: In the distant future of 2100, the devastating effects of global warming have rendered Earth's natural surface uninhabitable, plunging humanity into a new ice age. Forced to seek refuge in massive enclosed cities, life for the remaining population is harsh and unforgiving. But amidst the chaos and struggle, there is one escape - video games. Considered the "opium of the people," video games provide a temporary reprieve from the overwhelming reality of life in these immense metropolises. And in this world, the release of the first fully immersive VRMMORPG, Horus, was a game-changer. Developed entirely by an independent AI, Horus quickly made all other games seem insignificant in comparison. However, as with any new technology, it wasn't long before megacorporations saw the potential for profit and monopolized on the wealth that Horus offered its players. People like Alexander became slaves to their virtual lives, working tirelessly to make money for the very companies that controlled them. Tragically, Alexander's dedication to the game ultimately led to his death from exhaustion. But then something miraculous happened. Alexander woke up, nine years earlier, on the day before Horus was set to launch. With a second chance at life, he vowed to do things differently. Armed with knowledge of the future, he would become the strongest player and never allow anyone to take advantage of him again. This story takes place in an MMORPG where the main objective is to explore and conquer space. It draws inspiration from two popular works, The Reincarnation of the Strongest Sword God and the Legendary Mechanic. While the theme of overpowering may be present, it is not simply a stroke of luck or fate for the main character. Instead, it is a result of their calculated and opportunistic choices. Coherence and consistency are important elements in this story, ensuring that every action and consequence is thoughtfully crafted.
