Collapse? No, this is daily

Bronya's somewhat surprised voice attracted the attention of the three people. Nangong Yu was no longer naughty and asked in confusion: "Shouldn't it be midnight over there? Why are they calling you?"

“Who knows?”

Shaking her head, Bronya answered the call and turned on the speakerphone.

"Kiana, it's so late..."

"I want to play Pokémon right now, please, let me play, I can do anything!!!"

"?"

"Pfft~"

The three people watching immediately held back their laughter, watching Bronya respond to the phone with a speechless expression: "No!"

"Eh? Why? Bronya, can't you be flexible? Please, I really can do anything. I can even warm Yu's bed!!!"

Nangong Yu: “?”

No, how did it involve him?

Feeling the sudden attention focused on him, Nangong Yu quickly raised his hands and shook his head.

After glaring at Nangong Yu, Bronya turned around and said, "This is really not possible. It's not that we don't allow you to play, but Anti-Entropy and the various regions haven't reached a complete agreement yet. Some facilities haven't been completed yet. Even if you wear glasses, you can't see anything."

"Ah? Is that so..."

Hearing the disappointment in Kiana's voice, Bronya paused and said comfortingly, "The specific release date in North America will be one week earlier than other parts of the world, on January 1st. How about this, I will send you some glasses with Pokémon bonuses the day before the release, so that you can play in time."

"Really? Thank you, Bronya!!"

In addition to Kiana's happy voice, there is also Mei's faint voice.

"Come to think of it, we haven't seen each other for more than half a year. When will you guys come back? I miss you~"

Kiana's sincere voice without any disguise made several people feel warm in their hearts. Bronya thought for a while, and finally looked at Nangong Yu and picked up the phone to him.

"Going back? Probably at the beginning of next year. After Pokémon is released along with the AR glasses, I will need to stay in the company to handle some follow-up matters. I expect to be able to return to the Far East by the end of January."

After thinking for a while, Nangong Yu spoke.

"Oh, it's Ayu, Ayu you're here too!"

"Of course, when the game trailer is released, we will get together to watch it. By the way, is the bed warming you mentioned real?"

"!!!! Ahem, what, did you hear that?"

"Bronya is on speakerphone."

"......Of course I was just joking, just joking, hey, Ayu, don't take it so seriously."

"That's such a shame."

Just after he finished speaking, Nangong Yu felt three small hands pinching him at the same time, causing him to grit his teeth in pain.

Kiana on the opposite side quickly changed the subject.

"By the way, is everyone gathered together now?"

"correct."

Hearing this, Seele and Kaguya also greeted them.

"In that case, why don't we have a video chat together? We haven't seen each other for a long time. Mei happens to be by my side right now, and Xilin is still live streaming at home, so I won't call her."

Soon, Kiana's video invitation appeared on the phone.

Projecting the phone screen onto the large TV in the living room, Kiana and Mei, wearing pajamas, soon appeared in the center of the screen.

One had a silly smile, the other was gentle, and they smiled and waved at this side.

As for Miss Puffer who was excitedly chatting with the audience in the live broadcast room, she regretted losing the opportunity to chat with someone face to face.

......

After turning down all social engagements, Nangong Yu immersed himself in the company again after this weekend, and began to improve and optimize the bugs that appeared in the closed test, making sure that they were perfect before going online.

"Speaking of which, how much do we charge for the game itself?"

In the office, after fixing a bug, Bronya stood up and stretched. Her plump chest made the buttons of her shirt a little overwhelmed. She walked behind Nangong Yu, bent down and put the weight on his head.

"Charge? Why should we charge? Of course it should be free."

"free?"

A big question mark appeared above Bronya's head.

However, when Bronya heard the words "free game", she felt something was wrong.

"Yes, not only will the main body be free, but users who bind the Anti-Entropy AR glasses will also receive a free Pokémon as their initial partner. For example, in the Far East, there will be three choices: Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur. These are all pretty good Pokémon. How about that? It's a conscience, right~"

Is this a bit too conscientious?

Bending down, Bronya pinched his face.

"Then how can we make a profit? We can't make no profit at all, right? Will the people of Anti-Entropy agree to that?"

"How is that possible? There are built-in charges for the game."

"How much does it cost?"

"That's easy. Poké Balls are charged."

"what???"

Bronya was stunned, and was suddenly speechless when she saw Nangong Yu with a smile on his face.

I thought you had a change of heart, but I didn't expect you to be the real profiteer. You charge for Poké Balls. Listen, is this human language?

You should know that the probability of catching Pokémon directly with the most common red and white Poké Balls is very low. For higher-level Pokémon, the probability is even less than 5%. Even if you consume some of the Pokémon's stamina, the probability is at most 50%. This will definitely be the largest consumable in the entire game.

"Don't look at me like that~"

Turning the chair around, Nangong Yu picked up Bronya, who had lost her balance, and pinched the soft flesh behind her, saying, "Users can receive ten free red and white Poké Balls every day, and only those exceeding the limit will be charged. Of course, for those high-level Poké Balls with a higher probability of capture, only one can be received for free per week, and the price will be higher if you buy them. These will require the people specialized in Anti-Entropy to calculate the appropriate charges, and we don't need to worry about it."

"What about the Master Ball?"

"That's the tournament's reward for the Eight Masters. We won't sell it, and it's not effective against Divine Beasts."

Looking at Kaguya who was still working hard, Bronya relaxed a little and shrank back with a slightly red face.

"Are you ready?"

Nangong Yu suddenly said with a smile.

"Ready for what?" Bronya murmured in confusion with her eyes half open.

"Of course, that's to prepare for becoming a wealthy woman who will never lack R&D funding again~"

Chapter 105: Promise under the Moon

"Mr. Houm, you are finally here~"

In a dessert shop in the virtual world, Yuexia sat on the sofa and kicked her calves, making a joyful and cute sound.

The store is located on a commercial street next to the amusement park. After nearly half a year of testing, the area has been expanded to almost the size of a small city.

Nangong Yu was still wearing the same Houmu suit. At first, it was because Yuexia liked it, but then he slowly got used to it, and even felt embarrassed to take it off later.

Moreover, Yuexia said at the beginning that she was a little shy, so dressing like this would make it easier to communicate with her.

"Sorry, I was suddenly notified last week that the equipment needed maintenance and was unable to participate in the test."

Supporting his chin with his thick arms, Nangong Yu leaned his body on the table. He felt that he had adapted to this suit now. Except for the fact that he had no fingers, his movements were no different from his daily ones.

"I see. I didn't see you last week. I thought you wouldn't come again, Mr. Houmu."

"how come."

With a light laugh, he stretched out his soft arm and tapped Yuexia's little head: "I made an appointment with you, I won't disappear suddenly."

Yuexia covered her head and puffed up her cheeks cutely: "What if I suddenly disappeared?"

"Then I'll go find you."

"Well... count, you pass."

Mr. Houm's almost unhesitating response made Yuexia's eyes evasive and her face became hot. She lowered her head and quickly scooped a spoonful of cake into her mouth.

The cake is so sweet.

He scooped up another spoonful, took a breath, then mustered up the courage to raise his hand and handed it over.

"Mr. Houm, ah~"

"Did you forget that I was still wearing a doll costume?"

Waving his hands, Nangong Yu said with some amusement.

"Yes...but I want Mr. Houmu to have a taste too."

"You can't open your mouth in a doll costume."

"Is it really not possible?"

Seeing Yuexia's somewhat persistent look, Nangong Yu crossed his arms and asked, "Are you sure? Then I have to take off my doll costume?"

"Uh-huh!"

Hearing Yuexia's somewhat excited voice, Nangong Yu asked in confusion: "Why do you seem to be looking forward to it?"

"Of course, I haven't seen what you look like, Mr. Hom!"

She clenched her hands tightly, opened her eyes wide and looked across at the opposite side under the moonlight, with a mixture of anticipation and nervousness.

"Well, I feel a little embarrassed to take it off when you look at me like that."

"Why?!!"

Seeing Nangong Yu put her hand back, Yuexia's heart, which had been hanging in the air, suddenly fell back, and her little face was full of anger.

He took the spoon back and stuffed it back into his mouth viciously. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He simply stood up and moved to the sofa opposite him, lying directly on the Houmu doll.

"let me see!!"

"do not want!"

"Let me see!"

"No! Didn't you say you were shy?!"

"That was a few months ago. If you say that again, Mr. Houmu, I will be angry!"

"No way!"

After a while of fuss, Yuexia finally gave up on asking Nangong Yu to take off the Houmu doll costume, but she squeezed next to him and sat there without moving.

As a punishment, she even brought the cake over and asked Nangong Yu to feed her.

Looking at the cute little face raised up under the moon, the mouth opened, revealing the white and neat teeth and the pink little tongue, and the look of asking for something from him without any vigilance, Nangong Yu suddenly felt his heart stirring, and wanted to put something other than cake in it.

punish?

reward!

After eating the cake, he took a tissue to wipe Yuexia's mouth, and watched her leaning on him comfortably. Her two little hands secretly reached out and hugged his arms little by little.

"There are still more than three hours left. Is there anything you want to do?"

After checking the time, Nangong Yu tilted his head and asked.

"Forget it today."

"Huh? Why? Didn't you say last time that you wanted to go to the new city for a stroll?"

"this......"

After a pause, Yuexia's voice became a little low: "After a while, I may not be able to come to play with Mr. Houmu for a long time."

The raised hand froze for a moment, and Nangong Yu pretended to be calm and said: "Really? Did something happen?"

"Well, Grandpa said that my gene adjustment is about to reach the final stage. Due to my physical condition, I can't proceed directly like other people. I can only sleep in the nutrition chamber. I guess I will sleep for a long time."

Suddenly, Nangong Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Hearing Yuexia's tone just now, he thought something had happened.

He raised his other arm and patted her head, saying softly, "Shouldn't it be a happy thing that your body can recover? Why are you sad?"
