"Demon Lord." Li Muge's forehead was covered in cold sweat. She suddenly sat up in bed. This was the hundredth time she had the same nightmare since she quit the holographic mobile game.
In her dreams, she always dreamed of the man who was the Demon Lord. His voice was gentle and warm. Standing in the mist, Li Muge couldn't see his face, but for some reason, she could only watch herself getting further and further away from him.
In her dream, she could only cry incessantly, as if she really didn't want to leave the man called the Demon Lord.
In the future, people will no longer be able to play online games solely through computers. With the development of technology, a holographic online game has emerged.
As the person in charge of this game, Li Muge was still worried when the game was about to be released to the public, so she chose to personally conduct user experience testing of the holographic mobile game.
However, for some unknown reason, Li Muge was ejected from the game and was quickly sent to a recovery ward to replenish his energy.
However, the game developed an unknown defect, and the original release date had to be postponed indefinitely. Her team insisted on confirming the safety of the game before allowing users to access the servers.
"What's wrong with me?" Li Muge lay on the mattress, thought for a moment, and then ordered the smart home assistant to turn on the bedside lamp.
Then he got up and went to his study, opened his laptop, and looked at all the NPC characters in the game.
She actually found a man whose identity was the Demon Lord. Li Muge looked at the Demon Lord on the computer and, for some reason, began to be curious about the character's ending.
She tapped a few keys on the keyboard.
The laptop automatically started playing the ending of the Demon Lord's story. In the game, the Demon Lord Yun Qi chose to give everything to send his beloved away for her safety, and finally his soul perished in the game.
As she watched, Li Muge's eyes welled up with tears. She felt confused, because she was not usually so emotional. Back then, when the whole dorm watched Korean dramas, all the girls cried their eyes out.
She didn't shed a single tear, which made her roommates jokingly call her heartless.
Why would she suddenly shed tears over an NPC in a game? Li Muge pressed her head. It seemed that the one who tied the knot had to untie it. To alleviate her habit of having nightmares, she should ask her employees to change the romantic storyline of Demon Lord Yun Qi to a better ending tomorrow.
"That'll do," Li Muge made himself a cup of coffee and began working on revising the ending plan for Demon Lord Yun Qi.
Strangely, she searched for a long time in this game but couldn't find the existence of Demon Lord Yun Qi's lover. If she hadn't been having nightmares every day, she would definitely have suspected that Demon Lord Yun Qi had fallen in love with thin air.
the next day.
Li Muge handed over the plan to change the ending of the Demon Lord, which he had spent the whole night working on, to his assistant, and then returned to his office to take a short rest.
Half an hour later, the assistant returned, looking somewhat troubled: "Chief Engineer, according to the R&D department's report, it seems that the ending of Demon Lord Yunqi cannot be changed no matter what. Forcing a change will only cause our system to crash, and the ending of this NPC character still cannot be corrected."
The newspaper fell off Li Muge's face. She rubbed her eyes and said, "It can't be changed. How could it be? Could it be the work of a hacker? We must investigate thoroughly. Also, have the R&D department, the plot analysis department, and the cybersecurity department investigate who the lover of the NPC Demon Lord Yun Qi is in the game."
The assistant nodded: "Yes, Chief Engineer."
Originally, Li Muge wasn't that concerned about this matter, but with the potential for system malfunction, as the game's chief designer, she was definitely putting in her best effort. Moreover, after leaving, she couldn't remember anything about the game.
Three hours later, the assistant rushed over and handed the report he had collected to Li Muge without saying a word.
Li Muge was still getting used to how unsteady her assistant was, but when she saw the words on the screen, she was extremely surprised.
The assistant, panting, said, "Chief Engineer, after meticulous joint testing, all departments have ruled out the possibility of hackers in the game." He paused, glancing at Li Muge's expression, "Furthermore, Chief Engineer, we discovered that the NPC Yun Qi, who had a romantic entanglement with the Demon Lord, had his consciousness enter the game."
At this moment, Li Muge felt as if a thunderbolt had struck her head, leaving her stunned and speechless.
If Demon Lord Yun Qi likes her, then what kind of person is she? He'll just use her and then kick her to the curb.
Good heavens, just thinking about it is utterly immoral.
The assistant asked worriedly, "Chief Engineer, are you alright? Actually, you don't need to worry. It's just a game, and the Demon Lord is just an NPC."
Li Muge waved her hand: "It's nothing. I just want to calm down. You can go out now."
The assistant nodded, thoughtfully made Li Muge a cup of Americano before leaving.
Li Muge said he was fine, but how could he be? Even though Yun Qi was just an NPC, Li Muge had a conscience!
Although she knew she shouldn't be suspicious, Li Muge still consulted ancient books and chose to use the ancient method of worshipping ancestors, specifically selecting a crossroads.
Of course, there would be surveillance cameras at the intersection. In order to avoid his embarrassing moment being captured by the smart camera, Li Muge hacked the 360-degree smart camera beforehand.
We'll fix it after she finishes burning the paper money and gold ingots.
At midnight, Li Muge, like a thief, carried paper money, candles, and other offerings on his back, along with a large iron basin, to burn paper money for Yun Qi.
The apology was particularly sincere: "Yun Qi, I'm really sorry. Please don't blame me if I'm wrong. I really didn't mean to hurt you. Although I don't know if you've turned to ashes or where you NPCs go after you die, I still hope you won't come looking for me after you've received your paper money. I really just want to get a good night's sleep. It's not easy being in our line of work. We often die suddenly."
Li Muge bowed sincerely, and when she opened her eyes again, she suddenly found herself staring at a man.
The man was dressed in ancient costume, and his demeanor was gentle and refined.
He slowly opened his eyes, revealing his deep gaze: "Miss, in the middle of the night, are you offering sacrifices to me?"
Li Muge: "..."
This is a zombie coming back to life! Li Muge was even more certain after hearing the man's voice. This was indeed Demon Lord Yun Qi. It turned out that her intuition was right. This NPC, Demon Lord Yun Qi, had not actually vanished into thin air.
Li Muge hesitated before asking, "Are you Yun Qi?"
Yun Qi frowned slightly. "This, young lady, did you mispronounce a line? This scene wasn't in the script."
Li Muge covered her lips.
This is pure and simple – it's Demon Lord Yun Qi who came to seek revenge after his death! Li Muge threw the remaining paper money over the man's head and ran faster than a rabbit.
Yun Qi was completely confused: "Miss, don't go, the filming isn't finished yet!"
The director also emerged from the shadows, holding a megaphone: "Cut! Assistant director, where did you find these actors? How can they be so unprofessional?"
