125: Let’s code now
“I haven't slept in two days! This free mini-game is just too fun!”
“I've been playing for two days and two nights straight, and there's still so much I haven't tried. I'm too tired; I need to go to sleep!”
“Aoyou Tianxia Game Company is simply a godsend for freeloaders!”
“Have you all tried Dungeon & Fighter and crossfire on the Aoyou Platform? They're so addictive!”
“Aoyou Tianxia is truly a god-like existence! If there were a few more game companies like this, what money would we even spend on games? Everything could be free!”
As soon as these mini-games were released, the download numbers for Aoyou Communication and the Aoyou Games platform soared.
Although many people came for the free mini-games, once they experienced Dungeon & Fighter, crossfire, and minecraft, many were deeply captivated.
Especially minecraft, which had already received rave reviews from several daily newspapers.
And Dungeon & Fighter and crossfire are essentially free games; whether or not to top up depends on whether an individual can resist the game's temptations.
With the promotion of these free mini-games, Aoyou Tianxia's reputation soared, with many even calling it a conscientious company.
The Antoun twenty-person raid promotional video also attracted many players; even those who hadn't played Dungeon & Fighter before joined in and leveled up frantically.
Players spared no effort to meet the entry requirements before the Antoun raid went live.
The promotional video reached 800 million clicks, fully demonstrating players' anticipation for the Antoun raid.
The comments section was flooded with messages:
“Designer! If you keep this up, I'm calling the police!”
“Dad! Update it quickly! I don't want to stay in this version for another minute! Dad!”
“Why release such a video to tease us? It's been on my mind every day these past few days.
If you don't update soon, I'm quitting the game!”
“Such a big tortoise, I really want to walk on it!”
“I've learned all the tricks, but when will it update? Where is Antoun? Designer?”
“Fire-attribute main C is ready!”
“Designer, I'm begging you on my knees, hurry up and code! I want to fight the volcano!”
“Dad! Update quickly!”
President Xu, of course, was well aware of these earnest comments.
Seeing the numerous comments pleading for an update, President Xu also felt quite helpless.
“I want to update as soon as possible too, but the code isn't finished yet, so I can't release it. What can I do? I'm helpless too!”
He sat in his office, muttering to himself helplessly.
However, President Xu was not in a hurry.
He believed that the more eagerly players anticipated, the more it would drive the development of Dungeon & Fighter.
Moreover, more and more people were already leveling up in the game.
In any case, these people needed to level up their characters first, right?
While President Xu was lost in thought, a knock came from outside his office door.
“Come in,” he said.
Lin Weixin pushed the door open and said to President Xu, her face full of exhaustion, “President Xu, it's finally done! This was truly a massive undertaking; it wore me out!”
Lin Weixin complained as she walked up to President Xu, but the light in her eyes showed that her efforts were worthwhile.
After all, being able to participate in this major update was very significant for her.
These past few days, Yu Waner had also been helping, assisting Lin Weixin with coding almost day and night, not even having time to play games.
This demonstrated the immense appeal of The Seventh Apostle Antoun to Dungeon & Fighter players.
“You've worked hard.” Looking at Lin Weixin's exhausted face, President Xu said helplessly, “Take a few days off to rest well.”
President Xu could only shake his head helplessly at Lin Weixin, who had been working for several days straight.
“Arrange the tasks, and tomorrow we'll launch the Antoun twenty-person raid dungeon!”
Just as Lin Weixin was about to leave, President Xu spoke to her.
[Downtime Maintenance Notice: System update from March 11th at 10 PM to March 12th at 12 PM!]
[The Seventh Apostle, Flame Eater Antoun officially debuts!!]
[New twenty-person raid dungeon: The Seventh Apostle Antoun!]
[New epic weapons added!]
Lin Weixin quickly posted this exciting news on the official Weibo of Aoyou Tianxia Game Company!
················
The next day.
This day happened to be Saturday, also the peak time for online users!
At noon, twelve o'clock, the game had just finished maintenance!
Dungeon & Fighter players had long been eagerly waiting in front of their computers, swarming in as soon as the servers opened!
“It's finally updated!! I was going crazy waiting!”
“It used to open at six in the morning, but this time it dragged on until noon, twelve o'clock, making us wait several extra hours!!”
“Who cares, Antoun is so appealing, waiting a bit longer is fine, the important thing is it's finally out, right?”
“Don't block me!! I'm going to fight the volcano!”
“Ancient Ruin Katana, wait for me!!”
“Ancient Ruin Hand Cannon, it's mine!”
“...................”
As soon as the servers opened, everyone rushed to log in and entered the raid channel.
The channel, which should have been smooth, was now crowded with people, and every passage required a queue to enter.
“It's finally updated!”
As Yi Jie of Dungeon & Fighter, Lin Shufen naturally waited in front of her computer early. As soon as she saw the server open, she immediately logged in and shouted to her fans in the live stream, “Brothers, let's go defend the battleship!”
However, facing the crowded channel, even Lin Shufen was helpless.
When she saw The Seventh Apostle Antoun, newly launched in the game, she instantly felt a surge of excitement!!
But she quickly froze.
“How can it be so exaggerated? I logged in extremely quickly, and I still have to queue!”
Lin Shufen couldn't help but complain.
After waiting a few minutes, she finally entered the game.
“Hello, I'm Seria.”
“It's another day full of vitality!”
That familiar voice made Lin Shufen, who played games every day, feel incredibly close, but today she seemed even more excited than usual!
And as numerous players and Streamers poured into the game, an alarm sounded inside Aoyou Tianxia Game Company!
It came from the Antoun exclusive server!
“President Xu! The Antoun exclusive server is overloaded, there are too many players; if we don't solve it immediately, the server will crash!”
Team leader Chen Hang rushed into the office to report to President Xu.
His anxious expression said it all; if no measures were taken, the entire server would face paralysis!
After Chen Hang finished speaking, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was off.
Not only was President Xu present, but Lin Weixin was also there.
President Xu merely glanced at him, not responding, his fingers rapidly typing on the keyboard.
President Xu had long had a premonition about this situation.
After all, those 800 million views weren't fake!
