Chapter 1290 Space-themed MMORPG
On the third day back in the modern world, the colony sent back good news which eased Jiang Chen’s tense state .
The report sent by the Colony Governor, Captain Hong Zewei, stated that the Celestial Marines successfully recovered the operation base near Mine 071 with the help of new weapons . The “Drill Warrior” designed by Future Military and Future Heavy Industrie played an incredible role in combating the Mars species .
Those T-4H power armors also substantially increased the survival rate of the Marines .
With Drill Warrior clearing the way, and heavily armored infantries following closely behind, Company A, responsible for attacking Mine 071, destroyed six nests within 24 hours . Five of these nests were Corruptor nests, and the one located outside the radius of the ultrasonic fence belonged to Devil Worms . A total of tens of thousands of adult Corruptors and thousands of Devil Worms were killed . The Celestial Marines successfully pushed from the surface to 21 kilometers underground .
According to the report from Hong Zewei, they were very close to the bottom of the ruins .
When the engineering team complete the reinforcement of the tunnel, it was time for the relics of the Gaia civilization to shine once again .
In the mansion at the northern tip of Coro Island .
Jiang Chen, who was passing by the living room, asked Lilith, who was resting against a reclining chair with a phantom helmet on, “As an advanced artificial intelligence, do you also enjoy playing games?”
Because she was not human, even if she wore a phantom helmet, Lilith could still sense outside information . In her words, she could run the game with one memory zone and control her body with the other memory zone; she was capable of being both in the virtual world and the actual world .
Jiang Chen must admit that he was envious .
“You don’t understand, ” Lilith answered in her emotionless state, “It’s not the game that is fun, but the players who participate in the game . ”
Jiang Chen’s eyebrows twitched .
That’s the fun part?
He was curious why players were interesting for Lilith .
However, it may not sound too great . In her eyes, the players were probably no different than white rats in the laboratory . After all, in her perspective, a troublesome creature like humans could only offer values by contributing to experimental data .
Very contradictory thoughts .
On the one hand, she possessed the desire to have a body that can integrate into human society, and on the other hand, she maintained the stubbornness of an advanced artificial intelligence . Perhaps this contradiction was part of the attributes of an advanced artificial intelligence .
“Don’t just play . Since you have so much free time, come and help me do something,” Jiang Chen said .
“Correct what you just said, ” Lilith said blankly, “I have helped you process 117 . 8 gigabyte of files in the past 72 hours, which is equivalent to your normal workload for a month . From any perspective of analysis, my attitude is enough to be considered diligent . In contrast, you seem to be freer because you just move your tongue . ”
“Uh, that much?”
Jiang Chen awkwardly touched his nose after being scoffed by Lilith .
“I haven’t counted the workload of helping you upgrade the server,” Lilith said with clear evidence to back up her words, “To prevent you from forgetting, I have to remind you . This is your war, not my war . ”
“…you are right . ”
Lilith sat up and looked at Jiang Chen .

“So, tell me, what do you need me to do?”
“Oh?” Jiang Chen looked at her, somewhat confused .
“I didn’t say I won’t help you,” Lilith shrugged, and said solemnly, “I just corrected your allegations .
Well, when the program learns to think, it is indeed troublesome .
He sorted out the words in his head, coughed, and then said .
“Future Technology is currently planning a large-scale space-themed VR MMORPG . The main selling points are probably space colonization, starships, trade, mining, technology tree . At present, the development is close to half-complete . The latest update is that the game completed the import of the astronomical data from the Celestial Trade Space Department . So, are you interested in developing games? ”
Designing a large-scale VR MMORPG with a space theme was discussed and implemented as early as last year .
In addition to the consideration of the current trend, the VR MMORPG also served a political purpose .
For example, to promote the current space colonization of Celestial Trade, to ignite pupils’ enthusiasm for the space industry, and to improve the tactical theory of starship battles in a virtual environment . These political goals would not be explicated stated, but it would be integrated into the game in subtle ways .
Of course, for artificial intelligence, designing a game that people love from the beginning may be a little difficult . However, with the game plan already completed, she could easily finish the programming elements .
“Interest, no . But based on your description, this should be easy for me,” Lilith, still with the helmet on, said emotionlessly .

“Then please and thank you,” Jiang Chen said immediately . “How long will this take?”
From his standpoint, he naturally hoped as early as possible .
“Depends on the workload,” Lilith said . “A week at most, but one or two days if I’m quick . If you can make your people give me as much detail about the game as possible, it can alleviate a lot of my workload . ”
“You can rest assured . We have the best game design team in the world . ” Jiang Chen responded with a bright smile . “By the end of the day after tomorrow at the latest, my team will put together all the information and hand it over to Xia Shiyu . ”
Lilith nodded .
After he explained this, he had no reason to stay .
After Jiang Chen glanced at the time on his watch, he thought that there were still a few things to deal with, so he stepped towards the entrance .
Lilith saw Jiang Chen was about to leave, so she suddenly spoke out .
“Are you planning to leave?”
“There are two meetings I have to attend to in the afternoon,” Jiang Chen said, checking the time on his watch, “I have to go to the office in a bit . Do you want to stay here?”“I will go with you . ”
Lilith jumped off from the chair, put on her slippers, and patted her slightly wrinkled dress .
Since Lilith had no intention of taking off her helmet, Jiang Chen said as he facepalmed

“Is it really okay for you to leave while wearing a helmet?”
Lilith responded with another question .
“Is there an issue?”
Although it was full of issues from Jiang Chen’s perspective, he decided against the idea .
It was time to go .
