Ten minutes is usually just the time it takes to watch a few short videos.

But for the hundreds of thousands of players waiting outside the Deep Blue platform's trial zone, it felt like an eternity.

at last.

As the countdown in the bottom right corner of the screen in all the live streams across the internet reached its final second.

The official entrance to the DeepBlue platform's trial play zone is now officially open!

All the entries lit up, and rows of game covers immediately appeared. Popular teams such as Jiewai Studio, Xiaohuomiao Studio, and Shanhai Team were all placed in the most prominent positions by the platform.

Just a short while later, the platform experienced a slight lag.

The page refresh icon was spinning wildly, and countless players were frantically banging on their keyboards in frustration.

It's like a group of players who have been starving for seven days finally seeing the cafeteria open, and they all rush to the window with their bowls in hand.

Once the page finally loaded, the data panel showing the number of people experiencing the service online in real time began to jump wildly at a terrifying speed.

[Jiewai Publishing's "My Girlfriend is an Old One"...Current number of players trying it out: 4200]

[Little Flame Studio's "Ruins Sentinel"...Current number of players trying it out: 5800]

[Shan Hai Team's "Uncharted Waters: Remains and Glory" - Current number of players playing: 6100]

Objectively speaking, for an independent game, having thousands of people try it out in the first minute after its release is already a top-tier start for a blockbuster in the industry.

In previous competitions, these would have been a sure thing for a top-three finish.

However, when everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to the top of the leaderboard, everyone was dumbfounded.

Number one on the leaderboard:

[Chaoxi Games' "Top Customer Service, Roaming the Heavens!"...Current number of trial players: 45000!!]

It broke 10,000 in one go, leaving everyone else far behind!

[Go go go! Customer service 10086 is on duty!]

[We'll talk about other games later, I need to deal with a bunch of complaints first!]

[I've been reading novels for seven days, so I have to take on a work order myself today!]

[You better have something real, or I'll go from being a player to complaining customer service!]

[The number of players trying this out is ridiculously high! It's already number one right after the server opened?]

……

At the same time.

In the spectator stands, commentator Chi Cheng was also one of these 40,000 people.

As soon as the trial version was available, he immediately clicked on "Gold Medal Customer Service, Wandering Through the Heavens!"

The assistant next to him was stunned.

"Brother Cheng, shouldn't we check out Little Flames first? They're the most popular this year."

Chi Cheng's hand was already on the mouse, and his tone was quite honest.

"We'll talk about the little flame later."

"I've been hooked on this lousy novel for seven days, and I can't feel at peace without it."

Page redirection.

The game title, in white text on a black background, slowly appeared in the center of the screen.

[Top-tier customer service, roaming the heavens!]

Welcome to the Customer Service Center for Fantasy Novels: All Heavens

The heavens collapsed, and the flow of fortune went out of control.

You can hear the protagonists of countless worlds, writhing in impotent rage in every corner where they are mocked.

Please remember: A customer's demands may not be reasonable.

With no unnecessary CG and no complicated world-building, the game's interface is very clean and uncluttered.

Immediately afterwards, the screen entered the difficulty selection interface.

[The system has detected that this is your first time working here. Please select the difficulty level of your task:]

[New Customer Service Staff: Suitable for first-time employees, low requirement for memorable scenes, high tolerance for main character]

[Expert Customer Service Representative: Normal difficulty level; a reasonable balance needs to be struck between the level of public scrutiny and the anchor of evidence]

[Top Customer Service: High difficulty, the shock value required to achieve the famous scene has been greatly increased, and incorrect intervention may cause the protagonist to reveal his true colors prematurely]

[Hell Ticket: Highest difficulty, all characters have increased skepticism, authority figures enter faster, and the rating requirements for iconic scenes are doubled]

"Whom do you look down on?"

Chi Cheng sneered.

"Brothers, who am I, the streamer? I'm a recognized pro gamer! A man who's beaten countless hardcore games! Choosing easy? That's an insult to me!"

"The point of this kind of tug-of-war game is the thrill of walking a tightrope! Give me the hell mode right now!"

Chi Cheng selected the highest difficulty level without hesitation.

【You have selected: Hell Ticket】

[Warning: On this difficulty level, the protagonist's patience decreases, the villains become more stubborn, and authority figures are harder to persuade.]

[Ding! Your first expedited work order has been received!]

【Mission World: Alternate History - Literary Academy Dimension】

[Client: Su Mo]

[Current plot point: In the Tianlu Academy's triennial final exam, the most challenging question appears to have an error in its source. The protagonist, Su Mo, a poor student looked down upon, not only submits a blank paper but also immediately spots a fatal logical flaw in the question's use of classical allusions!]

[Customer Request: Customer Service! Immediately unlock access to the perfect interpretations of the Four Books and Five Classics! I want to point out the errors in the exam questions on the spot and thoroughly humiliate these privileged children!]

[Customer Service Objective: Assist Su Mo in creating a memorable scene and gain Shock Points]

Seeing this classic opening, the chat in Chi Cheng's live stream instantly went wild.

[Here it comes! The classic tale of a poor, loser being slapped in the face!]

[Cheng-ge, agree to it! Let him show off! Let him dominate!]

[If you hold back, you'll only get angrier; if you back down, you'll only feel like you've lost out. Just do it!]

"What's the rush?"

Chi Cheng's lips curled into a smile that was exactly the same as Jiang Bo's.

He's someone who's read novels for seven days straight, so he's already figured out the tricks of the game.

Soon, the text interface unfolded.

[Tianlu Academy, the scene of the major examination]

Su Mo, a student from a poor family, hesitated to write anything as he looked at the final question at the beginning of the exam.

[The proctor frowned: Su Mo, why aren't you answering?]

[Su Mo: This question is incorrect]

The room fell silent, broken only by whispers among the classmates.

[Lu Huai'an, a young master from a prominent family, chuckled: "Even the grand examination at Tianlu Academy has a question posed by a mere study companion?"]

Then, four options appeared.

[A: Have Su Mo immediately write down the correct source of the question to prove that the question is wrong]

[B: Have Su Mo remain silent and observe everyone's reactions]

[C: The request is rejected! This is intended to encourage Lu Huai'an to continue his mockery.]

【D: Request customer service access to retrieve ancient text evidence】

Chi Cheng glanced at it, his finger stopping at C.

A is too early, and D is also too early.

While B is a safe bet, high-difficulty levels require a high shock value; simply waiting isn't enough, you must actively ignite the fire.

He chose C directly.

Customer service intervention successful

Lu Huai'an's desire to mock intensifies.

[Su Mo was forcibly pressed into her seat by the system, her face flushed red. Just then, the bell rang to signal the end of the exam.]

[Main Character's Patience -5]

Upon seeing this, Chi Cheng rubbed his hands together excitedly. This was just what I wanted!

As Chi Cheng made his choice, the text on the game interface refreshed again.

Seeing that Su Mo did not refute him, Lu Huai'an laughed even more unrestrainedly.

Lu Huai'an strode to Su Mo's desk, grabbed the blank exam paper, and held it high to show everyone: "Listen to this! A peasant who only got into the academy because of his family's influence can't even solve the problem, yet he dares to say that the Prime Minister's question is wrong?"

The surrounding scions of prominent families burst into laughter, pointing and whispering.

[Classmate A: Trying to attract attention! Do you really think you can win the teacher's favor by saying something outrageous?]

[Classmate B: This is utterly absurd. How dare someone like this sit with us?]

[Classmate C: A poor student's tutor is a poor student's tutor. How dare he spout nonsense even in a setting like this? Does he really think Tianlu Academy is some backwater private school?]

[The invigilator's face darkened: Su Mo, if you disrupt the examination again, I will expel you from the examination hall!]

Chi Cheng's live stream chat also became lively.

[Hahahaha, Su Mo's blood pressure is soaring!]

If it were me, I would have flipped the table!

[Makoto Shinkai is so wicked! The protagonist wants to prove himself, but he won't let him!]

[That's what customer service should be like! Unreasonable customer requests must be rejected!]

[Su Mo: Thank you and your whole family!]

[Cheng-ge, please let him pretend! This Lu Huai-an is so annoying!]

If you keep pressing on the protagonist, his Dao heart will collapse!

[Quick! Tell your proctor that you, Su Mo, are not a coward!]

New options popped up quickly.

[A: Approval was given for Su Mo's immediate response, and the error in the question was pointed out.]

[B: Continue to reject the proposal and keep Su Mo silent]

[C: Su Mo is permitted to say only one sentence: Please, Master, personally verify the source of the question.]

[D: Make Su Mo admit his mistake and keep his exam qualification]
