Last Shelter Online-Chapter 203 Gaming Capsule
After studying what was written in Noah’s translated book, Hiro decided to rest first because he could feel his body was really exhausted after the guild war earlier. He almost forgot that he hadn’t gotten enough sleep for more than a night’s sleep.
After removing his VR helmet, Hiro immediately got up from the sofa to stretch his body, which felt very stiff. He didn’t see Cara in that place. The elite hotel room looked very empty and quiet when he was the only one there.
Hiro walked over to the supercomputer machine used by Alice and found that the computer was still on. When he touched the screen that was a touch screen, the computer immediately showed the browser that was still open. Alice probably forgot to close it before leaving her computer.
“Tch. She claims to be a professional hacker, but she doesn’t even put a pin code to access her computer.” Hiro muttered, then sat on the comfortable gaming chair that used to be Alice’s throne.
He then checked Alice’s browser. It had been a long time since Hiro had last used a computer to access the internet.
On the page that was currently open, it turned out that Alice accessed the marketplace for the Last Shelter Online game.
And Hiro immediately focused on the logo that read ‘New and unlimited’. There was one item for sale with that logo. The shape felt very familiar in Hiro’s eyes. And he reflexively got up to run to his room and took something there.
A cardboard box containing his brother’s remaining things.
Fortunately, Alice brought it from Hiro’s apartment in Japan because the girl felt that there might be clues she could find in those things. Although in the end she had to be disappointed because she didn’t find anything from it.-?(0??)?.
Hiro took the memory cube that stored the photos of Yuujin’s activities with the E-nfinity members. In one of the photos, the background was the sleeping capsules that looked a little more sophisticated than the regular sleeping capsules Hiro had seen.
Hiro compared the sleeping capsule to the photo of the item being sold in the Last Shelter Online marketplace. He swallowed hard when he saw that the two were very similar. Even the colour was the same.
[Dive into the ‘Last Shelter Online’ with no limitations of time]
[The first generation of the Gaming Capsule Pod in the world – LSOX]
[Grab it fast before it’s gone!]
[With the Gaming Capsule Pod (LSOX), your digestion system will slow down without harming your digestive tract. The censor that calms your brain will maintain your energy so that you do not have to worry about staying ‘online’ for weeks. If you buy the nutrition infused water from our marketplace, you just need to plug the infusion to the pod and set the time for your daily meals, and the machine will feed you while you play the game so that you can play longer for months, depending on the infused water stocks that you have.]
[Only 100,000 LSC to prove that you are a real gamer!]
“What the heck was that? How could they finally build such a machine like this?” Hiro still couldn’t believe what he just read from the description of the LSOX Gaming Capsule Pod. It really took him by surprise that such a thing really existed.
Just a few days after not leaving the world of Last Shelter Online, Hiro has missed a technological evolution that was impossible to achieve from a few years ago.
But, seeing the exact same thing in the photo in the memory cube, Hiro guessed that the gaming capsule pod had been ready for use since a year ago, or at least since the photo was taken by Yuujin.
“Damn, I should buy this thing.”
Hiro immediately took a look at his android bracelet and opened the Last Shelter Online application. Checking how much savings he had managed to collect so far.
[Balance 125,750 LSC]
The balance was too tight with the price of the item. He would instantly fall back into poverty if he bought that thing.
“Ahh—even though I was already planning to return to Japan for Aunt Yuma’s umpteenth wedding. She’ll definitely hate me if I don’t show up.”
Hiro leaned back against the comfortable gaming chair while closing his eyes, deep in thought.
“Should I just buy it? What if it is sold out?”
He was still in a dilemma. 100,000 LSC to buy a gaming device? He never imagined it would ever happen to him.
“But—imagine playing without logging out for months? I can definitely catch up to Yuujin and defeat him,” Hiro muttered with a long and deep sigh.
In fact, he already had a lot of plans with the money he had accumulated. He would use it to at least buy a simple apartment in Japan and settle there without fear of being evicted once again. He even thought about going back to college while continuing to play games to make a living. At least by having a title, he would not be underestimated in the environment of his country, which highly values ??education.
“I am home!”
Alice suddenly opened the main door of the hotel room and made Hiro reflexively get up from the chair that didn’t belong to him, but it was too late. Alice had seen it.
“What are you doing?” Alice asked, while frowning in displeasure to find Hiro in front of her computer. Even so, the girl didn’t push him away. Instead, she laid down on the sofa in front of Hiro.
“I just took a look in the LSO marketplace,” Hiro answered honestly. He regretted that he had not had time to open the history of the girl’s browser.
0???.?0? “Ah—did you already know about that?” Alice looked at Hiro with her head turned upside down, hanging on the back of the sofa. It made Hiro a little surprised because Alice looked like Sadako in the famous Japanese horror film.
“Know about what?”
“LSOX pod. I know you must have opened my browser, which I haven’t closed.”
Hiro grinned. He couldn’t deny it because he was caught red-handed, so he just nodded. At least Alice didn’t scold him. The girl just took a deep breath while closing her eyes.
“Let me guess, you really want it. Now, all you have in your head is to just buy it right away, right?”
Hiro still didn’t utter a single word. Damn this lady… can she read minds?
“You really do look like him. Your brother immediately fell in love with the pod, even though he knew it didn’t have a license for production at the time.”
Alice got up from the sofa and walked over to Hiro, who was still standing stiffly in front of her computer. Alice asked Hiro to move so he could sit on the chair, then opened the page of the browser, showing Hiro’s LSOX pod once again.
“If you want to buy it. Just buy it. But, I won’t help you. I hate this tool. I don’t want to pay to buy something I hate. You know that, right?” she said, giving Hiro permission in a strange way.
Hiro frowned. He had hoped for Alice to buy the pod for him, just as the girl had bought the LSO VR helmet for him. However, it seemed he had to be disappointed with his hope this time.
“Why? Just buy it, think of it as my salary for helping you.” Hiro was still trying to convince the girl. But, he got a cynical look from Alice instead.
“I’ve already paid you over 100,000 LSC at this point. Did you forget that you could never play the Last Shelter Online without me?”
Hiro sighed. The girl was right. He was lost now.
“And don’t forget who’s been paying half the price for your apartment in Japan all this time,” Alice added, making Hiro tilt his head in confusion.
“What do you mean?”
“Ah– so, you still don’t know? I purposely asked the owner of the apartment to give you a low price and even let you pay in stages, because I already paid the price for your room. Actually, I already bought it. And the money you’ve been paying so far is just for a cleaning service. Do you think the apartments are that cheap now?”
Hiro swallowed hard. He really didn’t know about it. He just thought that he was very lucky after experiencing such a tragic incident. He really didn’t know if Alice had arranged all of that. Alce had arranged all of it in detail that she had already prepared a place to live before Hiro realized that the girl was already around him.
“Alice,” Hiro called out, with both eyes looking straight at Alice.
“Hmmm?”
“You really are my savior angel. I don’t know what would have happened to me if you weren’t around. Thank you very much, Alice. I don’t know if I can pay it back in the future. Thank you.”𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦
