Zhu Zhengwei left immediately after putting down the child.

After all, raising this child himself?

Not realistic!

He believed that this Shell Maiden could have a good childhood within her own race!

"Hmm, twenty years... Just enough time to sleep, and early tomorrow, I'll take them away." Zhu Zhengwei exited the Four-dimensional World, his consciousness returning to the dormitory.

He glanced to the other side.

Chang'e Palace, having crazily devoured oceanic creatures, had completely reverted to its normal size.

How big is it?

Four thousand seven hundred meters in total length!

Equivalent to the length of a hundred and fifty blue whales together!

This was originally a small maritime city, and back in the day, it could accommodate a vast area, later ascending to the sky to haul a moon, without such size, it would have been impossible.

"But, am I playing too big?"

Zhu Zhengwei's expression was a bit peculiar.

But he quickly dismissed it.

Even if the volume of the Asian continent sank to the seafloor, he had confidence it wouldn't be discovered.

It's easy to hide 10% of a 70% land area, especially considering the current situation?

"Boom!"

From Zhu Zhengwei's perspective.

This ancient ship, Chang'e Palace, continuously opened up an area of deep-sea rock, constantly excavating, forming a huge "concave" basin to accommodate the Shell Race!

The next morning.

Zhu Zhengwei re-entered the Four-dimensional World.

At this time, amidst innumerable magnificent oceanic buildings, waves surged, and fish swam past.

In those days, the Shell Maiden craftsmen of long-lived species showed no signs of aging after twenty years, except that they now had a lively little shell girl by their side.

"You have learned all our skills..."

"The rest is up to you to explore on your own!"

"After all, we don't have powerful realms; although we research ourselves, there are many shortcomings!"

"In the future, as you follow the deity to other worlds, you should be careful, learn a lot, and see a lot..."

...

They regarded this clan member as the hope of the entire race, tirelessly teaching her, providing her with the best of everything.

At this moment, in a palace.

"The day of the covenant with the deity has arrived."

"Yes."

Inside the huge white shell palace, several strong individuals appeared solemn.

Only to see a distant light slowly flickering, and amidst the void, a divine being walked slowly towards them with warm, sacred light.

"What is your name?"

"Beina."

"Come with me."

Zhu Zhengwei turned around and took her away slowly.

Beina looked back at her clansmen with deep reluctance, and in her youthful innocence, she couldn't help but ask, "Can I come back?"

"You will return soon, and in different forms, you will always watch over your people, and even help them," Zhu Zhengwei smiled gently.

"Okay." The little girl was obedient and sensible.

"Close your eyes, I'm going to take you to another world now." Zhu Zhengwei's smile was gentle, giving the impression of a spring breeze.

"Yes." Her expression, however, was slightly trembling, as she shrank into the shell.

Wow!

Earth.

In the Pacific Ocean region.

In a deep sea, an ancient ship lay quietly at the seabed, and beside it was a large concave pit, in which a huge and plump scallop was dreaming.

This Earth's scallop "dreamed" that she went to an Otherworld, became a Shell Maiden, and then took on the race's trust, bearing countless hopes...

Crack!

The scallop slowly opened its shell, its eyes glancing inside, lying a cute little girl about seven or eight years old, "Where is this? Did I travel through time? Have I arrived in an Otherworld?"

No.

This is reality.

Zhu Zhengwei naturally wouldn't say that to her, but instead said, "This is the Otherworld! In an ancient sanctuary!"

"Oh, I see."

She curiously looked around at the swimming fish, thinking these creatures looked familiar, similar to most of the ecology in their world.

"Next, what you need to do is to lay eggs here and reproduce the next batch of your kind," Zhu Zhengwei explained. Their species could reproduce asexually.

"I understand."

She nodded.

To her, this task was not complicated.

Soon, a large bunch of embryos was bred.

"In this way, I'll transport this second batch of children back to the Four-dimensional World and accelerate their growth... When they grow up, they can return." Zhu Zhengwei was well-prepared, knowing the long-lived species had a lengthy maturity period, which took twenty or thirty years. He couldn't wait that long in reality.

Wow!

Zhu Zhengwei, following the same pattern, brought another bunch of children, giving them to the Shell Race inside to raise.

Ready-made babysitters shouldn't be wasted.

After several rounds, in just a few days, Zhu Zhengwei had transformed over three thousand individuals of the Shell Race via four-dimensional projection on the seafloor of the Pacific, all over twenty years old, lying quietly in the underwater crater, communicating with each other.

The marvels of time discrepancy are truly astounding; in just a few days, a race appeared on the seabed.

The sea race miners, ready to go.

"Is this the Otherworld?"

"Ah, it's Beina's mother!"

"We need to be cautious, it might be dangerous here!"

"We are too weak."

...

They looked at each other, lurking in the deep sea, observing everything.

Seeing the number before him, Zhu Zhengwei judged it was about right, and came again, saying:

"I believe you also feel it; the Qi in this world is thinner compared to the Ancestral Witch World... To cultivate, you can only meditate by entering 'The World,' a divine artifact crossing dimensions."

"Meditation?"

They were very puzzled.

Zhu Zhengwei did not offer much explanation and directly turned each of them into a Dream Miner server, pulling them into the world.

And informed them,

"You will return to your homeland, but in the form of an Immortal Herb. There are Immortal Herbs from other worlds; do not reveal your location and identity to others to avoid danger!"

"Immortal Herb? We will become Immortal Herbs?"

Their pupils dilated. These weak members of the Sea Race had never seen such a situation. They felt this information was utterly shattering their worldview.

"We... we understand." This tribe was very cautious.

Constantly calculating in their hearts, that they would actually become Immortal Herbs?

This was very bizarre. The specific process was unclear, and it must be like walking on thin ice.

Zhu Zhengwei, seeing this, thought to himself, "With this, another batch of players appears... As for those Earth players, find these players' abnormalities?"

Hehehe.

Browsing the internet online, can you know if the other person is male or female, human or ghost, playing the game with you?

Even if the other person speaks very strangely, they would think it's just "chuunibyou," with some silly players messing around.

After all, a very realistic problem: if you're chatting online with someone and they suddenly say they're an Ultraman from the M78 Nebula here to save Earth, would you believe it?

You'd find this person rather amusing.

Zhu Zhengwei issued a new announcement.

Ding!

[Closed Beta Version 0.6 Update Notice (Online Update, Will Not Affect Any Player's Game Experience)]

[Version Data Pack: Immortal Herb Growth Chapter Concludes, Current Version Data Pack: Immortal Herb Reproduction.]

Major updates are as follows:

[1, Develop new map, new race, new era dynasty, specifics can be explored independently.]

[2, Expand the "World" game server, an estimated total of 40,000 new closed beta slots.]

[3, Open new gameplay, players are invited to explore independently.]

[4, Fix a small number of potential bugs]

....

Since the new version was updated, Zhu Zhengwei casually let another batch of Earth players in, mixing in the Fish-man players to make it less conspicuous.

Moreover, Zhu Zhengwei's strategy was quite dirty.

He had another plan to act as a precaution.

He planned to secretly post: "New Player Activity: Suggest new players pretend to be creatures from the Otherworld, enter this world to play the game, as spectators."

Whether this post goes viral or not, as long as it gets seen by someone, it's fine.

This way, even if those players notice something unusual, those simple Shell Race accidentally let it slip, they'd think it's a participant in a "little activity."

It would be a minor insurance, better than nothing.

Yet suddenly, he sat in his dormitory, watching the two goofy roommates next to him eagerly shouting, "Brothers, it's updated again!"

"Whoa! Updated!"

"Hurry up post a review, let's stir things up!"

They shouted.

Zhu Zhengwei had a moment of insight, these two guys always plotting against him, why not use their backstabbing to his advantage?

He pretended to be kind, saying, "Ah, you two doing it this way has no heart. How about we organize a welcome event?"

Zhu Zhengwei suggested, persuading new players to pretend as Immortal Herbs from the Otherworld, and the two immediately clapped, "Great idea! This sounds fun!"

Thus, the whole forum was in turmoil again, the famous Immortal Herb girl, Super Sweetheart Circle, posted, initiating this new player event, making everyone find it interesting.

"Hahaha, this is fun."

"If I enter the game, I would definitely say I'm speaking Martian and tell everyone I'm a killing mat Martian from the Otherworld."

"I'd say I'm a Saiyan."

Some people found it amusing.

But others opposed, sneering:

"Boring, chuunibyou."

"A bunch of idiots."

...

For Zhu Zhengwei, the number of participants wasn't important.

What mattered was having this title.

But just when Zhu Zhengwei thought he had completely mastered the situation, an unexpected event happened that he hadn't anticipated.

A few people had already been waiting in secret for something to happen.

"It's now!"

Zheng Weiwei slapped the table and loudly said, "Grandpa, it's updated again, we feel it's time to help, we can release the joint statement we've been preparing for long, claiming this game is our research, giving it a clean background, and then help vigorously promote it!"

"Yes, we've been preparing for so long... It's ready to be officially released to the public, we are to help the gods, drive history, and the Spiritual Awakening."

Professor Zheng said, "After all, the deity created this game, although it will eventually become popular… But our promotion can make people pay more attention."

"Yeah, I have the same feeling."

Professor Zeng Ciwen, standing in front of a mirror, looking at himself as if decades younger, found it amazing, "I always have this memory... that Otherworld, the Ancestral Witch era… feels familiar."

"And some fragments, some knowledge of super Genetic Technology are vaguely showing up in my mind." He looked complicated, frowning, "My technology has surpassed modern genetics..."

"Do people really have past lives?"

He stood there, dumbfounded.

"That deity who came to save me at the hospital before, said they knew me, perhaps not in this life, but in a distant past life?"

"In a past life, I was a scholar like the one from the Old Days sanctuary, so in this life, living on Earth, I naturally had a passion for biology, walking this path?"

Like Zheng Linshou, he too received fragmented memory feedback.

But unlike Zheng Linshou's useless memories, his opened the civilization of genetic engineering as a sage of a generation, the importance of the feedback knowledge is self-evident.

"Since the Ancestral Witch World has awakened, so should our Earth!"

Zeng Ciwen spoke.

He actually exuded an aura and momentum only found in a Great Emperor, oppressing the two next to him until they couldn't breathe,

"Then, let the 'World' be said to be developed by me, let the world's spotlight fall on me, and also settle a cause and effect with that deity."

Soon, they also drafted an official announcement, and when it was released, the entire online world was hit by an unexpected storm, even Earth's entire civilization encountered a turning point.

"Several renowned domestic professors, having researched diligently for thirty years, the world's first-generation human brain virtual game is completely born."

Zhu Zhengwei: "..."

In the dormitory, Zhu Zhengwei was still spying on the two's posts, thinking he had control over the situation, but he was completely dumbfounded, always feeling that there were crafty people plotting against him.
