Interstellar Travel: Becoming a Dress-Up Game Designer

Chapter 356

"Professor, they've lost control of the mainframe. Initial checks show no changes."

"I don't believe it! They couldn't have shut down the mainframe without taking anything! Check it ten times over!"

"Yes!"

"I must contact the military to eliminate these people. This is outrageous, absolutely outrageous!"

.....

The space pirates were also completely bewildered. The leader asked his men, "Did you put in some program you shouldn't have?! I said you weren't allowed to touch the mainframe. Are you Zerg brains? I repeatedly told you the code had to be secure before sending it over. Were you just being lazy and not following my instructions?!"

The people below were trembling with fear. The researcher in charge of the matter said, "We did everything you said. There must be a problem with the operation on Designer Lin's side."

The expert looked at him like he was an idiot and asked, "What problem could possibly arise on her end? What could an outsider possibly do to cause problems with the mainframe?"

One researcher stepped forward and said, "There might be a problem with the memory extraction process. Although the technology for extracting human thoughts and memories from AI has advanced a lot, there will always be problems. Humans have always thought that the human brain is fragile, but is it possible that the energy and intensity required for memory extraction are too much for the brain to handle? If someone could withstand this force, wouldn't the AI ​​burn out?"

His words successfully silenced the group of research fanatics, and another person added, "Lin Shuying is a summoner, and she survived the effects of spacetime skewing..."

The big boss lamented, "How could I not have thought of that! The Summoner's brain is definitely stronger! Quickly open the backdoor of the main brain to check if there are any problems with the main brain. I don't trust those useless people in StarCraft."

"Yes."

The big boss then said, "Ask the people guarding Qingfengyi's side what the situation is."

.......

On Qingfengyi's side, after the game started, players frantically rushed into each other's homes to check if anything was missing. Then they continued playing, which was a good way to relieve the tension from before.

At this moment, the data player posted the data he had compiled while offline to kill time and pass the time. And then! The player who was researching the game ecosystem data dropped a huge bombshell.

"Family members, is something wrong with Qingfengyi? Why is this data so strange? Pictures, pictures."

The image shows the recent acquisition situation of rare items in the game "Qingfengyi". There's practically no one selling them, and despite zero transaction records, the prices are skyrocketing. Keep in mind that the prices hadn't changed for two or three years; only rare items from current events saw some activity in the market.

However, the limited-edition items from the current event are surprisingly inactive, while older, discontinued items that had long been obsolete are now circulating. Meanwhile, more players are buying gold ingots and various materials, driving up prices. Secondly, there are private dungeons. There weren't many private dungeons released to begin with, and even fewer were bought by players; nobody is listing them for sale. Everyone has tacitly agreed not to buy or sell them, since most dungeons are purchased in partnerships, and buying and selling would inevitably exclude some players.

"Not only are the auction house data incorrect, but the Players' Guild is also kicking people out, and the Huaxia Jianghu Hegemony Battlefield is openly seizing territory. It's not the kind of seizure by combat players, but the kind of seizure by big shots who intend to secure their territory."

"The situation with sects is also wrong. Many sects have risen up and are recruiting people. In the past, everyone would gather together according to their preferences, but now they actually require people to have skills and techniques to enter."

"I don't understand why I'm being singled out! Haven't I contributed enough to the Mad Mech Pavilion? I've handed in so many resources and helped everyone complete so many missions, why should I be singled out!"

"Although the compensation I received was decent, I can't understand why I was kicked out of the player roster. Please give me an explanation!"

.......

"Stop explaining! Qingfengyi is in trouble, hasn't everyone noticed? The current Player Pavilion and various sects are no longer the original organizations. They've been controlled, controlled by the capital behind them. They're planning to take over the game!"

"Yes, I also figured that out from these situations, just like what the family members mentioned above!"

"Qingfengyi is no longer our Qingfengyi, waaaaah! Designer, come out and do something about it! Where is Qingfengyi? Come out and do something about it!"

"An insider revealed this, and don't try to uncover my real identity. Qingfengyi is being bullied and is about to change hands and go bankrupt."

“Don’t be afraid to expose me, I’m not afraid! I’m going to stand up and say that I am a lawyer from a top-tier firm, and our firm has taken on the case against Qingfengyi. The goal is not to win, but to drag Qingfengyi down.”

"I'm a logistics worker. Qingfengyi's goods have been stuck here for eight days. The higher-ups would rather spend money to maintain the warehouse than say that they can't ship them out. They can clearly ship them out; there are plenty of spaceships."

"Huh? What's going on?"

"My mecha grand marshal, I went to the fifth planet of China for tourism a few days ago, and there was a riot there. The planet lord issued a notice saying that it was caused by outsiders, but I don't know what kind of outsiders they are."

"Huh? What's going on?"

......

Many players of Qingfengyi are into puzzle-solving and exploration, and they quickly deduced a lot from such obvious evidence and clues. Then someone broke the silence: "Someone has targeted Qingfengyi!"

"Surely not? The breeze isn't that strong, who...?"

Before finishing his message, the player subconsciously clicked send, remembering that Qingfengyi had just donated eight hundred trillion, roughly equivalent to two years' worth of military spending across the entire interstellar space. This wasn't just about maintaining soldiers; it also included equipment maintenance, supplies, upgrades, and research—no small sum. Then there were the various museums, sales events, collaborative studios, awards, and partner planets Qingfengyi had established offline…

"My mecha Grand Marshal, the sheer size of Qingfengyi is astonishing!"

"I have only just realized how great the gentle breeze is now."

"Strangely enough, Qingfengyi Games is the face of Qingfengyi, yet it is the smallest entity."

"How could the one in front be the smallest? Do you know how much Qingfengyi's item value is estimated to be? On the black market, once Qingfengyi is dismantled, just the item code alone could sell for hundreds of years' worth of military funds!"

"How is that possible!"

.......

At this moment, the owner of the Pet Pavilion, "My Family Sells Spaceships," stepped forward and said, "I, the owner of the Pet Pavilion, am determined to uphold the fairness and security of Qingfengyi's game! Those who are trying to cause trouble, just wait."

"We, the members of Pet Pavilion, are determined to safeguard the safety and fairness of Qingfengyi's game. Those who try to pull any tricks, just wait!"

"We, the members of Pet Pavilion, are determined to safeguard the safety and fairness of Qingfengyi's game. Those who try to pull any tricks, just wait!"
