บท 9: Publishing Zombie Survival Online, Receiving Starter Package
[Do you want to publish Zombie Survival Online in all app stores in Blue Star?]
"Yes, publish it in all app stores."
[What will be your developer name?]
Hearing that question from the system, Weiss pondered for a while.
The voice of the system was monotonous and it was quite similar to Alice's voice but less lively. It was like an AI using Alice's voice to perform text-to-speech.
Because of that, Weiss could differentiate whether it was Alice or the system talking to him.
"My developer name… I haven't thought of that yet."
"Can you wait for a while, system?"
Weiss asked while opening his web browser and typing on the search engine of Toogle.
[Affirmative.]
Receiving the system's agreement, Weiss started browsing the internet for a good developer name.
"I feel like I'm going to use my developer name for the lore of my future games so I should use a cool-sounding name."
Muttering those words, Weiss took several minutes until he came up with his developer name.
"System, my developer name will be Aspro."
[Zombie Survival Online will be published under the developer name Aspro under all app stores in Blue Star.]
[All games published by you will be free since you don't earn any additional Dev points regardless if the game is paid or not.]
Hearing that monotonous response from the system, Weiss grimaced, "It's a good thing I'm rich so I don't have to worry about earning money."
[Weiss, you are mistaken. You can also use Dev points to convert it into money. So you are still paid for doing developer work.]
When Weiss heard that reply, he immediately understood the system's intentions for making the games he published for free.
"Ah, I see. The games published by me are free so that all humans can play them. After all, all of humanity will be used to fend off the otherworld invasion so it's better for my games to be free than paid."
"Not that I have a problem with that. Money is nothing but paper for me and I can easily earn more if I want to. With my skills, I can turn one penny into one billion."
"To me, my entertainment is more important than money. Boredom is the bane of my existence."
Weiss was very rich in his past life so that's why he didn't care much about money.
Or to be specific, he wasn't rich to begin with, just from an average middle-class family.
He remembered how he was forced to be rich due to that certain rich girl from a Top Conglomerate forcing him to marry to the point that he was forced to bring down that rich girl's father's conglomerate.
In the process of face-slapping her, Weiss had already become the richest man and no one dared to force him with anything.
So, if he ever wanted to, he had many means of earning money easily. Even if his games didn't yield any money in terms of it being free game instead of a paid game, Weiss didn't mind it that much.
-Ding!
[Weiss, since you have successfully published your first game, you will receive the starter package!]
[You can check the starter package in your inventory. Or do you want me to open it for you?]
This time, it wasn't the system that notified Weiss but the system spirit Alice.
Hearing Alice's question, Weiss responded, "Open the starter package for me."
-Ding!
[The starter package has been opened!]
[You have obtained God-Level Gamer Talent, One Thousand Forced Players Card, Game Item Shop 90% Discount Coupon, and Past Life Inheritance Card.]
[Loading the descriptions of all the obtained rewards…]
-Ding!
[God-Level Gamer Talent: Become a God-Level Gamer and easily beat any games with god-level operation. Any game type and game genre can easily be beaten and you can tap on the limits of the human body when playing games. However, the more it is used, the more the body will overheat due to excessive usage of the human body to display god-level operations in the game.]
[One Thousand Forced Players Card: A one-time use item. By using this card, you can force a thousand human beings who are 16 years old and above to participate in your game. It doesn't matter if they are willing to play your game or not, but as long as this card is used, they either lose the game or win the game.]
[Game Item Shop 90% Discount Coupon: A one-time use item. Using this allows you to have a 90% discount on the Game Item Shop.]
[Past Life Inheritance Card: You will inherit every internal possession you have from your past life such as skills, physical attributes, and muscle memory. External possessions such as wealth and jewelry and conceptual possessions such as fate and luck aren't included. It will be as if you transmigrated into Blue Star with not just your soul but also your physical body from your past life.]
Receiving the contents of the starter package and seeing it in his system inventory, Weiss subconsciously smirked after seeing such items.
Although he was confident in his gaming skills as he was the best gamer in his past life, there were still games that he wasn't good at and with the God-Level Gamer Talent, he would become a better gamer than he once was.
The One Thousand Forced Players Card had solved his problem of waiting for the players to find his game and play it. After all, even if his game was in all app stores in Blue Star, there were too many games in the app stores and he didn't advertise his game.
"It's dumb to advertise my game and reveal that I am the game developer since this is literally a game that seemed to send the player to another world, far more realistic than those VR full immersion games. It can even allow players to bring out in-game items to reality as long as the player wins."
"If the government discovered that I am the developer of such a heaven-defying game, I will be forced by them to spit out the game items."
When Weiss thought of that possibility, he sighed, "Although I can deal with them, it will still cause unnecessary bloodshed. So this One Thousand Forced Players Card just came in handy."
บท 10: Zombie Survival Online's First Round Is About To Start!
"Before I use the One Thousand Forced Players Card, might as well use the other consumables first."
Weiss immediately checked his system inventory as a blue-colored system screen with infinite small boxes appeared in front of him.
His system inventory had similar designs to the player inventory of most video games. However, unlike those games with limited inventory space, Weiss discovered that his system inventory was infinite.
His system inventory has one hundred boxes per page and it has infinite pages. On page 1, the first column of boxes stored the God-Level Gamer Talent x1, One Thousand Forced Players Card x1, Game Item Shop 90% Discount Coupon x1, and Past Life Inheritance Card x1.
Tapping on the box that contained the God-Level Gamer Talent x1, Weiss saw that a small text box button appeared on top of it which was [Use].
Pressing the [Use] button, Weiss felt his body and soul integrate with the God-Level Gamer Talent.
Weiss was already one of the best gamers in his past life yet he felt reborn anew. His current self with the God-Level Gamer Talent could easily defeat a hundred of his previous self.
As for why he couldn't defeat a thousand of his previous self, Weiss felt that his physical prowess couldn't allow long-term usage of the God-Level Gamer Talent.
Unlike his past life's physical prowess, his new life's physical body was quite weak.
"If I'm not mistaken, my soul should have transmigrated into the body of my parallel self. But this parallel self of mine was similar to me with the only exception of not exercising and learning martial arts."
"So it could be said that this parallel self of mine was created under the possibility of me choosing not to exercise and learn martial arts. Fortunately, the Past Life Inheritance Card could be used to make up for that defect in my transmigration."
With that speculation in mind, Weiss didn't hesitate to use the Past Life Inheritance Card.
When Weiss used the Past Life Inheritance Card, there weren't any fantasy-like visual effects that appeared. However, his body became more muscularly developed compared to his previous shut-in body which was devoid of any muscle outlines. His body was muscular but on the lean side as it complemented Weiss' handsome appearance.
After using the Past Life Inheritance Card, Weiss felt the improvement in his physical body and he punched the air to test the power he could exert. Afterward, he started performing his martial arts moves in his room.
Weiss noticed that he didn't have to train to get used to his power since the Past Life Inheritance Card came with muscle memory. It was as if he transmigrated into this world with not just a soul but his body as well.
"With my current physical strength, I can become a God-Level Gamer and defeat five hundred of my previous self in gaming. Unfortunately, my current physical strength is only the limit of the human body."
"Although humans who focused on mastering a single physical attribute surpassed me in that single physical attribute, I still surpass them in overall physical attributes. After all, I trained my body but didn't overdo it to the point it would affect my appearance."
"If I went all out in training my body regardless of my appearance, I could have surpassed them all and become the strongest human. However, I didn't want to be too muscular like those bodybuilders. But I can still defeat them and every martial artist in Blue Star in a spar. After all, I have great control in exerting my physical power so I can use it to its fullest potential."
"Furthermore, I can never lose in anything as long as I treat it as a game due to my God-Level Gamer Talent. If it's a running competition, I can reach speeds far greater than my limits but it would take a toll on my body due to the side effects of the God-Level Gamer Talent."
When Weiss discovered the potential of his God-Level Gamer Talent, he hypothesized, "If I were to compete with a god in a running competition and that god can run at the speed of light, I will win as long as my body can withstand the overheating side effect of the God-Level Gamer Talent."
"But since my body is too weak to defeat a god in a game, I'd probably disintegrate just from the overheating before I can even outrun a god."
"Although the God-Level Gamer Talent doesn't make me invincible against existences at higher realms, I am still invincible in the same power level."
Weiss was confident that currently, he was the strongest human in Blue Star. If he were to fight against the first batch of otherworld creatures invading Blue Star two months from now, he would undoubtedly win.
But if it was to defeat the gods later on, Weiss knew that he had to develop more games so that he could obtain game items that improved his power.
After Weiss used the God-Level Gamer Talent and the Past Life Inheritance Card, he decided to use the One Thousand Forced Players Card.
"With my preparations completed, I can now use the One Thousand Forced Players Card."
Muttering those words, Weiss activated the One Thousand Forced Players Card.
Summoning a system screen, Weiss saw that his second game server for Zombie Survival Online was filled with one thousand players which was the limit.
As for why it's not the first game server, it was due to that game server already having 14 players. The game server has a one thousand player limit so the One Thousand Forced Players Card took effect on the second game server which has no players in it.
Even if there were players in the game server, the game would only start if there were a thousand players in the server. So, the second game server which has one thousand players was about to start while the first game server with only 14 players didn't start yet.
When Weiss noticed the countdown for the game to start in the second game server of Zombie Survival Online, Weiss muttered, "I'm bored. I might as well join the players in playing the first-ever round of Zombie Survival Online."
