<h4>Chapter 1174 - GameBoys! 2</h4>


    9 A.M!


    The store guards came out wearing full protective gear and also holding see-through guard shields too.


    From the looks of it, they were more than aware of how deadly thesepetitions were.


    F***! Do you know how many of them had been indirectly beaten and thrown away by civilians?


    The craziness of the city was always when something new and never seen before popped up.


    Hell! Even the tourists who frequently visited Baymard knew of this.


    That''s why one can see them also wearing gym wear and sneakers, along with the Baymardians... Because today, they fight for victory!


    The guards stepped out and looked at each other as if preparing for war.


    Their muscles bulged, and their bodies remained tense while taking defensive poses.


    And at the same time, a worker stepped out with a microphone and a g in his hand.


    "Store hours are now open!


    For today, the first 15 customers will get a single Gameboy or Gamegirl... As well as 3 games to insert for free! Any more than 3 games, and you will buy them.


    Again, the next 100 customers will get the same items for 50% off.


    And thest 150 customers will get it for 20% off instead.


    Everyone else will get it at full price!"


    Everyone listening couldn''t help bubbling excitedly again.


    Of course, they had read about the discounts on the catalogues and even seen the adverts about it all too.


    But you know... Hearing it again had made some right at the back of the line blessed in regret.


    Dammit! Why didn''t they juste sooner?


    Why didn''t they spend the night out camping here?


    A wave of energy bursts into Ian''s bloodstream as he realized that he should be within the range of people that would get 50% off... No... It should be that he was almost close to the group that would get just 29% off.


    So Imagine those who came at 8 or even close to 9 A.M instead?


    Heh. They don''t stand a chance for discounts!


    Those right upfront who would get the items for free, we''re the most worried.


    Now, everything depended on their skills of picking and dashing towards the cashiers fast.


    Yes! Even though they were at the front of the line, what if they yed and fell into the 80% category off?


    Those who picked the fastest were the real winners here.


    With that, they hastily stretched their arms and even jumped a bit as if preparing for a race.


    And coupled with their sneakers and gym wear, they truly looked like they were about topete.


    Their eyes turned serious as they started at the open space behind the doors with blood in their eyes.


    .


    The worker finished his announcement as fast as he could, lest they started booing him away.


    He didn''t even dare to talk about the discounts on the 2 new home appliances they got.


    His manager said he should tell them. But forget it.


    He wasn''t about to stamp his own death warrant, alright?


    ~Gulp.


    Looking at the anxious crowd with blood in their eyes, the worker hastened his talking pace as much as he could: "That''s all for now. Other store discounts for other products can be discussed within the stores. Everyone is now weed in!" He said while waving his g and running away.


    Greenlight!


    They now had the green light!


    Like an elephant stampede, countless people rushed, making the guards even more helpless.


    "Order! Order! Please stay in or...."


    ~Bam!


    The guards were pushed back towards the wall and crushed in ce by the thundering crowd.


    Want to stop them from getting in? Dream on!


    The guards gritted their teeth and forced themselves to form a formation, blocking more people from going in after a certain number entered


    They couldn''t just let thousands and thousands enter at once.


    So it was their job to block the crowd time and time again.


    Thus, today, they became the most hated group of all.


    Bam!


    "What the hell do you mean by you''re full and at maximum capacity? I can see a lot of space behind you. So what the hell are you talking about?"


    "Yeah! You just don''t want us to get those discounts, right?"


    "Look here, Mr! You better let me pass, or I''ll have you move!"


    "Move! Move! Move!"


    [Guards]: (-_-)


    .


    ~Bam! Bam! Bam!


    The crowd began pushing the guards, and at the same time, some also tried sneaking through their legs as well, but it didn''t work.


    And while the battle was going on outside, those inside also fought their way to grab as fast as possible.


    Without a doubt, all of them here were more likely to get discounts.


    But everyone wanted the free or 80% one... The rest would get the 50% off.


    Thus, everyone worked fast. And in a blink of an eye, half of the people in the store were now standing before the cashiers.


    At the same time, the workers were also diligently recing the empty shelves meticulously.


    It didn''t even take more than 15 minutes, and half the number of people were out through the exit doors, bringing in the next wave of people.


    Finally, Ian was in!


    ~Swish!


    He didn''t even bother taking a cart or basket as he dashed towards the location with the most crowd.


    Luckily, he was at the front of the line when he was let in.


    So he began his quest of jumping, moving and targeting the shelves he wanted to head to.


    He grabbed a Blueish Gameboy and the games: Pokemon, Final Fantasy, Dr. Mario, Kirby''s DreamLand and Tetris.


    Yes... These were all the games that were avable now... Of course, for today, one could get 3 out of the 5 games for free or at a discount.


    Ian was quick to head towards the Cashier and finally waited in line while wiping his sweat away.


    Looking at himself, he couldn''t help chuckling up a bit. His clothes were haphazard, with his sports headband lost somewhere in the store. Lucky, he wasn''t wearing any shirts or proper clothing... or he would have ended up with missing bu??ons instead.


    He also found that he was one of thest people within the 50% off category.


    Ian licked his lips excitedly.


    Damn. His luck today was off the roof!


    Now, with victory attained, he headed straight for home.


    That''s right. Today, he had nothing to do.


    .


    ~Bam!


    Ian closed his apartment door and quickly rushed towards the nearest plug to chart his Gameboy.


    It said to charge for 8 hours... But to be honest, he couldn''t wait for that long.


    Thus, he quickly took another bath after the deep workout and are lightly again before cing his first game into the back of the Gameboy nervously


    From there, he pressed the ON bu??on, and on the screen, the words ''Pokemon'' and ''Nintendo'' came up.


    That''s right. Landon still named the Game Company Nintendo. The name was too iconic to change.


    ~Tututututu~


    Ian watched excitedly as the music began ying from the game.


    And soon, he was brought into a world and ck and whitish-yellow.


    Ian''s eyes widened with shock and excitement as the game took him


    What was this?
