This Text Adventure Game is Totally Poisonous

"Close server...maintenance..."

Mu You was shocked.

After working on it for a long time, the reason why the astral world is destroyed every four thousand years is that the server load is limited, and it needs to be shut down and restarted regularly...

But it's right to think about it carefully. For the protoss, they don't care about the life and death of the creatures in the astral world. After all, they are just created virtual worlds, not to mention that all creatures will be regenerated after restarting.

Just like human beings, do they care about the destruction of a game world? I don’t know how many games are shut down and offline every day on the Internet. After clearing the level or not making money, delete the file and restart the new game. Who cares about the biological feelings in the game world? ?

"The various magics and equipment we use now are actually a kind of virtual system created by relying on the magical arts and props of the original giant world, which can only take effect in the astral world, and do not exist in the real world. .” said the old man.

This is not surprising to Mu You, just like in the games made by humans, those incomparably heaven-defying abilities are destined to only exist in the games. If you really want to bring the abilities in literature, games and other works into the real world, The world is bound to be messed up.

"In fact, the fact that we are all virtual creatures is absolutely undetectable within the scope of the astral world, because this is the thought that was carved into our genes at the beginning of creation to prevent us from being born with independent consciousness Steel seal: It is impossible for a mortal to try to get close to the gods, even if they have such a thought, but if anyone has a little understanding, he will immediately feel nausea, fear and many other discomforts, thus self-denying this possibility." The old man explain.

"So in theory, the Astral World is a perfect world model. We internal NPCs can only follow their own set behavior programs and work repeatedly day after day until the catastrophe comes and everything is destroyed. Restart and start a new cycle.”

"However, I don't know whether it is because the gods have been extinct for too long, or because of human intervention. In short, this ideological seal gradually became loose with the passage of time, until one day more than five thousand years ago, the first fool Awaken!"

"This fool was originally just a very ordinary person in the human race, until one day, he suddenly felt a kind of incompatibility with the world. Driven by curiosity, he entered the Tower of the Fool that others feared to avoid. , and coincidentally cleared the tower, saw the real world outside the tower, understood all the truth, and thus became the world's number one fool!"

"This man is the ancestor of all of us. It is impossible to verify the fate of this ancestor and whether he is still alive. In short, after he awakened, he was like a robot that suddenly broke away from Asimov's three laws. Surrounded by NPCs who are as muddle-headed as he was before, working non-stop along the established routine, he feels outraged."

"He began to spread the truth of the world to his compatriots desperately, trying to wake up others."

"There are indeed some people who were awakened by him and awakened the spirit of exploration. Under his guidance, they entered the Tower of the Fool and cleared the level. They witnessed the truth of the world and became new fools one after another. This kind of fire continued to burn. , everyone spontaneously began to try to wake up others, and the Fool's team expanded rapidly."

"However, they soon discovered that not all of them could be awakened."

"The vast majority of people can't understand what they said at all, and think that they are lunatics, blasphemy cults, and they have united to take the initiative to launch a crusade against the fool."

"There are still a small number of elites who understand and accept the illusory rhetoric of the fools, but they still have no desire to explore, and they still dare not approach the Tower of the Fools. Instead, they join the team to crusade against the fools."

"It wasn't until a large number of compatriots were strangled and burned to death that the remaining fools realized that not everyone has the conditions to become fools. We will never wake up those who pretend to be asleep. Now the fools can only hide Be on your own, be on your own.”

"You should know everything after that."

The old man sighed: "The fools quietly fled to the forgotten land with the remains of the gods excavated everywhere. After escaping the catastrophe and everything settled down, the fools returned to the star spirit world. In order to avoid repeating the same mistakes, this time No one mentioned the truth anymore, they just used their foresight to easily rule the mainland, and used the most populous human race as coolies to build twelve sky cities..."

"I see."

Mu You nodded, and asked again: "What about the Earth? What role does the Forgotten Land play in these two worlds?"

"The Forgotten Land is a planet made by the gods, and it is also the template for the creation of the Astral World, so the terrain of the Astral World has a lot of similarities with the Earth. Of course, the Astral World is not the same as the Earth. It is as simple as copying it, but after dozens of copying and pasting of the earth, the resulting large symmetrical world, the most primitive map of the astral world, is dozens of times larger than the earth." The old man explained.

"Wait..." Mu You was taken aback after hearing this, and frowned, "You said that the earth is a man-made world...meaning, the earth is also a real world?"

"Of course, but only the earth itself is real, and the protozoa on it are also virtual creatures created by the gods." The old man said.

"But, why is the earth in the real world able to use the power of magic normally?" Mu You was puzzled. If the earth is really the same as the world of giants, then the rules should be the same, level suppression is invalid, star suppression is effective, and magic and equipment cannot be used at the same time.

But the fact is on the contrary, the rules of the earth are completely different from the world of giants, but very similar to the world of astral spirits.

"This is because of the breaking of the 'wall', or the invasion of the 'toxin' of magic power." The old man smiled wryly.

"Magic power is...toxin?" Mu You was stunned.

"Yes, I don't know what the principle is, but in short, the energy of magic power is the source of the creation of virtual worlds."

"The original positioning of the Forgotten Land was a 'refuge' specially reserved for the protoss in order to prevent certain accidents, such as some tribesmen who did not have time to go offline during the catastrophe period. Hide in it to prevent careless clansmen from being wiped out by the Calamity Chronicle."

"In order to prevent the two worlds from polluting each other, when the gods created the astral world, they deliberately used an extremely strong wall to separate the two worlds, and prevented any intelligent creatures other than the gods from passing through. Wall, go to the other side."

The old man breathed out: "Therefore, of course, the original Forgotten Land could not release any magic. Until more than four thousand years ago, the ancestors of the Fools forcibly broke the 'wall' and came to the Forgotten Land in order to save their lives. There is a crack in the wall, and once the crack in the wall is formed, it will spread endlessly until the two worlds are completely connected!"

"And after more than four thousand years of development, today's walls are riddled with holes, and the Forgotten Land has already been fully infiltrated by magic power. It has changed from a physical world to a semi-virtual world."

"so……"

Mu You frowned. The administrator's explanation gave him a flash of inspiration, and he had a strange idea.

After pondering for a moment, he suddenly opened his mouth and asked a question that silenced the audience.

"If the invasion of magic power can change the earth from a solid to a virtual world, then what if the magic power also invades the world of giants? Can the world of giants be homogenized like us?"

"ah……"

Several administrators were taken aback when they heard the words, and looked at each other, but they all saw the surprise on each other's faces.

Use the magic power created by the Protoss to counter-corrode the world of the Protoss?

They really haven't thought about this problem. After all, it's only in recent years that the earth has become a semi-virtual world, and they have only just understood this law.

What's more, in recent years, they have been working diligently to perfect the "Fool" game, and they have no time at all, and they dare not imagine such a bold possibility.

"This is theoretically possible..."

The original old man pondered: "But the world of giants is a higher-dimensional world than ours after all. It's hard to say whether the magic power will work on their side. What's more, we don't have a way to send a large amount of magic power there."

"Even if it's possible, it's impossible!"

At this time, another old man said seriously: "It took thousands of years for the magical power to blur the earth, not to mention the god race world that is countless times the size of the earth, and don't forget, the next catastrophe It’s close at hand, instead of thinking about these things, it’s better to think about how to survive the catastrophe.”

"Okay, what solutions do you guys have for the issue of the Great Disaster Record? But it's okay." Mu You also realized that it seemed a bit whimsical, so he didn't bring up this topic again, and asked a few people for advice.

These ancient fools have personally been to the high heavens, and they must know much more information than him. At this time, it is a little bit more information.

"It's actually not difficult to shut down the Catastrophe Chronicle. The key point is to find a place called 'Mountain of Creation'."

The old man said: "The so-called Chuangjie Mountain is the place where the gods used to create the Astral World. It is equivalent to the 'main server' of the Astral World. You can modify all settings related to the astral world!"

It really is Chuangjie Mountain...

Mu You breathed out, the former owner of the Shadow God once said that as long as he found the Chuangjie Mountain, he could solve all the problems in the astral world.

"Is this place hard to find?" Mu You asked again.

"Yes, because Chuangjie Mountain has its own super hidden ability, and there is no fixed location. It will appear in different locations at different times."

The old man sighed and told Mu You a secret of the past: "When we landed in Gaotian, we actually found the location of Chuangjie Mountain. Unfortunately, Chuangjie Mountain happened to appear in the territory occupied by the God-devouring Beast. Difficult to approach without being detected..."

As if recalling the thrilling memories at the time, another old man also said with emotion: "We were able to retreat completely at that time. If we retreated directly at that time, we only need to die and retain a considerable part of our vitality. It's a pity , our leader, who was the inheritor of the God of Order at that time, ordered us to continue fighting. Under the cover of our hard work, the leader finally managed to sneak into the Chuangjie Mountain, but the price was that all members were parasitized later... "

"Oh? So the first generation of order descendants entered Chuangjie Mountain?" Mu You was taken aback.

"Yes. But the time is too short, even the leader can't find a way to close the catastrophe."

"However, the leader finally brought out some special permissions from it and gave it to us. This is also the basis for the few of us to create the "Fool" game." Another old man said with emotion: "At that time, the leader actually wanted to Everything is done: sacrifice our generation, and bet our hopes on the future, you descendants..."

"Understood……"

Mu You nodded: "Let's talk about the problem of black holes."

"These black holes are actually the vacancies left in Gaotian after the return of our sky city. At that time, the leader repaired all the black holes with the power of order, but because of the limited time, only three holes were perfectly repaired. Others Nine have left flaws and are at risk of cracking again in the future."

"According to our estimation, these black holes will not crack until decades later, before the cataclysm is approaching, but we didn't expect it to crack so quickly..." The old man shook his head: "As for how to repair these holes, you Should have known..."

"Sky City..."

Mu You nodded. The previous operation of Dawn City has provided them with an example.

The vacancy caused by Sky City can only be filled by Sky City.

In other words, they still need to let at least eight sky cities fly into the sky in order to completely plug these gaps and relieve the crisis on the earth.

"Of course, Sky City Flying Sky doesn't fly casually. If you really want to fly up without any preparation, you're making a living target for the beasts. Just like the current Dawn City, you don't make any cover-ups, and you go straight to the sky. After entering the pile of giants, I am afraid that it has been occupied by the God-devouring Beasts..." an old man regretted.

"What are you afraid of? That old guy is very shrewd. He won't trade at a loss. If he dares to do this, he must be sure to escape with the skeleton. In the end, he will only leave an empty city for the enemy." Another old man suddenly sneered.

"etc!"

Mu You suddenly interrupted a few people: "You mean, you all recognize the person who stole Dawn City?"

"cough……"

Speaking of this, several people are a little embarrassed.

One of the old men blushed and said: "That guy... was actually a member of us before, but that guy's thinking is more extreme, he disagrees with our salvation plan, and insists on saving fools in his own way. He fought with us decades ago. We parted ways, this guy knows everything about us, and we can't do anything about him..."

"Of course, although that guy doesn't agree with our three views, what he did was indeed for the fools. At least he will definitely not surrender to the enemy. We can guarantee this." The old man faintly defended the old man.

"I see……"

Mu You didn't get too entangled with the old man's affairs, no matter what the other party's purpose was, this time he did save the earth in the end.

"So what is the premise of flying in Sky City?" Mu You asked.

"The city level has reached at least level six!" the old man said firmly.

"A fifth-level sky city will unlock the ecological bubble. Only when this thing is built well can the ordinary residents of the sky city resist the extreme and harsh environment during the flight until everyone reaches the sky safely."

Seeing that Mu You was puzzled, the old man explained with a smile: "This is because during the process of flying the city, the player must stay online in real time, otherwise when crossing the boundary between the two worlds, all creatures that are not on the sky city will be deleted. The character still stays in the astral world."

"At LV6, Sky City will unlock a building called a 'fog tower', which can help Sky City hide its aura and appearance to the greatest extent, so as to avoid being noticed by the god-eating beasts once it goes to the sky."

"And these things, we must complete in the next two or three months, the sooner the better! Otherwise, once other black holes are discovered by the God-devouring Beast, it will be too late."

The old man said with a serious expression: "In short, the proposal of our old men is to raise at least eight sky cities to LV6 or above within three months, and take off players who are willing to go to the high sky to block all the black holes. We call it the Sky Mending Project!"
