138: This is a horror game

"That's a beautiful thought!"

Lin Weixin's eyes widened when she heard this.

As one of the main programmers for the later versions of Dungeon & Fighter, she knew how difficult it would be to implement this idea.

Not to mention others, even she herself wouldn't dare to conceive of such a thing.

This would be a monumental project!

The other colleagues were also looking at Yu Waner as if she were an alien.

What a dreamer!

"Alright, alright, I was just saying it casually."

Facing everyone's gaze, Yu Waner explained with a little embarrassment.

A few months after joining Aoyou Tianxia Company, this former punk girl had now shed her heavy makeup and returned to her natural appearance.

The daily grind of working from early morning to late night left her no time to groom herself.

Although Yu Waner didn't doll herself up now, she was still a beautiful woman, looking as innocent and lovely as a young person fresh out of school.

"I want to develop VR-compatible games. Currently, I have two options: grand theft auto: vice city and outlast.

Both are single-player games, the difference being... one can relax your mind, while the other..."

When President Xu mentioned the latter, he suddenly stopped speaking.

Recalling his own experience of being so scared when he first played this game that he couldn't even turn off the lights to sleep, his mind filled with terrifying images, always feeling like a monster would suddenly jump out...

"What's wrong? Why didn't you finish?"

"Yeah, what about the other half?"

"President Xu, it's not good to keep us in suspense!"

"Now that you mention it, I really want to know more about outlast."

"Just hearing the name, it sounds like trouble!"

...

Everyone started to urge him.

Xu Lian could only reluctantly reveal the answer, "It's a horror game.

I wonder if any of you are interested in trying it? It might be quite fun."

However, for him, such things held no appeal at all.

Knowing the outcome and still forcing himself to try it, it would be embarrassing if he made a fool of himself then.

"Horror game? I bet it only scares little kids!" Yu Waner heard Xu Lian's words and immediately laughed with a hint of disdain: "When I used to play these games, I thought they would be so scary, but after actually trying them... they couldn't even scare a child, how boring!"

She was absolutely right.

Previously, Yu Waner was very interested in VR horror games.

But after repeatedly winning in those low-IQ horror games, Yu Waner was completely disappointed!

"Horror games? I'm not scared at all! President Xu, give me the script, I want to study it. I refuse to believe it can scare me!" Lin Weixin also joined the discussion.

What Yu Waner and Lin Weixin said made Xu Lian pause.

His two female employees were so bold?

This only meant that before that, Xu Lian had not experienced what this world called VR horror games.

If he had tried them, his attitude might have been the same as theirs, and he would have said disdainfully: "Ridiculous!"

"Alright then." Since they hadn't experienced true horror, Xu Lian decided to satisfy their curiosity and said to all the employees: "Everyone, put in some extra effort these next few days and make outlast. I really want to see if Yu Waner and Lin Weixin will still be so arrogant then!"

Since everyone wasn't interested in the first casual game, Xu Lian prioritized the horror game outlast.

Although they could research two games simultaneously, it would take too long.

It was better to finish outlast first, and with VR equipment, the effect would surely be amazing.

And outlast was especially suitable for first-person play, and with VR equipment, it would definitely bring unexpected results.

Everything had been arranged.

As for the VR equipment that had been bought, how to use it was up to the employees.

The game data was already theirs; how to implement it was not Xu Lian's concern.

As a boss, one naturally had to act like a boss.

If he did everything himself, it would be truly ridiculous.

It was almost lunchtime.

Xu Lian had nothing to do and wandered around the company.

Such a situation was rare for him.

Usually, as soon as he arrived at the company, he would either stay in his office or be in the meeting room, never having strolled around the employee area.

Work relied on self-discipline; if others had to supervise you, nothing good would come out of it.

In addition, everyone had work tasks, and as long as they completed them on time, they could use the remaining time as they wished.

Who stipulated that you must only do work-related things during working hours? That would be too rigid!

Xu Lian was not an aloof person; this could be seen from how freely everyone joked around him.

Such interaction could bring them closer and also motivate everyone to work better.

Otherwise, it would only lead to employee turnover, which would be a net loss.

"Do you even know how to suppress energy?! You're as stupid as pigs!"

"Hey! Don't run around recklessly, you're making it hard for me to fight monsters!"

"Healer, healer, quickly restore my status!"

Walking next to Yu Waner, Xu Lian heard her shouting wildly, her face full of anger.

Looking at the screen, he found that she was challenging the twenty-person team dungeon Antoun, and had already entered the Volcano phase.

So Yu Waner was a legendary Volcano C! Coincidentally, Xu Lian had nothing else to do, so he sat down next to Yu Waner to see if she could successfully clear this dungeon and witness the skills of this Volcano master.

"If you mess up like this again, I won't take you guys to clear Antoun! A bunch of noobs!"

After successfully clearing the dungeon, she chastised her teammates in voice chat.

She was furious because she hadn't gotten a single rare material.

Annoyed, Yu Waner exited the team dungeon and returned to Seria's room.

"Hmm?" It was then that Xu Lian noticed the weapon in the hand of the character Yu Waner was controlling was glowing red.

This was a special effect that required at least reinforcement, and he couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

He was somewhat surprised that Yu Waner could reinforce her weapon to this extent.

"President Xu... when did you arrive?" Yu Waner heard the sound, turned her head, and asked in surprise when she saw Xu Lian sitting next to her.

She had been fully engrossed in the game and hadn't noticed him come in.

Being so close to Xu Lian made her face flush a little, but seeing Xu Lian's gaze focused on the computer, some small emotions arose in her heart.

Then she said quite proudly, "How about it? Do you like my +13 equipment? I spent countless efforts to forge it.

Hmph, not just the weapon, now all my equipment is +13! Impressive, right?"

At this moment, Yu Waner was bursting with confidence.

It was important to know that among all the Dungeon & Fighter players, she was the only one who dared to reinforce her equipment to such an extent.

Many people didn't even dare to reinforce their equipment beyond +10, because failing again meant the equipment would be scrapped!
