Chapter 362: That Morbid and Paranoid Game Development Character (1)
This world is a bit crude.
Not in the literal sense of the word.
For example, now, Bai Yichen stood in front of the bedroom door, thoughtful. He touched the door handle again - the door, which should have been opened by pressing down hard, did not move at all.
It's like there's a wall behind the door.
He silently let go, stepped over the cat and mouse dolls scattered on the ground, and walked to the window.
The night sky was pitch black, dotted with a few flickering stars. Looking down from a high vantage point, the hustle and bustle of traffic below and the tall buildings in the distance were blurry.
Excluding the possibility that he is nearsighted, how should I put it? It's like an open world game that was hastily uploaded without being completed.
Faced with this situation, Xiao Heixin abandoned his personality and ran back to report to his superiors.
Scratching his hair, Bai Yichen struggled to take out his mobile phone from the bed piled with cat dolls. After unlocking it, in addition to the system's built-in software, there was an icon that was particularly eye-catching.
A black logo with a few stars painted on it, and below it are the four big words "Starry Night Mobile Game".
[I have learned my lesson and am no longer the black-hearted person I once was.]
It finally understood that a too complicated character could not be given to Bai Yichen, so -
[In this world, you just need to play the role of a pervert, a pervert who is madly in love with the character in the game. ]
Bai Yichen touched his chin. It seemed that this was the game that Xiao Heixin was talking about.
Humph, just a game character. He is not the kind of person who would be addicted to the two-dimensional world!
When you enter the game, there is only a mediocre introduction.
——The starry night contains miracles.
"Tch, mysterious."
The subtitles slowly disappeared, and suddenly a shaking black gift box popped up on the screen, with "Please choose one" written underneath.
"..."
Bai Yichen rubbed his eyes, rubbed them again, and even turned the phone over and over again, staring at the line of words for a long time in silence.
No, what are you doing?
It's just a gift box and you want me to choose the yarn!
Okay, I get it now.
Bai Yichen suddenly realized (fog), you chose me, right! ?
With a hint of silence, he clicked it.
The ripple effect flashed by, and the red ribbon was torn apart by an invisible giant hand. The lid of the gift box fell to the side, and colorful ribbons exploded. With a ritualistic "bang" sound, the gift box disappeared.
"..."
He was about to curse when the screen began to fade from dark to bright—but not completely.
In the simple and tattered cardboard box, a black, skinny kitten appeared before my eyes, its hair tangled into wisps, traces of red strokes indicating its current injured state, its abdomen rising and falling weakly, and its eyes tightly closed.
It looks quite pitiful.
The circular avatar in the upper left corner of the screen displays the image of a kitten's head in real time, with two long strips, one thick and one thin, on the right.
The thick bar above is health, one quarter red.
The indicator below is the satiety level, which has already reached the bottom and is flashing a warning red light.
All signs indicate that the kitten is in bad condition.
Bai Yichen clicked on the satiety level and a prompt popped up.
[Saturation will affect health. A prolonged low satiety will affect the cub's condition.]
Click on health again.
[The health value reaches the bottom, which means death. 】
Bai Yichen hissed.
"No way, he's going to starve to death right after being adopted?"
He tapped the kitten a few times, but there was no response.
As if the kitten's status had been fully displayed, the black color in the upper right corner of the screen dissipated, and a logo appeared half-hidden, along with a sentence.
[Dear, the baby's condition is not optimistic. Please buy basic food for it to keep its health and satiety back to normal levels~]
Bai Yichen understood. A tutorial for beginners, right?
He clicked on the sign and stayed where he was.
[First recharge of 6 yuan will get you two pieces of soft bread and a bottle of purified water~]
[Double first deposit, dear~]
Bai Yichen returned decisively and squinted his eyes to vaguely see the two words under the icon.
It turns out it’s not [Mall], but [Recharge].
Is your game serious?
Whose game forces players to spend money right from the start?!
trash game!
As soon as his hand pressed the exit button, the kitten in the middle of the screen trembled, and let out a weak and soft "meow", directly controlling Bai Yichen for three seconds.
The kitten opened its eyes tremblingly, its plum-red vertical pupils looked like blood flowing, and the whiskers on its cheeks trembled slightly with its breathing.
Cute yet fragile, like a candle in the wind, it seems like it will go out if you are not careful.
Isn’t it just six yuan?
He spent money!
Bai Yichen's heart was bleeding. His fingers trembled five or six times before he clicked on the word "recharge" and paid six yuan.
The text message popped up the next second. He stood up and rubbed his eyes hard.
"Oh my god! One, ten, hundred, thousand, brother, father, grandfather, ancestors, God!!!"
The countless zeros made his heart beat like thunder, and the message from Little Black Heart suddenly rang in his head.
[No one can suffer, but the child cannot suffer. The money has been received. If it is not enough, go to the backstage and use the points I left to exchange. ]
"My heart is sobbing..."
Bai Yichen held the phone in his hand, his eyes turning into egg-shaped dots.
I was so moved that I couldn't help myself.
After wiping away his tears, he became full of fighting spirit.
198? Charge!
348? Charge!
648? Two!
I doubled the amount on the first deposit and bought a few more for 648 depending on my mood.
Bai Yichen enjoyed the excitement of recharging money at will for the first time, and he was still not satisfied. Later he realized that he had received a lot of free rewards, so he opened the backpack.
[Brand new strawberry-scented quilt x6] [Wooden coffee table x9] [Small biscuits to satisfy hunger x20]...
There were a lot of daily necessities and so on. Comparing them with human things, Bai Yichen thought for a while, ordered a piece of soft bread, dragged it in front of the kitten and put it down.
The kitten's ears stood up and its eyes suddenly widened, as if it had been frightened. It moved backwards with difficulty, and the red color representing the wound grew larger until it shrank into the corner of the cardboard box.
Bai Yichen was at a loss, "...Why don't you eat?"
This is different from what he imagined.
Suddenly, he saw a box with words popping up in the bottom center of the screen and clicked on it to expand.
[The cub is weak, his stomach is growling, and his vitality is in danger. ]
[The baby is sleepy and hungry, the action function is closed, the interactive function is closed. 】
The latest one is.
[Current mood of the baby: panic (cannot eat when frightened)]
Bai Yichen scratched his head. The interactive function was not unlocked, so he couldn't touch the kitten's head to comfort it. He could only carefully drag the bread and place it in front of the kitten.
The kitten opened its plum-red eyes wide and stared at the bread. It made a faint warning sound in its throat and moved its nose, wanting to eat but not daring to.
"Ugh."
Bai Yichen was very patient. He moved the bread in front of the kitten little by little and then stopped moving. Then he dragged a bottle of water, repeated the previous action, and slowly put it together with the bread.
Staring at the kitten's movements on the screen.
