Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 1113: Chapter 1021: Rescue Pen Pal Operation!_1 Chapter 1113: Chapter 1021: Rescue Pen Pal Operation!_1 “Dark Soul”, this game, is really a perfect one for the fun-loving people.

The entire city is fraught with danger, traps and forks are everywhere, and it’s teeming with all kinds of sinister little monsters.

From blind spot backstabbing, meeting love around the corner, stepping on traps and dying together with players, to only skeletons lying on the ground, only jumping up with surprise when players pass by…

Various tricks are constantly appearing.

It’s easy for newcomers to fall into this treacherous environment.

Now there are countless audiences popping up, absorbing such information from the entire network while misleading the streamers to have fun in the barrage.

The frequency of streamers stepping into traps and being scared has increased by countless times.

The entire network is full of fun-loving people in the end.

So much so that even “sister might be gone”, which should have been furiously criticized by players, wasn’t making much noise for a while.

— Of course, a not small reason is that everyone doesn’t believe Cloud Dream will do such an outrageous thing.

But being less noisy, is not that no one cares, but the wave of fun-loving people is just too powerful.

Those who care are all focusing on pushing the main storyline.

Nishino Chizuru is essentially a casual player.

She’s been pretty laid-back when playing games that are challenging.

But now, facing the somewhat over-standard “Dark Soul”, she has no intention of being laid-back at all, she started excavating the game with full force since it was released.

After 41 deaths, she successfully took down the first BOSS, and went inside the city without any hesitation, heading straight to the Imperial City, looking for clues about her sister Shirley.

She’s really eager to save the girl!

Because she is not just saving a simple virtual character, but also her pen pal.

She really treats Shirley as a little sister!

Arranged by Cloud Dream, after the first chapter of “Chang’an” ends, Shirley will occasionally send Pigeon Post, write letters to players, in order to build emotional connections between players and Shirley.

Most players, though, just end after reading the content of the letter — at most they would collect the letter after reading it.

But Chizuru Nishino, she’s different.

The moment she received her first letter, she had an idea —

She personally handwrote a letter, always carried it with her.

When Shirley sent a letter for the second time, she caught the pigeon that delivered the letter and took out Shirley’s letter.

Then she stuffed her own reply back in.

Chizuru wanted to try if this pigeon could really return to Shirley.

According to the traditional gaming operating logic, that certainly isn’t possible.

But in Cloud Dream led by Lincoln, it’s totally different — Chizuru’s actions were captured by the system that day and fed back to the development team here.

Then, the development team immediately added a free communication module to “Shirley” — being the chief character of a serial game, “Shirley” surely has secondary artificial intelligence, and at a very high level!

Communicating with players is a piece of cake for her.

So the next day, Nishino Chizuru received a reply from Shirley.

After that, the two of them would communicate two or three letters every week, and this has become a habit of Chizuru.

Until one day, Shirley suddenly disappeared.

The good news came very quickly: it was because the third chapter of “Chang’an” was released.

Chizuru wasn’t disappointed but felt a little excited.

Because it shows: in the latest chapter, there is a part for Shirley!

So she would leave the “idle” state and enter the main line of the game to cooperate with Cloud Dream’s plot development.

But she was not happy for long.

She saw in the trailer released by the Metropolitan News that Shirley was beaten and she seemed to be seriously injured.

This immediately gave her a bad hunch.

After that, Chizuru started hoping for the game to launch soon so she could help.

And then today, the game finally launched.

She can’t wait to enter the game, come to the Demon Luoyang City, touch the “Dragon Abyss Sword” on the BOSS’s chest, and also see the illusion left by Shirley.

The sense of foreboding became a reality——

Shirley left behind Master’s sword and went in with her wounded body to make a final fight.

If she failed again this time, she would hardly have any chance of survival!

The only thing Queenie could count on now was conscience of the development team of Cloud Dream, hoping they wouldn’t really get rid of Shirley.

——Such a thing could only be pinned on the development team because everyone knows: Lincoln has no conscience.

He’s capable of doing anything!

After Queenie put her utmost effort in defeating the gatekeeper BOSS, she finally entered the city.

She ignited the first flame of the earth veins under the guide of the mobs.

Then, without losing any headway, she headed straight for the Imperial City——where the combat took place in the trailer.

After being slashed to death 8 times in a row by Larry, she came to a realization——there’s no gate behind this BOSS, why don’t I go around it if I can’t beat it?

It took her a great deal of effort to bypass the BOSS, find her way back to Sky Street, and continue on.

She kept going until she reached the end of Sky Street.

In the past, the end of Sky Street was three bridges over the Luo River, but now, all the bridges were destroyed by the mutation, and the river water has become torrential.

Queenie tried to cross the river, but after drowning three times, she had to give up.

She then teleported back to the city gate through the purified fire of the earth veins, following the distribution of the demon fire and embarked on the main route set up by Cloud Dream.

That is, she headed east.

Super Tomato also took this route.

But Queenie who hadn’t participated in the closed beta found this route a lot bumpier compared to Super Tomato.

Falling rocks, rollers, dead ends, forks, surprisingly appearing mobs, and mobs teeming in groups…

She was risking her life at every step——Luckily, Cloud Dream was considerate in its game design aspect; the position of the earth vein fire was reasonably placed so it wasn’t too painful to run back after dying.

After dying twenty consecutive times, Queenie finally encountered a new storyline——

A live human appeared before her eyes.

——or rather, a “little human”.

That’s because it was a girl who only looked about thirteen or fourteen years old, her body was covered with strange armor filled with gears and springs, indicating that she might be a mechanic.

When Queenie saw her, she was being chased by a BOSS and several mobs, and it looked as though she was about to be caught.

Queenie rushed to save her.

Then in less than 20 seconds, she was smashed into pancakes by the mobs.

——She severely underestimated the strength of the mobs…

Revived with spirits high, she moved forward again.

Then died again.

Queenie was once again stuck in a bitter battle.

For the fourth time, she successfully defeated five chased mobs.

At this point, the very courteous BOSS finally stepped forward.

A familiar blood-red large character introduced the name of this BOSS——

Ashina Chengqing

This BOSS was also a giant, a good 1.5 times the height of Queenie.

But compared to the previous two highly muscular BOSSes, he was somewhat “slim”, and did not exert a strong sense of oppression with his strength.

And he also appeared to be a disabled person——his right arm was not made of flesh and blood, but a wooden prosthetic limb.

This inevitably made Queenie let her guard down a bit.

Then, the BOSS taught her a lesson——

Do not be easily deceived by appearances!
