Chereads / MMORPG: Fighting with avatars in another world / Chapter 11 - At the gates of war

Chapter 11 - At the gates of war

Adir returned to his world for a few days to prepare for what was to come. However, he faced several problems.

He had some concepts of races in his possession, but he felt that they were not enough. He called the golden dragon, Feltor, and ordered him to scout the battlefields to gather more concepts as quickly as possible.

Feltor left immediately. A few hours later, he returned with several orbs in his hands. He mentioned to Adir that there were many more Concepts scattered throughout the lands. Wasting no time, Adir summoned the others and gave them the same instructions as Feltor. They all hurried to complete the task.

Meanwhile, Adir began to absorb the concepts that Feltor had brought.

His power felt more abundant than ever. Some concepts were minor, such as fire, time, wisdom, and kindness, while others were race-specific. 

Some, however, proved useless, such as the concept of kindness, which had no effect on its own.

He didn't worry too much. He knew there were many more concepts out there, scattered like garbage. The gods couldn't pick them all up, and the demons and angels couldn't take them without a suitable body. What worried Adir, however, was that the only ones capable of consuming them were the demons flying above him in the heights of the sky.

But he thinks they did not for the same reason he thought some of them were useless. Not all concepts were really useful in battle, he had one called Kindness for example, it had nothing more than an effect that changed his personality a bit and maybe even weakened him.

Adir was a little relieved to think about it this way, at least he had a chance to grab as many as he could now, he wasn't going to waste this golden opportunity he had.

The hours passed and all his children came, bringing him dozens of concepts. As the number of concepts increased, his reserve of divine power increased even more, becoming much stronger.

Some of them were just fragments of the original, like the human, he had a fragment of it, he could only create humans with that fragment, but they would have no consciousness, they would just be machines that couldn't do anything by themselves. For the creation to have consciousness, it should have at least half of the concept itself, but in this world, the gods only have a fragment of a certain concept.

But some gods like Kairos or Anu had more than half, their power was above the others just because they had more than 60 percent.

Adir did not care because he only needed the body, not the mind, because someone else would occupy it.

A few more days passed and Adir was ready, he managed to create several races in his panel, he was happy for the progress.

Feltor told him that the gods also finished their creations, Adir listened attentively, standing up, Adir moved out, followed by Feltor. 

They headed for the others.

Adir arrived at their destination quickly, he did not have to look for them, Torkel, the dwarf god approached him in a hurry and informed him that everything was ready, nodding, Adir ordered them to begin.

Torkel, without wasting a second, gave the signal. Raising his right arm upward, he clenched his fist and infused divine power. The divine power seeped upward in a glowing pillar, all saw them.

With the signal active, everyone else started, a few seconds later, Adir, Feltor and Torkel spotted dazzling pillars in all directions. 

-Sir, the signal was given.

Adir did not answer, he looked at the glaring pillars with a serious face. He was prepared for what was coming next.

Without wasting any time, Adir left, on his way back to the cave to begin the link.

-Feltor, warn Torkel and inform the others that I will create life from the different races of the fallen gods.

-Yes, father," with Feltor's nod, Adir relaxed a little more.

Adir entered the cave, took up his position and lowered his consciousness to the planet Earth.

He communicated with Eira, who informed him about everything and mentioned that the preparations were ready. Adir gave Eira the order to begin.

Eira was already ready. A few days ago, Eira took a private jet to England, directly to Mason's company, and waited patiently.

When Adir arrived, he declared to start, Eira obeyed and went to "Hirion", raised her arm a little, touched the machine and infused divine power, Hirion started to light up for the first time.

Mason, who watched, was satisfied and forgot his fears about Hirion's function.

They had created Hirion as just a device to connect the others, its only purpose being to connect all the other capsules where people would connect to enter Adir's world.

-There are five minutes left until the game starts. I will go to the monitoring room, and observe the new "world".

Mason conjectured that it was the world of his god, although he could never see it, he knows very well from the records left by his ancestors.

And more so when his men only created a machine that can connect all the people in a single server, he suspected that Eira had the favor of God, but said nothing, he was only interested that the method was safe, and as long as it is safe he will follow the wishes of Eira as the first ancestor.

Mason had many privileges too, he made invitations and gave them some of his men to go explore the new world, he also used it to sell it to rich families, the invitations sold like hot cakes.

He even invited content creators to promote the game. Mason had it all planned. 

----------------

Kim Min-Ho, a 25-year-old young man from South Korea, filled in his personal data for a new game, hailed by many as the game of the century. 

He didn't have high expectations, he didn't think he would be selected among the millions of applicants. 

Great was his surprise when he received an email about his acceptance, that day he was happy. 

He turned on his computer and went to the game's website, and commented that he had been selected for the closed beta, the comments he received were all envious.

-[Immortal warrior20]: I was also selected for the closed beta, let's meet inside the game when it starts!

-[Mysterious Adventurer7:] I'm so envious, I wasn't selected, even though I filled out the form and participated in the raffles, I'm dying of envy just knowing that there are people luckier than me!

-[Heart of flame56]: I tried to buy the machine from one of my acquaintances, but he said that it is linked to the user, damn it! Just wait for the next beta, or, for them to make the game official.

Kim Min- ho had to translate the user's comments, he did not understand other languages except his own.

Looking at the time, Kim Min-ho realized that it was two minutes before the game was scheduled to start. Kim Min-ho started to remember everything he did for the sake of the game.

 He was happy that the machine was free. There was another model where it cost 10 million won, but he didn't have that kind of budget to spend, so he was happy that at least the first model was free.

On the official website he saw the administrator's publications, he saw all the races he could use, as well as the death penalty.

The death penalty was very terrible, if you die, you had to start from scratch, this setting did not like thousands of the accepted.

-It is dangerous to die, I will have to play without taking too much risk.

Kim Min-ho took a look at the races and their descriptions on the main page, they were all good, but there were some that were better than others. After much thought, he devised a scheme about the advantages and disadvantages of all of them, coming to the conclusion of which one to select.

He turned on the machine, and went inside. It was comfortable, Kim Min-ho likened it to a good relaxing bath.

As he meditated on the comfort of the machine, the machine began to slowly close from right to left, and once completely sealed, he fell asleep.

His consciousness was transported to the other world. Seconds later, Kim Min-ho saw the status panel, telling her to enter her name.

-Magic warrior, yes, that name is fine... no, Black rose is better, yes, this name exudes charm and elegance, I've decided, Black rose it is!

Kim min-ho typed Black rose as her game name, clicked accept and another panel appeared in her view, but more extensive.

-Here are the races... the time has come for which I have been preparing for days...

Kim min-ho saw more than 15 different races, each one different from the previous one, he selected one to test, and it worked, after pressing the race, sub races of this one came out, he did not press accept, because he was just testing. He didn't want to play with the human race, he didn't see it as fun.

His thought was why play as a human, if I am one? He wanted to explore new lands, and if what it said on the official website was true, he will have all five senses in the selected race, he wanted to see what would happen if he becomes something other than human, so he thought.

In total. There were 17 races, Black rose went down and saw his target, he pressed the figure and selected the giant race, and the rock sub class, he selected stone giant. 

He saw the pros and cons, coming to the conclusion that it was a purely tank race, although there was the dragon race, he realized that it was not very good in the beginning of the game, it needed time for the dragon race to do something. He believes, what if they stay alive at the beginning of the game, the dragon race could grow to be the most powerful. It will only work if they can live, of course, right now it was a difficult race to grow without some guidance from another player.

Black rose didn't want to risk it when they don't know what they are going to face in the game, and the stone giant race had balanced stats towards endurance and strength, making it much safer for Black rose.

Without wasting any time he set up the face and chose the initial equipment, there wasn't much to choose from, being a giant, he was only limited to swords, maces, axes and shields. 

Not thinking too much, he selected a tower shield and a short sword; he wanted as much protection as possible.

He pressed accept and was led out of the waiting room.
