Reality System - Chapter 31 Creation Goings On

After two more hours of hunting he finally found the place he was looking for. Ren saw a big camp full of Paper Golems, there were almost 200 tents in the camp with almost 15 meters separation between each tent. in front of every camp stood a group of Paper Golems consisting of 5 paper golems.

The 200 tents shaped a circle and in the center of the tents there was a big tent as big as a mansion. No one was around the big tent and it’s distance from the other tents was around 35 or 40 meters.

‘The VVIP must be in that tent.’ Ren thought.

‘ This is gonna be hard even for me… after I start attacking the first Paper Golem group I won’t be able to rest even for a second until I kill the 200 groups of Paper Golems. Sigh… it’s gonna a race of focus and time… .’ Ren smiled in a helpless manner.

‘well … whatever. let’s calculate things. after I start attacking the first group, it’s gonna be like a domino effect and the second group’s gonna start running after the second group and come toward me. seeing the second group running towards a target the third group’s gonna follow after and seeing the third the fourth, then the fifth and so on gonna follow and come to me. with the slow speed by which the Paper Golems run I will have about 20 seconds to kill each group which is about the time which I take to kill a group of Paper Golems.’ After putting aside his laziness he became serious and started thinking about the whole process with a lot of focus, thinking and calculation.

Ren knew in the process of fighting the Paper Golems he won’t even have a second to rest or bat an eyelid, he needed to be in absolute focus untill all of them died. So he decided to first relax and let go first then start the slaughter of Paper Golems.

‘let’s go have a cup of tea.’ Ren thought as went offline.

After going offline he saw that no one was home. He went to the kitchen and while making some tea he thought. ‘Dad should be at work, Mom and lil Cassie … hmmm … Mom’s probably gone to Grocery Store for some grocery shopping and she must’ve taken lil sis with her.’

After making a cup of tea he went to the hall and sat on the furniture and turned on TV, Ren changed to the game channel, which these days all they were talking about was ‘CREATION’.

A program called ‘Creation Goings-On’ was being broadcast. This program was hosted by two people, a beautiful female and a handsome male, they were having a conversation about the goings-on in the game.

Ren recognised both of these people as they were famous celebrities in real world, but they were also professional players and their capability of analysis was quite good.

“So Olivia I’m sure you’ve heard of the famous player Syd, what do you think about him? a lot of players of saying he’s a cheater or that he’s working with the game company, saying he’s the favorite son of the heavens.” said the handsome male, his name was Liam.

“well…first of all Liam, we’ve known and worked with each other for years so you should know that I’m someone who tries to have the least bias in my opinions.” Olivia said.

“that’s absolutely true.” Liam said with a smile.

“Hmm… actually at first I thought he WAS cheating as he’s too extraordinary to the point I would say it’s impossible. But this thought of mine was rejected after some delibration and the official statement the game company posted. Because first of all the game company has almost zero control over the game as it’s being control with most powerfull AI on earth that evolves even. some might say that some of the game designers and planners might have revealed the place of some quests, items, hidden classes, etc. but that’s impossible too as the AI modifies all of the game, she for example changes the the quest entirely and just use the quest put by game designors just as a basic inspiration for story that she writes herself, and she definitely places the quests, hidden classes and items in random places so it’s also impossible to reveal where to go. Some might say he’s hacking the game but let’s get real, I’m sure even those who say this thenselves are thinking this thought is ridiculous, as were are talking about the Most powerful AI here, no one knows how but she suddenly evolved by who knows how and startef improving herself at every second. even now as we’re talking she’s improving, some even say if the AI beauty wanted he could’ve conquered the world and don’t think that’s out of her capability too.” Olivia said without any long pause between her sentences.

She drank a sip from the water on the table, then continued “and that’s why I don’t think this player called Syd is cheating nor is he working with the game company.”

“yeah… but why didn’t you say nor is he the favorite son of the heavens?… haha.” Liam asked laughing noticing Olivia who almost never missed details didn’t say a sentence.

“hehe… Liam I knew you would notice… well I’m not sure if he’s the favorite son of the heavens or not. because I’m thinking just MAYBE, and that’s only a maybe, that the AI is helping him herself. but that’s quite out of reach too right? let’s consider this far fetching thought of mine just as joke, haha…” Olivia said laughing out loud.

………………….

Watching the TV Ren grinned. ‘Wow she guessed correctly to some points. but it’s not really correct as it’s not the AI helping me as she just brought the boss to me once and made some changes to the rewards of that quest. ‘

‘the true correct answer is that I’m a reincarnator with memory of the past life and along with a system.’ Ren thought laughing out loud. “hahahahaha…”

……………………

“Olivia you’re getting rusty there was another possibility you missed… that he might be a reincarnator who reincarnated to the past and using his memories of the future to play the game… hahaha” Liam said jokingly while laughing.

“Oh my… haha that’s true. he just might be that.” Olivia answered jokingly too to elevate the mood of the TV.

“…” Ren became speechless with a load of cold sweat dropping from his forehead and face.

“haha… now joking aside. a lot of people believe that he’s breaking the balance of the game. that he should be banned or made slow untill others catch up to him. what do you think about that Olivia?” Liam asked getting serious again.

“Well… Maybe or maybe not. You should consider that there might be other players as powerful or even more powerful than him existing but hiding themselves in the game. as the game gives the option of hiding… and also don’t forget that the AI is there to balance the game. And I’m sure she won’t allow the game to be out of balance.” Olivia answered.

She continued ” and about banning or restricting him, that’s just ridiculous and unfair to that player, as first of all it’s impossible for the company to ban a player with no rhyme or reason as the AI won’t alloe it and also if there is a problem with him the AI would have done it long ago.”

………………………

“I’m quite starting to like this Olivia girl haha… great words. keep up the good work.” Ren said while drinking his tea.

………………………

“I couldn’t agree more with your words Olivia. now let’s change the subject a little. lots of people want to see this player named Syd in real life or on TV as they are curious about who he or she really is, but no one knows who he is yet. why is that?” Liam asked again.

“well… it might be because he hasn’t interacted with any player as he might be a loner who dislikes interacting. but I’m sure his identity in real life is going to be revealed sooner or later as it’s impossible to change your face and looks in the game for security reasons. Some one just needs to see him and take a picture of him and then others will find his in real life soon.” Olivia answered.

………………………..

Ren was shocked at first when he heard this as he was sure he did slightly change his face when he was logging in the game for the first time. he was also shocked at that time as there was no such option like that in his past life but he thought that maybe because of some butterfly effect that might have changed, but it seems this option was only available for him so only one reason for such a change came to his mind, ‘The Reality System’.
