In the year 2067, the sudden advancement of technology happened during the 40 years after the Crown virus was cured, even a third world country is having 1Gb/per second internet speed. Today's technology trend is neurotechnology which was started by a company called Newla Link over 50 years ago.
Lots of devices and tools are developed such as the neurophone, neurocars and even neurobots that are used for fighting tournaments is also a big trend today. But there is another thing that made the world amazed especially the AGC community besides the lifelike robot doll, the full-dive virtual reality!
Today's popular FDVRMMORPG is The Tower of Wish, this is based on the popular anime 50 years ago which started the dream of making an FDVRMMORPG.
Beautiful looking weather in the early morning, two young men were sitting on the bench in the park.
"Bro, do you think Guacamole Guild will clear the Hell's gate dungeon on the 999th floor and successfully become the first to enter the 1000th floor?" A fat guy with glasses said to his friend.
"Maybe. I'm not expecting high on their dungeon run. Remember they just entered the 999th floor in a week and I'm sure their types of equipment aren't good based on the data they shared. I'm guessing they will be wiped out after meeting the second mini-boss." The young man with a lazy look on his face said to his buddy.
"Heh? You are talking as if you already cleared that dungeon, I almost believe you!" The fat buddy of the young man laughed.
The young man shrugged his shoulders and rested his back on the bench. The young man's name is Xander Ford he is a handsome-looking man with sexy-looking brown eyes and black short hair that is styled in a pompadour style.
Xander is a reincarnated guy from 40 years ago during the spread of the Crown virus.
Xander was a nurse in his past life that is helping to solve the pandemic crisis at that time and unfortunately died because he was infected by the Crown virus.
The last thing he was thinking when he was about to die was the school days that he can freely play online games and have fun with his friends.
"I wish I can play some games again." The last thing Xander said after he died and reincarnated to the future.
"Westley, what do you think about the 1000th floor?" Xander sipped his drink.
"I don't know, maybe it's the same as the theme of 990th to 999th floor, a place filled with demonic-looking monsters and dried trees." Westley, the fat man with glasses replied and ate his burger.
"Hmm, maybe," Xander said in a low tone. There is a secret that only Xander knows about the Tower of Wish, that is there is nothing on the 1000th floor because he alone finished the 999th with his main account.
Xander is the Top 1 global Guardian Knight class and also the Top 1 in global overall rank.
The one he is using during the days he was playing with Westley and his friends is one of his spare accounts, in short, he is smurfing and carrying some of his friends in the dungeon or farming in the field area.
"Hey, do you know? Astoria Pendragon the top ranker suddenly stopped playing after reaching the current max level cap, It's been a week since she went offline." Westley crumbled the wrapper of his burger and threw it on the nearby trashcan.
"I think she's just busy in real life who knows?" Xander also threw the plastic bottle of his finished drink into the trashcan. The Astoria Pendragon Westley was talking about is Xander's main account.
Yes, Xander is playing as a female. The day that Xander was creating his avatar he thought of trolling and get some simp players to become his slaves in the early game since he can make his voice sound like an authentic female gamer.
The name of his character is based on one of his favorite anime characters 40 years ago.
Xander's plan succeeded, lots of simps worked for him in the early game. They offered their most precious possession to their beloved goddess Astoria.
After a week of slaving simps plan, Xander revealed that he was a man.
But what happened is not the thing Xander expects.
'These guys, they should be angry at me and take back their items but what in the actual f*ck is going on?' Xander thought while looking at the amazed expression on the face of the simps.
"As expected of Astoria-sama!"
"Truly talented!"
"Whoa! Astoria-chan can do an ikemen voice, and it sounds so cool."
"Even if Astoria-sama has a sword between her legs I would still love her."
"Yeah right, there is an old saying in the meme era. If there's a hole there's a way!"
"A hole is a hole."
Xander's expression became weird and felt a chill on his spine when he heard some of the simp's comments.
Xander thought of deleting his character but the time and effort he invested in his character made him not delete it.
After that day, Xander became more elusive to the simps and farmed and level up alone.
He also ended up using a lot of money to buy an in-game item cloak that hides the name and other pieces of information about him when players nearby are inspecting him.
The Astoria Cult thought that their goddess quit playing but after half a year their admiration for their Goddess Astoria grew more.
[Congratulations Player/s: Astoria Pendragon for clearing the 299th-floor boss dungeon Furious Harpy's Gate!]
[Because someone reached the 300th floor an UPDATE will be starting after an hour.]
"Goddess Astoria is still playing!!"
"Oh my god! It's real!"
"And she soloed the 299th floor's boss dungeon!"
"Wow! I thought the fastest players today is the Milky Guild?"
"Yeah, and they only reached 291st floor but Goddess Astoria slapped the shit out of them and reached 300th floor! The best part is she soloed the entire dungeon!"
When the Astoria Cult members are praising their goddess, Xander was full of curses because he accidentally agreed to announce the players who cleared the dungeon for the first time in the entire server.
Soon the Astoria Cult recruited a lot of simps that amazed Astoria Pendragon. A Guardian Knight soloed the first clear of 291st to 299th floor.
The cult became an official guild and their goal is to recruit their goddess Astoria herself to become the Guild leader of the Astoria's Shields Guild.
Xander was flooded with guild invites from the Astoria's Sim- Shields Guild and turned off the allow guild invitation option.
5 years passed Xander reached the 999th floor and now battling with the floor boss.
The boss was a gigantic 30-meter skeleton centipede with a human skull as its head. The hollowed eyes of the skull have a chilling red glow on the center of it.
"ROAAAAAR!!!" The deafening roar of the boss toward Xander created a shockwave that pushed his character a few centimeters back.
"That roar made me a handicapped, damn this ringing sound in my head." Xander's eyes narrowed then he activated his buff skill, [Iron Castle], [Dragon's Vitality], and [Reflect Damage].
Xander lowered his stance then he gripped his sword and shield tightly.
[Level 900 Al'Khatmund.]
[357M/357M HP.]
After the name and hit points of the floor's boss appeared Xander let out a battle-hungry smile.
"[Total Demolition Charge]!!" Xander's body was coated with a raging fire-like glow then he charged towards the boss.
"ROAAAARRR!!!" The dungeon boss stomped its front legs then it also charged towards Xander
BOOM!
3 hours later, with Xander's persistent attacks and inventory loaded with healing Items well some skillfully timed evasions too, Al'Katmund has finally fallen!
Astoria dropped to the floor and heavily breathed.
The body of Al'Katmund turned into particles of light and a black cool looking treasure chest appeared at the center of the vanished corpse.
[You received 2,747,393,993,648 EXP.]
[You leveled up!]
"Finally I'm level 999 now."
Xander drank another stamina potion then he stood up and went to the chest.
Xander got a lot of gold coins, some high-tier armors of other classes, and importantly a set of weapons for Guardian Knight.
[Al'Khatmund's 1-Handed Sword of Rage.]
[Al'Khatmund's Shield of Malice.]
"Lucky!" Xander happily equipped the two weapons.
Both of the weapons are ordinary-looking but there's some ancient-looking engravings on them that make them look simple yet cool.
The 999th-floor dungeon suddenly shook and a Gate appeared in the middle of the boss room.
[Congratulations Player/s: Astoria Pendragon for clearing the 999th-floor boss dungeon Al'Khatmund's Den!]
[Would you like to announce your achievement?]
"No." Xander nonchalantly answered then he entered the gate.
The 1000th floor has nothing inside of it, it's just like an infinite pure white space beside his character and the gate there's nothing inside.
"Is this a bug?" Xander asked himself and decided to report it to the customer care service but he cannot contact the service provider. Even his friend list and guild aren't available.
"Weird," Xander muttered.
"There's no teleportation fountain here so I can't go to the lower floors. I'll just log out for now and wait for others to climb to the 1000th floor.

Xander successfully logged out from the game and stood up from FDVR Cabin.
