Wu Guoyi hung up immediately at Mu Qingshui’s unreasonable request.

Turning off the table lamp, Wu Guoyi wanted to continue sleeping at first, but Mu Qingshui’s words were repeating themselves in his mind.

As he couldn’t fall asleep, Wu Guoyi finally turned on the lamp and walked into the reading room.

He rubbed his eyes and turned his computer on. When the machine was booted up, he logged into the admin page of Platform173, and clicked on the list of games pending verification.

Among the hundred plus games, it took him quite a while to find the one named Battle Online mentioned by Mu Qingshui.

Just like what Mu Qingshui said, the game was surprisingly small, only 800 megabytes. Wu Guoyi was still for a moment, before he took down the VR headset, connected it to the PC, and downloaded the game into it.

With an intention of testing the waters, Wu Guoyi entered the game.

When the game booted up, Wu Guoyi’s eyes were wide open. The graphics were perfect, just like what Mu Qingshui said.

Wu Guoyi, still doubtful, continued to search far and wide in the game for bugs like invisible walls and such.

He spent the whole night playing, until he entered the Ghost Mountains and met a netherworld creature. He was knocked out with one hit and it was game over.

After quitting the game, he was still quite excited. A moment of contemplation passed before he fished out his phone from his pocket and called the platform’s manager.

The manager of Platform173, who picked up the phone freaked out. Usually, Wu Guoyi would not call him.

“Sun Chi, find out who developed Battle Online right now, immediately, at this instant! Then, send me their contact information.”

Manager Sun was a little puzzled, but he immediately received the task.

He did not dare delay his boss’s order, so he quickly logged into the backend portal of the website.

But when he found the game, he noticed that only the developer’s website was noted down, with no mention of their telephone numbers. This made him anxious.
