I'm just an internet cafe owner

Kisara muttered to himself, and Liu Yuan could clearly sense that Kisara had become increasingly jealous since Christmas. However, he actually quite liked this side of Kisara.

Yuki Takeya made some personnel assignments: Kurumi went to Path of Survival to learn how to clear hordes of zombies with melee weapons, and Yuri Wakasa went to Skyline to learn how to manage a city.

She and Sakura Megumi entered the game world of 7 Days to Die.

Start learning how to search for houses and craft various basic items.

The game assignments are very well done, and the four of them will probably be busy for a long time to come.

Of course, adding new games for two consecutive days is not only friendly to newcomers, but also very relaxing for many newcomers who are tired of the old games.

A path to survival, a series of trials and tribulations.

7 Days to Die: Fight a zombie horde every seven days; the main objective is survival.

However, compared to Minecraft, Liu Yuan felt that 7 Days to Die was somewhat lacking, because the game could easily become tedious in the mid-to-late game. Once you've cleared out all the houses and leveled up, it's basically just about crafting items for seven days and then waiting for the zombie horde to appear every seven days.

However, this game is the kind of game that you can play for a few days when you feel like it, and it's especially fun when there are more people or when you start player-versus-player combat. Overall, this game is very enjoyable.

With the help of the game, a base is being established.

The tools in 7 Days to Die don't have the bugs of the Minecraft world. In Minecraft, you have a crafting platform and you can craft whatever you want.

What's unique about 7 Days to Die is the little stone hammer; everything else requires you to learn it yourself. It's like a skill book—you can't just click and learn it in the game. You have to carefully read and study page by page. While the principles are simple, crafting different items is quite complicated.

Although their abilities in this game are a little weak, they are enough for survival for people in their world. They have defenses and ammunition that can be built at any time.

While the stones in 7 Days to Die aren't as bugged as in Minecraft, you can still upgrade buildings by placing wooden blocks and using a stone hammer and nail gun.

Yuki Takeya and Ji Sakura divided the work: one studied chemical engineering and learned how to manufacture furnaces and cement mixers.

Another student studied circuits, learned how to build various turrets, and incidentally searched for houses all over the world.

They only played for a day, but in that short time, they learned two very basic things. With electronic and mechanical parts, plus materials readily available in the game store, they were able to upgrade wooden blocks to concrete in their own world.

Steel plating is difficult, but making concrete is relatively simple. Just mobilize everyone to go outside and dig up stones, then use the magical cement mixer from the 7 Days to Die world to turn the pebbles into sand, and then combine the pebbles and sand to make concrete.

Compared to them, Wakasa Yuri only had one day here, and she only had one feeling: her head was buzzing.

She played Cities: Skylines, building cities from scratch, and then? Then she went bankrupt. She built everything based on assumptions, forgetting about public opinion and her budget.

Even though her world was a post-apocalyptic world, resource allocation is a very profound subject, whether it's a post-apocalyptic world or an ordinary world, and she still has a lot to learn.

Fortunately, there were basic beginner tutorials during the initial stages, which helped her understand one thing during city building: The first step in building a city is learning how to allocate resources; it's better to have a resource shortage than to leave resources unused.

This group of four not only became a group of four seeking survival, but also a group of four surviving.

The four of them learned and built at the same time, and they also brought in reliable people from their own world.

While all the survivors slept, Yuki Takeya and Megumi Sakura began construction and house searches, while Yuri Wakasa started city planning. Kurumi, meanwhile, conserved her energy, waiting to be the first to lead the way, shovel in hand, to clear a path for everyone when rescue was needed.

As they came and went, constantly learning in the internet cafe, Liu Yuan realized that Takashima Yuna's complaint from a few days ago seemed to be... right?

And so, a wicked god-like creature with a human body and a snake tail appeared at Branch Number One. Then, about half a month later, while the Academy Island was being built, another newcomer arrived at Branch Number One.

This newcomer was still not human, but a skeleton.

Looking at the ornately dressed skeleton before her, radiating an aura of endless death, Takashima Yuna was prepared. If the skeleton dared to cause trouble in the internet cafe, she would make it vanish completely.

What Takashima Yuna didn't expect was that this seemingly imposing, even inhuman, skeleton would actually speak? It didn't seem surprised by the internet cafe itself? Was it just surprised that she was in an internet cafe?

Chapter 290 Ainz Ooal Gown Becomes Human

This skeleton is named Suzuki Satoru, an ordinary working man who was transported to another world while waiting for the server to shut down.

He was completely bewildered by this time travel, and just when he was feeling lost, he suddenly found himself in the Mind Space Internet Cafe.

Although the internet cafe's setup was different from the ones in his world, it had everything he needed: computers, a receptionist, and a manager. The sight of the computers on the desks and everyone sitting neatly in their chairs gave him a strange sense of comfort after his sudden transmigration.

Because this guest seemed a bit unusual, Takashima Yuna was solely responsible for greeting him: "Excuse me, is there anything you need?"

"Um, I'd like to ask, is this reality?"

"Yes! This is the 4D Space Internet Cafe, where you can play games that will be very helpful to you."

Upon hearing about the game, Suzuki Satoru became excited, but his skeletal body quickly flashed green light, and his emotions were calmed down.

He calmly asked, "Is it possible to restore my body to a human form?"

"This... I can't do it."

Upon hearing this, Suzuki Satoru showed a regretful expression, but then Takashima Yuna added, "If you have enough funds, the boss can do it."

"Money? Is this okay?"

Because he had traveled through different worlds, he could now use the virtual gold coins he had accumulated in the game. Looking at these gold coins, Yuna Takashima shook her head: "Unfortunately, uncirculated money does not conform to our store's monetary concept. You can use special resources, weapons, and items to trade."

As he spoke, Suzuki Satoru took out a bottle of ordinary recovery potion. In the game, this was the lowest-level recovery potion, but in reality, even the lowest-level recovery potion could instantly heal ordinary wounds.

"We don't accept in-game items, but you can trade them through the player shop, where you can probably get a decent amount of money."

"That's fine."

Just as they were talking, Liu Yuan arrived at Branch 1. Looking at the skeleton in front of him, Liu Yuan fell into deep thought: "So you transmigrated with your account? Do you want to return to your original human form? That's possible, but let me ask you one more question. Do you want to become completely human, or do you want to retain your current power while still having the ability to become human?"

"Excuse me, is there any difference between these?"

Liu Yuan explained, “If you turn back into a human directly, I can waive your money. But the price is that the power of your current body will belong to me. If you want to keep your power freely convertible, then I need 10% of the wealth of your current world and 10% of the profit from every penny you earn starting today to go to this store. I personally recommend the second option. Your power is so great that you have no rivals in your current world.”

This was the first time Liu Yuan had encountered such a situation. According to the system description, it was a very rare case of a soul and game data merging and then coincidentally entering a suitable world. Both the rarity of the data and the rarity of the transmigrator were extremely high.

At the same time, the recovery is very difficult, and money alone is not enough to cover the costs; additional money is needed.

Suzuki Satoru fell silent for a moment, his current body granting him a forced calm. He was thinking, but Liu Yuan's next words led him to make the right choice.

"It's absurd for your body to allow you to do what men want, isn't it? Come on! Choose the second one. I won't harm you, because if I really wanted to do something, you wouldn't be able to leave this room."

Liu Yuan snapped his fingers, and Suzuki Satoru felt his soul completely detach from his body.

Liu Yuan continued, "Your soul has just merged with this data, so there's still hope. If it had been any later, you would have been stuck with this skeleton. Do you want to conquer everything like a man, or become a boss and the target of all kinds of heroes and adventurers?"

Upon hearing this, Suzuki Satoru did not hesitate and immediately chose the second option.

He didn't know what the situation was like in the world he was in, but the second possibility that Liu Yuan mentioned really scared him. As a gamer, he knew a principle: no matter how strong the villain is, he will eventually be defeated by the protagonist.

In the game, they were disliked a lot because of their villainous appearance, but a game is a game after all, and niche games have their own way of playing. In reality, he would prefer to have a physical body.

"Very good, you are about to regain your original body. Rest assured, our shop will not leave any aftereffects. Even if you turn into skeleton mode, everyone will just think it is a rare skill."

The principle behind detection skills is actually quite simple: it depends on your true nature. If Suzuki Satoru's true nature is human, then all detection skills are ineffective.

With a snap of his fingers, the system started working.

The system complained while working, even though it was she doing the work, why did it act like it was him trying so hard?

But what can you do when she's such a hardworking and dedicated system? Time to get to work!

Suzuki Satoru had fallen unconscious, so Liu Yuan carried him to the lounge and sat down on a chair there, eating sunflower seeds as he waited.

Once the other person woke up, Liu Yuan stood in front of him and said, "You're awake. The surgery was a success."

"Hey?"

Suzuki Satoru looked at his familiar body and was about to look in the mirror when Liu Yuan took out a mirror and placed it in front of his face.

He still looks like a typical working-class person, but I wonder if it's just my imagination... I seem more handsome? And more fit?

"You're wondering why your body has become healthier? That's right. Your body has been slightly enhanced to match your strength, and you've retained the Forced Calmness skill, turning it from passive to active, allowing you to control your emotions at any time. However, I suggest using it sparingly, as using it too much might cause your humanity to disappear."

"Then I won't use it..."

Liu Yuan laughed and said, "As a gamer, how can you not use skills? As long as you don't use them continuously for an hour in a day, there's no problem. But please remember, this guest, the contract took effect the moment you became human. You'd better work hard to get all the wealth out of your world."

"Can…"

"You mean you're just an ordinary person, right? No problem, our store recently launched a fun game to help you acquire resources, and it's all done peacefully. As for the NPCs who travel with you through time? I believe you'll learn how to use your subordinates effectively after playing this game."

Liu Yuan's suggestion deeply moved Suzuki Satoru. After transmigrating, his biggest worry was the NPCs from his past lives. They were powerful...

He might have a slight chance of winning in a 1v1 situation, but if so many NPCs turn against him, he'll have no choice but to run away.

These NPCs were all created by my former friends. Now that I've traveled through time, they are my only memories of the past.

All he can do is treat these children well and help them live together in a better way.

"Can... I do it?"

"Of course you can! You're a time traveler who's ended up in this internet cafe. You can do anything; all you lack is a little confidence and experience. Since you're the manager, let's start! Let's begin by being a qualified mayor!"

If Suzuki Satoru had transmigrated and lived there for a while, Liu Yuan wouldn't be confident in winning him over, but judging from the appearance, the man in front of him had only just transmigrated.

Since you've already become a transmigrator, and directly inherited a max-level account, destroying the world is a piece of cake. But again, what's the point of destroying the world? Wouldn't it be much more enjoyable to use such power to engage in realistic management and creation than to mindlessly destroy everything?

After all, destruction is over once it's done, but creation can take years or even decades in the blink of an eye, right?

Here's a joke: Let's start a game of Paradox Interactive.

Chapter 291 The Bone King Underwent a Tremendous Change

The Cities: Skylines game that Yuki Takeya's team played before was actually a simplified version of the system. After all, it was a post-apocalyptic world with a severe population shortage, so there was no need to go to such lengths.

However, Suzuki Satoru was exposed to real urban design, and under Liu Yuan's persuasion, he activated the realistic mode.

Cities: Skylines is actually a very simple game. See this highway? Connect the roads, build power plants, build water treatment plants, and designate residential, commercial, and industrial areas. That's it! You've learned how to play Cities: Skylines. Now start building your own city!

This is Suzuki Satoru's current state. As a gamer, he is very interested in this kind of fully immersive game, especially this one, which allowed him to experience the thrill of being a big shot for the first time.

As a newly appointed mayor, your words are absolutely obeyed by your subordinates.

For Suzuki Satoru, this feeling of being a real big shot was something he was experiencing for the first time. And as a game, he had countless failures, but every single success brought him unparalleled joy.

A day is very short, and Suzuki Satoru's experience with city skylines was only just beginning to grasp the basics, such as how to set up traffic and how to distribute residents, businesses, and industries around traffic.

Because of its high degree of realism, he also needed assistants to prepare for agriculture. Although the preparations were quite difficult, most of the time he only needed to have a keen eye for talent and have reliable subordinates execute the plans.

As for his subordinates being unreliable? No problem, he can save and reload countless times, and he can tell at a glance whether they are loyal or treacherous.

Time flew by, and Suzuki Satoru had just brought the town's population to over five thousand when the machine prompted him to save and log off.

He had a lot of fun playing this game. He made a few mistakes early on, such as building a residential area in the middle of an industrial zone, which polluted the surrounding population and drove them away. Or he only built a single two-way road, causing all the cars to get stuck in traffic.

Because no police station was built, the entire city became a haven for crime. Or, when a fire broke out, it was discovered that there was no fire station, and when a fire station was finally built, it caused traffic jams.

He has experienced all sorts of cardiac arrests, but at the same time, he has found unparalleled joy in the process of urban planning.

With five minutes left before logging off, he skillfully saved his game and took off his glasses.

This way of playing the game was more convenient than in their world, and its realism was unmatched by any game in his original world. Playing games in internet cafes gave him a real sense of exhilaration, like being transported to another world with cheat codes.
