Chapter 340 338: A Virtual Reality Game Called Marvel

Rimuru looked at Thanos and smiled, "Then I'll go first. The next time we meet, my subordinates will be pulling down your main city!"

Perhaps the contest of equals with Rimuru piqued Thanos's interest, stirring some of his past feelings.

A rare smile actually appeared on Thanos's face. "You are very confident. However, I will not lose either!"

"Then let us wait and see!"

As Rimuru spoke, he directly transformed into specks of light and disappeared in front of Thanos.

Thanos did the same, quickly disappearing along with his throne.

Marvel Universe.

The Last Continent.

Rimuru, who descended on the east side of the continent, directly consumed ten White chess pieces, which is one billion ounces of energy, to establish a protective barrier, enclosing the entire eastern territory within the barrier.

This Last Continent was jointly created by Rimuru and Thanos.

At the beginning of its creation, a rule was written that even the two of them could not break—

On this land, all the energy they could use originated from their respective chess pieces. Using any extra energy would be considered an automatic surrender!

Now, Rimuru used ten White chess pieces to set up the barrier, and Thanos could not peer into what was happening inside the barrier.

Unless he consumed more energy than Rimuru used!

But if he did that, Rimuru would also be able to sense it.

Energy, for both of them, was extremely precious.

The waste of any single chess piece could lead to the collapse of the entire situation, and neither of them would do such a boring thing.

"Ciel, I'm leaving the rest to you!"

Ciel, with her silver-white hair, separated from Rimuru's body.

Ciel casually grabbed fifty chess pieces.

"Establish the following rules for this land—"

"① Any creature from the West Continent that steps onto this land will be displayed as a red name and will appear on the mini-map."

"② Divided by combat power, from the lowest 'Ordinary Person' to the highest 'Earth-level' into 100 levels. Level 30 is the limit for ordinary people, requiring a job change to upgrade; Level 60 is a watershed, above which is a realm that only a few can advance into, belonging to high-level combat power; Level 100 is the highest Earth-level; killing red-named units will grant experience and money rewards. When experience is sufficient, one will automatically advance to the next level."

"③ Centered on the main city, radiating outwards, the closer to the main city, the more the enemy unit's level will be reduced."

"④ Units cannot be attacked unless the towns around the main city are completely removed."

"⑤ Players and ordinary civilians cannot attack each other unless they violate the law and become red-named."

"⑥ Player bodies are digitized; injuries and negative effects appear in the form of data and will not cause damage to the body or mind."

"⑦ On this land, everything created by players and NPCs will be simplified into corresponding programs. With blueprints, sufficient materials, and the appropriate level of crafting skill, one can create directly. Crafting time can be offset by consuming game currency."

"⑧ Establish a complete ecological and energy cycle for this land. When enemy units are killed, their energy will be automatically intercepted by this World. After skills and energy weapons are released, their energy will return to the World."

"⑨ After game currency, weapons, and items are recycled, their energy will return to the World's origin."

"⑩ Currency used to purchase game currency and items can be converted into energy origin."

Seeing that Ciel consumed fifty billion ounces of energy just by setting a few simple rules, Rimuru immediately felt immense heartache.

You don't know the cost of living until you run a household!

Next.

Ciel continued to consume a large amount of energy, transforming the geographical ecology of the East Continent.

The core points were:

① Facilitate offense and defense;

② Various resources, easy for one's own side to utilize, increasing the difficulty for the opposing side;

③ Manually set up guiding terrain to encourage enemy units to gather. For example, convenient for camping, getting water, fewer level restrictions, etc. And these guiding terrains are all convenient for our players to conquer.

When Rimuru saw Ciel was about to consume energy to create cities and fortresses for players, he immediately stopped this "prodigal woman's" crazy actions.

Still creating cities and fortresses for players?

Is she implying there's too much energy to use?

At Rimuru's strong insistence, Ciel, half-believing, set all the surrounding land as wasteland.

Except for the core city outlines, everything was very energy-efficient.

Want a good house?

Build it yourself!

After all, "farming" is also a type of gameplay!

Want to get a safe barrier?

Buy it with game currency! How can you get stronger without spending money?

No money to spend?

Then just be a dedicated grinder!

No money and don't want to grind too much?

Brother Ma: Create happiness with heart, no money

Brother Dong: I'm sorry, you're not my brother!

"To motivate every player, let's set the basic attributes of each body to elite special forces level."

"When coming to a game World, you definitely want to experience something different from the real World."

"The leveling up effects must be flashy."

"Oh, right, we can design good-looking skins. Skins can also increase certain attributes, but they need to be bought with money."

"When selecting people, be sure to choose veteran gamers and find some streamers with good gaming reputations. This way, we can quickly build a reputation and encourage more players to become addicted, cough cough, to get involved!"

"When creating NPCs, create a few more handsome guys and beautiful girls. If players spend money to send gifts, they can increase the NPC's favorability."

"It's best if it can bring some beneficial influence to reality, for example, the design of certain weapons, items, and products can trigger a brainstorm in the player's World. This will encourage more intelligent talents to join."

It's not that simple to defeat Thanos.

Rimuru's initial thought was to rely on Earth, with the talent pool of the entire human World as a backing.

Once all the basic conditions were set, Ciel began to set up professions.

The Marvel Universe, this is truly a melting pot Universe, almost any profession can be supported.

Except for the "Saint" necessary for resurrection, Rimuru had no intention of consuming energy to create anything else.

But even so, Rimuru consumed a large number of energy chess pieces; it's important to note that she hasn't resurrected anyone yet.

NPCs are still necessary; you can't just let players start from "zero" and "climb the tree," otherwise, this game would probably have died out long ago.

Seeing the semblance of a Saint, a nostalgic gleam flickered in Rimuru's eyes.

"Let's start resurrecting our former friends from Marvel!"

"At the very least, the members of the Avengers need to be resurrected first!"

"The pain of the past World destruction should be fully retained; pain is also motivation."

"The members of the Avengers are all beings who are good at creating miracles!"
