Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

"I see. Well then... please do your best, everyone."

The screen dimmed, then lit up again a few seconds later.

The game starts again.

The audience and players erupted in excited shouts.

Those nearby, unaware of the situation, would be very puzzled looking at the players and viewers watching the live stream.

Some even looked at the players as if they were crazy.

They seriously suspected that these guys might have some kind of mental illness, why were they suddenly yelling and shouting like that?

They didn't understand the excitement of the players and viewers.

Perhaps they will understand in the future; at least for now, the cheers of the players are incomprehensible to outsiders.

But that's also part of the appeal of video games.

It is a power that can inspire people.

This time it's a top-down bullet hell shooter.

What you have to do is constantly dodge the surging barrage of artillery fire.

At first, the machine the girl was controlling exploded in just a few seconds.

But this did not dampen the girl's enthusiasm and excitement.

Come again!

boom!

Come again!

Boom!

Come again!

Boom boom boom!

Each time, the tidal wave of bullet comments would easily tear apart the mech controlled by the girl.

But the girl didn't want to give up.

She wanted to see the real ending.

Is this the end?

After a certain number of deaths, a new text appears on the screen.

That seemed to be a direct question to the players and viewers in front of the screen.

Tears welled up in the girl's eyes, but she gritted her teeth and whispered, "No!"

"That's right! No! Keep it up, streamer!"

"Damn it, I want to play this game too! Tell me where I can play it!"

Even now, there are still people in the audience who were completely indifferent to games before.

But when this exhilarating scene unfolded, they too were infected.

What an enviable battle that was!

For that perfect ending, for that glimmer of hope, we must fight with everything we have to win!

Even if I fail countless times, as long as I win just once!

The girl chose to continue without hesitation.

Was it all in vain?

When the number of deaths reaches a certain number again, a new question arises.

"Of course it wasn't in vain! It was all meaningful!"

The girl gritted her teeth and persevered once again.

At this moment, she had been working on this for a full half hour.

At this moment, she was more focused than ever before.

This is a very repetitive gameplay, the goal of which is to dodge bullets and achieve final victory.

But she was just so persistent.

Do you think this is just a game?

The death toll has reached a new number, and a new text appears on schedule.

This statement is a direct challenge to the players and viewers in front of the screen.

Is this just a game?

No, this may no longer be as simple as a game.

This is a story of relentless striving for perfection!

"So I won't give up!" the girl said again.

……

Is the world meaningless?

"The world has meaning! As long as 2B, 9S, and A2 have a chance to survive, then it has meaning!"

An endless barrage of comments poured down.

No matter how you dodge or attack, it seems impossible to perfectly evade these attacks.

This seems to be something that normal humans cannot do.

And people will eventually get tired.

She maintained this state for almost an hour before her brain began to warn her that she could no longer concentrate like this.

It's time to give up.

But the girl was very unwilling to accept it.

Tears welled up in her eyes.

She was truly willing to do everything in her power to achieve a perfect ending.

She has never been so persistent and patient as she is today.

But the enemy was still so powerful, the barrage of bullets was terrifying, it seemed... there was no way to fight against them.

Is this the end?

The initial question reappeared.

The girl felt somewhat numb.

But her unwillingness to give up made her want to try again.

"Um... how about the streamer takes a break first?"

At this point, some players in the comments section began to express concern for the girl's health.

The girl does look quite tired.

This can't be described as an addiction to the game; it's more like a sense of dissatisfaction, a desire to see a happy ending for them.

The girl wanted to save them.

But...it's really hard to beat...

She didn't read the comments, but numbly clicked "yes" again.

The game continued, but this time, something seemed different.

Because the game didn't start directly from the beginning, but instead presented a new option.

This option is a new message.

"You have received a support package, a support package from 'Sony is great,' would you like to accept it?"

On the screen, the name "Sony is great" was flashing continuously.

"support?"

"Sony is great? I vaguely remember that."

"That...that's the person who contributed the SL technique, isn't it?"

"Wow! How could this happen? Why would another player's name appear in a single-player game?"

"This doesn't seem too surprising. Adding some online data to a game isn't a huge problem, and Yuxing Electronic Entertainment has the capability to do it. But why do this? What exactly does 'support' mean?"

"How about... we try accepting support?"

The girl was also a little confused, but after looking at the support options, she finally chose to accept.

And then, she thought she would never forget that scene.

A protective ring with the words "Sony is great" appeared on the screen.

The arrival of this support also increased the firepower output, making the terrifying barrage seem not so insurmountable after all.

"Wow! What is this?! They're really providing support! There's real support! There's hope! There's still hope! There's still hope that 2B can be brought back to life!"

The audience erupted in excitement once again.

The girl, too, rekindled her hope.

She picked up the handle again and chose to persevere.

After lasting for about ten seconds, the support message titled "Sony is great" suddenly exploded, but then a new pop-up window appeared.

We have received support from 'Microsoft Group'. Would you like to accept it?

"accept!"

Another protective shield protected the girl's body.

"Is this support endless?"
