I'm an Internet Cafe Owner?

Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Mission Completed, Resident Evil Acquired



At the moment Liu Yuan agreed for Kisara to become the network manager, he received a notification of mission completion.

Primary mission completed.

Rewards: 1 computer with accompanying equipment, 3000 yuan in cash, "Resident Evil/Bio-Hazard Full Series Realism Mode Edition."

With one employee, the rest area is open. The rest area is fully enclosed, and only store employees can enter.

New mission: Have five regular customers within a month.

Mission reward: Mall opening.

The mall refreshes games every month, which can be purchased with money.

Liu Yuan couldn't control who came from the internet cafe, but turning customers into regulars was the test of the boss and employees' abilities.

This wasn't urgent; according to Liu Yuan's observation, those two who left today would definitely come back again. Now, he needed to arrange for the employees recruited by the system.

"Kisara, right? Over there is the employee rest area. If you're tired, you can take a break inside. Come to work at 2 p.m. Remember to work six hours a day, got it?"

"Got it~ but~"

Kisara approached Liu Yuan, asking as if sticking to him, "Can I live here?"

"Live here? It's not impossible, but there's only one bed in the rest area. Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

Compared to being sealed in a cave, lying in bed for a nap felt so good.

"I don't mind, but no going upstairs. Get familiar with the items on the shelves before that."

"Understood~"

After closing the shop, Liu Yuan didn't have much to do. Equipment, food, and the like were maintained by the system. He just needed to keep the hygiene of the store.

The space wasn't large at the moment. With the newly opened rest area, his own living room, and the hall, one person could tidy up within a few hours.

After tidying up, Liu Yuan sat in front of the computer, happily opening the game.

The system rewarded him with the full series of Resident Evil, allowing him to choose from Generation 0 to 8, including various spin-offs.

What surprised Liu Yuan was that even animated movies were made into games?

After browsing through the brief plot and various levels, he found that apart from the beginning and the ending being the same, the middle was completely different, and the game was even more interesting than the movie.

"Let me try, which generation should I start with?"

When it comes to which installment of the Resident Evil series is classic, different people will have different opinions.

Veteran players might think of the first generation, where a glance and a smile can evoke a sense of coolness in the summer of that era.

Some might consider it to be the second generation, decryption, monster-fighting, and shipping, with the emotional entanglement between Leon and Ada touching countless hearts.

After that, each installment has countless fans, the love-hate relationship with "Claire," the first meeting of the two main characters, the hand-washing god of RE7-8 who gives everything for family and children in the first game.

If given a specific work directly, Liu Yuan wouldn't hesitate to start playing. But now with so many choices, he found himself in decision paralysis.

"Kisara, come here."

"Coming~" Kisara, who was familiarizing herself with the items on the shelves, came over.

"Here, pick one. Just choose whichever one feels right to you."

There's only one Resident icon, but upon opening it, there are options for different series. When the mouse points to a certain series, the corresponding series protagonist and a brief introduction appear on the screen.

"Which one looks good to you? This one is fine." Kisara pointed to Resident Evil 2, feeling more comfortable with this generation, and the woman in the red dress on top also matched her aesthetic.

Liu Yuan chose the Leon storyline, starting as a rookie cop reporting to the Raccoon City Police Department, meeting Claire, who is also in Raccoon City searching for her brother.

Kisara didn't care much about the plot; what she cared about was the immersive experience.

The Realism Mode version of Resident Evil doesn't have as many restrictions; rolling and jumping are all allowed.

But unlike the game version, there are no task prompts under the real difficulty of this game, the whole world is open, and the ending is unlocked by the player themselves.

And the impact of the previous work can be retained in the sequel. For example, if Liu Yuan accidentally kills Claire at the beginning, all the mainline quests related to Claire in the backseat will disappear, and a mandatory plot will be triggered when Leon and Chris meet in the sixth generation.

If you choose the game mode, there will be air walls blocking the player's actions, and there will be a relatively clear linear mainline to guide the player's exploration.

Liu Yuan had played through the mainline of the game many times before. What he wanted to experience was the Realism Mode.

As "Leon," he stopped at the convenience store entrance, noticing the crisis inside the convenience store, then turned and left Racoon City.

Leon's storyline cleared.

Then he started Claire's storyline, also turning and leaving Racoon City at the beginning.

Claire's storyline cleared.

The best completion time appeared, using a total of 2 minutes excluding the plot.

Kisara was dumbfounded to see this scene of game clearance.

She had never played games, but she had heard of them. To start by simply driving away at the beginning and still clear it, this...

"I've wanted to try this for a long time, and finally my dream has come true."

When he was playing Resident Evil 2 back then, he had a dream to just ride away from the chaos of the plot at the beginning and now the dream was fulfilled.

"Do you want to give it a try?"

"Me...? Can I?"

Kisara was excited; this game looked really fun, but she was only here for shelter. Was it really appropriate?

"As an employee, you can play games for free during non-working hours. Go ahead and play. I'll teach you."

"Okay!"

Playing until late at night, Liu Yuan, feeling a bit sleepy, yawned.

"It's getting late. I'm going to bed."

"Mmm."

"Don't stay up too late."

"Mmm."

Glancing at "Claire" exploring the city, Liu Yuan went back to his room to sleep.

...

At the same time, in the kingdom's slums, when Natsuki Subaru walked along with a little girl, there was a commotion as the giant elderly Rom was kicked out of his house.

"Rom? What's happening?"

Inside the house, there were magic fluctuations and continuous fighting sounds.

Natsuki Subaru saw familiar figures inside, the elf and the murderer who had killed him.

"Felt, leave it to me to take a step back."

Natsuki Subaru's hand had a shield and a long sword, the small shield giving a ridiculous feeling, and the long sword looked like cheap goods. It's hard to imagine what role this weapon could play.

He walked into the room with concentrated energy. Inside the room, a girl named Emilia was using magic to persist.

The terrifying woman, possessing a speed he could only barely observe, and richer combat experience than her opponent.

"It's okay, we can do it! We definitely can."

The shield and weapon in his hand gave Natsuki Subaru enough peace of mind, and the combat experience from fighting with The Soldier of Godrick for hours made him calm down.

Noticing an aura, Elsa glanced at the door.

Suddenly, there was an extra person in the room?

To the "Bowel Hunter," this person was just an appetizer, no! Not even an appetizer. Like a decoration, a shield that could be made by a roadside blacksmith.

She thought the person who came could be a strong one, but it turned out to be a bold and reckless kid.

Since he likes to be in the limelight, then let him contribute his intestines.

She instantly swept the distance and closed the gap between her and Subary

Her blade aimed at Natsuki Subaru's abdomen, but...

With a crisp "clang" sound, at the moment the blade was about to attack him, the shield on Natsuki Subaru's left arm bounced outward.

The successful parry made the Bowel Hunter lose balance, and Natsuki Subaru simultaneously swung his sword to execute a crit.

But the Bowel Hunter reacted even faster, bouncing away from Natsuki Subaru.

In just that moment, she felt the threat of death.

This person wasn't a reckless kid but a "warrior" with extremely special combat skills.

The resilience and determination in Natsuki Subaru's eyes at this moment made the Bowel Hunter considered a retreat.

This kind of momentum could only be cultivated in a life-and-death battle with a strong opponent. Faced with such a person, she lost her confidence.

On the other hand, this was the first time Natsuki Subaru successfully parrying in reality, and his confidence surged. He found the same feeling he had when he defeated the Soldier of Godrick.

He can win! He can win. This skill learned from the game can defeat this enemy.
