Creating a Virtual World

Chapter 7: The Descendant (Third Update)

Views:

Jiang Qiao came to the relatively spacious living room, took out his mobile phone and opened the latest version of the game app.

This version of the APP is unique to Jiangqiao. Other players' APPs only have a function to log in to the game...

And Jiangqiao’s APP has added a lot of new functions created by the Creator Jiangqiao.

One of the most important functions is the 'Abyss Rift'.

Jiang Qiao clicked on the option of the abyss rift, and a map of Jiangcheng, the city where Jiang Qiao was located, instantly appeared on the map. There was nothing on this map yet.

When the space-time rift of the invasion plane opens on Blue Star and monsters begin to invade the city, the location of the space-time rift will be shown on the map.

This brings us to the core gameplay, Abyss Hunting!

"Hai Lan, open the restrictions on my spirit swooping." Jiang Qiao said.

"It has been opened a long time ago. The world barrier of Blue Star is still very solid. It will consume a lot of energy if you want to summon your character."

Hailan came out of Jiang Qiao's kitchen with a basket of strawberries. She warned Jiang Qiao while eating the strawberries.

"How much energy is needed?" Jiang Qiao glanced at his mobile phone screen.

Below the interface of the Abyss Rift, the only option to summon spirits changed from gray to yellow, indicating that Jiang Qiao could use the option to summon spirits.

"About three hundred points of energy. This energy is enough for me to build a city in my own world." Hai Lan's voice sounded very distressed, but she did not stop stuffing strawberries into her mouth, so her voice sounded a little vague.

Jiang Qiao felt bad for her as he saw her almost finish the big bag of strawberries he just bought, but what Jiang Qiao felt most bad for was...

"Three hundred? Why don't you go and rob? No...why doesn't Lan Xing go and rob!"

Jiang Qiao had experienced the state of the Creator, so he knew what three hundred points of energy could create.

The daily maintenance cost of this game is only fifty energy points, and the biggest part of the maintenance cost is the monsters and equipment that are refreshed every day.

Now there are hundreds of thousands of monsters active on the 240 square kilometer map of the entire world, and each of these monsters consumes only about 0.00001 of energy.

Energy is only consumed in large quantities when creating new monsters, new equipment, and new cities.

"Because your character can use magic! There is no magic on Blue Star! After the invading plane tears down the barriers of rules of this world, it won't take much energy to summon the characters in the game around the space cracks." Hai Lan said.

"So this is a function limited to the rift? Let me try it first, I want to make sure there won't be any problems."

Jiang Qiao sat on the sofa and directly clicked on the option of summoning spirits. Jiang Qiao felt that his consciousness was instantly stripped away. When Jiang Qiao opened his eyes again, he saw "himself" sitting on the sofa.

"Although I was mentally prepared, I actually summoned it..."

Jiang Qiao looked at his hands in disbelief. On his hands were the spiritual gauntlets that the Wild Boar King had exploded.

In order to further confirm, Jiang Qiao came to a floor-to-ceiling mirror in the living room and saw his current appearance clearly... It was the summoner who controlled the Water Spirit and the Fire Spirit to beat up the Wild Boar King in the game before!

The mysterious inscription on the light blue robe emitted a dim light. The face under the hood of the robe was more feminine than Jiang Qiao's real appearance, and his hair was also dark gray.

The game interface still exists in Jiang Qiao's vision, with options such as health, magic points, experience points, backpack, etc. all available, except for the mailbox and some social functions which are greyed out.

At the same time, Jiang Qiao could feel a special force flowing in his body, which was probably the so-called magic power.

Water spirit summons!

A complex spell appeared on Jiang Qiao's left hand. After about five seconds of chanting, a ball of azure liquid gathered beside Jiang Qiao. Two eyes appeared in the liquid floating in the air, staring at Jiang Qiao blankly.

"This feeling is really...refreshing."

Jiang Qiao looked at Shui Ling floating in the air and couldn't help but smile. Shui Ling blew a bubble and showed the same smile as Jiang Qiao.

At this moment Jiang Qiao could feel the vague connection between himself and this elemental creature.

If it was in the game world, Jiang Qiao would not have any feelings, but in the real world he also possessed the magical powers in the game world. This feeling is probably an experience that all players in the world desire to have.

This made Jiang Qiao miss the body of the "Summoner" character very much. Jiang Qiao sat back on the sofa in this posture, sitting together with his body in the real world. He put the staff aside and picked up a bottle of Coke on the table and opened it.

"Three hundred energy points are just enough to stay in the real world for ten minutes." Hai Lan suddenly ran to Jiang Qiao, snatched the bottle of Coke from his hand and said, "If you stay any longer, you may have more than this!"

"I am doing this to continue improving this function. And the strawberries you eat are very expensive."

Jiang Qiao signaled Shui Ling beside him to stretch out her tentacles to snatch back her Coke from Hai Lan. When Hai Lan heard the word strawberry, she felt guilty and had to stuff a few more into her mouth and stopped blaming Jiang Qiao.

"First of all, we have to make it so that the characters in the game cannot touch real objects." Jiang Qiao shook the Coke in his hand but did not drink it. The characters in the game have no sense of taste. After all, they are set as 'spirits', heroes who exist to purify evil creatures.

"Why do you do this?" Hai Lan asked.

"Not all players who control game characters are good people, and it's easy to lose yourself when you suddenly have this kind of power in the real world."

Jiang Qiao waved his hand and summoned another fire spirit, but he quickly took the fire spirit back. If a fire broke out, Jiang Qiao would have no place to live.

Being able to master this kind of powerful force in the real world without having to worry about exposing your identity is enough to make any player turn an MMORPG into a robbery game.

Moreover, many of the player's skills are AOE. If they hurt ordinary people, the impact on public opinion will be very bad.

"It should be possible. Change the character's attack and offensive skills so that only monsters that invade the plane can touch them. But do we also need to modify the healing skills in the same way?" Hai Lan asked as she put the basket of empty strawberries on the table.

"Can it be effective in treatment?" Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiao instantly realized the impact this game would have on modern society.

In the future, we may enter an era where everyone cultivates immortality... but not everyone levels up.

"Well, but don't think that the resurrection technique will work on the people in this world. I don't have enough energy to modify the reincarnation rules of the Blue Planet now, but it may work on fragments of other worlds." Hai Lan said.

"Normal treatment is enough! There is no need to modify the treatment effects! And when players want to use their own game characters to save people... this requires a complex judgment system. I'd better just modify it with the Creator state."

Jiang Qiao discussed that he had ended this spiritual sedition. When Jiang Qiao's consciousness returned to his original body, the summoner beside him had disappeared, and the water spirit turned into a pool of ordinary water and fell to the ground.
