I'm just an internet cafe owner

The moment Liu Yuan agreed to let Mu Geng become the network administrator, he saw the notification that the task was completed.

The initial task has been completed.

Prizes: One computer and related equipment, 3000 RMB cash, and a complete Resident Evil series experience game.

The lounge is open to staff. It is a fully enclosed space and is only accessible to the store's employees.

New task: Have five regular customers within a month.

Task Reward: Mall Open

The game shop refreshes its inventory monthly, and players can purchase the games for a fee.

Liu Yuan couldn't control the people who came to the internet cafe, but turning them into regulars was where the boss and employees' abilities were truly tested.

There's no rush. According to Liu Yuan's observation, the two who left today will definitely come back. Now we need to make arrangements for the employees recruited by the system.

"Kisara, right? That's the staff break room. If you're tired, you can go in and rest for a bit. Come to work at 2 PM. It's a six-hour workday, got it?"

"I'll remember that~ but~"

Kisara moved closer to Liu Yuan, almost touching him, and asked, "May I stay here?"

"Staying here? It's not impossible, but are you sure the lounge only has one bed?"

"Sure!"

Compared to being sealed in a cave, lying in bed and sleeping soundly is simply wonderful.

"I don't mind, but you're not allowed to go up to the second floor. Familiarize yourself with the items on the shelves before you go."

"Understood."

After closing the store, Liu Yuan didn't have much to do. The equipment and food were maintained by a system that kept everything clean and tidy. All he had to do was maintain the store's hygiene.

The space is not large. Including the newly opened lounge, my own living room, and the hall, it only takes one person a few hours to clean it up.

After tidying up, Liu Yuan sat in front of the computer and happily opened the game.

The system reward is the entire Resident Evil series, from 0 to 8, which also includes various spin-offs.

To Liu Yuan's surprise, the animated film had actually been made into a game? After browsing through the plot summary and various levels, he found that apart from the beginning and the ending being the same, the middle part was completely different, and he even said that the game was more interesting than the movie.

"Let me try, which generation should I start with?"

When it comes to which Resident Evil game is a classic, different people will certainly have different opinions. Longtime players might think of the first one, where that single glance could bring a refreshing feeling to the summers of that era.

Some people consider it a sequel, with puzzle-solving, monster-fighting, and shipping the characters, and the relationship between Leon and Ada Wong has touched the hearts of countless people.

Every subsequent installment has countless fans, including the lovable yet hateful "troublesome pear," the first meeting between the two protagonists in the game, and the hand sanitizer god of war who fights for his family and children.

If given a specific game, Liu Yuan would start playing without hesitation. But now, with so many choices, he's facing a dilemma.

"Kisara, come here for a second."

"Coming!" Kisaragi, who was familiarizing himself with the items on the shelves, came over.

"Here, pick one. Just choose whichever one looks good to you."

There is only one Resident Evil icon, but opening it will give you different series to choose from. When you hover the mouse over a series, the corresponding main character and a brief introduction will appear on the screen.

Which one looks better? This one will do.

Kisara is referring to Resident Evil 2, which she finds more appealing, and the woman in the red dress also fits her aesthetic.

Liu Yuan followed the Leon route at the beginning, starting as a rookie police officer reporting to the Raccoon City Police Department, where she met Claire, who was also in Raccoon City searching for her brother. Kisara wasn't concerned with the plot itself; what truly captivated her was the immersive experience she had.

The real-life version of Resident Evil has fewer restrictions; you can roll and jump.

Unlike the real-life version of the Old Man's Ring, this game, at its true difficulty, offers no mission hints, the entire world is open, and the ending is unlocked by the player.

Furthermore, the effects of the previous work can be carried over to the sequel. For example, if Liu Yuan accidentally shoots Claire at the beginning, all the main storylines related to Claire will disappear in the later stages, and a forced plot will be triggered when Leon and Chris meet in the sixth game.

If you choose the game mode, there will be invisible walls to prevent the player from moving, and there will be a relatively clear main storyline to guide the player's exploration.

Liu Yuan had already played the main storyline countless times; what he wanted to experience was the true difficulty.

As 'Leon', he stopped in front of the convenience store. 'Leon' noticed the crisis at the convenience store, turned around and drove away.

Lyon route cleared.

Then start Claire's route, and turn around and leave at the beginning as well. Claire's route is completed.

The optimal time to complete the game has appeared; excluding the story content, the total playtime is 2 minutes.

Kisara was dumbfounded when she saw the scene where the game was completed. She had never played the game, but she had heard of it. The game just started by driving away, and that was considered completing it…

"I've wanted to try this for a long time, and I've finally made my dream come true."

Back when I played Resident Evil 2, I had a dream: to just ride off without paying attention to anything at the beginning. Now that dream has come true.

"Would you like to give it a try?"

"Me...? Is that alright?"

Kisara was intrigued; the game looked incredibly fun. But was it appropriate for her to come here only to seek refuge?

"As an employee, you can play games for free outside of work hours. Why don't you give it a try? I'll teach you."

"it is good!"

Liu Yuan played until late at night, and feeling a little sleepy, he yawned.

"It's getting late, I'm going to bed."

"Ah."

"Don't stay out too late."

"Ah."

After glancing at 'Claire' who was exploring the city, Liu Yuan went back to his room to sleep.

Meanwhile, in the kingdom's slums, as Subaru Natsuki was walking and chatting with a little girl, the giant elder Rom was kicked out of his room.

"Lord Rom? What happened?"

Inside the room, magical fluctuations and the sounds of constant fighting could be heard.

Natsuki Subaru saw familiar figures inside: the spirit and the murderer who had killed him.

"Ferut, step back and leave it to me."

Subaru Natsuki now held a shield and a longsword. The small shield looked comical, and the longsword resembled a cheap knock-off. It was hard to imagine what use these weapons could possibly have.

He entered the room with focused concentration, where a girl named Emilia was desperately trying to hold on using magic.

The terrifying woman possessed a speed he could barely perceive, and combat experience far exceeding that of Grek's soldiers.

"No problem, it can do it! It absolutely can do it."

The shield and weapon in his hands gave Subaru Natsuki a sense of security, and the combat experience gained from fighting the Grek soldiers for several hours helped him calm down.

There was suddenly another person in the room? To the 'Gut Hunter,' this person was merely an appetizer—no! Not even an appetizer. A shield that looked more like decoration, a weapon any blacksmith could forge.

She thought the person who came would be some powerful figure, but she didn't expect him to be a hotheaded young man who liked to show off. If he liked to show off, then he might as well offer up his guts.

Her blade was aimed at Subaru Natsuki's abdomen, however…

With a crisp clang, just as the blade was about to strike him, the shield on Natsuki Subaru's left arm bounced off from the inside out.

The successful rebound threw the Bowel Hunter off balance, and Natsuki Subaru simultaneously drew his sword to execute him.

But the Bowel Hunter reacted even faster, leaping away from Subaru. In that brief moment, she had felt the threat of death. This man wasn't a reckless fool, but a 'warrior' with extremely unique combat skills.

The unwavering determination and indomitable spirit in Subaru Natsuki's eyes instilled a sense of dread in the Bowel Hunter at that moment—an aura cultivated only in life-or-death battles against the strong. Faced with such a person, she lost her confidence.

On the contrary, Subaru Natsuki's confidence soared after successfully parrying the enemy's first real-world attack, and he rediscovered the feeling he had when he defeated the Grek soldiers.

You can win! You can win. The skills I learned from the game will help me defeat this enemy.

Chapter Six: The Wandering Knight Natsuki

Subaru's battle with the Bowel Hunter

Elsa Gransilt, the Bowel Hunter, is a woman with black hair and dressed in black. She is an assassin, a hidden killer who waits in the shadows for her chance to strike. Her greatest pleasure is disemboweling her targets, one of her few vices.

Natsuki Subaru initially gave her the impression of a noble young master who had never even left his home, but this young master was a bit too difficult to handle.

She appeared to have no defenses whatsoever, yet every time he attacked, the seemingly useless little shield in his hand would always accurately block her attacks.

Especially as the battle progressed, the 'aura' he exuded made her increasingly cautious.

There were two very troublesome targets in the room: a mage named Emilia and a shield-wielding swordsman who appeared out of nowhere. Luckily, they didn't team up, otherwise…

"Hey buddy over there~ Let's team up. Her name is Emilia, she's a really cute kid~"

Puck lay beside Emilia, and with his 'mind-reading' ability, he could tell that Subaru Natsuki wasn't a bad person. At least, he wasn't the kind of person who had ulterior motives towards Emilia.

"Great! That's exactly what I wanted to do to get revenge on her."

Emilia murmured, "Revenge?"

Strangely enough, although Natsuki Subaru talked about revenge, she didn't see hatred in his eyes. Instead, she saw a calmness and excitement.

Elsa frowned slightly. She had no memory of having any contact with this person, and none of the people she had killed resembled him or had the same fighting skills.

But in that instant of her daze, Subaru Natsuki was on fire.

A fatal flaw emerged: Natsuki Subaru, who had been constantly fighting against the Grek soldiers, had indeed mastered combat skills that were almost at the pinnacle of human ability, but his speed, strength, and endurance were simply no match for these skills.

His body is that of a human being, not data. Humans get tired, their bodies have limits, and injuries cause pain…

During his charge, a momentary lapse in concentration allowed Elsa to seize the opportunity. The blade aimed precisely for Subaru's abdomen, but having been trained countless times by the Grek soldiers, Subaru managed to roll away as the blade slashed through his abdomen.

What should have been a game mechanic involving invincibility frames during rolls was somehow brought up here. Invincibility frames are only triggered for a fleeting moment during a perfect roll. But this can be activated by repeatedly dying.

Elsa was indeed fast, but to Subaru Natsuki, she didn't exude the same oppressive aura as the Grek soldiers. The Grek soldiers weren't particularly fast, but their skill and strength instilled fear in him.

He even had a feeling that the Grek soldiers' power wasn't simply for fighting humans, but for fighting creatures far more terrifying than humans. Perhaps the Grek soldiers themselves couldn't even be considered human anymore.

Subaru Natsuki's 'invincible' roll stunned everyone present for a moment. The blade had already pierced through, yet he managed to roll and escape in this state with only a tiny tear on his clothes. What kind of protection was this?

"What? How is that possible?"

Elsa and Puck cried out in surprise at the same time, but as Puck cried out, magic simultaneously struck around Elsa.

“Nothing is impossible…” Subaru Natsuki once again prepared his attack, facing the Bowel Hunter.
