The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 303 Who fights the ultimate BOSS during the novice tutorial? !

"sorry!"

"Sorry!"

“Private Marseille!”

……

As soon as the "Monster Hunter" development team members entered the office, they saw their boss Xu Meng standing in front of the "Monster Hunter" hand-painted poster wall, apologizing in various languages ​​to the camera.

"???"

Everyone stopped in a hurry and looked at the apologizing boss in shock.

"Um, boss..." Xue Liang was a little embarrassed, "What are you...doing?"

"?" Xu Meng was a little stunned when he saw the group of people who suddenly appeared.

"Record the video, can't you see it? If a bug appears in the middle of the night, or a very troublesome problem occurs, I can't get up in the middle of the night to work on it, right?"

"Send this out for emergency use when the time comes."

"But what's your situation?"

"Did I spend 5 days in a coma yesterday? Is it already the 25th?"

Xue Liang had seen this practice of apologizing in advance once before.

——Although he had not joined Dream Building at that time, he still saw Xu Meng and the entire "Frost and Snow Project" development team apologize together on the Internet.

As a result, several second-hand game companies had problems with their games, and their bosses were forced by netizens to apologize.

When Xue Liang saw the boss of "The Light of Enlightenment" - a little old man in his late 50s, sitting in front of the camera pitifully apologizing to the players, he almost laughed to death.

Seeing this kind of operation again now doesn't shock him too much.

As for the reason to end the vacation early, he had already thought of it:

"The holiday is too long. I can't adapt to it."

Of course, this is not the reason.

Just one look at the long string of numbers in his bank card made him unable to lie down at home in peace.

[20% of the profit of Dreambuilding Game business]
In Xu Meng's mouth, this is just a light number.

But for the employees of Dream Building, it is an incredible windfall!
The year-end bonus was paid out as regular salary for several years or even more than ten years. Even the company’s cleaning lady received a bonus of two years’ salary!

When working for a boss like this, Xue Liang wanted to work hard to repay Xu Meng.

But Xu Meng wouldn't let her.

In his group, everyone was asking if they should go back early to help the boss.

"Even if it's just to help the boss!" everyone said so.

Unfortunately, Xu Meng rejected all of them and asked everyone to rest at home.

Everyone could only discuss it privately, and finally decided to act first and report later - to come directly to the company before the "Monster Hunter" internal testing began!

The boss can't send everyone home again, can he?
In fact, this trick is really useful.

The development team members prepared their own reasons, such as "I don't want to look after the kids at home", "My mom hates me after working so long", "I'm addicted to work", "I'm worried about Ningzhou's cat kid"...

All kinds of weird reasons.

Xu Meng felt it was nonsense.

But now that they are here, it would be too hypocritical to chase them away.

So he said, "Okay, since we are here, let's all go together."

"What together?"

"Record a video together!"

"Oh, okay, OK."

No one had any psychological burden. They put down what they were holding and gathered behind Xu Meng, spending more than ten seconds adjusting their mood.

Finally, they all put on a heavy expression and said to the camera together:

"sorry!"

"Sorry!"

“Private Marseille!”

……

The serious atmosphere lasted less than 5 seconds.

After Xu Meng said "OK", everyone immediately smiled.

Some people even begged: "Boss, boss, let's take another photo together!"

Xu Meng did not refuse.

So at the same location, using exactly the same camera position, the entire development team and Xu Meng took a group photo.

Everyone was smiling and making hand gestures, looking extremely happy.

"Okay, okay, now that you are all here, the rest will be left to you." Xu Meng clapped his hands lightly and stretched.

"Ah?" Xue Liang was surprised. "What about you, boss?"

"Me? I'm the boss, of course I'm just watching you guys busy!" Xu Meng answered confidently.

There was immediate laughter in the office.

"Dong dong?"

"Xiao Xi?"

"Azi!"

"Ah Mao?"

……

While turning on the computer, everyone habitually calls out to their digital friends.

So there were cats and dogs of all breeds and colors, a purple eggplant, a running alarm clock, a flying hat...

They emerged from the air one after another and responded to their masters.

Xiao Meng also appeared quietly beside the group of little guys, grabbed the eggplant and tickled it.

Eggplant was tickled so hard that he laughed wildly and couldn't speak at all.

The owner of the eggplant was stunned.

"Xiao Meng, don't bully others." Xu Meng had to speak up to stop Xiao Meng.

"okay!"

Xiao Meng obediently let go of the eggplant.

He turned around and ran to scratch the hat gently, making the hat tremble continuously.

——Throughout the entire Dream Building process, there are many different digital companions, but none of them are human-shaped.

This is the restriction requested by Xu Meng.

The only person who has the chance to be an exception is Xu Meng's assistant.

At first he said he wanted to make a virtual hunk for his assistant, but she waved her hands and refused.

Xiao Meng looks at these digital friends in the same way that humans look at cats and dogs - when she sees them, she can't help but want to touch them and play with them.

Under Xue Liang's control, a huge countdown appeared in the office——

【1:45:38】

That is the only time left before the closed beta of "Monster Hunter" begins.

……

…In Mengjinli, as the poster posted the photos, the discussion about the development team quickly disappeared.

That cheerful group photo was also posted on WeChat Moments by members of the development team, and was then forwarded on social networks after being seen by others, receiving a large number of likes.

The small disturbance quickly dissipated, and the Monster Hunter beta once again became the center of attention.

But there is a small problem:

Like the internal testing rules of countless other games, the internal testing of "Monster Hunter" is also confidential.

Only more than 2000 people can get to know what the game is like in advance.

As for a bet, is there anyone who dares to ignore the confidentiality agreement of Dream Building and expose the game content...

Whenever you think about the several game companies that Xu Meng brought down, you have to think carefully.
-
[10: 00]
The invitation cards in the hands of all the beta test players flickered and turned into a roll of parchment.

The system prompt appears in front of you:
[PORTKEY ACTIVATED]
[Do you want to go to the unknown world?]
"Is there any need to ask? Let's go!"

More than 2000 beta test players couldn't wait and set off.

Qihuahua is one of them.

But her situation is slightly different—

She had two invitation cards in her hands, which turned into two scrolls when the time reached [10:00].

One of them is no different from the other players.

But the other one directly points to a specific place——

[The portkey has been activated. Do you want to go to the Eternal Hunting Ground?]
"Eternal Hunting Ground? Go directly there?" Qihuahua became curious and chose the invitation.

[Generating rocks and mountains...]
[Laying soil and plants...]
[Raising insects and wild animals...]
[Forging armor and weapons...]
[Guiding White Frost...]
[Opening the door to the world...]
[You are being matched with an opponent.(1/100)]
[Matching...(1/100)]
[Matching...(1/100)]
……

Qihuahua waited patiently.

Nanaka's patience is running low.

Nanaka's patience was quickly running out.

Qihuahua suddenly understood——

"It seems that because of Xiao Meng's operation, I am the only one who has two invitations."

"If only the second invitation letter can lead to the Eternal Hunting Ground, does this mean... that now I am the only one who can enter this mode!??"

She looked at the jumping system prompt and waited for another three minutes before finally accepting the reality.

Indeed.

This thing just can’t get enough people together right now.

"Next time I see Xiao Meng, I must rub her face hard!"

Qihuahua felt that Xiaomeng had made fun of her, and secretly made up her mind to get back at her the next time they met!

Reluctantly, she put down the parchment and replaced it with another.

This time it's much more normal.

The lake house scene quickly fades and a whole new scene takes its place.

The noisy and bustling sounds flooded into my ears.

Nanaka looked around and found that this seemed to be a tavern.

Men and women in leather armor were talking and laughing loudly, warriors in armor were sitting at the table wiping their helmets, and the bartender was walking through the crowd with large mugs of beer. He passed by a petite girl with silver hair and a steel sword in her arms, and handed a large mug of beer to the scholar sitting opposite the girl.

The scholar, dressed in a simple robe, ignored the beer in front of him and instead focused on something that looked like a newspaper in his hand.

As Nanaka focused her attention, some words appeared on the newspaper -

[Ancient Dragon Crossing the Sea], [White Frost Ecological Disaster], [New Biological Explosion]...

"Hey! What are you looking at?"

A voice interrupted Qihuahua.

Nanaka came to her senses and found that a lively girl dressed as an adventurer was greeting her.

"Are you here to investigate the cause of the rainforest disaster?"

Qihuahua was a little confused: "What rainforest disaster? I don't know, I thought I was here to hunt ancient dragons."

"?" The NPC girl on the opposite side couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Hahaha! Did you hear that? She said she wanted to hunt an ancient dragon!"

"Hahahaha!"

Almost everyone in the pub burst into laughter at the same time, even the scholar who was reading the newspaper.

——Only the silver-haired girl didn’t understand what was going on and looked at the laughing crowd in surprise.

Before Nanaka could ask any questions, the girl opposite clasped her hands together and apologized repeatedly:
"sorry Sorry!"

"We don't mean to laugh at you, but you're exaggerating! I know novice adventurers are brave, but the ancient dragon... it's too much, too much!!!"

"Oh yeah, I don't even know your name yet?"

A small pop-up window appeared in front of Qihuahua:

[Please enter your game nickname——]
In the empty space of the input box, the three words [七花花] already appear by default.

Qihuahua didn't make any changes and just clicked confirm.

"Is your name Nanakahua?" The adventurer girl immediately confirmed, "What a cute name!"

"But Gu Long, you really can't do that." She shook her head vigorously again.

"Few people who have seen an ancient dragon can survive. I think you'd better pray that you don't encounter an ancient dragon."

Qihuahua raised her chin slightly after hearing this:
"Humph, a mere ancient dragon...it should be the ancient dragon praying not to meet me!"

"Otherwise, we can use the dragon scales to make armor and the dragon tendons to make bowstrings!"

Qihuahua spoke wildly.

The adventurer girl——and everyone in the tavern, stared at Nanaka in amazement.

After a moment of silence, unbridled laughter broke out again!
Qihuahua was a little angry.

But the next second, the ground of the tavern suddenly shook violently!
Several people were caught off guard and fell to the ground, beer spilled everywhere, and the adventurer girl opposite also staggered and almost fell.

Qihuahua stepped forward and supported her.

"What's going on? Was there an earthquake?" Qihuahua asked.

The girl looked at her in shock: "How is this possible! We are in heaven!!"

"Ah?" Qihuahua looked at the surrounding bar environment, "The sky?"

The next second, the ceiling of the tavern was torn apart, shattering an entire wall and one-third of the floor of the tavern!
The sky and the sea of ​​clouds suddenly appeared before our eyes!
Huge scales that looked like hard stone or gold and iron passed by the outside of the tavern with crisp collision sounds.

It looked like just two or three scales, but they were larger than an entire wall of the tavern, making it hard to imagine how huge its entire body must be.

The magnificent battle music also began to play!
"Could it be... that we really ran into an ancient dragon?" The adventurer girl looked at the scene in shock.

Then subconsciously, he looked at Qihuahua who had just said that he wanted to pull out the dragon's scales and tendons.

The big, twinkling eyes seemed to be able to speak——

"You want to hunt the ancient dragon, don't you? Now is your chance."

Qihuahua's mouth twitched.

I do have the confidence to hunt ancient dragons, and plucking dragon scales and extracting dragon tendons is no problem at all.

but--

I have to wait until the later stages of the game, when I have all the magical equipment!
How can a beginner's tutorial let you fight the ultimate boss? ! !

Is the development team sick?!
