(Thanks for the 100 VIP points from 【静看风雨动世间】, thank you so much~~)
“Uh— the Land’s Queen set… it sounds very powerful, wow— I want it, but sadly I can’t enter the prologue anymore, sniffle— I really should have explored more at the time… ” After reading the post, Odilia said somewhat regretfully. She thought about it for a moment, then left a comment under the post.
“Fatty, your spirit of research is commendable, but can you write the attributes of the Land’s Queen set on the post?”
Out of curiosity about what other players thought, Odilia went on to read the replies.
【Holy crap, Fatty, you actually dug out so much information!】
【Thanks, OP, I died 5 times yesterday and the game wouldn't let me in! I'm not willing to give up, I'm going to check out the set the OP mentioned today! Hopefully I can get it!】
【Ghostly! Didn't know, was shocked, I thought I was super awesome for reaching the new continent after dying 4 times, didn't know there was something even more hardcore, I wonder if I should die again to check out the Land's Queen set? Seems like I can't go back to the prologue after entering the base! Plus, farming for resources is so dog-like!】
【Finally arrived at the Starry Base, went out hunting and was beaten into a dead dog, the player says we need equipment, starting out with 5 defense points is a pain for a newbie! I strongly urge the moderator to reveal the attributes of the Land's Queen set, just the name makes me drool!】
【By the way, no one noticed the info OP updated about the yellow-skinned girl NPC? I seem to have seen her in the Starry Base, she seems to be pretty close to a female player!】
【WHAT? Close to a player? That’s not scientific!】
【Fatty, when are you coming to the Starry Base, we need players with research spirit like you!】
【Who can tell me how the monsters in this game are so tough, and how the weapons are so difficult to use?】
【Today’s club activity is a definite no-go, directly back home to the computer to check the forum, sure enough there’s new news, Fatty you’re awesome!】
【You idiots! You’ve all said so much I don’t understand, I just want to ask, how do I get into the so-called Nightmare World?】
The comments were mostly about the game, but there were also a few comments criticizing the group for going crazy, not knowing what they were talking about, and even some abusive comments.
From this forum post, Zhang Xingyu got a general understanding of the students’ thoughts on the Nightmare World.
First, the majority of players entering the Nightmare World had an initial impression of it as 【This is a very powerful virtual game world, don’t know which company made it, but it’s probably on Miracle Island, possibly some research institute, although I’m not happy about being put into the game without my consent, but because the dream game’s realism is too strong, it feels like the game of the future, so most players are very fascinated by it.】
Besides that, their basic impression of the game was 【This is a super hardcore game, very difficult, very few hints, not only is there a death limit, but you can’t completely cancel the pain level! It’s a real rip-off!
However, apart from these, the rest are all advantages, such as the super-perfect real game experience, intelligent NPCs, huge world background, amazing giant monsters, etc., plus you can play at night while you’re sleeping, it won’t affect your daily studies at all!】
Here, Zhang Xingyu noticed a point, namely, the school where Odilia was, called St. Dance Academy, seemed very special, the technological level was very high, for example, this kind of "full virtual" gaming technology, this world should not have, but the school students seem to think that the virtual technology happening in St. Dance Academy is not strange, and at the same time speculate that it may be a research institute doing research.
In addition, from what Zhang Xingyu observed by possessing Odilia, the students of St. Dance Academy seemed to come from all over the world, at least Zhang Xingyu had seen many people with different skin colors, and the students were used to it.
—Is it a famous academy in a developed country?
Zhang Xingyu originally thought he had crossed over to another world, after all, names like St. Dance Academy and Miracle Island had never been heard of, but Zhang Xingyu did discover some familiar country names, such as — Zhongguo, Yin Guo, Nihong, Meiguo, etc.
It seems like a parallel world of Earth?
Zhang Xingyu pondered a lot, after all, the situation of this world would determine the opportunities and crises Zhang Xingyu would face, as well as his attitude, when the Nightmare World surfaced.
Currently, Zhang Xingyu was being cautious about choosing players, because he didn’t know the level of technology in this world, or if there was any mysterious power — his current power was very weak, and being discovered wouldn’t be a wise choice.
Therefore, the players entering the Nightmare World were only students, not teachers, and these students had no great relationship with Odilia, for example, those familiar to Odilia, like Freesia and the cat maid, Zhang Xingyu didn’t pull them into the Nightmare World.
Of course, Zhang Xingyu’s wisest choice was to set the time for players to enter the Nightmare game to after they go to sleep at night!
Although the Nightmare Lord could easily make the players fall asleep during the day and then pull them into the Nightmare World, this would easily cause panic incidents, and if the government investigated deeply, it might find Odilia, the original player.
Playing games while sleeping would reduce the chances of something going wrong, after all, playing games while dreaming at night is more like a fantasy, and this approach wouldn’t interfere with students’ daily study time either.
