“What about modern weapons? Why don’t the indigenous people of Terra Nova use it?” Leo asked, as his question made both Raya and Raven feel uncomfortable.

If they were not contract bound to answer all of his doubts, they would under no circumstance reveal this information, however, currently they had no other option but to comply.

“Of-course we have many modern weapons under our arsenal, some that are way more powerful than the nuclear weapons on Earth, however, the weapons that we wield are still not the strongest or most destructive forces in the universe….

While on Earth, a mere human can never hope to replicate the strength of a nuclear missile, within the rainbow stream, a Grandmaster mage can cast a spell which is as powerful as a nuclear missile, destroying an entire city with one attack.

However, a Grandmaster Mage is nowhere close to the strongest being in the universe.

Above the Grandmaster stage lies the Transcendent stage, and for beings in this realm, modern weapons are nothing but children’s play-things.

Above the Transcendent stage lies the demi-god stage, a power level where beings can destroy entire planets with a single move if they wish to.

And above the Demi-God stage lies the fabled God stage…. And let me just tell you this…. We do have gods in this universe” Raya said, as Leo felt the blood move down from his brain and towards his feet, as he felt cold all over his body.

Just entering the ‘Master’ stage was difficult enough for him as a player, however, little did he know that the master stage was not even considered anything impressive when viewed from a universal scale.

Just what was a master to a god? Probably nothing more than an ant…. And hence Leo felt shivers running down his spine to even imagine such beings of power.

“So it’s not like we do not possess modern weapons, but it’s just that modern weapons are irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

The only people that modern weapons can intimidate are the bottom dwellers who don’t have the skills to fight back against them. However, at the real stage where fates of nations and planets are decided, modern weapons become meaningless” Raya concluded, as Leo finally understood as to why Terra Nova Online was a medieval style world.

It was a medieval style world because the inhabitants there chose to live this way, as they genuinely believed that living a technology free life was to live a happy life and also because modern weapons were irrelevant in their society.

With planets being ruled by beings far more powerful than the most powerful weapons in existence, the rule makers no longer depended on them to stay in power.

“To preserve the spirit of technology in-case we need it someday, we have exactly 2 planets within the rainbow stream where technology is allowed to thrive and one of them is the headquarters of the Universal Government. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Most Arc Ships are produced there and if you ever visit that planet you will see a futuristic world unlike any other.

However, most planets within the rainbow stream are medieval, so unless you join the Universal Government, your future will look like the game Terra Nova Online” Raven added, as Leo now knew one more bit of information about the new world that he was headed into.

With his previous doubts now clarified, Leo gestured for Raven to continue with his story, as he now understood the context of the world he was heading into.

“Because of your actions in Terra Nova Online, the game balance has started to break.

You see… you are not the only planet from outside the rainbow stream to have their inhabitants migrated to planet Terra Nova.

The game Terra Nova Online has been played by many civilizations aside from you, and all of them have played the game as a team.

The game is designed in a way which promotes guild work and team work. Because the future of most players is to join big guilds, or work in small teams for employment.

Solo gameplay is not encouraged 2 years into the game, however, your actions as a solo player are inspiring the masses to follow your lead and shift away from the guild oriented model that we wish for them to conform to.

While your individual performance has been spectacular, it’s now reaching a point where you are breaking the balance of the game and the people in charge are not too thrilled about this scenario.

Hence, for the next 6 months, we want you to no-longer bring out the persona of ‘TheBoss’ to public light.

We naturally understand that you have a Barony to run and NPC’s you are connected to, so you can’t disappear completely.

However, for the next six months we are going to have to put a leveling cap on you and prevent you from making any public moves.

You may not leave the premises of your Royal Manor within Crest-Hill Barony for the next 6 months and you may not accept any mission or quest during the same.

That is the austerity measure that we are imposing on you, to prevent you from destroying the balance of the game–” Raven said, as he finally explained to Leo what his penalty was going to be and the reason behind why they were imposing it.

The penalty was nothing personal against Leo, but it was being enforced to make sure that Leo’s actions did not encourage more people to go solo.

The investors behind this game were hoping for nice guild workers when they arrived on planet Terra Nova and did not want Leo to screw that up.

“Of-course, since the people in power don’t want you to suffer a loss, in addition to the information you are getting from us today, you will also be compensated fairly for the gaming time that you are losing….” Raya added, as once again a bright smile beamed on her face.
