Chapter 1095: Mansion

Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations

For Lu Li, the most important factor was the security. After interacting with other people in the area and talking to his agent, he found out that there were many retired people, such as ex-government workers and professors who lived here. There were also frequent security patrols.

Of course, the houses here weren’t that cheap. Although this area seemed not that prestigious, the matter of fact was that the real estate here were much more expensive than most houses in the city.

Furthermore, even those with money were not guaranteed a house in this area. However, once the real estate agent knew that Lu Li was interested in this area, he immediately reported this to his supervisor. Not long after, the ones who were managing this area contacted Lu Li’s agent.

Truthfully, this was not that surprising.

It wasn’t that they were trying to suck up to Ruling Sword and wanting to give them whatever they asked, but it was because the representation of property was different.

The city organisation had investigated Lu Li’s background beforehand. Besides the admiration of his rise to the top, the possibility of his hatred towards the more wealthy and powerful would cause unwanted conflicts. After all, Lu Li’s words were Ruling Sword’s wishes.

Fortunately, these things did not happen, since Lu Li was a man who did not hold many grudges and had a calm demeanour.

However, partnerships like these were fickle. Ruling Sword would still be Ruling Sword, with or without external support. From the very beginning, they already proved their survival capabilities. On the other hand, if Jiangnan did not have Ruling Sword, then the city would be one without clubs and entertainment organisations. Star Moon Guild was deemed as a failing organisation, so Ruling Sword was their only hope.

When Lu Li wanted to buy a house, he would look within the area that Ruling Sword had been established.

If Ruling Sword was established in Jiangnan, then they would most likely represent Jiangnan in the eSports competitions. Therefore, after knowing that the boss of Ruling Sword wanted to buy a house, they would do their best to offer him one.

Lu Li arrived to visit a 700-metre-square detached double-storey house with a garden and a pool. Furthermore, the required maintenance and renovations were already complete. The original owner was an architect and was planning on leaving this house for his son to inherit. Unfortunately, their son fell in love with someone who lived in Ireland, so he moved accordingly.

Jiangnan was not a prestigious city, and the real estate prices did not fluctuate as much as others. However, the owner still set a price of 26 million.

Too expensive!

Lu Li still wanted the house, so he had to take a loan from the bank. However, the bank was not worried that he wouldn’t be able to pay it back.

The organisation also sent a secretary who was responsible for these affairs. It seemed like everything was going smoothly; Lu Li inspected the house in the morning, then signed the contract in the afternoon. On top of this, he now had a 20-million-dollar debt.

Without Lu Li, there would be no Ruling Sword. Without Ruling Sword, Jiangnan would not have entered the list of cities for eSports competitions. Therefore, it was only natural for the city to support Ruling Sword. To buy and gift a mansion to him would definitely make Lu Li obedient in this partnership.

Unfortunately, no such thing was possible.

Firstly, the huge amount of money would definitely be noticed and would not escape investigation, even under notable names and authorities. Secondly, no one would have the ability to simply gift a mansion.

Then again, the prospects of securing Lu Li’s loyalty with a mansion were extremely unlikely.

The maintenance procedures were already complete prior to their moving. Furthermore, there would be regular cleaners who would come in and tidy the place up. This was already all handled by the city organisation. Lu Li and his sister had never been extremely wealthy. Even when they did have money, they did not bother with buying unnecessary items. As such, when they moved out, they only needed to pack one bag each.

The three female landlords were saddened at their departure, especially for Lu Xin. After all, they had built with her a strong relationship with her during her time there.

However, they understood Lu Xin’s dream of owning her own house. After all, their own house was also a rented one that they only planned on living in temporarily.

Of course, they had backup plans in place for when there would be available space. After Lu Li and Lu Xin’s departure, they contacted Ruling Sword, where there were a few females who were interested in renting a room.

In Lu Li’s new house, after repeatedly warning his sister to not get too excited, he gave up.

As of now, Lu Xin’s sickness was already nearly cured. Her day-to-day excitement would no longer damage her body. Last month during her monthly check up, the doctor was extremely happy regarding her recovery. In half a year, Lu Xin would return to normal and be able to live like a normal girl.

Lu Li liked many small aspects of the house. He had to give kudos to the architect for his exceptional taste of lifestyle.

Such aspects included a V-6 port used for gaming, which Lu Li even ordered the newest gaming system for.

Previously, he had to work extremely hard just for a helmet, but now, he could buy a gaming system worth a few hundred thousand dollars with the click of his fingers. He even bought a customised one for Lu Xin to accommodate her body condition, although that one would arrive later than his.

Lu Li’s system arrived that afternoon.

He was ecstatic, so he entered the machine straight away.

How comfortable!

This was the main selling point. Compared to wearing a helmet and lying on the bed, this chamber-like machine simply was too comfortable. For the beta-testers of this machine, this must have felt like they were back in their mother’s embrace.

However, Lu Li did not care much about this. He only wanted to know if this would affect his gaming experience.

Lu Li did not have competitions today, so he went to the Blackrock Mountains to train. As long as he did not bother the Fire Elementals, he would be safe fighting these level 55 monsters.

There were obvious changes, such as his field of vision. Lu Li expected this at the very least – otherwise, no one would buy these machines. However, the change was exaggerated in the advertisements. All in all, Lu Li was not completely satisfied with his purchase.

As he rushed towards a monster, he decided to test out his speed, sensitivity and other settings. However, he was disappointed upon finding out that there weren’t large differences in these. Perhaps it was because these were all coded into the game itself, so the machine did not affect it.

The only noticeable change was the change in reaction time.

To Lu Li, this was not a good thing as he felt uncomfortable and unsuited to this machine. His rhythm while grinding was not smooth and often sped up or slowed down. After all, he had spent half a year using a helmet, so it was expected that he would not be able to adapt to this machine immediately.
