To ascend, I had no choice but to create games

Chapter 366: Chapter 226 Feeble Willpower (Part 2)_2

Staring at these electronic Teddy Bears, Tai Yin struggled to discern any issues for a long while.

However, while it could target a common enemy tens of thousands of kilometers away on the battlefield, it could not see any problems with these little bears.

“Which ones aren’t factory-produced?”

“I remember your electronic eye had already been repaired.”

“Hm?”

“What I mean is, none of them are. The factory is so stuffed that the bears inside feel that their bear lives have lost their purpose. They’re complaining to me about this issue, otherwise, I wouldn’t have known so quickly.”

“Hmm?”

Upon hearing the management system’s response, Tai Yin felt that the daily lives of these management systems were quite rich.

Unlike the Radical Faction, which was either contemplating annihilation of flora and fauna or figuring out how to wipe them out along with the Moderate Faction.

After thinking for a bit, Tai Yin calculated the time and realized there were still seven hours before the next battle began. It could use this time to inspect the situation, as this matter might very well be related to Fei.

After deciding, it stood up and said to the management system, “Take me there.”

“Where to?”

“To the little bears, of course.”

“…Sorry, the control center hasn’t been repaired yet, so I can’t take you there.”

“So what should I do?”

“You can place your core chip into one of the little bears. This way, you will be taken there by the automatic patrol system. Don’t worry, I’ll set a retrieval time, and when the time comes, the corresponding little bear will be collected, and then you can come back.”

The management system’s arrangement carried a strong scent of conspiracy, leaving Tai Yin unsure if the management system was planning something.

Yet, it really wanted to know Fei’s whereabouts, so it called its aide and said, “Help me keep an eye on my Mecha, and constantly monitor my movements. If there’s any issue, summon me back immediately.”

The aide nodded seriously, then stood in front of the monitor and gripped the weapon in hand tightly.

Under the management system’s arrangement, Tai Yin changed its body.

The Mecha, originally several meters tall, became a thirty-centimeter toy. The change in scale made everything around it seem extraordinarily large.

The only thing left inside was the main chip; none of the other chips could be brought along. The lack of strength made it feel quite unaccustomed.

“How do you feel now, Madam?” the management system’s bland voice rose again. “You wouldn’t want to stay this way forever, right? So just behave and listen to me.”

“…Management system, you’re definitely an awakened Artifact Spirit, aren’t you!”

“No, my creator just had a good sense of humor, so I’m a bit playful and unruly. I hope you like it. Now, have a smooth journey.”

Without waiting for Tai Yin to respond, the mechanical eyeball flew over, grabbed Tai Yin with a mechanical arm, and sent it to the testing room.

As soon as it landed, it noticed the room was filled with electronic Teddy Bears similar to itself, engaging in a variety of strange actions.

Although the previous electronic bears were a bit odd, these fellows were clearly even stranger.

These little bears ran all over the room, trying to pounce on anything they saw. Tai Yin, having just landed, naturally became their target and was quickly sought after.

However, even though Tai Yin had indeed lost many chips and its body parts weren’t very flexible, its combat instinct was still there.

These data had been integrated into its main chip, allowing it to easily avoid the pouncing little bears and not get tackled.

Although these bears didn’t seem very polite, for some unknown reason, being around them felt relaxing.

After feeling it out, it discovered that these little bears all had relaxation chips inside them, which could even have an effect on an Artifact Spirit, causing it to feel relaxed.

Although a warrior can only relax after death, looking at these guys, Tai Yin felt a sense of being back in the Newborn Artifact Spirit Training Center, playing with other little Artifact Spirits.

“…To be with them is also to find out where these guys came from, so I might as well condescend to experience it,” it thought.

But five minutes later, Tai Yin felt incredulous.

The little bears were continuously passing tests, sometimes sabotaging each other, creating all sorts of antics.

Despite having only three actions, they somehow managed to perform a myriad of movements with them, turning the plain tests into something wonderfully amusing and even managing to captivate Tai Yin.

This was a feeling it had never encountered before. A large number of relaxation chips created a faint force field, which also affected its own chip, allowing it to feel relaxed and happy.

When it was awakened and returned to its original body, its electronic eyes were still somewhat blurred.

Joy and relaxation were emotions that should not appear in a steel guard.

They were supposed to be shields, steel, emotionless war machines whose lifetimes were dedicated to pursuing the Far Traveler and then participating in the Far Traveler’s grand mission.

According to their analysis, the Far Traveler must have a great ideal, and the steel guards were definitely followers of the Far Traveler, joining in that great war.

Therefore, they could not rest or entertain themselves.

The steel fortress also carried out this policy; inside the fortress were only factories, training grounds, and the Newborn Artifact Spirit Training Center, among other buildings. No relaxing facilities were allowed here, and relaxation was not permitted.

But why was the feeling of relaxation so peculiar, so addictive…

Tai Yin thought for a long time, until the management system’s voice rang out, “Lord Tai Yin, I have organized your recent actions. Would you like to see your splendid performance?”

“What, what?”

“Okay, default consent. Starting playback.”

“Did I consent!”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

However, the management system ignored Tai Yin’s request and began to play back Tai Yin’s previous actions.

On the screen, Tai Yin, in the form of a Teddy Bear, began to run through levels with other Little Bears.

At first, it was a bit clumsy, with many steps not quite let loose, playing each segment timidly.

“How stiff, Mrs. Mrs., indeed.” The management system couldn’t help but sigh.

“Stop! Stop right now!”

But the management system ignored Tai Yin’s request and continued playing.

After a few tries, Tai Yin’s movements became skilled. It finally shed its idol burden and integrated with the other Little Bears.

In the physical sense.

The electronic Little Bears were not very destructive, but a flying tackle would result in a satisfying physical impact and a sense of achievement.

Moreover, most items in the scene were interactive, and one of the scenes was even in a kitchen where a group of Little Bears fought with steamed buns, fried dough sticks, and soy milk in a way that was both hilarious and intense.

Seeing the exceptionally happy playing Tai Yin, the management system couldn’t help but say, “This image is so cute, can I call you my daughter from now on, Lord Tai Yin?”

“I command you to stop now!”

“Received, continuing playback.”

And after dozens of games, Tai Yin was completely addicted.

The gaming experience, which Tai Yin had never touched before, made it fully immerse itself, eagerly restarting a game after every win or loss.

After a victory, it would strike a winner’s pose, after a defeat, it would quickly restart. The randomness and the mix of skill in the game made Tai Yin not care even if it lost, allowing it to participate joyously in the game.

Next to Tai Yin, the eyes of its aide-de-camp began to widen, the frequency of the power furnace inside increased, and the unprecedented scene in front of its superior was fresh and thrilling, even making it want to activate the recording function to capture the moment.

But then, it heard the sound of a gun’s safety being released.

A beam of light flashed past, and the management system’s screen was shot through, the melted screen flowing onto the floor.

Tai Yin did not put away its weapon but stared at its aide-de-camp, saying coldly, “This was an accident, do you understand?”

“Yes, Commander.”

“Leave, and then forget everything that happened here, understand?”

“Understood, Commander.”

Watching the aide-de-camp leave, Tai Yin sat in its chair, deciding it would never try the experience again.

Absolutely not.

After the war ended the next day, Tai Yin, back in the form of an electronic Little Bear, looked at the screen in front of it while hating its own weak willpower and excitedly joined the Little Bears’ adventure.
