Otaku Witch-Chapter 424 - 378. Sophia’s Game_2
As for the blueprints and materials for warships, these can be acquired from the rewards given at the end of game battles.
Since this game is only open to witches, the game company really plays it big; the warship blueprints provided are genuine manufacturing blueprints from real warships, with just some high-end and confidential components withheld.
Therefore, theoretically speaking, if you’re skilled enough to build ships in the game, then in reality, if you had the materials, you could actually construct them.
Of course, in the game, there’s the assistance of various systems, and the malfunction rate isn’t so high; it ultimately simulates perfect conditions. In reality, however, the manufacturing difficulty is much higher and accidents of various kinds can happen.
But even so, the realism of shipbuilding in this game is already high enough that, theoretically, if you can produce a Legendary Battleship in the game, then in reality, you’re at least a shipbuilding expert.
Therefore, this game is also jokingly referred to as "Shipbuilding Simulator" and "Designated Learning Material for Shipbuilders" among other names.
In short, if you want to assemble such a luxurious Dream Fleet in this game, you’re either a big spender or a true Shipbuilding Master.
Sophia thought "All Ship-Girls Are My Wives" must be a big spender since her skills were just average and she ended up losing to Sophia’s ordinary fleet.
Of course, during that battle, the enemy’s firepower was overwhelmingly strong, so she did have to rack her brains to respond. Although victorious in the end, it was a Pyrrhic victory with over ninety percent losses on her side.
After that battle, Sophia’s military strategy advanced to a completely new realm, which is why it was so memorable.
It’s a pity that the wealthy player couldn’t handle the stress; when the Pure White Witch was ready to "Review the Old and Know the New" and play another match, the other player’s account was permanently greyed out and never active again.
Probably having quit the game for good, Sophia felt rather guilty at the time for causing the game company to lose such a major customer.

The second battle that left a lasting impression on her wasn’t with a rich spender. During Sophia’s short gaming career, she only encountered such a Dream Team once. The second memorable battle was so because the opponent, like her, used only a standard fleet.
That battle was a true test of command strategy for both sides. Sophia still won, but the victory was hard-won, with eighty percent of her fleet lost before the enemy was completely annihilated.
Overall, though, it was a hearty and satisfying fight, and battling an equally matched opponent was quite fascinating.
After the battle, Sophia, who rarely did so, added the other as a Magic Network friend and they would occasionally exchange thoughts on military strategy and the like.
And it’s this netizen who is now looking for her.
"Believer of Revelation," that’s the other person’s Magic Network ID.
Sophia, after all, played games to learn, and once she had digested the knowledge, she quit playing. But before she quit, this netizen had once invited her to join in conquering a new game, which she declined, citing her busy studies.
However, the netizen never gave up, and after repeated unsuccessful attempts at persuasion, she suggested they could create joint accounts, with the operation handed over to her, while the only thing required of Sophia would be to be the behind-the-scenes Think Tank and strategist.
The young Sophia didn’t think much of it and agreed. Afterward, the other person would often bring her strange battle situations to help strategize, and she didn’t refuse these requests.
However, as the game went on, the Pure White Witch caught on; after all, many of those battle situations were so true to life, they didn’t feel like a game. Not to mention, in recent years, a new Battle Group called Divine Revelation had rapidly risen.
The Revelation Battle Group, Believer of Revelation—the all-too-obvious connection between these names made Sophia frown. And when she checked the history of accomplishments of this Revelation Battle Group online, she exclaimed in realization that all their battles were based on the templates they had discussed.
At that moment, the Pure White Witch was completely dumbfounded. She wanted to confront her netizen; was this what they called the "new game"? Were they turning the front lines into a game?
But she eventually held back and didn’t ask any questions, and since she didn’t ask, the other person also kept silent. So, they continued as before, with the netizen producing various battle scenarios and her helping with the planning.
Over time, their conversations went beyond military strategy to include management of the Battle Group, faith, logistics support, and more.
Yeah, the other was not even bothering to hide it anymore; she knew that Sophia had discovered the truth of the game.
But Sophia also pretended not to see the true nature of the game; after all, inadvertently being part of the rise of a top 500 Battle Group was a bit too far-fetched.
Of course, with her personality, she wouldn’t mind exploiting the situation if possible... but the God King’s Church and ideas like "I am the Divine King" were just too embarrassing—reminiscent of her chuunibyou phase. It was embarrassing to her now, yet she didn’t understand why so many people took it seriously. Your next read is at novelbuddy
In any case, she was reluctant to carry that burden; if one day the God King took offense, she’d be baffled.
Moreover, such a large Battle Group was no longer just a casual conversation about gaming accounts; the entangled interests were too complex, and the other person was just a netizen—their reliability was...
