Chapter 22 Haha, I don't believe it!
—Yinzhou, Cloud Apartment.
After watching the video with its sarcastic title, Meng Sibo fell into silence for a while.
Like most viewers, he believed that Chu Xiao was wasting his talent by doing this.
"Sigh, there's really no need to rush to release a new game." Meng Sibo scratched his head in frustration.
"Putting everything else aside, this Alice in Wonderland game could easily be played for a long time more."
Although some skilled players have already completed the main storyline.
However, ending the main storyline does not mean there is nothing left to do in the game.
Players can also collect more staves and magic in this game;
Solve puzzles that you won't encounter while following the main storyline;
You can also do more crazy things and appreciate all the different defeat cutscenes in the game;
Or perhaps become a top chef, turning all sorts of ingredients into dishes.
If you like being tortured... uh, no, something hardcore.
Then you can learn from Chu Xiao's amazing skills and become a true pro player.
Defeating various demons without taking damage is very challenging, and you'll feel a great sense of accomplishment afterward.
In conclusion, this game clearly still has a lot to offer, meaning it hasn't reached the point of being a quiet, unproductive period.
Under these circumstances, Chu Xiao chose to create a new game.
"Why did they choose this worst path instead of taking their time to polish it, or slowly adding new content?"
Meng Sibo sighed.
However, even though Chu Xiao chose the option that garnered the most comments, Meng Sibo still...
I've decided to give it a try.
"Never mind, let's go play this new game first."
Meng Sibo downloaded "Persist to the End?" without much expectation.
"It's normal for gifted young people to be arrogant; they'll learn their lesson once they hit a wall," Meng Sibao muttered to himself.
The game downloaded quickly, and he opened it immediately after mentally preparing himself.
"Let's try it for five minutes, just to be polite. If it's bad, I'll uninstall it immediately."
The game starts, accompanied by an exciting background sound.
"The music is pretty good. It seems that, putting everything else aside, the producer's taste is still on point."
Meng Sibo listened for a while, then nodded and gave his evaluation.
After clicking "Start New Game," the difficulty options still pop up.
"As expected, it also has difficulty levels, just like Alice in Wonderland."
[Simple], [Ordinary], [Veteran], [Legendary], [Immersive].
Looking at the five difficulty levels from easy to hard, Meng Sibo did not hesitate at all and chose the highest difficulty level, excluding "Immersive Experience".
Just kidding, he's currently a top player in the second tier of Alice in Wonderland players.
In that case, how could he possibly choose the easier difficulty level?
If the game is too easy, it would be an insult to him!
"I remember producer Chu Xiao saying his second game would be even harder... Haha, I don't believe it."
Meng Sibo revealed a confident smile, his face radiating "wisdom".
Alice in Wonderland was the most difficult game he had ever played... no, it was the most difficult game he could imagine.
Therefore, he really didn't believe that Chu Xiao could come up with a more difficult game that could still be completed normally.
"Legendary difficulty? I'd like to see what makes it legendary."
After saying that, he confidently entered the game.
The game begins, and the opening animation slowly appears.
"……dad."
"Hmm, who's calling me Dad?"
Meng Sibo was taken aback, then realized that it was a little girl of about seven or eight years old speaking.
"dad!"
The cute and sweet voice almost melted Meng Sibo's heart.
"Oh, my dear daughter," Meng Sibo replied instinctively.
Almost all players who have played "Alice in Wonderland" have this reaction.
After all, most players treat Noelle as a daughter, and thus identify with her as a father figure.
Now that a cute little creature has actually called them "Dad," their hearts are naturally not unmoved.
"Persistence to the end is not important!"
The lovely little girl, or rather, the daughter, said this.
"Oh? That matches the game's title. Is the opening scene going for a cinematic narrative style?"
Meng Sibo, who originally just wanted to play around, suddenly became curious to continue playing.
"Why? Didn't I do a good job this time?" the father, who was also the character controlled by the player, asked.
The father and daughter chatted for a few more minutes, but Meng Sibo didn't quite understand what their conversation meant.
Just as he was about to think it over, the game screen changed.
The player-controlled father is awakened from his sleep and turns to look for his daughter.
"So I was dreaming just now?" Meng Sibo muttered to himself, then realized he could start controlling the character.
After familiarizing himself with the basic controls, Meng Sibo saw his adorable daughter.
The daughter noticed her father approaching, opened her arms, and skipped over, throwing herself into his embrace.
"I checked, and this is my daughter! Hehe, my daughter is so cute..."
Meng Sibo chuckled.
The father and daughter chatted casually, and eventually the lively daughter couldn't resist her playful nature and asked her father to play with her.
At this point, the game displayed two options.
[Accept] [Reject]
Upon seeing these two options, Meng Sibo's eyes lit up, and he chose the former without hesitation.
Even a second's hesitation would be seen as a lack of affection for one's daughter.
"Are you kidding me? How could I possibly refuse when my adorable daughter wants to play with me?"
"Even if there are mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, I will definitely choose to accept it."
After agreeing to his daughter's request, the daughter excitedly pulled her father back home and took out his backpack from a corner.
One after another, special props were pulled out, and the father felt somewhat helpless.
These are not toys, but military-grade equipment he used during his previous service.
"Judging from this, the father used to be a soldier? But why is all this equipment mechanical? Does that mean they don't have cultivation in their world?"
Meng Sibo was somewhat confused.
"Dad, can I be the team leader? Is that okay? I want to be!"
"sure."
"Of course, Captain."
Meng Sibo and his father answered almost in unison.
After agreeing, the team leader's daughter ran out excitedly.
Without hesitation, Meng Sibo immediately instructed his father to follow behind.
The two went outside.
The daughter stepped onto a tree stump and said with great seriousness, "Soldier, I have a very important task for you, which is..."
"Save the Strawberry Soldiers!"
"Strawberry soldier?" Meng Sibo tried to think like a child, then realized what he meant and chuckled, "So you want me to pick strawberries, huh?"
