After Feng Bujue and No. 23 had said their goodbyes, he was teleported, but there was something that anchored in Feng Bujues thought. As a group of data that was born with a consciousness and certain intelligence, could the Derivatives be considered a high-rank life form? Should they deserve respect and at least not to be killed because of their "existence"?

This couldnt be clear with just reasoning. For each single event in this world, theres no absolute right or wrong, should or should not. Feng Bujue was just an ordinary human being, and he didnt have such power or ability to care about these things. What he could only do was to think about it.

[Youve reached level 13. Your Stamina Value limit is increased. Current Stamina Value: 1300/1300.]

The system notification had disturbed his thought.

"Jue-Ge, are you okay? Why were you delayed by several minutes?" Wang Tanzhis voice came from his communication channel.

"Dont worry. I didnt die," Feng Bujue answered, "Ive reached level 13."

Wang Tanzhi said, "Eh? Ive just reached level 12 and gained more than 2000 EXP. And, Ive played one scenario more than you. Hm, this is the difference from the Skill Value."

Feng Bujue said, "The difference between Skill Value is not much. Even if earned 300 or 400 points of Skill Value in some scenarios of Multiplayer Survival Mode, it will only mean that I can have 3000 or 4000 EXP. Its mainly because of the [Hidden Quest] I completed at the previous scenario. And, from the Fear Rating, I got 40% of the current required EXP to level up."

"Hey Jue-Ge, if you just play alone and complete the scenarios, you will constantly receive 40% EXP from your Fear Rating. This means you can level up quickly and reach the max level!" Wang Tanzhi said.

"Ive considered this before. If I want to do that, I will definitely succeed. Anyway, Im kinda cheating in this game. If I become the max level player, which is very conspicuous, I will be the target of peoples criticism. Moreover, being able to reach the top level doesnt award anything. To a normal gamer like me, this would just bring many troubles," Feng Bujue answered.

Wang Tanzhi said, "It could be random that the Closed Beta Version has level 20 as the max level, but in the Open Beta, the max level could be level 50 or something. Moreover, what if theres a big prize for players who reached the max level?"

Feng Bujue smiled then said, "In fact, theres no difference. This arrangement will not change even if we enter the Open Beta. The game producers know that most of the gamers who could reach max level is from teams of professional gamers. Normal players have no way to compete with them since the resources they could use are different. For example, its the time for playing games. Normal players cant have as much time as professional players. Check out the ID: [The Fearless Hero], for example. Besides having his name posted in the forum for being the first player who has reached level 20, actually, he didnt receive any kind of rewards."

Later, what happened had proven that Feng Bujue was right. Dream Inc. didnt give anything to the first player who had reached the max level. Of course, that player and his team got what they wantedfame.

In fact, the current online games, which had strategy and entertainment, all had their top playe

rs as professional gamers. After several years, in their fading stage, when the professional gamers started to withdraw from the game, it was time for the other individuals or the normal players to shine. Of course, it was possible that there would be no more player at that time. Then, it would come to the stage that the game wouldnt let players to register new accounts. At that time, servers would be merged, and the game would eventually close.

To some "brain-damaged" games with clear settings, it was just the competition to see which type of gamers have a bigger pocket. Besides using some sexy female characters to advertise or other vulgar propagandas, the only thing that could attract players of those games are the graphics. The game itself isnt worth mentioning. The professional gamers in those games are the grassroots characters, being workers for the rich and doing the same foolish operations all the time, which seems to use the auto-function mode.

The life of these games is relatively short. Gamers who didnt spend money in the previous stage couldnt play the game, and the small number of the ones who had tried to survive got tortured too much to the point that they had to quit. And, as the game itself is poor in contents, players who used to spend money on it would find it boring soon. Eventually, they would quit.

Online Games in 2055 appeared like rising waves, just like single-use items. Interesting advertising, nothing in content, and poor maintenance. However, this kind of goods was still accepted by the market, because theres nothing wrong with consumable goods. People need consumable goods anyway. Players who didnt want to spend for the games could explore new things, while players who spend a lot could enjoy their fame in the games. The Game Producers just want to earn money at once, as they didnt have plans to maintain the games. Professional gamers and other players could be hired to level up or gather items for rich players to survive. Its as in your demands. With another half a year passing by, new games are born.

"Its good. If you level up that quick, no one will train with me then." Little Tan answered, "Hey, Jue-Ge, your Winchester is still with me. Ill give it back in the next scenario." Indeed, when they were in the gun shop, Little Tan had picked up two guns and put them in his bag. However, the Winchester was more suitable for the situation at the basketball court.

"Just keep it there. Ill sort out something and then logout," Feng Bujue answered.

"Wut? Its just 2:30 A.M," Little Tan said.

He meant that even if they had played for four hours straight, only half an hour in real time had passed. If converted the time in sleep mode, they still had 15morehours to play. It should be enough for another scenario with the same length as their previous one.

"Youve said that you are now at level 12 and you got 2000 EXP, right?" Feng Bujue said, "Its just around 10000 EXP more to the next level. You can play two more scenarios, and perhaps your title would change," he stopped for one second and continued, "me, I got something to think about." This reason seemed not to be very convincing.

Anyway, Little Tan accepted that since he knew Feng Bujue very well. If he wanted to say something, he would say it. What he didnt want to share, he would never open his mouth. It would be useless to continue asking him. "Alright, I will dismiss the team."

"Yeah, bye-bye."

Little Tan regarded him then left the team.

Feng Bujue opened his friend list, which only had four names and had three of them logged out; namely, Longao Min, Like Rain and Dispirited Laughing Bones. The status of Wang Tanzhi soon changed from Idle to Playing.

He then purposely checked the tab [Your recent teammates]. Besides the names of his friends, there were the others that he had met in the scenario, including the Invincible Hero, Young Master Ji Bu, and The Name Is Difficult To Choose. The Peerless General Pan Feng and The Executioner Hua Xiong were here too, but their status was "logged out". Feng Bujue suspiciously thought that this was just some sort of "invisible" status to cover them. Anyway, Feng Bujue didnt send them a message since they wouldnt answer him. It was impossible to send a friend request either.

Feng Bujue couldnt concentrate anymore since the story of No. 23 was entangling his mind. Now, he wasnt in the mood to play more. However, he didnt hurry to get the rewards or sort out his bag; instead, he opened the menu and logged out.

During the logging out procedure of the sleep mode, the system also had a reminder for the ones who didnt want to continue sleeping: [Do you need to be awakened?]
