Wang Buyi and Xia Ci ate almost the same. Xia Ci called the clerk and prepared to pay the bill.

"Thirty-five dollars in total." The clerk reported the accounts, and then watched with strange eyes as Xia Ci counted from a pile of coins.

"Thirty-four...... Thirty-four pieces of five...... Thirty-five ......"

Xia Ci spent two years saving less than forty yuan of pocket money, and as a result, he used seventy-seven eighty-eight on this unpalatable lunch.

She didn't know that she was distressed, but she was very satisfied: "Sure enough, it is worthy of the treasures provided by the hermit." I feel invincible, and I won't be afraid of unspeakable evil in three days! ”

Wang Bucheng couldn't bear to say anything. While they were eating, the "California Western Restaurant" had no other customers except for the two of them. There's definitely a reason why a restaurant is running so bleakly.

Back home, Wang Buyi continued to compile "Frenzy" from Chinese to English. There are about 1o NPCs in "Frenzy Beta", and they can only support about 1o hours of gameplay in the ever-evolving zombie horde at most, and then they will all be wiped out because they are outnumbered.

And Wang Bu plans to release the "Frenzy O.5 Edition" tomorrow, and is ready to add 4O NPCs, but the game time can be increased by at least dozens of times.

Because in "Frenzy", after the survivors are found by the player, they will form a small society. These NPCs will be self-reliant, divide labor and work together, and produce food, medicine, and munitions, so that the player's equipment level will be increased accordingly.

But the NPCs with a total of fifty people still can't keep up with the evolution of zombies. Only with about 8o NPCs can the balance of power be maintained.

In the full version of Frenzy, the number of NPCs is 1oo full. In other words, even if the player collects all the NPCs, they will only have a small advantage over the zombies. The balance between this is carefully calculated by Wang Buful. It's not too easy to make the player feel bored, and it's not too hard to cause the player to suffer.

Xia Ci sat opposite Wang Buful, holding the "Geometry" textbook, and was cracking the mysterious totem.

Unlike in the past, when she was concentrating on studying, today she was always distracted, and somehow, her eyes turned from the textbook to Wang Buful's face. She often has to watch for a long time to react and continue to crack the totem.

As a result, before a totem was cracked, he was distracted again.

"I'll better recite a foreign language." Xia Ci was not convinced, took out the English textbook, and began to copy the words.

She had a bad problem with foreign languages before. Thinking that she is the eldest princess, alas, it is impossible for her to speak to a foreign person in a foreign language. But it's not okay if she doesn't study, if she fails the exam, her mother, who hasn't been home for a long time, will scold her on the phone again.

But today, not only has the state not improved, but it has actually dropped to a new level, and even the words that I remembered before have been forgotten. Xia Ciqi stomped his feet and didn't learn!

Anyway, with the guardian spirit, I just need to be the eldest princess well, do I have to study so hard?

But if you don't study, you don't know what to do. She stumbled into the bathroom, where there was a small mirror. She stared at herself in the small mirror, and there was a dim hint of panicked consciousness.

……

On the other side of the globe, the Villefort company.

After receiving Li Ming's call, the two founders of the company were completely sleepy and immediately drove to the company's office.

They all know Li Ming's strength, and they also believe that Li Ming, who can produce "Counter-Strike", has the vision. So, when Li Ming informed them that a game appeared on the discussion board of the official website that could be more than Counter-Strike, they immediately realized what it meant.

When the two founders came to the office, Li Ming was already waiting there. The moment he saw the post, he realized the height of Frenzy, but there was nothing that stood in the way of the game's idea. Because he has already joined Villefort and has also been given an option. If Villefort's performance improves, he will also reap significant benefits.

"Lee, is this the game you're talking about?" One of the founders looked curiously at the ThinkPad brought by Li Ming, on which a dark-toned game was already running.

"I promise, it's an amazing piece. If it weren't for the fact that the cloth man said that this was his own work, I would almost think that this was a masterpiece made by EA, Blizzard, and Microsoft! Li Ming assured the two: "I just played for a while, it was just too fascinating." ”

"Let me try." The founder sat in front of the computer, played for a while, and then quit the game without saying a word, and instead looked at the game's files.

"Mike, what's wrong?" Another founder said inexplicably.

"He's using our Half-Life engine, but why is the picture quality so much better? I don't understand! Half-Life has squeezed out all the potential of the engine! "The founder is in charge of the work and pays more attention to the technical stuff.

So the other founder had to take his own computer and download "Frenzy" to experience it himself. After establishing the character, choosing a class, and familiarizing himself with the game mechanics, he said to Li Ming in amazement: "This is indeed a game that has never been seen before. I can consider forgiving you for interrupting my sweet dreams. ”

"Yes." Li Ming didn't like to joke very much, and said seriously: "If you play a little longer, you will have an even more amazing appearance." I created two characters, one as the 'Salesman', who would appear in a more dispersed community and quickly get help from teammates by rescuing survivors. The other character is the 'Retired Soldier', who appears in a bar upon entering the game and has guns at the start...... The choice before the game starts is not a decoration, but a choice of how the game is played. ”

"Really?" The founder quit the game suspiciously and re-selected the characters, and sure enough, as the strength of the characters changed and the number of zombies fluctuated, the rhythm of the game was completely different from before.

"Indeed, if a disaster strikes, soldiers should move faster than civilians. Such a change of rhythm is really a genius design. The founder nodded, looked up and asked his partner who was with him, "Mike, I'm going to buy this game, what do you think?" ”

"Whatever you want. However, by the way, we have to buy the author's improved engine as well. In this way, the production of "Half-Life 2", which has been delayed, can begin. The founder of the name Mike said without looking back.

……

The king was so busy that he forgot the time. I had dinner in the middle, and I was busy until nine o'clock in the evening, so that I could be considered to have done the VO.5 version of "Frenzy".

Shaking his slightly sore neck, Wang Bu looked outside, and it was actually dark. There was no one in the room, and there was no one in the kitchen. He said loudly: "Xia Porcelain? ”

"Little princess?"

"Porcelain?"

screamed three times in a row, Xia Ci walked out of the bathroom with his head tilted, his wet head hanging down, obviously washing his hair just now, "What are you shouting, I'm the eldest princess!" Not a little princess! ”

"Your Royal Highness, Eldest Princess." Wang Bu smiled.

"It's not good!" Xia Ci frowned, it was obviously the title she wanted, but she really called it and disgusted it, "You called the one just now!" ”

"Little princess?"

"Not this!" Xia Ci tilted his head and stomped his feet, and several drops of water fell to the ground along his head.

"Porcelain?"

"That's what you'll call me from now on!" After Xia Ci finished speaking, he went into the bathroom again and closed the door tightly.

Wang Bu looked at the closed door and patted his thigh, only to remember that he didn't call her for anything, mainly because he was a little sleepy and wanted to ask where he could sleep.

Xia Ci's home is the kind of dormitory layout with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom. I don't feel anything during the day, but it's inconvenient to sleep at night.

Wait for Xia Ci to come out and ask.

Xia porcelain was washed for half an hour. By the time she came out, Wang had already dozed off on her cot.

Xia Citou was wet, and he stood beside Wang Buyi on tiptoe, bending down to carefully look at the guardian spirit that had been summoned yesterday.

She summoned for two whole years, and finally summoned Wang Buful, her guardian spirit.

After watching it for almost ten minutes, Xia Ci could be considered to have seen enough, she took off her socks for Wang Buying, and then pulled Wang Bucheng to lie down.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a little guy with long black hair, like Sadako in "Midnight Bell", just one size smaller, and wearing a Chinese middle school uniform.

Wang was startled and hurriedly sat up. The trumpet "Sadako" also turned his head to look at himself, of course, Xia Porcelain. He smiled: "You scared me to death, and you are not allowed to be scared in the future." ”

"Why!" Xia Ci was wronged, and he definitely didn't do it, "I'll help you cover the quilt, you wronged people!" ”

"Okay, good, it's me who wronged people, it's me who is wrong." Wang Buyi immediately surrendered and asked, "Porcelain, where do you say I will sleep tonight?" ”

"That's it." Xia Ci didn't know how to peel off the black that blocked his face, maintaining the image of Xiao Sadako, and said, "I don't have any other beds at home." So you just slept with me, just to protect me from the unspeakable evil. ”

"Isn't that right?" Wang did not hesitate. The little girl's mother has been absent for more than two years, and she may not really have these concepts.

"What's so bad. In this way, whether it is the Giant Voice Demon or the Ze Demon, I am not afraid. Xia Ci nodded repeatedly.

Wang Bu looked at the table, either lying there for the night, or lying here. His heart was horizontal, anyway, he was not afraid of the shadow crooked, he covered the quilt with a bang, turned around and was about to close his eyes, and remembered something, and admonished: "Porcelain, you can't just let other boys sleep next to you in the future." ”

Even if Xia Ci didn't have any concept, she was a little ignorant, she kicked Wang Buying's knee and covered her head with the quilt without saying a word.

Wang Bubu didn't hurt at all. He looked at the high bulging quilt bag beside him, and said in his heart that his head was damp, so he slept like this, didn't he sleep with his head smelly? But even if it stinks, he doesn't dislike it, and he is really sleepy, so he turned off the lights and lay on the edge of the bed, feeling that he might fall down at any time.

The night went by.
