I'm just an internet cafe owner

Yunru closed her eyes, and just as she was thinking, she heard someone calling her.

"Hello, guest~ Oh? Is this Yunru?"

The woman's voice and the surrounding noise made Yunru open her eyes. When she looked around, she suddenly realized that she had left her laboratory? Was she dreaming? Or had she been transported away through time and space?

No, she must be dreaming. At least in her world, she had never seen an Agumon sitting in front of a computer playing games and yelling, "Tai! Heal me! Ah! I'm dead!"

Chapter 511 Yunru: "I'll use insects to fight..."

"Is there anything wrong with the bugs?" (Bonus chapter)

Inside the internet cafe, Xin Hai was overjoyed to see Yun Ru suddenly appear.

Although Yunru didn't become everyone's political commissar like Yuri, most Red Alert players had some interaction with her in the game. And now, a real-life Yunru has appeared? Isn't that just too wonderful?

"Excuse me, where is this place?"

"This is the Four-Dimensional Space Internet Cafe, here..."

Before Xin Hai could finish speaking, Yun Ru turned to leave.

She didn't know if she was dreaming or had actually traveled through time, but in any case, she had no time to rest. She had to figure out how to deal with the crisis.

However, just as she was about to leave, Kisara grabbed her hand.

"No need to rush to leave~ The time ratio between our store and your world is 1 minute: 1 hour. In ten hours in our store, only ten minutes will have passed in your world. Ten minutes won't affect your world."

Yunru was initially skeptical, but then she shook her head, clearing her mind of the jumbled thoughts, and chose to believe.

After all, having experienced all sorts of bizarre things like traveling through worlds, alien invasions, and insect invasions, it makes perfect sense to travel to a world with a different time scale, right?

As for how she managed to achieve this level, she wasn't thinking about that for the time being.

Since the time ratio is so absurd, she just wants to rest for a while.

On the other side, Liu Yuan suggested, "Let's put her in the rest room so she can rest properly before we introduce this place to her."

"Ah."

Mu Geng and Xin Hai agreed, and the two of them led Yun Ru to the lounge.

Upon entering the lounge, Yunru lay down on the bed without much thought, but the instant she lay down, she opened her eyes and got up.

"How long have I slept?"

At this moment, Yunru felt so energetic that her physical fatigue had completely disappeared.

Xin Hai was somewhat surprised to see this, but she didn't speak and controlled her expression. Mu Geng calmly asked, "You had a very good sleep. How are you feeling now?"

"I'm a little hungry."

"Give!"

Kisara handed Yunru some desserts, which Yunru ate without hesitation. Feeling her mind was well-nourished, she finally had time to carefully observe her surroundings.

"Excuse me, where is this place?"

As the store manager, Xin Hai took the initiative to introduce the internet cafe.

After the introduction, she began promoting the game that was being sold that day, StarCraft. Liu Yuan had already told her that the first new customer after a new game was released would likely need its power.

Yunru's eyes lit up as she listened to the game's introduction. But then, upon hearing that she herself existed in a certain game, her expression turned serious.

If I am a character existing in a game, then am I truly myself?

Many people have this thought, especially after time-traveling and seeing works related to themselves, they subconsciously believe that they are fake and living in a fake world.

However, according to Liu Yuan's understanding, these thoughts were unnecessary. The world is vast and endless, and since most of these worlds use a unified basic template, there will always be a few, hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of worlds that are similar or even identical.

Moreover, Yunru's background is different from the game's. In the game, she has parents, but this Yunru is an orphan. Furthermore, the world she lives in has not experienced a mental apocalypse or a world war; the entire world is relatively peaceful.

Yunru, on the other hand, was indifferent to these matters. What she wanted to do with StarCraft, which she believed would be helpful to her, was something else entirely.

So, under Xin Hai's arrangement, Yun Ru got on the machine.

While Yunru was setting up her machine, a new employee arrived at this branch.

This newcomer was from the same world as Yunru; a young man named Bai Yinwu also appeared in the internet cafe.

"Where...am I?"

Mu Geng and Xin Hai went to serve Yun Ru, so the newcomer Liu Yuan took the initiative to take over.

"This is the Mind Space Internet Cafe, young man, you've traveled through time."

"I've traveled through time? No, I have to go back, everyone still needs me..."

Now his city has been invaded by a swarm of insects, his companions need him, and he must do his best to protect as many people as possible.

Just as he was about to turn and leave, Liu Yuan spoke up: "Are you really leaving? If you leave here, you'll never have the chance to protect your companions again."

"I…"

Liu Yuan asked unhurriedly, "Alien invasion, insect invasion, right? There's a way here for you to gain the power to eliminate these guys. Are you sure you want to leave?"

He fell silent for a moment. He turned to Liu Yuan and asked, "What should I do if you ask me to do this?"

As a transmigrator and reincarnator, his will was already extremely firm. He had witnessed the destruction of countless worlds, but he never expected that this time, the world he lived in would have such special beings as insects.

At the same time, a feeling deep within him told him that if he died again, he might not be able to be reincarnated.

"You?"

Liu Yuan looked at the young man in front of him. Unlike Yun Ru, he was a warrior. Warriors were not suited to gain power through StarCraft; Titanfall and Helldivers were much more suitable for him.

The insects of their world are powerful to the people of this world, but to the Titans and Hell Lurkers...

These insects aren't really that difficult to deal with.

Liu Yuan also felt sorry for the boy's world, which was originally just an ordinary multidimensional world. However, the template used to copy this world had a problem, resulting in a swarm of insectoid calamities. What was even more distressing was that these insectoid swarms possessed the ability to travel through parallel universes.

Either confine it to a single universe and kill it, or the entire world collapses.

However, this world is truly formidable. Those silicon-based lifeforms managed to fight the Cataclysmic Zerg swarm to a 6:4 score. Now that Yunru and the chosen one of this world have come to the internet cafe and acquired enough power, their chances of winning could probably increase by at least 30%.

Why is there still a 10% chance of something going wrong? This 10% is reserved for humanity's reckless actions. If humanity were to act recklessly and drive Yunru away, and then kill Baiyin Wuxin, the destruction of this world is a possibility.

The two entered the internet cafe, experiencing the game while also quickly memorizing the rules of the cafe.

Pay to go online, pay to buy items, pay to use support.

The appearance of two people is the best choice for this world, because one person will eventually be too busy to handle everything. Yunru can control one of the three forces, but she herself has no combat ability.

While Bai Yinwu possesses decent combat abilities, coupled with the protagonist's plot armor, his individual combat strength is sufficient. However, he lacks in scientific research. Both individuals from the same world receive specialized upgrades at an internet cafe, which will greatly increase their chances of eliminating these insects.

The world has high hopes for these two, hoping they can resolve the inherent natural disaster crisis of the template.

However, Yunru gave the world a surprise when she returned, because instead of using Protoss technology, she used the Zerg power from StarCraft and started laying down creep.

Chapter 512 Who's Calling the Fleet? I Need to Regroup My Forces

With her ability to construct mobile buildings and nanotechnology, Yunru could easily create Terran technology in StarCraft, while the Eldar required psionic energy, which Yunru found too expensive to cultivate.

So, apart from that, the most suitable race is the Zerg from StarCraft.

In reality, controlling the Zerg is very difficult. Even with system assistance, it requires considerable mental strength to control the entire Zerg. Coincidentally, Yunru possesses strong mental strength.

She possesses a strong aptitude for mind control, and with just training, she can become a mind expert. This allows her to control the entire Zerg race in combat, and the Zerg are also very easy to train.

Starting with larvae, a hatchery is built, and the larvae hatch in the hatchery, directly completing the initial cycle.

There's absolutely no need for a specific technological path; just nurture them step by step.

Besides being easy to raise, Yunru also kept something in mind.

Apart from the destruction of countries in the Americas, countries on other continents have survived. If technology is used rashly, war may still break out even if only one-tenth of the world's population remains.

Having these technologies in our own hands means we can use them as a trump card in case anything happens in the future.

"but…"

Looking at the hatching pool busily producing larvae, Yunru sensed the magical control she was experiencing. It felt like playing a video game, except she could receive feedback from the insects. These insects were amazing; just a thought of praise from her was enough to make them very happy.

Unlike the savage insects in the game's storyline, Yunru felt that the insects she was raising... were quite peaceful?

But she quickly gave up on the idea, because when the two insects met, Yunru found that the insects she raised were quite irritable.

"However... we need resources..."

Unlike in games, in reality, breeding insects doesn't require minerals. As long as there are resources, these insects can reproduce quickly. If there are flesh and blood resources, the reproduction speed can increase exponentially.

Yunru set her sights on the swarm of calamity insects that had already conquered most of the world. Originally, she didn't have much power to kill these insects, but…

Looking at the player system she obtained after entering the internet cafe, Yunru summoned Hyperion without any hesitation.

"Who is calling for the fleet?"

She didn't summon the Hyperion directly to the battlefield, but rather to the vicinity of the Americas, where the Zerg scourge descended upon Earth.

"All personnel locked down! Clear the area!"

The Hyperion knew what to do the moment it appeared on the battlefield, aiming all its firepower at the insects on the ground. At the same time, its main gun was aimed at the insects' hatchery.

With a single shot, the insect hatchery was destroyed. At the same time, the Hyperion's powerful firepower wiped out all the insects on the surface within a radius of tens of kilometers.

After clearing out one wave, Yunru immediately ordered the Hyperion to activate warp, instantly eliminating the large swarm of insects and beta nests at the designated location.

The insects had no chance to fight back, and neither did the beta.

The behemoth-class battlecruiser, equipped with air-to-ground laser cannons, is a devastating blow to the beta ships, which are only used for production.

This engineering team couldn't even defeat a fleet of insects that had fallen to Earth, let alone the Hyperion.

Ninety seconds may sound short, but for a battleship of the Hyperion's caliber, even without using warp drive and relying solely on its own thrusters, it's enough to clear out large areas of Zerg swarms and betas.

The cleared area was occupied by Yunru with her insect nest, and at the same time she was carrying out her body modification plan.

Help at the internet cafe

With the help of the internet cafe, as long as the player meets the standards for the Queen of Blades and the world itself meets the requirements, the player can become the Queen of Blades. Furthermore, influenced by the power of the internet cafe, the internet cafe version of the Queen of Blades retains the player's original form, only transforming during combat.

After all, they have a collaboration with the magical girl world, so they're quite professional at transformations.

While Yunru was controlling the Hyperion to clear the area, Shirogane Takeru was already piloting the Ronin mech, mindlessly slaughtering the insects.

The Ronin mech from the Titanfall can slice through the Beta's defenses with its blades alone, and it has absolute dominance over the Zerg swarm. Its goal is clear: first destroy the Beta's nest, then dismantle the Zerg's nest.

Compared to Yunru and Baiyinwu's clearly defined actions, the other customers in the internet cafe found playing this game much more enjoyable.
