Summary of the Login Before Others: Stone Age
But here’s where it got weird. The game? It wasn’t *just* a simulation. Some whispers started floating around – aliens! Using some high-tech called Knowledge Child. They weren't just building worlds; they were implanting one directly into our reality fabric, somehow.
Chen Ran was different from the get-go. Kicked out with a regression plot device, he snatched up three game-changing items: the Stainless Giant construction machine boosting build speeds ten thousandfold, an Elf’s Forest land amplifying farming and production by that huge factor, and crucially, access to the legendary "Light of Civilization" wonder granting immense cultural growth.
When the official launch happened a year later, players logged in, ready for the primitive struggle. Instead? They saw cities sprouting! Villages popping up faster than they thought possible. And whispers confirmed it – yeah, those SSS-grade boosts were real and terrifyingly effective. It was like watching history accelerate at impossible rates.
Fast forward another year, and things got scary. The aliens didn’t just want to play; they started pulling reality towards their own dimension, thinking Earth's human civilization had utterly collapsed under the game’s strange influence from way back.
Then Chen Ran did something unexpected. He wasn't hiding or playing it safe anymore. Standing on top of one of those ten-thousand-foot Star Destroyer Cannons – a piece of alien tech he somehow mastered – he yelled straight into the void: “Don’t look down on us humans! We’re not finished yet!”
