The moment the Gods awoke, They fell into contemplation.
Drifting within the boundless Shadows, They could sense the Shadows embracing Their bodies, allowing Them to draw vast amounts of knowledge from within the Shadows.
They faintly remembered that They were once Gods who, during Their travels and adventures beyond Their own realm, discovered some substances infused with formidable power.
This material was incredibly stable, yet upon opening it slightly, They found it could nearly sever anything.
They handed these substances over to Their Priests, who began to analyze these things... and then...
Then, the Priests dared a certain method, which resulted in an explosion so great it made the whole Heavenly Tao network tremble for a while.
What happened after that?
The Shadows snatched Them along with that part of the substance, and They sank deep into the Shadows. They still remembered Their own name, but They felt completely surrendered to the Shadows.
They were no longer Gods but had become an Evil God, fully transformed and devoted to the Shadows.
The Shadows morphed into their garments, enrobing Their graceful figure with attire as resplendent as the stars, giving Them an allure that was both dangerous and fatal.
Demonic Qi brought Them new abilities, further enhancing Their original powers, making Them feel omnipotent.
She had been online intensively since her vacation started, and every time she thought about logging off for a rest, she’d think, “Just one more jump,” taking advantage of the ship’s recovery time to grab a quick bite before continuing to play.
Although the work was repetitive, with each completion her capital grew. When it reached a certain level, she could exchange her ship, causing a qualitative change. A series of small changes accumulated into a major transformation, making the game as addictive as a perpetuum mobile, impossible to put down.
There were no levels or skills in the game, but money or rather faith was omnipotent in this starry space. In a world where Gods existed, as long as you had money, most temples on the planets were the best enhancement zones.
And if one didn’t follow the path of the Gods, technological enhancements were another option. In addition to power armor, various forms of bio-modification technologies were explosively advanced, allowing players to freely modify themselves.
After catching on to the game’s mechanics, Lin Nan was now exhilarated.
Meanwhile, through this game, she truly understood the strengths of the various members of the Fang Cheng Studio.
Boss Fang Cheng, naturally, needed no introduction. A coding guru, he alone hammered out the gameplay and crafted an entire open world—a figure revered enough that Boss Wolong would gladly carry him to and from work, and even act as his chair if needed.
Statistician Xiao Douzi was definitely talented; receiving the game when most of the stats were already set, he nonetheless managed to incorporate an additional set of values. With a new approach, he balanced the entire system and made it incredibly enjoyable to play. To Lin Nan, his work seemed nothing short of miraculous.
Huang Ping was the type whose significant contributions were not outwardly apparent. Although he seemed to do nothing, in reality, he perfected every detail, making adjustments so comfortably that even Boss Wolong would greatly value him.
Beyond that, the members of her own team were also remarkable.
Xu Qingling needed no mention, always giving off a vibe of a hidden boss to be wary of provoking.
Wang Xiaoying was exceptionally adept at processing information. With just a bit of hearsay, she could guess what events might happen soon, preparing in advance to procure goods before reaping a profit from the event.
Tian Xuan seemed like a mascot-type character, but for some reason, the Mukuai in the game would turn pale at her sight, and other players accompanying Mukuai would treat her with utmost respect.
