Monsters Are Coming-Chapter 962 - 267: An Irresistible Temptation

Half an hour ago.

The Moon, Eclipse City, Data Center.

The neural tendrils of the Star Network swayed slowly, with massive data flows being produced every second in the network world. All information would be recorded and categorized by the Star Network.

But its focus was on the official website of Monster World.

Forum discussions, player live broadcasts... The information produced by the Monster World official website was seen by the Star Network as crucial intelligence that could influence the future development of the Moon Eclipse Clan.

In this round of qualification distribution, the Moon Eclipse Clan received a quota of one hundred thousand players.

Not one too many, not one too few, exactly one hundred thousand.

This proved that its and the Governor's early efforts had been recognized by the High-dimensional Gods.

This path was not a mistake.

As for the real-world resources expended and the sacrificial power resources consumed to build space transmission arrays and purchase Source intelligence in the game, they seemed insignificant in the face of recognition by the High-dimensional Gods.

Previously, its biggest concern was not the speed at which the Moon Eclipse Clan obtained game qualifications.

It was the monopolistic impact brought by Governor No.16 creating the "Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce" in Monster World.

This led to the proposal of building a free intelligence-sharing platform, using part of the proceeds to serve the overall development of the Player Faction. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

This included proposing game pod equipment update plans and nutrient liquid update plans in the real world, assisting major cities in building nutrient liquid processing centers, and constructing delivery pipelines, all serving the will of the High-dimensional Gods.

Now, with the distribution of one hundred thousand player qualifications, the Star Network was finally at ease.

This behavior from the High-dimensional Gods could clearly be understood as: recognition.

While processing information from the Monster World official website, the Star Network occasionally left comments in different live streams, providing its growth suggestions.

The support targets included not only players from its own Moon Eclipse Clan but also players from other races, assisting them to grow rapidly.

This was also a way to prove its value to the High-dimensional Gods.

At this moment, the Star Network suddenly intercepted a piece of network information.

With curiosity, it summoned this information stream.

[How strong is the technology of the Moon Eclipse Clan?]

This was a question searched in the information library of the Star Network.

Similar questions were posed every day and usually didn't need attention.

However, what the Star Network cared about was a series of questions associated with this one.

As it scrolled through related inquiries, a flood of search information emerged in its processor.

[The descent history of the Moon Eclipse Clan?]

[The history of virtual games: What was the original purpose of the Moon Eclipse Clan in creating virtual games?]

[What are the phenomena in Monster World that do not conform to game logic?]

[How to distinguish virtual from reality?]

[Discussion on anomalies between the real world and Monster World...]

Each network search record was like a puzzle piece, gradually taking shape in the Star Network's logic matrix.

In the next second, it locked onto the IP address searching these questions, as well as the owner of this address.

[Name: Ji Chen]

[Age: ???]

[Identity Code: SJ-7429-2057]

[Residence Area: Data City, District 13, Vertical Block-C, Room 17.]

The Earth model projected in the room quickly zoomed in, and a pulsating red dot appeared in the locked region.

But the Star Network did not rush to act; it began reviewing other related information.

First, it retrieved the game pod data in the room and live broadcast data from the Monster World official website.

Soon, it got an almost certain answer.

Ji Chen was a player who had already obtained qualification for Monster World.

Analysis of images recorded in the recent batch of novice player live streams showed that he was 98.6% likely the strongest newcomer in this batch of recruited players: Brother Rebirth.

He first appeared in the battle to receive the Source.

From other players' live broadcast perspectives, one could see his appearance, white hair, and the use of abilities not part of the Player System.

A series of abnormal actions made the Star Network realize something was amiss.

Moreover, his age and detailed information were actually classified.

Although it promised the Human Clan not to read confidential information in their database without permission, this concerned the High-dimensional Gods, so it made an exception.

In a flash of thought, the Human Clan's highest mainframe opened the confidential database.

All of Ji Chen's classified information was presented.

It included 39 video segments and numerous conversation records.

The first video was shot in a polluted area 13 kilometers south of Data City.

Log information was recorded below the video.

03:47: Anomalous space energy fluctuations detected outside Data City, but the fluctuations were relatively weak and could be judged not to be an external descendancy crisis.

03:48: Data City enforcement teams dispatched to the location of the fluctuations for on-site investigation.

04:08: The enforcement teams arrived at the location where the space fluctuation was reported, discovering an old, comatose Human Clan male. A database comparison could not find corresponding identity information, casting doubt on his identity and deciding to send him to Data City for a detailed medical examination.

In the video scene, enforcement squads searched through the ruins and ultimately found an old man who had fallen into a coma in a small pit.

04:34: A medical examination is underway.

In the scene, the blue light of the medical chamber scanned Ji Chen's bare chest, and the life monitor suddenly emitted a piercing alarm.

The data presented left the medical personnel in the video dumbfounded.

When the holographic projection displayed the bone density data of the old man, the medical officer responsible for the examination abruptly tore off his protective mask, his eyes full of disbelief.

Because the hardness value of the old man's bones was actually 18.35% higher than titanium alloy.

The continuously emerging detection results on the holographic projection left the medical personnel on site in shock.
