Chapter 4: This... This is the Demon God World Gaming Helmet!
Four days later...
Bai Feng had been extremely busy during these four days. He had signed the sale agreement for their house with a real estate company, using the excuse of moving their belongings to stay for a few extra days. Bai Yu was completely unaware of Bai Feng's actions and didn't even know that the house had been sold.
After selling the house, Bai Feng entered the gaming stock market and invested. The investment amount was seventeen million. Yes, seventeen million. He had sold his property for twenty million and invested the bulk of it into the gaming market. In the gaming world, even an investment of one million was considered a lot. Bai Feng's investment of seventeen million drew the attention of many gaming companies, as such a massive amount was rare in the industry. While his actions seemed incredibly risky to others, as someone from the future, he already knew how everything would unfold.
Early this morning, Bai Feng received news that a vacant condo floor he had been looking for was available. He immediately called lawyers, the floor owner, and real estate agents to sign the agreement and purchase the condo unit. The unit was 150 square meters, costing ten thousand per square meter. It included a spacious living room, a kitchen, two bedrooms, a bathroom, and an additional vacant room. Including the bed, desk, and furniture, the total cost came to approximately 2.3 million. Now, including Zhu Guo Han's money and his own savings, Bai Feng had only about eight hundred thousand left. He then contacted an interior design agency to purchase all necessary items and decorations, transferring another hundred thousand for the service fees. Now, Bai Feng had only about seven hundred thousand in cash remaining.
The renovation agency called to inform him that they could move in tomorrow. Bai Feng felt a slight sense of relief. If the agency hadn't finished by the next day, they would have had to stay temporarily in a hotel. Hotel expenses were high; even a decent hotel cost five hundred per night. Bai Feng was glad to save that money. By the end of tonight, they would have to move out of their old house. Bai Feng called out to Bai Yu.
"What is it, Big Brother? I told you I'm busy. Don't do what you did last time."
"Come on, I'm just here to tell you some good news."
"What good news? Did you win the lottery, Big Brother?"
Hearing Bai Yu's nonsense, Bai Feng shook his head and got straight to the point.
"We're moving to a new house tomorrow."
Bai Yu's eyes widened in shock. "Big Brother, did you buy a new house?"
Bai Feng nodded and spoke seriously. "Yeah. That's why we'll be living in the new house starting tomorrow. You'll like it. I've had a Gaming Sport room built for you, connected to your bed. Also, I've set up an IO computer—the latest version—for you. So, do you want to move?"
"I'm moving! I'm moving! I'll move right now!"
Bai Yu's face looked ecstatic. He shouted that he would move immediately and ran into his room as if a snake were chasing him. Bai Feng slapped his own forehead and shook his head. Then, he opened his phone and checked the official page of the Nico Game Company.

[Register now to purchase for 15,000!]
Bai Feng immediately registered and paid for two people. The delivery address was the fourth floor of the condo he had just bought in the city center. After arranging everything, Bai Feng smiled. Tomorrow, Nico Company would deliver the gaming helmets via their transport vehicles. The price of 15,000 for a gaming helmet was substantial, making it unaffordable for many ordinary people. Although there were only about five million initial orders now, the global gaming market would skyrocket after the first day of launch.
"Finally, the starting point of my new life is beginning again."
Early the next morning...
"Wow! This is where we're going to live? Big Brother, did you buy this entire floor?"
"Yeah, this entire floor belongs to us. What do you think? It's huge, right?"
Bai Feng and Bai Yu stood looking at the floor in front of them, feeling satisfied. The renovation agency had decorated the apartment beautifully and cleanly, living up to their reputation.
Bai Feng checked the time; it was almost nine o'clock. They should be starting the delivery of the gaming helmets now. Bai Feng pointed toward a room and told Bai Yu, "That's your room over there. Go check it out."
Excitedly, Bai Yu carried his bags and entered his private room. Bai Feng also entered his own room and arranged his belongings. His room was clean and tidy, with the bed positioned next to the glass window. Bai Feng lay down on the brand-new mattress and rested for a bit. He was exhausted from waking up before sunrise to pack and the car ride. He needed to rest for a while.
Bai Feng closed his eyes and rested.
Ding... Ding... Ding...
When Bai Feng opened his eyes, he realized it was almost noon. The doorbell was ringing repeatedly. Checking the time, he saw it was 11:00 AM. He hurriedly got up and opened the door.
"Hello, sir. We're here to deliver the gaming helmets you ordered."
Bai Feng looked at the two large boxes in the man's hands. He knew the gaming helmets had arrived. The delivery man took out a document and said, "Please sign here, sir."
"Alright."
Bai Feng signed, took the two boxes, and closed the door. He carried the boxes into the living room and called for Bai Yu.
"What is it now?"
"Don't say anything yet. Look at this. What are these?"
Bai Feng pointed to the two boxes on the table. Bai Yu's eyes immediately widened.
"This... this is the Demon God World Gaming Helmet!"
Bai Yu looked closer, unable to believe it. Then, in a stuttering voice, he said, "This... this is a real gaming helmet! Big Brother, you actually bought two? One costs fifteen thousand! I've wanted to play this game so badly since the first advertisement. My friends have been bragging about their orders. Today is the day the international game server opens! I really didn't expect to play it on the very first day of launch!"
Watching Bai Yu talk incessantly, Bai Feng laughed and shook his head.
"Alright, stop talking. Take one and go try it out."
Bai Yu's face immediately broke into a crescent-shaped grin. "Hehe! Big Brother is the best! I'm going to play now!"
Bai Yu took one box and ran into his room. Bai Feng also took his and entered his room. The game world was about to officially open.
