"Then the contract is concluded!"

Lilith took the quill and contract from Gu Fan's hand with a happy face.

The contract was long, dragged from mid-air to the ground and rolled around a few times, a bit like a receipt that hadn't been torn up at the cash register of a convenience store for a long time.

As for Lilith, the image of this powerful demon in the human world is that of a bad girl.

She wears a gray double ponytail, two gold cross-shaped hairpins, a black T-shirt with a red blood pattern on the upper body, denim shorts with silver pendants with broken edges on the lower body, two colors of over-the-knee socks on her feet, and platform leather boots with black and white skull patterns.

Although she will give people the illusion of 'cuteness' when facing French fries and Coke, Gu Fan knows that the true face of this product is a sinister, cunning, and terrifying hellish demon!

"I didn't expect that my life as a traverser has just begun, and it is about to end......"

Gu Fan looked at the "game design draft" provided by Lilith in front of him, and sighed in his heart.

That's right, he's a traverser.

This is a parallel world similar to the previous life, the time is the imperial capital in 2024. As a highly skilled programmer, Gu Fan was gearing up and felt that he could make a career.

But before the crossing was complete, his soul was cut off by Lilith.

"Hello this traverser, you don't want others to know about your crossing, do you?"

Gu Fan's traverser soul could not enter the body of the aborigines, so he could only be forced to sign this demonic contract.

The contract was that Lilith would provide him with a fifty-year lifespan, and he would work for Lilith, writing code and developing games.

As for why Hell has started a side hustle with the times? Here's how Lilith explains.

"Oops, it's annoying to say!

"We used to be good in hell, and the traditional business has been doing well, but the situation has changed in the past two years.

"A group of executives in your big factories have died, and after going to hell, you don't know how to fool around, and you talk about Lucifer's old thing.

"What fission, gripper, coupling, alignment granularity, enablement and so on......

"As a result, Lao Lu really thought that there was a big problem with the organizational structure on the hell side, and he had to engage in "flat management" and "develop a new business model", not only did a senior executive like me personally grasp the business, but all the demons were also pressed on a lot of indicators!

"It is impossible to count on these indicators for traditional business to be completed on schedule, and I can only keep pace with the times and try to harvest people's negative emotions on a large scale with games!"

Thus, this amazing company "Antiheaven Games" was founded.

Gu Fan is ostensibly the legal representative of this company, but in fact he is a bitter programmer who has been kidnapped by a demonic contract and has no freedom at all.

He must make the game strictly according to Lilith's requirements, and if he does, he will be immediately reclaimed from his lifespan!

On the surface, the contract seems to be treated pretty well.

As the president and chief designer of "Antiheaven Games", Gu Fan can not only get a basic salary of 8,000 per month and 5% of the game's profit as a bonus, but also get the corresponding fame and social status.

If "Antiheaven Games" can get lucky enough to become the game company with the highest valuation in the world, Gu Fan can also immediately terminate the contract and restore his freedom.

But how could the contract signed by the demon not be pitted?

This contract is full of pitfalls, and one of the biggest pitfalls is that if the game can't make money, then everything except the basic salary of 8,000 per month is a blank check!

The first game Lilith was going to make was called Helltracks.

The main content of the game is: the seal of the gate of hell is loose, and all kinds of powerful demons pour out of hell, and the player needs to play the role of a soldier with a loaded gun, starting from the human city to the gate of hell, tracking the trajectory of the invasion of hell, destroying various demons along the way, and finally sealing the gate of hell.

In terms of content, this is a pretty standard FPS (First Person Shooter) game.

But if you look closely, you will find that there is a serious imbalance between the human played by the player and the demon played by the AI!

The guns on the player's side are all common guns in FPS games, such as the Desert Eagle, AK47, 98K, AWM sniper rifles, and the like.

On the other hand, the firearms equipped on the demon's side can be described as "outrageous". For example, "Hellfire Gatling", "Apocalypse Heavy Cannon", "Plague Smoke Grenade", and so on.

The attributes of these guns have been fully enhanced, and the attributes such as rate of fire, lethality, and attack range are all completely crushing the player's conventional weapons!

Not only that, but the AI on the demon side is also outrageous.

In the design plan, Lilith set the AI of these demons to the maximum, which means that their reaction speed and shooting accuracy can completely crush most humans, and even the pros will have to take two kicks when they come!

Gu Fan had no doubt that if the plan was strictly followed, then the vast majority of players would probably be persuaded to retreat in front of the first demon mob in the first level.

The game's charging model is also bizarre: it's priced at just 18 yuan, and you try it for 2 hours before you pay.

Obviously, Lilith has no intention of making money from this game at all, she only has one purpose, which is to trick players in as much as possible and harvest negative emotions as quickly as possible!

These games are unlikely to make money or earn word of mouth.

Anti-Heaven Games can only become a garbage game production factory, and Gu Fan will be spurned by thousands of people and become a Class A war criminal in the game circle!

As for the condition for terminating the contract of "Reverse Heaven Games becomes the most valued game company in the world", it will never be achieved.

That's why Gu Fancai said that his life as a traverser had just begun, and it was already coming to an end!
