Chapter 29 Chapter29-New Holographic Chamber!
John knew that Emma's Legendary Item must have sold for a good amount of money.
He asked curiously, "The Dawn Breeze Auction House must have made quite a lot of money from this auction, didn't they?"
Emma nodded, "They took a 20% commission, about 8 million dollars."
"White Feather and I each received 16 million dollars..."
"With this money, we could buy a nice house in the affluent district downtown!"
John thought about it, he indeed found living in this rented house quite inconvenient. n-(OveLbIn
Besides, he had saved a lot of money through the sale of gold coins recently.
The balance in his bank account had already become so inflated that it was just a number to him.
John said to Emma:
"Okay, but don't waste your money, 16 million dollars may seem like a lot, but it will be gone quickly if you spend it lavishly."
"Many people who get rich quickly don't know how to manage their money, and they soon spend all their savings and live even worse than before."
Half of what John said was true, and the other half was to scare her.
The main point was that Emma was still too young, and John didn't want her to spend money recklessly without limits.
If Emma could develop a habit of managing money, this money would be enough for her to live happily for a lifetime.
However, John was very grateful that Emma was thinking about buying a house for them to live together, so he added:
"Since we're are going to buy a new house, I suggest let me do it."
"Anyway, I need to buy a house of my own."
After he finished speaking, John looked at his smoking holographic chamber and said:
"Before buying a new house, I need to replace this scrap metal, it seems completely unusable now."
Emma nodded.
Then she said, "I have to go back to school for a while, final exams are coming, I might not be able to accompany you for the next half month."
John hugged her waist and said, "It's okay, your studies are the most important."
"By the time you come back, I might be able to come out of the underground secret realm."
Because John couldn't leave the temple,
Every time Emma asked, John would use the excuse that he was exploring the underground secret realm, if he gave up halfway, he would not get any rewards, and the game progress would be much slower than other players.
Emma was looking forward to John being able to come out of the secret realm every day, so they could level up and defeat bosses together.
Hearing what John said, Emma said excitedly,
"That's great! When I come back, we'll go on an adventure together! There are many places that White Feather and I can't handle alone, we're waiting for you!"
Before Emma could finish,
John picked her up.
Then walked towards the bathroom.
"Eh? John, what are you doing?"
John gave a devilish smile, "Didn't you just wake up and haven't washed yet? I also need to freshen up, so we can take a bath together, and then I'll take you to school."
Emma struggled, but couldn't get away.
She could only close her eyes and let John do as he pleased.
...
More than an hour later, they both came out of the bathroom.
After changing clothes, John called a cab and took Emma to her university.
Then, he took a cab to the COMPANY O's holographic chamber store downtown.
When the manager saw that it was John who had come, he immediately arranged for Sophia Rosewood to come and greet him.
They even specifically cleared out a VIP reception room for John.
In the VIP reception room,
Sophia Rosewood was still in her blue-black professional suit, with a tight skirt on the lower body and black stockings high heels.
Her hair was tied up, revealing her fair and long neck.
Anyone who saw her would have to praise her for being a beautiful woman.
John felt that Sophia Rosewood had become more and more good at dressing and more and more attractive after not seeing her for many days.
But he was not here to see a beauty today.
John looked at Sophia Rosewood and got straight to the point:
"The latest holographic chamber sent by you is broken, today I saw white smoke coming out of the vent, what's going on?"
This was the first time Sophia had encountered such a situation, she was puzzled,
"Mr. Foster, I'm really sorry, but the configuration used by our latest holographic chamber is the best, and we have achieved the lowest failure rate in the world... This is the first time I've heard of something like white smoke, it shouldn't happen in theory."
John took out his phone and said, "I know you might not believe me, I took pictures and videos, you can take a look."
Hearing John say this, Sophia Rosewood hurried over, sat next to John, and began to check his phone.
The two were sitting very close at this point, and John could smell Sophia Rosewood's body scent.
Thinking of the close encounter he almost had with Sophia Rosewood last time, which was interrupted by Emma's sudden appearance, John felt it was a great pity.
Just as John was being carried away by the fragrance,
Sophia Rosewood said, "Okay, could you please send me this video and photos? I will send them to our repair department so they can see what's wrong with your machine."
John nodded and said, "That would be good. I hope it can be repaired quickly, I really need it."
He was just killed by The Devil Azazel who was extremely furious and then, was forcibly logged out of the game.
This made John extremely curious about how much Exp he had gained this time.
Last time after The Devil Azazel got furious, he gained a huge amount of Exp and leveled up a lot.
This time The Devil was so furious that he even broke his holographic chamber, he should be able to level up a few more times, right?
Soon, the repair department of COMPANY O replied.
Sophia put down her phone and said to John, "Mr. Foster, they said this is the first time they have encountered such a situation."
"To ensure your personal safety, the repair department wants to replace your machine with a brand new one of the same model, and then send your broken one back to the head office. The repair department at the head office wants to study what exactly went wrong."
John asked, "How many days will it take?"
"Considering your usage needs, we will expedite the arrangement...it should be possible to come tomorrow..."
Before Sophia Rosewood could finish, John interrupted her, "No, it's best to replace it for me today. I have to log into the game tonight."
Sophia Rosewood hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay Mr. Foster, I'll contact them, we'll deliver a brand new machine to you this afternoon."
She knew that the company really valued John as a VIP.
If it's John's request, the headquarter won't refuse.
At worst, they could just give John the brand new machine in the store first.
Seeing that she agreed, John said satisfyingly:
"Alright, I'll be waiting at home this afternoon."
...
Time flies quickly.
John took a nap at home and was then awakened by the doorbell.
He opened the door and found Sophia Rosewood and a few installers standing at the entrance.
"You're here." John glanced at the time, found it was almost the agreed upon time, and stepped aside.
Soon, the workers who came with Sophia unloaded John's broken holographic chamber and installed a new one.
After the workers left, John looked at Sophia Rosewood with a smile and asked, "Would you like to stay for a drink?"
Sophia Rosewood was initially worried about disturbing John, but hearing his invitation, she quickly asked, "Can I? Won't I disturb your gaming?"
John shook his head with a smile, "You are my honored guest, you won't."
Somewhat apprehensive, Sophia Rosewood asked again:
"What about Emma? Doesn't she live with you?"
It seemed that the interruption of their previous encounter by Emma had left quite an impression on Sophia Rosewood.
John corrected her, "Actually, we don't exactly live together, she's a student, she still has to go to school."
"Now she's back at school, so I'm alone."
The two sat on the sofa, getting closer and closer.
This time, no one could disturb John anymore.
Sophia Rosewood didn't resist, as she had always had a good impression of John.
After learning last time that Emma was not John's girlfriend, she had let go of her concerns.
What's so strange about having something happen between a single, excellent man?
Not to mention John is so charming...
Sophia Rosewood felt that it was a fortunate thing to be with such a mature and charming man for the first night.
