages on his phone. Suddenly, a contestant sitting in the front row stood up, turned around and looked at Juan Canyun who was scrolling through messages on his phone.

"That's great, Xiao Wen! You're the first player in the server to marry an NPC. The wedding will be held at Wuda in the other world. Are you going to hold the wedding there directly?" The player said this directly in front of Juan Canyun's parents.

As a result, it was too late for Heiguo Zhurou, who was sitting next to him, to push his teammate back to his seat!

Juan Canyun's parents have entered a state of alert.

"Xiao Wen? Why are you getting married again?" Juan Canyun's father asked hurriedly.

"It's an engagement! Just got engaged!"

When Juan Canyun was forced to speak by his father, he began to sound incoherent and even got the main point of his speech wrong.

"Engaged? Engaged is a big deal! Xiaowen, why didn't you tell your parents about your relationship before getting engaged?"

After hearing Juan Canyun's explanation, Juan Canyun's mother completely misunderstood him. Before the two of them came, she had been worried because she heard that her son had fallen in love with a strange girl.

As a result, when they were about to meet the girl, Juan Canyun, who had always been very obedient, actually told them to do something without asking for their permission later.

Is he engaged to that girl

No matter which parent it is, no one can accept this!

"This...this Dad, Mom! The engagement I was talking about is in the game!" Juan Canyun calmed down and pointed out the key to the problem.

"Engagement is engagement! Is there any difference between the game and reality? Are you in a relationship with that girl?"

Juan Canyun's mother is relatively traditional. She is extremely anxious now. On the one hand, her son is far from being old enough to get married, and on the other hand, Juan Canyun's mother is afraid that her son will deceive another girl.

"Wait a minute, Xiaowen, answer me a few questions first. Is the person you are engaged to really a character in the game?" Juan Canyun's father knew more. He was also an old-generation computer keyboard and mouse player, so he knew what it meant to be engaged in a game, but what he wanted to know was "Is that character an NPC in the game or a female player?"

"It's a character in the game, an NPC." Juan Canyun answered his parents truthfully.

"You are just making trouble. What's the point of liking an NPC?"

"But I really like her!" Juan Canyun responded.

"But getting married in the game is just like playing, isn't it? If it's a female player, it would be fine! Can an NPC get a marriage certificate with you in real life, and can you and I have children in real life? This... this is not love at all." Juan Canyun's father directly pointed out the cruelest part of the problem.

"This marriage may not be a joke anymore, Xiaowen...Are you serious about accepting Lady Disaster's engagement proposal?"

Mr. Yin, who was sitting at the front of the line, suddenly walked over to where Juan Canyun was sitting and looked at him and his parents and spoke.

"I'm serious, but getting married in the Holy Spirit...isn't that just getting married in the game?" Juan Canyun didn't know how to express what he meant.

But Mr. Yin understood that Juan Canyun really fell in love with Lady Disaster, but he still thought that marrying Lady Disaster might not be as solemn and important as in reality, and still just regarded it as a game.

The game Dissidia also has a marriage system, and marriage also has attribute bonuses. If Mr. Yin remembers correctly, Juan Canyun has thirty or forty trumpets in Dissidia, and every player has these trumpets of different professions. These trumpets will randomly hold a wedding with another female character for the attribute bonus of marriage.

This is a very common thing in all online games, so it is the same in Holy Spirit. Getting married in Holy Spirit is just to have more attributes of marriage.

Mr. Yin knew that Juan Canyun would not think so, but he still underestimated the marriage among the Holy Spirit, compared to... the importance attached to it by Lady Disaster.

"Now that we're there, let's go take a look at the Holy Spirit's venue first. After all, this is our guild's first wedding held in a 'game'." President Yin emphasized the word "game" very much, as if he was saying it deliberately for Juan Canyun's parents to hear, or as if he was reminding Juan Canyun of something.

"Get married! Get married! Get married! Boss, can we log in to celebrate?" Some players who like excitement have already started to make a noise.

“The VR equipment at the Holy Spirit venue hasn’t been adjusted yet, so let’s go and take a look in reality first.” Mr. Yin said.

Mo Shigui led the team into the Wuhan University campus without saying a word. This exchange meeting was semi-open, so a large number of fans who came to support their players had gathered at the door, but they could not enter the Wuhan University campus in front of the security guards.

The fans started cheering after discovering the members of Nucleon, but there were some discordant voices in the cheers.

It was as if someone was shouting something like "You're a nerd who likes paper figures!"

Mo Shigui ignored these voices and led his team members along the cherry blossom path of Wuhan University towards the football field. With the help of holographic projection equipment, the football field of Wuhan University has completely transformed into a different scenery.

It turns out that this group of pirates can not only steal things, but also make things, and their artistic attainments are quite high!

After Jiang Qiao told Lady Disaster about the wedding style that the Holy Spirit liked, as soon as Lady Disaster's proposal was successful, half of the members of her pirate group rushed into the other world, carrying a large pile of construction materials.

Originally in the area of Wuhan University in the inner world, Jiang Qiao wanted to build a fishing pond on the football field, but a group of pirate workers came and built a super luxurious open-air wedding hall in no time.

White stone pillars were placed on both sides of the football field. The ground was covered with grass and flowers. The guest benches were neatly arranged. In the central wedding hall, there was a pure white statue of an unknown goddess wearing gorgeous floral costumes.

There was no trace of the cruelty, decadence and filthiness that these pirates from other planes should have. The whole place was filled with a sacred, romantic and holy atmosphere.

Jiang Qiao looked at this perfect outdoor wedding venue and thought that these pirates might as well switch careers and become a wedding planning team.

The wedding venue was built, and the guests invited to attend the wedding naturally arrived one after another.

The participants on Lady Disaster's side were all capable crew members from her pirate group and veteran pirates from Drake's side. These pirates also took the trouble to tidy themselves up so as not to look so dirty.

Some old pirates who had served in the pirate group since the time of Lady Disaster's father couldn't help but wipe away their tears and lamented that their eldest daughter was finally getting married.

Almost all the players in the server received wedding invitations. As a well-known e-sports player in China, Juan Canyun's sudden marriage in the Holy Spirit naturally attracted a lot of attention. Online players all ran to the Wuda area in the other world to join in the fun.

But the football stadium was not crowded, because the football stadium was the core area of Wuhan University. As the owner, the Abyss Temple could limit the number of players entering. Players who could not enter could also watch around the football stadium, or directly watch from the sky on flying mounts.

It’s a pity that the spectacular scene in the game cannot be seen in reality. In reality, Juan Canyun can only see the pirates and some players in the decorated wedding hall.

“It’s just like the real thing.”

Juan Canyun's father tried to touch a white pillar projected by a holographic projection with his hand, but his hand passed through it, proving that it was just a projection.

While Juan Canyun's parents were lamenting the rapid advancement of science and technology, Juan Canyun saw Lady Disaster who was waiting for him in the crowd in the wedding hall.

Lady Disaster was still wearing the same pirate outfit as usual. When she saw Juan Canyun, she was somewhat surprised and walked straight towards her.

"You're here?" Mrs. Disaster's voice didn't sound as strong as usual, and there was even a hint of shyness hidden in her surprise.

“Hmm…” Juan Canyun nodded slightly. He didn’t know why he felt guilty and uneasy, especially when he was under the watchful eyes of Lady Disaster’s loyal crew members and standing in this holy wedding hall.

"Xiao Wen, is she the character in your favorite game? The modeling is indeed very beautiful, but there should be many NPCs with this name and modeling in the game?" As soon as Juan Canyun's father walked up, he saw... the name ID above Lady Disaster's head.

But this sentence from Juan Canyun's father accidentally stepped on the minefield between Juan Canyun and Lady Disaster. However, there are many similar NPCs in a game. Isn't this something that any player knows
