Chapter 981: Chapter 541 Unexpected Helper_2 Chapter 981: Chapter 541 Unexpected Helper_2 While some were tolerant of plugins and even learned to apply them to improve the gaming experience, making it more seamless,
Fang Cheng Studio was undoubtedly the latter.

Selecting the desired plugin package, Pingping felt as if Fang Cheng Studio seemed to be doing something very new.

The studio’s producer, Fang Cheng, appeared to intentionally create various blanks, anticipating that players would fill them.

She had played other games by Fang Cheng and knew that if he wanted to, the details could be made perfectly.

But now, he purposefully left them blank, much like the negative space in ink wash paintings, inviting players to fill them with their imaginations, creating a game co-developed by the players and the creator.

Reflecting on her experience after coming to “Stellar Nebula,” Pingping found that the game was largely player-led, with Fang Cheng Studio providing no guidance at all. It was all about player choice.

After sharing her thoughts, Pingping soon noticed a strange silence fall over the livestream chatroom.

It took a while before someone said, “Indeed, I also felt that way before, but I never had the right words to express it. Pingping, you really speak for me.”

“I feel the same. No wonder ‘Stellar Nebula’ feels so free. There are no main quests, no required tasks; all game content is open, and you just play whatever content you want.”

“I’ve already accepted ‘Stellar Nebula’ as my second life. I love the way people talk here; it’s so nice.”

After reading the comments for a while, Pingping realized she was not alone.

Although she didn’t know why Fang Cheng designed it this way, Pingping felt that he must want to make it a shared game between him and the players.

As this thought occurred to her, Fang Cheng also sensed Pingping’s intentions.

The Dustfire in his hand began to tremble, and bits of thoughts sparkled within like stars, emitting brilliant light.

The intertwining of various causes and effects continued, and the last fragment of his foundational path was being completed, making his presence even more ethereal.

Watching this scene unfold, Zhiyi Heavenly Lord set down the black chess piece in his hand, feeling an infinite sadness.

He wasn’t worried that the Great Heavenly Lord would leave without saying goodbye, because he knew Fang Cheng’s character well.

Before leaving, Fang Cheng would handle all issues as best as he could, leaving them with no worries.

But departures are always sad, and just the thought of the respected person leaving caused an unstoppable sense of loss to surge within him.

Softly shaking his head, Zhiyi Heavenly Lord placed a chess piece, turning his inner sadness into each move upon the board.

It wasn’t long before Pingping’s plugin was fully downloaded.

The plugin she downloaded was the most popular among mechanics, and upon installation, her eyes widened in astonishment.

“Incredible! It really feels like two games now!”

Her vision was enhanced, and everything in front of her was overlaid with various data, digitizing the entire world.

The control of the Nano Machines became simpler, with common commands integrated into shortcuts, making them more intuitive to use.

The mechanics’ frequent operations were also consolidated, and although this made the game less realistic, the added convenience only made it more enjoyable and significantly reduced player input.

The construction and deployment of machinery were also further optimized, with various commands even queuable or able to be automated to handle issues.

Excitedly playing with the new operations for a while, Pingping soon became skilled at controlling the Nano Machines, and the more she played, the happier she became.

Initially, the livestream audience could laugh as they watched Pingping play with the Nano Machines, but after a while, they began to feel unsettled.

“Do you guys get the feeling that Pingping is performing better than we imagined?”

“Agreed, I actually thought before that sister Pingping’s gaming skills were quite strong.”

“Huh? I thought everyone knew. I’m a prospective esports competitor with Dimensional, and Pingping’s technical skills are actually stronger than most people’s.”

“How about compared to you?”

“We’re talking about most people, let’s not drag me into this, okay?”

“`
[How do you compare to you?]
[…Stronger than me…]
[Wow, that impressive? I don’t believe it! You guys won’t destroy the fragile image of Pingping in my heart!]
And after trying different forms of Nano Machines, Pingping felt that this plugin was truly amazing.

Previously, controlling the Nano Machines required constant focus, not a second could be relaxed.

But since getting the plugin, controlling the Nano Machines became much simpler, many previously impossible maneuvers could now be smoothly executed, taking her strength to a new level.

After getting proficient, her Nano Machines could even move according to her own thoughts, truly achieving the speed of the weapon as fast as the mind.

In addition, the auto-defense function was also activated, a large number of Nano Machines could effectively block weapons like lasers and thermal energy, significantly enhancing her survivability.

With a blade in hand, the urge to kill arose, and even a cute girl like Pingping couldn’t resist the desire to transform into a fierce girl and find a place to vent thoroughly.

Just as she had this thought, she noticed some movement in the nearby bushes.

With a thought, numerous Nano Machines were launched, swiftly leveling the grassland and revealing the person behind.

The other party was also a valiant hero, seeing Pingping’s formidable approach, they promptly adopted a combat stance and decisively knelt on the ground.

“Miss, spare my life, I was just passing by!”

“Old Wang, what are you doing here?”

Wang Say Games then lifted his head, and after seeing the person in front of him, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Sitting up, he panted and said, “Oh, it’s you. I thought I was being attacked. The thought that I might become the first person to be killed by a Platypus-like creature was so ridiculous I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. By the way, are you streaming? I am too. Since we’ve met, it’s fate, let’s stream together.”

Pingping was just about to agree when she saw someone in the chat promote to ‘captain’ and leave a message: [Kill him, quick, kill him!]
[Seconded!]
[Old Man is nothing but trash!]
“How can you guys talk about Old Wang Say Games like that!” Pingping rarely lost her temper, “Old Wang is such an outstanding quality streamer, how can you be so harsh!”

[Pingping, we’re saying this for your own good, why are you defending him?]
[I remember, it was a few years ago, sister Pingping started out because of “Spreading Traditional Culture Starting from Me,” but the game got banned for a while. It was Old Wang who worked hard, along with others, to get it unbanned.]
[I remember now. But he was just a streamer known for antics, even though he had his moments back then.]
[But in my heart, Old Wang is second only to the Xiemen Waidao character! Having such a guy around our sister Pingping, she’ll be contaminated!]
[Don’t make it sound so terrible! I’m getting imagery here!]
[Afterward, Pingping will learn Old Wang’s streaming style, become a little spiritual sister, and then find a rapper boyfriend, her streaming style will gradually become more abstract!]
[Stop talking already!]
[In this abstract and materialistic world, this was supposed to be my final sanctuary, it cannot be polluted!]
[But that guy is Old Wang, Old Wang who holds a kindness to Pingping!]
[So I don’t know what to do!]
The chatroom was already in chaos, leaving Pingping, who saw the messages, quite puzzled.

Old Wang Say Games was obviously such a great streamer, why didn’t everyone understand that.

But no matter, she believed that after this stream, everyone’s opinion of him would change.

So, she nodded and said to Old Wang, “No problem, let’s stream together.”

[No, Pingping girl.]
