Stars filled the sky as the moon shone brightly. Inside the valley, Feng Luo sat inside his military tent but chose not to go offline.
He finally had the rare chance to spend a night deep within the mountains in the game, so it was natural that he would take that chance to enjoy the experience.
Truth be told, he had experienced camping in the wild like this in his previous life as a mercenary more than a hundred times. However, for the three years since he had been in this parallel world, he had not experienced it even once.
“Earth huh… I’m afraid there’s no way for me to return…” Although rare, Feng Luo began to reminisce about the past.
“Scratch, scratch…”
As Feng Luo was reminiscing about the past, he suddenly heard sounds coming from outside his tent in the valley, sounds of the beetles building their nest.
Truth be told, back when 24K first mentioned the “beetle’s nest,” Feng Luo’s first thought was “Zerg base.” Feng Luo had always been suspicious about the beetles being related to the “Zergs.”
In particular, 24K’s energy signature was the same as the “Psionic Power” of the game StarCraft, as well as many cultural elements on Earth.
However, Feng Luo had searched words like “Zerg” or “Psionic Power” on the forum more than once, but he never found any useful information.
“Hold on… Wait a minute. Since it is StarCraft… Then, if it’s the storyline of the Zerg. Does it also involve other planets?” Feng Luo suddenly thought of something.
He logged on to the game’s official forum and quickly entered a subforum – “External Server News.”
All the players of War on the 17th Administrative Planet were on the same server, so it was natural that there wouldn’t be any external servers.
The external server here meant game servers of War on the other Administrative Planets.
Over 20 Administrative Planets of the Star Federation had different versions of War. This was only discovered by the players from the 17th Administrative Planet after the game began for some time; after the background information of the game of the other administrative planets reached them.
Although every administrative planet’s game was called War, each had a different background. Even the professions were different.
Take for example the game background of the planet closest to the 17th Administrative Planet, the 13th Administrative Planet, their game background was a battle between humans and artificial intelligence mechas that have awakened self-consciousness.
As for the second closest planet, the Capital Planet, though the professions of their game were quite similar to the 17th Administrative Planet, they had the unique symbiotic creature – Life Protozoa, that could significantly enhance a player’s combat ability.
Feng Luo only discovered this by accident on the external server subforums a few days ago.
He noticed that after War on the Capital Planet received a huge update, the Life Protozoa, which was similar to pets, appeared. It seemed like the Life Protozoa also held a significant role in the current game version.
As he connected these to the Life Protozoa in his body, he had been able to reach the following conclusion:
“Although the game background on each planet is different, they were all ultimately interconnected.”
However, in terms of this conclusion, it had already been confirmed a long time ago.
It was due to the appearance of the words “Galaxy Empire” in the game background description of War on all of the administrative planets. It was the government body that the NPC who helped Feng Luo appraise the pet biochip – Master Roland, told him about. The empire that oversaw thousands of administrative planets and entered the colonial galaxy era.
The external server section had always been quite popular on the forum. The connection between each of the different planets was also one of the most discussed topics on the forum.
With regard to the appearance of the term “Galaxy Empire” on the description of War on most planets, most people opined that although War on each planet had largely different content, they were most probably within the same galaxy.
The space galaxy era had not yet been released to the players, which was why no one could prove that point yet; this conclusion led to yet another popular trending topic.
After War released the star galaxy era patch, would players be able to board spacecrafts to fly to the War of another planet?
And from that, would inter-server gaming appear? Or perhaps, even inter-server battles or wars?
Players were greatly interested in this. Although the concept of nations had disappeared in the Star Federation, a sense of rivalry and competition still existed between different administrative planets.
However, in reality, it was almost impossible for people from different planets to meet each other. If such inter-server wars do appear in the game, it was definitely going to be something that motivated players a lot.
“But this should only exist in people’s imagination, right? Do you really think that it is achievable?” However, with regard to this topic, most people thought that it was impossible.
The reason was simple, with the current technology of the Star Federation, it was simply impossible for such inter-server wars to be implemented.
Although the technology of the galaxy era was far more advanced than the planetary era, the distance between the people from different planets had actually become even larger.
The distance between habitable planets in the galaxy was calculated by lightyears. Even if one possessed the technology to leap through space, even when it came to the Star Federation’s two closest administrative planets, going from one to the other still took at least one month; and in terms of the two furthest apart administrative planets, the journey would take more than a year.
“Moreover, communication signals could never leap through space. Even if it were at light speed, a player would need a few years to hear just a message from a player from another planet.”
“So, how can one achieve an inter-server war with such constraints? If it were achievable, the federation wouldn’t have needed to start expanding outwards in recent years.”
“The background content of other planet’s War would probably appear in the form of an expansion pack, but anything that is inter-server is probably impossible…”
Some experts and professors also gave their opinions proactively. They were largely in agreement on the possibility of inter-server functions, which was that it was theoretically impossible.
Of course, many still hoped to see an inter-server war become reality.
The game already possessed technology levels that far surpassed normal games. This meant that the Star Federation’s technology had experienced significant progress, the Federation may actually have such capability. Otherwise, why would the government promote the game throughout the entire federation?
Although Feng Luo was still not very sure where the parallel world’s technology level was at, he leaned more towards the second opinion.
Since something as absurd as entering a parallel world had happened, Feng Luo would not be the least bit surprised if War really had advanced technology that allowed inter-galactic communications.
However, this was not the reason why he went to the external server forum section. Instead, he was there to search for the keyword, “Zerg.”
Feng Luo entered his search term on the external server forum section through audio command.
In an instant, multiple messages were listed out according to their popularity. The first few threads surprised him.
“Stray Starship Fleet – Battle between humans and Zerg.”
“Latest update: 22nd Administrative Planet’s background description – the frightening Zerg.”
“22nd Administrative Planet’s monster background description, attached with battle videos.”
