SSS rank Mother-In-Law to an Invincible Family - Chapter 42

Chapter 42: Game Launch 2
He was on that list along with Liu Anwei, who also chose to be a swordswoman like him.

As for Liu Meiying, she chose a special route called a Fan cultivator, which uses folding fans as their main weapon. This is a rare type of long-range combat style as there are not many manuals for this weapon.

However, due to her mainly managing her Chamber of Commerce, she did not pay much attention to what type of combat style she had.

Getting back to the topic, the game is styled like this because the World’s Will does not want to bring out the game world as soon as the game starts, as it still needs to bring in the souls of the dead from this world into the game.

As there are not enough humans to completely populate the new world, which is much bigger than the current one, the introduction of spiritual energy affects the world as a whole, including all living creatures.

This is the reason for the three-day time period of when the change happens, as this is a special situation compared to other Worlds.

This is because this world is in the direct path of a Zerg world, which caused this World’s Will to awaken before it was supposed to. Although it is still a new world, they are much more powerful than the people and weapons that are available.

This is the reason for the rush, or else, from what Xu Qianghua remembers from history books of other races, the world will slowly start to release spiritual energy over a few decades while at the same time installing ways to use this energy in the memories of some geniuses.

But with the impending crisis, the World’s Will did not have many options to ensure that its world would be able to deal with the Zerg world.

And if you’re wondering why we could not change the World’s trajectory, that is because the World’s Will of the Zerg world is subconsciously moving towards this world as the Zerg corrupts it.

And this happens to all the worlds that the Zerg come into contact with unless the inhabitants of the world defeat them.

‘This time it won’t be as bad as it was in my last life’ Xu Qianghua thought.

In his last life, people were still getting used to the change and could not react when the first wave of Zerg came into this world.

Being unprepared, they lost many human lives. The Zerg occupied a quarter of the world and were poised to continue their advance.

That’s when some of the family-style players, who had spent money on the game before, finally stabilized their families and had enough manpower to deal with the Zerg.

It was still a hard battle, lasting hundreds of years, with humans initially suffering the highest casualty rate. Slowly, they drove off the Zerg and launched counter-attacks on the Zerg world, which later merged with ours.

As for why it took so long, it was because the Zerg conceive hundreds of newborns each time they give birth, resulting in millions in just the first wave. More powerful Zerg monsters appeared in the later stages.

“Anyway, thinking more about this won’t change the facts. We just have to deal with this in the future and make sure that we don’t lose as badly as we did in my last life,” Xu Qianghua thought.

Right now, Xu Qianghua and his group were all sitting in the main room with their terminals in their hands, waiting for his signal.

He did not tell them the exact time when the game would go online, as he himself did not know. This was because he joined the game on the second day, without any information.

The only reason he did was because he wanted to see why someone would spend close to a billion luminas on an unknown game.

But now all he could do was wait and keep checking to see when the game would be released. It was already 10 a.m., and he had been up since 6, just to make sure he wouldn’t miss the first day.

While waiting, he told everyone in the room to download the game as soon as it was released and asked them to inform other members who weren’t with them to do the same.

After about half an hour, Xu Qianghua finally saw the game on the app store, but he had to wait another half an hour for the app store to inspect the game and ensure it wasn’t harmful to the software or users.

After waiting a painstakingly long half-hour, the game was finally available for download. Xu Qianghua did so without a second thought, followed by the ladies in the room and hundreds of others who had been warned about the game.

The game was free to download and labeled as beta testing, making it even more under the radar.

It didn’t take long for the game to download, only about 5 minutes, which might not seem long, but with improved technology, the download times for anything had significantly decreased.

Take a 100 GB game, for example. In Xu Qianghua’s original world, it took anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour on good electronics and even longer on bad ones. But in this world, the same game takes less than 30 seconds to download, showing how big this game is.

And this is with most of the game’s cache being an online resource instead of needing to be installed before playing.

The reason for this is that the World’s Will is using the game to not only give a few lucky players a head start but also to use their terminals as a testing tool for the future digital screens that everyone in the new world will have.

This is one of the most important tools that the World’s Will has given every person in this world as this is not available in other races, at least not the races that are known and visited by Xu Qianghua.
