The game has started, there are absolutely no bugs this time

Chapter 197 Ghost Tokyo: Me, Fighting Black Myth? Really?

All of the above Dihua ideas happened in an instant.

From Xiangzi's perspective, it's as if Gu Meng teleported in and then, like a god descending to earth, quickly knocked out the Toyokawa family.

"So, the Dragon King is actually Superman!"

"Amazing."

Toyokawa Shoko didn't even know what she was saying.

Even ghosts probably wouldn't know what she was saying.

So much has happened, even more exciting than Kasuga Kage in the future timeline, that Mother Chicken's worldview has been completely destroyed.

But in any case, it seems we can finally relax for now.

……

Gu Meng glanced in the rearview mirror and saw Xiangzi holding Ruoye Mu tightly.

The two girls huddled together in a small ball, and tears still clung to Xiangzi's eyelashes; today's events were a devastating blow to her.

The darkness within the Toyokawa family is truly terrifying.

From Gu Meng's perspective, she was just an ordinary girl at heart.

To be honest, compared to Xiangzi, the key figure in the scrapped case and the protagonist of the final version of the Mother Chicken Card, Ruoye Mu is actually more attractive to Gu Meng now.

"This kind of spirit, genius... no, like a monster like me, is not a human mental state at all. It's just a temporarily fixed personality right now... It's definitely abnormal. Could there really be extraordinary people in this world?"

Gu Meng was frightened by Ruo Ye Mu. He wasn't afraid of the girl. Although the girl's spirit was completely different from that of a normal person, at least dozens or even hundreds of times stronger, it was still within the broad category of humanity. Take You Xuan as an example. Before Xiao Zhi was developed, his total mental capacity was already dozens of times that of a normal person. After being developed, he became even more inhuman.

In other words, his main area for improvement is gaming; if he were given an extraordinary path, he would have already taken off.

Gu Meng could see that although Ruo Ye Mu had undergone a mental mutation, she did not actually possess very high-level power, and was far inferior to the developed You Xuan Jin Card.

He simply felt a sudden sense of alienation from the world he thought he knew.

It turns out that besides gaming experts, there really are other special cases.

Then I got a little excited.

Human instincts (referring to fear and curiosity, not perversion; Gu Meng likes mature women) reappeared in him.

Time passed quickly, and soon they arrived at the resettlement site.

“The penthouse suite is empty.” The tablet in the car lit up. “The housekeeping robot has already set up the room. You know, our Youxuan smart housekeeping is especially convenient.”

This was an additional byproduct. Gu Meng's original intention in creating the AI ​​was to make games and provide more feedback to NPCs, but the gold cards collected in the branch offices were naturally used for other things.

In other words, they are domestic robots. Their functions are not as powerful as those of robots in science fiction works with a space setting, but they are still futuristic in style. Theoretically, they should not appear in 2026.

Gu Meng acted as a technology accelerator.

If things had developed for another ten or twenty years in the previous life, it would probably have been the same.

It can even make cars and perform intelligent driving, and it's already at a level where it can drive better than humans and can be fully automated. The Yuxuan SU7 is about to be released, which is hilarious.

"Mr. Gu, I didn't expect you to come in person!"

Actually, it was a clone, but Gu Meng didn't say that.

The person who came was Duanmu, the head of the Dongying branch, a senior cadre of the first generation of Youxuan, and a congenital gold card holder.

This guy is actually quite versatile. Although he doesn't have any real superpowers, he has a lot of skills. Business is his main job, and he also has special agent skills such as infiltration and combat.

Duanmu has recently developed a habit of instinctively using the combat power detector disguised as glasses to check Gu Meng and stop in time, otherwise the glasses will definitely explode.

As Gu Meng swiped his card to open the private elevator, Xiangzi suddenly grabbed his sleeve: "That man with the gold-rimmed glasses came here yesterday." Her lips were pale. "He might be following me too."

"I asked him to keep an eye on you."

Gu Meng gestured to Xiao Xiang not to worry too much, as this was already his territory.

"The bathroom is heated, so I can shower anytime, and there are new pajamas in the closet."

Gu Meng pushed open the oak door, and Xiangzi sat down with his younger sister in his arms. Ruo Ye Mu looked a little worried, but in reality, she was too calm, and her attitude towards Gu Meng seemed like an act.

This person really has a problem.

After making arrangements for the follow-up, Gu Meng temporarily withdrew the spiritual entity from Japan.

……

Gu Meng was also somewhat afraid of the Toyokawa family's powerful influence.

What if we disturb the octopus god whose limits are unknown? Wouldn't that be game over?

So after much deliberation, Gu Meng made his decision.

Tell Guo Jia to have them conduct the investigation using only mortals.

Of course, he wouldn't directly say that there might be an evil god over there, or that he himself is a superhuman.

He doesn't want to destroy the game-centric worldview here.

Ultimately, he wasn't sure what the Toyokawa family's situation was. What if it was just a series of coincidences or the influence of his own time travel? They might just be an ordinary zaibatsu (financial conglomerate).

Guo Jia was told that the Toyokawa family was hiding a dark side, and that You Xuan had some conflicts with them in Japan, so he hoped Guo Jia would investigate.

This is not a lie.

Because the Japanese branch is competing with the Toyokawa family for the girl, and both sides are working at roughly the same pace, but because You Xuanfang has superhuman combat power and is a projection of Teacher Da Meng's spirit, and because Duanmu and other overseas executives also possess the skills of human martial arts masters and super soldiers, the Toyokawa family definitely cannot win without extraordinary power.

The girls were temporarily placed with Yu Gen in Japan.

Gu Meng hesitated about whether to bring them to China.

Ultimately, Gu Meng had never seen an evil god. If it was truly terrifying, placing the girl in Japan would at least provide a buffer.

Yeah, I was just scaring myself.

……

The Toyokawa family home, a rebuilt old house.

The elders looked at each other.

Good news! Based on the reactions to this operation, it seems there really are superhumans involved.

The bad news is that the enemy is far too powerful in terms of strength, influence, and status.

That Dragon King was clearly an extraordinary being. Even though he was like that, why did everyone seem to be blinded by a single leaf? Why didn't anyone believe he was extraordinary before he revealed himself?

Damn it, this guy has the kind of world-class hypnotic ability that's in X-Men, no, it might even be stronger than Doctor X's.

What should I do? Will this guy kill me? This god-like being... Ugh, is it too late to back out now?

They had no choice but to perform a haphazard ritual without offerings, based on the discarded case they had collected, hoping that some octopus-like evil god beyond the mortal realm could cross dimensions and save them.

……

On the other hand, after telling Guo Jia about this, Gu Meng felt that there was no need to worry too much.

The world has been peaceful for so long, and those extraordinary things that Bangbang talks about are probably just him scaring himself.

Under normal circumstances, it's at most low magic or micro magic, just like how a gaming master's worldview has an innate SSR super worker.

That's about it. Right now, Mother Chicken Card and the ten girls from Mygo are all under my control while traveling in Japan.

Then the Toyokawa family was also under close surveillance. As for myself, who is suspected to be the only extraordinary being in the current version, I shouldn't have any problems as long as I don't interfere too much.

I will not move until the enemy is immovable.

Even if an evil god were to descend, Brother Tongzi would definitely warn himself.

Even if we take a step back and assume that the evil god is actually incredibly powerful, a multiverse-level existence, far stronger than ordinary superdimensional beings, to the point that even the system's detection can't reach it, then it can just give up struggling and be eliminated when it's discovered.

Never mind him, let's play the game first.

By continuously playing games and collecting wishes, one can welcome the arrival of what may be the will of a world or the main storyline of a plane, and naturally become a god, just like the God of Cookery.

Gu Meng had a premonition that once he had collected all the wishes and created a truly advanced stealth game, this world might be "completed," and he might begin the next chapter of his story. If this were a novel, it would be the end of his story as the "protagonist."

So let's get back to the main storyline.

Thanks to frequent promotion and high expectations, Black Myth has progressed at a speed far exceeding what Youxuan (the game developer) had imagined. It has been completed and is ready to go on sale.

……

The previous three Nintendo games had different endings. Star Trek was a complete disaster, and Speed ​​Drifters suffered a backlash from public opinion and was also beaten down by Rupert Hobbiton's games.

Tokyo, the last ghost, is the hope of the entire village.

The result was mixed reviews, but overall it was alright. Now, whatever we can make is what we can.

Ren Ni doesn't ask for much; just not losing too much is a win.

Unfortunately, this small wish was shattered.

Without any warning, Yuxuan released the final PV for Black Myth and set a release date.

Ghost Tokyo and Ni Ni 1 will face off against the parallel world's Black Myth and Yu Xuan 2 helmet plus experience pod, which have been epically optimized by Universe.

Barbie Q is now.

Is this really "Ghost Tokyo: I'm Fighting Black Myth?"

What's the point of fighting? Ren Ni's mentality completely collapsed after the last three generals were defeated. He didn't even want to do the interview anymore. There's no way to fight like this.

It was already absurd enough that you guys released new PVs so frequently; I overestimated your speed, but I still underestimated it.

As a result, I was rushing as fast as I could, hoping not to be hit and killed by the second-generation You Xuan, but I still managed to run into him.

If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have worked so hard before.

Sigh, all that effort for nothing.

……

The original final version of the PV was supposed to be the one with the Rebirth Mantra, but Gu Meng had already released it during the Maodou Exhibition to showcase various transformations.

The CG of the Four Heavenly Kings was already shown using holographic projection at the very beginning of the Edamame exhibition.

The final version here is—

Everyone knows that immortals are good, but they can't forget fame and fortune.

Where are the generals and ministers of ancient and modern times? Their graves are now just mounds of overgrown grass.

Do you also want to be an immortal?
……

Master, do you think there are more good people or bad people in this world?

There are many good people here.

Why is the world never peaceful, and why do evil people always run rampant?

Because indiscriminate kindness is not kindness, but an accomplice to evil. To use drastic measures while displaying a compassionate heart—this is your destiny.

……

Heaven's will, Heaven's will; obediently follow Heaven's commands. Those old fogies, their names are rather fitting.

Is my clan's destiny to be wiped out and exterminated?

There is no such thing as destiny; it's all about greed.

Once I peel off your face, I'll go and be a chosen one for a bit!

What's the point of becoming a god? Aren't you still the same, fighting and killing, making a fool of yourself?

……

Do you still want this destiny?
……

The PV started by borrowing the "Song of the Good Life" from Dream of the Red Chamber. The middle part seemed to be about how the chosen one uses ruthless means to reveal the compassion of a bodhisattva, which is one of the righteous spirits represented by Sun Wukong in Journey to the West. However, the previous life was not directly reflected in the game.

The chosen one is simply someone who can only choose to dip beans, and will inevitably kill some seemingly harmless leaders along the way. This gives the impression that the chosen one is someone who cannot distinguish between good and evil, and doesn't even have a kind heart, haha.

This is an area that needs optimization in the Youxuan version, giving players more choices.

Even those who want to collect everything can kill everyone in their first playthrough and then rescue them in their second playthrough to understand the story. Defeating them without killing them or rescuing them through missions will also unlock achievements and Shadow God images.

It won't say that you have to kill many NPCs to see the story and get achievements.

Of course, killing everyone is fine; the game doesn't force players to make choices, it's just a game.

The first part of the PV ends with an interpretation of the different NPCs' destinies, and also shows that destiny isn't necessarily a good thing.

It may not be a true destiny or mandate of heaven; it could be a conspiracy by the Heavenly Court using the name of destiny.

The first part is the in-game scenes, while the final PV's second part is live-action footage.

……

The flowers in the forest have faded their spring redness, too quickly. Helpless is the cold rain in the morning and the wind in the evening.

Tears like rouge, lingering in drunken revelry, when will we meet again? Life is inherently filled with endless regrets, like water flowing eastward forever.

The younger, handsome guy from Qingdao, who was using technical skills, put down his book of lyrics.

If you take a screenshot of the page where it stops, you'll see the endless regrets of life.

Opposite Jiao Enjun was Gu Meng.

Gu Meng's knuckles struck the tempered glass tabletop, creating cracks that viewers might mistake for special effects, but it was actually filmed live.

"It seems that General Manager Yang is determined to oppose me."

Jiao Enjun smiled, loosened his suit jacket, and slowly opened his third golden eye on his forehead: "What do you think?"

Gu Meng's pen first deformed, then expanded—this is a special effect. Breaking tempered glass with his bare hands could be explained by his innate superhuman strength, but transforming it into a Ruyi Jingu Bang (a magical staff) is too far-fetched—a dark golden light condensed in his palm, forming the Ruyi Jingu Bang, with patterns spreading along its body.

"hehe."

Gu Meng didn't say anything more; he was already in a state of readiness to fight.

Dark clouds churned outside the French windows. Erlang Shen had changed his armor before anyone knew it. Gu Meng's appearance hadn't changed much yet, but he already looked somewhat like a monkey.

There are absolutely no traces of special effects in the changes to his appearance. It's clear that You Xuan has some kind of advanced technology, not that Gu Meng twisted his own body to create this effect.

The filming location was actually much more lively, but since the film was shot by Youxuan Group, most of the people on set were employees of Maodou Pictures, so no one found it strange.

Jiao Enjun also felt that he hadn't filmed in a long time, and he was surprised to find that the technology on film sets is so advanced now.

……

"You mischievous monkey!"

Lightning shot from Erlang Shen's third eye on his forehead, and his three-pointed, double-edged sword cleaved the conference table in two, turning the financial statements into snowflakes in the fierce wind.

"What the Heavenly Court wants—" The blade grazed Gu Meng's ear and embedded itself in the load-bearing column, the concrete and steel reinforcement groaning, "Never misses!"

Gu Mengxuan kicked the curtain wall glass, shattering it, and a golden light flashed in his hand: "Take this from Old Sun!"

The two clashed weapons, creating a burst of brilliant light.

The image of Erlang Shen stands tall and upright, while the phantom of the Celestial Hound howls towards the sky.

Gu Meng ripped his custom-made suit to shreds, his phoenix-winged purple-gold crown pierced the ceiling, and his lotus-silk cloud-walking shoes shattered the floor tiles, revealing a golden chainmail armor on his naked body.

"boom!"

The glass curtain wall of the entire Twin Towers shattered simultaneously, and golden rod shadows and silver blade energy tore apart the main body of the building.

In the PV, the headquarters of Yugen exploded.

Next came the release information for the game, helmet, and demo pods.

……
