Chapter 249 Ritual

“In elementary games, an ordinary player is unable to project the strength of the game into the real world. It will be sealed by the strength of the King of Gods.”

“This type of seal is known as a ‘lock’. Only after entering an intermediate or high-level game will a very small number of players be able to come into contact with the method to unlock the ‘lock’.”

“As the game progressed, the method to unlock the ‘lock’ was gradually grasped by high-level players. Those high-level players began to bring the strength of the game into the real world.”

“For various purposes, these methods to unlock the ‘lock’ gradually spread among ordinary players.”

“It is very dangerous for ordinary people to obtain such extraordinary strength. Therefore, the Federation has always been controlling it. Generally speaking, ordinary people need to go through various investigations and tests by the Federation before they are allowed to unlock the ‘lock’.”

“However, the Federation is unable to control everyone. In addition, the Federation’s control over the game has gradually weakened over the past few years. There are still many people in this world who can unlock the ‘lock’.”

“Currently, many organizations and even large-scale game guilds can unlock the ‘lock’ through a special ritual.”

As he spoke, Mo Jiawei lowered his voice once again.

“Our North River Heavy Industry has also mastered a method to unlock the lock. We have also privately trained many high-level players who have unlocked the ‘lock’. The highest among them is already able to unlock a Tier 2 lock, reaching the strength of Tier 2 materialization.”

“By the way, the ability to map reality in the game is known as materialization. To a certain extent, the strength of the player’s materialization also represents the strength of the player.”

Fang Heng’s pupils constricted.

Materialization!

Alright!

Fang Heng had long realized that he could materialize.

In the real world, his physical fitness was much higher than before.

So all of this was related to the ritual!

So, the mark on the back of his hand was just a simple ritual symbol?

But the strange thing was since he had already held the ritual long ago, why did the mark on the back of his hand appear a few hours ago?

“Will there be side effects from the ritual?”

“I’m not sure. There are many types of rituals. It depends on the origin of your friend’s ritual, which high-level game world it came from, and whether the ritual has been modified.”

“Fang Heng, I have an uncle who is very familiar with this aspect. I suggest you come to my place and ask my uncle in person.”

Fang Heng quickly did some mental calculations and nodded, “Yes, I’d like to meet him as soon as possible.”

“No problem. My uncle is currently at home. I’ll contact him later.”

“Thanks.”

Fang Heng was a little worried.

At this stage, he had to figure out what was the ritual he had undergone.

If he was lucky and the ritual didn’t have any flaws, that would be a good thing.

Wait a minute…

What about the zombie clone?

Wasn’t his talent attribute the zombie clone!

If his game ability was brought into the real world, then why couldn’t he see a zombie clone in the real world?

Fang Heng suddenly raised his head and asked, “The materialization you mentioned just now, can it inherit the talents or skills in the game?”

“Yes, it can.”

Mo Jiawei nodded, “But this can only be achieved by holding a higher-level ritual. I don’t know much about the specifics, so I need to ask my uncle.”

“I remember that my uncle mentioned before that Tier 1 materialization can unlock the basic attribute, Tier 2 materialization can unlock the passive skills in the game, Tier 3 or Tier 4 can unlock the talent abilities…”

Mo Jiawei tried to recall what he heard, “Oh right, there will be strong fluctuations during the ritual. The Federation has been monitoring these fluctuations.”

“Tier 1 is still fine where there are ways to hide the past. The higher the level of the ritual, the stronger the fluctuations during the ritual. From Tier 2 onwards, it’s very difficult to hide.”

Listening to Mo Jiawei’s explanation, Fang Heng suddenly thought of many things.

If he could use his talent ability in the real world and summon a zombie clone… He instantly became excited.

Alright, summoning the Tyrant was still a distant dream. First, he had to confirm which level he was in.

Fang Heng lowered his head and opened the game log to check.

Passive skills…

Bloodline of the low-level vampires!

Night vision!

After he went back, he would find a dark corner and try to see if he could use the night vision ability that he had inherited in the real world.

At that time, he would be able to confirm if he had mastered Tier 2 materialization.

“Fang Heng, holding a ritual is a very troublesome matter. Ever since the Federation issued the ban, many players who have advanced into high-level games are unwilling to do so.”

“Why?”

“On one hand, such high-level players spend most of their time in the game. Strength in the real world doesn’t have much attractiveness to them.”

“In addition, the ritual requires a lot of resources and energy, but there’s no substantial increase in strength in the game.”

Mo Jiawei spread his hands. “How should I put it? I feel that if we reach their level, our lives will be centred around the game.”

Fang Heng pondered for a moment.

He felt that Mo Jiawei’s words made sense.

If they were to stay in the real world, they would still be under the control of the Federation, and after entering the game, as long as one’s strength reached a certain level, even the Federation could not do anything to them.

In the real world, many fugitives chose to avoid being chased, choosing to enter the King of Gods’ game without using the game cabin and staying in the game.

Fang Heng now spent a lot of time in the game every day.

However…

Fang Heng raised his head and said, “But if it’s like that saying, the game reflects reality, then it’s different.”

Mo Jiawei was stunned.

“Let’s talk about the saying that the apocalypse is coming. Is the end of the world real?”

“I’m even less sure about that.”

Mo Jiawei smiled bitterly, “Our family is a bit polarized about this saying. Many people don’t believe it, and they don’t want to invest too much in the game.”

“Great-grandfather believes that. He always said that the best way to avoid the apocalypse is to enter the game. Staying in the game is safer than staying in the real world.”

“Fang Heng, our family has been secretly developing in the Wasteland Apocalypse District 2, District 3 and District 5 over the years. We’ve bought many gaming companies in the open as well as in the dark, just in

case.”

“If the apocalypse comes, our family can also have a way out. Unfortunately, after investing so much money, the effect hasn’t been very good. I’m also thinking about whether we can develop in District 8 of the new server.”

Fang Heng was silent for a moment.

He took a deep breath and smiled bitterly.

Alright, it’s going to be tough again.

He had originally thought that he could be idle for a while.

Originally, his goal was very simple. He just wanted to become the biggest tenant of Server 8…

Now, facing the unknown danger, Fang Heng believed that all he could do was constantly strengthen himself.

He wanted to build a super stable shelter with an unlimited number of enhanced zombie teams…
