Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

The moment Shen Fei finished speaking, Zero immediately began her work, tapping away at the empty air.

With a precise address, problems like this, which were related to hacking, were right up Zero’s alley.

WHOOSH. WHOOSH. WHOOSH.

Wearing a pair of small, black, fingerless gloves made of an unidentifiable material, Zero began rapidly tapping at the air. As Shen Fei watched her work, a multicolored virtual keyboard materialized in front of her, followed shortly by a virtual screen.

"Holy crap!"

"That’s badass!"

This was the first time he’d seen Zero in action up close, and Shen Fei was more than a little surprised.

No matter how he looked at it, this Ethereum Editor ability was utterly unique.

On the screen that had materialized out of thin air, Shen Fei saw a massive, pitch-black underground space. He also saw vast arrays of servers within the space, all lying dormant after losing power.

Then, as Zero continued her work, he watched in amazement as white, virtual electrical wires were sketched into existence out of thin air.

It was as if nano-sized ions were accumulating. Nanoparticles materialized from thin air and rapidly built upon one another. Incredibly, circuits that had been severed by the disaster were being repaired right before his eyes.

"Holy shit!"

Zero’s actions gave Shen Fei a huge shock. He knew Ethereum Punk was badass, but he hadn’t realized it was *this* badass.

It’s simply magical! This is straight-up creating something from nothing!

Hang City was thousands of kilometers away from Mian City in the southwest. Now that the planet had grown larger, that distance had increased by at least tenfold.

The fact that Zero can create things from nothing over such a vast distance is a little terrifying. If she could do this to someone while they were sleeping, creating a bag of metal shards in their stomach... that would be the perfect silent assassination.

"Don’t look so shocked!" Zero explained, her hands flying across the multicolored keyboard that had materialized before her. "As long as there’s a network and a power source, I can reach any place, no matter how far!

"Besides, this creation ability of mine can only make things related to networks and wiring! I can’t just create anything I want, and there are requirements for the environment, too!

"This just happens to be where the servers are located, so it’s a perfect fit..."

She was afraid that if she didn’t explain, Shen Fei’s eyes would pop right out of his head in astonishment.

...

WHOOSH. WHOOSH. WHOOSH.

Shen Fei watched as, on the screen, the once pitch-black game servers were reactivated. A thin layer of sweat also appeared on Zero’s forehead.

She had made it sound easy, but performing this kind of operation over such an extreme distance had left Zero on the verge of collapse.

"Wanna try it?"

A few minutes later, waving her hand to dismiss the keyboard in front of her, Zero plopped down on a parapet, panting heavily. That last bit of work had taken a lot out of her. After all, the distance was immense, and she still hadn’t inherited most of her abilities.

"Try it, my ass! There’s no computer here..." Shen Fei rolled his eyes.

He only had four uses of his Long-range Teleportation left; he couldn’t be so wasteful as to just teleport back to his bedroom to try it. He’d just have to wait until he got back to test it.

He had only mentioned his idea to Zero moments ago so she would have a heads-up and could prepare. He never expected that she would just hammer it out and fix the whole thing in one go. This was completely beyond his expectations.

"By the way, since you have this ability, why don’t you remotely control Myanmar’s network and pull back the remaining 5%? I heard that place is full of scam callers, so their network should be wide open, right?"

"What do you think!?"

Unfortunately for him, Zero just rolled her eyes, refusing to answer the question.

"I’ve done my part. When are you going to do yours?" still catching her breath, Zero pressed Shen Fei for a timeline.

Shen Fei replied after a moment’s thought, his head turning to scan Mist City. "How about three days from now?

"In three days, I’ll have fully inherited my second ability, so I’ll be a bit stronger.

"It’ll be safer that way! What do you say?"

Zero was surprised. "Hm?"

She had thought Shen Fei would be like her and immediately lead a team to Myanmar to find what she needed. She never expected him to stall for three days.

Shen Fei had managed to snatch a 100% National Treasure Divine Artifact; Zero didn’t believe for a second his claim that he needed to wait three days for his ability inheritance to complete just to increase his Combat Power.

It was obvious Shen Fei had an ulterior motive. Even showing up today without any warning was strange.

Watching Shen Fei look left and right as if searching for something, Zero gave an impassive nod. "Fine, that works too."

She wanted to see what Shen Fei was really up to...

"So, where are your other sisters? I don’t see II or any of the others."

Sure enough, Zero didn’t have to wait long before Shen Fei asked, feigning nonchalance.

"Who are you looking for?" Zero asked, her face devoid of expression.

Shen Fei replied, trying to sound casual. "Any of them, really. I kind of miss everyone...

"Besides, I heard Mist City has a City Lord named V. You didn’t introduce me last time. It’d be nice to meet her while I’m here..."

"So, you’re here for V!" A strange smile suddenly appeared on Zero’s face.

Shen Fei waved his hands dismissively. "No, no... I just wanted to get to know everyone..."

In his nervousness, he failed to notice the teasing glint in Zero’s eyes.

"Let’s go! I’ll introduce you!"

Having finally figured out Shen Fei’s true purpose, Zero was overjoyed.

This... this... he took the bait!

...

"Okay! Then I’m the one? Thank you, everyone, for yielding to me! Thank you! Thank you!"
