Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

CRACK!

CRACK!

CRACK!

With the second wave of game ability inheritances, the rate at which the Earth cracked apart and expanded accelerated once more.

Even with the abilities inherited the day before, and despite some preparations, the quaking Earth and the monsters that randomly reappeared still caused considerable chaos. Of course, this chaos was far less severe than the previous night.

RING! RING! RING!

RING! RING! RING!

RING! RING! RING!

Shen Fei had just cleared out the villa district using his Defense Towers. As he began clearing the newly spawned monsters within a five-kilometer radius, Father Shen’s phone suddenly rang.

"Old Sun and I can’t rest!"

"The Tourism Management Office is calling for an emergency assembly!"

"We have to go stop the monsters from the second wave!"

After taking the call, Father Shen grabbed Uncle Sun and they rushed toward the Tourism Management Office. The second wave of inheritances had begun, and it was the perfect time for the newly formed Tourism Management Office to establish its authority and show its strength. Therefore, all members were summoned overnight. Father Shen and Uncle Sun were, of course, among them.

WHOOSH!

WHOOSH!

Each of them grabbed a Soldier Chess Piece. Father Shen also took a Cannon, while Uncle Sun took a Chariot. The two of them then quickly left the villa.

"Should I head back then?" After the two fathers left, Sun Yu asked.

"Sure, go ahead! Get some good rest. This kind of chaos is going to be the new normal, so there’s no need to stay up all night!"

He had already cleared the second wave of monsters from both the villa district and Sun Yu’s adjacent neighborhood, so Shen Fei didn’t object to his decision.

Sun Yu lives very close, well within the range of my Defense Towers. He’ll be fine.

WHOOSH!

WHOOSH!

WHOOSH!

Once Sun Yu left, Shen Fei resumed controlling his Defense Towers, clearing out monsters within a five-kilometer radius.

Half an hour later, going at full power, Shen Fei had completely cleared all the monsters within the target area. He had established another five-kilometer safe zone. This time, it was just monsters, with no need to identify malicious players. His clearing speed was several times faster than his first sweep during the day.

.

.

"Where are they? There’s nothing here!!!"

At the Tourism Management Office, Father Shen and Uncle Sun met up with Li Yunlong. They led the new members out, splitting into five groups to begin clearing the monsters that had spawned in Qing City. But to everyone’s shock, there wasn’t a single monster in one of their designated directions. This stunned Li Yunlong, who had planned to use this operation to forge the team and showcase the Tourism Management Office’s strength.

"Uh..."

Looking ahead, he saw that the area five kilometers out was right where his villa was. Seeing that all the monsters in this direction had vanished, Father Shen felt like he was putting the pieces together...

"Change direction!"

"Tonight is the Tourism Management Office’s first battle! We have to make it a good one!"

"The other branches have already started live-streaming their monster clearing. We need to speed up!!"

"Qing City won’t fall behind anyone!!"

Li Yunlong led Father Shen and Uncle Sun, changed direction, and charged toward a more distant area.

RAT-TAT-TAT!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Soon, amidst the sounds of military gunfire, every member of the Tourism Management Office joined the fight. The five-kilometer radius around the Shen Family villa might be clear of monsters, but that certainly wasn’t the case elsewhere... Some of the younger members of the Tourism Management Office, who had just inherited new game skills, were shouting as they unleashed their abilities, fighting with wild abandon.

[Name: Traveling Frog]

[Existing Skins: Dark Red Fire Frog, Thousand-Year Bullfrog]

[Fixed Skills: Navigation, Treasure Hunting]

[Skin Skills: Early Warning, Detoxify]

Back at the Shen Family home, having once again easily cleared the monsters within a five-kilometer radius of the villa, Shen Fei checked on his sister’s new skin. This time, she had inherited a skin called "Thousand-Year Bullfrog." The accompanying skill was Detoxify.

Not bad at all.

Even though I have specialized towers like a Poison Mist Tower, Antitoxic Tower, Healing Tower, and Anti-Curse Tower, the Thousand-Year Bullfrog can move around freely. It’ll definitely have its own important uses...

[Rainfall Spell: Skill. Can be cast on a specific plot of land, providing crops with the water needed for growth. Cooldown: 10 hours.]

After checking his sister’s newly inherited skin, Shen Fei looked at his mother’s ability. His mother’s first random inheritance was a "Skill." After today’s second wave, she had inherited another skill. Seeing that [Rainfall Spell] only had a description of its effect and no specific numerical values, Shen Fei nodded without saying anything.

My mother’s ability will only show its true value in a Neutral City in the future. Right now, the apocalypse has just begun, so there isn’t much opportunity to use it. Once we have a Neutral City and have cultivated land within it... that’s when her inherited ability will truly shine...

.

After reviewing his mother’s and sister’s new abilities and getting a general idea of them, he ignored the Forum, which was once again exploding with activity. Shen Fei activated the Early Warning Defense Tower and prepared to go straight to bed.

Just as I told Sun Yu, this kind of chaos will be the new normal. Rest is essential. Last night was the first inheritance of game abilities, the most chaotic time, so it’s understandable that many people stayed up all night. But from now on, this situation—monsters respawning daily and all sorts of new things appearing endlessly—is going to be constant. I have to get proper rest!

"Huh?"

"What the hell!!"

"Again!!!"

"Is this never going to end!?"

Just as Shen Fei was about to tell his mother and sister to get some rest, he suddenly saw his panel open up again.

DING!

[Due to the influence of a special player!]

[Version 4.2 update commencing...]

.

WHOOSH~

WHOOSH~

WHOOSH~

As Shen Fei stared dumbfounded, his panel began to transform...

Version 4.2 had arrived!

In his previous life, Version 4.2 didn’t arrive until a month after the game inheritances began. Now, it was updating on just the second day.

Seeing the panel change so drastically in an instant, all of Shen Fei’s sleepiness vanished.

Version 4.2, according to the research from his previous life, was the beginning of datafication. This datafication, along with the inheritance of game abilities, would gradually permeate every aspect of reality. In his previous life, this version didn’t start until a month after the apocalypse began, once four game categories had been inherited. But now, it had appeared when only two-sevenths of the first category had been inherited.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Fei turned his gaze to the drastically changed panel.

Previously, the player panel had been very simple, consisting mainly of a few lines of text announcing details about the ability inheritance. With the Version 4.2 update, the first thing to change was every inheritor’s panel. In this datafication update, the very first things to be datafied were the inheritors themselves.

[Name: Shen Fei]

[Health: 10 (Untainted)]

[Attack Power: 1]

[Speed: 2]

[Accessories: Tenth Tier Defense Tower x62, Soldier Chess Piece x1]

[Individual Combat Power: 5]

[Comprehensive Combat Power: 621,005]

[Note: Datafication is continuously being improved and optimized...]

.

"What the hell kind of Health is this?!"

"Am I this squishy?"

Seeing his own personal panel after the datafication, Shen Fei’s face went dark. His Health was only 10 points.

At least, just as I’d hoped, it has the "Untainted" note, which means I haven’t been corrupted by any Cultivation Techniques or bloodlines. But still, 10 points is really low.

A normal person’s Health was 10 points. Shen Fei had never expected that at the very beginning of datafication, his own Health would also be a mere 10 points...

I have to inherit my Crystal and equipment as soon as possible!!

Seeing that he only had 10 Health made Shen Fei’s desire for his Crystal all the more urgent. In the game, his Crystal Health was a full 1,000,000. Once it fused with his body, his Health would instantly shoot up to one million. Right now, his physical body in reality only had 10 Health. It was just too fragile...

The sudden datafication and his meager 10 Health points only strengthened Shen Fei’s resolve not to leave the villa unless absolutely necessary. At the same time, it also reinforced his determination to clear the area around his home and establish a secure safe zone.

SLAM!

With datafication underway, Shen Fei slapped his palm down on the table in front of him.

The table didn’t break! And no data appeared.

Shen Fei remembered that in the later stages of datafication in his previous life, even objects like tables and chairs would display a Durability value; everything would eventually be datafied. Right now, the table hadn’t been datafied yet, but compared to his previous life, the overall speed of datafication had already increased countless times...

If 4.2 is this early, can Version 4.3 be far behind?

A thought suddenly surfaced in Shen Fei’s mind...
