1 chapter 1 king's and warlord's online

finally it's here said Jackson as he is garbs the box with a label saying ice age studios on the top inside is the virtual helmet I still can't believe I won the contest to be a beta tester for the first truly fully virtual game in history king's and warlord's online.

a bit of background the year is 2052 the world had made great progress in technology for instance nations around the world the USA China and the EU have managed to put small research colony's on Mars and the moon and figure out how to mine resources from the moon and the medical industry have made cybernetic limbs those who lost there's in accidents it.s expansive around 10.000 dollars for a arm or leg replacemen and a another 500 dollars for yearly expectations and repairs its still worth it for some

and the gaming industry have just made a breakthrough in virtual reality for one of the biggest companies ice age studios is just launched the beta test for the first fully immersive virtual reality game's king's and warlord's online and I Jackson Middleton have won the world wide contest for one of the 50.000 bate tester's spots I am so excited to get started the servers start at 10 PM so about 4 hours the server starts at 10 PM stops at 8 am for medical professionals stated that 8 hours should be the limit

for virtual reality the ice age studios tried to reason with the medical professionals saying that gaming longer is safe but the medical professionals would not budge on this so ice studios put a timer on how long people can play but the good thing about this new game is that you can play this all night and still be fully rested and the game time is half the normal normal time speed so 8 hours in real life it is 16 hours in the game that revelation shocked the intire world.

taking the box to my room I here my mom calling me from the kitchen jack have you finished your homework. yeah mom that's my Katie Middleton is a five foot 5 tall brown hair back length hair and brown eyes lady with a well toned athletic build she is a stay at home mother she is 36 and a very loving but strict mother she pushes me to do good at school.
