VRMMO: Am I The Strongest Yet?

Awakenings.

Everyone experiences it at each hindered level and commonly, there are three awakenings.

The first awakening that one receives when they reach (Level-100), also known as the physical awakening.

It is the most common awakening where all individuals who achieve this stage, including any kind of creature or being, go through a process of physical change.

Their bodies become more adapt to the world around them, a process that reconstructs their physical selves to be more adaptable to the world around them.

It isn't simply about getting stronger or strengthening the stats that they have, it's more like a complete reconstruction of the body… not the same as the body reconstruction of the eastern martial artists, but a more deep process.

"A virtual body is simply a virtual representation of one's mental self. There are many games that give you a virtual form according to your mental image of yourself, but New Origin uses the actual physical structure with the reference to the mental structures to create the virtual body."

In <NO> the fundamental structure of a physical body is created with not some set template or with a complete scan of the body, but through a mental access into the mind.

"Haha, that reminds me of those games that make you something you think of yourself as. Whenever I played it, it made me a kitten." Olive's father and mom both were watching from the side as the rest of them walked to the center.

Eon, Olive, Blaze, and Alex. All of them were going to spar now, and the two of them were going to watch since they have nothing more to do.

They were using the virtual space that wasn't connected to <NO> but could replicate the states and the skills that they had inside the game through a different system, but it still wasn't the same as the ones that they have in the game.

It was a special space that Eth created for Blaze to train so it was more like a personal lobby that she had gifted him.

But now, they were all using it. And, since both Elio and Alex were (Level-100)+, Olive was (Level-200)+ and Blaze was (Level-300)+ they had someone who had achieved all three awakenings or at least one of them.

"It's a fascinating game anytime I think about it though. How would they have thought about using the conscious mental scans as a reference point to recreate a physical body and Then made it so that it gets better each time they cross a level?"

The chariots and the head gears had existed for over two decades now.

New Origin was not the first game to use these technologies, but the way they used it was completely different from how the other games did.

"The fundamental process of creating a virtual body was first linked with how a software could recreate a physical structure, but ever since NO came, the Mental body materialization technique that they used in their game was something simply revolutionary."

The Creators had used a unique algorithm that would put the mind through a certain process that tech nerds like Olive's dad called (Mental Assembly).

It was a very short process in which the mind was put through a series of tasks which might seem complex consciously, for the mind, or the the brain processing them, these tasks were simply commands like anything that a (thought) produces.

"They understood the Mind at a level that is scientifically impossible, and then they used the philosophical principles that they had initially adopted to create a near perfect representation of a physical self… it's unbelievable."

Her dad was more about how things were while Eth was always curious about why things were the way they were.

That might be the reason that made her so unique yet so simple.

But they were a unique match. That much was a true story.

"The leveling up in their system is not simply getting stronger."

With each level up, the mind becomes more adapted to the algorithm of this game, and the first time they go through the awakening process, the algorithm that has learned most there was to learn about them, gives them an appropriate virtual reconstruction that helps them adapt to the (Truths) of their world in a better way.

"With the second awakening comes a personalisation of that algorithm."

The one and zero in any kind of software isn't adapted in this algorithm since the Creators used something that was more than just one and zero.

"The ABC code… it's actually impossible to replicate that thing. It's more of a phenomenon than a system."

Admiration, Break, and Creation. One can also understand it as creation, destruction, and maintenance of anything that has no certain origin.

The code asks one's mind questions through the simple electrical signals that are used in any kind of technology related to virtual reality.

Through a complex analysis of the answers that the code receives an initial physical body is created, then at the time of first awakening, a true physical body forms that has its own potential and talents.

Later, with the second awakening, one achieves control over the mental processes, a greater freedom of movement that was not possible earlier, and the special ability to interact with the elements of the world that are simply beyond the control of normal people or those who had not achieved that stage.

The third awakening, on the other hand, is more special…

"The representation of divinity is the most fascinating in my opinion, you know?"

"You've said it a million times by now. Of course I know."

Divinity isn't simply a power that one can receive after they pass through a certain stage like the (third awakening) or by achieving something that grants them the divine powers… in the technical terms of a tech nerd or a data scientist like Eth, this divinity is the detachment from the algorithm that was initially guiding them in that world.

"Since you are practically a virtual representation of your actual self, there are bound to be countless things that will block you from doing countless things.

Be it the simple interference with the creation code of that game, or to form a connection with the source code itself. The divine power is what we call Admin control."

"More like Mod control actually since there still are the direct Restrictions from the Truths and the Origins present."

"Actually, no. Since divinity is freedom from the original restrictions, the interference from the other forces is more like an external influence rather than innate restrictions.

It's like you can do anything you want after gaining divinity, but the world and the AIs maintaining that world will stop you and restrict you to keep the Truths maintained."

They did not understand it until recently but the reason no one was able to create a 'Mythical' achievement was because of this external restriction.

Everyone over (Level-300) possesses divinity, but there are also who possess divinity despite not being of that level.

The level itself is simply a representation of power, authority, and freedom. If one has divinity, the level itself becomes meaningless.

Still, to achieve divinity, there are countless things that one had to do or certain trials all around the world that they needed to overcome.

"The Voice…"

All the humans all over their world had heard the voice of the system when the phenomenon occurred and the Myth of <NO> was announced alongside the status window that appeared before everyone that had some connection with the Original algorithm.

"Do you think that Voice is the awakened artificial 'power' that THEY had theorized?"

Eth set back and smiled at her children.

One was a diligent swordsman, her little man that always wanted to become a superhero ever since he was a baby.

And then there was her stubborn daughter… someone playing a key role in THEIR schemes.

Her beloved Elio and not a daughter, but a best friend Alex.

All of them were what gave her life a meaning, and now, they were a deep part of something that even she had only thought would forever remain a dumb theory.

"It could be…"

Sean knew less about the actual science behind things and the theories that Eth knew, but from all his experiences and the knowledge that he had about this whole thing going on in their world… he knew the relationship between the Voice and the Connection that they all had with <NO> was simply complicated.

"But creating an artificial god? You know the best just how absurd that is."

Even if they were all seeing it in person, it was not easy to believe some Humans had artificially birthed a god that was, as god-like as anything mentioned in any kind of ancient text present in any part of this world. Continue reading at My Virtual Library Empire

"Well… it's not easy to believe."

If one wanted to analyze this whole phenomenon from a scientific perspective, they would have many things to say about it, but most of them would be flowed since no one, including these people, knew much about this Strange game.

"But there isn't much we can do about what we have little to no knowledge of, right?"

"Yeah…"

They watched as Alex and Blaze clashed their swords and as Elio showed Olive the unique spells that he could cast.

The four of them were having fun in their own ways, and watching them, their little children, was more fulfilling for these two than analyzing abstract concepts that just didn't have any concrete answers.

When the timer ends, they will find the answers that they were looking for anyway, but until that happens…

"Oh, looks like Blazy is showing that cool move he was talking about."

They weren't going to contemplate about that Voice, THEIR actual goals, or the intentions of the Voice…
