Chapter 1888: Another Round Of Grandstanding.
He struggled to get out of his maintenance pod as he thought about his experience. For the past six months, he had been in the game. When he returned to real life, only a few hours had passed. This caused his brain to struggle in figuring out what was going on.
It is a normal situation that he has experienced before when he had elaborate dreams. Waking up is usually accompanied by a sense of confusion and loss.
The Heavenly Corporation had warned that it would only get worse the more time they spent in the game. Eventually, the real world will become unappealing to them.
Not many people care about that loss. Not after people became Tier 1 and could actually use their power in God's Domain in the real world. He certainly doesn't care about it now that he has finally received the highly coveted in-game currency.
The recollection of the divine gold he received made him check his status again. When he saw the line that allows him to convert divine gold into divine crystals, he sighed in relief.
Then his eyes lit up in anticipation. "What should I get with it? I can get so much. I can improve my stats. I can buy anything in God's Domain and on earth with it."
There were many things he could do with divine crystals, but he decided that he had to acquire what he came to God's Domain for first. So he used the interface in his mind to purchase the elixir for his mother.
Having done so, he began to laugh. He was laughing because he was happy. He had no doubt that the elixir would be real because the Heavenly Corporation has fulfilled even more difficult promises.
He can still remember when he just became Tier 1. He had rushed offline to see if what they had said was real.
But their fears were unwarranted because the fight just never happened. Something was always going wrong during their preparations.
An important piece of equipment would stop working, a dangerous machine got damaged, an explosive ammunition exploded in transportation, or an important personnel died, or a president that swore to bring down the Heavenly Corporation died while choking on their food.
All of these coincidences made them fear the Heavenly Corporation but incapable of doing anything about their fears. They still didn't give up, though. If anything, all of these coincidences showed the world just how dangerous the Heavenly Corporation was.
Many governments, corporations, and people who were on the sidelines before decided to stop holding back. They decided to take action together.
Taylor was worried when the world government was reformed with the sole goal of subduing the Heavenly Corporation.
The world government was formed by a certain scientist politician named Jason. It was disbanded after his death because world leaders were greedy for power.
They couldn't decide on who to replace him, so they broke up the world government. But now, something has made them more afraid than greedy.
They had become willing to let someone step over them if they could stop the Heavenly Corporation from making it possible for everyone to step over them. This way, they would have a choice over who steps over them.
He was afraid because of that conviction. But it turned out that his fears that God's Domain would be stopped were unwarranted because many of the world leaders who attended the summit died of food poisoning or peacefully in their sleep.
All of the presidents and those who were in charge of their organizations died. Only their aids, vices, and second in command didn't die. These ones that were spared got the message loud and clear. They disbanded the world government and ran back home with their tails in between their legs.
