Chapter 494 The Last War (8)
The first and best virtual reality game yed by billions of people around the world.
Arcadia.
Indistinguishable from reality... Another perfect reality that could only exist in a fantasy world did not remain as a mere y, butpletely transformed the culture and daily life of mankind as a whole.
“Baby, where shall we travel this holiday? europe? USA? Or Australia?”
“Um..... If we have the money to go there, shall we just enjoy the premium package at Fantastic Universe? This time, a new activity called Raising Dragons came out, and they said it was the best.”
“Honey, our Byeong-ho... You don’t seem to have any aptitude for studying. These days, when you enter a ce called a guild, the sry of argepany is said to be ridiculously high.”
“hey! This time, the space invasion of the cat robot without ears 2 is released! did you hear that?”
“Virtual Office is really sweet. Sincemuting to and from work takes less than a second, I can no longer do that nonsense that I used to waste three hours on the subway every day.”
People who transcend time and space... and enjoy all kinds of benefits that have not been enjoyed in any era in the limitless resource of imagination. That''s why the world of Arcadia, which was released just over two years ago, took root deeply in people''s daily lives at a phenomenal speed and fascinated everyone.
That''s why, although the reasons were slightly different for each of them, everyone jumped into this final war with the same goal in mind.
“Don’t touch my food line and get everything off!”
“If this game fails, what are you going to do with all the money I invested! Absolutely not!”
“Quaaaaaa! I crave as much contribution as possible and hit one legendary item!”
“Operation is shit, but does that make sense to end the service! You damn gamers!”
With the promise to protect this beautiful and dreamy world of fantasy with your own two hands.
“As expected... watching a fight is the most fun in the world, isn''t it for nothing?”
Minsu is munching on popcorn while watching all the situations where everyone is struggling desperately. He looked at the world of Arcadia with a look of great interest and said with a satisfied smile.
“The heavenly world, the demonic world, the phantom world, and the spirit world will intrude into this final war...”
Existences that would not have even appeared in the original scenario n. Those who should have just watched the war between the Void and Arcadia asplete neutrals and bystanders were all rushing forward and siding with Arcadia, destroying all the beings of the Void that they had worked so hard to create.
“Jack, isn’t this too unfair? Arcadia''s power alone is ignorant, but you''re calling your friends here? This is not fair in a fair fight.”
[Where do you see this as a fair fight? The bnce is also in a bad situation.]
To Min-su, who smiled mischievously and argued, as if he was not dissatisfied at all, Jack replied with a bold attitude.
[Anyway, this is what you want, right? To make something so big that no one can even handle it. I created this final scenario in the first ce because I wanted to make a mess that I couldn''t even think to deal with and enjoy watching it.]
Minsu doesn''t care about the end of Arcadia and just wants to enjoy the current situation of confusion and shock. So, after pointing that out, he did not deny Jack''s question as to what was the problem.
“Well... that''s not wrong. To be honest, this situation is rather good for me now. It''s true that the bigger the board, the more fun it gets. In fact, it is true that the war situation is more exciting.”
“But...but one thing is wrong. I didn''t make this finale scenario just for fun.”
[What...?]
“I said it once before, but forgot it? In the first ce, why did I create this existence called Asura and conceived this final scenario from the early nning stage of the game called Arcadia?”
Minsu pointed his finger at Jack, who was looking at him with an absurd expression, saying that everything had a deep meaning.
“This is the setting I made for you.”
[what....? For me...?]
“Basically, AI, including Alice, assists all users to recognize Arcadia as a game with excellentputing and analytical power. However, since they do not have the same creativity and imagination as humans, they can only imitate them and cannot create and maintain this world perfectly. Because you, the creator of Arcadia, exist, Arcadia can also exist.”
Arcadia, a fantasy world created andpleted only by the imagination of one human being.
In order to serve billions of users in this living, breathing and changing world in his head, Alice''s assistance was essential, but it was not the core.
“You don’t think that the world of Arcadia in your head canst forever, right?”
Jack, who was just 17 years old, had a bright future ahead of him, but he was a human who would eventually die as time passed. Therefore, this fantasy world could not be immortal.
“Fifty years... Well, if you''re lucky, you might be able tost a century, but eventually the world of Arcadia will disappear. With your death, our humanity will lose the one and only perfect virtual world. Well.... If you invest astronomical amounts of capital and manpower, you can somehow imitate it to a simr level, but I''m betting everything, and I''m sure you can''t re-create a lively world where everything lives and breathes so perfectly to the level you created. going to be.”
[.....]
The distant future that I can''t even feel yet. Jack, who had never seriously pondered or thought about death, kept his mouth shut when Minsu talked about the future of Arcadia, which would disappear with his death.
“That''s why your world needs an ending. With the advent of Asura, who destroys everything in this world and returns it toplete emptiness and nothingness, everyone enjoys thest moment to the fullest while feeling a sense of shame in front of a huge end that they cannot even dare to resist. It will be forever remembered as a legendary game that will never happen again to everyone and another world that was so perfect.”
In other words, Asura and the final scenario created for the final ending of Arcadia, which will disappear with Jack''s death, as the final self-destruct switch.
However, listening to his story in silence, Jack, who was about to kneel down, said, ‘Our Minsu had such a deep meaning!''
[But I''m still perfectly healthy?]
[And if it was a damn game anyway, why did you stake 15% with the final chapter scenario as bait?] [
Moreover.... Wasn''t it purely for fun that you pressed the switch for the chapter scenario?]
Even if you think about it, there are many strange things. And to Jack''s questioning, Minsu smiled at that evil smile and answered so shamelessly.
“yes. I started because I thought it would be fun.”
[.....]
Jack, with a look of sincere contempt, looks like he''s staring at a madman. Then Minsu waved his hand and said.
“why. Honestly, I think I''ll have to wait a hundred years for you to die, but it''s a scenario I put my heart and soul into in my own way, so you might be wondering how it will y out.”
curiosity. and fun.
It is an unchanging fact that these sadals were punished for only two reasons. That''s why Jack let out a deep sigh with a tired face as if to stop talking.
[done. what do i say Only my mouth hurts.]
“Hey, but you’re not saying anything about me openly intervening.”
Minsu nced at the situation in Arcadia. And he looked at the core forces of the void dying with a gruesome appearance that was difficult to express in words, and said as if he was dumbfounded.
“Still, isn’t it crossing the line for even the World Tree to intervene? How are you going to beat that?”
The unnamed who are fighting fiercely against the roots of trees that have risen from all over the continent.
There are adventurers and residents of Arcadia. And seeing that Elyos, Asmodian spirits, and phantom beasts were being lynched as a group and were literally being killed, it was clear that they were invaders, but the forces of the void felt pitiful.
[What do you do? I’m not like that.]
“What...?”
[This is all your karma.]
“What do you mean...?”
Minsu still doesn''t understand the situation properly. However, Jack, who is contemting the world of Arcadia directly, showed an image of an area of Arcadia on the monitor right in front of Minsu.
“What else is that...?”
Woo woo woo.
Jae-Young, who is on Gigas and holding two sacred instruments, isunching an onught against Asura.
And looking at his overwhelming inaction, Jack said in awe.
[This is so ironic. Like that bastard, all the elements you made to fuck mee together like this ande back as a huge dagger that fucks you up. Is this the butterfly effect?]
“What....?”
Butterfly Effect.
As the saying goes that the pping of a small butterfly''s wings causes a huge storm on the other side of the globe, the countless elements hidden by Minsu are all mixed together to create unbelievable results.
A fraudulent job that allows you to distort and disregard all settings andws with the guarantee of probability.
Wandering song of the turbulent world.
It is a product of Gestalt, which was created by providing cutting-edge science fiction technology that can never be tolerated in Arcadia, a medieval fantasy, and the best masterpiece created by the fusion of magic and science.
giant.
Thest legacy left for revenge by the light dragon, Declen, who was the only one of Arcadia''s existence to know that this world was a lie and went mad and ran amok.
eternal heart.
The settings that Minsu made and cheapened without thinking.
However, all those settings came together and came together to create an unexpected result.
The inevitability created by coincidence and coincidence.
Destiny created by inevitability and inevitability intertwined andplicatedly intertwined.
And in that destiny, the miracle that was absolutely impossible originally was happening in real time.
[Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu]
“Wow..... What is that now? Can you really beat Asura?”
[okay. In this scenario, Asura was just downgraded to the level of a strong deity, and the level of power that child can exert now is unbelievably strong.] The only way to prevent the end of this world with your own power
is not treat
Seeing Jaeyoung try to make this ridiculous miracle a reality, Minsu opened his mouth.
“Really... No, that’s what happens? Could I have made something like that...?”
Attack itself is impossible... no, the final scenario designed to be impossible in the first ce.
However, seeing that he was trying to clear the final scenario with an absurd strategy, Minsu muttered with an absurd expression on his face, but Jack found this situation so natural.
[What is new? That kid is a total troll. That''s a huge gag. Do you know how many executives and staff members worked overtime with nosebleeds and were tormented by users because of that one guy?]
A troll that deviated from the developers'' ns and intentions with oundish and all kinds of bizarre concepts. Sometimes, theymit all sorts of nuisances, earning re from other users and being criticized, but in their entricity, apletely original and new meta was born and a strategy was created.
And... Jack looked at Minsu''s bewildered expression for the first time with a bewildered expression, smiled so satisfied and muttered proudly.
[Still, thanks to that troll, the end of this world won''t go the way you want?]
Feeling immense vicarious satisfaction seeing him stuffing a big, huge candy into that damn kid''s mouth.
