Chapter 15: Star World

Looking at the repetitive slow motion on the big screen in front of them, as well as Steven's life characteristics that have stopped, three players from the narrow universe Earth sat in their respective positions, their faces glazed as if they had been pulled out of their souls.

For a long time, these players, who consider themselves to be from a higher civilization, have a natural sense of superiority over the natives of the Order Star who have just entered the first industrial revolution. Although there is a unique magical civilization here, there is a very, very big gap with the technological space-level civilization that players have mastered.

After they crash-landed on the planet, they quickly mastered the magic of the planet and surpassed it in some fields with the help of a damaged scientific research spaceship. They created magical potential activation potions, founded the Scarab Company, and gradually became a national business group with a monopoly advantage.

The more they know about this planet, the more they perceive it as non-threatening, and after the Earth Interstellar Federation builds the wormhole station to a nearby star field, the real Scarab Company that players work for will turn this newly discovered planet into a colony of the company.

And after the unique magical civilization of Order Star is integrated into the space-level technological civilization, it will greatly promote the enhancement of the strength of the Scarab Company.

"Prepare for the arrival of the company's fleet!" It was an order from the Scarab Corporation to the surviving players through interstellar broadcasting.

The pre-work done by these players will determine what kind of rewards they will receive after the company officially turns Order Star into a Colony Star.

However, when players think they have everything in control and that the Federation's wormhole station is about to be added to the Federation's map, they find that they are not the superpower on the planet.

The sudden appearance of the Black Fire Company took out a magical potential activation potion, mastered the transcendent human genetic modification technology to a certain extent, and showed a strong hostility towards the Scarab Company.

Right now...... The Tier 14 Extraordinary Force developed by the players was killed by an unknown combatant of the opponent in one blow under the protection of the individual combat armor developed by the Scarab Company. Moreover, the opponent's combat body obviously uses miniature wormhole teleportation technology, which is definitely a super cutting-edge technology.

The Scarab Company's power in Order Star simply does not have the ability to counterbalance this technology.

What is the background of this black fire company? How come you've never heard of this company before?

Could it be that they have trapped the planet of Order for decades, a newly rising company within the Star Alliance?

The Scarab Corporation has encountered significant challenges in the progress of the colonization of the Star of Order. The unique civilization system and biological system of the Order Star, after it is presented under the noses of the Interstellar Alliance, is definitely a resource star coveted by all super powers. The Scarab Company has already assembled a powerful fleet to preemptively occupy the Order Star, and as soon as the Federation's wormhole station connects here, it will immediately take up the armed occupation and declare the ownership of this new life planet, and completely seal the Order Star.

And at this moment, if another interstellar corporation is involved in the battle for Order Star...... An interstellar war will definitely expose the value of the Order Star, which will lead to a larger-scale battle for resource stars.

The three players are not qualified to make decisions on the strategic direction of the company in this situation, and they can only report the situation here to the head office and wait for a reply.

"We need to send someone offline......"

The proposal was made by an old man, and his tone was very heavy. This means that one person will leave this place forever, and the remaining two will continue to carry out the company's orders even more alone. And the one who leaves...... It is estimated that they will not reconnect into this real game world, they are very old, and the company may not spend resources on worthless people.

"I'll go back......," replied the other old man, "neither you nor Eliza have children in our world, and I ...... In order for my children to have a better life, I chose to join the high-paying unknown star field expedition.

I want to see him before I die......"

Eliza, the only woman among the three, said, "I agreed to take Kirk offline, and I don't want to go back to that world where I don't miss anything anyway." What do you think...... Needham? ”

Needham, the leader of the trio, told Kirk, "Tell the head office what's going on here." Then there's the progress of our research into the supernatural genes, and the magic...... The last time we received the company's interstellar broadcast, the last time we sent someone offline to take away the magic practice method, the company sent someone to learn it and did not succeed.

Something must have gone wrong.

There was already skepticism in the company's tone, after all, the company had no way to directly observe the Order Star, and all they knew about this place came from the dictation of our downline personnel. The company's top brass will certainly be skeptical...... We made up a planet that didn't exist in order to earn the treatment of the company.

You have to make the situation clear to the company. ”

Kirk stood up and said, "I see...... For my own sake, I will also prove to the company that we are not lying. ”

As a time-traveling real game, Star World is very different from traditional games in terms of online and offline.

Earth players entering the Star World must have a functioning life support pod to protect their real body while their minds enter the game. Upon entering the game, the player will be born with a lowest-level body at the beginning of the planet.

Players can then engage in a variety of jobs to earn Federated Coins.

Federation coins can be exchanged for currency on Earth in the currency market, and can also be used to modify and strengthen the body, buy equipment, or be used for daily consumption in the star world.

Players are not able to leave the star world by casually cutting off the connection.

Since the player's body in the Star World is real, casual disconnection will result in direct physical death. Therefore, if players want to go offline, the safest way is to enter the cryogenic hibernation pod first, and then pull their minds back into the body of the Earth life support pod.

However, the cryogenic hibernation and life support system of the Needham scientific research spacecraft was damaged during the forced landing, so their offline became a one-way trip, and they could not come back after leaving.

In addition, they can only receive interstellar broadcasts from the company, and the spacecraft's communication system cannot reach the power to transmit information backwards, so if they want to tell the company something, they must go offline and let the mind return to Earth for direct reporting.

In the past few decades of exploration of the Order Star, some players have encountered accidental deaths here, and some players have taken the initiative to report the situation here to the head office.

One after another, there were twenty-seven players on a scientific research ship, and now there were only three of them left.

When Kirk was gone, Needham and Eliza were left.
