Chapter 624: 357

The departure of Monk Without Heart immediately improved the atmosphere of the live stream.

Chen Rang sighed with relief and skated over the incident with another topic.

Without Monk Without Heart, the following interview went quite smoothly and was quite enjoyable.

The entire interview process was full of little surprises, and Fang Cheng revealed his future ideas, leaving everyone eagerly anticipating.

When asked about the real story behind “Wonderful Life,” Fang Cheng pondered for a moment.

He could tell the players that the game actually had no so-called plot, that everything was evolved by Guixian, and that it was a journey destined to have no answer.

But he didn’t say that.

Looking at the camera, he told all the players, “The real story of this game is with me, but I won’t tell you. Once a game is released, how to interpret it is not my business anymore; it’s yours. It’s like the game itself. Games are simply tools created for fun. It’s your actions that imbue it with your own meaning.”

He paused to link this to Monk Without Heart’s behavior and continued, “This meaning is your own, and you don’t need to care about what others think. As long as you enjoy playing, why should it matter what anyone else thinks? When asked what the game brings you, just tell people it makes you happy. That’s enough.”

These words left Chen Rang quite reflective.

He remembered the days of his own childhood, playing games incessantly, recalling his dreams, and his debates with others.

The feelings a game gives are subjective, and liking something doesn’t need to be laden with too much meaning. It’s perfectly fine to boldly tell others that you enjoy games. That’s enough.

Using Fang Cheng’s words to conclude the interview, this interview finally came to a successful close.

The setting of the Wonderful Universe flared to prominence again, a large number of fanfictions appeared, interacting with the “Spirit Vessel” MODs, and sparking a new trend in independent media.

Enhancing one’s articles with MODs had become a promising approach, and what popularized this trend was none other than the convenient and quick video production methods of MODs, paving the way for related cultural industries to trend overseas.

Afterwards, analysts scrutinized Fang Cheng’s moves, interpreting them as part of a grand strategy.

[Fang Cheng must have been prepared to develop the Wonderful Universe from the start. Otherwise, why establish Game Inn, and why create MODs?]

[Agreed. The entire process was filled with Fang Cheng’s clever touches, including the hard mode. It was all part of his planned setting for the Wonderful Universe.]

[Maybe the first fanfiction video was made by Fang Cheng himself.]

[Visionary.]

Online comments turned Fang Cheng into a legendary figure, which gave him quite a headache.

Their reactions were very much like those of the Immortals who used to follow him.

Even gazing into the sky would be interpreted by them as signs of change in the Heavenly Tao, a change in ownership of the Divine Artifact, a suggestion that something big was about to happen, better to prepare in advance!

And the collective actions of a lot of Immortals ended up promoting this idea, resulting in an actual change in the Heavenly Tao.

The power of diehard fans was truly frightening.

However, Fang Cheng knew that once such a trend began, nothing he said would make a difference.

So, it was time to cool things off a bit.

Since the New Year was around the corner, Fang Cheng gave his studio staff a long holiday, handed out red envelopes and annual bonuses, and let everyone go home for the New Year.

Compared to last year, the Fang household was a bit livelier this year.

“Boss, are you letting me spend New Year’s at your place because I’ve done particularly well this year, so it’s a reward?” Gong Gong excitedly asked while sitting on the sofa.

“It’s because you are incredibly shameless, constantly nagging me,” Fang Cheng said helplessly.

Seeing Gong Gong’s lolita-like figure, Mrs. Fang glanced at her, then looked at Fang Cheng and pulled him aside to say, “Do you like this type? Committing crimes, that’s something we Fang family cannot do, it will affect civil service exams.”

“No, it’s an Artifact Spirit, think of it as a robot.”

“Is that so… How old are you, to still like playing with Gundams?”

Ignoring Mrs. Fang’s nagging, Fang Cheng contacted Mysterious Mirror to see if it was available to come and spend New Year’s with him.

However, Mysterious Mirror quickly replied, “Boss, I’ve made plans with Monkey this year. We’re going to play games in the Dimensional realm for a month, don’t worry about me.”

“Oh, remember not to overwork.”

“Don’t worry, I know.”

Having chatted with a few others, Fang Cheng moved around to limber up and decided to take a good rest himself.

Resting is to enable one to walk further, so he resolved to step away from gaming for a while, to tend to his Spirit Grass every day, meditate in various ways in the Cosmic Void, and truly enrich himself.

But just three days later, Fang Cheng started to feel a little bored.

Working in the studio, he found coming up with ideas to be a bit troublesome every day, but he felt uncomfortable with too much rest, and his mind would wander during meditation, which was a bit unsettling for him.

Noticing that Fang Cheng was a bit distracted, Mr. Fang thought for a moment and then asked, “Why don’t we all go out for a trip? Fang Cheng, is there anywhere you’d like to take us?”

Fang Cheng looked helplessly at Mr. Fang, realizing that the latter sometimes really didn’t treat him as an outsider.

No, that’s not right—he was never an outsider to begin with.

But what Mr. Fang said wasn’t wrong; indeed, it had been a long time since they went out together.

Knowing they could go out, Mrs. Fang wanted to prepare, but Fang Cheng indicated there was no need.

Wrapping Mr. Fang, Mrs. Fang, Tian Xuan, and Gong Gong in Mana, the five of them appeared in the Cosmic Void in the next second.

Pointing to the countless stars around them, Fang Cheng said, “There are many interesting stars here, each star system with its distinct environment. Where would you like to go?”

“Do you have any recommendations?” Mr. Fang asked.

“I recommend this place.”

No sooner had he spoken than they found themselves on a lush, plant-covered planet.

This planet was full of greenery, teeming with life, but it didn’t seem to hold any particular specialties.

Walking through the grass, puzzled, Mr. Fang asked, “What’s so fun about this place?”

“The Spirit Grass here is particularly vigorous.”

“Spirit Grass isn’t seafood; can it even be described as vigorous?… Well, it seems it actually can…”

Just as Mr. Fang stepped out, he was swallowed whole by a giant Spirit Grass, which started chewing vigorously.

If not for the Mana provided by Fang Cheng, he would have had to wait for Fang Cheng’s resurrection.

After cutting down this Spirit Grass and brewing it into tea, he distributed cups of it to the others, and after taking a sip, he said with satisfaction, “Truly vigorous.”

Watching his son treat the Spiritual Tea like a refreshment, Mr. Fang realized that his thoughts greatly differed from his son’s.

Drinking the tea Fang Cheng provided, he asked, “This place is just so-so, isn’t there anywhere else interesting?”

“Yes, this place here.”

The next second, they were in a world of snow and ice.

Despite being protected by Mana, Mr. Fang felt a bone-chilling cold as he looked around at everything.

Observing the icy landscape, he asked dubiously, “What’s so fun about this place?”

“The temperature here is close to absolute zero, and the icebergs under your feet are actually frozen oxygen. Meditating here is especially quiet and comfortable.”

“…Could we go somewhere warmer?”

“Then let’s go inside a star; it’s very warm there, and you can watch the fusion reaction.”

“…I don’t know what to say anymore.”

After a circuit, Mr. Fang finally realized that the places his son took them to were definitely not the kind of places ordinary people would find fun.

Tian Xuan and Gong Gong seemed to enjoy themselves, but it was a bit too alarming for him and Mrs. Fang.

After some thought, he said to Fang Cheng, “Enough, take us somewhere comfortable where ordinary people can also have fun.”

“Are you sure you don’t want to try a little more?”

“We are not Immortals; how could we find it enjoyable?”

Having no choice, Fang Cheng could only send them to the Three Squirrels for a vacation.

Anyway, they had Wi-Fi there, as well as a designated area just for them, where they could get anything they wanted. As a vacation spot, it should be quite nice.

After seeing them off, Fang Cheng strolled through the void, watching the celestial bodies fly by him, coming and going, and gradually, some ideas formed in his mind.

Many things are indeed beyond the understanding of ordinary people.

What seemed interesting to him was, in the eyes of ordinary people, an adventure every time, showing that their feelings were not the same.

So, if players were given the strength of Immortals and then let them experience the process, would they have the same experiences as me?

At that thought, Fang Cheng felt his inspiration surge.
