The world turned into chaos as soon as the news announced the players trapped inside the game. According to their resources, players who were inside Code can never log off. And if they did, the machine crashes by itself and would send electrifying shocks to the brain.
The shockwave killed millions of people already within hours of receiving the new update. A mysterious quest was behind this occurrence. It mentioned that the players must stop the war from happening so that they can escape from Code. As long as the war continued, these adventurers would stay inside the game until accomplishing the mission.
In the news reports, they showed the numbers of people dying inside their homes. They also found some people dead in cafes and on the streets while playing the game inside their rooms. It was right after cutting off the source of electricity or the cord, which eventually led them to a heart attack, stroke, brain damage, and severe and unknown dyspnea.
