A familiar white light lit up, and a voice said, "Congratulations to player Qianyue for completing the sixth round of challenges."
The white light became brighter, and Qianyue returned to the pure white space again.
She was thinking about how to distribute the points she would get after this round, when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a different color in her peripheral vision.
Snowy night, thatched hut...
Isn't this the first copy?
Such a scene emerged silently in the empty space. Qianyue subconsciously took two steps back, only to see the scene wrapping around her like a ribbon.
Soon, dinosaurs, islands, ruins, and deserts also appeared. Several copies of the scene were connected together, and eventually formed a circle that surrounded Qianyue in the middle. No matter where she looked, her vision was always filled with scenes she had experienced before.
"What's going on?"
When Qianyue was confused, a line of white words appeared in front of her eyes. At the same time, the system's voice sounded in her ears:
“This is a compilation of player performance in all dungeons so far.”
Qianyue:?
Why are you doing this for no reason?
Qianyue intuitively felt that something big was about to happen, and her heart, which had just relaxed, was lifted up again.
The next second, she heard the system announce:
“Thank you players for your strong support and love for this game.”
"We regretfully inform you that due to a lack of remaining players, this round of closed beta testing has officially concluded, and your journey will end here."
Qianyue was stunned. What does that mean? Is this the end?
"Is there no seventh copy?" she asked without thinking.
System: "This round of internal testing has ended. There will not be a seventh round of challenges."
The mechanical sound caused Qianyue to fall into a rare silence.
However, the system did not pause, it continued to read:
System: "This round of internal testing is a deleted data internal testing. However, as compensation, all remaining supplies in the backpacks of players who have completed the internal testing will be converted into the corresponding in-game currency."
"The game will officially launch in two months. Please wait patiently for the official website to notify you of the specific launch date. At that time, the funds will be automatically deposited into the registered account with the same identity information, without any player intervention. Ten Day Plan looks forward to your return."
"At the same time, the live broadcast event has ended. The list of winners will be announced in three working days. If players have any questions, please contact customer service."
"The reading is complete."
The system paused. "A brief separation prepares for a better reunion. To avoid prolonged reminiscences that would overly disturb players' emotions, the game will shut down in thirty seconds. You can enjoy the final thirty seconds of reliving the glory of the past through the animation."
"Countdown, twenty-nine, twenty-eight..."
Qianyue was feeling a little sad at first, but when she heard the countdown, she couldn't help but burst out laughing, and the slight emotion that had gathered in her heart was swept away.
“This is really…”
Qianyue took a deep breath.
never mind.
Just like the system said, a brief separation is for a better reunion. Although the news of the end of the internal test was a bit sudden, perhaps it was just right to stop here.
If they knew that this was the last dungeon before entering the game, most people's mood and behavior would probably be different from usual.
Either the pressure is doubled, or people are spending lavishly without fear...
Instead of letting them have that mentality from the beginning, it is better to let them know nothing and go through this game with all their strength as usual.
Anyway, the game will be officially launched in two months, so there is really no need to be sad now.
It took Qianyue a few seconds to compose herself, and in the remaining time she carefully watched all the clips of the past few copies.
A few seconds before the countdown ended, the image of the first copy floated before her eyes.
Qianyue was slightly startled, and suddenly remembered the situation when she first entered the dungeon. Then she couldn't help but laugh at herself.
At that time, she certainly couldn't have imagined that she would end up pouring such deep feelings into this game, and that she would even meet someone who shared the same feelings...
Ahem, although I haven’t caught up with her yet.
But, no matter what—
"Thank you."
One second before the countdown ended, Qianyue whispered in her heart.
The world returned to darkness, just as it had been at the beginning.
The internal test of "Ten Day Plan" has ended, and many players and viewers are wailing together.
Players are crying out that they didn’t have enough fun playing the game, and the audience is crying out that they have to wait two months for the official launch!
It was okay before there was a live broadcast. Everyone didn’t know the specific content of the game and could still deceive themselves.
Later, live streaming came out, which piqued people’s interest. However, after only two levels were passed, the live streaming was gone again.
How can anyone bear this?!
Under the farewell Weibo post of "Ten Day Plan", many people commented:
"Qingfeng is slandering us: You must come out and give us an explanation about this matter. @十日计划I am the official customer service representative."
"Xiao Ge: You must come out and give us an explanation about this matter. @十日计划I am the official customer service representative."
"Xiji: About...sh*t, I thought you were tagging some scumbag, hahaha."
"Hou Li: After keeping everyone in suspense, he vanished without a trace. What a scumbag, isn't he? (dog head). Also, young lady, you're ruining the formation."
…
Perhaps because there is strength in numbers, the customer service representative who was trying to play dead on hold finally had to come out and say:
"Thank you all for your support! The customer service representative is flattered! The guys in the technical department are already working overtime to get the game online as soon as possible! Please don't worry, everyone. After discussion at the top management, we've decided to continue live streaming during our trip to Asteroid 143 in the Tianma Galaxy. Five live streamers will be accompanying us, and the specific list will be announced on the official website in two days..."
At the same time, another tag about environmental protection was quietly brought to the hot search.
The reason was that after watching the live broadcast of the "Last Pure Land" copy, someone felt that the copy was too difficult, so he planned to look through history books to see if there were any survival methods that could be used as a reference. As a result, the more he read, the more frightened he became.
"Eating 300 lychees a day will give you a sore throat: When I first watched the livestream, I didn't think anything of it, thinking the game was deliberately exaggerating. But after getting to know it more carefully, I realized that what's shown in the game is just a drop in the ocean, and that reality is far more cruel than games."
"Buye-chan~: Was the dungeon cruel? Cruel. Was the scene heroic? Heroic. Is something like this far away from us? It seems very far away, but in fact, it can happen at any time. And the source of all this may actually be just because someone used an extra plastic bag one day."
"Chu: This dungeon is based on Earth, once the blue planet. Players can't go beyond Earth, so many people who only watch regular players' live streams might not know that, in fact, besides Earth, people on other planets have also been affected. It can even be said to be retribution."
"Tianwen: Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered that there was actually a random live broadcast room that played some footage of the evacuation on the starship. Someone suddenly fell ill when leaving the port..."
"Popeye's can of spinach: Actually, this is what happened in real history. The plague spread to various parts of the universe via evacuated starships, ultimately exacerbating the outbreak of the uprising."
"Winter Fish: But in the final analysis, if those people back then hadn't done those absurd things, those innocent casualties could have been avoided..."
The topic is getting more and more popular, and more and more people are joining in.
"Brother: You're all talking about the last dungeon. Actually, I want to say that as someone who grew up on a desert planet, the fifth dungeon is the one I can relate to the most. When I was a child, my family didn't actually live in the desert, but later, desertification became more and more serious, so we had to move."
"Autumn Cold Dangxinghe: I second the motion. Without grass, we can't raise cattle and sheep, so we have to develop tourism. However, the low-quality behavior of tourists has exacerbated desertification, ultimately creating a vicious cycle. For tourists, the desert is a breathtakingly beautiful landscape, but for us, it is a nightmare that keeps us awake at night..."
"Tanmu Zhiya: Environmental protection is a topic that's been talked about so much. But taking travel as an example, it's not that people don't know the importance of environmental protection, but they just don't realize how important even the smallest actions they take can be."
"Lalulu: Oh, oh, stop talking, stop talking. I'll never curse a paper straw again when I drink milk tea. I'll buy a steel pipe and recycle it. The energy saved can be used to plant more trees in Ant Forest."
"Please sign for your delivery: The island residents also have something to say. Due to the greenhouse effect caused by various emissions, the average temperature of our planet has been rising, and so has the sea level. In the past fifty years, at least two countries have been submerged. If this continues..."
"Changmenke: You're getting warmer, we're getting colder. A lot of people think snowstorms are common when they first play their first dungeon, but that's not the case. Our planet's temperature has been out of balance for nearly a hundred years. Every now and then, experts come out and say we might soon enter an ice age. Kids, be scared to death, okay..."
"Jimo Weiming: And more..."
As time went by, the popularity of the game's internal testing gradually subsided, but the environmental reflections triggered by the game attracted more people's attention.
More and more people have come forward to express their views on the environment, and more and more people have taken this opportunity to begin to reflect. Major environmental protection organizations have quickly followed suit, issuing appeals and calls, and even the officials have stepped in and contacted Qi Feng.
…
Twelve o'clock noon, Main Star City Park.
The world's largest open-air screen lit up on time, and countless passers-by stopped to watch. Soon there was a small commotion.
At the same time, in a high-end restaurant on a high-rise building opposite the screen, Qianyue chuckled and glanced at the man opposite who was pretending to be calm. Her gaze paused for a moment on the tip of his crimson ear, then she turned her head and looked out the window with the other diners.
On the big screen, the man was wearing a beige suit and calmly answering the host's questions one after another. His calm look made it almost impossible to take your eyes off him.
At the end of the interview, the host asked him if he had anything else to add.
Qi Feng in the picture was silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled softly.
The moment the camera moved forward, it was like the first melting of spring snow, and everyone's heart skipped a beat.
The man lowered his eyes slightly and said slowly:
"I believe that the purpose of games is to entertain, but it's more than just entertainment."
"Since its development, this game has been committed to recreating the survival challenges in various extreme scenarios through gameplay, but it is not our intention to stump players."
“We hope to convey something deeper through this, but what exactly is it…”
He paused, pointed to his heart, and his eyes looking at the camera suddenly became gentle.
“I believe you all already have your own answer in your heart.”
"Ten Day Plan, and I'm glad to meet you."
