Chapter 65: Chapter 61: The Tower Defense of Ten Thousand Realms Player List Is About to Be Exposed

Sky Control gave Shen Fei a Tower Master skill.

Shen Fei was familiar with this Skill Book. Previously, to farm Gemstones, he had taken Sky Control to mindlessly grind the Heaven-Reaching Tower and run Secret Realms. Aside from obtaining a large quantity of Gemstones and synthesizing them all to level nine, he had also obtained something else: the special Tower Master skill, Tenfold Amplification.

According to its description, the Tenfold Amplification skill could not only boost an attribute—such as Attack Power, range, attack speed, or health—tenfold. More importantly, it could also temporarily increase the quantity of a specific Defense Tower by ten times. This was an incredibly powerful Tower Master skill.

Unfortunately, in the game, a Tower Master’s skills couldn’t be reset. When he finally obtained this powerful skill, his skill slots were already full, and he couldn’t learn it. As a result, he had temporarily stored the Skill Book with Sky Control.

Now, as the game ability inheritance began, Sky Control returned the Skill Book to Shen Fei. He understood that once the game ability inheritance reached its later stages, he could inherit this Skill Book into reality when he chose to inherit items from the "Other" category. Moreover, once he could continue to level up and improve in the real world, he would finally have the chance to learn the Tenfold Amplification skill...

Good stuff! If this Tenfold Amplification also gets boosted by over nineteen hundred times during the final settlement because of the amount of Krypton Gold I spent... wouldn’t that become a ten-thousand-fold amplification! Wouldn’t that make me Invincible!

A guess flashed through Shen Fei’s mind as he looked at the skill’s description. However, he would have to wait until the end to see if this guess would come true. This kind of "miscellaneous item" from his game inventory would definitely be in the last category he inherited. In the early stages, he would naturally prioritize inheriting things that could rapidly increase his Combat Power...

"Alright, let’s do this!" Shen Fei declared. "Since I can’t sleep anyway, I might as well grind Secret Realms and the Heaven-Reaching Tower! Who knows, the game servers might be destroyed in a few days, and then I won’t be able to play at all!"

After stashing away the ultra-powerful Skill Book, Tenfold Amplification, that Sky Control had been holding for him, Shen Fei gave a grand wave of his hand and started running dungeons with Sky Control again.

Huh? Don’t tell me this guy is gaining sentience too!

Before leaving the Crystal, Shen Fei looked down and saw the giant Black Tortoise carrying the Floating City on its back. He noticed a nimble light flickering in its pitch-black eyes. He had a feeling that as time went on, this max-level, one-of-a-kind Tower-Carrying Beast might also evolve beyond his expectations...

In his previous life, the inheritance had ended abruptly after only two rounds. This life, all inheritance categories were full. Shen Fei had no idea what the Black Tortoise would become after it was finally inherited, but from the looks of it, it was bound to be badass...

RUMBLE. RUMBLE. RUMBLE.

In the distance, the roaring from downtown Qing City showed no signs of quieting. In the darkness, the Shen Family’s villa lay hidden in the mist while Shen Fei remained busy in the game.

In the room next to his, his sister, Shen Yue, was chatting with her best friend, who had inherited a "freakish" game ability.

Meanwhile, Father Shen and Mrs. Shen weren’t asleep either. The two were marveling at their inherited abilities while also using various chat groups for seniors to gather a large amount of information, both useful and useless...

"Our son’s really grown up! He was so decisive and resolute when he handled that business with Old Yi just now!" Father Shen said slowly to his wife, toying with the golden Horse chess piece in his hand.

Earlier, Father Shen had brought Uncle Yi into their villa. On one hand, he wanted to show off in front of his "old friend" and brag about the powerful game ability he’d inherited. On the other hand, he also wanted to use the authority of his inherited ability to pry some information out of Old Yi. He had noticed Uncle Yi’s strange behavior in the days leading up to the game inheritance and could already tell that Old Yi was hiding something related to him. What Father Shen hadn’t expected was that, through a series of coincidences, his son had ended up resolutely driving Old Yi away...

"Of course he is! He’s my son, after all! Our son is amazing!!" Mrs. Shen chimed in. Through the internet and her social media groups, she could see the miserable situations other people were in. But thanks to her son’s arrangements, even though her family had gone through a few heart-pounding moments, they had ultimately come out of it all scared but unscathed. Mrs. Shen was very proud of this. She didn’t really care about inheriting game abilities or anything. Her family’s safety was her greatest wish.

"I regret trying to stop our son from playing games...," Father Shen suddenly said with a hint of regret.

Mrs. Shen: "..."

...

On the third floor of the Shen Family’s villa, Uncle Sun and his son were, of course, also wide awake.

Although Uncle Sun had given his Soldier Chess Pieces to Shen Fei and Sun Yu, his night had been far too eventful. He had watched Shen Fei instantly kill Godzilla at the airport, flown through the sky on a Golden Celestial Horse, and even seen someone paralyze people just by poking them with a bamboo pole... With all these things happening one after another, Uncle Sun lay in bed with his eyes wide open, not feeling the least bit sleepy.

In the room next door, Sun Yu was naturally wide awake as well. He was also in the "Skyrocketing" fan QQ group. Of course, he saw the flood of messages praising his Big Bro. He also saw on the forum that many people were lamenting the death of the "two-billion Krypton Gold whale."

Sun Yu felt a powerful urge to chime in. He desperately wanted to show off in the threads and let everyone know that his Big Bro wasn’t dead! But remembering what his Big Bro had told him, he suppressed the urge.

Still, it’s pretty satisfying to watch them imagine how powerful Big Bro would be if he were still alive... Sun Yu thought to himself as he browsed the various forums...

...

Tonight was a sleepless night.

In the distant Divine Capital of Xia Country, another family was also awake: Huang Yi, owner of the "Taiyi Zhenren" account, and his younger sister-in-law, Bai Tongtong.

"Brother-in-law, what do we do?" Bai Tongtong asked again from inside a lavishly decorated office.

Over an hour ago, Huang Yi had instantly killed President Chen, who had turned into a Demon Beast, and had summoned a massive Defense Tower. Because of this, both Huang Yi and Bai Tongtong had been "invited" to this room by people claiming to be from the "Tourism Management Office."

Through the conference room window, Huang Yi could still see his Divine Thunder Tower a few hundred meters away. He had placed it there, unable to move it, and it was now being guarded by security officers.

"We wait," Huang Yi said, patting his sister-in-law’s hand reassuringly. "Listen to the noise outside. It’s total chaos..."

On his phone, Huang Yi had already learned that the world had descended into chaos. Sitting quietly, he mulled over his earlier conversation with the staff from the Tourism Management Office.

’Mr. Huang, our Tourism Management Office was formed on an emergency basis. We’re a new agency dedicated to handling all affairs related to the game’s arrival. Our predecessor was the Emergency Affairs Management Bureau, so we operate with extremely high authority! I sincerely invite you to join us, Mr. Huang! Our agency has just been formed. The sooner you join, the more opportunities you’ll have! As a state organization, we obtained special items exclusive to the nation when the inheritance began. If you join us, we can allow you to view this special National Treasure Divine Artifact... Based on the intelligence we’ve gathered, your inherited abilities are from a tower defense game! We understand that in tower defense games, while the Defense Towers are powerful, the Tower Master himself is extremely vulnerable. But if you join our Tourism Management Office, we can guarantee your personal safety! Furthermore, our agency will also research the abilities inherited by your sister-in-law, Ms. Bai Tongtong. Personnel of the Tourism Management Office will have priority access to the results of that research...’ 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Listening to the distant clamor, Huang Yi thought quietly, trying to make a decision. He had originally come to the Divine Capital on a business trip to save his leather factory from bankruptcy, but he never expected to run into something like this. Besides, the people from the Tourism Management Office had already told him that his leather factory in Wenzhou had been smashed into ruins by a giant Sea Beast that emerged from the game.

His factory was gone, and the only family he had left was his sister-in-law beside him. Huang Yi wasn’t entirely against the idea of staying in the Divine Capital and joining an official organization. With the apocalypse descending, his own body was currently very vulnerable, and seeking refuge with an official organization was a viable option. Besides, the deputy director of the Tourism Management Office had mentioned that every country had also inherited special items, which filled Huang Yi with curiosity...

"Apologies! My apologies! Mr. Huang, tonight has been absolute chaos, just chaos!"

Just as Huang Yi was frowning in thought, the conference room door was pushed open. A bald, red-eyed man holding a stack of documents hurried in, apologizing as he came.

"Mr. Huang, that list of top spenders for the game *Tower Defense of Ten Thousand Realms* you mentioned—I’ve made inquiries. The Emergency Affairs Security Bureau does, in fact, have that list. I’ve already sent someone to retrieve it! They compiled a list of the top spenders yesterday when that voice announced the inheritance!"
