Chapter 144: 144 - Crisis and Opportunity
[Hello everyone, probably within a few hours some news will emerge about people who learned ESW powers in real life.
We are here to clarify that this news is possibly true, as upon reaching level 10 in ESW the Player will have the opportunity to learn a game skill in real life.
Of course, as Players already pay a monthly fee, we decided that learning these skills will be free, but please know that our resources are limited and we will not be able to make the skills available to everyone, so there will be a limited free quota every month where the first ones to request will get the skills, while the rest will have to wait for the next month, or pay to receive the skill immediately.
We don\'t like this kind of thing, but we are forced to do it this way, since the cost of making a person learn such a powerful skill as a super power is really very high, so we hope for everyone\'s understanding.
We look forward to you showing us the skills you learn in real life!

As soon as this post appeared on the Oasis forum, Players were extremely shocked.
Even the veteran players, who were already a little numb to the things that Mojang did since something surprising always came up, this time they were the ones who were most shocked.
Players who played ESW were currently looking at their Skill list and thinking about which Skill would be useful to have in real life, while Players who didn\'t play ESW were seriously considering starting to play to learn Skills in real life as well.
Of course, there were skeptical people who thought that Mojang was just making all this up to get attention, but these people were in the absolute minority, as the trust that Mojang has built with the community is so strong that even if this was something absurd, people people still believed that Mojang could do it.
Especially when a video was leaked on the internet.
In that video, Notch was flying alongside Iron Man and said that the skill he used was an Elder Scrolls: Warcraft skill.
If Notch had learned a skill from the game he made, why couldn\'t he teach the Players those skills too?
When this news came out, Ned and Peter looked at each other in shock.
Peter because he wondered how many new people would have super powers in the real world, and Ned because he realized that he could finally have a super power in real life just like Peter!
"Oh my god, this is so cool!" Ned said excitedly as he began to look at his abilities and imagine which one he could learn. "Peter, what skill do you think I can learn to help you?"
Hearing Ned\'s question, Peter quickly understood his friend\'s point of view and was surprised.
\'Really, is Ned really going to be able to help me deal with bandits?\' Peter was excited.
"As you are a Shaman, we can think of three possibilities, one is that you get an offensive skill like [Lightning Bolt] where you can shoot lightning at the bandits, but as you have no combat preparation, this can make you very vulnerable." Peter said.
"The other is that you can learn a Totem, where you can leave the totem in battle and use the totems to attack enemies automatically, so you\'re not in as much danger, but you\'ll also have to hide while the totems attack." Peter said the second option.
"The last option is for you to learn a healing skill, so while I\'m in battle you can help me by being the Chair Guy and when I return from battle you can still heal my injuries." Peter finally finished.
Hearing all these possibilities, Ned was excited about them all, but thinking about how dangerous this would be, he ruled out the first possibility immediately.
As for the other two possibilities... he still decided to wait a little longer to decide, since he was still at level 9 with only 10% Exp.
Another person who was extremely shocked when she saw this news was Yao, the Ancient One!
"Why couldn\'t I see this future?" Yao wondered in shock.
From now on, whenever she tried to see the future, she could see small remnants of ordinary people using powers in the real world, but when she observed the future the day before, she still couldn\'t do that.
"Why can\'t I see your future, Notch...?" She asked as she looked at the Players\' reaction to Notch\'s news.
To her surprise, people took this very well, the number of people who distrusted Mojang was so small it was almost insignificant.
But what really surprised her were the comments from Players who said they were students at Kamar Taj\'s School of Magic at Oasis.
\'Wait, Strange said that the number of Player Mages that would join them was approximately 200 thousand people... if all these people learn magic in real life...\' Thinking about these possibilities made her even more shocked.
\'The number of mages in Kamar Taj around the world is no more than 4,000, with another 200,000 people joining... My God, I have to get the Mages to start playing ESW so they don\'t get left behind!\' Yao thought anxiously as she summoned Mordo.
The anxiety that Yao felt to get all of her subordinates to start playing ESW was not something that only she began to feel, but it was also something that almost every leader around the world felt as well.
Especially when the agents below them showed images of the spells and Skills that the Players learned in the game, thinking about how this would be useful for their country made them call meetings as quickly as possible.
Even Hospital Directors and doctors felt the crisis coming, as with this news becoming true their jobs were at risk considering how strong the Priests and Paladins\' healing abilities were.
"Now that I\'ve explained the news to you, I trust everyone understands that we will need to learn these healing skills as quickly as possible if we want to continue working, right?" A director of a large hospital in NY said with a serious expression.
"I\'ve already asked my secretary to make a list of all the classes in the game that have healing abilities and select the most useful ones. I think the best way to stay where we are is to learn the skills closest to our real ability, since she also found news that the more you know about a Skill, the better you will use that skill. As long as we can learn all the healing skills, our hospital will still remain one of the best hospitals in NY, and if we can get more Skills than other hospitals, we could even move up to the biggest hospital in the city, the state, or even the country!"
Hearing the director\'s words, the doctors at the meeting had bright eyes thinking about the possibilities they would have of growing as professionals with these skills.
When the meeting was over, the older doctors quickly called the younger doctors to explain to them more about the game and help with some things they didn\'t understand, as even he was fascinated and scared by these skills.
What they realized was that these abilities coming into the real world could not only be a great blessing for them, but it could also become a nightmare that would knock them off their pedestal if they didn\'t adapt quickly.
