My Player 2

Chapter 157 Opportunity
Lin Chaofan, male, 27 years old, currently employed.

Just by listening to the name, you can tell that his parents want him to become an extraordinary person.

He did try his best.

Without falling behind in his main subjects, he took elective courses in magic and achieved a good ranking in the top 500 in the alliance's magic examination.

His ending was the same as most people's.

With a solid foundation in magic, he underwent his first awakening with the help of his parents.

It failed.

It takes talent to become a magician, but to realize this talent, you need external help.

Miracles and magic are not free. The "awakening objects" that can enable people to move towards transcendence are rare goods placed in display windows, and each one is priced at a sky-high price.

Fortunately, the alliance will subsidize young people who are awakening for the first time based on their scores in the joint examination.

This is also the significance of the magic joint examination.

With the subsidy, Lin Chaofan's parents only spent more than 1 Alliance Coins to let him experience the first failure in his life.

Then, they took out their savings of many years, spent more than 50 yuan, and bought better awakening items for him to experience failure for the second time in his life.

Two consecutive blows almost shattered Lin Chaofan's spirit.

But he still managed to get through it, and with his excellent grades, he was admitted to an energy-related major.

Unlike elves who can live for hundreds of years, in the short lifespan of humans, just one or two failures can determine the fate of a person's life.

But Lin Chaofan didn't believe it.

So he tried a third time.

After working for 6 years after graduation, he lived frugally, saved money, and took out some loans to make his third attempt to awaken the extraordinary.

Online mentors and experts do not recommend multiple attempts to awaken the extraordinary.

The economic losses are secondary. With the alliance's productivity, no one will starve to death. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we can survive as long as we are alive.

But for ordinary people, the mental blow is the most difficult to bear.

Because the failure of awakening the extraordinary has nothing to do with the right or wrong of that person.

This is talent.

This is fate.

It was the failure of the third awakening that caused Lin Chaofan to completely collapse. He ignored the loans he owed, voluntarily resigned from his high-paying job, rented a house on the edge of the city, and lived on "Naitou Le" all day long.

Whether it is the super popular idol group "Cats Are So Cute" or the top two-dimensional drama "Granblue World", he knows them all.

When he ran out of money, he would go out to work for two days.

When I had money, I would return to my rental house of more than ten square meters and lie there all day long.

Life? future?
Ha ha.

A person whose spirit is broken is like a traveler stuck in a quagmire. Outsiders cannot rescue him without a willingness to sacrifice.

Lin Chaofan also tried to change.

He had been to a mysterious offline group that was said to be able to awaken extraordinary powers in people.

But after all, he was a top student who scored almost full marks in the magic joint examination.

A bunch of weird idiots who can't even distinguish between magic and divine power and are trying to deceive those low-intelligence beastmen will be thrown into jail sooner or later.

They can gain power through sacrifice, but it is just a superficial consumable.

Instead of wasting energy on playing with them, you might as well support “Cats are so cute”!
"Best is so cute!"

Lin Chaofan was lying on his side on the bed, holding his mobile phone in his left hand, looking at the bikini catwoman making a heart shape on the screen, while his other hand was busy with something unknown.

A prompt message popped up on the top of the phone, which was a message from the mobile game guild group. Originally, Lin Chaofan was very busy and had no time to deal with this information, but a casual glance from the corner of his eye still allowed him to see the three words "Awakening Object".

He was stunned.

He no longer cared about the spoiled little idol, he took his other hand out from under the quilt and clicked on the records of the mobile game group.

“《I’ll give you an awakening item when you come! The Star Islands Exploration Team is urgently recruiting for the following positions. Come if you’re not afraid of death!》”

This is a link sent by a group member. After clicking it, it shows that it has been reported too many times and the content no longer exists.

"Forwarded, please defend yourself if it's true or false."

"Give away awakening items as soon as you come? Damn, isn't this the same routine as before, where you can migrate to the outside of the city and get guaranteed advancement? They are all scammers. I allow you to dump garbage in the group, but you will be banned if you dump harmful garbage."

"This is real."

"???"

"Mecha Giant, are you kidding me? Don't say things like that, or someone will take it seriously."

"It's true. A friend of mine is going to the Star Islands. He is currently recruiting people in the Elemental Capital. It will probably take a few days for him to leave. If you want to go, you can give it a try, but the risk is indeed not small."

"? Mecha, if you keep joking, I'll ban you too."

"[Picture], [Picture], the previous immigration was also real, and it was also done by a friend of mine. If you want stability, you can go to his place."

"...Hey, Mecha, are you really not kidding?"

"Why did you lie to me?"

"But if these links are real, why did the authorities remove them?"

"how could I know?"

That’s the end of the chat history.

Lin Chaofan looked at the people who were talking. Except for the group member who first sent the link and was muted for 10 minutes, the rest were the group owner and a big guy named "The Target is the Strongest Mechanic" who were communicating.

He knew that this "Mecha Giant" was a wealthy man who had joined the guild not long ago.

He spent hundreds of thousands to buy an account, and in order to grab the first place in the guild war, he even gave money to his group members.

In fact, Lin Chaofan's main character in "Granblue World" was given 10 648 by this big guy because "Dawn of Hope·Lilith" did not have full life, forcing him to upgrade Lilith to the maximum.

Even though this was a guild competing for rankings and everyone was a top-notch player, they still had to be careful when speaking to a big shot who was really willing to spend money.

With such a big guy as a guarantee, this...

Can you really believe it?
Best's charming voice of "Master, Master" came from the background of the phone, and Lin Chaofan just felt irritated. He turned off the video playing in the background, clicked on the avatar of "Ji Ju", and after some consideration, sent him a private message.

……

Time was running out, so Lin Chaofan didn't even bring a change of clothes. He only took his cell phone charger, bought a train ticket, and rushed to the City of Elements.

Sitting on the train, Lin Chaofan took out the resume he wrote when he applied for the job. After hesitating for a while, he filled in "once led the design of new type of micro controlled nuclear fusion" in the "work experience" column.

This is of course bragging.

The Thirteen Alliance has no shortage of energy, and the technology of controlled nuclear fusion was brought by the survivors of the [Doomsday Fortress] thousands of years ago.

This is already a very mature technology. The so-called "new type" and "design" are just based on the work of predecessors and trying to reduce the area a little. To put it bluntly, it is a means for companies to register patents.

But the boss who is hiring probably doesn’t understand this.

What he wanted was a maintenance worker for a fusion reactor, a job he could handle with his skills.

Looking at the resume he had just printed, Lin Chaofan took a deep breath, his eyes more determined than ever before.

He has failed three times in his life. As long as he can become a transcendent—

He was willing to pay any price.
