Chapter 474 (2/2)
With such a mindset, they could naturally destroy the maiden’s equipment – just because they were curious about her sword, or they could also trust her unconditionally and stay by her side forever to see what the plot had in store for them.
Even if the game was only capable of autosaving, Supa Hackers [1] would be able to manually retrieve save files to select different routes, being able to experience multiple endings conveniently.
Regular players would rather use dumb, old-fashioned methods by using different save files for different endings
That was why sometimes playing a game without guides had its charm. Players could experience the excitement of discovering the unknown that they feared, the apprehension, the horror to learn that they’ve gone down a dead end, etc. Guides basically served as spoilers and killed all that fun.
Fortunately, this game was almost like an interactive movie. Even if you have been spoiled, you would still be deeply immersed as the full screen strikes you.
Zhao Youyue was fairly certain that this trip to the other world had been successful. She would not need to worry about going through the full military bootcamp before obtaining Su Shi’s ability. What was there to fear?
The game may only have low-level martial arts to offer, but she would still end up a warrior nevertheless, or even a parkour expert. This would allow her to participate in many extreme sports and perform many types of incredible flips and rolls.
Bootcamps may or may not produce the same results, except that character cards were a shortcut of sorts. The only potential problem was the abilities being beyond that which the world could accept, resulting in some depowering or nerfing by the powers that will be.
Zhao Youyue was the arts scholar of the Jiangnan province, yet she chose to study at Jiangnan University. After such a leak, many were surprised. They had expected her to choose Central University or one of the Chinese Universities, which were all top universities in their own right. Jiangnan University may not be so far behind the mentioned two, but it was nowhere nearly as renown.
Many asked for her reasons, and Zhao Youyue replied bluntly – saying that Jiangnan University was closer to her home, adding on the fact that she was not comfortable with the weather at the city center. All she could do was apologize.
Zhao Youyue could not care less about her prospective universities. She could always change her fate with her “Two Dimension Gate” ability.
There was also the fact that her mother worked at Jiangnan University as a lecturer. All Zhao Youyue had to do was to make the simple choice of either choosing to bask in her mother’s glory or going to Central and suffocate in smog.
And thus, Zhao Youyue’s new, lengthy stage of social life begun.
Successfully entering a good university while allowing herself to receive reward money one by one and then bask in that glory was what Zhao Youyue’s parents thought
Early next morning, Zhao Youyue received a message from Su Li.
“Missy, a gaming company has asked for me to illustrate several characters for them, do you think I should accept it?”
