Chapter 476: Issue Derived from StarCraft
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
As a person who had traveled through space and time, Mr. Fang took it for granted that the Earth was a sphere in his understanding.
However, the people who were born and raised in this world all thought Mr. Fang was wrong, and they completely rejected his suggestion.
However, Mr. Fang thought it was meaningless to argue with them. After all, he had even traveled through space and time, and thus he shouldn’t be surprised by this as even stranger things might happen.
Of course, Mr. Fang still thought that he was right since the sun, the moon, and the stars above their heads were not fake.
Despite their puzzlement about this problem, the players were enjoying the game greatly. Although the battles in campaign mode usually happened on different planets, they could still appreciate the endless universe during the animations being scenes.
[These zerg units looks powerful…] Ning Bi posted a picture showing a group of zerg units catching up with battlecruisers in space. [How do they fly?]
[With wings ]
[Nonsense. This zerg unit looks like a big crab! How can it have no wings but still fly?]
Mr. Fang replied, [ They fly with psionic power…]
They talked about these novel things in the group chat from morning to night. For example, they wondered why the universe was always dark and why the people didn’t fly during the day.
Meanwhile, a group of artifact masters had begun their new research.
[Look! Isn’t it powerful?!] In the group chat for artifact masters, Tang Yu posted a picture of a mushroom cloud. [I finally launched it after being killed by the computer many times…]
[How come this power is so great?! ]
[What’s this? A new spiritual artifact?] Some artifact masters who hadn’t seen this scene before asked in surprise.
Li Haoran said, [Can anyone explain the theory of this? What kind of gunpowder can achieve this effect?]
Duan Yue added, [It appears to be more destructive than the explosion of my damn furnace when I tried to make the Heavenly Mirror…]
It was well known that the first batch of gunpowder was a by-product of ancient Daoists trying to make elixir pills, and there were similar things in this world. In most cases, they were treated as failures in the elixir making process.
Lan Mo chimed in, [I’ve thought for a long time and still can’t figure out a way to study the mushroom cloud, Daoist friends. I just couldn’t understand it.]
Jun Yangzi voiced his opinion, [I think the gauss rifle is more interesting. It uses lightning which is part of our spiritual spells, right? Spiritual spells are our strong suit, no?]
Duan Buyi typed, [ It needs a highly steady source of lightning energy, not like the spells that we use to shock people for a quick second.]
Jun Yanzi posted the rough blueprint and the design drawing of a huge crossbow. He said furiously, [Can’t we think of a solution to this problem? Even ordinary people could do it. This…]
[I intend to make it into an advanced weapon like the Immortal-Slaying Crossbow. This crossbow is quite simple in structure, but we can put other features on it.]
In fact, Baoping Spiritual Master was an experienced artifact master. The moment this cultivator joined the group, she heard people talking about this topic. [Our Heavenly Academy has a spiritual spell which can transform lightning fire into threads. Maybe we can try it?]
[Good idea!] Tang Yu clapped his hands with bright eyes, ignoring the mushroom cloud that he had no clue about how to research. [I think we can further simplify the crossbow and attach spiritual spells, or even better, arrays… maybe we can get a rough draft first?]
[Good! Good!]
[This spiritual artifact would be awesome!]
[I think we can make it more powerful than those in the game.]
[We can make a big one with runes engraved on it and put it on a spiritual ship.]
Li Haoran, [Good idea! It will be unrivaled!]
[Um…] Someone with the ID of ‘Spiritual Ship Expert Gongshu Kuo’ posted a screenshot of a carrier. [Daoist friends, do you think we can make a spiritual ship like this one?]
[This… you can study it at your leisure, Brother.]
[Best wishes to you.]
[I hope I can see it before I die.]
[If you succeed, you’ll be famous for thousands of years as your name will be recorded into history books.]
[No, for 10,000 years.]
“…”
For the artifact masters, playing games wasn’t the only fun thing to do; they also enjoyed studying all kinds of strange spiritual artifacts and discussing their ideas in the group chat.
Of course, some people could only play games. For example…
Jiang Xiaoyue was now driving a vulture vehicle, screaming all the way as she did it. With a dark face, Mr. Fang turned off her external communication.
Controlling Kerrigan (Queen of Blades) who was still a ghost agent, Su Tianji was doing well with her excellent shooting skills.
She posted a screenshot in the group; the picture showed her leaning on a wall in a deserted human base. While wiping sweat off her forehead, she said, [This battle was hard, but I still got through. Hahaha! (Husky’s laughing face)]
[Which battle is this?]
Su Tianji replied, [The battle in which I was ordered to stall the Protoss army. I did it all by myself (Jiang Xiaoyue’s smug face with the victory hand).]
It was an epic victory in which she blocked so many Protoss elite units all by herself; it was a battle that could be recorded in the history.
Jiang Xiaoyue typed, [Sister Su, how can you steal my personal emoji! ]
[Awesome! I haven’t reached that part yet!]
[Magnificent!]
Su Tianji replied, [It finally ended. I’ll take a good break afterwards!]
In the war among the Terrans, Protoss, and Zerg in StarCraft, each battle was legendary and much more magnificent than those in other games. They were more so in the system version of the game.
The humans who were as tiny as ants stood in the huge ruins and looked up at the huge carriers that were blocking the sky, and the groups of zerg units flew all over the sky in the smoke and devoted themselves in these battles. Even from the perspective of a cultivator, it felt exhilarated to experience such a magnificent battle.
As if they were being summoned by something, many zerg units swarmed up like ocean waves.
[Ugh? Sir, how come my communication is cut off? I was told that I can retreat after the battle, right?] Suddenly, Su Tianji sent a message in the group chat.
[The battle that Sister Kerrigan is in?]
[You’re finished. You might have been betrayed.]
Su Tianji asked, [What?!]
Putting on the combat goggles, Su Tianji looked forward and saw many zerg units surging up toward her like ocean waves.
There was no exit or reinforcement; she was surrounded by many zerg units; they were everywhere.
It was probably the first time that humans faced a horrifying force like this one. The sea of zerg was even more terrifying than heavenly power.
The gun slipped down from Su Tianji’s fingers when despair swallowed her like cold sea water.
At this moment, one could best understand why a human elite would embark on the road of revenge as the Queen of Blades.
“F*ck! I quit!” she cussed.
