Monsters Are Coming

Standing up, he walked out of the Game Pod.

Ah Lan came to the dining table, picked up a glass, and drank a cup of blue liquid.

His gaze swept across the room.

The room he was in was mainly white and blue, with walls made of semi-transparent nanomaterials.

The surface flowed with faint blue light patterns, seemingly alive as they slightly fluctuated with the light and sound in the room.

These light patterns were not mere decorations, but created using holographic environment simulation technology.

The wall surface was composed of countless tiny nano-pixels that could instantly change color, brightness, and texture according to commands.

They could even simulate dynamic light and shadow effects.

At this moment, the chip in the back of Ah Lan’s neck flickered slightly, instantly conveying his thoughts to the intelligent home system.

The originally pale blue walls instantly transformed into a tranquil forest.

Tall trees with lush leaves, sunlight filtering through the foliage scattering mottled light and shadow, the breeze gently brushing by, leaves swaying lightly, even the sound of birdsong and streams could be heard.

Even the air would change, beginning to emanate the fresh scent of soil and grass, as if being in nature.

This holographic technology combined with virtual technology made it difficult to discern any flaws, even with the naked eye.

The environment could even change with the alterations in Ah Lan’s pupils.

Ah Lan issued another command, switching the scene to a vibrant underwater world.

On the walls, in the three-dimensional scene displayed, colorful schools of fish swam leisurely, coral reefs flashing alluring colors in the light and shadows.

In the distance, a giant whale slowly swam by, emitting a deep call.

A switching command transmitted again, and the walls instantly turned into a vast Starry Sky.

Against a black background, countless stars dotted the sky, the Milky Way stretching across the sky like a magnificent light belt.

Occasionally, a meteor would streak across the starry sky, leaving a brief, dazzling flash.

During this time, Ah Lan could also zoom in on a certain galaxy to observe the orbital trajectory of planets up close.

The room temperature also automatically adjusted during this period.

No commands needed to be issued; the intelligent system would adjust the room’s brightness, temperature, and humidity according to the emotional fluctuations transmitted by the chip in the back of his neck.

At this time, Ah Lan came to the corner of the room.

Here stood a 3D printing pod, shaped like an oval blue and white capsule.

He lightly tapped on the screen of the printing pod, which displayed selectable printing items.

The Moon Eclipse Clan has developed to the point where basic living supplies are no longer obtained through purchase.

The 3D printing pod can meet all basic living needs, from simple clothing, toothbrushes, shoes, to various life tools, all living supplies can be completed in just over ten seconds, with a database of numerous selectable style templates.

Next to the printing pod stood a smart wardrobe, with transparent doors, where clothes were neatly hung inside, all made using the 3D printing pod.

The smart screen on the glass would automatically recommend outfits for Ah Lan based on his schedule.

For example, attending high-level meetings of the Moon Eclipse Clan would recommend more formal attire.

At home, it’s usually casual wear, or directly wearing game suits.

Having printed a brand new game suit as a standby, Ah Lan came to the center of the room, with a wave of his hand, the projection lamp on the ceiling lit up, casting lights and shadows to form a virtual office desk in the room.

The ground automatically raised a chair fitting to his body.

Ah Lan began recording discoveries in the virtual game, as well as proposals for the Moon Eclipse Clan’s future development direction.

Especially the Eternal Tower, which might provide significant support once the Star Network enters the game.

While Ah Lan was fully engrossed in work, the projection lamp on the ceiling automatically changed, and subsequently, a child’s figure condensed beside Ah Lan.

Realizing that the Star Network had arrived, Ah Lan immediately stood up:

"Star Network."

"No need to report, I am already aware of the situation with the Eternal Tower. I watched your entire live broadcast; you just didn’t notice that I was always in your live room."

Upon hearing this, Ah Lan appeared somewhat excited and said:

"Star Network, what do you think of the Eternal Tower, could it potentially serve as a body to carry your consciousness?"

The Star Network nodded with a smile:

"Indeed it’s great, the Mechanical Guardian Clan has conceived many novel technological techniques, perhaps all can be realized in our hands, it even made me think of creating a Mechanical Army."

"A Mechanical Army, can you elaborate?" Hearing this, Ah Lan appeared a bit puzzled.

Before this, the Star Network had clearly stated.

The development of the Moon Eclipse Clan centers around the three core systems: Life Soul, Star Vein, and Body Refining, where technological weapons could only be used as auxiliary in development.

The battle damage of a Mechanical Army system is very high, the Star Network’s initial thought was to apply it based on the situation.

After all, players can be reshaped after death, but mechanical creations produced on assembly lines can only recover a part after death. They must be repaired through complex processes, or melted down into metal resources for reuse.

Faced with the inquiry, the Star Network nodded:

"Suppose in the future I participate in external combat as a Player Corps Commander; this is indeed a good development path, but compared to the Black Tide Commander, I have a significant shortcoming, which is the obvious delay in issuing commands."

"This delay cannot be resolved by any means for now, unless there emerges in the future a Special Life Soul capable of mental connection, which can directly present my thoughts in the commanded player’s mind. Before that, no matter what orders I issue, they require the commanded player to understand before they can execute them."

"The command capability of the Earth Thought Evil Spirit, as well as the data analysis ability of the Evil Eye, are continuously improving as they grow, my advantage will gradually shrink, and in the future, the command delay will be my greatest shortcoming, even a fatal flaw when resisting the Black Tide."
