The little angel really lived up to Fang Zheng's trust and easily completed the entire system in just one day.
"So... that's it?"
Fang Zheng stretched out his hand, looked at the pattern floating in front of him and asked, while Nymph nodded.
"Yes, Master. According to your request, I have improved the entire system... As of now, it basically meets your requirements."
"Well, it's really good."
Looking at the pattern in front of him, Fang Zheng nodded with satisfaction. The little angel did not create anything special. Instead, she simply packaged the program into software and integrated it into the personal terminal of Tiandao Palace. Anyone can download it. As for the operating system inside the software, the little angel also followed what Fang Zheng said and referred to the system of the Four Sacred Weapons.
The Four Sacred Weapons can acquire corresponding special skills after absorbing any object, and Nymph has improved it a bit, changing it to acquire corresponding special skills after signing a contract with the target. In other words, if Fang Zheng finds a rabbit to sign a contract, then the skills of the rabbit itself and the skills that can be selected after upgrading will appear on the skill tree - of course, these skills are question marks before the rabbit's level is not high enough and cannot be seen.
According to Nymph, she had also mastered the specialization that Fang Zheng mentioned. She still directly copied the upgrade system from the Four Saints. Basically, ordinary small animals were upgraded to level 40 at the maximum. Only after using the reincarnation crystal could they upgrade to level 2 or 3. According to the little angel, the so-called reincarnation crystal was actually a limited edition divine power catalyzing mutation tool. To put it simply, it injected about one in tens of millions of divine power into the animal's body, and then it would see what it could "evolve" into.
Although this would consume Fang Zheng's divine power, he didn't care. If he could really become the God of Games, it would be much easier to recycle divine power. As the saying goes, the wool comes from the sheep, so this little investment in the early stage is nothing. If Nymph hadn't said that these animals' bodies couldn't withstand a large amount of divine power, Fang Zheng would have wanted to add more.
However, after Nymph suggested whether to add the familiar incarnation system of Nanoha's world to this "game", Fang Zheng thought about it for a long time and finally shook his head.
"Forget it, I won't add this."
"Why, Master? Wouldn't it be more popular if it were personified?"
After hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Nymph asked in confusion. Although she was not very good at making games, she had been with Fang Zheng for a long time and had heard a lot of things from him. For example, Fang Zheng had told Nymph more than once that making anthropomorphic characters in mobile games was the easiest, most convenient and most popular. If you made anthropomorphic battleships, fighter planes, tanks and guns, you could make money in a matter of minutes.
If all else fails, you can also add some flowers and plants, rice and wheat, swords and crossbows... You know, even humanized cockroaches are watched by people.
If it is aimed at females, then a bunch of handsome guys will be personified; if it is aimed at otakus, then a bunch of cute girls will be personified. The next step is to divide the probability according to the rarity, and then spend money... Of course, this is the point.
Because of this, when Nymph heard that Fang Zheng was going to make a game about small animals, she immediately thought of this. And in her opinion, if it could be anthropomorphized, it would obviously be a very good selling point.
"That's a game, but this is reality. You can mess around in the game, but not in reality."
Fang Zheng also sighed helplessly. To be honest, Nymph's opinion was good, and Fang Zheng was also very tempted. Fortunately, in addition to being a game planner, he was also the ruler of Tiandao Palace. In addition to considering issues from the game level, he also needed to consider other issues.
For example, if these animals are anthropomorphized, should they be given human rights?
It's like raising a pet. You can raise a cat or a dog, but you can't raise a person. The same is true for these animals. After they become human, they will definitely have similar thoughts and ideas to humans. What should we do then? Should we continue to raise them? What if they don't want us to?
Even if the law stipulates that these anthropomorphic animals are not real humans, but are considered servants, it is useless. Isn't this the root cause of the conflict between the Liars and humans in the Shield Hero world? Fang Zheng doesn't want this to happen again in his own world.
This is just like cloning, it's all self-inflicted. In fact, most of the Hollywood blockbusters about cloning are stupid. Although these movies basically tell the threat of clones to humans, in Fang Zheng's opinion, these are all groundless worries.
For example, there are movies that depict humans using clones as slaves to work. Fang Zheng sneers at this. Unless the humans in that world follow the same technology tree as the Zerg, the labor efficiency of humans can never be compared to that of machines. Moreover, compared to mechanized production that does not eat or drink and produces 24 hours a day, clones also need to eat, drink, sleep, and defecate. Even if you use them like serfs before liberation, they will be exhausted and their efficiency will not be as good as that of fully mechanized ones. They will also consume more food, and if they die, you will have to worry about plague and public condemnation. It can be said that there are no advantages, but a lot of disadvantages. Why bother?
There are also movies that describe humans creating clones for spare organs, which is even more ridiculous. Cloning organs is much easier than cloning humans themselves, and there is no moral risk. On the other hand, even if you clone a spare human, unless you keep him in a nutrition chamber like in The Matrix, you can never guarantee that he will not die or escape due to an accident. At that time, won't you lose all your money?
As for raising them like pigs? Would the organs of the animals be healthy?
I’m afraid it’s all fatty liver, hypertension and diabetes.
So movies are all artistic creations. It’s okay to watch them, but taking them seriously is another matter entirely.
If there were species that could transform into humans in the new world, Fang Zheng might even communicate with them. But now the world is full of animals, and Fang Zheng certainly wouldn't ask for trouble by imitating the villains in the movies and creating a bunch of trouble... wouldn't he have to clean up the mess himself in the end?
In short, creatures that have not reached a certain level of intelligence are easy to deal with, and they may not even have the concept of "slavery", so it is easy to get along with them. But on the other hand, once higher intelligence appears, there will be more or less conflicts and problems, such as the division of power, social status and hierarchy... These are troubles that make people feel headache just thinking about them.
So Fang Zheng considered it again and again, and finally rejected Nymph's proposal. Although in Nanoha's magic world, familiars seemed to have their own set of management rules, Fang Zheng was not sure whether that set of rules could be applied. The best way was to nip the danger in the bud - it was best not to touch it directly.
Another reason why Fang Zheng rejected this proposal was... it would not be good for the ideological education of children.
That's right, if your pet can become a human, who would want to communicate with others? Look at Precia, who is the best example. Since Alicia's accidental death, she has been staying at home, working hard to revive her daughter. She doesn't go out to buy groceries or cook, and she is only thinking about reviving Alicia. In the end, she became obsessed.
Why? Isn’t it because she has two servants who clean, wash and cook for her?
If she had nothing, Precia wouldn't have to stay in the house all day and night and dwell on her own problems. Maybe she could have gone out and made some friends, had a wonderful encounter or something, and maybe she wouldn't have ended up in this state.
So, this kind of personification is not good. The two-dimensional paper people have already cultivated a lot of otakus. If there comes a group of pet girls who work hard every day to wash clothes and cook for you, I'm afraid no one will go out!
Therefore, whether from the social level or the comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor, anthropomorphism is the most detrimental to maximizing Fangzheng’s interests.
After all, everyone can have fun when they take their own pets out, but how can they have fun when they take their pet mother out?
Other than that, the little angel did pretty well. Of course, there were still some problems. The only problem was...
“Why is it blue?”
Looking at the badge in front of him, Fang Zheng couldn't help but complain. The pattern of the badge was pretty, but the color always reminded Fang Zheng of the health certification stamps on beef, mutton, and pork...
"Change it to something prettier, um, not so deep, more lively, more beautiful, preferably one that can give people a more sacred feeling... You decide for yourself. Well, don't rush to release it after you're done, find some people to do the internal test and see how it goes..."
Although Fang Zheng wanted to complete the task immediately, he still held back and asked Nymph to follow the steps. After all, this was not an ordinary game, but a game that would change the world, so he had to think twice before launching it to the market after everything was completed.
Of course, Fang Zheng also planned to get some internal beta test quotas to satisfy the little girls' cravings. After all, the little girls had long been complaining about not having a pet. There were even some little girls who were originally in the Zerg due to physical reasons, and they chose to keep Zerglings, Hydralisks, and Ultralisks as their pets...
Of course, this kind of aesthetic school is still a minority.
"I understand, Master. Then one last question. What would you like to name this game?"
"Name... um...name..."
Hearing this, Fang Zheng also frowned.
Pokémon? Digimon? World of Warcraft?
That’s right!
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Let's call it Digital Elf!"
