Danrito, become a consultant for the Millennium Game!

Yuzu held up her very personal customized grenade launcher 'Meow Charge', which had pixel cat stickers designed by Yuzu herself on it, and a cute cat video playing continuously on the side. Holding it in her hand, it was like holding a large game console - no matter where they were, everyone in the game development department was showing off their 'gaming' side.

"Watch me! Hey!"

What is fired from Yuzu's grenade launcher are not ordinary bullets, but precision guided bullets. After being fired, they do not hit the enemy in a parabola, but first pause at the highest point for a moment, lock onto the enemy, and then rush into the enemy group, knocking down a large number of enemies at one time!

"He's the most shy one in the game development department, but he's the most powerful in everyday life." Danrito stood behind Yuzu, watching her guided missiles blow up a large group of enemies. He seemed to have some understanding and said, "Do all red-type characters like to be aggressive?"

Yuzu tilted her head slightly and tried to retort, "Really, really, Mr. Danrito, there's no place to enter 2887 on my Meowth!"

"And speaking of which, isn't Alice the most powerful person in the game development department?"

Tao raised her rifle from the nearby shelf and mowed down several enemies with heroic hip-fire. As the conflict erupted, the shop's customers screamed in fear. The animal citizens in the trial area clutched their heads and trembled, the robot clerks lay sprawled on the floor, and some fearless student customers automatically drew their own guns and fought back against the delinquent girls.

"Alice, come help too—" Alice saw that everyone was helping to fight back against these bad girls, and naturally her face became serious: "As a brave warrior, Alice, it's time to fight against the evil enemy!... But Alice doesn't seem to have brought the sword of light..."

The giant sword of light, or railgun, had a shoulder strap for Alice, so with her strength, she could carry it like a normal weapon. But today, because she was out buying game cartridges, Alice, persuaded by everyone, didn't bring the heavy weapon. Instead, she brought a pistol that could use Bluetooth payments. At this moment, she raised her small pistol in distress: "Alice, you can fight with this, right?"

QQ: 14 9 03 79 8

"Princess, if possible, please leave the battle to me."

Key, who was standing by, saw that his princess was distressed about this. As a loyal dog who doted on his princess, Key naturally wanted to share her worries: "I can use my Collapse Virus to materialize a weapon similar to your electromagnetic cannon anytime and anywhere--"

"Then I'll lend you this."

Danrito had stood beside Alice without her noticing, and took out the Gashacon Holy Sword and Holy Shield from his gaming area. "We don't have the Sword of Light yet, would you like to try the Ice and Fire Sword?"

134. The value of the King of Cats is still rising

"Bang Bang Ka Bang! Alice got the Holy Sword and Holy Shield!"

Alice raised the weapon in her hand, and a happy expression appeared on her face, because this was exactly the same weapon she saw in the RPG game. The holy sword and holy shield that were standard for a hero were simply perfect for her, a girl who called herself a hero!

"Princess, please be careful..."

Key called out worriedly, but Alice had already rushed out with her holy sword and shield raised in high spirits. Danrito, standing nearby, saw Key's worried look and couldn't help but laugh. "Why are you so worried? Do you doubt my gashacon weaponry is capable of dealing with these things?"

"After all, pulling out melee weapons in this world is already out of character." Key turned to Danrito beside him, "Besides, is the princess really good at using those things?"

"The Gashacon's 'Experience Grip' efficiently adapts to the user's level, unleashing combat power commensurate with their level. It's a weapon that grows with its owner." Danrito stood proudly, watching Alice charge into the line of fire with the Holy Shield raised. The automatic protection function activated, creating a 360-degree protective field around the Holy Shield, swallowing all incoming bullets. "Besides, your princess is much tougher than the average student."

"The Gashacon Armament is a weapon designed specifically for you Kamen Riders, right? The princess doesn't have the Broken Origin Antibody, so she can't mobilize the full power of the Armament."

After becoming a Collapse entity, Key naturally acquired some basic knowledge about Collapse entities, including the Kamen Rider system developed by Danrito. Data lifeforms' ability to absorb digital materials is truly remarkable. The latest GPT can flip through a hundreds-page book and record it in its database in less than a second. Surely a Collapse entity is superior to that GPT AI model, right?

"Who said that? Weren't you separated from her body?" Danrito watched his shop instantly transformed into a devastating scene, yet he showed no sign of sadness. "When you were separated as a Collapse Body, Alice already possessed some of its abilities—her original form is a bionic human, so the Collapse Body virus had minimal effect on her."

"But after all, can't you merge back into your princess yourself?" Danrito said, "What's incompatible about data and androids?"

The next second, the key beside Danrito transformed into a burst of collapsing virus, re-entering Alice's body. Alice felt her body tremble, and a crimson light flashed in her eyes, a sign that the key had returned to Alice's body.

"Your Highness, I'm here to assist you in this battle." Key's voice echoed directly from Alice's head. "You'll need a Knight Transfer Cartridge to fully unleash the power of these Gashacon weapons."

"Is it like the ancient ruins in RPG games that require four gems to activate?" Alice immediately thought of the props or mazes in those games that need to meet specific conditions to be activated.

"Well, that's exactly it."

Alice's chest flashed, and the "Final Goddess Legend Sword 2" cartridge, which served as the key and now the core, flew out of Alice's chest and was held in Alice's hand.

"Shift gears, princess."

"Oh!"

Although she had no idea where Key had gotten the line about "shifting gears," Alice still gave a powerful "oh." Then, Alice's eyes lit up crimson, and Key took over Alice's body, inserted the cartridge into the Gashacon, and pressed the special move button.

"The winning move!"

Key's eyes flashed red, and he thrust the holy sword, flipped to the ice sword side, into the ground. "Ultimate move—Freeze!"

'densetsu critlcal finish! (Legendary critical finish!)'

The traces of ice immediately grew rapidly along the floor of the store, freezing the legs of all the bad girls who rushed into the store. This was the first time they had seen such a strange attack method that was inconsistent with their common sense, and these bad girls were all panicked.

"Legs! Why are my legs frozen?" Bad Girl A frantically pulled at her frozen legs, but how could she break free so easily from the ice? "What is this? A liquid nitrogen attack?"

"Hiss—it's so cold!" Bad Girl B felt like her calves wrapped in stockings were about to freeze stiff. "Where did this ice come from?"

"Amazing! He restrained all the enemies in one go!" Xiao Tao commented in amazement. "It's a special move! And it's a special move of extremely high purity!"

"First, use the power of ice to restrict the opponent's movements over a large area. Furthermore, ice-attribute attacks won't significantly impact the surrounding environment..." Key pulled the cartridge from the Holy Sword and inserted it into the Holy Shield. The Holy Shield's special attack attributes were previously mentioned in the database that Danrito had shared with the Collapse Body.

Because it was born from the "Star Guide" cartridge, its original purpose was to protect students. Even bad girls are still students in the teacher's heart. If the purpose is to prevent students from getting hurt too much, then the special move of the gashacon holy shield is just right.

"Princess, let's shift gears and drive now."

Key returned control of his body to Alice: "The finishing move will be left to you, Princess."

"Leave it to Alice!"

The rose-red in her eyes returned to Alice's turquoise color. Holding the holy shield in her hand, Alice shouted excitedly: "The brave must kill - drink!"

'densetsu critlcal finish! (Legendary critical finish!)'

The Holy Shield's lethal energy transformed into a wall-like pressure, piercing through the bodies of these delinquent girls like a tidal wave, instantly sapping their strength. As they collapsed due to the draining of their strength, the ice that restrained them also dissipated.

'A strike of protection! '

After activation, if the target is a "student," it will inevitably result in a fatal attack. A gentle punishment without losing severity, it simply robs the student of their physical strength according to their crime, rendering them defenseless. This is the exclusive ultimate move of the Gashacon Holy Shield.

"Bang Bang Ka Bang! Alice, we defeated the enemy! Your experience points should go up!"

Standing atop a pile of collapsed containers and scattered cassettes, Alice raised her holy sword. Illuminated by the overhead light, she looked like a brave little hero.

"That's awesome, Alice!" Xiaotao ran up and hugged Alice: "So cool!"

The Collapse Virus that had scattered from Alice's body regrouped into the form of Key, who was clearly relieved. Seeing the happy faces of his princess and her friends, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "As long as the princess is happy and not injured, that's all that matters."

"Hmm... that sword is amazing." Yuzu wiped the sweat off his head and breathed a sigh of relief, but he mostly looked at the sword and shield in Yuzu's hands: "Mr. Danrito always comes up with surprises that we never expected."

"But, this mess all over the ground..."

Xiaolu said a little frustratedly: "This means that nothing is protected!"

"It doesn't matter!" Xiao Tao beside her raised her thumbs up: "As long as there is light!"

"Where does that confidence come from?"

Xiaolu apologized a little embarrassedly to Danrito, who was still standing upright beside him: "...Sorry, it seems that the scene has become a bit messy?"

"Don't worry, at this moment, the value of the King of Cats is revealed."

Danrito waved his hand nonchalantly, then pulled out a cassette that looked familiar to Momo. Sharp-eyed Momo pointed at the pink cassette in Danrito's hand and exclaimed, "Ah! It's the long-unseen 'King of Cats'!"

Danrito pressed a button, and the game world of "Cat King" launched, covering the dire situation of the shop. A familiar group of cat construction workers crawled out. Following Danrito's orders, they immediately began to clean up and repair the shop with efficient work efficiency.

"Next, just wait until the half-hour progress bar is over." Danrito patted Momo's shoulder. "That's why I told you, Momo, this cassette tape of yours is quite useful."

Seeing that the cats in front of them had already started working, the students who were still standing there stared at each other in amazement. One student seemed to be so adorable that he couldn't resist the urge to touch these cute cats.

Finally, one student boldly asked, "Um...can I pet the cats?"

After getting permission, the children in the store rushed directly to the cat construction team that was working on the project, and started petting these little cuties. Even Yuzu seemed to have joined the cat-petting team.

"Hmm, it's become a signature attraction, hasn't it?" Tan Lidou nodded as he watched the unprecedented cat-stroking spectacle unfold before him. "The King of Cats' status is still rising!"

135. Episode at the Gehenna Branch

There is no doubt that the game cartridges of Huanmeng Company have set off a craze in Kivotos. Whether it is the completely innovative gaming technology or the popularity of the Millennium Awards, the fully simulated game cartridges are eye-catching and popular in the eyes of this group of students who like new things.

"Sales of this kind on the first day alone..."

A'lu, or rather, the manager of the Dream Game Store in the Gehenna School District—Lu Bamo A'lu, pushed up his glasses and looked at the sales statistics in his hand with a look of shock: "One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, one hundred thousand..."

"Don't count, we've already exceeded 10 million in sales, and this is just the first day's turnover."

Kayoko wiped the sweat from her face with a towel. They'd been busy all day just serving customers. Even with the help of the robot clerks, the store was still packed with students and locals. Two hours after the sale started, Kayoko decisively sent a request to headquarters for more stock—stock levels were already visibly low!

"Haa ...

Just as every school district has its own group of delinquent girls, the delinquent girls on Gehenna's side are even more powerful than Qiannian's. Furthermore, apart from these delinquent girls, the students of Gehenna Academy are known for their simple and honest nature.

First, there was the explosion of the Hot Spring Development Department, and then there was the bombing of a black-hearted restaurant by the Food Research Association. The impulsive students of Gehena will not hesitate to use any means to get the "things" they need.

As she thought about this, Alu recalled the commotion over the Splatoon that morning, sparked by the robot clerk's words, "Sorry, classmate, we're down to the last Splatoon." The hot-tempered students and delinquents had drawn their weapons and engaged in a brawl. It was only thanks to Mutsuki and Haruka's powerful firepower, and Kayoko's ability to lure the fight outside the store, that the damage was minimized.

"Ahaha~ After all, everyone is going to give their all to fight for something they like, right?"

Mutsuki held his cheeks with his hands and sat on a high stool in front of the bar. The robot waiter brought him the juice cocktail he ordered - probably with an alcohol content similar to that of Rio.

"That's true...but isn't everyone's enthusiasm a bit too high?"

Alu put down the bill in her hand that had made her brain tremble. The turnover of just one day was equivalent to half of the income of the highest income year when Alu and her colleagues were running Convenience House 68.

"Luckily, Kayoko called the head office in advance to send another batch of goods..." Haruka's expression finally relaxed, and Kayoko handed the towel and water cup to Haruka at the right time. "Luckily, we finally satisfied everyone before everyone threw grenades around, otherwise..."

As if imagining the branch being handed over to them reduced to ruins, Haruka's inferiority complex began to imagine the worst possible outcome: "Well, in that case, my only atonement would be death. Uh uh uh..."

"Ah la la~ I never get tired of seeing Haruka's self-pitying face." The little devil Mutsuki smiled and brought the drink to his mouth. Amusing himself with the various jokes of his companions was also Mutsuki's old-fashioned way of entertainment.

"Come to think of it, we've been selling our bodies to that guy for quite some time, right?" Mutsuki suddenly brought up the topic, and Alu beside him looked flustered. "W-What do you mean by selling our bodies?! That description isn't even close to accurate, is it?"

"After all, our main business, the 'convenience store', hasn't been open for a long time."

Mutsuki leaned his elbows on the bar. Actually, this wasn't a bar outside, but rather an employee welfare bar within the Dream Group headquarters in District D.U. However, the robot workers didn't use it, and there were no other students in the entire company. So, Convenience House 68 and his group, who were both students and Dream employees—albeit non-staff members—naturally made regular use of this exquisitely decorated company bar.

The company bar, which was decorated according to Dan Rito's standards, was no less exquisitely decorated than commercial bars outside, even if it was only used as a facility for employee welfare. It reminded people of the Xialai Café, which was also being renovated in Dan Rito's office in the Xialai Sanctuary.

As things got busier, Danrito spent less time at Millennium's game development department, instead splitting his time between the offices of the Xialai Federal Investigation Agency and the president's office in the Dream Group building. Dream Group was just starting out, so there was still a lot of work to be done—this had nothing to do with Danrito's efficiency. He was certainly very efficient, but the tasks he dealt with took time to process.

"Hasn't Lu already forgotten about the time at Convenience House 68?"

Mutsuki's words were essentially a taunt to see the embarrassed look on Lu's face. Mutsuki's pastime had always been to fan the flames of Lu's anger, then watch her force him into some unfortunate situation, and then watch Lu suffer the consequences, and this time was no exception.

"Forgotten something! No way!"

Ah Lu's face was filled with panic. She seemed genuinely afraid that her current actions would be interpreted by her fellow occupants as her having forgotten her past. "I definitely haven't forgotten my days as a lawless thug! The time we spent at Convenience House 68 is a precious memory for everyone and me. I'll never forget it!"

"Wow..." Mutsuki's expression remained unchanged, but the corners of his mouth lifted unconsciously, "Alu can also say some sentimental words~ Really, I'm so moved."

"Wow, even I am considered one of Alu-sama's precious memories..." Haruka was so moved that she burst into tears, "Me! I will follow Alu-sama for the rest of my life!"

"Really? You don't have to stress about this," Kayoko said. She could tell it was Mutsuki who was fueling Aru's anger, but Aru usually spoke her mind when she felt that way. Hearing Aru's feelings for everyone, Kayoko, unusually, didn't criticize Mutsuki.

136. Create happiness with your heart

"But since signing the employee contract with that Danrito, our conditions have indeed improved a lot."

Kayoko looked around. The size of the staff bar they were in was much more spacious than the office they had originally rented.

The office on the second floor that Danrito allowed them to use not only had complete bathroom facilities and a separate lounge, but was also larger than their previous office.

More importantly, the geographical location of this office building is very good. It is located in the most prosperous commercial street in the center of DU area. The land value can be said to be much better than the office they rented before.

By the way, the people from Convenience House 68 have always had dormitories to live in at Gehena College, so why don’t they go back to live in the dormitories?

Well... as everyone knows, there are various reasons. Haruka is extremely shy, Kayoko has a minor disagreement with Pandemonium, and Rue has chosen this lifestyle because of her admiration for outlaws. And Rue's childhood friend, the imp Mutsuki, is a fun-loving person who only joined Convenience House 68 by following Rue's lead.

"They're a big company after all, and the products they've put out are really tempting to buy. They've been rumored to be releasing a love game soon, which is amazing... a love game~"

Mutsuki picked up a game cartridge. It was the "Dragon Hunter Z" cartridge she brought back from the store after get off work today. "This is the first time I've heard of the gaming field."

"Speaking of which, it's truly incredible." Like Mutsuki, who noticed the mystery, Kayoko was naturally curious about the technology contained in the cartridge. "I'm sure you've experienced that kind of gaming experience before, right? It's completely different from the games you play today using game consoles or even VR technology. It's more like..."

Kayoko recalled the feeling: "It was more like our consciousness was transported to another world and then sent back after the tour was over."

"And no matter how you observe the players, it all seems quite normal to outsiders. But how can I describe this normality..." Kayoko recalled all the adjectives she had learned so far, but couldn't find a completely correct expression to describe this phenomenon. "This makes me feel very... confused."

"For things like this, we'll know if we just try it again, right?" Mutsuki grinned, holding up the Dragon Knight Hunter Z cartridge in his hand. "It just so happens that this is a game that allows four people to play together online. We have a lot of free time now, so why not discuss this matter slowly in the game world?"
