You said you were going to make games, how did you become the richest man without doing anything?

Chapter 238 Time Corridor Puzzle (2 in 1 Order)

In the game, John looked at the ancient clock in the room, the hour hand and minute hand were intertwined with each other, like a maze.

There are five clocks hanging on the surrounding walls, each showing a different time.

This was the first time G-chan faced such a unique puzzle, and he muttered to himself:
"Well, just as the letter says, maybe by adjusting these clocks to the same time, we can activate the portal."

G still remembers that the letter mentioned 12 o'clock midnight.

However, as soon as she adjusted the clock hands to this time, the hands of other clocks seemed to move accordingly.

For example, when the first dial is turned clockwise for 1 hour, the third dial will go back 2 hours.

When you turn the second dial, the fourth dial will also change.

"How is this going?"

She suddenly understood that these clocks did not exist independently, but were interconnected like a complex web, where any move could affect the entire body.

The barrage complained: "It's not that easy."

G-chan fell into deep thought, and the ticking of a clock seemed to echo in the silence of the mysterious cafe.

"Everyone, I've come up with a good idea. Let's just use force to defeat skill and use exhaustive method to solve the problem!"

She followed the first operation and began to press other buttons. After the clock hands spun around for a while, the five clocks suddenly began to make ancient clicking sounds at the same time.

"Could it be that I guessed it right?" A hint of anticipation emerged in G-chan's heart.

However, the clock hands suddenly began to spin counterclockwise wildly, zila zila zila!

A bolt of lightning shot out from the clock face and hit G-chan.

The character's health bar dropped by one third.

The barrage of music:

"Hahaha, little meat bun is so stupid."

"How could the game designer give you the chance to deceive me?"

G-chan pouted, refusing to admit defeat, and fell into a chaotic cycle, trying again and again, and failing again and again.

Every time she thought she had found a breakthrough, the hands of the clock would reverse again as if mocking her.

Comment: "There are five clock faces in total, and the scale on each face is measured in minutes. Using exhaustive enumeration, it will take forever to find them."

There might be some math experts in the barrage who couldn't stand it anymore and left suggestions in the barrage. G-chan tried each dial one by one, and then the barrage experts recorded it and established an equation to solve it.

Finally, after a simple calculation, G-chan readjusted the clock face according to the instructions of the barrage boss.

After the settings were completed, there was a slight "click" sound, and the hands of all the clocks stopped for a moment, as if waiting for something.

G-chan saw the character's shadow appear on the clock, and this shadow also appeared synchronously on the other four clocks.

They all point to the same scale.

"12:00!" G-chan was ecstatic.
Suddenly, the ancient clock in the middle of the room emitted a dazzling light.

There are new changes in the light door behind the coffee bar.

The barrage began to praise:
"G-chan is the queen of puzzle solving! She cracked this clock puzzle in seconds!"

"Good boy, aren't you asking for help from the audience outside the stadium?"

"Being able to ask for help from the audience is a skill, and even if you are wrong, you still feel strong.jpg."

"I was almost knocked unconscious by the clock. The guy who could solve it is really amazing!"

……

G-chan manipulates John to continue solving the next puzzle.

During the day, the spectra of the twelve zodiac signs appeared on the outer wall of the cafe, and now these spectra are becoming brighter.

John stared at the constellation map, next to which were some scattered, shuffled star buttons.

John needs to press the corresponding buttons in a certain order according to the position of the stars on the constellation map to awaken the pattern on the transmission light gate.

She first carefully studied the constellation map. The positions of the stars formed a curve. It seemed complicated, but in fact there was a certain order hidden.

"Let me see, first of all it's Aries..."

G-chan tapped the pattern, and the stars lit up, emitting a melodious melody.

However, the distribution of this star track is significantly different from the constellation pattern next to it.
"This is actually finding the differences within a time limit. I'm familiar with this. My dynamic vision is perfect!"

The first Aries is very easy to deal with.
However, the following constellations are not so easy.

G-chan discovered that depending on the pattern of each constellation, there are strict requirements on the timing and strength of pressing the button.

Each game presents a unique challenge, as if there is some invisible connection between the stars. This is not a simple map-based game, but a game that tests your hand speed and adaptability.

After all, G-chan is the UP host in the game area, his fingers dance and he madly taps the keyboard. He seems to have transformed into a conductor.

As more and more constellations were completed, G-chan felt unprecedented resistance, and the arrangement of the constellations became complex and mysterious.

As the last star lit up, the pattern on the constellation map froze in an instant. A beam of light emanated from the center, and the portal changed again.

A gentle breeze blew across my face, and the whole room seemed to tremble.

Barrage:

"Damn, little meat bun is pretty good. All those FPS games were not played in vain."

"The gameplay design of this puzzle is far more complex than the original version of Cat Girl Paradise. It seems that the level design level of Taoyuan Township is constantly improving."

……

After completing the second puzzle, G-chan continued to work hard to solve it.

Turning to the next room, he this time found a huge puzzle of light and shadow.

The room was filled with a mysterious atmosphere, and the lights on the walls cast all kinds of strange shapes.

In the center of the room, there is a huge puzzle area with gray and white puzzle pieces covering the floor.

She looked around and found four switches on the wall that controlled the light sources. The position and intensity of these lights could be adjusted, while the puzzle pieces on the floor corresponded to a large image.

This is a puzzle of light and shadow.

G-chan cleverly used light sources and projection devices to bring these fragmented light and shadows together to form a complete pattern.

But this is not easy, because this light and shadow pattern uses the principle of "visual deception".

Many overlapping geometric shapes will cause players to misunderstand their true positional relationships.

G-chan rubbed his hands in preparation, manipulating the position of the light source so that the shape projected on the ground matched the fragments.

During this process, she sometimes needs to adjust the brightness of the light, and sometimes needs to change the angle of the fragments.

After actually starting to play, G-chan found that it was not easy, because the shapes and sizes of the fragments varied greatly and required precise arrangement.

The audience in the live broadcast room gradually immersed themselves in this unique puzzle game, and gave G-chan tips and suggestions.

Sometimes, when she thought she had completed the puzzle, the light and shadow would collapse due to a tiny mismatch, and she would have to rethink, disrupt all the light sources, and readjust them.

After playing for more than ten minutes, G-chan's head was covered with fine sweat, but she still couldn't solve the puzzle successfully.

At this moment, a viewer in the barrage suggested: "Why don't we go to the bookshelf and take a look, maybe there are some clues?"

G-chan returned to the cabinet where the books were kept and reopened the book. Sure enough, on the page introducing the light and shadow puzzle, he found a line of words:

"What you see is not what you get"

The barrage of comments have turned into Sherlock Holmes:

"Does this hint mean that we were heading in the wrong direction from the beginning?"

"But the problem is, there are only those projection devices in the room, nothing else."

“So will the problem be on the ground?”

After all, three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang. Following everyone's suggestions, G-chan returned to the room to check the ground.

Sure enough, she discovered that the puzzle on the ground was not a simple flat surface, but had ups and downs.

But because of the camouflage caused by the checkered pattern on the floor, she didn't notice it at first.

The barrage of comments exclaimed: "Wow, this place is so cleverly designed, the art decoration and level design are perfectly combined." G-chan returned to the console and adjusted the height of the light source one by one. When the light was projected to different heights, the puzzle pieces underwent wonderful changes.

Finally, when the last puzzle piece fell into place, the whole room was filled with dazzling light.

Behind the counter of the cafe outside, the outline of the portal was clearly visible, emitting a faint blue light.

"The only thing left is one last puzzle. Charge the portal, and then we can go behind it."

G-chan rubbed his hands excitedly, and the comments on the forums were encouraging: "Come on, little meat bun, go for it!"

……

Next, G-chan arrived at the Plant Magic Room. Upon entering, she was stunned by the vibrant colors of the plant life. The room was filled with the fragrance of fresh flowers, as if she had entered a mysterious garden.

John noticed a special piece of land in the center of the room, dotted with five kinds of exotic plants: Datura, Firefly, Ice Fruit, Dragon Tail, and Doll Flower...

According to the tips that G saw in the rule book, each plant has its own specific needs and requires reasonable watering and fertilization.

She began experimenting with props, trying to figure out the characteristics of each plant.

The results showed that some plants prefer sunlight, some prefer shade; some need plenty of water, while others require more fertilizer. There is also a delicate symbiotic relationship between plants. If you don't take care of them all within a period of time, the entire plant will wither.

After playing for so long, I finally found some elements of action games.

With a gentle wave of her hand, a surge of vibrant magic flowed into the plant's roots.

Under her care, the first plant made a cheerful sound of growth.

Then she turned to the second plant and with a quick slide of her keyboard and mouse, water began to bathe the plant's roots.

Then, the third, fourth, fifth...

After all, with his previous experience playing a lot of action games, G-chan completed the level quickly.

The five plants began to glow faintly, and gradually woke up with the rhythm of the notes, forming a pentagram magic circle.

The magic circle instantly released powerful energy. Her eyes lit up, and the portal quietly opened amidst the colorful light and shadow of plants.

The comments started to go crazy:

"As expected of a little meat bun, well done!"

"Oh my god, that puzzle corridor just now was so awesome. I was already so nervous and excited just watching it, let alone playing it myself."

"Has Taoyuan Township poached all the level designers from major international companies?"

G-chan stepped into the portal without saying a word.

……

Everyone was shocked when they saw the scene behind the portal.

This fantastical space in another world is like a giant coffee cup, filled with the alluring aroma of coffee.

Spots of light float in the air, sometimes turning into cat paws, sometimes forming patterns of coffee cups.

The air is filled with coffee mist of various flavors, including the sweetness of latte, the freshness of American coffee, and the richness of espresso.

In this wonderful ocean of coffee, John saw a floating island with a huge cat climbing frame. On the climbing frame, cats were leisurely basking in the sun, scratching each other and making bursts of cat purring sounds.

In the center of the island is a unique coffee fountain, from which gushes out not water, but coffee of various flavors. G-chan happily walked over and found that he could use his own cup to collect the coffee.

I originally thought it was just a decorative effect for the scene, but unexpectedly, a new item soon appeared in G-chan's backpack:
[Call of the Other World·Cat's Tea Coffee Coupon·1]

[Note: Use the QR code of this coupon to scan it at Maozhiming and receive a free American iced latte.]

The barrage refreshes the screen:

"What the hell? What does that mean? Can I get free items in real life if they drop in the game?"

"So, there really is a place called Cat's Tea in reality?"

A student near Jianghai University Town left a message in the barrage:

"It seems to be a cat cafe near the pedestrian street of our school."

G-chan put away the coupon and said with a smile, "In that case, I have to find time to check in offline."

In the distant sky, a huge coffee vortex is floating, as if the whole world is wrapped in the magic of coffee.

As G-chan moved, she felt as if she was in a fairy tale wonderland of cats and coffee.

The comments were praised:

"This scene is even more beautiful than I imagined! It's like entering a cat paradise!"

"The visuals in this game are incredible. The fusion of coffee and catgirls is so creative!"

“The art team is so dedicated, every frame is a painting!”

"This otherworldly scene is truly a visual feast!"

……

A moment later, John stood deep in the maze, and two cat girls, Kamisama and Ayaka, appeared in front of him.

He asked bluntly, "Where is Illya? Why did you take our companion away?"

At this time, Ke Meng chuckled and gently comforted John:

"Mr. John, you don't have to worry too much. Our goal is not to "catch" cat girls, but to protect them."

There was a warmth in the corners of her smiling mouth, which soothed John's tension.

Linghua and Kemeng looked at each other, as if they had made up their minds, and said with a calm expression:

"Let me introduce myself to you again. Kamui and I are the 'Time Menders'.

You should have noticed that we are not the natives of "this world".
There is a primitive and dark existence. The nightmare it created caused the distortion of time and space, so Cat Ming was forced to be teleported here.

"The existence of this evil nightmare disrupts the original timeline,"

Kamui's voice was like music in the night, "We, the Neko no Ming, came to Paradise precisely to investigate this issue."

Linghua continued:
"It seems that He is quite interested in the cat girls who are the inhabitants of the paradise.
Kamen and I were quick to notice that Illya and the other catgirls were trapped in a distorted dream, that the evil nightmare was disturbing their dreams. Only in this other world could we truly protect them.

But we didn't expect that the evil nightmare also invaded here.

We have observed that your companion is being imprisoned by that ancient being in the deepest part of this space-time vortex made of coffee..."

Afterwards, the two cat girls invited John to join their adventure team and head towards the deepest part of this vortex of time and space.

……

After G-chan controlled John to walk forward for a while, he found that this journey to find the cat girl partner was not easy, and the player needed to solve a series of difficulties.

Just as he walked a short distance into the depths of this alien world, John found himself in a land of thunder and lightning.
Arcs of lightning exploded in the sky, and the sound of thunder was like the roar of a dragon, making the entire world seem as if it was under the hands of an angry god.

Huge lightning barriers appeared around her, like irregular electric grids, flashing towards him.

G-chan took a deep breath and said, "Everyone, it seems that the only way to cross this electric fence is to find a pattern."

She used her hand speed to leap forward quickly.

The electric arcs under her feet changed rapidly, and she needed to find a safe landing point before the electric light rose.

At first, the electric flash jumped slowly, as if warming up for the upcoming electric storm.

As the lightning intensified, the speed of the arcs increased rapidly. G-chan was forced to perform difficult consecutive jumps in the blink of an eye, as if performing a challenging dance on the stage.

Just when G-chan thought he had adapted to this dance of thunder and lightning,

Time and space began to distort again, and cracks appeared in the sea of ​​electricity!

She must travel through these space-time rifts, but must keep dodging the electric arcs, or she will be swallowed by the space-time distortion.

"let me help you!"

Kame, the dancing cat girl, began to jump lightly in front to distract some of Raiden's attention.

G-chan finally relieved the pressure, but fell into the darkness in the center of the thunderstorm again and groped forward.

This time, however, Kamui's dance seemed to lack its usual agility, and her shadow became blurred. John had to sense her presence in the darkness to guide him out of it.
