On March 29, 2030, a nation emerged from the ashes of a seventy-year-long war. Once ravaged by conflict, it now stood as a beacon of hope, boasting a coveted geography, cutting-edge technology, and groundbreaking scientific advancements.

In the midst of this transformation, a tenacious scientist worked tirelessly to improve the lives of the people. Their efforts bore fruit in the form of sleek jet-capable vehicles, virtual watches that rivaled smartphones, and an array of sophisticated innovations designed to deliver unparalleled convenience.

The government, once plagued by instability, now stood firm as a bastion of stability. Focused on the welfare of its citizens, it spared no effort in providing top-notch public amenities.

Streets bustled with life as meticulously planned infrastructure facilitated the daily movements of the community. Despite a tax burden of approximately 60%, the people bore it with equanimity, confident that every dollar was judiciously utilized under the government’s watchful eye.

Financial prowess became a cornerstone of their lifestyle as the people became adept at discerning between extravagant desires and essential needs. Corruption and gambling found no refuge here as swift and resolute actions against any transgressions ensured that the economic fabric remained untarnished.

The police force played a pivotal role in upholding the nation’s legal sanctity and bolstering its thriving employment landscape. And at the heart of this prosperous panorama stood a company renowned for its towering reputation and unwavering commitment to quality and community welfare.

The Skynet Company emerged as a titan of collaboration, joining hands with the government to uplift lives across all echelons.

Their collective endeavor was born of sweat, toil, and substantial financial investments spanning five to six years. Every ounce of effort poured into their monumental project yielded dividends that far surpassed initial expectations.

The journey towards transformation was meticulously mapped out, beginning with thorough observations, considerations, and problem formulation.

Precise location surveys were conducted and community opinions gathered to preclude any potential discord. As the groundwork unfolded, the government expedited fund allocation based on comprehensive reports from the company.

Within this dynamic environment, a subset of company personnel and enterprising start-ups embraced workdays stretching thirteen hours, their unwavering dedication fueling their accomplishments.

The result was a nation transformed, a shining example of what can be achieved through collaboration and determination.

The Skynet Company set out to redefine gaming excellence with their ambitious project, the “Alvarest Game.” While the gaming landscape had seen several virtual releases, none had managed to secure a foothold due to issues with cost and stagnant updates.

The journey was arduous, filled with sleepless nights and relentless perseverance. But as the last pieces fell into place, jubilation cascaded through the halls of the company. The virtual realm they had meticulously crafted was ready, a testament to their unwavering commitment.

On May 31, 2031, the Alvarest Game was unleashed upon an eager audience. The nation’s media embraced the momentous occasion, spreading the news far and wide. Even the distant corners of the countryside resonated with the triumphant tale.

A month of anticipation hung in the air as players eagerly awaited the release of the coveted game. Delays were attributed to the meticulous documentation required to meet stringent legal standards, a necessary precaution due to the history of controversial games that had stirred turmoil within the local community.

The excitement surrounding the Alvarest Game extended far beyond the borders of its home nation. Promotional gameplay videos showcased a world of breathtaking visuals and captivating challenges.

Strategic prowess was key to ascending through levels with no discernible cap, and reaching the pinnacle unlocked not only a revered realm but also the power to make a solitary wish.

The Skynet Company announced that only 600 players would be granted access to ensure a seamless experience. An exclusive window to purchase the game beckoned, with 500 thousand copies reserved for domestic enthusiasts and 100 thousand for international aficionados.

Upon acquisition, players embarked on their Alvarest journey armed with comprehensive packages. Two months elapsed as 600 thousand eager adventurers flooded in. Airtight security measures ensured a serene atmosphere with no reported thefts.

Yet for every triumphant player, there remained a host of unfulfilled dreams. Out of 600 thousand hopefuls, 20 million souls remained locked out, sidelined by time constraints or familial disapproval.

While some were financially endowed but chose to abstain, for others, gaming was deemed an unworthy distraction from their daily pursuits.

The gateway to the virtual realm opened, revealing a lobby where players were ushered through informative videos elucidating game mechanics.

Armed with newfound knowledge, they congregated on a dedicated server, embracing the opportunity to casually interact with the virtual universe and its intricately crafted inhabitants.

Before venturing deeper, the creation of an alias became a necessary ritual, a measure ensuring the players' true identities remained veiled in the digital expanse.

As the veil lifted, the thrill of exploration intertwined with an insatiable curiosity, driving players to test the uncharted waters of this brave new world. The game's temporality, however, acted as a gentle reminder, a discreet prompt urging moderation in the midst of enchantment.

In this realm, harmony reigned as the Skynet Company's judiciously crafted rules curbed toxic behaviors. The simplicity of these guidelines defied their impact, a testament to thoughtful design that resonated with the community.

Diverse games awaited, each offering a surge of adrenaline and the potential for consecutive victories that bestowed a tangible advantage upon their victors.

There were no problems with the popular game and a person in a blue and white jacket, short stature and still with a hazy face, saw the interesting game activity. He was very happy with the game and wanted to join them, with some manipulated settings. 

His grin stretched wide, an eager anticipation that tugged at the corners of his lips. The allure of the virtual realm beckoned, promising to nestle itself in the palm of his hand, a universe awaiting his exploration and dominion.

The virtual expanse unfurled before him; an entrancing tapestry woven by countless lines of code. The game, celebrated by a multitude, extended a gracious welcome—one that masked the shadowy orchestrator lurking behind the scenes, an enigma concealed from prying eyes.

The community reveled in the game's newfound glory, a collective jubilation echoing in the virtual corridors.

Yet, amidst this symphony of delight, a figure shrouded in darkness cast a sinister gaze. Their intentions were nefarious, veiled behind those eyes that bore an inscrutable malevolence.

In the newly unveiled virtual realm of the Alvarest Game, curiosity danced in the hearts of many. But for one enigmatic entity, it was a canvas upon which to sketch a malevolent design.

The carefully calibrated allure of the game’s Level System was a subtle masterpiece, promising easy progression and heightened effectiveness. However, every facet of this labyrinthine design was meticulously planned to ensnare players without granting passage to mere indulgence.

Amidst his machinations, a core truth gnawed at him. He yearned to witness the spectrum of emotions his grand scheme would ignite.

A gentle gust of wind whispered of an impending storm as the moonlight cast elongated shadows upon the ground. “Time for action!” he declared, his voice carrying a blend of determination and malice. Hovering above the ground, he surveyed the domain before him.

His purpose was stark and chilling—to turn this digital utopia into a cataclysm, a disaster meticulously tailored for his sadistic pleasure.
