BXBX NOVEL Chapter 72: Fortnite Closed Beta
Curious, Alex glanced at his dashboard.
[Minecraft]
[65,000,000 Games Sold - $1,300,000,000]
[Average time played: 6 hours.]
[Available Gaming Points: 5.000.000]
Looking at the 1 billion dollars earned from Minecraft sales alone, Alex already started losing the sense of seeing the money number going up, but seeing the 5 million GP got Alex excited.
It took a lot of restraint not to spend 1 million GP to buy Voldemort\'s Occlumency while kissing Anna, but he knew better than to save that for just in case there was ever a need.
While he ate, he and Anna exchanged many messages.
Alex felt that after today\'s barbecue, their relationship had risen to another level, so he intended to prepare a present for the next time they went to see each other, as he intended to ask her to date.
Taking advantage of some of the early hours to develop more Fortnite, Alex saw that the game was practically ready, so he had an idea.
"I think releasing some beta-keys can help hype the game." Alex thought interested.
Curious, he went to the Twitch website and saw that Minecraft had 4 million viewers while over 3,000 people were streaming the game, due to how easy it was to livestream while playing it.
Observing the Top 50 Streamers with the most Viewers, Alex decided that these would be the lucky ones to participate in the beta game that would take place tomorrow, with each one having an invitation to a friend, since the tournament would be in pairs.
\'I think a prize for the winner might be nice, right?\' Alex thought interested and decided to make a custom backpack for the first place.
Ned had managed to become the Mayor of Hypixel, and with the ideas he had, players really felt that the game had become even better, which gave him a lot of satisfaction.
Beside him was Petter, looking at the items listed on the auction and looking for something that might interest him, but unfortunately he had already bought everything he wanted.
Hulk was fighting monsters in the dungeons, since that was what he enjoyed the most there.
"Then I guess we can…" Ned was talking to the livestream audience, when suddenly a screen appeared floating in front of him.
[You have been invited to participate in the Fortnite Closed Beta.]
[Do you want to accept?]
Ned was shocked to see this and didn\'t think twice before saying yes!
[You have received 01 invites to Fortnite.]
[Your access to Fortnite has been released.]
Suddenly, two paper invitations with the Fortnite symbol appeared in Ned\'s hand. On the paper was written "Tear here to start Download."
Upon seeing the invitations in Ned\'s hand, the audience took a while to react, but soon they were very excited!
[Woaaah, now you can play Fortnite!]
[So jealous! I also want to be able to play Fortnite! TˆT]
[Hey Ned, I buy your other invite!]
[I buy too, just name a price!]
[…]
Seeing that more and more people wanted to buy his invitation, Ned apologized to the audience and handed the other invitation to Petter.
Since Petter didn\'t receive the notice of the Fortnite Beta, he didn\'t know what the invite was.
"Just tear it down the middle." Ned said to Petter as he did the same thing.
Petter didn\'t ask much and tore up the invitation in confusion.
Unbeknownst to them, a small file downloaded onto their computer shortly after they ripped up the invitation.
[Do you want to go to Fortnite?]
Seeing this message, Petter was confused before he understood exactly what was going on.
"Will we be able to play Fortnite?" Petter asked excitedly.
"Yes!" Ned also got excited and said. "Come on quick Pette, I\'m really curious to see what it\'s like over there!"
Without waiting for Petter\'s response, Ned soon clicked on accept and saw his vision change.
From the square world of Fortnite, he was now in a place like a military firing range with a small open field behind.
Looking around, Ned soon saw a tall, blond man appear beside him, with a confused expression as he tried to understand what was going on.
"Hi…" The man said a little shyly, as he looked at Ned, but to Ned\'s surprise, the voice that came out of the man was Petter\'s voice!
"Peter?!" Ned asked confused.
When Petter heard Ned\'s voice, his shy expression quickly faded, making him even more uncomfortable as he stared at Ned in disbelief.
"Ned?! Why are you like this?" Petter asked shocked.
"Like this? Like what?" Ned didn\'t understand what was happening until he looked down.
Unlike Minecraft, here in Fortnite his body is not square, but very realistic.
The problem is that Ned didn\'t imagine that when he looked down, what he would find would be a female body!
Down: ??????????
Meanwhile, in a large Malibu mansion, Tony Stark lay in bed while hugging two models.
After a night of very active activities, Tony was sleeping very comfortably, until Jarvis sounded an alarm, waking up Tony and the two models.
"Jarvis, stop, what is this?" Tony asked confused.
Jarvis answered in a robotic voice. "You asked me to let you know if there was any news about Fortnite, sir. According to news on the internet, 50 streamers were selected to test the game and received an invite a friend ticket, of these 50 streamers, 3 of them decided to hold online auctions to sell the ticket they received. What do you want to do?"
Hearing it was about Fortnite, Tony soon lost sleep and got up, much to the dismay of the two models lying on his bed.
"Secure me a ticket, Jarvis." Tony ordered as he headed to the lab.
He had lost sleep, and now he intended to research Fortnite, both for the virtual reality technology and to find out if this company "Mojang" was crazy enough to actually use his armor in the game.
