Chapter 83 Whose Immortal Deity Has Logged In?

A month later.

On the planet Jinlan, in the heart of the most prosperous Jinlan main city, lies a core area spanning tens of thousands of square kilometers.

Just a month ago, this place was a very important gathering place for members of the Virtual Universe Company. But in just one month, the area was quickly demolished and transformed. The core members were moved to other places, and an extremely luxurious mansion appeared on the original site.

This extremely luxurious mansion has now been named "Lu Family Manor".

Once any core member at the domain lord level is assigned to an external post, the Virtual Universe Company will help build them a residence.

Members of ordinary primordial secret realms possess statuses comparable to those who have been granted the title of Marquis or Immortal. Lu Ming, a peerless human genius, even now holds a position above many King-level Immortals within the Virtual Universe Company.

Naturally, the Marquis Lanxin, who was in charge of building the manor, built Lu Ming's manor to be incredibly magnificent, with a scale that even surpassed that of many kings and marquises in the Jinlan Universe, in order to demonstrate his esteemed status.

At this very moment, a grand welcoming banquet is being prepared in this luxurious manor.

……

Inside the main banquet hall.

The three branch managers of the Virtual Universe Company, more than 300 feudal lords of the Jinlan Universe Kingdom, and even some of the direct subordinate generals of the Jinlan Kingdom's ruler and some powerful immortal gods from other hidden forces were all present.

Seeing that the guests had all gathered, the three leaders of the Jinlan branch first consulted with Lu Ming before walking one by one to the high platform at the front of the banquet hall.

"Everyone!" Lan Xinhou, dressed in a gorgeous purple dress and exuding an elegant and charming aura, smiled as she looked down at the many immortal gods below.

The many immortal gods below looked up with smiles, ready to listen to what the three giants would say next.

Meanwhile, many people focused their attention on the main seat, where a young domain lord dressed in crimson armor sat, and next to him was a strange immortal god as tall as a blue stone giant.

"That man, whom the three of them, including Marquis Cangwu, respectfully call the Lotus Rock King, is a powerful Immortal King who originated from the core of the virtual universe. He's actually serving as a guard for a mere Domain Lord!"

"Yes, it's incredible. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have found it hard to believe..." Many of the immortal gods present were still somewhat stunned, but the words of Lan Xinhou and the others continued to echo in the banquet hall.

"Every individual who can join the core ranks of the five major powers is a true genius among our human race!"

"However, even among peerless geniuses, there are different levels!"

"And His Highness Lu Ming, even among all the geniuses in the history of our human race, belongs to the very top tier!"

"Let us warmly welcome His Highness Lu Ming, the unparalleled genius of our human race, back to his homeland, the Golden Mist Universe Kingdom!"

Lan Xinhou, the Minister of Commerce of the Jinlan Branch, Hong Yanhou, the Minister of Military Affairs, and Cang Wuhou, the Minister of the Army, all wore extremely enthusiastic smiles, and their voices were all louder and clearer than the last.

"These three ministers are really putting in a lot of effort." King Lianyan looked at the three of them performing on stage like clowns and felt very disdainful.

"They're scared and terrified, so of course they have to put in some effort." Lu Ming just shook his head and smiled, not really paying attention.

He came here for two reasons: first, to make a name for himself in front of everyone and support the future development of the Black-Eyed Clan; and second, to reassure the three ministers.

With the monitoring system of the Virtual Universe Company in place, these three people certainly wouldn't dare to commit major crimes, but they had definitely accumulated quite a few minor mistakes, it's just that no one had dealt with them before.

And now, Lu Ming has arrived.

To put it bluntly, whether they can stay in their positions depends entirely on Lu Ming's will.

Of course, Lu Ming had no grudges against these three people, so he naturally wouldn't investigate things that we all already knew to the end.

After the welcoming banquet, Lu Ming officially took office.

After seeing Lu Ming's focused cultivation and his unwillingness to interfere in other matters, Lan Xinhou and the other two felt much more at ease and treated him with even more enthusiasm and kindness.

……

In his spare time, Lu Ming also kept his promise to his sister and came to a virtual game world.

Amodal World

This is an open-world adventure game directly promoted by Virtual Universe Company.

Because of the unique nature of the virtual universe, everything in this so-called 'Amosta' world does indeed seem incredibly real, which explains why so many players have been immersed in this world for a long time.

"Brother, last time I went to the wilderness area to PK with someone, I got utterly humiliated by a guy whose 'strength' was inferior to mine... I've already memorized his ID and guild name, you have to help me teach him a lesson later!" Above a vast continent under a blood-red sun, the brother and sister each wore a magnificent set of equipment.

Of course, Lu Xue managed to acquire a decent set of "god-tier gear" through her own leveling up and spending money on in-game purchases. Lu Ming, on the other hand, simply bought a very expensive pre-made account, whose level and equipment were in no way inferior to Lu Xue's.

"Ah Xue, aren't your level, equipment, and skills already ranked on the Heavenly Ranking? How could you be killed by a low-level player in a PK?" In the virtual game world, the account that Lu Ming inherited was dressed in a very gorgeous dark purple battle armor, and his weapon was the long spear that he always used.

"Because this guy can actually use a lot of weird and wonderful 'self-created skills', and his combat awareness is just too strong... Even though my attributes are far superior to his, I can't do anything about him!" At this point, the girl who plays the Ice Goddess in the game world is also very angry.

In the world of virtual games, being killed by someone with a higher level and better equipment is undoubtedly a great humiliation.

"Create your own skills? There are such things in this game world?" Lu Ming was a little surprised. It was the first time he had ever heard of such a thing.

"Master, the game world that Miss Xue entered was created by the direct department of Virtual Universe Company. It has a hidden rule that any ability that players can use in the real world can also be manifested in this world..." After listening to Alice's explanation, Lu Ming finally understood the reason.

While the power gained from being immersed in virtual games may be illusory, this does not mean that virtual games are entirely without merit.

Many top-tier, expensive games utilize virtual technology similar to Killspace. Some of the skills you learn in these games are applicable to the real world.

Many true "pro gamers" can even improve their physical strength and learn secret techniques simply by training in the game world.

"In essence, it's similar to Killspace... except that these game worlds are more fun and can boost a lot of people's enthusiasm." After Alice's simple explanation, Lu Ming understood the nature of games like [Amosta].

Simply put, there are two ways to become stronger in this game.

The first method is the simplest: improve your attribute panel and skill panel.

If your foundation is strong enough, your skills will naturally improve. This mainly depends on your own dedication and financial resources.

The second type is those with exceptional combat awareness.

In the game world, even ordinary Eternal Star level beings like Lu Xue possess power comparable to immortal gods, but their combat awareness and other abilities remain at the Eternal Star level.

If a true immortal god were to log into a powerful account, he would naturally be able to perfectly unleash the full potential of that top-tier account.

Lu Ming, though a domain lord in the real world, possesses combat awareness and understanding of laws comparable to an immortal god who has been granted a title.

This inherited top-tier game account can truly unleash power in the game comparable to that of an immortal god!

"Bro, I looked it up online before... Normal players mainly rely on the game engine system to guide them when using skills; we don't understand anything ourselves."

"But some professional players may have very strong physical strength or mental power, and some even have domains in the real world. When such people use the same skills to fight, their strength is far greater than ours..." In reality, peerless geniuses like Lu Ming can easily kill enemies of higher levels because of their strong understanding of the laws.

The same applies to the gaming world. Some highly skilled players, even if they are behind their opponents in level and equipment, can still defeat players with much higher base stats.

Of course, this attribute difference can't be so great that you'll be instantly killed.

"The last player I encountered could easily control the power of the world... I suspect he might be a world lord-level expert in real life, which is why he's so powerful!" Lu Xue still harbors resentment when she talks about that person.

That annoying guy not only beat her in a PK, but he also edited up their fight and posted it on the virtual network for people to watch, making her look like a ghost in front of countless strangers.

"World Lord level? Don't worry, watch how I deal with him later!" Soon, Lu Ming used the game's built-in "Battle Initiation" system to enter the player's ID and serial number, along with a "Declaration of Revenge".

"I'm going to enter the spectator system later, and I'm also going to record your battle, hehe..." Lu Xue, who had transformed into a white-haired beauty in the game, was now smiling like a cunning little fox.

"Hehe, you, fine, whatever you say!" It's just a player identity in a virtual game, so there's no real issue of being exposed.

"Another spoiled brat who's not satisfied and's brought in a master to get revenge? Fine, I'll defeat this helper you've brought in again and make you completely submit!" On the other side of the game, a player who looked like a werewolf clicked to accept the challenge nonchalantly.

Then, in a spatial shift, the two arrived at an independent dimension that resembled a killing space.

"Brother, come on, you must defeat him!" On a virtual viewing platform in the distance, Lu Xue, in the form of a beautiful girl with white hair, shouted encouragement from the side.

According to the game rules, players in the spectator system cannot enter the 'battle space', so she could only be a cheerleader on the sidelines.

"Want to defeat me? You're still a long way off!" The werewolf player was quite the character, getting into the zone in an instant and starting with trash talk, stirring up some memories that Lu Ming had buried deep in his heart.

"Is that so? Then let's give it a try!" Lu Ming grinned and raised his dark purple spear.

"Boom!" In an instant, thunder roared, lightning flashed, and black mist filled the air!

The werewolf player unleashed a unique domain skill right from the start, making a formidable impression. However, Lu Ming's account already had stronger base attributes than his opponent's, and coupled with his combat awareness and willpower, even after only a brief period of familiarizing himself with the skills, he could easily crush his opponent.

"Such strong combat awareness! Just what level of expert is this guy in real life?" The werewolf player's heart sank after only a short exchange.

This time, he met a master.

"I have to use my ultimate move, behold my Blade World!" The werewolf player unleashed his trump card, manipulating a black blade aura world to envelop Lu Ming.

For an ordinary player, this move would only cause basic area damage, but this werewolf player had extremely strong operational awareness, able to precisely control every wisp of black blade energy, and even condense it into a black 'Scythe of Death', which swept towards Lu Mingxi through the air.

"This is what they call a self-created skill? Interesting." Lu Ming smiled slightly, summoning a terrifying world of lightning as well. He then controlled the lightning to form 108 majestic lightning dragons, which charged towards the opponent one after another.

"Holy crap! What kind of move is that?!" The werewolf player's eyes widened in disbelief as he was instantly crushed into dust by the 108 lightning dragons!

"Brother, you're so cool!" Lu Xue, who was watching from a distance via the spectator system, also looked at her brother with wide, admiring eyes.

Meanwhile, in a distant other universe, a werewolf realm lord was completely speechless.

"Who is this immortal deity, daring to cause trouble in the game world? This is really..." In the real world, he had never dared to provoke an immortal deity.

I never imagined that I would be brutally killed by an immortal god in the game world this time.

"Brother, how did you do that?! That move condensed 108 lightning dragons and they could even fight together. It was so cool!" While praising her brother, Lu Xue had already used the game's built-in recording function to edit the entire battle video.

"As long as you are strong enough in the real world, you can naturally dominate in the game world as well." Lu Ming chuckled upon hearing this.

"It seems I'll have to train hard from now on!" In order to dominate the game world, Lu Xue made up her mind to focus on training for a while.

"So it seems that these virtual games launched by the human race aren't entirely useless after all," Lu Ming said with a laugh.
