After a while, the cylindrical cabin made a ringing sound like a bell, telling people around that the game was coming to an end. The clergymen in charge of the operation immediately came over, and Clito, who had been worried all the time, came to the forefront.
Then, the protective fluid in the cabin was slowly absorbed, and the breathing mask on Yue’s face was folded up. The door of the cabin rose slowly, and the whole cabin tilted a little so that Yue could come out easily.
Her eyelashes moved slightly, and then she opened her eyes. Her mind was somewhat blank at first, but soon, she regained consciousness.
“What an interesting experience!” she smiled and said. “If it can be popularized, there will be a lot of people addicted to it all day!”
“That’s impossible.” Klein shook his head. “It’s very expensive. Besides, to make sure it could function well, it needs to be placed in His Majesty’s divine temple or his altar. Thus, it can’t be popularized.”
Obviously, he had already inquired about it in detail before, so now he was full of regret. “I asked whether it would be possible to build an altar in my own house before, and the answer was no. The game cabin needs an altar that is presided over by a clergyman and can offer daily sacrificial activities.”
“You’re very rich. What’s so difficult for you to recruit a clergyman and offer sacrifices every day?” Clito asked curiously as he watched his wife and daughter go to the dressing room with the clergyman to change their clothes.
“Come on! It’s not that simple!” Klein said with a bitter laugh. “I’m living here in Garth City. There is already a divine temple of His Majesty’s, and it is presided over by the Archbishop. Am I going to build another one here? It is definitely impossible.”
After that, Clito understood the whole thing and couldn’t help laughing.
“Then why don’t you move to another place?” he asked.
“The environment in Garth City is very good, and I’m used to living here. If I move to another place, I’ll feel uncomfortable.” Klein sighed. “My current plan is to be a clergyman. Then I’ll buy a game cabin with my bald brother and put it in the divine temple, and then… haha, you know…”
“I don’t like that nickname!” Egil, a bald man, frowned and gave Klein a punch.
He behaved like a rude guy, but his fist was not powerful at all. It caused no pain to Klein.
“But you are indeed bareheaded.”
Egil sighed helplessly. He was too lazy to argue with this fellow, so he just picked up a blank survey report and waited there, looking in the direction of the dressing room.
After a while, Asner came out with Yue, who had changed her clothes. Egil immediately walked towards them and asked, “How are you feeling now? Would you like to give some comments? All opinions and suggestions are welcomed.”
Yue thought about it carefully and said, “The game is easy. It’s good enough to be an adventure experience, but it’s not so scary. Anyway, I didn’t feel scared at all, except for when I was finally frightened by a phantom that had suddenly appeared behind me.”
“A phantom?!” She spoke with ease, but her mother was really shocked and asked, “Are you okay? Were there any dangers? Did you get injured? Is there anything wrong with you now?”
Yue hadn’t expected that her careless answer would make her mother so nervous to ask a lot of questions in a row, and Yue shook her head in a hurry. “No, nothing! Mom, you are thinking too much now! It’s just a game. It’s not real!”
Asner felt relaxed after hearing that and then realized that she had overacted and could not help but blush. But she still looked at her daughter with concern and felt worry in her heart.
Just now, Asner had suddenly felt something happened in the dark, but the feeling was quickly gone, and she didn’t know what that was. So when she heard her daughter say that a phantom had appeared behind her, she immediately had a horrible scene in her mind. That made her overact just now.
People were easily anxious when they were concerned about something or somebody, and it was true even for the legendary masters.
Later, Yue began to share her game experience in detail. When heard that she had turned the fear experience game into an adventure game and that she had won the battle easily, Egil, holding a pen and paper in one hand and scratching his bald head with the other, did not know what to say.
During these days, there had been hundreds of players participating in the test, and most of them had described the game with words such as interesting, horrible or meaningful; and some of them had said it was too horrible and suggested to make it less difficult. There were also some who said that the game was too easy or boring. All of them were retired adventurers or trained adventurers. But she was the only one that had played the game in a different and interesting way.
Yue did not tell others that at last Sui Xiong had appeared and allowed her to make a wish, so Egil could only think about how to write the test report based on what she had said.
Compared with Klein, who was mainly responsible for communicating with the testers, Egil had to do something more serious and boring because of his better educational experience and less handsome appearance. He was dissatisfied with it, but he could do nothing.
He was born this way. Who could he blame?
After talking to Egil in detail, Yue finished her game test. Holding a souvenir—a green jellyfish toy—she continued to play in the Void Mask Land with her parents, and they were all very happy.
She had always been at odds with her parents before, but today she seemed particularly gentle, and that made Clito very happy. He said several times that his child grew up and became sensible now.
In the air, the invisible Sui Xiong looked at them and could not help smiling.
It wasn’t that Yue suddenly grew up and became sensible, but that when he had talked to her just now, he influenced her thoughts with his Divine Power.
Usually, children will have great contradictions with their parents when they were about to grow up or after they just became adults. This was the so-called rebellious phase. How did it happen? How should one deal with it? It was an important subject in both psychology and pedagogy. Sui Xiong knew nothing about it. Besides some animations with the theme of such rebellious teenagers that he had read when he did some illustrations, he had no knowledge of this phase at all. Sui Xiong himself had never experienced the rebellious phase. When he was a teenager, his parents had been busy with business and had seldom been at home all year round. He had also been living with his grandparents until he graduated from college and found a job. And after he settled down, he made the space-travel here.
However, that didn’t mean he could not help.
It was nothing to influence Yue with his Divine Power and give her a hint that she should be gentle and obedient to her parents. It was simple, very simple!
The effect of this hint could maintain for more than a decade, and after that, Yue would have grown up and passed the rebellious phase naturally.
Looking at the happy family in the Void Mask Land, Sui Xiong touched his chin with his tentacles.
“Perhaps I should develop some magic that has no fighting effect but can improve people’s lives effectively.”
He thought about it carefully with his head down. A moment later, he came up with several interesting ideas.
