Woke Up to Find the Game I Made Came True -
Chapter 202
A month had passed, and with more player territories gaining the ability to perform Void Captures, along with the assistance brought by Divine Summoning, the first wave of mainstream interstellar players finally reached Level 60, becoming third-tier professionals.
At the same time, due to Resource Point Wars and territorial conflicts, player territories across different civilizations had undergone significant changes compared to the earlier peaceful development phase. These changes further rippled into the real world—some civilizations flourished thanks to the Infinite Realms, while long-standing galactic powers began to decline after suffering defeats in the game.
Amidst the turbulent shifts in the landscape, White Night City remained the untouchable, transcendent force no one dared to provoke, whether in territorial disputes or resource battles.
And even if one ignored White Night City, its presence was impossible to miss, thanks to the constant server-wide announcements:
[Congratulations! White Night City has nurtured its fourth Master-level professional!]
…
[Congratulations! White Night City has nurtured its fifth Master-level professional!]
If the first three announcements had been shocking, the subsequent ones left players numb. Other territories weren’t neglecting professional training—they had managed to cultivate Advanced-level professionals. But the leap from Advanced to Master was monumental.
Even if players completed personal quests to "poach" talent, few could achieve breakthroughs like Dilina and Claire, who directly ascended to Master rank. Their success was tied to Ye Bai altering the quest conditions, effectively raising the difficulty.
Whether it was the Weaving Clan’s fabrics or the Life Fruit, these were high-tier substitutes for the original quest rewards—items Ye Bai could easily obtain through the Divine Realm, while other players had no access at all.
Another method was self-cultivation, but most territories had only acquired second-tier academic knowledge at best. Without theoretical foundations, mere skill proficiency couldn’t bridge the gap.
Moreover, the emergence of Resource Point Wars meant that all territories capable of Void Captures had shifted their focus there.
Only White Night City could afford to invest wholeheartedly in nurturing top-tier professionals—and actually succeed.
…
Seated upon the Divine Throne, Ye Bai received a flurry of system notifications:
[Your territory’s Advanced Engineer, ‘Carrie,’ has had a moment of inspiration under guidance and become a ‘Grand Engineer.’]
[Achievement Unlocked: Yet Another Master]
[Title Obtained: Hall of Engineering]
…
[Your territory’s Advanced Blacksmith, ‘Vider,’ has had a moment of inspiration under guidance and become a ‘Forgemaster.’]
[Achievement Unlocked: And Yet Another Master]
[Title Obtained: Hall of Forging]
Carrie had long been on the verge of breaking through to Master rank. Now, with third-tier Alchemical knowledge and guidance from Nao, the King of Void Spirits, her ascension was inevitable.
Vider’s breakthrough came slightly later. According to Nao, this blacksmith—who had worked in White Night City since its village days—had his bottleneck shattered after encountering Walsh. Though Walsh himself wasn’t skilled in forging, the infernal aura he carried, embodying flame and creation, had sparked an epiphany.
After all, even Felix, back when he was still the "Sunshine Boy," had been stationed at the forge as a passive buff, subtly boosting skill proficiency.
Then, Ye Bai closed her eyes once more. She could feel it—the time had come.
Soon, players attempting to use the [Divine Summoning] function found it inexplicably gone from the Seed of Genesis interface.
"Rumble…"
At the same time, a faint, indescribable tremor rippled through the world.
No matter which server or region they were in, every player who looked up at the sky saw a hazy, indistinct shadow looming overhead—unless they were in an instance.
The news spread like wildfire across the interstellar network. After verification, players realized this was no glitch. The function had vanished as abruptly as it had appeared.
The Seed of Genesis (or Tree) reverted to its original state, offering no new features. The previously summoned Divine Realm experts remained, but once their contracts expired, they would return to the Divine Realm.
The Divine Summoning function had been a temporary bridge created by Ye Bai using her administrator privileges and console commands—essentially turning herself into a "data cable" between the Divine Realm and the Infinite Realms. Now that she had gathered enough energy to officially launch the expansion, this makeshift gacha system naturally disappeared.
The disappearance sent shockwaves through the player base. The benefits of Divine Summoning were undeniable, and research teams across civilizations scrambled to investigate.
Soon, through the summoned Divine Realm experts, they arrived at the most plausible explanation:
"The Divine Realm is about to connect with the Infinite Realms. We’ll be able to enter the Divine Realm through a place called the [Void Corridor], and Divine Realm experts will no longer need contracts to freely visit our world."
"So Divine Summoning is gone for good? Well… better make the most of the remaining time and strengthen ties with the summoned experts then."
After analysis, every major civilization lamented the loss of Divine Summoning. A contract guaranteed a baseline goodwill—without it, players would need to meet specific conditions to even interact with Divine Realm figures.
Now, when players looked up at the shadow in the sky, their gazes were filled with intrigue and anticipation.
…
As dusk approached, Nao walked alone through the streets, arriving at the true heart of White Night City—the vicinity of the Seed of Genesis.
He looked up at the shadow in the sky, now infused with the aura of the Divine Realm. It had appeared five days ago, growing more solid with each passing day, gradually taking the form of a gateway.
That was the [Void Corridor], the bridge between the Divine Realm and the Infinite Realms. When the time came, a staircase would manifest.
The King had said the appearance of this staircase would herald the complete disappearance of the Great Annihilation.
The Seed of Genesis glowed faintly, surrounded not just by magical barriers but also a unique, impenetrable shield—one that could be broken by force but never bypassed unnoticed.
This was the system’s exclusive privilege granted to players.
Seeing this, Nao opened his palm, revealing a flickering point of light.
The light point resonated with the barrier, and the barrier permitted Nao's entry.
Then, with solemn reverence, he placed his hand upon the Tree of Genesis—a sacred entity that only Ye Bai had ever been able to control in the past.
In the next moment, a golden light flashed, and the already massive, luxuriant branches of the Tree of Genesis swayed and rustled, rapidly growing even more expansive.
"Bong… bong… bong…"
The bells of White Night City rang out, signaling the start of a territory upgrade—a familiar process for its residents.
Thanks to the relentless efforts of the Four Kings of the Divine Realm (excluding Autofis) over the past three months, White Night City had soared like a rocket. Its cultural education, infrastructure, military, economy, and talent pool had all experienced explosive growth.
Even Ye Bai herself felt that the city's lavish upgrades were almost unfair compared to other players' territories. The enhancements had propelled White Night City's overall strength to unprecedented heights, surpassing not only other player-held lands but even well-established NPC capitals by a significant margin.
At the very least, no other city could boast as many master-level professionals as White Night City now did.
Among the requirements for reaching a Level 10 territory, the most challenging was securing ten top-tier professionals. This condition was met once Vider ascended to master rank, as the Divine Realm’s Five Kings—whose divine-tier professions exceeded master level—were also counted.
Even Kraken, who seemed the least scholarly among the Five Kings, held the title of Divine Ocean Scholar. Her knowledge came from an unusual source: digestion. Every creature she consumed granted her related knowledge.
As night fell, the residents of White Night City, as usual, concluded their work and returned home. The city’s combat personnel also received the same orders.
"Are we really not allowed to join the fight?" Felix asked Blaze in the barracks, disappointment evident in his voice.
Blaze shook his head. "Teacher Nao already informed us—today’s defense doesn’t require our involvement."
"Ah… with Kraken and Walsh around, there really isn’t much for us to do anyway…"
Felix sighed, recalling their recent experiences capturing void creatures alongside Walsh and Kraken. A mix of admiration and resignation colored his expression.
Blaze nodded in agreement.
Once capable of holding their own, the two now found themselves relegated to the role of "experience boosters." Walsh, the battle-hungry King of the Inferno, wielded skills of pure destruction.
Even in the nightmare-difficulty void capture instances, no enemy exceeded Level 80, and the only difference from regular mobs was their slightly sturdier health pools.
If Walsh took charge of this territory defense, it would likely end as swiftly as their void hunts.
"Still," Blaze added thoughtfully, "I once overheard Teacher Nao mention that this time, it won’t be those two handling things. Haven’t you noticed? Kraken is one thing, but Walsh always enters the void rifts after us—he’s never appeared in the territory itself."
Felix blinked, processing this. "You’re right… So who is leading the defense? The Queen? Or… could it be Teacher Nao himself?"
His curiosity flared. There was no doubt Nao was a terrifyingly powerful figure—the glimpse of his abilities during their soul-burn treatment had been merely the tip of the iceberg.
"No," Blaze replied, his expression turning slightly odd. "Teacher only said, ‘It’s time to put that idle one to work.’"
Felix mentally ran through every possible candidate but came up empty. "Who else is even left to be ‘idle’?"

As the final milestone in player territory development, a Level 10 upgrade would undoubtedly face the strongest monster assault yet.
The scattered players expelled from the city, though fewer in number due to the Divine Realm summons, still included a fair share of interstellar agents stationed at their usual posts, observing White Night City’s latest ascent.
Amid the tense, storm-brewing atmosphere, the residential district lay silent behind closed doors.
Only by the bakery, a lone donkey lifted its head skyward and yawned.
