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

But afterwards

"Because that night Anno... she really acted like a dog."

As the young man finished speaking...

The succubus's eyes widened.

Immediately following this, in the hotel room, came a crisp "crack" sound that could be heard.

The sound came from Lena's molars, which were about to be bitten to pieces.

Sense of shame and then courage.

Turn grief and anger into strength.

She might not be as good as Anno in other aspects, but when it comes to being a dog, pshaw! When it comes to "doing what you love," how could Lena, a dignified succubus, be inferior to a mere elf?

This is the only thing she will never lose!

"Yes, Ms. An, that's right, Director Lei has taken another day off!"

The next day, the extremely worried assistant called Anuo to report to President An, fearing that President An was unaware of the seriousness of the problem. The assistant even added a special note at the end:

"President An, Director Lei has never taken even half a day off since she joined the company. She has perfect attendance every month, and even works overtime until late at night every day without turning off the lights!"

"But, but they actually took a day off today, a whole day! That's really unusual!"

The assistant wasn't lying. Lena's rapid rise to the position of chief designer was not only due to her talent, but also inseparable from her hard work and dedication, working 996 days a week.

Everyone in Senmeng has seen this!

Including Anno.

"Yes, I understand."

"Hmm, it's much faster than I expected. Sigh, it's such a pity. Such an easy employee to exploit is gone. Shouldn't we have slowed down her recovery of her memory so that she could set a good example for others?" Anno muttered to herself.

"What? Sorry, Mr. An, I didn't quite hear you?" The assistant looked surprised.

Among her and all of Senmeng's employees, President An was like a goddess, gentle and kind. How could she say such things, as if she were a heartless boss?

"It's nothing, don't worry about Director Lei. Nana is probably just too tired. Let her relax a bit. Oh right, come over to my place later. I have some supplements and relaxation tools. Could you give them to Nana for me as a token of my appreciation?"

"Yes, Mr. An! We are so lucky to have a boss like you!"

The assistant was deeply moved upon hearing this. It turned out she had misheard before. Their CEO, Mr. An, was indeed very caring and approachable. When an employee was sick before, Mr. An would instruct the HR department to send them gifts. This was the humanistic care and corporate culture of Senmeng!

But what the assistant didn't know was...

On the other end of the phone.

While on the phone, the blonde woman packed up the "collar," "tail," and "leash" she had ordered online.

Chapter 342 Reunion

Knowing my younger sister's personality, once she regains her memories, she'll definitely be competitive and try to outdo me, right?

Yes, that way, her glory and nobility as an "elf" can be restored.

Elves and succubi never speak to each other, each regarding the other as "**!"

As the Elf Queen of the Elf race, and Lena the current Queen of the Succubus, if we've both been dogs, doesn't that mean we've never been dogs at all?

Moreover, her "dog" with Lord Liao was just a hobby. At the time, she never suggested adding these "props," otherwise she would really become a dog.

As for Reina, once I send her these items, given the succubus's nature, she'll definitely wear them, right? She definitely will, won't she?

Yes, it's a nice scene.

That fits her definition of a "succubus" perfectly.

call!

Anno let out a long breath and a smile appeared on his face.

such

I guess I haven't let down the other elven ancestors, right?

After all, she has accomplished what her ancestors always wanted to do but were unable to.

The blonde woman nodded in satisfaction, and seemingly inspired by this example, she began to apply it to other situations.

"When we get back, should we find a chance to let Tia and the others experience it too?"

Anno's clear, emerald-green eyes sparkled with innocence.

What's that saying?

As sisters, we should share good things with each other.

Of course.

But that's a story for another time.

Let's postpone enjoying and relaxing for now, after all, we still have important things to do.

Just before hanging up the phone with his assistant, Anno gave a new instruction.

"There's one more thing, something I've been asking the company to prepare for: the project for the remake of 'The Fallen 1'. Now..."

"We can begin."

Lying on the bed, Liao Ji emptied her mind, staring at the ceiling. Her thoughts had never been so clear. It was as if nothing around her could affect her anymore. Even the alluring body sleeping soundly in her arms did not evoke any evil thoughts in Liao Ji.

At this moment, the young man's mind was filled with only goodness, peace, the heavy responsibility of saving the world that he bore, and the countless worlds facing the invasion of the "Source"!

Let's first take stock of the current situation.

First, he had achieved his primary goal of returning to Earth: the person he wanted to find and the person he had to bring back was now lying beside him.

So, will I have to go back to the world of "The Fall" next?

Obviously not.

The "Source Master" is trying to turn all the worlds into the private property of the "Source," and if you want to stop him, you must find a way to defeat that phoenix "Source Master."

Even with his level 150 account and the physical strength of the "Emperor of Ashes", he still couldn't contend with the Source Lord. This was because the Source Lord possessed almost "infinite" energy in his back.

That comes from countless worlds that it has conquered, worlds that other players had previously completed.

The worlds that these players painstakingly completed and saved ultimately became vassals of the "Source Master," who made them the new masters of the world.

No matter how powerful his "Emperor of Ashes" was, he was still helpless against the Source Lord who had a vast number of worlds as his "backing".

Back then in the world of "The Fall," I was truly helpless.

but

Now that he has returned to Earth, back to the starting point of all the "stories," Liao Ji has found a way to deal with the "Source Master."

To put it simply, the source of the Source Lord's power comes from the hard-earned save files of countless Fallen players.

They use the excuse of "Congratulations on clearing the game" to trick players into leaving and abandoning their world.

Since that's the case, as long as I can retrieve these players' save files, start a new final chapter, and allow players to log back into "The Fall," even if only once, then the forces will clash, and those worlds occupied by the "Source Lord" will be liberated, and the Source Lord will no longer have the right to control the world.

At this point, with proper guidance from himself, the power of these worlds can be used to his advantage, becoming a weapon to defeat the "Source Lord".

My thinking is becoming clearer and clearer.

Everything hinges on one thing.

Fall 1

However, based on the information he obtained from the chubby guy and his own investigation, he learned that Fall 1 had completely closed its registration two or three decades ago, and the game company and others had disappeared without a trace. Many of the players' cloud saves had also vanished without a trace.

This should be the "Source Master's" plan and tactic, probably to prevent players from logging back into the game after clearing it, so the passage was directly cut off.

How to retrieve these archives and how to establish a connection are the main challenges.

However, this problem, though seemingly difficult, was not what worried Liao Ji the most. After all, Anno had arrived on Blue Star long before them and had even founded Senmeng and created Fall 2.

Anno must have also figured out the method to defeat the "Source Lord", which is why he did this. He believed that the elves would be prepared in this regard.

What truly worries Liao Ji is the second problem.

After recovering the save data, the more crucial thing is to get those players who "quit" back to the game.

As a player himself, Liao Ji knew very well that most people, regardless of the reason, would find it difficult to come back once they quit the game.

Games are actually a consumable.

What's more, this is a game that was notorious two or three decades ago for its "high difficulty," "disgusting" nature, and being from a "garbage game company."

Those young gamers from back then may now be corporate slaves, and those corporate slave gamers from back then may now be busy leaders.

It is indeed possible to use coercive means or some kind of incentive to get them to log back into their accounts and compete with the "Source Master" for control of the world.

but

This is not what Liao Ji wanted.

It's not what those worlds, whether forced or willingly "abandoned" by their former "saviors," wanted.

Reunions shouldn't be cold.

Liao Ji hopes that those game characters who abandoned the world and were left behind can, even just once, feel again the love that players once had for the world and the feelings they had for their characters, who were once diligent "saviors".

feelings.

This is the theme that Liao Ji set for the DLC (additional content, new expansion pack) of "Falling 1".

Evoking nostalgia is easier said than done, especially for a game from two or three decades ago.

But fortunately

This is a simulation game.

Liao Ji already knew what he needed to do next.
