After exiting the Ga Cabin, Wang Linchi went out for a stroll, just to make his presence known and avoid anyone thinking he had died at ho.
When he returned, he started browsing through so news.
"The representative of Chen Country announces plans to enter 'God-given World'?" Wang Linchi stared at a striking news headline and clicked to read more.
He thought it was so kind of marketing gimmick, but it turned out to be true.
However, they were not fully committing yet; they were currently only allowing the military to enter, with an initial batch of one hundred thousand people.
This action prompted many large corporations and companies to prepare for a completely new competitive arena. Until Chen Country made a move, these companies hadn't paid much attention to the virtual online gaming sector. After all, stricter Ga System controls were in place, making many of their usual tactics obsolete, and they were not ga companies to begin with.
Only after this policy was issued did these large corporations take notice.
Additionally, news had broken that the Abyss Difficulty dungeon of Black Wind Stronghold had been conquered. Many ga studios and gaming clubs offered sky-high salaries to recruit Wang Linchi.
However, Wang Linchi only glanced at the offers; there was no way he would join. These people were quite ruthless. If he joined, they might give him the promised money, but they wouldn't hesitate to squeeze a hundred tis more out of him. If they didn't, it would an the lawyers who drafted their contracts weren't professional.
In a Transcendent ga like this, only the rules established within the ga could be trusted. Real-world circumstances could be disregarded.
As for finding him, that was even more impossible. 'God-given World' was very secretive. Wang Linchi couldn't find any official address or registration information; it was almost like an untraceable product.
Therefore, any attempt to demand ga data through connections was likely baseless.
"Even though I decided to be a slacker, I still end up grinding away every day," Wang Linchi grumbled helplessly.
He hadn't imdiately converted his ga character's Experience into his own strength. This was primarily because he needed to advance after reaching the main city. If he used up his Experience now, he would drop back to Level 1, which would prevent him from triggering the advancent quest and completing his first class transition.
So, he decided to wait; he wasn't short on ti.
Once I get to the main city, I'll still need to set up a stall to sell equipnt.
Wang Linchi had a lot of unused equipnt taking up space in his inventory, so he decided to sell so of it.
Lying on his bed, he skimd through the news while pondering matters related to the ga.
If reality is the surface world, then is the ga an inner world?
And what about those Abyss Difficulty dungeons?
I have a feeling this whole thing could beco a major disaster in the future.
Wang Linchi felt this world might not be peaceful either. He would prefer it if no Transcendent beings existed... Oh, but if that were the case, aliens might show up instead.
So this Reincarnation Seal is also a trap, huh.
It was only then that Wang Linchi realized the Reincarnation Seal had sent Zhu Tian to the Soul Aspect World, a world on the verge of destruction.
And after sending him to this current world, the inexplicable appearance of 'God-given World' felt like it was constantly pushing him towards an apocalyptic scenario.
If that was truly the case, he would have to find a way to flee quickly. Otherwise, if an Abyss invasion occurred, he'd be finished.
Believe it or not, such a possibility was quite real.
In that case, does this an a prophesied Son of Destiny will also erge?
Wang Linchi was rather perturbed; he definitely didn't want to face another Yan Ming King, especially not in a virtual online ga world.
He had tried; there was no way to use any underhanded tricks in the virtual ga. For instance, he had attempted to analyze the Scholar Profession and Literary Warfare Skills, but he was completely unable to parse them. They were essentially just lines of code forming a set of rules.
However, these rules were exceptionally comprehensive.
The result of any analysis was just the normal ga progression, confirming that he was rely a ga character.
Unless he could find the servers for 'God-given World', anything Wang Linchi managed to analyze would be aningless.
KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK.
A knock ca from the door.
Wang Linchi was sowhat puzzled. Who would co looking for for no reason?
"Coming!" Wang Linchi got up to open the door. It wasn't soone checking the water ter or gas lines, but an auntie from the neighborhood committee, easily identifiable by her armband.
"Can I help you with sothing?" Wang Linchi asked.
"Yes, yes! The higher-ups have sent out so questionnaires about 'God-given World,' that ga you young people are all playing. You seed busy before, so I didn't want to disturb you. This morning, Little Liu from security saw you go out, so I hurried over to get you to fill one out." The neighborhood committee auntie wasn't pushy; in fact, she seed quite considerate of young people.
Seeing this, Wang Linchi accepted the questionnaire, saying, "I'm so sorry to have troubled you with so many trips. I'll fill it out right away."
He then glanced at the survey's content. The first section asked for his citizen ID number and na, followed by character ID and similar details.
"What, are the higher-ups taking this so seriously now?" Wang Linchi asked nonchalantly.
He had no intention of writing his actual ga character ID. Who knew if this survey was genuinely from the higher-ups or just a ploy by soone with ulterior motives?
"Very seriously. Apparently, the city governnt requires it; it's a major task," the neighborhood committee auntie said, not hiding anything. In her eyes, it was just a ga.
Soon, Wang Linchi finished filling it out. Apart from his citizen ID number and na, he'd mostly filled in random information.
When he heard the city governnt required it, he understood it was probably so corporate sche.
This was because the survey also asked for details like his profession, Skills, whether he had a limited account, and other private information. It clearly wasn't the work of upstanding individuals.
No one in their right mind would fill in all truthful information anyway.
Wang Linchi, wanting to be polite to the neighborhood committee auntie, filled out the entire form.
"Since when has the city started to value the gaming industry? I thought they always disregarded it," Wang Linchi asked after handing back the questionnaire.
"Oh no, it's so company in the city that wants them. I heard they have quite a background," the neighborhood committee auntie said, then started to list various complaints.
Wang Linchi confird that this wasn't an official directive but likely a private endeavor.
It's probably a company started by so second-generation rich kid, using their connections to gather intelligence.
"I see. You all really have it rough," Wang Linchi remarked. He then mused, Chen Country probably knows a fair bit about the inner workings of 'God-given Ga', maybe even a lot of details.
He didn't particularly care about it, much less think of sabotaging anything. These matters had nothing to do with him.
While the information he'd filled in was fabricated, it was still logical enough not to seem obviously fake at first glance.
"It's no trouble at all. In fact, it seems like good things co in pairs today! Your upstairs neighbor is also off, so I can get him to fill one out too and save myself another trip," said the neighborhood committee auntie, preparing to go upstairs.
Just as she turned, she saw a young man walking down the stairs.
"Ye Tian! I was just about to look for you," the neighborhood committee auntie said, hurrying over. She handed him a questionnaire and began to chatter, clearly acquainted with him.
Wang Linchi exchanged a glance with the young man, then nodded and smiled courteously.
The youth nad Ye Tian also returned a polite nod, then took the survey form and pen from the neighborhood committee auntie, saying, "Aunt Zheng, I heard the commotion, so I ca down myself..."
Wang Linchi didn't continue to watch. He closed the door and went back inside.
He has such a distinct air about him. Could he be the protagonist? Wang Linchi felt a little nervous.
Given how the Reincarnation Seal operates, it was entirely possible it had placed him near the protagonist so he could acquire the Protagonist's Aura and use it to recharge the Seal.
"Aunt Zheng, is soone living on this floor?" Ye Tian asked curiously. In his mory, the apartnt below his had always been vacant.
"It was empty before, yes. Soone bought it but left it unused for a long ti. Later, Little Wang's parents had an accident, so he moved back from out of town. He's only been living there for a few days," the neighborhood committee auntie recalled, having so recollection of the matter.
This only deepened Ye Tian's confusion. Could this be a change due to my reincarnation? After all, in my previous life, the apartnt below was definitely empty.
However, he soon dismissed the thought. Looking at the questionnaire in his hand, he couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
Hmph, the notorious Black Theft Guild. I doubt you'll even appear in this lifeti.
As a Reincarnator, he naturally knew this questionnaire wasn't official. It was distributed by a player-farming company founded by so second-generation scion. The company hadn't transitioned its business model yet, but once they finished collecting player information, they would transform into a ga company.
In his previous life, he had been one of the players they enslaved. He had only managed to escape their clutches after great difficulty. Yet, by exploiting players like him, the Black Theft Guild had grown into an imnsely powerful force, one whose sheer scale he could only look up to in awe in his previous life.
