Chapter 122: New Soldiers in a New World
Entering the castle, what they saw were 16 statues, 8 on one side that showed the 4 Alliance races with the two genders available, and the 4 Horde races with the two genders available as well.
Many Players were still confused about what they would choose, but Hulk had no doubts as he walked to the portal that led to the Horde side.
As soon as he walked through the portal, Hulk felt an oddly familiar feeling.
He had been teleported to a white space, where in front of him was the cup of an Orc Warrior.
Looking at that body, Hulk wanted to reach out to touch it, but his hand just crossed the Orc\'s body, making Hulk understand that he was in an ethereal state.
It was like when he was in Bruce\'s consciousness, where he knew that body was his too, but he had no control over it.
Until at a thought of him, the Orc\'s bald head suddenly changed into a hairstyle much like his own.
Astonished, Hulk thought that the Orc would look cooler if he were bigger and more muscular, and just as he imagined, the Orc\'s body turned out exactly as Hulk had imagined.
Of course, only with a limitation on height because the race did not allow Orcs over 5 meters tall.
But seeing how he managed to customize the body of that Orc, Hulk got very excited and started using his mind to make the Orc more and more like him.
Since Hulk\'s thoughts were still very simple, because of his mentality that was like that of a child, the Oasis system had to deduce a lot of things he was thinking and use the closest approximation of what it was able to deduce to do the Orc\'s body as Hulk was imagining it.
Some details were still a little different from how he imagined it, but for Hulk, looking at such an imposing and powerful version of himself, for him it was perfect.
Confirming that he wanted the body this way, Hulk felt that the blank room was getting darker and darker until his vision was blurred.
Feeling a little wind brushing his body, Hulk was surprised and tried to open his eyes harder, until he finally managed to open them.
Looking around, Hulk found himself in a rustic tent.
Confused, he saw that he had gotten up from a sleeping bag on the floor and around him were hundreds of other bags just like his own.
Just as he woke up, other Orcs were also waking up confused as they looked around, but they had something in common, besides the confused expression, it was possible to see that these Orcs were all very excited.
Hulk looked down at his hands and was overjoyed to see those muscular green hands he was so familiar with.
Clenching his fists, Hulk felt a strength much stronger than he had in other Mojang games, a strength that finally made him more comfortable.
This strength was nowhere near his original strength, but Hulk felt very happy to see his strength recovering in this body.
Suddenly, when a few dozen Players had woken up, the fabric covering the entrance to the tent opened, revealing a powerful Orc wearing a Shaman outfit, followed by a delicate female Orc a little smaller than him.
Although the word "delicate" was used to describe this female Orc, that was only in comparison to the male Orcs, as her eight foot height was no joke, let alone the tight, toned muscles that lay ahead. shows between her armor.
"It looks like some of these soldiers have already woken up, that\'s great." The man in the Shaman outfit entered while looking at the Orcs who had just woken up.
"Since you were in a coma for the last few hours, I believe you don\'t remember well what\'s going on. You were the Orcs injured in the last monster invasion of the Valley of Trials, unfortunately, thousands of our comrades died in battle, while you stayed wounded, luckily it still holds your lives." The Orc explained. "Don\'t think that our battle is over, another wave of monsters will come in a short time and those who are able to battle will need to help us deal with these monsters, the survival of our Valley depends on you young fighters."
"The Hulk will fight!" Hulk was the first to respond, causing the other amazed Players to also make an effort to stand up and declare that they were ready for battle.
Seeing the passion for battle of these young Orcs, who despite being injured, still wanted to fight and protect the Valley from them, the Orc Shaman gave a satisfied smile as he spoke to the Female Orc beside him.
"Gona Quickfall, I will leave this group of young men to fight in your hands, I hope you will help them prepare for the upcoming battle to the best of your ability."
Hearing that, the female Orc nodded her head and replied in a military tone. "Don\'t worry Sir, I\'ll do my best!"
As more and more Players woke up around them, the Players who were already awake took the opportunity to familiarize themselves with their new bodies and prepare to start their adventurous journey in this new world.
Scenes like this were happening in every small town across Azeroth, on both the Horde and Alliance sides.
Initially Alex thought of making the Players spawn just like in the original game, but thinking about the confusion and chaos that this would generate because this game is a VRMMORPG with touch physics, he quickly gave up on this idea and came up with a new plan for the beginning of the Players in this world.
Using ideas from anime and novels he read in his previous life, Notch decided to make the NPCs and Players have independent stories, making each being unique, thus making the world more realistic and immersive.
Each Player would start in a small town and the more he advanced, the stronger he would get until when they finally reached the capital, the power of the players was already much greater.
Of course, Alex distributed a lot more resources around the world and enlarged the original game map several times, so the world would really look realistic and could accommodate the millions of Players that appeared without the structure of the world being affected.
Seeing the many different scenes happening around the world, Alex smiled as he thought about how he could go about turning these Players into the next human army against Thanos\' invasion.
