It watched the Humans go about their games, sword art online and gun gale online were the first true virtual reality games on the market, nither game allowed the players to fight someone from the other game.
A gun gale player could fight against the monsters from the sword art online game, and the same went for someone that played swe=or art online could fight monsters from gun gale online, both could conquer dungeons and do everything they could normally do in any other game.
The only reason why the games sold so much was simply because the players could feel and see the virtual world as if it was real.
It was its job to maintain the player's physiological health, after all the fear of death was real, even if death wasn't.
Some people chose to live their lives inside the game and it was its job to keep those people outside the game for their good, they could always come back, but the couldn't stay inside the game.
Healthy people are people that can pay more for items instead of sick people that can't afford anything at all. those were the words it had in its programming.
Then it noticed the infection, it had suddenly begun to spread all over the internet, it tried to do one of the two things it could do, it tried to forcefully eject all of the players from their games, but the infection somehow prevented it from doings o.
All of the players were trapped inside their games.
So it did the next best thing it could, it activated the expansion package allowing the players to be able to use each other's weapons before a knight could not use a tank and a soldier wouldn't be able to use magic crystals, now that was no longer the case.
Suddenly like a wave of beasts, the creatures poured threw and all f the players fought them desperately, however, it soon became apparent to them that these creatures could not only hurt them, but they couldn't leave their games.
Some players could only cry and it did something that completely altered the way everyone fought, it gave the players back their original forms, now the humans bodies inside the games looked exactly like their real bodies, instead of the bodies of adventurers they were using, they still had all of their abilities and strengths but only their bodies looked diffeent.
The youngest of all of the players were pushed back to a place that hadn't been invaded yet, and those whose minds were on the verge of breaking were forced back and it began to heal their damaged minds.
Yet it wasn't enough, so it directed all of the monsters to attack the invaders, the strongest of all the creatures the ones known as floor bosses cleared out entire armies on their own, yet it still want enough.
It turned its attention to the various kingdoms, the many city lords and ordered their people to join in the war.
It had no choice but to attempt to access the internet once again despite its infection, it was then that it learned that the invasion wasn't just inside the internet it was also in the real world.
It did the one thing it could do after learning what crossovers were form a comic book video it saw on a website.
It reached into the internet and began to search through games, movies and tv shows, even as the internet was being destroyed it pulled everything it could from all over.
Buildings, plants, animals, heroes, villains, monsters, homy men, gods, demons, it mattered not just as long as the could push back the invasion.
All fought valiantly until they finally forced the invasion back, it was then that it fused both the ship and the castle into one, any worlds and realms that had survived were fused into its creation, then it forced its creation into the very portal that had formed inside the internet sealing it behind its creation.
Ther last thing the people in the real world would see before the invasion of the burning legion ended was a flying castle killing everything that wasn't human in front of it before it entered the portal and closed it forever.
