On my second playthrough, they were full of malice towards me.

The chubby boy's shouts pulled Liao Ji out of that strange state and brought him back to reality.

The chubby boy understood Liao Jigang's momentary lapse in concentration and imagined that he was impressed by the realism of the various settings and details in "Falling II".

indeed.

The reason why the mobile game "Falling II" became popular is not because of its innovative gameplay, but more because of its post-apocalyptic setting and the immersive experience created by the developers, which makes players feel as if they are in another real world.

However, Falling II is not without its flaws. For a long time, its level design was criticized by players for being unoriginal, lacking in playability, and having low creativity, which was deemed unworthy of such excellent art and setting.

until

"If you ask me, Brother Liao, you really came at the right time."

"While Falling II was popular before, it wasn't to this extent. It barely made it into the top tier of mobile games. But about three or four months ago, Falling II replaced the previous designer."

"Change designers?"

"Yeah, you don't know, the reason why Falling II didn't become popular was largely due to the design of its levels, which were like a thesis defense. The combat experience was terrible; it was the kind of game where you figured out the patterns after a few rounds and could beat it with your eyes closed!"

"Later, after players complained that the combat mechanics and design were too simplistic, with the same few routines over and over again, and it became very boring, that damn designer didn't think about how to innovate and develop new maps, but instead directly changed the numbers, mindlessly adding 0 to the attribute values ​​of many monsters, making them both tanky and disgusting!"

"The key issue is that many of the monsters' buffs don't fit the game's design at all; they're just adding difficulty for the sake of difficulty, turning the game from something that was just boring to something that's both disgusting and boring."

The chubby boy sighed as he spoke, as if recalling those difficult times.

However, he quickly put on another excited expression and continued to tell Liao Ji with great enthusiasm: "But just a few months ago, after changing designers, the level design of 'Falling II' has undergone a qualitative leap!"

"The new designers have reverted the monster stats and made up for the lack of difficulty with more interesting mechanics, such as split monsters and monsters that reduce SAN value. Although some monsters are disgusting, they are connected to the game's settings, which makes it feel natural, as if you are really fighting hard against such a monster in the apocalypse."

"In just three or four months, it is obvious to the naked eye that a large number of players who had previously quit the game have returned, the game's popularity has also increased a lot, and the discussion about Falling II on various forums has also increased a lot. Many technical streamers and video clips have emerged. It can be said that the mysterious designer Rei alone has pushed Falling II to another level!"

"Many players have praised the designer Lei, saying that she has a huge imagination and comes up with all sorts of new ideas. It is said that many monsters were designed by Lei herself, which is really unfathomable. It is as if the designer has really experienced these things. It is so admirable."

From the chubby boy's expression, Liao Ji could easily see his admiration for the "Designer Lei".

Indeed, from the previous "Turbid Contract" instance, Liao Ji, as a player, could also feel that the design of many maps in the game was ingenious and the number and layout of monsters were just right.

These all demonstrate a designer's skill and expertise.

Perhaps after being introduced and praised by the chubby guy, even Liao Ji was secretly looking forward to seeing what kind of excellent battles the "Designer Lei" would present to them in the more difficult contract levels 29 and 30.

if

I wish I could see that designer Lei in person again.

The thought suddenly popped into Liao Ji's mind.

Perhaps heaven heard his heartfelt words.

Or

The chubby boy was a little too excited and spoke a bit too loudly.

The sound of high heels came from around the corner of the exhibition hall, and then a woman wearing a beige coat appeared opposite the two.

On the front of the woman's beige coat collar, you can see her name tag, which symbolizes her as a "Senmo employee".

That wasn't an ordinary employee, but someone in leadership, and coincidentally, she was also a designer. However, the woman's name tag had the word "Deputy" added before "Chief Designer," which they had just been discussing.

"Hurry up, hurry up." The chubby boy composed himself, his face falling slightly, and quietly tugged at Liao Ji, trying to get away quickly.

As mentioned before, while the Falling 2 exhibition hall generally turns a blind eye to outside visitors, they'd better leave quickly now that they've run into one of the exhibitors' leaders.

This really wasn't a big deal.

The employees at Senmeng were used to this, but the assistant following behind the deputy designer still cast pitying glances at Liao Ji and the chubby boy.

After all, they could still hear the chubby boy talking animatedly in the corridor, even though it was an intersection, especially his evaluation of the two designers of Falling 2.

coincidence

This "assistant designer" is the original owner that the chubby guy kept referring to as "defense" and "dog shit."

"stop!"

The woman, with a face as cold as frost, directly and sternly stopped Liao Ji and his companion. After walking quickly to them, she said directly, "Show me your employee badges."

"Um..." The chubby boy stammered. He and Liao Ji had snuck in; they weren't even employees of the Senmeng Building, let alone having employee badges.

The woman opposite them clearly knew this all along and was deliberately trying to make things difficult for them.

"No employee badge, huh? Don't you know this is Senmeng's internal area, and unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter? Xiao Liu, call security and tell them there are suspicious people here, and ask them to come and arrest them."

"No, no, sister!"

When the chubby boy heard that security was being called and that they were being labeled as suspicious persons, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly pleaded with the woman for mercy.

Unfortunately, the woman crossed her arms and said nothing, just sneered, as if she was determined to get to the bottom of this today.

As for the woman's assistant, he could only sympathize with Liao Ji and the chubby boy in silence, and then dialed the security number.

It wasn't a big deal originally, but it's all your fault for cursing Sister Hui so harshly.

Now look what's happened. Sister Hui was already resentful about the chief designer being taken away, and anyone who dared to mention it was like a powder keg ready to explode. In the end, that chubby guy even gave her a good scolding, so now she can only accept her bad luck.

The chubby guy panicked immediately. If he really got caught, it wouldn't just be him; his girlfriend at the front desk would also be implicated, and she might even lose her job.

Liao Ji remained calm. Seeing that the security guards had arrived, he knew there was no way to resolve the situation. He gave the chubby boy a reassuring look and told him not to mention his girlfriend or the borrowed card. He should insist that they had sneaked in. If all else failed, Liao Ji was prepared to take all the blame himself.

After all, the chubby guy came to Senmeng Building for him, and he should be considered an unregistered person for the time being, so he won't have any criminal record. Even if he did, it wouldn't matter to him. At worst, he'd just have to go to jail for a few days.

Perhaps it's the unrest here that has drawn more and more attention.

Another clatter of high heels echoed down the corridor, and the most striking feature of the person who appeared this time was her head of pink hair. The title on her name tag, "Chief Designer," was not preceded by any other words.

"Director Lei Lei?"

Assistant Liu hurriedly greeted the pink-haired woman, while the deputy designer, known as "Sister Hui," looked even more displeased.

"What's going on?" Lena frowned at the strange scene before her, and at the several security guards who had been called over to arrest someone.

Sister Hui ignored Lena, but Assistant Liu dared not; she quickly gave a brief summary of the situation.

After listening, Lena originally didn't want to get involved in this matter, since it was indeed the fault of these two outsiders. Moreover, she had decided to leave work early at this time last night, and was now going to visit Sister Anno at her house.

But

Previously, Liao Ji was partially blocked by the chubby boy due to his size and the angle of his view. However, after Lena changed her perspective and left, Liao Ji was now partially obscured.

An unintentional glance led the pink-haired woman to meet Liao Ji's gaze.

And it was at this very moment.

Director Lei stopped in her tracks.

Chapter 327 Autographed Photo

Lena used to think that love at first sight and being instantly smitten were just things to fool children, and she scoffed at them.

After all, anyone with a brain knows that it's impossible for two strangers to be attracted to each other simply by glancing at each other in a crowd; it's nothing more than lust at first sight.

As a mature, rational, and independent urban woman, Lena never imagined that such a thing would happen to her.

However, today, at this very moment.

It actually happened.

Lena didn't know how to express her feelings at that moment.

Is this young man handsome?

He's really handsome.

But besides being handsome, he also gave her a very special feeling.

is that

It was as if they couldn't believe they would see each other here. They were stunned and speechless for a moment. Then, an overwhelming joy welled up from the bottom of their hearts. But soon, this joy turned into a strange anger. They were angry at the other person for coming. But in the end, the anger vanished and turned into a warm and indescribable sweet happiness that made their whole body feel warm.

Lena didn't know how to describe the emotions she felt earlier, such as shock, surprise, and anger. Moreover, these inexplicable emotions passed by very quickly.

The most significant part is the sweet and happy feeling that comes later.

And this Lena can also be described, it's very simple.

It's roughly like this: seeing a young man in a short-sleeved shirt, she thinks of white arms, then moves on to his naked body, then to rolling around in bed, then to her own big belly, then to naming her child, then to having more children, then to naming her child again, then to...

"Cough!" Director Lei coughed heavily.

She shook her head vigorously, clearing her mind of those lewd and perverse thoughts, preventing them from escalating into something more dangerous.

It also brings a sense of sweetness and happiness.

Pooh!

Isn't this just plain infatuated and perverted?!

Lena considered herself a woman of high moral character and self-respect, how could she...

It must be because I've been looking at too many "reference materials" lately while designing "succubus" type monsters! It must be!

Director Lei hurriedly looked away from the young man, coughed, and quickly regained her initial aloof chief designer expression.

She turned to look at the security guards who were there to arrest her.

"You can leave now, everything's fine here."

The security guards were dumbfounded. What did that mean? Was everything alright? They weren't going to arrest him?

However, since Lena wasn't the one who called them over, the security guards all turned their bewildered gazes to Sister Hui.

As for Sister Hui

The chief "assistant" designer seemed to be amused by Lena's antics, while Hui's assistant was trembling with fear, realizing that things were getting serious.

Originally, Sister Hui just wanted to vent her anger on these two unlucky guys, but now...

They didn't realize that whether Lena meant well or not, even a fool could see that Lena was deliberately going against her and trying to sabotage her!

"Ha, Director Lei, you're so arrogant. You don't respect the company's rules at all. You've only been in office for a few months, and you already think you're the master of Senmeng?"

"Arrest them! Call the police!"

Sister Hui stared straight at Lena, deliberately raising her voice a few decibels, her words extremely sharp.

She was determined to fight to the bitter end and was going to punish these two outsiders today. She was in the right, and she wanted to see what Lena could do.
