Chereads / Deus Machina / Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Machina was floating in space while very occupied on his phone, Anonymous sent about 5 game designs to him, in which everything looked cool, except that most of them are not applicable since Machina's galaxy... well...

Let's not talk about that, one was about Swords and Magic, Machina can't apply that because he can't do magic and there is no inhabitable planet he could place the players, creating a game, Machina didn't just need to create a game character and place them.

It was not really considered a game but more like transmigration since Machina will take their consciousness and place them unto an avatar he created, that is what he had talked with Anonymous earlier, they said it was called Virtual Reality in which a term Machina had heard before.

Machina checked the other game designs, and only one was applicable for his Galaxy, spaceship, sabers, energy field, mecha, sci-fi, Machina read its content and could not help but feel it was some kind of reference after Star Battle and Haylo, which were works from Machina's past life.

"Hmm, I will use this then" Machina chose the only applicable design, then started his planning, to create these things, Machina needed to spend his Divine Energy which doesn't get refilled, it can only get refilled if a God Followers worship him, if put in statistics, 1 prayer of the follower is equal to 1 Divine Energy.

Machina was in a stump, he can't really carelessly expend his Divine Energy, looking around his galaxy, Machina saw a huge monster like octopus swimming in the space, monsters... experience...

"That's it!" Machina had an idea, just like how every other game works, slaying monsters, quests, and other things, Machina could adjust these things, for example, offering God's something is a form of prayer, and players who hunt monsters for experience, Machina could just take 60% of the monster and convert it to divine energy and 20 percent of it will be turned to the player's experience, as for the 10 percent it will be the monster drop.

"I'm such a genius!" Machina could not help but cheer, so the first thing he did, was creating the system of the players. he used his divine energy and created a huge spaceship, he made it the biggest one he could make.

3,150 meters big, as for its appearance, Machina decided to take one from google since he had already connected to the internet using his powers, and found a good design, he made it color white and made it look sci-fi as much as possible.

Machina spent a huge amount of Divine Energy materializing the spaceship in which took him a few hours to finish since Machina wanted to make it detailed as possible, while he was at it too, he also made other items for the game.

Such as the Small Space Ship which was needed to gather resources, weapons like a lightsaber, laser gun, and took more from the internet, as for the copyrights? Machina doesn't care, Gods don't follow rules made by mortals, those are the problems of Anonymous.

"Being a God is much better than I thought" Machina chuckled as he looked at the final creation in front of him. with this spaceship, it will be no problem taking about hundreds of thousands of players, its appearance was referenced after a ship called Droid Control Ship.

"Well now that is done, it really drained me out" Machina sighed, he only has about 10%of his original divine energy left, "it's enough to create about 500 player avatars with some to spare" Machina calculated.

"Well then, let's start" Machina waved his hand and a floating blue screen appeared in front of him, the character he had in mind was not a human, but a humanoid cyborg that he will call 'Spartans', body made of armor, Machina also made sure that the players could customize their characters, though doesn't change the fact that they are robots.

"Well, that is done, everything left is to wait for the anonymous" Machina said as he decided to rest for his remaining time.

-Planet Earth, December 10 Year 20XX-

"Hey, have you heard? the one on the internet! I'm so excited!"

"You're talking about the Virtual Reality Game? don't we already have that?"

"No dude, this is different, the virtual reality we have is not even considered virtual reality, the one I'm talking about is the 100% realism!"

"Ah! I have heard about that! I'm also excited!"

A certain rumor has been circulating on the internet lately, making every hardcore gamer restless, The company called Anonymous has announced that they have finally created a perfect immersive Virtual Reality game.

This not only caused an uproar on the gamers but to the news too, this was a huge step for the technological development of humanity, after all, Virtual Reality has too many uses, it was especially for the government, but the company Anonymous was a neutral company that can't be touched by any countries.

The only thing they could do now was to give up and study upcoming virtual reality games, but one more piece of news shocked the whole world that we're excited about the incoming game.

[The Virtual Reality Game: Deus Machina will only choose 500 players for the open beta]

500 players! it may seem a lot but earth has about 8 billion population and with about 3 to 4 billion gamers worldwide, this is but a drop of water, this caused dissatisfaction for the gamers but they couldn't do anything, they could only wish to be one of the 500 players chosen.

This news was much more devastating for the country's governments.

"Damn them! they are doing this to provoke us!"

"Calm down, its not like we can do anything"

"So what do we do!?"

"Nothing... let's just hope that this virtual reality si not as we hope for, or... hah, if its real, then we could only look for the chosen players and let them work for the government"

The influence of Virtual reality has more impact than they thought it would be.
