I'm just an internet cafe owner

What am I thinking!

Shin clenched his fists. This wasn't the time to think about that. This was reality, and what he needed to think about was survival.

But at that moment, BT's voice appeared in his mind once again.

"Believe me!"

"BT?"

He stared incredulously at the core in his hand. The voice was so familiar, and he understood the source of that feeling.

Is BT helping him... to win on the real battlefield?

"I believe in you, and remember to come back."

Shin inserted the entire data core into the machine, and the moment it entered, blue energy invaded it. The core artificial intelligence belonging to the Titan of the game world took over the entire machine and uploaded data to the host computer via the data network.

"what happened?"

The war was over by then, and his teammate Corena arrived in her God of Destruction.

Is there something wrong with this machine?

"No, let's go back."

"Hmm, you seem a bit strange today?"

Xin shook her head: "It's nothing, let's go back."

But just as he was about to leave, Shin suddenly clutched his head. He could hear the Legion's voice, which had been perfectly normal before. But now, a roar erupted from within the Legion.

A chaotic cacophony of sounds, various wails and the sounds of death, and…

Agreement Two…Uphold the mission…

'Agreement 3...protection...'

With a final cry of protection, the army

The information about the group was completely erased from his mind. At the same time, he lost consciousness.

"pungent!!"

"Agreement 1: Connect to the Ironhide. Hi, Shin."

"Hi...BT..."

This was the last sound he could hear and the last reply. He could feel his teammates moving closer to him, and he could connect with his most reliable comrade in the game through his consciousness.

He was brought back by his teammates, and as soon as he returned, he heard the voice of a cute girl in the communication system.

"Control Line One?"

Are you awake?

At this moment, not only 'Control One' but also his teammates excitedly gathered around. Sin shook his head: "I'm fine, I feel great. It was just that the connection... I was just too tired."

"Really? Then you must get some rest, we..."

Shin completely ignored Control One's remarks. Right now, he only cared about one thing: Was BT still there?

"Hello, Shin. I'm here."

This voice was like the most beautiful words to him, even more beautiful than the voice of the girl who sounded nice.

"How's the situation over there?"

"I'm fine. The enemy has cut off data transmission, and I can't take over the enemy's host."

BT could have directly destroyed the host, whose consciousness was partly connected to Shin, and the price for completing the mission was Shin's death. According to the third protocol, it needed to protect the Pilot. Therefore, it first severed the link between Shin and the host, and then hacked into the host's program.

However, the first step caused the main program to detect the anomaly, and the physical system rejected BT's connection. Although it could not effectively damage the main program, BT managed to seize a crucial production line before the other party could react.

It seized a production facility and, by manipulating the Legion's drones, altered the production lines within the facility. Now, the factory will no longer produce drones, but rather Vanguard Titans.

According to BT's calculations, the best way to protect the Pilot is to build Titans.

Production can be completed in a month using this production line. The most important aspect of Titan production isn't the machine itself, but rather the intelligent system that makes it move. However, the machine uses a lot of materials, so the price seems a bit high to internet cafe members.

Because drone production has ceased and the main program has become wary of BT, it has become very difficult for BT to hack into the main program. The Legion's main program has physically isolated all signal transmissions within the factory area where BT is located, rejecting all signal inputs within that area.

Physically isolated, no hacker can break into the computer.

But the main program shouldn't try to do anything to it. Even if BT is just an ordinary pioneer-level Titan AI, its program firewall as a cosmic technology AI is far superior to that of ordinary planetary AI.

Physical attacks? The Legion's drones won't have much impact on BT; their AI systems aren't as advanced as BT's. They'll prioritize eliminating other nations while protecting themselves.

As long as BT doesn't take any unnecessary actions, it won't be surrounded and attacked. Without being surrounded, BT will have enough time to develop. Moreover, although it transmits signals outwards, the channels exclusively for BT and Shin can be used to hide the connection. At the same time, BT can also intercept the other side's commands and know the other side's movement trajectory, providing intelligence for Shin.

Compared to before, the intelligence analyzed by BT is more efficient and easier to use, and he no longer has to endure those unsettling voices.

Chapter 204 Even Old Men Want to Build BTs

Compared to the struggling newcomers, the veterans are much more relaxed.

The Vanguard Titan is the only Titan model available for purchase after completing the game. Subsequent weapons and Titans must be unlocked and purchased through PvP and accumulating significant combat experience.

The appearance of Titans is shocking to newcomers and a pleasant surprise to veterans.

Especially Fujimaru Kaori, her mouth watered uncontrollably when she saw it.

"BT, my BT, I'm going to have you today!"

If this were an anime, Gudako's heart would probably jump out of her eyes.

Having just joined the internet cafe, she couldn't afford this thing; at the time, she only had 100,000 yen on her. But after experiencing six singularities, Fujimaru Kaori was practically rolling in money. Not only did she cover the internet fees for the entire Chaldea combat team, but she had also saved over 3 million yen for herself.

It's not Japanese yen, it's the money from the internet cafe.

There was nothing they could do. It was all because Fujimaru Kaori managed to snatch the sixth singularity from the first one. During each singularity, she made at least a few thousand yuan, and sometimes over ten thousand yuan. The highest she ever made was when she robbed the Knights of the Round Table. Except for the final Holy Lance, which was untradeable, she sold everything else and made a killing of three hundred thousand yuan.

Fujimaru Kaori fully utilized the attributes of the Fourth Calamity, stealing anything valuable she saw on the road and selling less valuable food and items to Rick and Tina in the player shop.

Minerals? Let Jeanne Alter mine them, and sell them too. As long as they're enemies, melt down their armor and sell it.

Leaving aside the ordinary enemies who suffered at their hands, the enemy Servants were practically robbed of everything. Now that the Servants have come to Chaldea to help, whether they are on your side or the enemy, the first thing they ask is, "Is Fujimaru Kaori here?"

Through this series of actions, Fujimaru Kaori has amassed an astonishing five million yen. This makes her one of the few wealthy women in the internet cafe, all earned through her own hard work.

When Fujimaru Kaori first joined the internet cafe, she was in pain.

Yes. Because of the burning of humanity, internet cafes don't charge money, they only accept Saint Quartz. But the production of Saint Quartz is too low to use.

Fujimaru Kaori is also suffering now. She can't possibly spend the five million yen. She's only managed to buy BT Titan materials for her close friends Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mash, Ryougi Mi, and Jeanne Alter, and there's still some left over. She could live comfortably for the next few years without buying any more. As for the director in the summoning bell? Forget it, she's a ghost and can't pilot a mecha.

"Bought it! Anyone who's completed Titanfall, I'll get you each a BT (Best in Slot)."

Ryougi Mina took off her glasses: "Isn't this inappropriate? This is money you worked so hard to earn..."

"It wasn't hard work at all, it felt like I got it for free. Hehe~ Mina-chan, if you're really embarrassed, then treat me to a meal."

Fujimaru Kaori felt that with this mecha, stealing Noble Phantasms in the next singularity would be much easier. She desperately hoped to encounter the legendary Gilgamesh; according to the information she had gathered, Gilgamesh possessed the prototypes of all the Noble Phantasms in the world, and if she could enter his treasury…

Thinking about this, Fujimaru Kaori couldn't help but drool with excitement.

Unlike the wealthy Fujimaru Kaori, Natsuki Subaru was completely stunned when he saw the price. Without materials, it would cost 800,000; even with all the basic materials, it would still cost at least 100,000.

He has enough money to take Emilia and Beatrice online every day, but it hurts to spend 800,000 at once.

"No, I need to make money... not just money, but also get my hands on these things..."

No boy can resist mecha, especially after playing Titanfall, the desire becomes even stronger.

However, what bothered Shubi was that the internet cafe's pricing for Titan materials was so rigid that she couldn't earn a single penny. According to Shubi's calculations, if she were to make these materials herself, the materials she would need would cost exactly 800,000, and considering the labor costs and time involved, she would actually be losing money.

"What a loss! If I had gathered all these materials, there would have been no difference between selling them to the boss and selling them to someone else. And selling them to someone else would have resulted in a deduction of some money..."

A 3% commission may not seem like much, but if the amount is large enough, it can really hurt Hughie.

Rick has now brought a large number of adult humans into the internet cafe. Regardless of what the internet cafe is, humans now have the right to challenge other races.

Meanwhile, Shubi has finished developing the ruins of the Mech and Forest Elf races. However, Shubi now has a plan: she hopes to contact her own race. If possible, she has a scheme that can either slay a god or seize the Star Grail.

but…

Looking at the Vanguard-class Titan before him, Shubi confirmed one thing. With this, humanity could at least fight against the next six races, and there was no need to worry about technology leaks. Apart from the Machine Race and the Goblin Race, the other races either looked down on machines or did not have a mature production line to produce this thing.

The goblins couldn't understand the principles of the Titans either. The special programming language used by the Titans' internal intelligence would probably take the goblins hundreds of years to decipher.

However, Shubi soon realized something: he wouldn't make much money making the materials for the Titan himself. But the power system's durability seemed lacking. If he researched in this direction and created a power system that was even better than the batteries sold in internet cafes, he could actually make money, right?

The thought of making money made her excited.

Compared to Shiro, who was starting to research these things, Minato Namikaze was much more down-to-earth. 800,000 yen was a bit much, but Minato could afford it. So, he simply had Kakashi buy the Vanguard Titan.

After putting it into practice, Minato Namikaze realized one thing: times had truly changed. Eight hundred thousand yen could buy a machine with strength comparable to a Kage-level fighter, and this machine, once properly trained, could be used by almost anyone.

The most painful situation must be for Tatsumi. The good news is that the blueprints are available for the Tank Factory to produce them, but the bad news is that the materials required for the Tank Factory to produce Titans are fixed. Furthermore, activating a Titan requires a core, which is only available to players who have completed the game; the Tank Factory cannot manufacture it.

"This thing can only be used as a weapon in the final battle."

Tatsumi was unwilling, but there was nothing he could do; this was not a long-term solution.

Customers with spare money and time not only began researching and creating Titans in real life, but also started PVP in the game.

Compared to League of Legends and Red Alert, this game is faster-paced and more exciting.

The first two games require operation, but this game's operation is just a matter of shooting and it's over.

Those who can engage in PvP are all players who have completed the story mode, and those who have completed the story mode have already mastered all the action sequences. In the story mode, all the players are practically invincible. Especially after using the auto-aiming pistol given by BT, they all feel like they are unbeatable.

It wasn't until PvP mode that everyone realized that in the story, they had BT as a buddy and comrade-in-arms. But in PvP, Titans are...

"Oh no! It's going to explode!!!"

Accompanied by Fujimaru Kaori's cheerful voice, she happily leaped out of the ronin. With her departure, the ronin exploded on the spot. And from its arrival to its destruction, less than five seconds had passed.

Chapter 205 Baki and the Kid's Beating Up

Liu Yuan was naturally aware of the new game's popularity, but what he didn't know was that it was so popular that materials worth 800,000 yuan, after he took a 3% commission, had increased his daily turnover by nearly 50,000 yuan.

The only pity is

This surge was a one-off event, and this repayment did not allow his daily turnover to reach the level of 200,000.

"This is so hard!"

Inside the second branch, Liu Yuan slumped in a chair: "How boring! Everyone's having a good time!"
