I have a bunch of players on Earth

What To Do? We Can’t Go Offline?

Xiye set the return time to be the afternoon of the third day. He had given enough time to those workers he employed to bid farewell to their family and also gave himself enough time to do the same.

The harvest this time around wasn’t bad. Three billion worth of invoices and one billion of raw materials. Most probably, he wouldn’t need to worry about lacking supplies for a long time.

He felt a little regret that he didn’t manage to employ a controller instructor and a high-grade mental-job instructor.

However, he wasn’t anxious. He had already set a certain amount of funds in the network. As long as they found a suitable employee, the headhunter would immediately inform him.

This talent network was a business under the number one overlord of the Federation and had a very good reputation. Despite being established for so many years, it had never leaked a client’s information before. Hence, even if he connected to the virtual network from Mars, there was no need to worry about his coordinates being leaked.

Xiye set the gathering point of the teleportation site on the western side of the market. After bidding farewell to his father and younger sister, he came early. In the end, he discovered that those players were even earlier than him.

When those players saw him, all of them heaved a sigh of relief. When Xiye looked at their expressions, he felt a little strange. These players were more crazed than anyone when they first came here. Even after they were berated by Xiye, they would still sneak out during the night.

With them being so enthusiastic, Xiye originally was worried that they would feel reluctant to leave. But now, they actually looked like they had their hearts set on speeding home. What was the situation now?

In truth, during the first day here, the players were truly very happy when they played. But during the second day, they felt a little off. Because...they discovered that they couldn’t log off and go offline in this place!!

In the past when they were gaming, after they got tired online, they would return to the base to sleep and go offline. After going offline, they would feel extremely fatigued. This was especially so for green titan players. They would usually need to sleep about seven to eight hours before they could recover.

But over here, they were all stunned when they realized they had no way to go offline. What would happen if they couldn’t return?

They wanted to find their overlord but couldn’t find him. They couldn’t understand the language everyone was speaking around them, and they were so anxious like ants being boiled in a bot. After they had received the news that they would be returning soon, these players all decided to wait here. They were afraid they might miss the chance to go back.

This game was as expected of a semi-finished product. During missions, there actually wasn’t an option to go offline. Who could stand being online for three entire days straight?

Eh...wrong...if the truth was to be told, they didn’t feel any sense of fatigue in their hearts at all.

Things were so strange. Because when they discovered that they couldn’t go offline and were too tired, they could only go back to the hotel and sleep. In the end, they found that during the second day, they actually felt extremely refreshed.

They were frequent players of virtual games, but they had never seen any game that could recover their mental energy when actually resting in the game!

This must be hypnotism, right?

The players all felt that this was the case. This technology must have surpassed the market and could hypnotize their mental states, causing them to feel extremely refreshed.

Otherwise, how could they not feel tired or hungry after spending 48 hours in the game?

About this question, these players had privately discussed many details during these two days. The top scholar Raingirl No Melons felt that it should be an extremely advanced mental hypnosis technique. This current mission should also be for the sake of displaying the success of this technique.

However, would this bring harm to the human body? They didn’t know anything at all, because the D-Planet had never announced such technology before. This also meant that they might very well be the experimental subjects.

When they thought of this, fear surfaced in all their hearts.

After all, it was a pretty terrifying experience to be locked up in the game for three days.

They also had no idea what happened to their bodies in the real world. Would they have already collapsed from dehydration?

The more they thought about it, the more frightened they felt. Each of them wanted nothing more than to rush back home. Hence, when they saw the overlord, all of them heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he didn’t forsake them here. After this mission was accomplished, they had to be more careful and report this to the game testing company. The game testers actually didn’t find such a huge BUG when they tested the game? What was the Dawn Gaming Evaluation Company doing exactly?

In truth, this couldn’t be blamed on the game testing company. During these few days, it was unknown how many major companies had been trying to connect to the game for testing, but they all failed to do so. They had no way to gain any information about the great background behind it. The information they knew was roughly the same as the current players...Oh, wait, their knowledge might be even inferior to the current players. Because... for this procurement trip, not a single employee from any of the game testing companies came along.

After seeing that the players were all gathered here, Xiye directly teleported them outside the gate of the Deity University. Those employees he had just hired had waited here since early in the morning.

Seeing that these people all came earlier than the pre-arranged time, Xiye nodded in satisfaction. As expected of children from reputable clans. Their attitudes after obtaining a job were not bad. This was the result of their clans’ education since they were young.

“Wa, who are these people?” The players were curious.

“Oh, so these are our overlord’s subjects?” The titan warrior Zanda surveyed the two green titans, his eyes brightening. He silently mused, “What high-quality green titans!”

Xiye’s green titans actually became a first-grade lifeform despite using the second-grade genes. Although their level was still low, such outstanding characteristics, including the explosiveness of their muscles, had far exceeded the titan warrior’s expectation!

(Most probably, they are nurtured with a huge amount of the overlord’s resources, right?)

Zanda believed it was so.

Just when Zanda was sighing in admiration at the quality of the green titans’ players, the few players were also sighing in admiration at Zanda’s body that was clearly filled with explosive might!

“Damn!” Liver King walked a few rounds around Zanda and spoke, “Will this be how we look like after we level up and evolve? This is too damn handsome!!!”

Let alone those green titan players, even Raingirl No Melons, the Developer, was almost drooling. A height of 6.7 meters, muscles packed with explosive might, and such an aura of power? This would truly cause people to be mesmerized.

The two green titans had faces of excitement when they thought about how imposing they would look in the future. The regret of not being able to become a mecha controller instantly faded away.

The path of pure strength warrior like this was what men like them should pursue! What was the use of having a mecha? No matter how awesome the metal bodies might seem, in the end, the fight between mechas was just between two people pressing controls.

“These are the instructors I hired to train you all. This is a titan warrior, and he will be the warrior chief instructor!” Xiye introduced.

“Oh, oh!” Everyone grew excited. Finally, they were going to come in contact with the combat system!

Damn, they had to be miners for a few months before this content unlocked. The tempo of this game was really extremely slow!

Xiye: “The information of the instructors will be announced on the information board. The time has come, let’s return!”

“Right!” The players hurriedly nodded. At this moment, although they wanted to understand the new gaming content in their hearts, they were more concerned with whether they were still living well in the real world.

————————————-

In a certain school girl’s dorm on the D-Planet, it was currently noon. All of a sudden, a bright light flashed in one of its rooms, and a bespectacled girl with a paralyzed expression sat up.

The features of this girl were easily recognizable. It was none other than Raingirl No Melons.

After returning to the base, the first thing she had done was to hurry to the node and go offline!

She sat up slowly and drew in a deep breath, sensing all parts of her body. However, she realized that things weren’t as bad as she had thought.

Her body didn’t feel any sense of anger or the dizzy, light-headed feeling that came from having not enough rest. On the contrary, she felt extremely refreshed and filled with energy...

Could this be a side-effect of hypnotism?

When she thought of this, she walked out of her virtual gaming cabin toward the mirror in her wardrobe. She wanted to see how bad exactly her condition was through looking at her complexion.

While one’s mental state could be hypnotized, their body condition couldn’t. With just a look, her true condition would be very obvious.

But after she sat down in front of the mirror and looked at her reflection, the girl was stunned.

The reflection she saw was glowing radiantly, with a much better complexion than before. Her eyes were also unprecedentedly bright after she took off her glasses.

What situation was this?

The girl rubbed her eyes and stared at the mirror. She then tapped her face lightly. “Am I still in a dream?”

It must be so. It was definitely the mental hypnotism of the game that caused her brain to temporarily be unable to wake up, resulting in this…

But how should she wake up from her dream? Should she pinch her leg?

(Aiya...so painful!)

“Hey, where did you go during these two days?” Just when she was shocked that she could feel such sensation of pain in a dream, a familiar voice drifted over.

“You didn’t even bring your phone. We tried to call you, but you didn’t pick up!”

The girl glanced toward the direction of the voice. The one that had spoken was her dorm-mate in the dorm. The female dormitories in their school were constructed for a person per bedroom. Her dorm-mate had heard the commotion from her room, and after ascertaining it was none other than her, she immediately started bombarding her with questions.

“I...I have forgotten the time while gaming…” replied the girl, looking embarrassed and confused after verifying the truth. As she spoke, she pointed to the gaming cabin. “I just came out…”

But her dorm-mate had a strange look on her face. “Are you serious? Our school has a power failure that has already lasted for two days. How did you manage to play a game?”

(Whut!?)
