The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 553: Animal Kingdom Speed ​​Race! (asking for monthly pass)

Isn’t it to serve the majority of players that I make the guide on clothing explosion?

I didn't even ask you for advertising fees, why do you still despise me? ?
The heroic sniper felt like he was hit by a club just after he landed, and he even forgot to say hello.

Fortunately, there was an acquaintance like Qihuahua, "Aki, you're here?"

Xiao Meng's ears shivered, and she realized that someone had heard her saying bad things. She turned around slowly with a guilty conscience.

However, after the brave sniper saw the surrounding environment clearly, he forgot to defend himself on the spot.

"Where is this place?"

He asked in surprise as he looked at the chubby little kids on the green grassland.

All of them were standing on an endless grassland.

The grass is clean and tidy, and the green fields are full of vitality.

Around them, there are all kinds of animals:

Cats, dogs, rabbits, foxes, snow leopards, tigers, capybaras, alpacas, sika deer, giraffes, hippos, sea lions, penguins, rhinos, elephants...

There are so many species that the brave sniper is dazzled.

What’s even more amazing is that not only do these animals live in harmony, they also play together in close proximity to each other, and each one is fatter than the other!

Especially the snow leopards and tigers, they are almost as fat as balls!
Xiao Meng puffed out her chest proudly: "Of course it's the furry, slippery and soft kingdom!"

"You can touch it and see if it's furry, slippery and soft!"

Upon hearing this, the brave sniper immediately looked at Xiao Meng's furry ears.

Noticing his look, Xiao Meng immediately hugged her ears and head: "Xiao Meng, no!"

The brave sniper was greatly disappointed.

I could only turn around and pat the chubby snow leopard.

The snow leopard let out a lazily "wool" and was too lazy to move at all.

Looking around, there were 6 other people at the scene besides Xiao Meng and myself.

There were people I knew, Qihuahua and Huazhou, Tang Ya, the former comic artist I had seen in the preview video, Xiang Yongxiang, the main planner of the vehicle battle gameplay of "Lord of War", and some people I didn't know at all.

The Heroic Sniper previously thought that Xiao Meng selected players from the [Honorary Players], but now he knows that this is not the case.

"So..." He looked at Xiao Meng and the others, "What game is Xiao Meng going to make?"

Xiao Meng said proudly: "I haven't thought about the game yet!"

"But Xiao Meng is planning to hold a large-scale competition and invite the winner to play games with Xiao Meng!"

"I've already thought of a name for the race, it's called the Animal Kingdom Marathon!"

The Heroic Sniper blinked, "Animal Marathon?"

In the Sprawling City project, Chen Jin, who was responsible for planning traffic and lanes, said, "Yes, Xiao Mengxiang asked the participating players to come here first..."

She pointed to the animals around her.

"After choosing your animal companion, we'll go to the Sprawling City together to participate in a marathon."

The first reaction of the heroic sniper was not the size difference between the animals, but:

"Can these animals run when they are so fat?"

Qihuahua said understandingly: "Just change the value!"

Xiang Yongxiang disagrees with her statement:

“Simply changing the values ​​won’t work. DreamCraft has always focused on balancing [values] and [intuition] when developing games, and we can’t make the values ​​go against intuition.”

"So coordinating the differences in size, fitness and speed between different animals is a big problem."

"To be fair, it's best to limit it to animals of the same size."

He led the design of the vehicle battles in Lord of War, and paid the most attention to the issue of balance.

Xiao Meng was a little troubled: "But Xiao Meng thinks it would be a bit boring if everyone looks for the same animal friend."

"We can enrich the part of [finding animal companions] and make fast-running animals harder to catch... er, I mean, harder to make friends with." The Heroic Sniper started thinking, "How about adding some super rare species like centaurs and nine-tailed foxes?"

"Or you can turn the marathon into a triathlon! From just running, to a comprehensive competition like running, swimming, and cycling."

Hua Zhou's mind raced and he came up with a good idea.

Qihuahua looked at the little raccoon who was pulling at her trouser legs and said hesitantly:
“Let a raccoon ride a bike?”

"Of course it's people riding it! Haha, what are you thinking about?" Hua Zhou couldn't help but complain.

Tang Ya thought this idea was interesting: "In this way, we don't have to limit ourselves to running, swimming and cycling. We can also add some other sports - such as climbing stairs, or crossing special terrains such as snow, forests and swamps."

"There are ski resorts in the Sprawling City, but where can I find forests and swamps?"

"Open your mind. If we have an obstacle course, there will be obstacles everywhere in the sprawling world. We can even allow players to interfere with each other."

...A group of people surrounded Xiao Meng and exchanged ideas quickly.

As Xiao Meng listened, she fashioned a small model of a sprawling city in her hands and tried to plan a route based on what everyone said.

After all four routes were planned, and traps, mechanisms and props were added at the suggestion of the bad-hearted man, the Heroic Sniper, Xiao Meng clapped her hands in satisfaction and said:

"Hey, it's done!"

The seven people around looked at the holographic model in front of Xiao Meng and nodded.

"The next step is to make this model, but we don't know how to do that." Qihuahua said regretfully.

Xiang Yongxiang volunteered: "Lord of War is not busy recently, so you can come and help with this. They will definitely be happy to help."

"No need." Xiao Meng shook her head happily, "Xiao Meng is almost done!"

"???"

Everyone's eyes widened at the same time.

Especially Xiang Yongxiang and Chen Jin, who understood development and had actually participated in development, were completely dumbfounded.

Even if there is a ready-made Sprawling City site available, this speed is really too exaggerated!
"Are those mechanisms and props almost ready?"

Xiao Meng was silent for five seconds.

“Now it’s done!”

“You can invite everyone to play!”

The brave sniper and Qihuahua were overjoyed.

Xiang Yongxiang and Chen Jin began to doubt their lives.

"Should we test it first before inviting players to play?" Tang Ya asked.

"Yes! We need to test it first!" Xiao Meng was reminded and quickly stopped posting the announcement, "Then everyone, choose an animal companion first."

The raccoon was still holding Qihuahua's legs.

But in order to seriously test the track, she reluctantly pushed the raccoon away and went to find a larger and more agile animal.

Others also took action and chose their favorite animal companions.

……

……

This ultra-small track test ended after 4 hours.

After making some modifications, Xiao Meng couldn't wait to invite everyone to play.

Seeing Xiao Meng was so excited, Tang Ya asked, "Should we give some bonuses to the champion, runner-up and third place to attract more people to participate?"

"Yes! Xiao Meng has pocket money!" Xiao Meng waved her hand generously.

Qihuahua felt that spending the kid's pocket money was a bit excessive, so she took the initiative to say, "Xiaomeng, you should keep your pocket money for yourself. How about I help you get some sponsorship and bonuses? Just put up a few billboards by the track, and I promise to only pay money and no nonsense."

Nowadays, there are so many billboards on the streets of sprawling cities that no one really takes them seriously, whether they are a few more or a few less.

But Qihuahua thinks that there must be many brands willing to pay this money.

However, Xiao Meng shook her head and refused: "No, no, Xiao Meng still has 600 million in pocket money, which should be enough, right?"

The words [600 million pocket money] made the scene eerily quiet.

The seven people were speechless for a moment.

For Xiang Yongxiang, Chen Jin, Tang Ya and other middle and senior management employees who are building the dream, this is certainly not an exaggerated number.

But it is difficult for them to combine this number with the word "pocket money".

Seeing that they were silent, Xiao Meng thought they felt it was not enough: "If it's not enough, Xiao Meng can go and ask for more."

"Enough, enough!" Everyone hurried to stop it.

After that, other rewards besides the prize money were finalized, and the event was decided somewhat hastily.

The small team was then disbanded.

Xiao Meng instantly generated a competition plan and showed it to Xu Meng.

At this time, Xu Meng and Wu Shuang were communicating with experts in the domestic aerospace and satellite fields.

After seeing Xiao Meng appear, he just took a quick look and confirmed that the competition would be held in Mansheng City, then he approved his plan with a wave of his hand.

Afterwards, he was not only the first to sign up for the competition, but also reimbursed Xiao Meng for her competition prize money - he even doubled it so that she could have fun.

——Anyway, a sprawling city in free mode is not a peaceful place.

Even if something goes wrong during the game, the players will just treat it as fun and no major problems will arise.

Xiao Meng then excitedly registered a social account and posted an announcement about the event:

[Registration for the 1st Animal Kingdom Speed ​​Race is now open!]
