"Suppose there is a way of interstellar travel that cannot be observed in the real universe. Then, even if aliens are really flying to Earth, we cannot see..."

There was a silence in the room, and only Chu Qiancheng's words were echoing.

"...But this cannot explain why we cannot observe a planet with traces of civilization." Chu Qiancheng looked at the eyes of every major studio employee in the front row with a firm and confident look.

"My explanation is that civilization has been eaten!" Chu Qiancheng raised his hands.

For a moment, the room was as quiet as a tomb, and then all breathing sounds suddenly sounded, and they all gradually became heavy.

"And these terrifying aliens who know the way of interstellar travel that does not exist in the real universe are flying towards our earth. We are the last civilization in the observable universe." Chu Qiancheng held his hands together and crossed his chest, "I define them as Zergs, and Zergs are coming to eat us."

Lee Tommy tried hard to cover her face with her hands, avoiding Shu Huaizi and Cheng Jiaxi's contemptuous look at him: "It's all creators..."

He also tried to write science fiction novels, but he was not a lunatic. How did he know that such a thing happened!

"How can we truly avoid this overwhelming threat? Assuming that the head of the earth can really unify its will and make decisions, then I can only think of one way. It is to use the nuclear level before the Zerg arrives, erase the earth's civilization, and make the Zerg lose interest. When the Zerg leaves, let the fire retained by humans slowly develop and rebuild civilization in the years that followed."

"Of course, this is based on the assumption that the Zerg will continue to devour civilization through magical interstellar travel. At the same time, this galaxy is very far away from the Milky Way. Only in this way can the earth be left with time to survive and develop."

"Mr. Chu..." Guan Qing couldn't help but raise his hand. But his hands were all difficult and trembling.

Although Guan Qing was prepared for Chu Qiancheng's dark and weird prophecy, his persuasive speech style doubled the shock of this prophecy. This was like a horror movie that was a shocking glance when he was a child, and it was played again with high definition quality.

Guan Qing found that he had never grown up.

"Call me Lao Chu, what's the problem?" Chu Qiancheng smiled gently.

"Why is the Zerg? How did the Zerg come from?" Guan Qing trembled with depression.

His attitude made Chu Qiancheng highly focused. He sensitively sensed that future studio staff represented by Guan Qing began to integrate into the situation of the story, which was very good!

He hopes to maintain this atmosphere so that the work is no longer just his own, but common to everyone, so that it can produce unimaginable and incomparable wonderful synergy and sparks.

"Why should Zerg be used to represent aliens..." Chu Qiancheng smiled, "Because insects can eat, this is the truth of the universe. Moreover, Zerg are used to represent the disasters of the universe in many games and movies. I think it is very appropriate to use their images to represent this approaching threat."

"The rest is my own imagination." Chu Qiancheng breathed, "Although this is a science fiction background, reality must be used as a reference to give players a sense of reality and substitution. So after discussing by my former studio colleagues, they thought that my explanation was most in line with reality. Of course, I fully welcome everyone's heated discussion and doubt."

Everyone in the hall nodded silently. Everyone looked at him with all concentration, including Guan Qing and Li Tommy.

Everyone was curious about Chu Qiancheng’s explanation.

"What can be seen everywhere in this world is the alienation of capital to people, industries, and countries. It is transforming our world into logical surfaces, but the bottom layer is extremely crazy."

"The profit-seeking and its expansionary nature of capital will always move towards entropy. Under the profit-seeking nature, all capital will automatically flow to speculative industries with the highest potential for proliferation, such as finance, real estate and gambling. This did not contribute to the liberating productivity, but instead intensified the market bubble and economic crisis, and the country and the people retreated."

"Many great science fiction writers predicted the world of cyber, and our Liu even proposed the concept of a finalist, but this may not be the highest form of capital evolution."

Speaking of this, Chu Qiancheng couldn't help but smile embarrassedly. He actually felt that his idea was a bit unexpected, but this idea was interesting.

"The expansion of capital is a pursuit of profit. With this pursuit, it alienates all individuals who come into contact with it, money, industries, capitalists, and workers. What if this pursuit is further upgraded? The pursuit of profit is combined with the instinct of survival and reproduction to reach the extreme.

In the end, the highest form of capitalization is not only cyberpunk, but also the end-producer, but becomes the mother nest that devours everything."

Li Tommy had a dry mouth. He picked up the coffee cup on the table, but found that there was no drop of coffee inside.

"People always say that exploiters are parasites. So why is the ultimate exploiter, the destroyer of the universe, not the most terrifying bug - the king of the mother!"

When Chu Qiancheng said this, he sat on the podium excitedly, picked up the coffee cup beside him, and lowered his head to peck on it.

"Maybe each of us is a potential Zerg." He added another sentence after drinking the coffee.

The room became quiet again. Everyone's face was as clear as earth.

Fuxin looked at her colleagues around her with a pale face. They were all pretending to be calm. She also showed strength enthusiastically, but her heart was already screaming wildly.

"So... they are here. Those capitalized aliens who have reached the ultimate form?" Li Tommy asked in a dry voice. Cheng Jiaxi and Shu Huaizi looked at him, and their eyes were no longer as calm and strong as they were, but a hint of powerlessness.

"That's right. The Zerg did not stop on the earth where civilization disappeared, and whistled away. Only a group of larvae were left to swallow the remaining energy in the air after the nuclear explosion. Five hundred years later, the remaining humans rebuilt civilization and finally met the Zerg on Earth."

"So, we came to Kubiao Town, the frontier of war, and the frontier of the post-revival of human beings. We... are players, as humans from the past, traveling to five hundred years later, we... will fight for the survival of human beings."

Chu Qiancheng's words were excited and enthusiastic, as if he was narrating an epic of mankind.

But the rest of the studio in the future had no intention of being excited at all. Some people had stiff and cold whole bodies and could not move. Some people had swollen and painful bladders and wanted to go to the toilet. Some people had dry tongues and were about to blister.

It turns out that this is the reason why R108 is launched!

Because humans are not only lonely in the universe, but also about to perish.

Looking at the pale faces of everyone, Chu Qiancheng felt a little surprised. They seemed to be easier to penetrate into the background story than the staff of Chengjue Studio, and found the feeling of despair and eagerness to find a way out in a very short time.

It is worthy of being a game group that has produced countless famous masterpieces. Even the newcomers in it have a sincere attitude towards the game.

Chu Qiancheng looked at Guan Qing, who was pale in admiration, and nodded to him. Guan Qing grinned at him, making him look ugly than crying.

However, they were a little too deeply involved in the show... Chu Qiancheng didn't think about it in depth.

"This is back to the fundamental topic of our discussion, why is it the Kujian Town?" Chu Qiancheng patted the whiteboard behind him, "Suppose that humans detonated nuclear weapons in advance before the arrival of the Zerg, pretending to be the demise of civilization. Then I boldly assume that there must be a group of humans who foresaw the future through some means!"

Everyone nodded, real.

"This group of people must have reserved weapons for humans to defeat the Zerg. This may be a group of magical technologies, a group of humans with special genes, or both. I assume that these technologies and the role of humans in the future have been predicted."

"Since we players traveled to Kubiao Town for specific reasons and met Ally, the heroine of Kubiao Town, then she must be part of the prophecy. There is a puzzle for saving humanity."

"So why is Kubiao Town? Because... it appears in prophecy. This is the starting point of our journey to save the world." Chu Qiancheng used a marker to draw a big circle on Kubiao Town.

Fuxin quickly stood up, took out the story structure and plot outline he printed from Chu Qiancheng's box and distributed it to everyone in the future studio.

This is the mission of execution planning.

People grabbed the materials and looked at them hungrily, the more they looked, the more solemn they looked.

"There is no specific plot line?" Lee Tommy was the first to raise her head.

"Here I just wrote down the difficulties and internal hidden dangers faced by Kugu Town, including their ins and outs, the background of all villains, the changing dynamics of the forces around Kugu Town, and the psychological characteristics and behavioral patterns of all the villagers in Kugu Town, but the plot is not fixed."

Chu Qiancheng smiled and shook his head.

"Uh~~~" Lee Tommy thought, "There must be branch plots, branch endings, etc." He is not a real background architect...

"This is the new thing I long to try in this game." Chu Qiancheng said excitedly, "I want to be an open world that will operate on its own even without players participating. The rules and results of operations depend entirely on the characters, forces, society and natural conditions we set. Players' participation will have an impact, and the impact will depend on the player's own participation.

Whether the protagonist's destiny can be changed and whether the protagonist can survive, grow and mature in a violently changing world environment depends entirely on the players' own efforts. The ending of the story is open and has unlimited branches."

"Oh! I want to play this game!" Lee Tommy whistled.

"But... But Ellie won't die, right? It's absolutely not possible!" Fuxin said heartbrokenly.

"This is one of the fun of making games." Chu Qiancheng smiled, "You can choose to let the protagonist die and create a gorgeous tragedy. If it is a novel or a movie, you will naturally be sprayed to death. But in the game, it can only be blamed for the player not working hard enough. He will play again and insist on making the most ideal ending. We creators can enjoy the dual pleasure of writing tragedy and writing comedy at the same time."

"Old Chu, what you want to design is a continuous operation, completely self-consistent virtual space, a world with the boundary of the Killer Town!" Guan Qing suddenly realized something amazing.

"Yes, this is what I think now. After carefully thinking about Xiaoling's potential, I decided that only such a game can present its potential."

Chu Qiancheng said enthusiastically.

"This... this is so ambitious." Guan Qing, as the person in charge of Xiaoling, naturally knew what a huge project this was. When he decided to contain Chu Qiancheng, even the giants of the Administration probably didn't expect him to do this big thing.

Although R108 is of great significance, is the headquarters determined to invest such a large amount of resources?

Guan Qing spoke anxiously: "This requires amazing computing power, and even electricity is a problem. Moreover, it is impossible for players' computers to run such terrifying computing software."

Chu Qiancheng nodded calmly: "That's right. Players' computers won't run. But now cloud games are popular, allowing players to connect to the servers we provide after purchasing the game and play in the cloud. The computing power we need can be optimized through game and can be diverted through cloud computing."

"But remember that this is a stand-alone game. That is to say, every player has a world!" Guan Qing's voice was anxious, "If there are one million players, this computing power and power consumption are astronomical."

"We can consider integrating with the quantum computing services that are now thousands of miles a day and parallel computing." Chu Qiancheng smiled, "These technologies may not be sound now, but in the foreseeable future, when we make games, this is already feasible."

Guan Qingtou shook like a rattle. He could no longer keep up with Chu Qiancheng's ideas.

"Even if only a few people can play, I hope to be the first person to make this kind of game." Chu Qiancheng looked quietly at the people in the future studio, "This is the frontier of technology, the future of game development, and symbolizes the highest form of the combination of human technology and art. I hope to be the pioneer of this new era."

People looked at each other and shook each other, but they were silent.

"Why do we want to play games?" Chu Qiancheng opened his hands and attracted everyone's attention.

People looked at him silently.

"Some people say that electronic games are the ninth art, and the ultimate of human art, and the completion of all other art types in human beings. A great game is often a perfect fusion of novels, movies, dramas, music, paintings, sculptures... all art forms. In the foreseeable future, games will be the ultimate destination of all art."

"But I think the game is not the ultimate." Chu Qiancheng's eyes were like bright stars, illuminating everyone's mind. "When we can create virtual games that are real and credible enough that the margins of the demon ring no longer exist, then... we will create a real world. This is the tenth art, the art of creation."

His words were like mushroom clouds produced by an atomic bomb explosion, shocking.

The operators of the future studio stood blankly, letting the uncontrollable numbness wash over and over again.
