The God's Games

Hanjun remembered that he was the one who initiated the conversation and asked, "How has it been playing recently?"

Lee Bang-myung gave a wry smile.

He wasn't here to play; he was here to work.

After spending so many days in the game, his supervisor was pushing him for a report on what he had discovered.

Even today, he was still unsure whether to write it up.

Lee Bang-myung thought that since this person was the owner of the game, he might be able to get answers if he asked him.

Hearing Lee Bang-myung's question, Hanjun sounded puzzled and asked, "Why do you think that way?"

Lee Bang-myung's question was straightforward: "Is this world real or just a fantasy?"

He asked with confusion.

He felt that the world seemed very real, not just in terms of the scenery but also in the way each NPC contributed to the gaming experience.

Lee Bang-myung had spent a long time in the game.

He didn't like interacting with players; those quests were boring to him.

He preferred to communicate with NPCs to learn about their families, personalities, and thoughts.

The more he learned, the more shocked he was by the game.

Lee Bang-myung had played other games before, but <<God's Games Online>> was different from any other game.

Every NPC could tell their own background, their own story, and had their own way of handling different situations.

He knew that creating such detailed NPC reactions in terms of text, personality, and responses would require a huge amount of work.

Was it really possible for a game company to invest this much effort?

From Lee Bang-myung's perspective, he was sure that such a thing couldn't happen in other games.

As long as a game has a bit of intelligence, the game company might call it as a realistic game.

But in reality, it's just that.

Lee Bang-myung mumbled to himself, "If this holographic game is built with an intelligent system, then each NPC should have a set of self-operating logic according to the game settings. But after observing them for so long, I've found that their behavior doesn't seem like AI at all. They act more like real people, which is why they seem so real."

But if they are real people, it doesn't make sense.

Hanjun had previously mentioned that not all NPCs are played by real people.

This made Lee Bang-myung even doubt whether <<God's Games Online>> was involved in some illegal research to create such a mysterious and realistic world, hiding many secrets.

Feeling Lee Bang-myung's doubts, Hanjun found it both funny and frustrating.

Are illegal human experiments even being considered now?

Lee Bang-myung's imagination is really wild.

However, the truth would probably disappoint Lee Bang-myung.

He only guessed half right: the people in world of eorera are indeed real.

As for the other truths, Hanjun wouldn't reveal them.

Hanjun pretended to be serious, "Why couldn't it be that my technology is so advanced that it created such mature AI? Or It can also be said that I successfully creating another world where those people could live like real people?"

In saying this, Hanjun wasn't lying.

He is the creator god of world of eorera and indeed created a world.

Listening to this, Lee Bang-myung felt a bit dizzy, "Creating another world and a bunch of people, isn't that against ethics…"

Artificial intelligence, creating life, just to use them as tools in the game?

Hanjun patted his shoulder, cast him a mind-clearing spell, and explained, "You're thinking too highly of me. I'm just using a metaphor. It's like that Detroit game, have you played it?"

Lee Bang-myung seemed to snap out of it, suddenly feeling more energetic.

Indeed, if Hanjun were that amazing, why would he even need to make a game?

And the facts were right in front of him.

His theories were just guesses with no solid evidence.

Lee Bang-myung didn't have much to say for now.

Hanjun thought he was a bit stubborn and advised, "Even though it's a holographic game, you shouldn't get too caught up in it. Look at those players; they can tell they're playing a game and are adapting very well."

After Hanjun explained, Lee Bang-myung felt that might be the case.

Since he mainly interacted with NPCs and rarely with players, that's probably why he had these strange thoughts.

Lee Bang-myung decided to take off his game equipment and go out for a walk.

Of course, the discoveries in the game were enough for him to write a report for his institute to evaluate the AI technology.

Hanjun successfully dealt with Lee Bang-myung.

Although he knew the issue wasn't fully resolved, he figured they wouldn't uncover the truth and would keep guessing, hopefully getting confused in the process.

Lee Bang-myung left, and Hanjun didn't have much time to relax before Father Barry called him, saying someone from Lindblum City had arrived and wanted to meet with Hanjun.

Lindblum City?

From the players' reaction, Hanjun thought someone from Lindblum City was challenging them, which made Father Barry so nervous.

When Hanjun met the person, he understood what was going on.

The man in the warlock's robe stood there with his arms crossed, looking around, but Father Barry was nowhere to be seen.

The man looked very familiar.

Early beta players would recognize him as Saradin, the mid-level warlock recruited by Viscount Hereford.

He had once dealt with a caravan from Ulon City to Lindblum City with Viscount Hereford and was later given a harsh beating by Hanjun, making him behave.

Now Hanjun understood why the players were so nervous and why Father Barry's tone seemed strange.

It made sense if it was Saradin.

Saradin entered Ulon City and waited a long time without seeing anyone.

When he finally saw Hanjun, he asked, "What's going on? Why does Ulon City look like this?"

He seemed to be somewhat disdainful of Ulon City, and Hanjun frowned immediately.

When Saradin saw Hanjun frown, his heart skipped a beat.
