"After calculating all possibilities in detail, I chose to lead the Moon Eclipse Clan to follow the High-dimensional Gods and serve their will, as this is the only hope against the Black Tide."

"So the Moon Eclipse Clan is laying out the Monster World for survival."

"And we... including all races of the Earth Alliance, are just pawns in the war game of the High-dimensional Gods."

It looked at Yu Chuan, its gaze as sharp as a torch:

"Don't feel ashamed to be a pawn; this is the most realistic survival choice. You can even regard it as a supreme opportunity encountered by all races of the Earth Alliance. Such opportunities, even those races possessing Rule-level Powers, find sweet and seek after, yet are beyond reach."

The Star Network snapped its fingers, and the scene switched again, presenting to Yu Chuan the warfare over the Atlantic Ocean.

Seeing the content of the scene, Yu Chuan suddenly realized this was the previous invasion event that shocked the entire Earth Alliance.

Only this time, the incident quickly subsided.

The external speculation was that the descending forces retreated voluntarily after witnessing the powerful technology of the Moon Eclipse Clan.

But the next words from the Star Network gave him a completely different answer.

"Before the Black Tide invasion event you encountered, Earth had also faced a world-ending war crisis; the projected images are the exploratory attacks before the Alien Race descended on Earth."

"You might wonder why this war ended silently... The truth is, we stopped an Earth catastrophe through an entertainment-like war."

The images advanced, constantly divided, presenting different scenes of players streaming their arrival in the Spirit Breath World.

"We used the player powers granted by the High-dimensional Gods, built a Teleportation Array in the Monster World, went to the Spirit Breath World that was about to invade Earth, and solved the descent crisis in the simplest way, while the force wanting to invade Earth at that time was the Spirit Breath Clan."

These words were too shocking, leaving Yu Chuan stunned.

The Spirit Breath campaign was very popular on the forums at that time, and although he hadn't yet obtained Player Qualification, he closely followed the progression of the campaign.

Players entered the Spirit Breath World in a descending stance and opposed the local forces.

The entire event could be described as thrilling, allowing many players to earn a large amount of sacrificial power.

It even gave birth to the "Little Mage," an enemy of the entire people.

Unexpectedly, the trans-world war in this game actually resolved the real-world invasion crisis.

At this moment, he suddenly understood what the Star Network meant by serving the High-dimensional Gods.

The power bestowed by the High-dimensional Gods to players allows them to escape Earth's harsh environment, and even the shackles of their life form, gaining infinite growth potential.

And this part of the power can affect reality.

On the brink of being killed by the Black Tide Demonic Spirits, he received the feedback of player power, confirming this point.

If not for the player power's blessing, he would have already perished under the devouring of the Black Tide Demonic Spirits.

All the questions connected in his mind.

Including the obvious BUGs that occurred with the Teleportation Array during the Spirit Breath campaign, leading to frequent packet loss issues.

Thinking about it now, it's because the Moon Eclipse Clan used Monster World's resources to lay out Space Channels, with many unresolved technical issues.

But at that time, the situation was urgent, and the Moon Eclipse Clan couldn't wait.

If the Spirit Breath Clan's invasion couldn't be stopped, Earth would face an unprecedented trans-world war.

This is why the Moon Eclipse Clan couldn't use the game system to issue announcements and opted to open a thread on the forums, hoping players would participate in the invasion war in the Spirit Breath World dungeon.

So as the Star Network said, the player body granted by the High-dimensional Gods is a chance.

No need for sacrifice, no need for compromise; as long as you become stronger in the game, you can gain the power to resist the Black Tide.

Understanding the logic behind it also explains why the Star Network would choose to pledge allegiance to the High-dimensional Gods.

Continuing to listen to the Star Network's recounting of events related to the Monster World, Yu Chuan remained in a state of shock.

After the narrative finished, the Star Network's expression turned serious:

"Yu Chuan, I hope that with your player power feedback, you will continue to keep this secret, both for the Earth Alliance and for the Human Clan Federation you are loyal to. When the secret can be revealed, it waits for the will of the High-dimensional Gods... What is certain is that on the day the Black Tide formally invades, all members of the Earth Alliance, like you, will receive the treatment of player power feedback in reality."

Taking a deep breath, Yu Chuan nodded solemnly:

"Understood."

Just after agreeing to keep the secret, Yu Chuan thought of a problem.

His job at the Arctic Station requires him to return every six months for a comprehensive physical examination.

After receiving player power feedback, his body has already undergone significant changes.

Once he undergoes the examination, the issues will inevitably be discovered.

"Don't worry; I know what you're concerned about. The medical examination equipment used by the Human Clan Federation are all connected to the Star Network. I can modify the data at any time to make the abnormal appear normal."

"As for the destroyed Arctic Space Monitoring Station, it will already be restored to its original state when you return, and I have erased all traces of the Black Tide invasion."

The Star Network's answer completely resolved a series of worries Yu Chuan had.

He nodded solemnly again:

"I will keep this secret, and thank you for the medical treatment provided by the Moon Eclipse Clan."

The Star Network nodded with a smile:

"I will dispatch a spaceship to send you back."

After speaking, the projection of the Star Network's body dissipated into starlight.

A knock on the door was heard, and a man dressed in the Moon Eclipse Clan's military uniform entered the room.

...

Back to the data center.
