After their dinner, the group of players returned to the room. Li Haoxuan as usual, was pushing Li Zhihuan's wheelchair while the older of the twin is carrying a tray of foods. They wanted to bring it over to their father but when they saw that he looked very busy, they stopped. The twin looked at each other before nodding their head in a tacit understanding and Li Haoxuan pushed the wheelchair towards the relaxation corner.
"Dad! We brought you your food. We'll place it here so eat up when you're done!" Li Haoxuan informed their father.
Li Wenyan glanced up from his screen to look over at his two sons. Then back at the screen. After contemplating for a while, he finally stood up and walked over to the twin's side.
Sitting on the couch, he leaned down to pick up the plate of fried rice from the tray. He could see his sons staring at him as he ate the first bite and couldn't help a smile forming on his face.
"Dad will eat properly. Do you have to watch dad like this?" Li Wenyan asked his two sons.
"Can't we? We just want to make sure dad finishes his food," Li Zhihuan said before he grabbed a piece of candies that was prepared on the table. He unwrapped the wrapper, but didn't eat it. Instead, he handed it over to his brother who ate it directly from his hand. "Dad, try not to overwork yourself again…"
There was worry in Li Zhihuan's tone as he looked up at his dad. "I mean… I am happy that I get to experience Glory, and walk, run and everything in that virtual world but, if those happiness came at the expense of your health, I'd rather not have it."
"Zhihuan…"
"Dad, if you want Zhihuan to be happy then you need to take care of your health too. You're our dad, ah! If anything happens to you, we'll both be sad. It's natural since you're the only one we have left," Li Haoxuan said and Li Wenyan's argument got stuck in his throat.
"Alright. Dad will take care. You two don't have to worry. Also, the problem with the headache is not as serious as it sounds," Li Wenyan told his sons. "With the medical officer's help, we found out the cause of it. It happens when humans exert their brain too much."
"So does that mean… we can't be in the game for too long?" Li Haoxuan asked.
"Don't worry. Dad can make a change in the system. But before that, we'll need the day's report from them," Li Wenyan glanced at the group of retired players who are now talking to some of the staff.
Li Haoxuan and Li Zhihuan also glanced over and they could see that one staff is struggling to write everything since the person he's in charge of is none other than Huang Shaotian.
"Oh, yeah. Dad! I think there's a bug in the server earlier," Li Haoxuan suddenly said. "Earlier, I met Skeleton King twice in a row, and then just before the server closes down, I encountered the Skeleton Mage. Both are hidden bosses whose encounter rate is lower than 3%. Can you check those?"
"This boy," Li Wenyan dropped his spoon so he could lightly flick his son's forehead. "When you were playing, we monitored the data. There's nothing wrong with the system. It's just your luck is too good."
"In this case, I wish it wasn't. It was hard…" Li Haoxuan complained.
Li Zhihuan just let out a chuckle before he reached his hand out and pats Li Haoxuan's arm. "You'll get used to it, Ah'Xuan."
"Li Haoxuan, Li Zhihuan, can you two come over for a while?" an employee called out to them, making the twins look over to his direction. "We also need your report."
"Oh. Got it! Dad, you must finish your food before you go back to work!" Li Haoxuan reminded his father who only gave him a thumb up.
Li Haoxuan steered Li Zhihuan's wheelchair to the employee and then took a seat on the chair beside Li Zhihuan.
"I'm going to ask you several questions. You need to answer it honestly, alright?" the employee said with a gentle smile on his face and the two twins nod their head.
"First question, how was the login interface?"
"Well, the first I encountered was an invalid login detail. I can't check the password at the time so I asked one of the staff and they fixed it," Li Haoxuan replied.
"Ah, yes. That was a bug. You?" the staff turned to Li Zhihuan.
"Nope. No problem at all," Li Zhihuan shook his head. "But, maybe you should change the way we input our details. I saw that in the game when sending private messages to other players, we have a panel of virtual keyboards. How about using that?"
The employee nods his head and put the suggestion down on his notebook. "Next question, how was the control in the game…?"
Questions after questions, both Li Haoxuan and Li Zhihuan answered them truthfully. Soon, the question and answer session are finally done and they were given free time.
"Tomorrow, please come again at 9 in the morning. We'll be doing a system upgrade and for the sake of efficiency, we're going to increase the amount of experience point you receive each time. That way, you should be able to reach the maximum level at the fastest time. I need players to check the heavenly domain challenge," one employee, who seems to be the leader of the project announced. "Tonight, you guys are free. Please relax and have fun. Sleep early so you won't suffer mental exhaustion tomorrow. Everyone is dismissed!"
The group left, returning to their room. But before exiting the room, Qiu Fei suddenly turned back and asked.
"Is there a computer room nearby where we can play normal Glory?"
His question reached Huang Shaotian's sharp ear and the man paused in his track.
"There is one on the same floor as the room you stayed in. It should be the third door to your left."
After hearing the staff's response, Huang Shaotian's face was full of glee. He rushed over to catch up to Ye Xiu who has yet to leave the room.
"Old Ye!!" Huang Shaotian called out for Ye Xiu. "There's a room where we can play the normal glory! Let's go PK now! Or is it that you're afraid of this ancestor? Come and PK! We'll settle the grudge from yesterday in the arena like a man!"
Ye Xiu turned to face Huang Shaotian with a smiling expression. "Sure. After you finished your challenge. Xiao Fei, Yifan, make sure you beat them. Oh, I forgot about my two new disciple Xiao Huan and Xiao Xuan. You have to beat them before you can face the big boss. Remember, if you lose against any of them, back to square one you go," the smug expression on Ye Xiu's face was enough to make Huang Shaotian bubbles up in anger.
"I'll beat them, alright! Just you wait, Old Ye!" Huang Shaotian expressed angrily before turning to Qiu Fei, Qiao Yifan, Li Haoxuan, and Li Zhihuan. "You four come with this ancestor now! Let this ancestor show you the horror of Blademaster! But since Xiao Xuan and Xiao Huan are still young, this master is willing to give you a handicap and you two can team up against me! Now you cannot say that I am bullying the junior!"
Li Haoxuan and Li Zhihuan who were suddenly included in the group suddenly felt nervous. Their hands started to sweat and they looked at each other.
"Do we have to?" Li Haoxuan asked.
"Well… It would be a good experience? Even though he's already retired, he still used to be a champion. Since we plan on going to play on the professional level anyway, might as well get as much experience as we can in this age?" Li Zhihuan replied.
"Alright then. Are you going for cleric?"
"Yes."
"Then… I'll go for paladin. You heard what God Ye said. If he lost, he has to go back to square one. That means, we'll have more chance of fighting against him if we make him tired early!" Li Haoxuan said as he planned to play the tank, hoping to buy as much time during the fight to gain as much experience as he could.
"That's a good idea! You can also keep changing your class that way! It's too bad that you can't use unspecialized due to the lack of weapon," Li Zhihuan said as he let out a heavy sigh, feeling that it was extremely pitiful that they can't take full advantage of this chance.
