Chapter 478 4.0 version BOSS, Taoyao?
Chapter 478 4.0 version BOSS, Taoyao?
The eternal heartbeat has never been so chaotic.
She stood in the corner of the room, her body stiff, trying to reduce her presence as much as possible.
However, that gentle figure was like the sword of Damocles hanging over her head.
Taoyao didn't look at her.
Didn't even show any abnormality.
It was as if everything that happened at the scene had nothing to do with her.
It was as if what she said to Shiloh was not meant to scare anyone.
But the more this happened, the more frightened Eternity became.
There is always the calm before the storm.
Unknown punishment is far more tormenting to the heart than direct anger.
Zhongmo looked impatient, pacing back and forth in the room, urging everyone to leave this boring place quickly.
In the entire room, there were only Taoyao and Yongheng, one was terrifyingly calm, the other was terrified and silent.
Finally, the dragon maid finished cleaning up.
Tao Yao stretched out her slender fingers and lightly stroked the air.
Without any earth-shaking sound, a crack door filled with chaotic colors quietly opened.
"Let's go."
Taoyao's voice was still gentle, and she took the lead and walked in.
The end follows.
The dragon maid took one last look at the room and followed him in.
Yongheng suppressed the turbulent waves in his heart and could only follow suit.
……
Passing through the rift gate does not mean you will reach your destination directly.
What lies before my eyes is an endless void of space composed of data and energy.
The dragon maid took out a paintbrush from somewhere and quickly sketched in the air.
With just a few strokes, a ferocious and majestic black dragon broke free from the two-dimensional scroll, transformed into a physical entity, and coiled at the feet of several people.
Everyone landed on the broad and flat dragon's back.
The giant dragon let out a silent roar, and then flew away rapidly in a certain direction in the void.
Along the way, the atmosphere was terribly depressing.
In the end, he crossed his arms and watched the light passing by quickly around him in boredom.
Tao Yao stood quietly at the dragon head, with her back to the crowd, letting the strong wind blow her long hair, wondering what she was thinking.
Yongheng stood at the back of the team, his heart almost jumping out of his throat.
Her gaze always drifted uncontrollably towards Taoyao's back.
The figure from behind looked so frail, yet it brought her a heavy pressure like a mountain.
Do you want……
Go over now and confess to her?
Taking the initiative to admit your mistakes may help you gain some forgiveness.
Once this thought arises, it can no longer be suppressed.
Cold sweat broke out on Yongheng's palms, and he was about to lift his foot.
But he saw Zhongmo, who was standing next to Taoyao, suddenly turned around and gave him a look full of warning and hostility.
That gaze seemed to say: Do you dare to disturb her?
Eternal's footsteps froze in place for a moment.
The damn end.
This guy is like Taoyao's personal bodyguard, never leaving her side.
With her around, there was no chance for a private conversation.
But if you don’t say...
If we allow this thorn to remain in Taoyao's heart, the consequences will probably be even more serious.
How to do?
In the end how to do?
Countless thoughts collided wildly in Yongyong's mind, causing her to fall into unprecedented entanglement and torment.
She felt like a fish on a chopping board, helplessly waiting, not knowing when the knife called "judgment" would fall.
……
This extremely long journey for eternity has finally come to an end.
When the black dragon passed through the last layer of space barrier, a dreamlike scene appeared before its eyes.
The endless sea of pink flowers stretches to the end of the world.
The air is filled with refreshing fragrance.
In the center of the sea of flowers, stands a small and exquisite wooden house quietly.
This is the kingdom of God, the place of origin.
The giant dragon slowly descended, and the moment it touched the ground, it turned into a point of light and disappeared.
Yongheng still didn't find the opportunity to speak.
And Taoyao seemed to have completely forgotten that matter.
As soon as she returned to this familiar place, she relaxed completely.
Entering the cabin, she didn't even bother to take off her shoes. She threw herself heavily into the soft sofa and let out a sigh of contentment.
The dragon maid's figure changed and turned into a human form again.
She walked to the kitchen door very consciously and spoke respectfully.
"My Lords, I will go and prepare dinner."
In the end, he took out the game controller from under the TV cabinet as if he was presenting a treasure, and handed it to Taoyao.
"Yuanchu, do you want to play a game?"
Tao Yao lay on the sofa, too lazy to even open her eyes, and just waved her hands weakly.
"forget it."
"I want to take a break."
After being rejected, a hint of disappointment flashed across his face, but he didn't say much.
She retracted the handle, then as if she suddenly remembered something, turned around and looked at Yongheng, who had been silent since she entered the door.
This is completely different from his gentle attitude towards Taoyao.
Her face was full of dissatisfaction and provocation.
"Hey!"
She pointed her chin at the other handle in her hand with an extremely bad attitude.
"Do you want to come?"
Eternal thoughts were interrupted.
She looked at Zhongmo's face which was full of "Come and fight me", and then looked at Taoyao who seemed to have fallen asleep on the sofa.
Right now, there is really no opportunity to be alone with Taoyao.
Instead of dwelling on it and suffering...
It’s better to find something else to do first.
She gritted her teeth and forced an equally provocative smile on her face.
"Come on, come on!"
"I luckily let you draw last time, but this time, let's see if I can give you a hard time!"
As she said that, she strode over, snatched the handle, and sat down on the sofa opposite the end.
A new war is about to break out in the game world.
And on the sofa.
Tao Yao, who seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, was actually still conscious.
She is communicating with the system.
"Xiaoxiao, how is it?"
"My performance this time should be okay, right?"
Tao Yao's consciousness said to the system elf with a hint of seeking credit.
"It perfectly proves the presence of the little fox and I."
"It also elevates the importance of the little fox."
"And there are also some riddles. When this version goes online, some of them will be left for players to imagine."
A moment later, the system elf's small voice sounded in her mind.
【Master, your performance is good. 】
【only……】
【Will it ruin the character? 】
[And with so little screen time...will the players be dissatisfied?]
Hearing the little worry, Tao Yao chuckled in her mind.
"Ruining the character?"
"No, no, no, I'm not destroying my image. I'm just changing myself a little bit."
"Fairies grow too, don't they?"
"This way, we can leave enough room for players' imaginations, allowing them to better imagine what I went through during the time I was taken away by the End."
"As for the lack of screen time..."
Taoyao's tone became matter-of-fact.
"This time, I originally wanted to appear with Little Fox, consolidate my identity as Little Fox, and at the same time, elevate Little Fox's status."
"As long as the goal is achieved."
"Besides, I haven't appeared in the plot for so long, there has to be a gradual process."
"A glimpse of a beauty leaves endless suspense, which gives players enough room for imagination."
【…】
【Master, as long as you are happy. 】
Xiaoxiao seemed convinced, or perhaps just gave up arguing.
Tao Yao changed to a more comfortable position, curled up on the sofa with her consciousness, and suddenly asked about an important matter.
"That's right, Xiaoxiao."
"What version has Leprechaun Journey been updated to on the player side?"
Although Taoyao is now in the world of "Fairy Journey" and possesses authority almost like that of a creator.
But she has her own life.
Players also have their own lives.
This world and the games in reality are like two parallel rivers, reflecting each other but flowing on their own.
As for the version updates of "Fairy Journey", Taoyao can only influence and guide by consuming popularity points, and cannot control it thoroughly and completely.
All she can do is edit the "plot" clips she directed into the game's update package at the right time.
【Report to the master.】
A small response soon rang out.
[The game has now been updated to version 3.6, and is preparing for version 3.7 update and maintenance. ]
[However, the main plot perspectives of these versions are basically placed on Jasmine and the Mechanical City.]
【For players, a lot of map content has been updated, as well as some interesting new characters. 】
[However, this is basically a period of long-term growth.]
After all, the game's main storyline hasn't progressed much, and most players are complaining that the development team has run out of ideas.
"The grass is growing..."
Taoyao's consciousness tapped his chin with his finger.
"That's just right."
"This part of my storyline will be placed at the end of version 3.7."
"Use popularity to influence the direction of the plot."
"To pave the way for the upcoming 4.0 version."
She seemed to have made a decision, and then asked another question.
"By the way, how is Feiying doing now?"
【…】
Xiaoxiao was silent for a moment, as if retrieving relevant data.
[Xiao Feiying is currently trying to heal the final wound and restore her own fairy power.]
【It’s just that she is really too stupid. 】
The recovery process is very limited.
[The wound left on her body by the end has not yet been completely healed...]
"That's it..."
Taoyao's consciousness fell into a brief period of thought.
Feiying's progress was slower than she expected.
I originally wanted to wait until Feiying recovered her full strength before starting the next stage of the plan.
It now seems that plans need to be brought forward.
"Um……"
"Then there's no need to wait."
"It's been so long since I appeared in the game, players are almost forgetting about me."
"The subsequent versions of 4.0 should indeed be a big deal."
Taoyao's thoughts were filled with a determination that left no room for questioning.
Xiaoxiao keenly caught something.
[Master, have you already thought about harvesting the players' popularity? ]
"That's it."
Taoyao did not deny it.
“There’s a simple script structure.”
Her consciousness sat up straight in the mental space, with the excitement of a director explaining his ideas to a producer.
"Xiaoxiao, look."
"I opened the goddess' treasure chest."
"Now I have obtained the goddess's crown."
"Doesn't this mean that, according to normal logic, I should be getting closer and closer to divinity, rather than humanity?"
"So, I plan to play the villain boss in the entire 4.0 version."
"Let the players encounter the true, complete original fairy."
Taoyao's plan is simple yet crazy.
She will personally take action and become the highest and most insurmountable mountain in front of the players and the protagonists.
The tiny data core seemed to freeze for a moment because of this overly explosive news.
【ah? ! 】
[Master, this...isn't this too fast?]
[You are now the final boss, what will happen to the rest of the story? ]
"Not too fast."
Taoyao had already considered this.
"After all, there is me, the end, and eternity."
"If the three of us take turns to be the boss in order."
"At least we can drag the plot to version 6.0."
Her tone was calm and objective, as if she was planning the life cycle of a product.
"As for the finale, she is far from her strongest yet, and her mind is not mature enough. She is not suitable to appear as a boss, and she lacks the sense of oppression."
"Eternal is quite suitable. She has both scheming and strength, but... players may not be able to defeat her. She strikes hard and could easily kill the protagonists, causing the game to end prematurely."
“So, at this stage.”
Taoyao's analysis is well-organized.
“From the perspective of the players and the game’s protagonists.”
"It has a certain strength, making it difficult to beat, but at the same time not completely unbeatable."
"And then it's suitable to be a boss for experience packs."
"It's just me."
There was a sly smile in her thoughts.
"It is precisely because they are the original that they have the possibility of winning."
"Isn't it?"
Xiaoxiao was stunned for several seconds because of Taoyao's earth-shattering idea.
After a brief silence, Xiao Xiao finally spoke:
[Master...are you serious?]
There was a tremor of disbelief in the small voice.
[Playing the villain boss? Or the entire 4.0 version?]
【But we have spent a lot of effort to clear your name.】
[Now you're the villain again, isn't this a bit strange? ?]
The little worries are not groundless.
In the game "Leprechaun Journey",
Taoyao was suspected of being a fan-driven black fan from the very beginning, and has not been very popular until now.
After operating for several versions, its popularity has remained at the top of the list, even leading by a large margin.
She is the white moonlight in the hearts of countless players, and the most mysterious, gentle and powerful guide in the plot.
Every time she appears, she triggers a tsunami of discussion in the player community.
Now, this goddess in the eyes of all players actually said that she wanted to be a villain?
Although it's not impossible.
But it was only recently that he was cleared of his villain identity.
Now he's the villain again.
My little brain was a little confused for a moment.
