The God's Games

The main issue was the lack of monsters to hunt, which made it quite frustrating.

It was just that Master PungPong hadn't had the chance to hunt monsters for a while, so he found it particularly annoying.

If he had to rely on such boring quests to level up, he would probably get tired of it too.

When this news spread, the next day, when Hanjun was about to release the quest, a crowd of people is already stood in front of his hut, eagerly hinting for him to assign the quest to them.

Hanjun: "…"

He didn't expect the players to be so enthusiastic.

It seemed there were too few things to do.

Despite his surprise, he followed the plan and released the quest.

He sent Snowball back with twenty players to find and deal with the demons outside, ensuring their safety and clearing out the demons easily.

After sending the players off, Hanjun adjusted his non-existent sleeves and prepared to edit some videos. Enjoy new stories from m-v l'e|m,p| y- r

After so much time in the beta test, Ulon City was almost completed, but there was only one promotional video for the entire World of Eorera.

This was quite disappointing.

Hanjun reflected on himself and felt it was because Master PungPong's live streaming was so successful that it attracted a lot of attention to the game, helping to promote it with his own efforts.

In contrast, Hanjun, as the official, hadn't done much.

The 24-hour live streaming only had one fixed location, which wasn't very effective, merely providing a place for viewers to visit.

Now that he had experienced quite a few things with the players and gathered so much material, he needed to make use of it.

Whether it was the thrilling scene with the demon advance team, the intense battle with Butch the Draconid race hybrid, or the bustling Lindblum City and Hanjun's beating of the Warlock, these were all scenes worth promoting.

Hanjun spent an afternoon editing these videos and posted them on his official account, then left it alone.

The next day, when he wanted to see what the players were saying.

He found the top comment on the video was.

[ I'm from the National Institute of Science and Technology. Can you check your private messages? I need to contact you about something. ]

Seeing that the account had no profile picture and seemed like a newly created account, Hanjun thought it might be just another troll in the internet.

However, this comment managed to become a top comment.

As Hanjun took a closer look, he saw that while some people initially thought the account was fake, one person discovered something and began to think it might be real.

This piqued Hanjun's curiosity.

Fortunately, the internet users had already taken steps to verify the authenticity of the account before him.

[ Yako Reply: Whoa, damn it, guess what I found? This account seems real. It's even get verification. ]

Hanjun followed the comment and found that, indeed, the account was verified.

But why would the National Institute of Science and Technology be looking for him?

Could it be that they heard about the holographic game and want to discuss a partnership?

Others might not know, but Hanjun was very clear about this.

In reality, the game pods and helmets were just fancy gadgets; holographic technology did not actually exist.

At least, he did not have such technology.

He could pull players into the World of Eorera by fixing the spatial anchor points of the World of Eorera through the game pod or helmet program and then drawing the players' consciousness into this World.

Once the players had shaped their characters, Hanjun's divine power helped create them.

After all, Hanjun was originally the creator of the World of Eorera, and making bodies was something he had done thousands of years ago.

As a result, even if players got injured in the World of Eorera, it didn't matter much.

They would only feel a slight sting and then respawn at the church's resurrection point.

If the National Institute of Science and Technology was looking for him because of this, Hanjun would indeed have a hard time explaining it to them.

This time, the video had some differences from the previous promotional video.

There were still many skeptical comments about the <<God's Games Online>> promotional video.

These comments remained because, even after seeing the realism of <<God's Games Online>>, some negative users kept them as top comments for mocking purposes.

Most of the comments under this video were requesting for beta test slots.

If Hanjun hadn't posted the video, they might have been able to hold out, but now that they had seen the new game's promotional video, their excitement was even harder to control.

But what could they do?

They couldn't help but want to see more, and after watching, they were even more eager.

Hanjun enjoyed seeing their frustrated longing, but he wasn't ready to open up the third round of beta testing just yet.

He planned to wait until the next major storyline point was about to come, and then he'd prepare to select new players to enter the game.

After looking at the comments that pleased him, Hanjun finally checked his private messages to see why the National Institute of Science and Technology wanted to contact him.

The private message inbox was overflowing with unread messages. Seeing so many messages, Hanjun's face darkened, and he almost gave up.

He ended up using his divine sense to find the important message.

[ National Institute of Science and Technology: Hello, have you considered a partnership? We can provide funding and technical support. ]

Hanjun: "…"

He was expecting something more like a forceful business proposal, but it seemed like they just wanted to offer money and technical help?

So this is what it means to deal with a national agency—getting an unexpected opportunity.

Of course, he knew that if a national agency provided funding, they would definitely learn about the holographic technology, essentially paying for the technology.

The problem was, that even if Hanjun told them about the technology, they wouldn't be able to develop it themselves.
