Chapter 960: Chapter 525 Are You Teasing Me_2 Chapter 960: Chapter 525 Are You Teasing Me_2 “Is this really okay, Boss?”

“Not really, but I don’t care. They’re all just bored and looking for me to spice things up or start some new activity. Just ignore them.”

Looking at the shameless Boss, another reason to wish the gods of misfortune upon him rose up.

But she had no other choice but to take over the Boss’s permissions and started to go through them one by one.

During the space travel phase, every battleship has a captain. The captain is responsible for the needs of the digital life players on board, collecting these needs and then sending them to the Boss.

But as the Boss said, these requests were quite boring.

Actually, the Photonic People were quite nice to the players, knowing that players might feel uncomfortable inside the keyboards, so they added a lot of games they liked.

The problem is, the taste in games of the Photonic People can only be described as tragic.

It seemed as if they never unlocked any advanced levels in their gaming technology tree, and their understanding of games was only limited to simple simulations of the real world.

Their favorite game was a simulation of rock-paper-scissors, such a simple game, yet countless Photonic People were tirelessly amused, playing it every day.

Watching the Photonic People enthusiastically recommending this game, the players could only say: as long as you’re happy.

Also, because of this, the bored players were eager for the Boss to create some excitement, after all, Wu Wei ascended to godhood and left us in your hands!

Do something, foster father!

Looking at the requests, she couldn’t afford to be as indifferent as the Boss and gently replied to each one.

However, when she came across a certain message, she paused, then turned her head and asked, “Boss, do you want to take a look at this one?”

“No, I don’t. I don’t even want to see messages from the patrons, let alone from players.”

“But this seems to be from a patron.”

The Boss, who was busy making paper airplanes from documents, stopped, then tossed the airplane emotionlessly: “Still don’t want to, unless it’s from a big patron daddy.”

“It seems to be precisely from patron daddy, looks like someone named Gao Tianyun.”

The Boss flipped and jumped down, staring at the letter for a good ten minutes, washing each word in his eyes before letting go.

After reading it, he started to ponder meticulously, like a teenager in love composing a letter to his crush, and finally sent a reply that was enthusiastic yet reserved:
[Boss Gao, I am here. What do you need?]
After replying, he let out a long sigh of relief and turned to find his student, touched by misfortune, squinting at him.

“What are you looking at me for? The research funding he gave is a bit generous, what’s wrong with being polite?”

“It’s more than just ‘a bit’.” She said speechlessly, “I understand that funding is the backbone for an advisor, but it seems like all your backbone comes from them.”

“…I’ll raise your living expenses, no more complaints.”

Gao Tianyun’s reply came swiftly and was straightforward: [I have a friend interested in what you’re currently working on, they will visit you later. Please host them.]
Although he didn’t know why the other party would make contact through Gao Tianyun, a friend of dad is a friend of his own, so the Boss immediately replied: [No problem at all, Boss Gao. Anytime!]
“Boss, you look like a dog.” She said coldly.

“…I’ll raise your living expenses again, now be quiet.”

And the friend Gao Tianyun mentioned arrived promptly.

His profession must be a Cultivator.

When he arrived, it was clear he had come in the flesh, and since the battleship’s alarm didn’t react, it showed he was a very high-end player.

Seeing his ID, the Boss was taken aback for a moment, harboring some doubts, but said nothing.

Fang Cheng then took the seat opposite the Boss, gave a slight nod, and said, “Sorry to disturb you.”

“Not at all, you must be Boss Gao’s friend.”

Fang Cheng pondered for a moment about his relationship with Gao Tianyun, feeling that there was a deep karmic entanglement between them, their bond quite strong, and so he nodded and replied, “Yes, a friend.”

Looking at the ID “Fang Cheng EX” above Fang Cheng’s head, Boss Gao was 90 to 80 percent certain that the person was indeed Fang Cheng.

Although he was clueless why this legendary game producer had come here under a pseudonym, a friend of my dad’s is also my dad, so there was no reason not to treat him well.

Besides, having another dad meant having another road, and this dad was one he definitely wanted to secure.

Therefore, he personally delivered a cup of tea to Fang Cheng and then asked with a smile, “Fang Cheng EX, what brings you here?”

“Indeed, just a little something. I’ve been feeling a bit bored lately. Got any fun ideas?”

To Fang Cheng, “Stellar Nebula” was his ideal vision of a game that handed its developmental direction over to the players.

Hence, he designed the Virtue System, allowing players to burn their own virtue to understand various Laws, and even included the chance to become gods.

The recent deification of Wu Wei was because of his role as the chief commander who got entangled in too many karmic ties, and in the process amassed a great amount of virtue, finally giving rise to a new god.

Fang Cheng found this process quite amusing, but the subsequent interstellar travel bored him to death.

However, he merely mentioned this offhandedly, and Mysterious Mirror heard it, then went to find Gao Tianyun, leading to this particular arrangement.

After hearing Fang Cheng’s question, Boss Gao immediately nodded and said, “I’ve had the same thought, so I’ve been pondering how to address this issue. Unlucky, why don’t you fill Mr. Fang in on what we’ve discussed before.”

“Me?”

Unlucky’s eyes widened as he looked at Boss Gao, already considering whether he should twist off the boss’s head and kick it around like a ball.

But Boss Gao’s private message arrived promptly: [You always have quick wits, think of something fast, and I’ll up your allowance.]
[Other than increasing my allowance, what else can you do?]
[I can give you lots of allowance, even enough that you’d feel like you’re on the job.]
[…Deal.]
After ending the conversation, Unlucky’s mind spun into action, retrieving his previously written papers and blurting out, “We’re planning to hold a big game contest.”

“Hmm, elaborate,” Fang Cheng asked with intrigued.

“Look, everyone is bored right now, but the Photonic People actually do quite well with virtual simulations; their hard drives basically have everything. It’s just that they’re not really into making games, so it’s all pretty dull.”

“Go on.”

Buoyed by Fang Cheng’s encouragement, Unlucky took a breath and stood a little taller, “So, we can’t let these materials go to waste. Let’s just hold a big game contest here. Players can use the materials to create games, and then have the Photonic People judge them. This way, players have something to do, and afterwards, they can play the games that each other have made.”

Fang Cheng thought it over for a moment and found the idea somewhat interesting.

But he still asked, “How about the programmers?”

“Let’s have the Photonic People do it. I feel they might be quite interested.”

“And the artists?”

“Also Photonic People.”

“How will the bugs be fixed?”

Unlucky hesitated for a second, but Boss Gao immediately picked up the conversation and said seriously, “We still have some nukes in stock. Just detonate one on schedule each day to clear out the bugs.”

After considering the nature of the nukes, Fang Cheng nodded and said, “That could work, let’s do it. I’m looking forward to it.”

Watching Fang Cheng’s satisfied smile, Boss Gao also took a deep breath of relief, feeling his own confidence might grow stronger.

Meanwhile, Unlucky gave Boss Gao a quiet thumbs-up.

Thinking of using nukes to fix bugs–you’re not an ordinary guy, boss.

And so, a big game contest held within a game began.

When the other players learned of Boss Gao’s plan, they all had pretty much the same reaction.

Are you guys kidding me?
