Woke Up to Find the Game I Made Came True-Chapter 134
The owner of this "Lucky Starship" was a small team called Red Peak. In the chaotic starry seas, there were countless similar groups or lone wolves—their identities ranging from star hunters and mercenaries to space pirates. Sometimes they fit neatly into one category, other times they dabbled in a bit of everything.
After snagging this simple transport mission in the trading zone, the team had assumed they’d be picking up someone no stronger than a C-class figure. The job carried an implied undertone of protection, but they never expected to arrive at the rendezvous point and find a B-class powerhouse waiting outside their ship, now knocking on the hull for them to open the door…
For a B-class expert, acquiring a starship should’ve been child’s play. Was there some hidden trap in this mission?
Captain Red Peak was a cautious woman. In those fleeting moments, countless thoughts raced through her mind. But remembering that the task had been posted by a five-star heavyweight, she dismissed her doubts.
The chaotic starry seas lived up to their name—even the trading platforms weren’t entirely safe. Many outlaws used transactions as a front for robbery and murder. Here, star ratings didn’t just represent the number and difficulty of completed missions—they also stood for credibility.
If a deal wasn’t confirmed by the client, it wouldn’t count toward completion stats. In other words, everyone who had ever closed a deal with this powerhouse was still alive.
And there was something even more crucial: the strongest member of their team was Captain Red Peak herself, a mid-tier C-class. If they backed out now, the polite B-class expert outside would probably toss them onto the barren planet below before they could blink.
Click!
Captain Red Peak pressed the button, and the side hatch slid open.
Ye Bai, riding a gust of high-altitude wind, flew into the roughly ten-meter-long, eight-meter-wide "flatfish" of a starship.
The four crew members inside instinctively fixed their gazes on her.
When they noticed Ye Bai’s ever-shifting appearance, their pupils contracted in recognition—this was the 60-point "Formless Mimicry" ability!
Honestly, 60 Stellar Points could buy them a ship like theirs outright.
An eerie silence settled over the cabin.
Ye Bai’s eyes swept over the four crew members. They belonged to fairly common cosmic races, except for one hulking giant-blooded member who stood three to four meters tall, his head nearly brushing the ceiling as he sat cramped in his seat.
Still, after her rescue mission on Makur Star, Ye Bai had encountered plenty of rare interstellar species. This didn’t faze her much—and even if it had, she wouldn’t let it show.
A quick psychic scan confirmed they were all C-class, which eased her mind. At least safety wasn’t a concern.
"Hello," Ye Bai greeted them amiably.
This was her first time hitching a ride with strangers, and she’d been a little nervous—but seeing how tense they were, her own anxiety melted away.
"Y-You… hello!" Captain Red Peak snapped out of her daze. "Please, have a seat."
The central seat was vacated, while the other three crew members shrank toward the edges like startled mice, trying to make themselves invisible.
Even the usually boisterous giant-blooded member sat stiffly, lips sealed, suddenly the picture of shyness.
With a B-class powerhouse—possibly the five-star heavyweight herself—sitting right beside them, the pressure weighed heavily on Red Peak’s crew. Even the most outgoing among them turned introverted.
Settling into her seat, Ye Bai scanned the ship again with her eyes and psychic senses, taking in every detail.
To her surprise, the tech level of this chaotic starry seas vessel didn’t seem far beyond the Star Alliance’s standards.
Back on Makur Star, she’d studied the private ship of the Aurora Corps in detail. Compared to the tech available in the exchange terminal, this ship lagged in aesthetics, comfort, and speed—though it made up for it with an arsenal of defensive and offensive weapons.
If the Aurora’s ship was a sports car, this was a weaponized off-roader.
As Ye Bai sat down, Captain Red Peak, now in the pilot’s seat, asked cautiously, "Shall we… depart?"
"Sure," Ye Bai agreed, then added, "Should I confirm the transaction status now?"
Confirming would transfer the five points to the crew’s account.
This being her first time using a starship hitchhike service, Ye Bai wanted to be considerate—pay upfront to put the sellers at ease.
Unexpectedly, the ship lurched from an abrupt piloting error at her words. Captain Red Peak hurriedly said, "No, no! Please, only confirm once we arrive!"
"Oh… alright." Ye Bai tilted her head. "Is there a problem with confirming early?"
One of the crew members chimed in, "Well… if you confirm early but the mission isn’t done, it could lead to… misunderstandings. Or, uh, unnecessary disputes."
Ye Bai paused, then understood. The trading zone’s star ratings were tied to credibility, but without strict oversight on transactions, they were worried she might backtrack after closing the deal. Truly, the chaotic starry seas lived up to their name.
She tried making small talk to learn more about the region, but with her own identity to conceal, she couldn’t probe too deeply—and the crew’s nervousness made the conversation stilted. After a while, she only gleaned that they were currently in the fringe sectors of the chaotic starry seas, while their destination—the Jici Transit Hub—was closer to the central regions, the most bustling hub within ten light-years.
The crew had just wrapped up a planetary exploration mission nearby and were heading to Jici for resupply.
With the ship’s warp drive, the jump to Jici would take about three hours. frёewebnoѵēl.com
Realizing she wouldn’t get much more out of them, Ye Bai stopped pressing. She didn’t dive into the Ten Thousand Realms either, instead focusing on studying her newly acquired personal terminal.
Currently, she’d embedded the terminal beneath the skin of her arm.
Though it sounded alarming, like Star Alliance terminals, this jade-like device could be nano-implanted via psychic guidance. Compared to skin pores, the terminal was fine as a sieve—sliding it under the skin was completely painless.
In her mind, three familiar zones surfaced—the mission area and the exchange area remained unchanged as always. Ye Bai entered the trading zone, which best reflected the chaotic nature of the Star Sea, and used its filtering function to sift through the flood of transactions—hundreds per second—searching for content that piqued her interest.
Her first question was one of curiosity: Were there players from Boundless in the Chaotic Star Sea? And if so, how did they access the game?
Based on Ye Bai’s research, though the jade terminal seemed capable of real-time universal communication like the Star Network, she hadn’t found any trace of the familiar Star Network or Boundless access points after some searching.
Filtering for keywords like Boundless and Star Network, a flood of transaction listings instantly appeared before her.
‘Resource Trade—Star Network account, standard civilian identity, clean record, 100 points, long-term deal.’
‘Resource Trade—Boundless gold coins exchanged for points, 1:2 ratio, in-person trade available in the Copper Ancient Star Sector, mail fees at your expense.’
‘Intel Trade—Complete Boundless Shadow Knight class-change quest item bundle, 20 points, non-negotiable.’
‘Resource Trade—Boundless Tier-1 skill book, rare item, only one available. Bidding open, highest offer wins.’
‘Resource Trade—Star Network account…’
Well, this was just as lively as the Star Alliance’s player base.
Good thing Ye Bai hadn’t asked the Red Peak squad if they’d heard of Boundless—it might’ve raised unnecessary suspicion.
Beyond direct Boundless-related trades, there was no shortage of Star Network intel. From these listings, Ye Bai gathered that the Chaotic Star Sea also had plenty of Boundless players, though they couldn’t access the game through the jade terminal. Instead, they relied on underground channels to purchase Star Alliance terminals.
Using these fake accounts wasn’t difficult. Personal terminal identities were essentially tied to civilizations within the Star Alliance. Advanced civilizations were one thing, but in underdeveloped ones, not everyone had access to personal terminals or Star Network registration—though their planetary citizenship still granted them account eligibility.
Where the water is too clear, there are no fish. These unused account credentials could be funneled through various channels, allowing Chaotic Star Sea residents to assume them.
There were even profit-driven groups like the Makur Corporation, where employees lived and died within the company, making it all too easy to fabricate newborn identities for sale.
Star Alliance accounts were already a common commodity in the Chaotic Star Sea. Someone like Ye Bai, who’d obtained a Chaotic Star Sea identity in reverse, was practically one in a million.
Suddenly, another thought struck her. Out of curiosity, she filtered the trading zone for the name Bai Ye.
The trading zone defaulted to sorting by transaction value, and with this impulsive search, an astonishingly high-value listing appeared before her.
‘Shared Trade—Real-world identity intel on Bai Ye from Boundless. Sharing conditions: minimum four-star rating, 100-point contribution. Current pooled points: 145,400.’
Ye Bai counted the digits carefully, watching as the number ticked up from 145,400 to 145,500 mid-count, confirming she hadn’t misread it.
Shared trades were typically used for intel exchanges—a sort of crowdfunded purchase. Contributors willing to pay the shared points would receive the same intel once the deal closed.
By the threshold, there were currently 1,454—no, 1,455—people in the Chaotic Star Sea who wanted to uncover Bai Ye’s real identity. And given that participants needed at least a four-star trade rating—with a five-star rating equivalent to an A-rank black hole—their strength was undoubtedly formidable.
Ye Bai: “…Damn.”
Bai Ye wasn’t just infamous in the Star Alliance; even in the Chaotic Star Sea, the name carried weight.
Honestly, after seeing the high-end tech in the exchange zone, Ye Bai was half-tempted to sell herself out…
