Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

WHOOSH—

With all the channel links assigned, all that was left was to wait for the appointed time for them to open and see how many people would come to take a look. Shen Fei then took the two billion Credit Points he had on him and transferred all of it into the [Ninth World] to serve as its foundational capital.

The items I have on me... there’s no rush to trade them. I’ll wait and see how things go first!

After depositing the two billion Credit Points to support the [Ninth World], Shen Fei turned his attention elsewhere. He checked the time and saw there were still a few hours left until the third inheritance of game abilities at midnight. He opened the Forum, wanting to see how everyone else was doing.

.

.

"Hey everyone, the third game ability inheritance is coming up soon!"

"What are you all planning to inherit?!"

"My game only had two inheritance options, and I’ve already used them up in the first two rounds. What do I do now?!"

Opening the currently trending thread, Shen Fei quickly started browsing. Midnight tonight was the third game ability inheritance. Although all sorts of new stories were breaking online, the threads about the inheritance were getting the most traffic. For example, some news reported that a special Barrier had formed in a certain region, making a once-accessible place impossible to enter. Other stories told of how someone saw a mountain crack open, revealing a mysterious glowing item, and people were now forming teams to lead players on a treasure hunt.

But right now, with the third inheritance just around the corner, discussions about it had the highest popularity.

WHOOSH—

Quickly scrolling through the thread, Shen Fei saw all sorts of questions about the game ability inheritance. Some were asking what ability they should choose for their third inheritance. Some were asking if any players who owned a Neutral City could take them in. There were also people asking if they could have children with their inherited female Heroes. Incredibly, a gynecologist was even crowdfunding a project to research the feasibility of having children with game characters.

In the real world, many people couldn’t find girlfriends and get married. As the rules of the game inheritance were studied more thoroughly, things were changing. In the thread, Shen Fei even saw someone trying to find a husband for their female Hero.

Furthermore, there were female players who were about to inherit even more female Heroes, adding to the large number they already had. Before the apocalypse, such game-obsessed women might not have had many suitors. But now, with more and more things being inherited, they had all become hot commodities.

"Hm?"

As he quickly browsed the threads, reading all the unexpected content, Shen Fei found it both amusing and interesting. However, he soon saw the contents of a new thread and froze.

Someone had actually posted a video.

In the video, a person was flying on a giant hammer, clad in glowing Purple Gold Battle Armor.

Beneath this video, Shen Fei saw a large number of comments that went far beyond his expectations:

"Holy crap!! Tang San!!"

"Holy crap!! Is that Divine King Tang San from *Douluo*??"

"Holy crap, aren’t all the game NPCs supposed to have run into the special regions? How did one get out??"

This thread caught Shen Fei’s attention partly because its subject was an NPC—an intelligent one at that. More importantly, he discovered from the original poster’s description that this NPC was not only communicable but also very friendly. He even asked for directions to Qing City and paid a price to buy several pre-apocalypse maps showing its detailed location.

Coming to Qing City? What for? To find his dead wife...?

Of course, Shen Fei knew of Divine King Tang San. He just hadn’t expected that this figure would actually be coming to Qing City. This immediately caught his attention. He wasn’t too worried, though. According to the poster, Tang San was still quite a distance from Qing City. Especially now that the planet had grown larger, it would take him half a day to a full day to get there, even if he could fly.

Besides, with his Invincible Defense Tower, Shen Fei wasn’t concerned about his arrival.

WHOOSH—

After finishing the thread, Shen Fei quickly closed it.

However, unbeknownst to him, someone in a mysterious place had also seen the thread about Divine King Tang San’s appearance and his inquiries about Qing City’s location. That person then predicted his route and moved to block Divine King Tang San’s path.

WHOOSH—

WHOOSH—

WHOOSH—

Time flew by, and soon, it was midnight.

During this time, Shen Fei saw his parents, his sister, Xiaohong, Yu, and the others return to the family villa. The family sat together, quietly waiting for the clock to strike twelve.

[23:59:55]

[23:59:58]

[23:59:59]

[00:00:00]

.

As the whole family watched, the time finally reached midnight.

Then, just as everyone expected, their personal panels all opened, and lines of text scrolled out:

.

[Ding!]

[Inheritance of game abilities into reality. The third item will now begin!]

[In five seconds, the inheritance for the third game ability will commence. Please select a new inheritance item from the following eight categories: Cultivation, Skills, Pets, Accessories, Equipment, Cities, Heroes, and Other. Previously inherited items cannot be selected again! Failure to choose will result in a random selection.]

[Based on your recharge amount, the selected item will be inherited all at once after being reduced by a certain ratio!]

[Ding!]

[In seven days, the inheritance for the fourth game item ability will occur.]

.

Fulfilling everyone’s expectations, every player’s personal panel opened, and the third game ability inheritance began.

This time, it was a one-time, instantaneous inheritance. For those who recharged over one million, the abilities or items of the chosen category would be fully inherited. For those who recharged less than one million, the ability would be inherited after undergoing a reduction at the same ratio as the previously inherited items.

"Skills!"

Facing the text that had appeared, Shen Fei unhesitatingly made his long-decided choice. Inheriting Sky Control was not something he could rush. Therefore, for this round, he decided to inherit his powerful Tower Master skills.

WHOOSH—

WHOOSH—

WHOOSH—

Following Shen Fei’s selection, a "Skills" tab appeared on his personal panel. The skills he had seen in the game yesterday, like "Ten Thousand Linked Bonds," "Flying Skill," and so on, all materialized within it.

Shen Fei’s Tower Master skills provided a huge boost to his Defense Towers. Although he didn’t have as many skills as some other players, his had a unique effect.

—No cost.

There was no such thing as consuming mana, Magical Power, or Spiritual Power. His Tower Master skills, though there were only ten of them and most were passive, were all free to use.

This was an advantage unique to Tower Masters...

WHOOSH—

He quickly checked the expected ability inheritance. Shen Fei’s piercing gaze remained fixed on his personal panel.

He knew there was more. This game ability inheritance day was special...

And sure enough, under his watchful gaze, lines of text soon scrolled across his personal panel once more.

[Ding...]
