Chapter 15 - Monstrous Internet Speed.

Next day.

Last night, Apollo bought a few things from Atlas, a router and a sim.

The reason Apollo wanted to buy this is to give back to his customers who buy his food at a ludicrous price.

The router came from the year 2200 where the internet has evolved to the point that a mere terabyte of storage can't even be counted as memory. The sim he bought has an unlimited bandwidth, capable to have speeds up to one petabyte. (1024 Terabyte.). The speed is overkill but it only cost him a few points, so he didn't really care.

The router's overall design is a bit... weird. It's a small box that is the same size as a regular person's palm, in each corner, there are needle-sized antennas poking out. Meanwhile, the sim's outer appearance is also a bit weird, it looks like a sewing needle.

The signal isn't a problem as the router's range is the size of a country and the person connected could still access the internet even if said person is a dozen kilometres away.

Apollo didn't care about the technical details and set up the router, he placed the sim behind the router and turned it on. The reason why he didn't plug it into an outlet is because it runs on crystals, on a normal battery, a crystal contains approximately 30,000 mAh, it could last up to months even if it stayed on during the duration.

He placed it on the counter and change the username and password of the wifi, and opened the restaurant.

Kate and the gang's silhouette could be seen in the distance, Justin and his friends are chatting not far from them.

They arrived at the restaurant and went to their usual positions, Justin and his friends set up their laptops in their respective tables, Kate and her friends sat on the counter, meanwhile Levi is absent.

"Az, get your pocket wifi out, let's try playing league today, I'm tired of destroying noobs in CSGO." Justin said.

Azrael stared at him and shook his head, "You guys used up all the data."

"How about you Vince? Did you bring yours?"

"It's charging at home. Why don't you bring out yours? Stop being a cheapskate!"

Justin laid his back on the chair, "Ughh, what's the point of bringing our laptops then?!"

Kate heard their chat and intervened, "You guys could just connect to the boss' wifi."

Justin turned stiff, 'Oh my god! She talked to me!'

He stood up from his seat and asked Apollo for the wifi password, Apollo gave it to him and returned to cooking the fried rice while cooking the fried chicken at the same time.

Justin got back to his seat and connected to the wifi, same with Vincent and Azrael. When using public wifi, the trio always uses a VPN to avoid getting their information stolen. They turned on their Vpn's and change the location to their country so that they could play with people in the country.

Whenever they play using public wifi, they would first check the latency to avoid playing with bad internet, Justin went to a speed test site and checked the speed, the latency is 0 but something weird happened to the site as it only showed "Error" on both the Download speed and the Upload speed.

"Boss, is your wifi broken or something?" Justin asked from his seat.

Apollo didn't reply, so Justin tried it on different speed test sites but got the same thing. He went to his steam library and tried to download games to check the speed, as he had a ton of games in his library, he tried to find the largest game, he found Final Fantasy XV with a file size of over 100Gb.

He right-clicked the game and clicked download, just as he was about to pick up the cup of coffee in his table, the download already finished and his pc is currently writing all the data required so the game will be playable.

Justin stared at his laptop screen, dumbfounded.

The wifi isn't for free though, Apollo only gave them the password because they were his regulars, he won't do this again. Only VIP customers and the Miller family could access the wifi from now on.

...

Justin and his friends played in their tables happily, meanwhile, Kate is asking Apollo some personal questions, or rather, interrogating him, but Apollo still answered them. He didn't know why but chatting with Kate relieves his soul for some reason, it's like Kate is 'The One.' people keep talking about.

The three packed their bags and left the restaurant, meanwhile, Justin and his friends stayed for the rest of the day and kept playing, they just plugged their laptops in a nearby outlet when it's low on battery.

Levi just sat on the corner, seemingly waiting for something to happen and on guard.
