Chapter 2: Buying a Helmet

  "Game helmets seem to have been on sale since July 25th!" Duan Chen thought for a moment, muttering to himself, in that case, he should go buy one first.

  "There should still be four thousand yuan left!" Duan Chen took out his bank card and muttered to himself, because he had been admitted to university, so his family members and relatives all rewarded him with some prize money, and it was not embarrassing that he couldn't afford the gaming headset.

  "A gaming helmet for two thousand yuan, what a rip-off!" Duan Chen sighed and was about to leave.

  As soon as he opened the door, Duan Chen saw his father sitting in the living room watching TV. Compared to five years ago, his father looked much younger at this moment and not so old.

  "Dad!" Duan Chen walked in front of his father and greeted him.

  "Anything wrong?" Duàn Fù's eyelids slightly lifted, and he glanced at Duàn Chén, asking aloud.

  Still the same temperament, Duan Chen couldn't help but sigh, his own father, to himself, seemed to have always been indifferent, however, Duan Chen knew that this was his father's nature, no matter who it was, he always had a cold attitude.

  "I'm going out for a bit!" Duan Chen let out a slight sigh of relief, looking at his father in front of him and saying aloud.

  "Go! Come back early!" Duan's father didn't even look at Duan Chen, he just lightly said a sentence and then stopped talking.

  Looking at his father's appearance, Duan Chen couldn't help but sigh, his mother had passed away early, and it seemed that since his mother's death, his father had always been like this, without a single change.

  He let out a soft sigh, and Duan Chen didn't say much more. Thinking of his father five years later, he couldn't help but reveal a faint smile. Five years later, the money he had earned from his struggles for dominance was in the tens of millions, and it had already allowed his father to live a good life.

  "It seems to remember that when I went out of the residential area, after turning left, there was a commercial street with helmets for sale!" Duan Chen thought for a moment and then started walking towards the outside of the residential area. Soon he arrived at the commercial street.

  As expected, at the corner of the commercial street, there was a store that specialized in selling game helmets. However, the store was already packed with people at this moment.

  "Indeed, 'The Battle for Supremacy' is a masterpiece that transcends the ages!" Duan Chen smiled wryly as he looked at the crowded store in front of him, and couldn't help but rub his nose before steeling himself to squeeze inside.

  "Ah! Who touched my butt?"

  "Sister, can you move your hand a bit? I'm still a virgin!"

  "Who the hell touched me! Believe it or not, I'll cut you!"

  Duan Chen had just entered the store when he was met with a cacophony of shouts, causing him to smile wryly. However, this crowded scene was indeed the perfect opportunity for perverts to take action.

  After much difficulty, Duan Chen squeezed onto the stage and looked at the salesgirl in front of him. He shouted: "I want a 'Zhengba' helmet, an economical one, starting with B!"

  "Good sir!" The salesgirl, though puzzled why Duan Chen wanted a helmet starting with the letter B, didn't ask further and directly handed him a "Contend for Hegemony" helmet, smiling: "Two thousand three! Thank you for your patronage!"

  "Swipe card!" Looking at the helmet in front of him with the words B0051 written on it, Duan Chen couldn't help but reveal a satisfied expression, and directly handed his bank card to the salesgirl.

  The helmet that starts with the letter B, nowadays perhaps no one knows what its function is. However, for Duan Chen who has been reborn for five years, he understands its meaning. Because someone had tested it out from various game helmets, unexpectedly, the B-letter helmet actually delayed the game time by ten minutes compared to ordinary helmets.

  However, at that time, the B-letter helmet was no longer in production, and the B-letter helmets left in the players' hands were even more precious.

  "As expected, coming to buy before the district opens, I can definitely get a B-letter helmet!" Duan Chen said with a smile, holding the helmet that was emitting a blue glow in his hand.

  Every minute counts when a new area is just opened, and in such an environment, even ten more minutes are extremely precious.

  "August 8th! Only nine days left!" Duan Chen's eyes sparkled with a hint of excitement as he muttered to himself.

  "Newbie village hidden quests, copy tasks, all major hidden plot tasks!" Duandust's mind kept flashing with scenes, his eyes full of amazement. He completely knew the entire strategy for the game "Contend for Hegemony", although many newbie village tasks were no longer clear in his memory, but he still remembered five or six tasks that could be completed in the newbie village.

  "Warriors, mages, archers, priests, rangers, beastmasters" repeatedly thinking about the pros and cons of these professions, as well as their various benefits. Among the five professions in the Conquest, rangers are equivalent to assassins or thieves, but there is no thief in the Conquest.

  "Still choose warrior then!" Finally, Duan Chen said helplessly to himself.

  After all, having played a warrior for five years, I am most familiar with the various skills of warriors. Not using a warrior would be a waste.

  "This time, it's probably not wrong!" Duan Chen muttered to himself, and in his mind, he couldn't help but think of a novice village task. This task was hidden too deeply, and it wasn't discovered until more than two months after the server opened. At that time, many people were so angry that they jumped up and down because this hidden task was really too difficult. Some people even deleted their accounts and re-registered just to complete this hidden task in the novice village. Unfortunately, after 100 people completed this task, it disappeared, and many of those who had deleted their accounts and re-registered were so angry that they fainted.

  "Skill: Chaos Element" As soon as he thought of the skill obtained from that task, Duan Chen's heart was filled with a burning passion. Five years later, in the entire Dark Night Empire, not a single person possessed this skill.

  It was another good friend of Duan Chen's, Bu Yu, who possessed this skill.

  "Sacrifice 30% of your own blood, increase your attack power by a factor of one, lasting for five minutes!" This is the powerful effect of the Chaos Element, doubling the attack power, and it's truly doubled. If you wear equipment with Segment Dust and have 100 points of attack power, after releasing the Chaos Element, you can increase it to 200 points of attack power, which is simply incredible. Losing 30% of your blood can be completely restored by drinking a bottle of instant health potion, so this so-called sacrifice is completely worthless.

  Duān chén yǐ jiù jì dé, huò dé hùn luàn yuán sù de yī bǎi rén zhōng, biàn yǒu qī shí duō rén chéng wèi le yóu xì zhōng shēng míng hè hè de dǐng jiān gāo shǒu.

  Back home, Duan Chen directly installed the gaming headset. As a high-end player who had played the game "Contend for Hegemony" for five years, he didn't need to read the instructions and was able to install it perfectly.

  Looking at the gaming headset placed on his bedside table, Duan Chen couldn't help but reveal a hint of a smile. This way, as long as he lay in bed, he could start playing games directly! Extremely convenient.

  "Now it's just a matter of waiting for the game to start!" Duan Chen exhaled and muttered to himself.
