Chapter 3 The Beginning of Development

At the same time, Jian Shiyuan was also browsing the player forum in another world.

In fact, he created this forum.

In the so-called gaming company, he was the only living person from beginning to end.

He holds multiple positions, including publicity, planning, and forum administrator.

I don’t know if it was because Jian Shiyuan used himself as a guide and introduced too much heavenly thunder, causing the system to be overcharged and exploded inside. Now it has no self-awareness and has completely become a useless tool.

Just like the Siri in your phone, it can chat with you normally, but if you really treat it as a living person, it will suddenly say strange things.

For example:

You say, “I really want to have a good sleep.”

It will say seriously: "Please cherish your life, life is so beautiful. Psychological consultation phone number xxxx"

If the system is allowed to create player forums and edit promotional videos, Jian Shiyuan will probably never see a film with normal logic in his lifetime.

However, there is nothing wrong with this. Compared to a system with self-awareness, Jian Shiyuan wants a pure tool.

At least, tools won't have any other thoughts, let alone betray him.

Jian Shiyuan ran his finger over the comments in the promotional video, propped up his chin, and looked at the flattery below.

Players seem to have a unified opinion about him.

—A strong, just, and leader worth following.

Jian Shiyuan's lips curled up. This was a good start.

The materials for the promotional video were taken from his memories, all of which were real events. However, based on the facts, Jian Shiyuan slightly used the "art of editing".

When slaying a group of monsters outside the city, he deleted the clip where he used formations and talismans to lure the enemy into an ambush and force them to kill each other. He also deleted the scene where he skinned and boned the monsters' corpses and sorted them into storage bags. These were not scandals that needed to be covered up, but they were inconsistent with the character he wanted to create.

He wanted to create an image of a leader who was absolutely upright and kind.

After all, only kind and lawful NPCs would regard personal honor as a reward, and only players who admired NPCs would willingly accept "non-tangible" rewards.

Jian Shiyuan knows the nature of players very well, and follows their example.

If he is both good and evil, the players will definitely be more unscrupulous. Jian Shiyuan does not want to have a group of unmanageable "Fourth Disasters".

Although players enter the world of immortal cultivation through him, they are living people with independent thinking ability. Jian Shiyuan cannot restrict their behavior at all times, and they will not be happy to be monitored.

Rather than leaving big loopholes, it is better to block their way with character setting from the beginning.

Jian Shiyuan is a righteous leader. Fighting demons and defending justice is a spontaneous act and he does not seek rewards.

As his disciple, I naturally cannot ask for more rewards.

In this way, Jian Shiyuan does not have to spend money to launch war missions for players. Instead, he can regard the mission as a "trial of the brave". The justice and excitement of the mission itself are enough to make players excited and move forward courageously.

In the future, if someone invites Jian Shiyuan to "hire players", he can even receive the remuneration directly, and the process of completing the task will be counted as a reward to the players, thus realizing the beautiful wish of "you work and I make money".

It can be said to be "profitable without any investment" and "procedural justice".

Thinking of this, Jian Shiyuan's smile deepened a little.

He is the 'planner' of the world of immortals and demons. Players may make money in this game, but he will definitely make more.

"Master, the body is ready, you can issue the game beta test quota."

The metallic spherical system flashed red light and rotated rapidly within the system space.

With a "swish", one hundred human bodies appeared in the space.

Jian Shiyuan walked in the bare system space, looking at the creation in front of him.

The body created by the system has no facial features, no hair, no sexual characteristics, and its skin is so pale that one can even see the blue blood vessels under the skin.

They stretched out their limbs stiffly in the shape of a "big" character, like melted wax figures, barely able to resemble a human being.

Jian Shiyuan didn't feel scared, instead he touched their skin with great interest.

It is a very magical creation. It has no heartbeat, but its body is warm. I don’t know what maintains its temperature, making it between "death" and "alive".

"You can inject spiritual energy into them and control them."

Jian Shiyuan casually grabbed an arm and felt the energy fluctuations within it.

Talismans flew out of his sleeves and hung above his head.

Jian Shiyuan's movements were extremely fast and smooth. His slender fingers followed the meridians of the human body, touched the Tiantu point, and slid all the way down. Talismans spontaneously combusted with his movements. The bright flames made his eyes look particularly gentle. He smiled and curved his lips, and when the last talisman burned out, he just finished his movements.

The peak of warrior.

The strongest state a human can reach before embarking on spiritual practice.

Jian Shiyuan continued to smile. His smile was his best disguise. Whenever he thought of something interesting, he would raise the corners of his mouth. No matter how turbulent his heart was, the smile on his face remained unchanged.

He stroked the top of the physical body's head, and the texture of the scalp and arm were the same. He hooked the back of the head with his index finger, and Jian Shiyuan slowly slapped in a trace of spiritual power.

It's like the spring flowers blooming and the ice on the rivers melting.

All the cells in the body in front of him trembled, and facial features, hair, and nails quickly emerged. In just a moment, it had turned into the appearance of Jian Shiyuan.

Jian Shiyuan looked down at him as if looking in a mirror. From the hair to the expression, he was exactly the same as herself.

After watching silently for a while, Jian Shiyuan suddenly drew out his spiritual power, and the 'self' in front of him quickly melted back to his original appearance.

Jian Shiyuan repeated this several times. The body in front of him was extremely flexible. It only needed a little spiritual power to change its appearance. When the spiritual power was withdrawn, it would return to a waxy state.

Smart, realistic, and low energy consumption.

Jian Shiyuan has a new understanding of the system.

Not only can it ignore the boundaries of space and time, drag the consciousness of players from other worlds into the world of immortal cultivation and provide players with game cabins, but it can also use the stored energy to create a body that is only controlled by Jian Shiyuan. This creation transcends the limitations of time, space and life, and has long been out of the category of objects, and can be called a divine artifact.

Who created it?

Is it the existence that dragged him into the world of immortal cultivation?

Why does it set tasks for itself?

These missions were undoubtedly helping him become stronger, but if they wanted to cultivate a powerful host, why did they betray him in the first place? Doesn't this contradict its original intention?

Jian Shiyuan had many questions in his mind, but he also knew that the damaged system could not answer these questions.

No matter how many questions he asked, he would only get the answer "The program is disordered and cannot be answered."

He could only follow the requirements step by step and complete the system's tasks in order to obtain more information and then find out the truth.

Jian Shiyuan has never been a timid person.

He was fully aware that the system was risky, but he couldn't possibly put such a sacred artifact aside and let it gather dust.

Life is but a gamble——

Now, the first task is to summon players and establish a sect.

Looking at the backend statistics showing over a million applications for internal testing, Jian Shiyuan said slowly, "According to the ratio I set earlier, we will select internal testing players from top talents in various industries."

Since it concerns the construction of the sect, the first batch of players must be selected from the best.

Song Mu posted all night and didn't sleep well at all. He was still groggy when his agent woke him up in the morning, and his toothbrush almost got stuck in his nostrils.

"How many times have I told you not to stay up late? Look at those two circles on your face. Even a panda would call you daddy if they saw you."

"I've arranged a fitness trainer for you. Your next film will involve half-naked scenes, so you better be prepared. Don't let trolls take screenshots of your pictures. If they spread online, it will severely damage your image!"

Song Mu washed his face while listening to his agent's nagging.

He has become accustomed to the opponent's demonic sound torture, and has now evolved to the point of being invulnerable to swords and guns, and it goes in one ear and out the other.

“And don’t buy any nonsense online!”

"I tolerated your buying big plastic swords and Longquan kitchen knives before, but why are you buying coffins now? The guard said that when he opened the door early this morning, your package was quietly leaning against the wall. It nearly gave him a heart attack. I signed for the package and brought it back to you."

"Yeah, I get it. I'll be more careful next time. What was that? What did you say I bought?"

"A coffin! It's so long and wide, and weighs at least thirty or forty kilograms. Carrying it here nearly killed me. I've put it in the living room for you."

"I didn't buy a coffin—are you mistaken?"

The agent's face flushed with anger as he grabbed him and pushed him into the living room. "You still don't admit it? The recipient, Mr. Song Mu, who else could it be but you?"

“But I really didn’t buy it.”

Before he finished speaking, seeing the exquisite and elegant packaging of the courier, Song Mu suddenly jumped up, flew over, hugged the courier box and kissed it madly, "It's mine, hahahaha, I won the internal test quota."

As they kissed, they used their hands and feet to unwrap the package. "Fairy Demon World Game Cabin! I really am the chosen one! Quick, take pictures and post them online. I want to be the first European emperor on this forum and dazzle those Africans."

Seeing his frantic look, his agent frowned in disdain, "Didn't the Immortal Demon World just release its trailer yesterday? And the game pod was delivered today?"

"It'll be quick, this game is awesome!"

She felt something was wrong, but the thought dissipated as soon as it came to her mind.

"It's really impressive. It must have cost a lot to deliver such a large package, right? No wonder the delivery guy refused to deliver it to our door and left it behind the guardhouse."

Song Mu struck a pose and took 18 crazy consecutive shots, caressing the game cabin while taking the shots, making it scream "my darling".

But when he finished editing the picture and opened the forum, he found that a lucky person had already posted a photo of his game cabinet.

Hot [One hundred red envelopes are included. Let's share the joy of winning the internal test spot with everyone!]

When you click on the post, you will see that the poster has modestly posted six pictures, clearly and completely showing the internal and external structure of the game cabin.

Confidence Interval Tomb: Overall values ​​(length 190cm, width 72cm, height 69cm, mass 274kg, hardness R120, tensile strength 178MPa), white, gold standard color, rectangular. Local values: 3D Bionic Ergonomic Pillow (length 50cm) colors R70, G67, B235, 3D Bionic Ergonomic Lumbar Pad (length 60cm) colors R59, G57, B175.

[Confidence Interval Tomb: Contains RGB multi-color lights (48 pieces) with a rated power of 120W. The rubber shockproofing has not been tested yet. If anyone is interested, please add it.]

After seeing this post, Song Mu was completely dumbfounded.

We are both beta testers, so why can he only edit pictures while others have already calculated the power?

Post a 666

This gaming company is really rich, even developing new materials for a gaming cabin. I really want them to sponsor my lab.]

The topic successfully shifted to the wealth of gaming companies, with beta testers and cloud players agreeing.

Song Mu felt that something was wrong, but after thinking about it, he couldn't figure out what was wrong.

[Egg Fried Egg: That's incredibly rich! I'm in a corner of town where the road is closed due to construction, and all other express delivery services have stopped, but the game company's delivery is super fast.

Latest Comment [Swamp Wizard: I don’t know what kind of novice village the planner has planned for us]

After sorting out the players' feedback on receiving the goods, planner Jian Shiyuan rubbed his eyebrows, feeling speechless.

"System, is this the vague concept summoning you mentioned?"

When promoting the game, the system had suggested that he use the highest-scale summoning ritual.

It said that only the highest summoning would not arouse suspicion. Jian Shiyuan was skeptical before publishing the advertisement, and always felt that it was unreliable. Would such a game company with no registered address and no contact information really not be investigated and dealt with by the relevant departments?

Blue Star has very strict control over online games and will not allow games without version numbers or registration to be released to the world.

The system responded, "Master, please rest assured that all irrationalities will be avoided by thinking."

He didn't understand it at the time, but now after reading the players' posts, he understands.

A normal person would call the police directly if they saw a game cabinet appear quietly in their home, instead of lamenting how rich the game company is!

Also, upon discovering that the game cabin was made of undocumented materials, your first reaction was to ask for sponsorship from the company?

"Master, isn't this good? No one will notice that we are abnormal."

Jian Shiyuan did not answer, but clenched his drooping fingers into the air.

The system space received the command, rotating, squeezing, and gathering, turning into a pool of colorful sticky matter that melted into Jian Shiyuan's body. His long hair rose up and then slowly fell down with a hint of coolness.

It is now late at night in the Ice State, there is no moon, and it is pitch black all around.

Jian Shiyuan walked in the wind and snow, with countless bright red Dao patterns climbing up his body.

His eyes sparkled due to the fluctuations of power.

He moved extremely quickly. The snow that fell on his hair was blown away by the internal energy around him before it could melt. There was only a streak of light. Jian Shiyuan clapped his hands, and a cold-repelling formation that blocked the wind and snow appeared. In that moment, Jian Shiyuan cast a few more talismans, circled the formation, and then - an orange-red flame evaporated into a thin mist.

Jian Shiyuan stood in the wind and snow. The strong blizzard blew his hair into disarray, and the biting cold frosted his temples, but his expression did not change.

The next second, the hidden magic circle suddenly burst into the sky, and with an unstoppable force, it dispersed the nearby wind and snow. Where the red light covered, the ice and snow melted, turned into water and evaporated into mist, and a giant circle with a radius of ten meters was revealed.

This will be the player's novice village.

Jian Shiyuan used a formation to melt the snow and circled this piece of land as his home.

Disciples, start from here, from this desolate place of ice and snow, and help him open up the territory belonging to the Ningwu Sect.
