Chapter 475: NPC in the Emerald Dream?
Finally, the energy fluctuations dissipated, revealing the figures of Alpha and Delta. They both stood still and it was unclear who would win or lose.
Ahhhh!
(Whatever, I lost!)
Beta's face was filled with excitement, and he had even imagined the scene of Alpha falling to the ground in his mind.
"Delta is so strong, it should be Delta that wins, right?"
Click, click.
(But Gamma feels that Delta's energy value is a little more unstable.)
Snoring!
(Snap! This ice cream is delicious!)
"Stop arguing and wait and see the result."
Under the expectant eyes of Bai Qi and the four pets, the battle between Alpha and Delta was finally decided.
Bloopers.
(I still can’t beat you, Alpha.)
Delta looked at the black sword mark on his dragon arm. The time candle flickered in his left eye, and the wound began to heal, but it was obviously much slower than before.
The power of death is indeed special. If Alpha hadn't deflected the sword's edge in the end, he probably wouldn't even have the chance to recover.
Crunch.
(When you upgrade to Time Traveler, I will be no match for you.)
Alpha shook his head, walked to Delta, and took the initiative to absorb the remaining death force from the wound. Delta's injuries recovered quickly.
Seeing the two pets like this, Bai Qi nodded with satisfaction.
The original intention of the team competition is to enhance the competitive awareness of the pets, but if it destroys the relationship between each other, the gain will outweigh the loss.
But now it seems that the effect is good.
"It seems that I don't need to say more about the result?"
Delta nodded, and the other pets had the same expression, only Beta looked unhappy.
Ahhhh!
(Damn it, Stinky Bones won again!)
"If you're not convinced, go and win the fight yourself next time. Complaining is useless."
Jerry looked at Alpha, who was emitting a powerful aura, and his eyes became more determined.
More, he needs more power...
"Okay, everyone just needs to work harder in the future."
Bai Qi grinned and said, "How about we restart the internal competition in the future? Playing a game occasionally can help you have a clearer understanding of your own strengths. How about that?"
Ahhhhh?
(Restart the internal war? I refuse!)
Click, click, click…
(Master, the internal battle is too tiring, and I am prone to hunger...)
Snoring?
(Hungry? Can the team battle dolls be eaten?)
"Chief, I have always been the weakest, so there is no need for us to compete, right?"
Seeing the four pets' bad looks, the veins on Bai Qi's forehead suddenly popped up, and he said, "Okay, then there's no need for an internal battle."
"Let's change it to an elimination tournament. Whoever reaches level six first will be deprived of his or her hobby for a month. No, let's say three months."
Ahhhh!
(Human, aren’t you afraid that others will sue you for dog abuse if you do this!)
"You are a wolf, not a dog~"
"Chief, how about we shorten the punishment?"
"Okay, five months then."
"Chief, I was wrong."
Snoring?
(Depriving me of my hobbies? Do you mean not letting me eat ice cream?)
"Yes, how about giving it a try?"
Snoring!
(But I’m a newbie, I don’t have anyone to take care of me!)
"Yes, I will reduce your punishment by one month. By the way, Gamma, what are you going to do?"
Click, click.
(Gama went to eat three months' worth of food first.)
Seeing his pets like this, Bai Qi felt a little helpless.
They've been left alone for too long and have become slack, but a few more team battles should be enough.
At least, these guys' words and actions are somewhat inconsistent.
Bai Qi looked at the pets who were complaining and exercising silently, smiled and said, "Take a break, and then we will go back to the Super God Evolution Research Institute."
…
Super God Evolution Research Institute.
Bai Qi looked at Nicholas, whose arms were so busy that they left afterimages, and felt a little confused.
"Zhuge Chen, is the demand gap for Emerald Dream so huge?"
Zhuge Chen shrugged and said, "After you left, Emerald Dream started its first public beta test, and the results were explosive. Then my dad and the others discussed it and started the public beta test a week later, and then it became like this."
"All right……"
Bai Qi sighed when he heard this. No wonder it took Chongcao so much time to contact Nicholas. It turned out that this guy was working overtime.
"By the way, where's Granny Fan?"
Bai Qi looked around but did not see Grandma Fan.
"Granny Fan is in the test area outside, trying out the new gaming pod. However, I suggest you not disturb her."
Zhuge Chen smiled bitterly. According to Bai Qi, this Granny Fan has lived for who knows how many years. Theoretically, she should be the type who has seen through the world, but it turns out that she is still a severe internet addict.
Previously, a staff member wanted to replace the parts of the game cabin and woke up Grandma Fan. She was frightened by Long Wei and wanted to run away whenever she saw a woman.
"All right."
Bai Qi said: "By the way, what's the situation with that game cabin?"
"After Emerald Dream became popular, it attracted many professional gaming teams to move in and put forward many suggestions, one of which was this gaming warehouse."
Zhuge Chen explained: "The Emerald Dream is transmitted through dreaming, but dreams always have depths. This game cabin is used to assist sleep and relax the body."
"I've tried it, and the gaming cabin experience is indeed better than the gaming helmet."
"I see."
Bai Qi suddenly realized what was going on. He had been thinking about how to transfer human consciousness to the Emerald Dream through dreaming, but he had not considered this point.
Sure enough, during this period, it still requires a professional team to complete the task perfectly.
"By the way, wouldn't the price of the game cabin be very expensive?"
"That's right. Compared to the Emerald Helmet, the price of the game cabin is more than ten times more expensive, and it's just the basic module. It's basically aimed at the middle and upper classes."
“So expensive?”
Bai Qi was stunned when he heard this. Setting the price so high, wouldn’t it affect the sales?
Zhuge Chen suddenly showed a smile that only a profiteer would have, and said, "The Jade Helmet is affordable for most people, and they don't have the time to pursue the depth of sleep. Those who have such thoughts are those who are not short of money. If the price is too low, people will think the quality is not good."
"Once the technology of the game warehouse is complete, we will continue to launch various additional modules and upgrade them continuously. They are not short of money anyway, don't you think?"
Looking at Zhuge Chen like this, Bai Qi silently gave him a thumbs up.
When it comes to research, Zhuge Chen is not as good as him.
When it comes to making money, ten of him are not as good as Zhuge Chen!
"However, the consumption rate of the Mingling Gold has also become a bit faster. The transaction volume agreed upon before may not be enough."
Zhuge Chen sighed and said, "Professor Chu and his team have already started researching alternative metals, but it will be difficult to produce ."
“I see. This is indeed a problem.”
Bai Qi nodded slightly. The effect of Mingling Gold in transmitting mental power was absolutely the best in the world. Even Ether Gold was a little bit inferior in this respect.
It is very difficult to replace Mingling Gold with raw metal, so we can only make alloys.
"Speaking of which, the Xia Group is quite good at alloy manufacturing. Why don't you try it there?"
"Dad has already gone to negotiate, and the Xia Group is willing to provide their products, but the test results were not good, so we still have to rely on ourselves."
Zhuge Chen shrugged and said with a smile: "However, the Xia Group seems to understand that this is a very profitable business. It is said that they have invested a lot of manpower and resources in the development of this alloy."
"Sure enough, businessmen's sense of smell is not bad."
Bai Qi smiled. Ever since he took over the production rights of the Spirit Control Balls, even if Bai Qi did not give them the subsequent special balls, the Xia Group had already made a fortune.
If they can really develop an alloy to replace Mingling Gold first and incorporate it into the Emerald Dream plan, all the costs invested before will be recovered.
The Xia Group can still figure out this account.
"But that's all for the future. For now, we still have to rely on the Minglingjin provided by the Britta family. Dad has already made an appointment with the Britta family to sign a supplementary contract."
As he spoke, Zhuge Chen looked at Bai Qi and said, "It just so happens that you are back too. You may have to go with us. After all, without your signature, this contract cannot be fully effective."
"I have to go too? But I have to go to Xingji Academy for classes in a few days."
Bai Qi scratched his head, somewhat reluctantly.
"Don't worry, Dad will leave this afternoon and will arrive the day after tomorrow if everything goes well. He will come back directly after signing. You still have a chance to rest for two days to prepare for the class."
Zhuge Chen patted Bai Qi on the shoulder and smiled.
"Why do I feel like you and Uncle Zhuge have planned this long ago?"
Bai Qi looked at Zhuge Chen suspiciously, but could only agree silently.
He also wanted to make some money from the Emerald Dream. Although it was a bit troublesome, he had no choice but to go.
"By the way, are there any empty gaming cabins? I want to try it out too."
Bai Qi rubbed his hands together, obviously curious.
In my previous life, I was looking forward to the release of a game cabin, a kind of black technology that only exists in movies, TV and animation. Now that I have the chance, of course I have to try it.
"There are still quite a few vacancies in the test area. I'll take you there."
Zhuge Chen brought Bai Qi to the test area, then opened a game cabin and said, "The game cabins are all fully automatic, you just lie down in it."
"clear."
Bai Qi nodded, then lay down in the game cabin and fell into a deep sleep.
The next moment, Bai Qi arrived in the Emerald Dream.
"Wow, it's so lively."
As soon as Bai Qi entered, he was startled by the crowd around him.
Compared to the quiet world of the past, the Emerald Dream is undoubtedly much more lively now.
However, the chaos that Bai Qi had expected did not occur.
Bai Qi looked up and saw a group of obviously organized players forming a sightseeing adventure group. This should be the studio that Zhuge Chen mentioned.
However, what made Bai Qi even more curious was that a group of men wearing cyan and gold uniforms and with identical faces were patiently explaining the rules of the Emerald Dream and recommending various areas worth visiting.
"Beginner's guide NPC? Even such a thing has been researched?"
Bai Qi looked surprised, obviously shocked by the research progress of Professor Dong and his team.
Although they told the public that Emerald Dream was a game, Bai Qi was very clear that it was a scam. So, did these people really create NPCs?
