Jiang Qiao woke up from the state of the Creator. The familiar living room was still in front of him, but Hai Lan's food had changed from strawberries to cucumbers.
"..." Jiang Qiao looked at the girl gnawing on a cucumber like a groundhog, and opened his mouth but still couldn't say anything.
Hai Lan, the Creator, has just arrived on Blue Star not long ago, so it is normal for him to want to try the local specialties of Blue Star.
"I have made the changes. Players in the spirit state cannot cause damage to anything on the Blue Planet. There is also a judgment system that will allow them to contact the creations of the real world for a short period of time when they have the intention to save people. In short, there will be no friendly fire. All that remains is to wait for the arrival of the invading plane in nine days."
Jiang Qiao took another look at the interface of his phone. The option to summon spirits had turned gray. Any player could only activate the function of summoning spirits when an abyss rift appeared.
"What are your plans for this world?" Hai Lan finished eating the cucumber in her hand and burped without any ladylike manners. "Should we inform the national forces in this world of the news of the invasion of the plane first?"
Jiang Qiao looked at the TV in the living room. Hai Lan had already turned on the TV in the living room with ease. The program playing on TV was the news.
"How can I tell you? If you say the end of the world is coming, why don't you play Holy Spirit with me if you are my brother? I am afraid someone will come to my door and kill me."
Jiang Qiao has no such plan for the time being. Although several of Jiang Qiao's family members work in the government, Jiang Qiao knows that there is only one possibility if he tells his family members who work in the government about this matter.
First he was taken to a mental hospital for testing, then he was invited for tea after the invasion of the plane nine days later.
Jiang Qiao has a way to make those people above him believe, but...
"I don't want this game to go bad," Jiang Qiao said.
"Deteriorate? The world I created has an infinite shelf life! Unless..." Hai Lan suddenly couldn't continue.
"Unless it explodes again?"
Jiang Qiao mercilessly stabbed the failed goddess of creation. This time it was Hai Lan's turn to open her mouth and not know how to answer. She had no choice but to pick up another cucumber and start eating it angrily.
"This game will change the lifestyle of everyone in this world in the future." Jiang Qiao did not embarrass Hai Lan anymore, but talked to Hai Lan about future plans. "Being able to summon the game world into reality means that everyone will play this game and want to make their game characters stronger."
"Isn't this great? This planet has a population of four billion! If they all become our warriors, there is no plane on the star map that we can't handle?" Hai Lan's cheeks were puffy. She didn't realize that talking while eating was a bad habit.
"Human beings are not that simple. The government will definitely find a way to use the game characters as a fighting force like the army. Even the players may be forcibly conscripted by the state." Jiang Qiao said, "This will deprive gamers of their freedom and fun."
"Go on." Hai Lan finished eating the cucumber and started eating the carrot. The expression on her face said "You said I can understand".
"So I took various measures to protect the players' identities in reality." Jiang Qiao didn't care whether Hai Lan could understand or not, and directly took out his mobile phone. "First of all, if players want to participate in the Abyss Rift activities in the real world, they don't need to come to the scene. They just need to locate the location of the Abyss Rift on their mobile phone map to summon the game character."
"But it's not that easy to hide your identity, right? Don't the players you mentioned have friends in the real world?" Hai Lan really understood.
"So this protection measure is only temporary. The best way is to let as many people as possible become players, but it is difficult to achieve this at this stage, so we have to use this method as a transition."
Jiang Qiao was also helpless. The current server could only accommodate one thousand players. If he wanted to expand the server's player limit, he had to devour other worlds.
But Jiang Qiao believes that it will be able to expand to the "open beta" in the future, which means that there will be no need to limit the number of players logging in.
"And I have one last resort. I will let the participants have a small dream during the first plane invasion."
Jiang Qiao explained what he could do in Creator Mode.
"This... requires a lot of energy." Hai Lan certainly understood what the so-called dream was. It was to make the participants think that all this was just happening in the game.
"It doesn't matter." Jiang Qiao said, "The rest is about my personal plan."
"I'm listening." Hai Lan continued to listen to Jiang Qiao's plan.
"This is only necessary in the early stages when there are fewer players. It will be unnecessary when there are more players. I can build something like an inner world to serve as a battlefield. At this stage, I should focus on making a fortune in silence." Jiang Qiao said.
"The other world? I think I understand a little bit, but as long as you don't reveal your identity, I can accept it."
Hai Lan absolutely does not support Jiang Qiao exposing his identity as the creator. She does not trust any human being in this world except Jiang Qiao, whose soul is bound to her.
At first, Hai Lan was still somewhat disgusted with Jiang Qiao, but after Jiang Qiao in Creator Mode trained her into obedience, Hai Lan decided to live in harmony with this host.
"What about you? What are your plans for the future?" Jiang Qiao looked at the goddess who never kept her mouth shut. Jiang Qiao knew nothing about Hai Lan's existence or her past.
"Me?" Hai Lan said this, biting the carrot in her hand viciously and then said, "I want to eat the world around me!"
"Isn't there only one plane invading the Blue Planet in the surrounding world?" Jiang Qiao watched the news on TV. "The end of the world is really coming, but fortunately the heroes are here too."
