Chapter 422 422: Ashen Association part 2 (End)
"The starry world tree is our origin. Each leaf on the world tree corresponds to a world. In the past, each world on the starry world tree was a separate entity, with no means of interaction. But Emperor Ashen, born from the Origin Realm, became the first being to break through the world and see the true starry world tree. Then, under the impetus of the Emperor, after hundreds of years, we finally built the Ashen tracks and trains."
"As you can see, with Ashen trains, we can roam the world tree and connect every world on it, allowing the creatures of the world tree to unite and help each other."
"It was on the basis of the Ashen trains that the subsequently established Ashen Association came into being. The Ashen Association has its own branches in each world, accepting commissions from the local inhabitants, while also publishing commissions and requests for help from other worlds. Any creature can join the Association and become an operator or valkyrie, traveling to different worlds via the Ashen trains to handle commissions or embark on adventures and explorations."
"And as for you star travelers..."
Abnos finally turned his gaze to the attentive players.
"The current channel is not yet stable. When the association conducts further research later, allowing star travelers to fully descend, all star travelers can choose a desired original world orientation at the beginning of their descent, and the association will fund the use of trains to send you to your respective worlds."
Tracks, world tree, Ashen trains, Ashen Association - these terms were thrown at the star travelers all at once. Abnos was a bit worried about whether they could accept and digest it all, and was prepared to repeat the explanation several times.
But to his surprise, just as his father said, these star travelers' comprehension ability was even stronger than he expected. Nearly all 40+ star travelers nodded thoughtfully, showing a look of realization, without needing him to say more.
Indeed, for players, these were all very easy to understand.
Large-scale online games have many servers, and now these different worlds are equivalent to different servers. And in the setting of the game, there is both high technology and magic and special abilities, just like civilizations in the universe are definitely not homogeneous.
Players who like a sense of technology can go to the corresponding tech-oriented worlds, while those who like special abilities and magic can go to magical civilizations.
And later, because of the setting of Ashen trains, it means that the player's servers can be interconnected in the later stages, and they don't have to worry about not being able to meet again after choosing different servers.
"Dam bro, this setting is great. After all, the previous Fallen Chronicles 1 & 2 were single-player, equivalent to each player being an independent world. I was wondering, since Fallen Chronicles 3 is going to be an online game, how will they handle this setting? If they forcibly put all players into one world, it would feel a bit like eating the book. Now it's perfect, preserving the setting of multiple worlds while also conforming to online gaming! A perfect transformation!"
"So the seasons 1 and 2 that my grandparents' generation played were actually different worlds on the world tree? And our story in season 3 is about us, as the younger generation, returning to these worlds hundreds of years later?"
"We can now truly inherit the mantle of the 'first generation' star travelers!"
"By the way, does anyone else feel like the term Emperor Ashen sounds a bit familiar?"
"I know this one! I looked it up. It refers to the player who first cleared the game sixty or seventy years ago when it was released. They were very famous on the forums back then. Now it seems Alliance has included them as an easter egg and memorial!"
"Using players as easter eggs, Alliance company really makes me cry!"
And just as her father said, such a boring and tedious project was actually engaging and even invigorating for the star travelers.
For example, once a star traveler committed a violation or gave birth to evil desires, the system would immediately detect it and impose restraints and limitations.
As for how to detect evil desires, this was Lena's design. After all, as a succubus race, she had extremely proficient abilities in the area of desire.
The final test item was combat.
Some low-level experimental miasma monsters that they had prepared in advance appeared in front of the star travelers, and the two sides began to fight.
After the battles hundreds of years ago, the miasma was not completely sealed by Father, but was preserved as part of the world.
Father and Aunt Lilith joined forces to finally create the miasma ecology of the world tree, greatly reducing the contamination of the miasma. Miasma monsters, as a manifestation of power, continued to exist.
Whether star travelers or native creatures, they could absorb miasma power by eliminating miasma monsters, enhancing their own strength and level.
And the advantage of star travelers was...
Mina turned her gaze to the battlefield.
The closed beta players were not all combat experts, and soon some players died in battle. But after a while, from the original body cabin of the train, the prepared star traveler original body containers opened again, and a new body sat up - it was the player who had just died.
Resurrection mechanism.
In essence, it was changing the shell body. The star traveler chip would bind the star traveler's mental will. Upon death, some data would be lost, but the original body's power could be stored. When using a new body, they could directly return to their original power and level.
Of course, this technology was not yet mature.
One difficulty was the mass production of star traveler original bodies. Otherwise, star travelers would require an extremely long resurrection time. She still needed to continue researching and improving. The second was that the inheritance of the chips would sometimes go wrong and also needed to be corrected.
The journey of exploring "star travelers" was still very long. Father and Mother had already pointed out the path and direction for them.
The rest...
It was for them to take over and continue forward along the path of their parents.
