Overgeared

Chapter 1953

‘Updates to be decided’ and ‘Update scheduled.’

Surprisingly, those were the names of the dimension that Judar had left behind. Originally, the update was undecided. Then, it was changed to scheduled.

Lauel looked shocked. Until now, the concept of updates didn’t exist in Satisfy because it was considered a utopia. The S.A. Group had been promoting Satisfy as a complete world, not a game. The game had never been updated because that would not make sense given how it was advertised.

However, the truth was that they had already created an area for an update.

Lauel thought about it for a while before sighing.

“I don’t find it that strange. Do you know what would happen if a game leaves the progress solely to its users for decades? It is common sense to have an update ready just in case.

The timing for finding this out must be a coincidence. The moment Your Highness killed a god and a dragon and received the Annihilation energy, ‘undecided area’ was changed to ‘scheduled area…’ I’m concerned that it might be a patch targeted at Your Majesty. Even if this isn’t the case, it will be incredibly difficult to deal with.”

The S.A. Group had already targeted Grid when they changed the rules of a few National Competitions. But, in the end, Grid had still won. He had swept up all the medals despite the S.A. Group’s efforts. He didn’t even bother to participate in the competition after that. Because of these shenanigans, the honor of the National Competition plummeted.

Grid snorted and shook his head.

“It doesn’t matter if this update is specifically targeting me. Judar was truly pitiful. He would’ve continued to create dimensions while only having a glimmer of hope that he would one day reach ‘reality’. But what ended up happening was that he was just invoking a space that already existed...”

Grid’s concern was strange. Regardless of the state of the update, he sympathized with Judar, who had been his enemy. This was Grid’s strong point. He formed relationships with countless beings and twisted the worldview.

“If Your Highness doesn’t mind, then it should be fine. In fact, the update will be welcomed by most people. It would generate a lot of new opportunities for us.”

Satisfy might be bigger than Earth, but it had long been criticized as a stagnant game as the power of the Overgeared Guild grew. Since the Guild had taken over most of the industrial capacity and the valuable land, many people felt deprived of resources. Many didn’t acknowledge the failures and efforts that the Overgeared members had put in to get to where they were today.

No matter the reason, ordinary players were relatively behind. They were stuck in a victim mentality, thinking they were the only ones at a loss. They sounded like communists as they shouted like parrots for equality, stating that the game should be fair for everyone. If the Overgeared Guild hadn’t solved the crisis, dozens of trucks would’ve blocked the buildings of the S.A. Group’s branch offices around the world every single day.

The new update would be an opportunity for the Overgeared Guild to finally draw a breath of relief. Grid would welcome the update with open arms as long as it had strong enemies.

Lauel thought for a moment before asking, “What does this upcoming update look like?”

Grid spoke slowly as he recalled the memory transmitted by Judar. “Like an endless desert. However, it is unusually humid. The weather changes from cold to hot repeatedly. There are four moons in the sky. I think the one that is slowly turning red might soon become the sun. I also noticed the remains of several buildings peeking from the sand. The architectural style seems familiar. It is no different from the buildings of Reinhardt or Titan.”

He had only seen a glimpse of this world for a moment, but it felt like he’d been trapped in there for at least an hour. He remembered a lot from what he had seen.

Lauel frowned.

“Is the update on a different planet? But civilization is the same as it is today... Is it foreshadowing something?”

“Why think about it in advance? Once the update is released later, we’ll know the details.”

Grid relaxed. He was very excited about the update, and had no reason to worry about it. No matter what new trials might appear, this was an opportunity for him to increase what he already had in possession. He was confident that he could overcome any ordeal without difficulty as long as he had Annihilation energy.
