[In a Rental Room in the Real World]
"Damn it, what the hell is going on?! It Suddenly shows my account is occupied?!"
Xiao Wen cursed and climbed out of the game cabin, feeling somewhat annoyed.
He had been in the middle of an intense battle with a team of players in the Divine Domain Competition, when he was suddenly tripped by something.
Then the interface showed that his account was being occupied, and after that, no matter what he did, he couldn't log into the game.
Just as Xiao Wen was getting frustrated, he saw his roommate Xiao Wu also coming out of the game cabin just like him.
"You also logged out? Don't tell me the same thing happened to you?!"
Hearing Xiao Wen's words, Xiao Wu blankly nodded his head, still seemingly not recovered from the shock.
"Just now, what tripped us? Then suddenly it showed our accounts were occupied…I was forcibly kicked out…"
"Then no matter what I do, I can't log into the game again..."
Hearing that Xiao Wu's experience was exactly the same as his own, Xiao Wen knew this definitely wasn't a coincidence.
He immediately opened his phone and started searching the game forum. Sure enough, it wasn't just the two of them who had this experience.
Other players in the Divine Domain Competition seemed to have the same experience.
[What the heck?! What's going on?! My account keeps showing it's being occupied!]
[Got hacked? This game is connected to neurons, that shouldn't be possible, right?]
[I knew I wasn't the only one. It seems like we were all attacked by HIM before this happened!]
[Huh?? Why would HIM hack my account??…]
[Heard this HIM might not be the one we're familiar with. Wasn't there a rumor before that HIM and an impostor were trapped?]
[Could it be the impostor beat HIM and escaped to do evil?!!]
[The key thing is, what does he want our accounts for?!]
[This all happened near the Divine Domain Competition entrance. That area is probably in chaos now. Only us who got knocked out have time to chat. We still don't know what exactly happened…]
[Anyway, let's report it to the official support first…]
Thankfully, reality was not like what Entity 303 had imagined.
The third HIM seemed only able to take over players' accounts, that is, the data they left behind in the game.
Precisely because of this, those players kept using their usual techniques during the attack.
Although the situation wasn't as bad as Entity 303 had feared, it still definitely impacted the game.
If players can't log in for a long time, their attachment to the game will definitely weaken, and this will surely lead to player loss.
———
At this moment, at the Divine Domain Competition entrance, the obsidian chains controlled by the third HIM were wantonly piercing through players' arms and shoulders.
It looked like he was deliberately avoiding vital spots.
His infection method seemed to be the same as how Xu Yuan infected the half-infected ones. He needed to injure the players, but couldn't kill them.
Entity 303 also noticed this detail.
'There's a way to stop him!'
To prevent players from being controlled by the third HIM, the simplest method was to kill them.
If it had been the old Entity 303, he would've acted without hesitation. But now he hesitated.
Entity 303 roughly understood the plan Xu Yuan had for facing the Void in the future.
In Xu Yuan's plan, the power of the players was also an indispensable part.
After the last great battle against the Wither Storms, the players had basically come to understand that Xu Yuan was on the same side as them.
If he acted now, the hard-earned trust bridge would likely collapse instantly.
Although this was a tough decision, Entity 303 didn't hesitate for long before deciding.
'Still need to act!'
Thinking this, Entity 303 quickly formed a fireball in his hand and hurled it toward the area with the densest infected players.
The fireball landed and instantly exploded.
Players within a radius of more than ten yards were instantly engulfed in flames.
"What the heck?! What's going on?! Fire God turned into an arsonist again?!!"
"What's happening??? Wasn't HIM on our side?! Why are both HIM and Entity 303 attacking us now?…"
"Run! Run!! Quick, run!!"
Although Entity 303 used one fireball to eliminate a portion of the players whose minds were occupied by the third HIM, the infection speed of the third HIM was extremely fast, and there were still many troublemakers in the lower area.
Just as Entity 303 was about to strike again, he suddenly saw an obsidian spiral drill over ten meters thick charging straight at his face.
Entity 303 raised his hand and conjured a fire shield to protect himself.
The moment the obsidian drill touched the fire shield, it was instantly melted by it.
That attack, of course, came from the third HIM. Seeing how easily Entity 303 neutralized his attack, the third HIM couldn't help being surprised.
When he got a good look at Entity 303's appearance, he was stunned. "He was summoned here too?!"
The third HIM came from the world of Fan Village.
In the Fan Village world, both Entity 303 and HIM existed as creator gods. But compared to Notch and the others, Entity 303 could only be considered a second-rate creator god.
Naturally, the HIM from Fan Village recognized Entity 303. And the appearance of this world's Entity 303 was no different from the one in Fan Village.
That's why Fan Village HIM mistook him. 'Maybe he knows something…'
Thinking this, Fan Village HIM immediately flew toward Entity 303.
Seeing Fan Village HIM flying toward him, Entity 303 became cautious. He immediately opened data search. And instantly sensed that there was a spatial anomaly around Fan Village HIM.
Entity 303 instantly retreated.
'It's a domain… Must keep my distance from him…'
Seeing this, Entity 303 quickly pulled away from Fan Village HIM.
Fan Village HIM found this strange. He had no intention of attacking Entity 303, and seeing Entity 303 seemingly avoiding him, he spoke, "I mean no harm. I need to talk with you."
Fan Village HIM actually had a sense of the bigger picture. He wasn't reckless.
Having just arrived in this world, he was also confused. Naturally, he wanted to understand this world before making his next move.
And Entity 303 was the only familiar face to him. Although he found this world's Entity 303 a bit strange, there were two possibilities.
One, this world's Entity 303 was also summoned, and this body didn't belong to the original one.
Or two, this world's Entity 303 was native to this world.
Regardless, Entity 303's strength was not to be underestimated.
Fan Village HIM wanted to gain information, and ideally persuade Entity 303 to join his plan.
Hearing Fan Village HIM's words, Entity 303 was a little surprised. He had never expected Fan Village HIM to actually want to talk.
At this point, avoiding conflict was best. After all, Entity 303 knew he couldn't beat Fan Village HIM. His goal now was to lead Fan Village HIM to Xu Yuan's location.
If he had to fight to drag him over, it was obviously not practical. Mainly because the distance from here to Xu Yuan was too far. If he could lead Fan Village HIM over through conversation, that would be ideal.
Thinking this, Entity 303 stopped walking. But he still kept a certain distance from Fan Village HIM, not daring to get too close.
Seeing Entity 303 stop, Fan Village HIM spoke directly, "You're like an old friend of mine."
From Fan Village HIM's words, it was clear he was cunning.
In Fan Village, Entity 303 and HIM weren't really that close. If this world's Entity 303 was also summoned like him, he would definitely refute that statement.
After all, they weren't close and weren't old friends. If the current Entity 303 went along with that, it would prove he was native to this world.
Hearing Fan Village HIM's words, Entity 303 thought for a moment, then said, "Is that so? What a coincidence. An old friend of mine looks exactly like you."
Hearing this, Fan Village HIM grew curious. "Oh? Really?"
Seeing that Fan Village HIM didn't continue questioning, Entity 303 also spoke, "Or rather, you're already the second person who looks exactly like my old friend. I knew long ago that you would appear. Otherwise, do you think our meeting was a coincidence?"
