Orbis Online
60. War News
"Huaah, fresh! It's been a long time since I've breathed real air!"
Once logged out Deus immediately stretched his body slightly while breathing the deep air filling his lungs with oxygen and some other gases. He can finally feel the freshness of the original air in the real world after a long time in the virtual world.
After being satisfied to breathe oxygen with a large volume, Deus again stretched the muscles of his body that was still limp. He does not want to experience muscle pain or cramping because it is not heated properly.
A few minutes later, Deus stepped into the kitchen and took a bottle of mineral water from his refrigerator to wet his throat. Mineral water is delicious, especially if the temperature is low!
After his business in the kitchen was done, Deus went to the room and turned on the television watching Orbis News, about to see about what is going on inside there— considering that recently there was a big war involving small level players and thousands of low level mob monsters in the village of Viredeta.
"Welcome back to Orbis News, a television show that brings information in the Orbis Online game to the real world."
Deus was quite stunned to find himself on time when his show had just started, he felt a little lucky. On the television screen was seen a handsome middle-aged man in a neat suit who was ready to bring the Orbis News show.
Then he listened word by word to be spoken by the host of the event.
"Ehem, as we know, there has recently been a major war involving mob players and monsters in large numbers. So, this time we invited some players who were directly involved in the war."
When the host said that, several screens appeared behind him. On these screens can be seen some players whose faces are quite familiar with Deus. This made Deus slightly tilt his head.
There were Dalon and three other party leaders who participated in the war against thousands of mob monster troops led by Raevolg who wanted to level Livetuna with the ground. How can they not log out even though soon will be done maintenance and updates simultaneously?
When the question came to his mind, Deus recalled the system from Orbis Online that was able to accelerate the reality of his virtual world by twofold. No wonder that Dalon and others still have not logged out of Orbis Online.
Most recordings recorded directly from inside Orbis Online are indeed reruns, but to the upper left of the television screen Deus can see the writing 'live' this means that Orbis News is currently broadcasting live from the game.
With the rapid development of technology in recent years, mankind has found a technology that can record the speed of objects fast enough to be the normal speed that can be seen by ordinary people live. This technology is not a technology commonly called slow motion, but something different.
The technology is applied to a special Item created by Orbis Online's core development team for Orbis Channel to cover live in-game broadcasts without significant time and speed differences. The name of this technology is Fastdrive.
Fastdrive does have tremendous uses and benefits if applied in the real world, but the problem is that this technology can only be applied to the virtual world. For its application in the real world can not be realized for some reason.
"The biggest player in the big war, huh? I think it was Ramsey. He who finished off all the strongest monsters as his Boss in an instant. If there wasn't him, I think Livetuna would be flat by now."
Deus nodded softly hearing Dalon's reply. He also felt that the most important role in the war was Ramsey—Haris— which had eliminated all Field Boss levels of approximately one hundred. If only Ramsey wasn't there, I don't know what he could do to win the war.
He took back the water in the mineral bottle in his hand.
"But, the player who is no less instrumental is Reus."
"Yes!"
When he heard the name of his Orbis Online avatar called by Dalon, Deus spontaneously spouted mineral water that was halfway to the stomach. He choked due to the unexpected speech of Dalon.
"Reus? Was he the Reus who was recently famous for selling HP Potions I and Great Items to those novice players?"
"I don't know that, but the avatar's name is Reus. He wears an all-black Equip and his fighting abilities using a sword and his skills are great. I wonder if he's a veteran who tried to play from the beginning or if he's been great in the real world."
While trying to relieve his own involuntary cough, Deus kept his hearing focused on the sound of the television. He was really stunned and surprised by the statement of Dalon just now— even though his coughing voice was still partying.
"He volunteered to scout the village of Viredeta alone from within using a special Item he got from defeating a certain monster, the, directing the players using great strategies and formations that can wipe out hundreds of mob monsters in an instant, then be in the front row to pound the opposing side single-handedly for some time. Moreover, Reus was a lower level player than the party leaders. He's a really amazing player."
"So, can you say that this player named Reus is the most instrumental player in this war?"
"From a pure war point of view maybe Ramsey is the most instrumental player, but if in a real war like some time ago, the MVP title is worth getting by Reus. I think Reus is the player who played the most part in this Raid."
Hearing Dalon's remarks aimed at answering questions from the Orbis News reporter, Deus could only be speechless to respond to the statement. He thought that his voluntary action would not be appreciated because the level was low, but reality said otherwise.
Deus just showed his little smile proving that he is currently happy. Of course happy, who would be upset if famous because of a big incident to enter television?
But there is a part of Deus that is not happy about it. Yes, it was Reus who was his avatar inside Orbis Online. It would certainly be troublesome if he was that famous in the virtual world.
