"Wow! Boss!" Jiang Xiaoyue walked downstairs and gasped at the sight of the spacious internet café, "Is this really our shop?"
She ran out of the door and looked curiously. "Ugh? I don't see new shopfronts..."
"Why are you standing here at the door?" Nalan Hongwu didn't have anything to do and thus came to the shop usually in the early morning. The moment that he got near the shop, he saw people gathering around the door and Jiang Xiaoyue hopping in and out of the door.
Fang Qi said with a dark expression, "It's just an expansion of shop. You guys don't have to act so astonished!"
"You're right!" Nalan Hongwu gave them a hard look at the door. "You're standing out here because of that?"
When he entered the door, he shivered instantly!
"..."
His eyeballs bulged. "So huge?"
Su Tianji exclaimed, "That senior is fathomable. He transformed the small shop to this state all by himself!"
"From now on, we can't call it a small shop anymore!" Dong Qingli clicked her tongue and said, "It became this big after only one night! There are so many more computers! Did that senior make them recently?"
"Ugh? This feels even softer than demon beast fur?" Zhang Wanyu sat on a couch. "It's so bouncy!"
"Really? Let me try!"
Jiang Xiaoyue chimed in, "I'll try it too!"
Fang Qi covered his face and said, "Are you going to play or not?"
"What's the hurry? We don't have to wait in line anyway!" Su Tianji leaned back on the couch comfortably, looking lazy and relaxed. "Girls, prepare a bowl of noodles for your master!"
"Okay, Master!" Fenghua and Yuexin went to make noodles cheerfully.
Fang Qi was at a loss for words.
"Well, I'll eat a bowl of instant noodles as well!" After all, they had finished watching the TV series, and they couldn't eat and play games at the same time. Nalan Hongwu lounged on the couch like an old good-for-nothing. "By the way, when will you release the seventh and the eighth episodes of Jade Dynasty?"
"It's only Thursday!" Fang Qi also lounged on the couch. "Xiaoyue, prepare a bowl of noodles for me too."
Jiang Xiaoyue had tears in her eyes. I can only prepare noodles but can't eat...
…
Fang Qi took a bite of the instant noodles and glanced at the task list on the System Interface.
Sitting on the couch, the others laughed and talked while eating instant noodles, oblivious of what was in store for them…
While this group of people sat together and ate noodles, customers began to come into the internet cafe. When Song Qingfeng and the others walked into the door, they saw Fang Qi writing something on the blackboard.
"Sir! What are you writing?" After praising the new environment of the internet cafe, Song Qingfeng and his buddies walked up. "Seriously? New items again?!"
"Yeah." Fang Qi nodded.
"To fill in the mental void after watching Jade Dynasty and to deal with the unsteady mind and weak fortitude one might experience with fast-growing strength, our shop has especially made this game for you," Fang Qi said with a kind and naïve smile.
If you have problems with it, take them to the System, Fang Qi murmured silently.
"Silent Hill?" Xu Zixin also walked up. "It has been a while since the shop released a game. Is this a new game?"
"A new game?" Nalan Hongwu and Su Tianji also walked up with bowls of instant noodles in their hands. Despite the new items in the shop recently, they hadn't seen a new game for a while.
Su Tianji was playing the Legend of the Sword and Fairy for the third time. While she was still playing Counter Strike, she had fewer rivals on her skill level, and she wasn't interested in playing with new players.
She could only gain some fun when Fang Qi played with her.
Nalan Hongwu was in the same situation. He had finished Act III in Diablo and was waiting for Act IV, so he spent his time on trying to get new items in Diablo and playing Counter Strike with the more experienced players.
While they waited for the update of Jade Dynasty, a new game was a good way to entertain themselves!
However…
"Silent Hill?" They looked at each other, finding this name quite weird.
"To deal with an unsteady mind and weak fortitude?" Nalan Hongwu thought for a while and said, "It's a game to toughen one's mind. You young people indeed need some toughening."
"It's good of you to consider this point," Su Tianji looked at Fang Qi and said in surprise.
She was stunned that this shop's games could even toughen one's mind and eliminate internal evils!
This was an extraordinary feature for not only the young people but also high-level cultivators like her. After all, the higher one's cultivation strength was, the more difficult it was for them to overcome the internal evils during the process of cultivation.
Su Tianji wondered if she had any mental weaknesses and if the game could help her handle them.
Fang Qi shrugged and replied, "We offer a full range of services."
"The new game is so good? It can toughen one's mind?!" As one of the most experienced players, Xu Zixin had gained a lot of strength and was worried that her mind was unstable due to her fast progress. Besides, she loved trying new things, so she said, "Sir! Activate Silent Hill 2 for me!"
Fang Qi warned them, "By the way, this game has some special settings that are different from other games. For example, you can't exit the virtual reality mode during a battle, and you can't lower the pain sensation to below 50%."
He explained the new settings of the new game. For example, in Resident Evil, if the players gave up resistance and were close to death, they could exit directly from the virtual reality mode and return to the keyboard and mouse control to avoid the sense of pain.
However, if they went into a battle in this game, they couldn't exit the virtual reality mode unless the character died. The other option was playing the game with the keyboard and mouse the entire way, but the effect would only be a little better than watching the livestream, which wasn't that good of an experience.
Besides, the System would automatically switch off external communication when the players entered the main plot; the new function was said to be set up to avoid noise pollution.
"Sir, aren't you playing the new game today?" Nalan Mingxue came over and asked him; she just suddenly appeared.
Fang Qi glanced around the internet cafe and said, "Now that I don't have to fight for a computer, I'll watch for a while first."
"Oh. Then, I'll watch it too." Nalan Mingxue bought a bottle of Coke and stood behind to watch.
"Shall we play it?" Zhang Wanyu asked.
"Let's watch it first." Dong Qingli hadn't finished the Legend of the Sword and Fairy and Diablo yet, so she didn't think that she had time for three games.
"I want to watch the new game!" Jiang Xiaoyue joined them.
"Hahaha! We can play a new game today!" Lin Shao and Xu Luo also walked over. "Young Master Song! Let's be the first players and explore the game!"
"Master, shall we play together?" Fenghua and Yuexin had activated the game already.
"Sir, does this game have the option of multiplayer?" Su Tianji asked.
"No."
"Then, just watch how I kill my way out!" Su Tianji said to her disciples with confidence.
"Okay! Master, your gaming skills are excellent!"
"Then, we'll watch it first."
