Monsters Are Coming

Chapter 1344 - 350: Others Seek Refuge, You Come to Play Games? (Part 4)

Newbie players should not develop a dependency mindset, thinking that as long as they have a need, the official team must find a way to satisfy it.This is also one of the core reasons why Qi Sheng never cares about the demands of forum players.

...

Just as forum players were having heated discussions about the update content.

The various races on Earth had already blown up.

The long-awaited player qualification distribution had finally reopened.

Even before the countdown for the distribution ended, discussions had already started on the forums of each race.

Some groups even started online programs, where several experts gathered to analyze how many player qualifications are likely to be issued this round based on the recent situation of the Moon Eclipse Clan.

Whether the prediction is accurate or not isn’t important; what’s important is to seize this round of qualification distribution to attract a wave of traffic with topics that netizens care about most.

It’s been over two years since Monster World was released.

But most players are still without player qualification, eagerly hoping that this distribution will allow them to realize their dreams.

On that day, the cyber god-worship website made by a certain player was crowded with netizens from various races.

There were two Cyber Gods being worshiped.

One is the Supreme God in Monster World, "Emperor Zhao."

In the eyes of the players, Emperor Zhao always collects rewards by chopping at the ankles, being extremely stingy.

High-level equipment can be sold at cabbage prices to Emperor Zhao.

But there’s no doubt that Brother Di Zhao stands at the pinnacle of Monster World.

He’s the strongest God at the cyber level.

The other one is the Star Network of the Moon Eclipse Clan.

On this site, players can light virtual incense and offer virtual fruits and other offerings in the Void to pray to the God for qualifications.

In the eyes of many players, cyber god-worship is incomprehensible.

They think such behavior is too abstract.

But it doesn’t stop a large number of netizens eager to obtain player qualifications from participating.

In the eyes of these players, even if it only increases their chances by 0.0001%, cyber worship is worth it.

After all, the offerings are free, just click the mouse to send them.

The cyber god-worship site also has a chat group where you can see netizens from different IP addresses having heated discussions.

The countdown for the qualification distribution hadn’t ended yet, and the cyber worship scene of players was extremely lively.

At the top of the site, messages kept refreshing about certain netizens donating offerings to the gods.

During this period, a player discovered a strange incident and then took a screenshot and sent it to the discussion area.

"This confuses me, why are netizens from the Destiny Clan (Dragon Sparrow Clan) also coming to our site to cyber-worship for qualifications? Didn’t they just recently join the Earth Alliance? What do they need player qualifications for, what are they planning? (screenshot.jpg)."

"Whoa, stinking outsiders just came to Earth and are already fighting us for qualifications. I demand to ban their accounts, who allowed them to grab qualifications. I demand we attack the Destiny Clan and wipe them out, these stinking outsiders have no shame, they must be dealt with by annihilation, target them with the outer space rail cannon, fire!"

"Huh? The stinking outsiders are cutting in line? Just joined the alliance and already want to grab player qualifications, giving them face, I demand they ban three generations of accounts first, and only consider letting the Destiny Clan try some after other players have grabbed the qualifications, I hate queue-cutting behavior, who was talking about living in harmony with outsiders before? Now everyone knows it’s urgent, right, adding 30,000 competitors out of thin air."

"These 30,000 people joining made my chance of getting a qualification drop by 0.0...0.1%, indeed if they are not of our race, they have a different heart, this news really annoys me, just came to Earth but don’t build their homeland, don’t learn Earth’s history, what are they doing playing Monster World, simply audacious."

"No, you bunch of stinking outsiders, where do you get the nerve to speak ill of others calling them stinking outsiders, aren’t you also originally from outside, it’s unclear what’s in your heads, although I also hate these queue-cutting Destiny Clan people, you are also cutting in line."

"Concluded, the one upstairs is definitely a dumb aboriginal from the Human Clan, holding onto the ancestral household registration tighter than a family heirloom, always boasting we were here first, too proud, if you are really that strong why not print the words ’Earth Orthodox’ on your ID card, what’s so great about being early, the dinosaurs ruled the Earth once and now they’re still museum exhibits, get lost, you aboriginal superiority dogs, your dad was born on Earth, so he’s an Earthling, kneel if you don’t agree (Earth Alliance ID screenshot.jpg)."

...

Soon, the news of the Destiny Clan participating to grab player qualifications spread online.

This left netizens of various races very confused.

Generally, after a new race officially joins the Earth Alliance, they first experience a period of cultural shock, followed by an adaptation period.

This requires a gradual process.

Whether to connect to the virtual world requires some preparation time, and some groups even voluntarily refuse the Star Network provided by the Moon Eclipse Clan.

Commonly, they spend several years slowly taking root in reality.

The generation that initially comes into contact with the network also finds it hard to chat with Earth netizens.

Differences in culture, history, and other aspects make it difficult for newly connected alien forces to understand even popular memes online, as they communicate in entirely different dimensions.

Wanting to effortlessly use online terms like other Earth Alliance races requires a long cultural integration process.

Only after the next generation is born does full integration into the Earth Alliance typically occur.

It’s like the new generation of various races now declaring themselves Earthlings online; in their eyes, they are locals who have been exposed to the Star Network since childhood and can understand everything instantly.

But for the Destiny Clan, jumping into the Star Network so soon after joining, without even memorizing the Alliance Charter, is a first for wide-eyed netizens.
