Chapter 236 Server Consolidation (2)

Arcadia enjoyed by billions of people around the world.

Unlike existing games that operate independently based on one country or culture, Arcadia provides services with only one single server.

[Arcadia consists of a total of 8 continents, and each continent is provided by tying each continent to a specific country or countries with similar languages and cultures. For example, European or Arab countries… and Southeast Asia or Oceania would be good examples.]

Lee Mi-yeon, president and general manager of Arcadia.

Based on what was officially announced through her, the public already knew. That there is not only one continent like this they are playing on. And the fact that somewhere far away, users from other countries are enjoying their own play on an unknown continent.

However, this announcement did not change anything in particular.

“What do you know if there are other continents or not? There are a lot of things I couldn’t even do here right now.”

“that’s right. Besides, if we move to another continent, what about all the foundations we have worked so hard to build here?”

“I don’t know if more related information is released… but not really…?”

Users who are not particularly interested in the content of Continental Shift unless they have a close friend who plays Arcadia in a foreign country. For them, faraway continents were not important, but the urgent priority was to find hidden quests or dungeons in the town or city where they were standing right now and hunt.

“I don’t know if there’s really nothing to do here, but there’s no reason to do that now.

“I will level up even more by hunting while I have time to look for continental movement content.”

The first route created by Dex and the Black Pirates after crossing the endless sea. Except for the liner operated by them, there was no unsolved information about continental movement at all, so their interest was bound to cool down quickly.

Until just recently.

[Large-scale update Pangea has been applied.]

[Welcome to Arcadia, one perfect continent.]

Voices heard by all players playing on all continents of Arcadia. Those who heard it clearly shouted with bewildered faces.

“what is this sound! A massive update!”

“Pangea? one continent? What just happened!”

A situation that happened without any foreshadowing. That time when everyone was shouting at it with a face that they couldn’t understand. Suddenly another beep sounded.

[Launch the update-related cinematic video.]

[Freeze all of Arcadia’s time to watch the video.]

“Time freeze…?”

“What are you talking about right now…”

Uung.

Users who can’t wake up to the sudden pouring notification sound. But they froze before they could finish what they were saying.

Freeze time.

All the users playing around the world, the NPCs and monsters living in this world, even the flowing river and the rolling waves were completely fine in a completely stopped state, and only the players were conscious.

‘Wow… was something like this possible?’

It’s as if the server got stuck with lag for an instant and stopped. However, Jaeyoung murmured to himself at the unfamiliar experience he had in virtual reality for the first time. That time when you observe and marvel at the sight of a world where time has stopped unfolding in front of you and your body that is completely out of control.

An image started to play in front of his eyes.

[In the beginning… there was only complete emptiness in this world.]

A small girl’s voice came from the complete darkness.

And suddenly, with a bright light, something quickly began to appear.

[But one day, starting with a tree born in this void, this world has completely changed! It made a solid earth by catching dust floating in the void with its roots, and enriched this world by caring for and nurturing countless lives with fruits and leaves.] A small

seedling born in the void. However, the seedling grew into a huge and dense tree in an instant, expanding its territory little by little, creating a huge land and creating a forest full of vitality.

I don’t know how much time has passed, but… a tree that has grown beyond compare to before and a huge continent formed around her. On that continent, countless lives were living peaceful lives.

[But… One day, a huge crisis came to this happy tree. Greedy beings from another dimension began to invade this land.]

Hellish beings with terrifying appearances protruding through the ground.

And the heavenly beings with pure white wings appeared tearing up the sky.

A fierce battle was being waged all over that huge continent.

It is a story that is whispered in Jaeyoung’s ear as if telling an old story. Jaeyoung, who knows the unknown myths of this world better than anyone else, was shocked because he knew what the cinematic video meant.

‘This crazy….. This is the Great War of the Holy Demons…?’

The story I heard from Tan and El. Although the contents were recorded in Arcadia’s history books, all contents related to the World Tree had been erased, and the secret contents of the myth were being revealed to users around the world at this moment.

The core reason why the world tree fell into endless dormancy, and the Great War that divided the continent into eight. When all of those facts were revealed, Jaeyoung’s head was complicated.

‘Why? Is this update directly related to the two in the future…?’

The back story of the Great War of the Holy Demons, which has never been found in a proper and complete record anywhere. However, through this story, she was telling users around the world everything without adding or subtracting.

[Battle between Heaven and Hell. As a result, the tree, cursed with eternal sleep, loses its strength and falls into a deep sleep. And her roots, which eventually lost their strength, couldn’t support the earth they were holding on to.]

Kukuku kung.

With those words, the continent was fragmented into 8 pieces and scattered far away.

It was shown so clearly and clearly that people who watched this video couldn’t help but know.

That the eight continents that are now dispersing were the Arcadia continents up until now.

“But…”

Suddenly, the scene changes again in front of the World Tree, and a young girl suddenly appears.

Her amber hair and eyes exuded a strange charm and a strange energy that seemed to make you fall in love with her.

“In a ridiculous coincidence, the tree was able to regain most of its strength, though not completely.”

Woo woo woo.

The world tree murmured while exhaling the green aura that it used to hit with excitement. As if she could see Jaeyoung, she looked at the exact spot he was looking at and said.

“Even though I will have to go through a long period of recovery again due to the manifestation of power… In the end, I ended up doing what I had been dreaming of for a long time.”

The World Tree recovered most of its power through the dragon heart Jaeyoung brought. However, as soon as she recovered, she used up most of her strength, so she muttered with a bitter smile, but she declared to everyone with a proud face as if she had no regrets.

“With this… all the continents of this world that had been scattered for so many years were completely united.”

cooong.

It wasn’t a very loud voice, but it felt like a powerful feeling of pressure that pierced the soul. At the same time, Jaeyoung felt a sense of unity with the world tree and felt its huge presence.

Not the scattered continents that were mercilessly torn apart in the past, but one huge continent perfectly united. And the countless lives that live and breathe on that huge land. It was being felt vividly on her myriad roots.

‘Wow… It’s much bigger than I imagined…?’

The size of the two continents of Arcadia alone was so huge that it was three times the size of the Korean Peninsula, but the unified continent of Arcadia that Jaeyoung felt now was so huge that it could not be easily pushed even compared to the size of the original Earth.

“Because they have been scattered for such a long time, no one remembers the peaceful and happy time in the past, so there will be a lot of confusion and conflict for the time being. But don’t forget, my children.”

The World Tree is a young girl, but has an expression like a benevolent mother and murmurs. She said with an expression that was strangely ferocious and overflowing with venom.

“That the menace of the ugly men who trespass this world is not over yet to fight and quarrel among you who are born on this land and receive my love and blessings.”

‘…?’

At that moment, Jaeyoung imagined. The faces of users all over the world who are embarrassed by the appearance of the World Tree, which suddenly breaks the original concept and shows its original appearance.

“Those fried chickens and bats, who wouldn’t be happy to eat them, are still flicking their filthy tongues without giving up on my territory. As the guardian of this land and the mother of all things and life, I command all life on this land with the mission given to me…

”

A mighty green aura emanating from her. This aura spread across all continents of Arcadia and soon began to seep into the land. and that moment. The last words of the world tree reached Jaeyoung’s ears.

“Destroy and annihilate all remnants of the vicious invaders who seek our homeland.”

[Video viewing has ended.]

[Time freeze has been released.]

[Update has been completed.]

[A clue about the forgotten myth of the past has been obtained.]

[The title ‘Child of the World Tree’ has been obtained.]

[ A complete continent awaits your adventure.]

With the words that the cinematic video has ended, Jae-young returns to his original place.

And next to him, Tan and El, who seemed unaware of anything, were fighting fiercely.

“evil! You damn chicken! Biting is against the law!”

“Heung, why don’t you hide those nasty claws first?”

“Ah-oh! This is real!”

Tan and L, who are thumping with the appearance of an imp and a baby angel, but are engaged in a fierce hand-to-hand combat without making any concessions.

The two of them found Jaeyoung sitting blankly with a bewildered expression on their faces, and soon stopped fighting and asked.

“Master, why are you making such a stupid face?”

“Was it so surprising to see continents coming together?”

Tan and L seem unaware of the fact that time is frozen. Seeing the reaction of the two, Jaeyoung wondered what to say.

‘Didn’t I just tell you that and then run back to the right place like back then?’

The three of them fought a bloody bloody battle for probability with Jaeyoung in between.

Watching the fight between the saplings, chicken and bats was a fun spectacle worth popcorn, but Jaeyoung shook his head as if it was nothing.

“Yeah… But seeing it with my own eyes is pretty surprising.”

As a rice cake for the narrative that will take place after the continental unification, the game company threw in the tremendous content of the Great War along with the request of the World Tree. Just by looking at this, Jaeyoung was able to get a rough idea of who would be the main character of the stories that will take place in the future unified continent.

‘Looks like the world tree wants to fuck the two of them properly…..’

She hates everyone equally without discrimination, whether it’s Tan or El, and gnashing her teeth.

Seeing as if it was interesting that the world tree was playing tricks on users all over the world without the two knowing, Jaeyoung smiled strangely and looked at the two wandering beings with round eyes in front of him.

“burnt. and L.”

“Why do you call me that way? Master, did you not eat well?”

“Yes, Dex. Is there anything you would like to ask for?”

The unified world of Arcadia, where beings from the celestial world and the demon world will appear in earnest.

Jaeyoung smiled brightly at the monarchs of the two kingdoms who were bound by bilateral contracts with him and said.

“I wish you well in the future.”
