Universe Infinite Canteen

"Huh?" Ma Lu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he thought that not long ago he had suggested that the boss be replaced by Sister Yu, who had black silk stockings and big meaty legs.

Fortunately, Bald Man was very angry and did not hold on to this point. Instead, he waved his hand and said, "It's okay. It's my fault that I didn't make it clear before."

"So why does Mr. Isaac Gang suddenly want to switch to video games?" Malu asked.

"It's like this. Recently, the secret treasure left by the Lich King Glynais was found. Glynais is an outlier among the abyss lords. He is not as obsessed with expanding his territory as other abyss lords.

"He is obsessed with research, especially the research on necromancy - he is probably the first person in the entire abyss, so the appearance of the secret treasure he left behind immediately triggered a frenzy of looting from all forces.

"There has been a war in the abyss some time ago, and each family has lost a lot of men. Even the Demon King and Demon General are not immune, and many lords have even died.

"And even the forces that were lucky enough to survive were severely damaged, so the abyss lords agreed to a one-year truce and wait until next year to fight again."

"At this time, part of Glinais's research was leaked out somehow. It was about a new type of skeleton warrior. No, no, it should be called a skeleton puppet more appropriately.

"This kind of skeleton puppet is different from ordinary skeleton warriors. It does not require soul fire. It can be summoned only with bones that can be found everywhere in the abyss. The manufacturing cost is almost zero.

"It can do more than a skeleton warrior who can only fight. It can not only be used as cheap cannon fodder, but can also be used as a coolie. It just needs someone to control it."

Malu has roughly figured out what this game is about.

"So the character controlled by the player is the special skeleton puppet you mentioned. Now the Abyss is very short of manpower due to the war, so you want to use this method to increase manpower.

"The so-called game disc should be the medium for controlling the skeleton puppet, and the game is just a disguise. You just did some local adaptation and numerical work. In fact, what happens on the other side of the screen is real.

"This is also the reason why the numerical planner complained to me before that he could change the numerical value at will, but after the modification, it would not match the reality."

The bald man nodded, "Yes, now the abyss lords are working hard to establish game studios and recruit players to work for them. This is why our Chiling project team was born."

"I still have a question that I don't understand," Malu said again, "There are humans in your own plane, right? Why don't you recruit people locally, but instead of looking far away, come to our plane to recruit people?"

Bald Tuzi said, "In our plane, because humans always go to the abyss to explore, the relationship between us is very bad. Each family goes to other planes to attract people."

"As far as I know, the one who has gained the most so far is the Succubus Queen Corina. She was originally just a weak Abyss Lord, and she was able to gain a foothold in the Abyss by relying on other powerful Lords.

"However, it is said that the number of skeleton puppets under her is almost over 10,000. If you give her some more time, she might be able to become the largest force in the abyss. What's more terrible is that she and Lord Esagan had some conflicts before..."

"What about you?" Malu asked casually.

The bald man was silent again, and after a moment he said, "The online rate on my side is currently only in single digits, and Lord Isaacon's other groups don't seem to be going well either."

"Succubus... does have a natural advantage in recruiting players." Ma Lu touched his chin and said, "It's really hard not to play with 18+ and Abyss together. Why don't you consider changing jobs?"

The bald man also sighed, "Lord Isagun is kind to me, and I will not leave him when he is in danger."

"Boss Bald is also a loyal man!" Ma Lu said with emotion.

"In short, the situation is like this. We are aware of some of the suggestions you made in the room before, such as the problem of wasting time on the road, but it is really difficult to modify. Even if we change the numbers here, it is just a change of numbers. "

"Yeah, I basically understand, which means that what you can do is mainly front-end and operational work."

"Yes." Bald Man took another drag on his cigarette and asked tentatively, "Boss Ma, do you think there is still a possibility for us to rescue him?"

"Of course," Ma Lu said, "After all, you have a good foundation. The theme of opening up the abyss is also attractive to many players. Although it is too real, it is a problem, but it is not a fatal problem.

"If the operation is good, it can still be saved, and even shortcomings can be turned into advantages. Although the proportion of hardcore players in the player group is not that high, it is not completely absent.

"And even if the operation is not good, as long as you buy crazy amounts of money and the base is large, you will always encounter people like me."

The bald man frowned, "But we can't buy it on a large scale... I promised the city manager to keep a low profile, and it's best not to step outside of City B."

"Then we can only think of solutions in terms of operations." Ma Lu said.

"I wonder if Boss Ma is interested in joining our project team and guiding us in operations." Bald Tuzi extended the invitation again. He was very sincere.

"To be honest, we are good at fighting, but this is our first time operating a game. Although I have read some books on this before, I have only a limited understanding of many things due to my lack of experience.

"We are really short of talents in this field now, and the city manager does not allow us to harass ordinary people."

"But I already have my own business." Malu said.

"I know, we certainly won't affect the normal operation of your restaurant, but I hope you can guide us when you are free. I plan to hire you as a special consultant for our Chiling project team."

"As for the basic salary, I can pay you 800 star coins per month."

Bald Tuzi also knew that this number was a bit low, but the problem was that he was really not well-off, otherwise he wouldn't come out for a team building with 14 people and only order 12 dishes.

Malu thought about it, did not refuse, nor did he agree immediately, but asked again, "What about the operating income of the game?"

"Operating income?" Bald Tuzi was a little surprised, "Boss Ma, are you referring to the money in this plane? Although we are a game project team, we are not an ordinary game project team, and money doesn't mean much to us.

"Players coming to play our game is the biggest help to us, and our online rate is not ideal. If we charge at this time, wouldn't it be equivalent to driving away another group of players?"

"No, no, no, you are not players, and you don't understand the joy of spending money in the game. "Malu said, "Moreover, paying money also helps increase player stickiness. When you want to quit the game, think about the sunk costs you have paid, and maybe you will grit your teeth and stay."
