Chinchilla made use of the games visor and a human's identity to enter Closers World. He discovered he had become a dark, short and fat guy in the Beginner's Village.
Then he looked at the surrounding players and found all of them to be dark, short and fat. They looked different from the humans on Earth.
"Is this a dreamscape?" Chinchilla sensed the situation in Closers World."Giggle made an awareness country? This is prohibited."
An exclamation was heard from the surrounding and Chinchilla turned his head to see a group of dark shorties gazing at a white clean fat guy walking by.
"D*mn, this guy's white."
"He obtained the pure white skin item."
"This item's a treasure of a level 20 dungeon. The game has only gone online for a few days. He's very strong."
Chinchilla frowned as he could not understand the concept of online gaming. He could not figure out why they were exclaiming.
He did not know that in Closers World 2. 0's design, all beginners started as short, fat and ugly. To become beautiful or handsome, they had to conquer dungeons and complete missions to become taller, fairer, more beautiful and handsome.
...
In Zhao Yao's cafe.
Zhao Yao was sitting in front of the computer studying the games company's data about Closers World.
"The online gamers had breached 10 million and it's still growing." Zhao Yao nodded with satisfaction."The servers' capacity have to be expanded. Hehe, with the current trend, it's a matter of time before the numbers reach one billion."
He stroked his chin and thought, "Making Closers World as a dreamscape, I wonder if there's a limit for number of players? Is it able to sustain a billion people's awareness?"
Zhao Yao thought that he should find time to research Closers World's capacity.
He turned to look at Ning Ning and said, "Hey, you've mopped the floor beside me for half an hour. Tell me if you have things to say."
Ning Ning smiled in embarrassment as her eyes glanced at the computer's date and time."Good, my time was not changed."
After witnessing the endless work situation of Sun Jian and his companions, Ning Ning was suspicious daily as she was worried if she worked for nothing for the day.
She smiled and said, "Nothing, continue with your work and I'll continue with the mopping."
Zhao Yao frowned at Ning Ning as she left."She's acting weird and mysterious."
Matcha jumped into Zhao Yao's arms and said, "Zhao Yao! Latte's playing Closers World every day. Could you ban his game's account?"
"Yes." Cheese stood beside Zhao Yao and said, "Rice Cake hadn't gone offline for two days. I'm worried she may die of exhaustion."
"Two days online?" Zhao Yao was surprised."Did she eat, drink or use the bathroom?"
Seeing Cheese nodding, Zhao Yao said, "That's alright if she's eating, drinking and using the bathroom. Closers World's similar to dreaming and has a restorative effect. She will not die of exhaustion."
Matcha said, "If they play computer games daily, won't they waste their talents? If they don't know anything, what are they going to do when they grow up?"
"Yes, exactly." Cheese said, "Zhao Yao, please help. Ban their game accounts."
Zhao Yao shook his head and said, "My games company will not ban game accounts without reason."
Matcha said, "How about duration restrictions? How about half an hour per day for kittens?"
Zhao Yao stroke his chin and thought, "Duration restrictions?"
"Yes." Cheese nodded his head and said, "Cats below five years of age should only be allowed to play for half an hour." He thought, "If Rice Cake could get rid of her internet addiction, she'll have more time to lick my fur and play with me."
"Below five years of age?" Matcha was unhappy as a lot of his friends were unable to access Closers World."Five year old cats are already halfway in their graves and they aren't adults?"
Matcha looked disdainfully at Cheese."Rice Cake's quite old. She's no longer a kitten."
"What? What about Rice Cake? She's still a kitten in my eyes."
Zhao Yao waved to interrupt both cats."Enough. Whether it's human or cats, I won't set duration restrictions. Both of you may leave."
After pondering, Zhao Yao added, "Don't worry, I'll expand the supercats' academy. They'll study during the day and play in Closers World during bedtime."
As Y Academy's marketing officer, Matcha was surprised."Ah? Y Academy's expanding? Why was I not informed?"
"Hmm." Zhao Yao nodded and said, "I've decided with several large countries to develop supercats' nine year education. We hope the supercats to start schooling from six months to nine years of age."
Cheese was speechless.
Matcha was shocked."D*mn it. Aren't we stuck in school for most of our life?"
Zhao Yao nodded and said, "Yes, it's a joy to be in school. Once you are enrolled, you'll understand. Once you've graduated, you'll be nostalgic of your schooling days."
Matcha was even more astonished."We've got to go to school?"
Zhao Yao said, "Nonsense. You're not above nine years of age. Take a few days to study. You'll need to take the streaming exams for your level."
Matcha hugged Zhao Yao's leg with a pitiful face."Zhao Yao, please don't let me go to school. I don't want to study. I want to keep you company every day."
"No."
Matcha kept his wits."If we study, what about the business at Cat Wonderland Street? We've to work."
"I've thought about that." Zhao Yao said, "We are pushing for joyful, quality and a reduced load education. You'll be dismissed from school at 2:30pm and start work at 3pm until 10pm at night."
"You study in the day and work at night. Your life would be more fulfilling."
Matcha cried as he said, "D*mn if I'll be fulfilled."
Matcha and Cheese left dejectedly. When they returned to the Extradimensional Belly, they saw Uncle Egg smiling merrily as he said mysteriously, "Someone in your home's addicted to the internet?"
"Not respecting their father and brother?"
"Getting more rebellious and disrespectful?"
Uncle Egg smiled and said, "With more kittens addicted to the internet and gaming, Roly Poly and I started the Internet Addiction Clinic to treat internet addiction. Do you want to try?"
Uncle Egg's tail glimmered with blue electrical sparks.
...
In the cafe, Diana returned to the material realm from Closers World and shouted at Zhao Yao, "Zhao.... Zhao Zhao Zhao Zhao..."
"What's happening?" Zhao Yao looked at the Level 22 Diana and caressed her head as he said, "You're a Level 22 supercat. Be more mature."
After Closers World went online, Diana's level skyrocketed. She was immune to 99% of all physical attacks and her power-up factor was 220%.
Zhao Yao estimated that the upgrades were not unlimited. After increasing five levels, Diana would reach a new bottleneck.
Diana shouted loudly, "An alien cat intruded Closers World!"
"What? I have to ban his account. Wait..." Zhao Yao waved his and said, "Don't act recklessly. I'll monitor him for 24 hours and look at the situation."
