full immersion, thanks to the AOUA Robe costume, our players are put into the future world with fantastic opportunities, adventures, stories, where the main goal of each player will be to find ‘The Eye of God’ and ‘The Hand of God.’ Anyone who finds them, regardless of the level, the chosen class, and is the first to bring them to the right place, will be the first winner and will receive one million dollars and five percent of our company shares.”
The game will start three months later. The first twenty lucky winners, who are lucky in the lottery, will get a free AOUA Robe and ten thousand dollars, a lot of opportunities in the development of the character, being the first in the passage of all possible assignments.
“Alexey, but isn’t this kind of games already developed in our world? This is not a novelty. What is different about your game?”
“The difference is that being completely in AOUA Robe, your body repeats all your actions in the game. If you learn to swim in the game, then in life you can then become a first-class swimmer. Your muscles are not only subject to atrophy, but, on the contrary, they acquire in the course of time maximum youth and elasticity.”
“So, you are going to say: if I do abs exercise and practice blows in the game, then in real life I will have an ideal figure?”
“Yes.”
“How does this happen?”
VLADIVOSTOK, AUGUST 15, 2057
“Hurry up! Bunch of dead cockroaches! After forty minutes, the ship must already sail! If you won’t be in time, I’ll shove your heads in your a…..! Frozen herrings!”
In the port there was always windy, the difference was only in the level of trauma danger. In winter, it was worst of all: the frosts at night sometimes fell to minus thirty. Then we had to fight not only with the weight of the cargo but also with the risk to freeze ourselves the “quail’.
The principle is simple: came, completed work, got money, left. There are changing rooms, a dining room and a shower on the territory.
“Listen, taciturn, Vasilich is yelling at you! Come on, go ahead, man!” – said Cyril.
It was a mockery, because only Serega dragged boxes, all the other men had another smoke break.
“Haha! Yes, move, because we are tired! Ah-ha!” – local workers neighed.
Sergey did not care. He was used to ridicules of his “colleagues.”
He did not consider as necessary to answer them and go down to their level. He simply kept silent. These jokes were nothing in comparison with what happened three years ago.
Only Uncle Vasily remembers how, after the shift, he found a young boy, all beaten up, in blood.
Then, having earned five grand for a shift, Serega was happy, but not for long: the next guest workers quickly emptied his pockets, not forgetting to threaten that they would cut him if he were to complain.
“Lord, what is going on! Boy, are you alive?”
Vasily tried to stifle a bunch of dirty rags.
Mmm, it hurts … – and the boy’s head jerked back.
“He seems to be alive. But if he dies, then there will be a lot of problems, the only thing we need is to deal with cops, f..” – thought Vasily Dmitrievich.
“Well, he’s alive! Let’s go, to my place, you’ll drink, you’ll wash yourself, rotten barracudas.”
Uncle Vasya then dragged a lean boy to himself, made him drink vodka, made him wash up and put him to sleep. For the first time after drinking alcohol, Serega quickly passed out.
All this was he remembered again. Sighing heavily, he picked up the bale and headed for the car.
“Sergey, are you dreaming? Come on, come on, tempo-tempo!” – Cyril did not stop.
“Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!” – everyone croaked again. But when they saw Vasilich coming out again from the booth, they tossed cigarette butts and lined up in a row to carry the load. This old man could leave them without payment.
“Sergey! Come on over here!” – And again disappeared in the belly of the “blue-rusty whale’.
“I’m coming!” – quickly dragging the next bale to the truck, Sergey wiped his hands with a rag and went into the almost blue trailer.
For three years, almost every night, he carried a variety of cargoes, there was no one who could withstand such loads for so long.
But he did not have much choice. His dirty, patched overall he figured as a uniform of superhero. This way it was easier to carry all the shit that was going on in the port.
The door of the trailer creaked and he went inside. Yes, nothing has changed here in three years. The same perfect order, everything in its place: the table near the window and the bench on the side, two chairs and an electric kettle, boiling water.
“I wonder if he ever turns it off?” thought Serega.
“Come in, sit down, I have to talk to you.”
There was one thing Sergei realized: you’d better not play jokes on Uncle Vasya,
and if he has to talk to you, it is always on the matter.
“Listen, you should not appear in the port in the next three months,” – Vasily Dmitrievich raised his tanned wrinkled hand and stopped Serega. – “Stop, stop, I’m aware of your position.”
The jumped guy slowly sat back on the stool.
“But you understand that we will have checks here. The Japanese smuggle contraband, the big dough is paid on top, and we suffer. Do you want some tea? According to a special recipe!”
“No, no, I will not have tea. Heck! What shall I do?” – he did not expect such a bummer, and especially not now. – “Heck! Heck!”
Sergey inclined his head, already thinking about what kind of work he could find to combine with the university.
“Do not swear in my presence. I have decided to give you an advance for these three months of idle time, but keep in mind, then you will work it all off. Here, there are three hundred and twenty thousand that is less than what you earn, but at least something. Your grandfather, probably, needs to change the wheelchair. Besides, you will have a rest, it is summer after all, and you here all days long.”
That’s what was stunning for Sergey: no one gave him money – that’s right, in advance, or you can say, just like that!
“It’s now past five, so take the money and get out, then the GRU, Alpha-shmalfa and other fun-loving guys, checking guest workers, and just at six am sharp, will begin, f….”
“Vasily Dmitrievich, thank you!” – They shook hands firmly. – “I’ll call you in about three months!”
“Yes, yes, call. If the brains of the old walrus will not be completely withered.”
Vasily looked at the back of a young, healthy guy and was surprised: in three years almost everyday loads made a bulldog of a puppy. Only his eyes remained puppy like. Having spat, the chief went about his business. He began to prepare tea – according to a special recipe of “navy seals’.
Before leaving, he went to the shower, washed himself, changed his clothes, folded his uniform in a bag and closed it in the locker. The key was dangling on a bunch, as well as a special pass to the dock.
“What’s to be done now? – He thought. – I’m already used to this place, to the smell of the port, to the ships.”
Work in the dock as a loader was regarded as one of the most dangerous. But they paid well and the schedule was free. He had to get up at three-twenty am, prepare breakfast for his little brother and
