You said you were going to make games, how did you become the richest man without doing anything?

Chapter 304: Cyber ​​Wife is Getting More and More Abnormal (2-in-1 Order Request)

"It should... not be?" Tao Xueran hesitated.

"Are you sure? Even if your clothes accidentally get spores or pollen from these plants on them, that's not allowed."

"I guess it didn't get on me."

Wang Fanqie breathed a sigh of relief.

If it constitutes a species invasion, it will be a disaster. Just taking the little girl vine as an example, it will definitely cause a mess.

Tao Xueran muttered, "The metaverse you created has a much greater impact on humanity than a single vine."

Wang Fanqie stared at the girl's wet body and encouraged her to take a shower first.

"What is this?" Tao Xueran was curious when she saw the bottles and jars in the bathroom.

"You future people don't even know how to use shower gel?"

"In the future, many people in cities will have never enjoyed a bathtub or shower gel, and the cleansing function of Cocoon will be enough for them.

In that era, the middle and lower classes had already given up on the enjoyment of the real world, investing all their income into upgrading their cocoon equipment and spending on virtual items in the Metaverse.

The barrage of music:

"This sounds like some people who would rather eat instant noodles in real life than spend money on a paper-figure wife in the game."

"Oh my god, isn't this me?"

After fiddling with it for a while, the girl asked again:
"How do I wash my hair?"

"Huh? Wet your hair and then...use shampoo."

Wang Fanqie was stunned. Is my cyber wife really a moron?

The girl is a little cramped:
"So in the 21st century, don't you humans wash your hair upside down?"

"Why do you think humans wash their hair upside down? It makes sense."

Tao Xueran said confidently:

"I'm not kidding. Our historians accidentally unearthed a machine for washing hair while researching ancient sites in northern China.

It was this machine that led historians to make this bold guess.”

After that, she began to gesture what the machine looked like: a large iron bed with a device like a washing machine.

"Oh, I see."

Wang Fanqie used the computer in the game to open Station D and searched for the up-loader Geng Shougong’s video of an inverted shampooing machine.

"Yes, that's the machine! It's exactly like the one in the history textbooks, and you said you don't wash your hair like that."

Barrage: "Hahahahahahaha, my stomach hurts from laughing."

Wang Fanqie rubbed his eyebrows:

"Let me put it this way, this kind of machine is not really for washing hair, it's just for entertainment.

Logically speaking, entertainment should have been more developed in your era. Isn't there any full-time comedy bloggers?"

Tao Xueran shook her head:
"In our time, apart from commuting to work, everyone's only form of entertainment is lying in a cultivation capsule made in Taoyuan Township."

It's Taoyuan Township again...

King Tomato:
“In short, many archaeological discoveries from your time don’t necessarily reflect real life.

Let me give you an example. There are some bloggers on YouTube who like to dig holes with their bare hands in uninhabited areas.

You know what digging holes is? The outrageous thing is that they built something like a crypt, not just a small cave, but something like a mausoleum, with a living room, a bedroom, and even a swimming pool and a garden. If these things were excavated in the future, it would probably mislead your archaeological direction.

Tao Xueran nodded, not quite understanding.

"But what is their purpose in doing this?"

"..."

Wang Fanqie really didn't know how to explain the concept of "fun person" to her.

……

After a few days of gaming, the girl slowly settled down at Wang Fanqie's house.

However, she was still full of fear and wariness towards Wang Fanqie.

She secretly used her diary to observe Wang Fanqie's life, and continued to look for opportunities to eliminate Wang Fanqie several times, but in the end all of them turned into giving benefits to Wang Fanqie.

Wang Fanqie follows the game prompts and continuously performs actions such as [cooking], [housework], and [gifts] to increase the girl's favorability.

After a week, I finally managed to reduce the murderous intent by 10 points and increase the favorability by 5 points.

However, during the game, Wang Fanqie found that if he wanted to conquer this girl and reduce her murderous intent, there would be a very big problem!
This girl has absolutely no idea about many things in this era, such as food, clothing, housing, transportation, etc., and she needs to be taught from scratch.

Comments: "It turns out to be a development-based game. Interesting."

On the weekend of the game time, Wang Fanqie bought a hamburger and cola combo from the game.

Tao Xueran took a bite of the burger and her beautiful eyes widened.

"It turns out that people in the 21st century are so lucky to be able to eat such delicious food."

"How should I put it? On the contrary, the two things I ate tonight are considered high-calorie junk food in the eyes of many people.

Don’t you people in the 24th century eat similar fast food? Logically speaking, after 300 years of development, the food industry should be more developed.

For example, the jewel of the modern fast food industry, the hamburger, is the result of technology and hard work.”

"We have nutrient solution."

Tao Xueran gestured to him.

It is a compressed food similar to fruit puree. It has no texture or taste, but it can provide the necessary nutrition for a day.

"People living in the cocoon don't even take nutrient solution. All necessary vitamins are injected intravenously."

Wang Fanqie sighed:
"Hearing what you said, wouldn't such a life be too boring? Being locked up in a cramped incubator like a zombie, unable to eat, unable to experience various sports, unable to hold the hand of the one you love, and unable to go on a spontaneous trip."

"No, quite the opposite."

Tao Xueran shook her head:
"Let me ask you, what is the reason why we feel that food tastes good when we eat it?"

"Hmm... Let me think about it. It's probably because the taste buds are stimulated by food, transmitting electrical signals to the nerve centers in the brain, inducing the brain to secrete dopamine, producing a sense of pleasure."

“Yes, so you should understand the principle of Taoyuan Township’s brain-computer interface.

It directly cuts off the transmission of nerve signals from the back of the neck.

In other words, the game pod replaces the original body and transmits all sensations to the brain, and these sensations are no different from the body's signals."

Wang Fanqie roughly understood it and explained in the live broadcast room:

"If that's the case, then indeed, people living in the metaverse will feel like they are living in a real world."

Barrage:

"I never thought Taoyuan Township would do such a terrible thing in the future."

"Wake up, upstairs! This is just a game setting. You're getting too caught up in the action."

Tao Xueran continued to recall:
"The Taoyuan Metaverse has more appeal than just this. If it were simply a simulation of another real world, why would we go to all that trouble?
Its magic lies in the fact that all human feelings are higher than reality! After all, bioelectric signals are controlled by programs and can be freely modified.

She finished her fries and licked her lips with satisfaction:

"For example, you can modify your appearance, age, and even gender. You can do many things that are impossible in the real world, such as dating and getting married. All the experiences are indistinguishable from reality, or even more exciting. After all, you can customize the abilities of your virtual character at will and recharge them with a single click."

"Detailed explanation of one-button charging..."

Wang Fanqie wanted to ask more, but finally held back.

"You can even provide a picture to customize your own wife, and she will live with you for hundreds of years, just like a living person...

This feature is not limited to humans. For example, the most popular characters in the Taoyuan Metaverse are fox girls and cat girls. The NPC faction that operates the Metaverse, "Qingqiu Kingdom," is a bunch of charming fox girls.

"If what you said is true, no wonder humanity is doomed."

Wang Fanqie thought to himself that compared to the world of Taoyuan Township, the real world was indeed too boring.

He sighed, "I still don't want to believe that Taoyuan Township Company could actually make such a horrible thing..."

The reason why he used the word "terrible" is because he understood that once humans really achieved immortality in the form of digital life in Utopia, they would fall into the hell of endless reincarnation.

Because there are no new unknown mysteries here, even the smartest scientists will not achieve any scientific research.

Immortal humans can only indulge in the civilization accumulated over thousands of years, constantly repeating a monotonous life of enjoyment, and the technology tree of civilization is equivalent to being directly locked.

Tao Xueran agreed and continued to attack:

"More importantly, you are the producer of this terrible world."

"I won't admit it. I think you need to get treatment for your Chuunibyou."

In fact, Wang Fanqie has also been secretly observing Tao Xueran in the past week.

According to the information on the special forces nameplate she carried with her, she was three years younger than him, 163cm tall, and her estimated measurements were 88-59-89.

He sighed in the live broadcast room:

“Although this girl claims to be a special forces soldier, I can sense that she is a girl who lacks security inside.

When I passed by her bedroom door before, I saw her still sleeping soundly with tears in the corners of her eyes.

Although his attitude and behavior usually give people a sense of distance like an iceberg, he also occasionally shows shyness.

For example, when it’s time for dinner, no matter how unhappy I was before, I will burst into laughter when I smell the fragrance of the food.

In short, apart from being a bit stupid and dull, there aren't any other shortcomings in his personality. "The live broadcast room started to make noises:
"It's over, it's over. Teacher Tomato is completely moved."

"Wake up, this is just a cyber dummy."

"But from another perspective, being able to make players feel real emotions shows that this game is really well made."

King Tomato:
"The reason why I felt she lacked a sense of security was because I noticed the special forces belt Tao Xueran was wearing.

Besides the laser sword and the strange egg-shaped gun, I saw other strange objects, but she didn't want to mention them in front of me.

Anyway, I guess it's cosplay props I bought online, right? "

……

Wang Fanqie didn't want to delve into it too much.

However, that night, he was sitting in the living room, glancing out the window out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly saw something incredible!
If I have to describe it, its appearance is a bit like a "tentacle", similar to the metal mechanical prosthesis used by Doctor Octopus in the science fiction movie "Spider-Man".

When I caught a glimpse of it, the slender spherical joint at the end was twisting flexibly.

Wang Fanqie's face turned pale. He wiped his eyes and looked out the window again, but found nothing.

He was unwilling to give up, so he opened the window and looked around, but found nothing.

"Oh my god, did you just see that? Tentacles!"

When Wang Fanqie turned around, he found that Tao Xueran was holding his hands in the air, as if he was remotely controlling something.

Unexpectedly, Wang Fanqie turned around so quickly. Tao Xueran smiled awkwardly and pretended to wipe her mouth with a tissue.

"I don't see anything. Are you too tired from work and your eyes are blurry?"

"Ah? Really?..."

……

At first, Wang Fanqie thought it was his own illusion.

Until two days of game time passed,

He and the girl were happily having a meal to improve their relationship when they suddenly heard a crunching sound coming from outside the window.

"What the hell is going on..."

Looking carefully, I found mechanical tentacles dancing demonically outside the window.

He immediately shouted, "Miss Tao, look out the window!"

Tao Xueran's expression visibly tightened.

Soon, the tentacles disappeared into the thick night.

"Are you too nervous? It's so late, it's probably just branches blowing in the wind."

Wang Fanqie also fell into self-doubt. It would be fine if it happened once, but why did he get it wrong every time?
Comment: "Host, please exercise moderation and don't reward yourself so frequently."

……

On Thursday, when Wang Fanqie was drying his girlfriend's clothes on the balcony, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the mechanical tentacle poking out of the window and arrogantly twisting into an S shape in front of him.

Now, with the help of sunlight, I could finally see the thing clearly.

This is a mechanical device with a very sci-fi appearance, but from Wang Fanqie's perspective, he can only see the tentacle part and cannot get a glimpse of the whole picture.

The surface of the tentacle has a metallic matte texture. At the spherical joint at the end of the tentacle, there is a pocket camera, which looks at him face to face.

"Fuck!"

Wang Fanqie’s first reaction when he saw this thing was to swing the clothesline at it.

Bang!

The clothesline slammed heavily against the security railing. Its tentacles were more flexible than expected and soon disappeared without a trace.

Wang Fanqie looked blankly at the balcony below, with many doubts in his mind.

"What happened?"

Tao Xueran heard the sound on the balcony and hurried over.

At this moment, she was wearing the pleated skirt and over-the-knee socks that Wang Fanqie had just bought for her in the clothing store in the game, and little white rabbit slippers on her feet. The sunlight penetrated her black stockings, revealing her jade-like toes.

But Wang Fanqie was not in the mood to appreciate the pair of beautiful feet in stockings.

"I...saw that tentacle again."

Wang Fanqie rubbed his eyes, his face full of fear, and he was reluctant to put down the clothesline in case that thing launched a sneak attack.

"Huh? I didn't see anything. Did you get a heat stroke?"

Wang Fanqie waved his hands. How could such a real texture be an illusion?

He finally couldn't help but ask, "Miss Tao...are you...hiding something from me?"

Tao Xueran's pupils suddenly shrank, and her face showed a moment of panic, but she quickly regained her composure.

"What are you talking about? Nothing happened."

Wang Fanqie looked at Tao Xueran and felt that her behavior was a little unnatural, but he didn't want to ask too much.

After all, he has no evidence in his hands now, let alone questioning Tao Xueran. Even if he calls the police now, the police will at most treat him as a lunatic and send him home.

So, he decided to find a way to launch a sneak attack on the tentacle to see if he could capture it.

……

The game time came late on Friday night. After Tao Xueran fell asleep, Wang Fanqie forced himself to stay awake.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes and walked towards the bathroom.

Moonlight slanted in from the window. When he turned on the faucet to wash his face, suddenly, a familiar clicking sound came from outside the window, which woke him up instantly.

He approached the window cautiously and saw the tentacle poking its head out.

There was a glint of excitement in his eyes.

The barrage was shocked: "Fuck, it really exists!"

Before, every time this mechanical tentacle was seen, it disappeared without a trace under Tao Xueran's cover.

This time, he decided not to disturb Tao Xueran.

"Be good, be good, don't move~"

Wang Fanqie operated the VR sensing gloves and raised his hand to comfort the other person, just like coaxing a Husky. The camera at the end of the mechanical tentacle turned around, but did not escape immediately. Instead, it stared at Wang Fanqie curiously.

Wang Fanqie quietly picked up the mop that had been prepared long ago from the corner of the wall. He held the mop tightly, his palms sweating with nervousness.

"Be good, let me take a rest..."

As the tentacle approached the window again, he swung the mop and hit it hard with agile movements.

Crackling!

The opponent was hit instantly, and dazzling electric sparks began to emerge from his body.

The tentacles twisted in panic, quickly sank, and disappeared from the window.

However, the attack just now caused a tiny part to fall from the tentacle.

Wang Fanqie picked it up and looked at it, and found that it was a spherical camera at the end of the tentacle.

[Obtain the item "Broken Eyeball Parts." Perhaps a technician can analyze it.]

He glanced in the direction of the bedroom and silently put the camera in his pocket.

Then, he pretended to go to sleep, quietly put his ear close to the bedroom door, and looked inside through the crack.

Tao Xueran was half lying on the bed, with her cheek resting on the pillow.

The soft silk sheets gently covered her curvy body.

She was not asleep, her eyes were fixed nervously on the half-open door, observing every move in the living room.

There was a faint light in her eyes, like a cat at midnight, biting her lips tightly, afraid to make any sound.

"Heh, this man is smarter than I thought. I wanted him to slowly accept reality and trust me, but things are progressing faster than I thought. It seems I need to speed up the repairs."

When Wang Fanqie heard this, his face turned pale.

The comment section was amused: "Hahaha, Cyber ​​wife is playing tricks on you."

……

The next day, while having breakfast, neither of them mentioned what happened last night.

Wang Fanqie's gaze unconsciously drifted to the window. Looking at the place where the tentacles appeared last night, he felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.

Tao Xueran suddenly spoke:
"The weather is nice. If I have time, I want to go out shopping."

These words surprised him because this girl rarely took the initiative to suggest going out shopping before.

"Is there anything you'd like to buy?"

"No, I just want to familiarize myself with the neighborhood."

A cunning light flashed in the girl's eyes.

Wang Fanqie's expression was complicated.

"Brothers, the girl's expression always seems to be saying, it's time to take action..."
