I'm just an internet cafe owner

The method that Takiya Makoto used to lure this dragon in was simple: "This internet cafe offers you access to more games you've never played before."

Then I joined, and the different time ratios were too tempting. Originally, I could only play with Takiya Makoto for twelve hours a day, but now I can play for twenty-four hours a day, which is a huge profit.

However, Liu Yuan was puzzled as to how Takiya had managed to subdue Fafnir, this adult dragon.

That wasn't what he was concerned about. What truly intrigued Liu Yuan was that this dragon seemed to be quite arrogant as well. Why did he say that? Because he and Accelerator inexplicably shared a similar trait on their very first day there.

This guy was also stuck on the Imitation Tear, despite being incredibly powerful—so powerful that many of the weapons, equipment, and skills in the old man's ring offered no improvement. Then, when he was hit by the Imitation Tear, he was taught a lesson by the older brother—or rather, turned into a dragon. But it wasn't a big deal; he didn't need power, and having fun in the game mode, he had no interest in seeking further humiliation in the real mode.

However, it wasn't a big problem. He quickly adjusted his strategy and went to hunt dragons in the Old Man's Ring and Monster Hunter.

He even teamed up with Makoto Takiya to hunt monsters together in Monster Hunter, which was a lot of fun.

In the midst of this joyful daily routine, Liu Yuan finally got to see the monthly special game deals refresh once again.

Currently, Fujimaru Kaori's preparations have entered the final stage. When that god appears, she should keep an eye on things and see what she can do. Once she gets the items, she can buy games without restraint.

As usual, Liu Yuan returned to his room once again. This time, however, Kisara was also refused entry.

Outside the door, Yuna Takashima asked curiously, "Kisara, aren't you coming along?"

"No, the boss said it's not appropriate for too many people to be watching."

This was a lie; Liu Yuan said he was afraid he couldn't resist the temptation from Mu Geng. Mu Geng was also worried that she might break her contract with that person. Therefore, at this time, she chose to stay outside obediently.

Jibril then pulled out two buckets of iced cola and excitedly asked, "How about we prepare some food and cola to celebrate after the boss puts on this game?"

Leticia warned, "Be careful, the boss might not come up with a fun game and instead sacrifice you to the gods."

"It's alright, I'll sacrifice myself for the greater good! Even if I'm sacrificed to the heavens today, I'll still eat and drink well."

"And may you have a safe journey?"

The girls were teasing each other, while Liu Yuan, inside the room, stared into deep thought as he looked at the two games that had been refreshed this time.

How to describe this game? It's neither good nor bad.

The first game was Flash Fighter.

As a former browser game, Liu Yuan played this game from beginning to end. The version available in internet cafes was a modded version, but it was different from the Resident Evil mod.

Unlike the rest of the Crisis series, this series allows players to choose which game to play. The difficulty level is moderate, and completing any game will reward you with weapons and items from the corresponding series.

Although the rewards are so-so, the nostalgia factor is there, and while the storyline is a bit cheesy, as a small game, it's easier to pick up than Resident Evil.

LOL, this game can even improve your fighting skills, although the improvement is limited.

The second game is Helldivers, a multiplayer cooperative shooter. It's a top-down shooter controlled with a gamepad or keyboard; the difficulty spikes dramatically in real-time mode.

Why is this game fun? Because in the normal game mode there is no friendly fire, but this game does.

Furthermore, this game lacks a heavy, dramatic setting, has no compelling storylines, and even the so-called "super Earth" is essentially a take-it-or-leave-it situation. After all, it will respawn and rebuild after a while once it's destroyed.

Moreover, the so-called realistic mode is just a change of perspective, and the overall game difficulty remains largely unchanged.

But as I said before, this is a fun game. The fun isn't about cooperating with teammates to conquer difficult levels. The fun is in the various bizarre ways your teammates die, like being run over by a teammate driving a three-wheeled vehicle, being ambushed by a teammate, crashing headfirst into a mech, or being kicked into lava by a teammate.

Here's a joke: in this game, enemies might kill you less often than your teammates.

And because the weapons are so powerful, it's common for teammates to get caught in the crossfire. It's even more delightful to see all the teammates taken down while not a single guard is killed in the chaos.

The game's rewards include unlockable weapons, equipment, and various resources. However, using support skills within your own world has some limitations and requires spending money. But one very powerful support skill is the distress call.

When you encounter danger in your world, you can use the SOS signal, which will instantly be detected by all players who have completed the Real Mode and will be able to help you.

"Sure! These two games aren't bad, but they're not great either."

Liu Yuan was very satisfied with the two games. In the real mode, only the system's body data could be used, but the overall difficulty of the games was not high. One game could be completed and resources obtained by a single person with patience in one or two days. The other game could be played with teammates or even continuously without any problems, because the reward for the real difficulty was winning on Super Earth. All participants could use the unlocked weapons and support. Both games were friendly to newcomers and fun for veterans.

Chapter 320 The Male Protagonist from the World of Seto Hanayome (Bonus Chapter)

"Come on! This is a game for four people, feel free to form your own teams!"

Liu Yuan said this, but after everyone habitually assigned teams, they began to try out the Hell Diver.

As I said before, this game can be played solo, but it's much more fun in a team. Liu Yuan couldn't wait to see the internet cafe players messing around with each other.

In fact, Liu Yuan's idea came true. When the internet cafe opened, the other shops didn't know, but the three branches of the third branch inexplicably formed a team with Yuanshan, Yifang, Fafnir and Takiya Makoto.

And then...

"Holy crap! What are you doing, Yifang?"

That was Kinji Toyama's scream, and Accelerator behind him explained, "Sorry, let's try the bayonet to see if it works."

"Then try it yourself!"

"I tried it, and I lost health."

Takiya Makoto pointed to a small, eye-like object that had suddenly appeared not far away: "Huh? What's that? It's so cute!"

Fafnir, holding the instruction manual, said as he read, "This seems to be called 'pancake.' If you don't kill it, it will summon a large number of enemies. The red light indicates that it has summoned enemies."

As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of psionicists appeared around him. Psionicists, one of the enemies, possess incredibly fast movement speed, extremely high attack power, and long-range sniping capabilities.

This thing is relatively easy to fight when playing solo, because once you kill the sentinels, no more monsters will spawn. However, when you team up, the number of sentinels increases, and the different positions of the four players allow the sentinels to detect enemies from all directions, making this thing very difficult to deal with.

It wasn't just them; other team members also encountered various strange accidents. Some were killed by their teammates while fighting ahead, while others were killed by airdrops while waiting on the ground.

What's even funnier is that when the four airdrops came down in a specific order, the first one was killed by the second one, and so on, resulting in a total wipeout at the start.

This is normal, though. After all, in a normal gameplay session, the number of friendly forces killed in a single battle can exceed 500,000, and sometimes even reach a million. Yes, killed by friendly forces.

With the release of the new game, a newcomer also came to the internet cafe.

This is a young man with black hair and black eyes. He has noticed that his environment has changed, but it doesn't matter.

A man named Michishio Nagasumi called out directly to Liu Yuan, "Excuse me! Are there any weapons here? Can you protect me?"

Looking at the new guest, Liu Yuan smiled and said, "Yes, I can protect you. So, what's troubling you, guest?"

Manchao Nagasumi nodded vigorously, and Hitomi thoughtfully brought over a stool for him to sit down.

"I encountered something terrifying."

Liu Yuan and Mu Geng sat down opposite him and asked seriously, "What terrifying thing?"

"What I'm about to say, you must not be afraid."

Manchao Nagasumi swallowed hard.

You could tell from his expression what kind of fear he was in.

Kisara smiled and said, "We're professionals, we're not afraid."

Manjiro Nagasumi breathed a sigh of relief. After catching his breath, he said, "I've been kidnapped by a mermaid."

Liu Yuan and Kisara both leaned back tactically, but out of professionalism, Liu Yuan asked, "Which mermaid is it?"

"She is a mermaid who is half human and half fish."

Kisara, however, got into a playful mood and drew a mermaid.

Upon seeing this, Michishio Eizumi immediately shook his head and said, "It's not left and right, it's up and down."

Liu Yuan nodded in understanding and drew another one.

Manchao Nagasumi hurriedly shook his head and said, "She's human on top and fish on the bottom. Also, she's a woman and doesn't have a penis! It's a mermaid! Have you guys seen the movie? It's the kind of mermaid that's very beautiful, has a great figure, and is half human and half fish."

Liu Yuan nodded: "Okay, I understand. You've been kidnapped and are being chased by a mermaid, so you need help, right?"

At that moment, Kisara couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Hey? What's she laughing at?"

"It's okay, she's pregnant."

Liu Yuan continued, "So you want us to help you get rid of the mermaid?"

"That's right! She pursued me relentlessly, but her family kidnapped me and took me to the bottom of the sea, right where my hometown is. It was full of mermaids, and turtles, turtles!"

As Michishio Nagasumi's expression constantly changed, Liu Yuan became certain of one thing through the way his expression and body moved so freely: the world he came from was not simple.

If we're talking about character settings, this guy might come from a comedy world.

The world of comedy is a very mysterious place among all worlds. Characters from the world of comedy possess all sorts of unexpected abilities; for example, just based on the fact that this guy's body could transform in various ways during his introduction, Liu Yuan confirmed this.

"Quickly find me a few more people! Take down those mermaids, and then..."

"puff!"

Tongxi, standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh out loud. She understood almost instantly what the merfolk were up to. After all, they were merfolk; they either killed without leaving a trace, or…

Thinking of this, she laughed out loud again.

"It's okay, she's pregnant too, you can continue."

"They...got pregnant on the same day?"

Kisara nodded with pursed lips and said, "Yes, yes, we're born on the same day."

Liu Yuan waved his hand, signaling Kisara to hold back, and then introduced, "If you need power, I have something here that's perfect for you."

"Great, give it to me."

"Tongxi, take her to the plane."

"it is good!"

"Thank you!"

Michishio Nagasumi expressed his gratitude, but as he turned to follow, he heard laughter. Looking in the direction of the laughter, Kisaragi and Liu Yuan appeared completely normal.

"Huh? I think I heard laughter?"

Tongxi denied it, saying, "This guest may be hallucinating due to nervousness."

"But now, I clearly hear laughter."

He turned around abruptly again, while Liu Yuan and Mu Geng seemed to be discussing something, their expressions completely devoid of smiles.

"Oh! Maybe I really am hallucinating."

Manchao Nagasumi breathed a sigh of relief. His biggest fear was that there was something wrong with his ears, but now it seemed that it was his brain that was the problem, so everything was fine.

Actually, given Manchao Yongcheng's situation, most games in internet cafes aren't really suitable, because these games are for serious people, not for comedic characters. But luckily, Liu Yuan had good luck yesterday and managed to get a Flash Fighter game.

This game... has combat, it's simple, and the reasons for the battles are hilarious. For example, you might be out of money, take on a computer repair job, then go repair people, find repairing people interesting, continue repairing people, then participate in world tournaments, fight aliens, and fight zombies. It's completely illogical. While it somewhat tries to emulate Michishio Nagasumi's character design, for him, this game actually fulfills his needs.
