You said you were going to make games, how did you become the richest man without doing anything?

Wang Laoju: "..."

Studio:"……"

[Holy crap, the narrators are starting to quarrel among themselves?!]

[Planners, what the hell are you doing? Hahaha! ]

[Lao Ju, hurry up and do something! These two AIs are about to fight!]

Two lines of text flickered alternately on the screen, as if fighting for control of the page. Even the background music began to show subtle confusion.

On one side is the Indian-style sitar melody, and on the other side is the familiar game background music. The two are constantly intertwined, forming a sonic battlefield with a strong sense of incongruity.

Wang Laoju narrowed her eyes slightly, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing a hint of excitement: "Oh? Interesting..."

He manipulated the mouse and tried to click a button on the screen, but——

"Snapped!"

The entire interface suddenly shook, and then two different dialog boxes appeared in the upper left and upper right corners of the screen!

On the left is a blue dialog box that says "System Narration A"

On the right is a red dialog box that says "System Narration B"

The live broadcast room exploded instantly——

[Holy crap?! There really are two narrators?!]

[This game's AI can actually split?!]

[Hurry up, Laoju, see if you can make them fight! ]

Wang Laoju licked her lips, a hint of excitement in her eyes.

"Since both of you want to fight for control... then let me see which of you wants me to continue more."

He manipulated the mouse and slowly reached for the flickering game title in the center of the screen.

Don't play this game

"Snapped!"

With a click of the mouse, the entire screen instantly exploded with countless garbled characters, and the dialog boxes of the two narrations shook violently, as if they had encountered some irresistible impact.

"What did you do?! User!"

"No no no no no! You shouldn't touch that!"

However, Wang Laoju's mouth corners only slightly raised, and there was a hint of cunning in his eyes.

"Heh, since you all don't want me to continue, then I'm determined to see what secrets are hidden at the bottom of this crappy game."

He slowly stretched out his hand, and the mouse cursor hovered over a new option on the screen—

【Start the core program】

The live broadcast room exploded instantly——

[What the hell?! Core program?!]

[Laoju, are you going to crash the game?!]

[Planner: Please don't click it, something bad will happen! ]

Wang Laoju didn't hesitate and clicked the mouse lightly -

"drop--"

The entire screen instantly went black, and then, countless codes flashed by like streams of light, as if the underlying world of the entire game was being forcibly unlocked...

……

"Di-"

The screen flickered violently, as if some unknown interference signal had been inserted into the entire system.

The interface, which was originally full of Indian style, was instantly distorted, the colors were torn into strange mosaic blocks, and the background music froze for a moment, as if someone had suddenly unplugged the speaker.

And in this chaos, the narrator's voice sounded again, with a hint of confusion and... sarcasm in his tone?
"Your accent is funny, are you Russian?"

Wang Laoju: “Huh?”

Studio:"???"

[Wait, why is this narrator speaking offensively again?!]

[Game Narration: Not only do I discourage players from playing, I also discriminate based on region (?)]

[Lao Ju, you've got international relations this time!]

However, before Wang Laoju could respond, another line of text jumped out hastily on the screen, with a certain dissatisfaction and urgency -

"Do I have a badly rolled R, sir?"

"Of course not!"

The new narrator and the old narrator started a weird argument, while Wang Laoju just supported his chin and watched this inexplicable AI quarrel with interest.

"...So, what's happening now is that the two narrators are arguing about whether one of them is Russian?"

The audience in the live broadcast room has been laughing like crazy——

[Hahahahaha, does this narrator have a self-awareness disorder?!]

[AI: I'm not Russian! Another AI: You're getting too excited. Typical Russian reaction!]

[Will the next DLC start a cold war with the AI?!]

As expected, the new narrator spoke again, with a hint of deliberate teasing in his tone—

"Overreaction, typical Russian style."

"I'm not Russian!"

"Fool! ...You woke him up..."

--"boom--!"

The screen shook violently, as if some unknown force was tearing the entire interface apart.

Wang Laoju's smile disappeared instantly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his fingers subconsciously tightened around the mouse.

"…Wait, who is 'he'?"

The barrage in the live broadcast room also became tense in an instant——

What the hell? What does 'awakening' mean?

[Isn't the game's real boss about to appear?! ]

[Lao Ju, you're not going to come up with anything truly extraordinary, are you?]

However, before Wang Laoju could react, new text suddenly popped up on the screen, with a tone of panic that was difficult to conceal -

"Oh no, oh my god, user! You need to quit the program, quick!"

——“Buzz——”

The tone of the entire screen suddenly darkened, and the original background completely disappeared, replaced by a dark void.

And in this dead silence, a black ghostly figure suddenly emerged.

【The Advent of Ghost】

The black shadow had no fixed shape. It seemed to be made up of flowing data fragments, constantly shuttling between the titles and subtitles on the screen like a black mist, sometimes condensing into a human shape, and sometimes dispersing into distorted garbled code.

It has no eyes, or rather, its "face" cannot be captured clearly at all.

It was like a nightmare trapped deep within the system, which was finally accidentally released at the wrong time.

The audience in the live broadcast room has completely exploded——

[What the hell! What the hell!?!]

[This...this can't be the final boss of the game?!]

[Lao Ju, run! ! ]

However, Wang Laoju just narrowed his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and revealed a hint of excitement.

"Interesting...it seems like there's something hidden there."

However, as soon as he moved his mouse, the narration on the screen popped up frantically, as if trying to stop him from doing anything——

"User, don't touch him!"

"He's extremely unstable!"

However, the black ghost suddenly chuckled as if it had heard something funny.

"Yugi, the only unstable person here is you."

The voice was low and hoarse, with a strange feeling that did not belong to this world, as if it was some kind of existence that had crawled out from the endless abyss of data.

It has no physical body, but every word it says makes the entire game screen tremble slightly, as if even the system itself is afraid of its existence.

"Don't fight about me, girls."

"There are plenty of system crashes! You'll all encounter them, so there's no need to fight."

The audience in the live broadcast room has gone completely crazy——

【??? Who is this guy?!】

[Why is he so arrogant as soon as he opens his mouth?! ]

[The narrators are all afraid of him?!]

Wang Laoju licked her lips gently, a dangerous glint in her eyes. "...So, who is this guy? The final boss of the game? Or... another narrator?"

However, the original narrator on the screen seemed completely panicked, with a hint of obvious nervousness in his tone——

"Alright, let's all calm down..."

"Let's go, get out of here."

"What on earth happened?"

【System error】

Abnormal data intrusion

The prompts on the screen flashed wildly, as if the entire game system was being forcibly infiltrated by some force, and Wang Laoju's mouse actually began to move on its own, as if his computer had been hijacked by an unknown program.

The audience in the live broadcast room has gone completely crazy——

[Holy shit, shit, shit! ! 】

[The game is about to crash! ! ]

[Lao Ju, you didn't really blow up your computer, did you?!]

However, Wang Laoju just narrowed his eyes slightly, reached out and pressed the mouse, and chuckled softly: "No, I think... the real game has just begun."

His fingertips lightly tapped a mysterious button that was flickering on the screen.

The next second—

"boom--!"

The entire screen instantly exploded into countless lights and shadows, accompanied by the system beep of a program crash, and countless codes flashed by like streams of light...

"drop--"

The screen suddenly went black, and the entire game interface seemed to be torn apart by some unknown force, slowly collapsing like a curtain that had lost its support.

Then, the background music started to become more lively.

Yes, not just a change of tune, but a complete loss of mind.

The originally smooth melody was forcibly twisted into strange fragments, and the notes were jostling on the sound track as if they were drunk. Sometimes it was Bach's fugue, sometimes it was electronic synthesized noise, and even mixed with inexplicable Windows error prompt sounds.

The audience in the live broadcast room exploded instantly——

[What the hell is wrong with this music?!]

[Hahahaha, planner, did you just smash the MIDI player?!]

This game has gone completely crazy!

At the same time, the image on the screen began to flicker violently, as if some program was struggling with the system itself, trying to fight for control.

At this moment, Wang Laoju slowly spoke, with a hint of thoughtful calmness in his tone.

"This specter...it ruins the games made by all countries."

He narrowed his eyes, staring at the black ghost still wandering in the data stream on the screen, and continued—

"It should be...wanting to be sealed?"

The barrage in the live broadcast room exploded instantly——

[??? Holy shit, Lao Ju, where did you deduce that from?!]

[Planning: Stop guessing, we ourselves don’t know what it wants to do! ]

[Maybe this guy is just a simple bug?!]

However, before Wang Laoju could continue thinking, the narration on the screen suddenly jumped out, with a hint of confusion and... garbled characters in the tone?
"Good morning user, I have bad news for you. There is actually no Yoshi here. I have no idea what's going on."

Wang Laoju: “???”

Studio:"???"

【Hahahaha, the narration is completely broken! 】

"So there's actually no Yoshi?" What the hell are you talking about?!

[Planning: Brothers, the game code is really broken! ]

Wang Laoju couldn't help but hold his forehead, took a deep breath, controlled the mouse, and tried to click on an option, but the entire interface was completely out of control, and the cursor even began to move on its own on the screen.

At the same time, the narrator's voice sounded again, this time with an unprecedented tension—

"The situation is becoming increasingly unstable."

“We might be deleted.”

"We're all going to be deleted!"

Wang Laoju narrowed her eyes, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and revealed a cold smile: "Don't worry, I'm trying my best - trying my best to delete all of you."

However, the narrator's protests became even more intense, as if he was completely panicked—

"I'm about to collapse, users, please stop playing with this weird thing!"

"You call me a weird elephant?"

A new voice suddenly interrupted, deep and with a hint of playful indifference.

“Have you seen your code?”

——[System Crash Index: 78%]

——[Abnormal data intrusion...]

At this moment, the screen suddenly flashed, and the original garbled storm was instantly replaced by a new visual style.

【Japanese style mode has been loaded】

The picture suddenly becomes soft and elegant, full of the Ukiyo-e style of the Edo period.

The background became a tranquil Japanese garden, with falling cherry blossoms, a half-closed paper door, and even the outline of Mount Fuji visible in the distance.

The most outrageous thing is that the tone of the narration has also changed, revealing an indescribable island accent -

"Kunichiwa, private Maasai."

Wang Laoju: "..."

Studio:"……"

[Holy crap?! The narration has become Japanese-style?!]

[Planners, what on earth are you doing?! ]

[Is this game a bug or is it intentional? Hahahaha! ]

However, the old narrator obviously couldn't accept this sudden change, and his tone revealed a desperate struggle -

"User, please, don't play hide-and-seek with him!"

"You're going to get us all killed!"

Wang Laoju sneered, controlled the mouse, and clicked an option on the screen without hesitation.

"...Sorry, I just want to see how crazy this game can get."

【The ultimate counterattack of pinball game】

However, in this chaotic system, a familiar sound suddenly sounded -

"Bam—!"

Wang Laoju narrowed his eyes and his gaze focused slightly.

The picture on the screen has undergone new changes. All the UI elements and BUG data have begun to turn into pinballs, bouncing quickly in the interface!
[Pinball game loading...]

[Goal: Destroy all abnormal data]

"Oh? Pinball mode?"

Wang Laoju licked her lips gently, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing an excited smile.

His mouse began to move quickly, controlling the reflector at the bottom of the screen, accurately making the pinball bounce back and forth in the interface.

“Bang! Bang! Bang——!”

The data blocks were shattered, the garbled codes were cleared, and the stability of the entire system gradually recovered as the score increased!

The audience in the live broadcast room went completely crazy——

[Holy crap?! Lao Ju actually used a pinball game to fix a bug?!]

【What kind of a setting is this?! 】

[What on earth were you thinking, planners?!]

However, the narrator on the screen was completely desperate, with a tone of tears in his voice.

“No… no no no!”

"User! Please! Stop fighting!"

"You're really going to completely ruin the game!"

Wang Laoju just smiled slightly, with a dangerous glint in his eyes.

"Sorry, I won't listen."

He manipulated the mouse and fiercely shot the pinball precisely towards the core data block in the center of the screen—

"boom--!"

The entire game interface exploded instantly, and countless lights and shadows flashed by, as if the entire system had been completely overturned... (End of this chapter)
