Summoning Players into My Game-Chapter 526 - 305: Target—New Continent (Part 3)
If they can uncover the cause, they’ll be able to compete with Sky Traveler for the BOSS and opportunities; otherwise, they’ll end up with nothing and face pointless deaths and level drops.
In an instant, the entire War God Alliance was mobilized under Zhantian Banbu’s orders, frantically gathering information about Yiye Fuyun and Ye Qinglu, sparing no effort inside or outside Eternal Immortal Path.
Half a day later.
In a primeval forest on Blue Star, a hundred meters underground in a bunker.
The door of a Virtual Game Pod slowly opened, and a blind, strong man stepped out; this man was none other than Azure Sea and Heaven, who had just logged off.
As Azure Sea and Heaven emerged, the alloy door of the room also slowly opened, and two men walked in.
One of them was dressed in a suit, appearing in his early forties, with multiple scars on his face and neck, giving him an exceptionally stern demeanor.
The other man wore a black, tight-fitting athletic outfit, appeared to be around twenty-five or twenty-six, yet his clothes bore several heavy metal strips exceeding a hundred kilograms. However, his movements were unaffected, as if those weighted strips were merely decorative.
With unfocused eyes, Azure Sea and Heaven looked at the two approaching, as if seeing through their thoughts, and said, "You’re here. It seems like I interrupted your Starry Sky Mecha training."
"The Starry Sky Mecha training is a minor matter. We’ve coordinated to kill countless monsters on that planet, so missing one training isn’t an issue," the man in the suit dismissed it indifferently. "Tell me, young master of the consortium, what do you need us for?"
"I need you to investigate a game, one that’s still in beta," Azure Sea and Heaven said with a smile. "The game is called Descent of High Martial. We want you to thoroughly investigate the game’s background and everything within it."
"Why investigate a beta game? Aren’t you concerned with Eternal Immortal Path anymore?" the man in the suit asked in surprise.
"The game is somewhat special, so I want to check it out," Azure Sea and Heaven thought of Ye Qinglu, recalling her spiritual control skills demonstrated in Eternal Immortal Path, and a faint smile appeared on his face. "If it’s really as my deputy leader described, and there’s no issue, it could be a new frontier."
"Young Master, why involve me?" questioned the young man in the tight athletic outfit. "I don’t play games much; I’m only familiar with real combat and controlling the Starry Sky series mechas."
"Xing Kuang, precisely because you’re skilled in these areas, I’m asking you to enter the game for investigation," Azure Sea and Heaven said with a smile at the young man known as Xing Kuang. "I’ve heard that the game has highly researched mental aspects, and it might help players enhance their mental capacities, which is crucial for you to improve in Starry Sky Mecha control."
Xing Kuang, his confidant nurtured since youth, though not much of a gamer, had extraordinary mental abilities and terrifying potential, even beyond Ye Qinglu’s. Consequently, he became a renowned ace pilot at a young age.
"I understand," Xing Kuang nodded.
"By the way, take the entire Mechanical Legion with you; the more, the better for investigation," Azure Sea and Heaven instructed.
"The entire Mechanical Legion?" Xing Kuang was taken aback. "Young Master, that’s a legion of a hundred thousand!"
The consortium’s Starry Sky Mecha Corps was comprised of elite, battle-hardened soldiers. Sending some to play games was one thing, but if all hundred thousand were to go, they could easily conquer a game. After all, the virtual games’ realism improved, and personal skills increasingly depended on real-life abilities.
To deploy their hundred thousand experts was no mere investigation; it was akin to conquering the game. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
"Off you go," Azure Sea and Heaven waved them away, lying back into the Virtual Game Pod.
The two left Azure Sea and Heaven’s resting room, each following his instructions: one to investigate Descent of High Martial’s background and underlying forces, while the other led people into the game to survey its in-game situation.
High Martial World, Red Moon Town.
The clock struck noon the next day, marking the end of a thirty-two-hour update. Immediately, Red Moon Town’s branch welcomed its first wave of newcomers, numbering in the thousands.
