#253 - The country is about to fall, and the land is full of ship girls (2 in 1 request)
Looking at the voting list on the scene, the score of "Hyperdimensional Moe Girl" was getting higher and higher, his mouth opened for a long time without closing.
And the crowded crowd in front of the Tao Yuan乡(桃源乡: Peach Garden Village) booth made him a little dazed.
His face changed uncertainly, sometimes red and sometimes white, his expression complex.
He was mentally prepared to be surpassed by foreign manufacturers, but he never expected that he could be completely crushed by Tao Yuan乡(桃源乡: Peach Garden Village).
The overly shocking reality made him forget for a while that there were still many media and players waiting for his response at the booth.
"So, Mr. Producer, may I ask, for this year's Tianzun Cup, will Collapse 3 have any follow-up actions?"
Faced with the reporter's repeated questions, Tianwu adjusted his expression:
"Of course, as we all know, what Mileyou is best at is IP and character shaping. In the next few days of the Tianzun Cup, we will definitely have new actions to reflect our advantages!"
......
And the video comment section of Bei Bian Jianfeng of Zhongyuan Five Editors, who originally satirized Tao Yuan乡(桃源乡: Peach Garden Village), was also captured by the players of Tao Yuan乡(桃源乡: Peach Garden Village).
"Look at the crowded people at the Tao Yuan乡(桃源乡: Peach Garden Village) booth, can you perform that again? That is... deserted?"
"Jianfeng: The supreme art of war is speed. Tao Yuan乡(桃源乡: Peach Garden Village): The supreme Moe Girl is lewd but not fragrant. Funny.jpg"
"Jianfeng, why are you always misjudging things lately? I just want to say that this time Collapse 3 is going to be finished."
"Attitude determines altitude, this is what you said, now you've been slapped in the face, right?"
"Either it's jealousy, or it's a paid manuscript. Anyway, the reputation of Zhongyuan Five Editors has long been stinky, why not just make some dirty money."
"Hey, is this what a game review UP master is like? Find a factory to work in."
"Actually, there is no point in this kind of argument. Playing games is about having fun, regardless of the corporate culture, support it if it's fun!"
......
At this time, a high-rise apartment in the imperial capital.
Jianfeng sat dejectedly in his chair, silently rubbing his temples.
This time, Tao Yuan乡's(桃源乡: Peach Garden Village) deadly move was really beyond his expectations.
"Cough, I actually fell into the hands of Tao Yuan乡(桃源乡: Peach Garden Village) twice."
Jianfeng smiled mockingly and shook his head.
Just then, the phone rang, and Thomas's voice came from inside:
"Hey, Jianfeng, I have a new business deal from Youyi, a business deal about a new VR project, do you want to take it?"
"Take it my ass!" Jianfeng couldn't help complaining.
"Thomas, why are the business deals you introduce always so bad? Now, the whole internet is scolding me!"
Thomas's voice revealed a trace of apology:
"Oh, Jianfeng, I didn't expect this to happen either.
I learned through some inside information that Tao Yuan乡(桃源乡: Peach Garden Village) seems to have always been operating in a Buddhist style, and I didn't expect this new game to be so popular."
"Hmph, do you think I don't know you, kid? I was wondering why you even gave up on joint submissions, so you were guarding against this."
Thomas was about to continue explaining, but was hung up directly by the other party.
"Hey..."
He sighed, looked at the rhythm on Weibo, and was glad that he hadn't waded into this muddy water.
"Heh, think this is the end? Don't forget, there are five of us. Next, the really awesome ones should appear!"
......
After the first day of the Tianzun Cup ended, Lu Yu returned to the company and began to read online game reviews from players.
But soon, he found that the entry #My Hyperdimensional Journey# topped the Tianzun Cup super topic trending searches on Weibo.
After carefully reading the comments from many players,
it turned out that after everyone downloaded the game, they were surprised to find that the game content that everyone played was different!
For example, some people got not the slime girl, but the spider girl in the village chief's house.
Some players walked a long time on the grassland and finally encountered an ancient castle, where they encountered a vampire girl.
What's even more outrageous is that some players killed the leader of the Minotaur tribe through stealth, and after equipping the other party's crown and scepter, the entire tribe of Minotaurs actually respected him as the new leader.
However, although the open world experience and side quests are different for each player,
the main storyline of the game will basically converge to meeting the magic beast leader Tanzer and traveling to the future with his sister Fina.
Many players left messages sighing:
"Damn, this game has too much freedom, it's simply a different world that breathes!"
"That's right, I feel that in this world, everyone from the goddess to the bottom people has their own soul."
"Don't you think this is cool? I think it's so cool, it fits my imagination of open world games."
"Upstairs, what's a cyber Dingzhen."
Seeing the players' comments, and thinking about the various abnormal situations encountered during today's live broadcast, Lu Yu quickly called the members of the project team to inquire.
"President Lu, we originally wanted to wait until you finished the live broadcast before telling you about this."
Xu Qin explained uneasyly: In fact, the texture errors, UI garbled characters, and storyline out of control that Lu Yu encountered during the live broadcast were all bugs,
and even, because the artificial intelligence that Chu Xiong inserted into the game was too powerful, no one dared to guarantee that even stranger bugs would appear later.
They all looked at Lu Yu uneasyly, thinking that President Lu was probably going to deduct their performance bonuses.
Unexpectedly, after listening to Xu Qin's report, Lu Yu's slightly frowned brows gradually relaxed:
"You guys did a good job, a good job!"
He originally thought that because the live broadcast effect and the reaction of the players at the scene were too explosive, the game was likely to become Tao Yuan乡's(桃源乡: Peach Garden Village) new hit product and drive a new round of business expansion and involution in the entire company.
Unexpectedly, it turned out that those random elements in the live broadcast were not the result of the project team's involution, but the result of being too slack and producing bugs?!
You should have said so earlier, you made me so nervous during the live broadcast!
Although today's live broadcast effect was very good, it was at most a lucky hit.
He didn't believe that Hyperdimensional Moe Girl's luck could continue to be so good,
bugs are bugs after all, and plus, the player base is here, problems are bound to happen sooner or later.
At that time, he can use this as an excuse to persuade company employees to further give up involution.
"You guys did a great job, since it's online, go home early, leave work an hour early today!"
Lu Yu waved his hand, feeling happy.
"??????"
The members of the project team looked at each other in dismay.
What is President Lu singing?
They thought that President Lu would definitely hold them accountable, and then let everyone work overtime to fix bugs.
Du Biao said uneasyly: "President Lu, there are already quite a few bugs that were discovered in today's live broadcast alone, who knows if there will be new bugs later, should we stay and work overtime to fix them? After all, this is our responsibility."
"Fix what?"
Lu Yu rolled his eyes:
"Just leave it alone. I'm telling you, those are not bugs, just treat them as game features, after all, there are unexpected surprises everywhere in life, let alone games, it's good to let players have fun."
Of course, as a former game producer, he knew that what he said was pure nonsense, and no game project would allow bugs that would get the story stuck.
However, these words made Liu Mengyuan, who was listening attentively on the side, tremble.
Surprises everywhere in life?!
Isn't this Lu Yu's new development hint?!
She also chimed in: "President Lu is right, these things should be explained to the outside world as game features."
Everyone looked at each other in dismay.
Is this... really okay?
But, the company's management has said so, what can they say.
Hopefully there won't be any problems in the next few days of the live broadcast.
......
The next day, Lu Yu and Liu Mengyuan continued to come to the Tianzun Cup Carnival scene to live stream the game.
Completely different from the deserted in front of the booth yesterday.
Today, before the game live broadcast even started, a massive number of players had gathered in front of the booth to watch.
Lu Yu was calm and composed, and clicked on the game to continue yesterday's progress.
After the opening animation was played, Xiaoyu showed Aida a few of his clothes and his personal sword.
When Aida discovered that the things on the protagonist's body were indeed very similar to the ancient artifacts in the archaeological museum, her face became serious.
"Not long ago, the city broadcast stated that unexplained spatial vibrations were detected. Could it be that you came over at that time?"
Seeing a living ancient person appear in front of her, Aida was very excited,
but, surrounded by the city federation's mecha girl patrolmen, she took Xiaoyu and his Moe Girl partners back to her home.
......
Aida's home is a luxurious apartment located on the top of a floating city.
As soon as he entered the door, Lu Yu discovered that Aida seemed to be a very enthusiastic weapon otaku.
Her home was filled with various mecha chariots and gun models and posters.
The room also had a specially set up game area, equipped with a large-screen virtual reality device.
In the glass cabinet in the corner of the bedroom, stood a mecha Moe Girl based on the "Springfield" rifle.
The Springfield gun girl's body lines were slender, her arms were like delicate triggers, and her back was decorated with a gun muzzle shape.
She held a miniature Springfield rifle in her hand, and the various parts of the gun were meticulously restored,
the metal-textured mecha armor was very delicately detailed, and the gaps in the armor were like silicone-like delicate skin.
The glass cabinet was set with soft LED lights, and under the light, her mechanical devices and weapon parts emitted a faint luster.
Although she was equipped with powerful firepower, her eyes were big and agile, and her pretty face was still cute.
A wire probed into Springfield's pleated skirt, as if she was charging.
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!
"This is my Moe Girl partner. About a few years ago, I accidentally obtained a very well-preserved Springfield rifle. So, I used the only 'Moe God Crystal' in my hand on her to turn this gun into a girl."
Xiaoyu asked curiously: "Are you still using God Crystals in this era?"
"Of course!" Aida said as she opened the cabinet.
"It should be said that our entire developed civilization is built on the use of 'God Crystals'."
Xiaoyu pointed to his Fire Dragon Girl: "This one was also turned into a girl by me using God Crystals, but she doesn't seem to have such a strange charging method, she just needs to eat."
"Heh, maybe this is a function unique to machines. They don't need to eat or metabolize, they just need wires."
Aida leaned closer to Springfield's face and looked at it.
At this time, although Springfield's eyes were empty, the cheeks on both sides had gradually appeared with an increasingly strong flush.
"Hmm... her face is the charging indicator. The redder it is, the fuller it is charged. Let me see, it's almost done."
With that, she grabbed the wire and then suddenly pulled it out.
啵~
With a crisp sound like a red wine bottle being opened, Springfield's gun girl's dull eyes regained their brilliance.
"Ah... oh... uh..."
Springfield's legs bent into an inward eight, holding the wall panting, her cherry mouth spitting out wisps of hot air.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead and then tidied her skirt.
"Thank you for the feeding, master, Springfield is full of energy!"
The barrage was happy and complained:
"This charging link is a bit terrible."
"Cough, I must be overthinking, I'm guilty."
"I'm also guilty."
At this time, the faces of the project team members watching the live broadcast turned green.
He Chuming from other project groups asked: "Did we set up such a strange charging step for mechanical Moe Girls?"
Everyone shook their heads like rattles.
Chu Xiong's old face was red, and he held his forehead helplessly:
"Obviously, this is a feature evolved by the NPCs themselves because there are no AI behavior restrictions."
Considering that Xiaoyu was an ancient person from 3000 years ago, Aida continued to introduce him to the future world.
"In the last year of the Goddess Era, that is, the first year of the New Era, an unprecedented cataclysm occurred on the earth,
This cataclysm has made the ground unsuitable for living beings to live on. Therefore, we used God Crystal technology to build a large number of floating cities.
And this 'Mobile City Alpha' is the largest fortress city and capital of the 'Sky Federation'.
And what protects our fortress city is a large number of gun girls, knife girls, chariot girls, plane girls, and ship girls..."
With that, Aida pulled Xiaoyu to the balcony to overlook the entire floating city.
On the road in front of them, a row of UMP45 gun girls wearing gorgeous armor, waving the submachine guns in their hands, the gun heads emitting a faint light, like a meteor streaking across the night sky.
In the training ground further away, the knife girls were agile, wearing light mecha clothing, holding various laser knives and laser swords, she lightly soared into the air, the blade cutting the air, leaving a string of beautiful arcs.
On the main road, a team of huge chariot girls formed a mecha phalanx, their shoes were similar to chariot chassis and tracks, their well-proportioned bodies were covered with sturdy armor, the tracks rolled over the ground, making a deafening sound.
Another team of chariot girls carried powerful firepower, the giant cannons spitting out flames, the rumble of explosions echoed in the city.
In the air, a group of fighter girls, with mechanical wings deployed on their backs, soared in the blue sky, they quickly passed through the clouds, leaving a string of flight paths and a lot of sonic booms.
Xiao Yu was stunned by the sight before him, and Ada handed him a pair of binoculars.
"You can take a look at the fortress airport in the distance. There are even bigger moe girls stationed there."
Xiao Yu raised the binoculars and saw a huge destroyer girl docked at the distant airport.
Her body was about 18 meters tall, like a mobile castle, and the huge naval guns in her hands gleamed with metallic luster in the sunlight.
Although she was very large, the moe girl had a loli figure. The bridge composed of her torso was adorned with lights, like a radiant castle.
She was wearing a JK sailor uniform, with a row of anti-ship missile launchers in front of her chest, and close-in defense guns strapped to her fair thighs.
And the propellers formed a pair of leather shoes.
Ada said with a smile: "This is the Federal Navy's destroyer 'Yukikaze'. I believe that with her guarding it, this fortress city will be foolproof!"
Xiao Yu subconsciously raised the binoculars, looking from the bottom up.
"Huh...from this angle?"
Hiss...
At this time, the live broadcast room was flooded with comments:
"Wow, blue and white stripes, dotted with strawberry patterns."
"Since the first game, Touyuan Township still likes blue and white stripes so much, I'm so touched."
"Why does a destroyer have to have a pleated skirt and blue and white underwear too?"
"What's wrong with destroyers? Aren't we all beautiful girls? I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
"Tsk tsk tsk, the country is about to fall, and there are ship girls everywhere."
...
Putting down the binoculars, Xiao Yu asked curiously:
"You just said that they are guarding this fortress. Could it be that the monsters on the ground will attack?"
"Since the Great Cataclysm, the monsters on the ground have become increasingly weak and no longer have the ability to attack the Federal Army.
Now, the reason why these mecha girls are patrolling so nervously is to guard against another group of mecha girls—those who have broken away from the control of the Federation and are called 'Resistance' by us."
Afterwards, Ada briefly introduced the birth history of the Resistance.
Since the beginning of the New Era, mankind has carried out a large number of industrial technology revolutions based on 'Moe·God Crystals'.
Among them, the most important technology is the artificial manufacturing and mass production of God Crystals.
Since then, moe girls can be artificially mass-produced, and the cost of moe-fication has been greatly reduced.
Moreover, compared to ordinary humans, moe girls eat less, are energetic, and work more.
As a result, many consortiums began to have ulterior motives.
Some moe girls were assigned to factories, working overtime day and night, and were scrapped and replaced with a new batch of moe girls when they fell at their posts.
The good-looking moe girls were arranged to enter the sex industry, and even enjoyed by the high-level officials of the Federation, and their fate was quite miserable.
When some moe girls protested, the Federal management officer replied:
"Moe girls are a kind of item. They are born to be driven and enslaved by humans."
"Why do they need rights? They don't have the qualifications."
"Will you give your poultry the same rights as you?"
So, some moe girls, who could no longer bear it, finally rose up and formed the Resistance.
It has been nearly 20 years since the moe girls rebelled.
To this day, they still occupy a mechanical factory and constantly harass human fortress cities.
Ada analyzed:
"You just said that you and your sister were separated in the space-time turbulence. I guess your sister may have been captured by the Resistance.
Haruta is familiar with many patrolling mecha girls in the city. I'll have her ask around for you."
After Xiao Yu described his sister's appearance, the earphone antennas on both sides of Haruta stood up and began to communicate with a beeping sound.
After a while, she nodded:
"A mecha girl saw your sister when she was fighting the Resistance. She was taken to the mechanical factory by the Resistance."
