Release rate: 1/day

Author's Notes: My practice novel renewed after a long hiatus! Please support and add some reviews. 

P.S. Please go easy on me!

Launch day.
It was still an hour away from launch.
In the morning, Zhang Ye held in his hands the documents that Fat Sis had sent to him. He went through it several times in earnest, analyzing the information for domestic sales of puzzle games in recent years. In the data, it not only included the domestically produced casual puzzle games, but also an abundance of foreign puzzle game titles.
Flying Leopard.
Casual domestic puzzle game.
Price: Free.
Sales numbers: 800 downloads on launch day.
Kamikaze.
Japanese turn-based strategy puzzle game.
Price: 9 RMB for mobile version. Not available for PC at the moment.
Sales numbers: 16,000 downloads on launch day.
Fishing Master 2.
Country of origin: America.
Price: 19 RMB for PC version, 6 RMB for mobile version.
Sales numbers: 95,000 downloads on launch day.
And so on.
This was the current distribution of numbers for the casual domestic puzzle games in China. It could clearly be seen from the data of the 27 titles of games the disparity of the domestically made games to the foreign-made ones. The domestically made game, Flying Leopard, had apparently taken a year's time and a cost of 10 million RMB to develop—and was temporarily free to play—only managed a figure of 800 downloads on launch day. Describing it as a miserable result was already a nice way to put it. Then, looking at the foreign-made games, most of the titles had downloads crossing 10,000 on their release days, with the best performer being Fishing Master 2, which built on the success of Fishing Master 1. Its popularity showed with their market share in addition to receiving close to 100,000 downloads on launch day. With this momentum, Fishing Master 2's sales figures would cross 1 million downloads in only a matter of time, and shouldn't be difficult to achieve either.
Of course, the results of Fishing Master 2 still couldn't be compared with those large-scale, famous RPG series, among other popular titles. Nor should they be mentioned in the same breath, since how could you compare a game that was measured in megabytes to one that was measured in gigabytes? And that was the status of puzzle games. The Fishing Master series had an absolute dominance in the puzzle games genre, and was also one of the most popular puzzle games as well!
After reading through the document, Zhang Ye had a heavy heart.
The situation was grim!
The domestic games market did not have much hope!
Now, it just depended on how Plants vs. Zombies would perform. Not only did he want to make a stand for himself, he also wanted to help domestically made games make a stand for themselves…Uh, although it was true that Plants vs. Zombies itself was a foreign-made game to begin with, but then who would know about that in this world?
Hmph!
If this bro says that it is a domestically made game, then it is a domestically made game!
You gonna bite me??
... 
The countdown toward the release began!
Three minutes.
Two minutes.
One minute.
At 8 AM, Plants vs. Zombies was officially launched as the resources were made available for download in this world, done in accordance to this world's market conditions with a new method of distribution!
Zhang Ye clicked to download the game. The internet speed was quite slow and the game that was only several hundred megabytes actually took five minutes to download and even got stuck at 90% downloaded. Sitting at his computer, Zhang Ye did not feel like there was any progress at all. But unknown to him, at this moment, many other people were experiencing the same issue!
At a game download website, an uproar kicked up in the comments section!
"Why can't Plants vs. Zombies be downloaded!? My gosh!"
"Why don't you try a different downloader? I can download the game!"
"Me too, but it's really slow!"
"It's slower than a glacier! What's going on!?"
"Same for me, and I have a fucking 100 Mbps connection! But why does it feel like I am back in the era of dial-up? 5 kilobytes per second? Just how slow can it get!"
"Fuck, there are too many people downloading this!"
"Let's switch to a mirror and try! There should be many other servers providing this game for download!"
"Don't bother, it's all the same. I came over from a different server, but the speed over there is about the same. Hai, let's just wait a while!"
"Hahaha, my download is done! I'll go ahead and play first!"
"Fuck you, previous poster!"
"*flips table*!"
"What dogshit server is this!"
"Who the hell is causing this internet slowdown in my home?"
"It's so slow that I'm crying!"
There were countless comments!
The swearing from tens of thousands of people was a very shocking sight!
... 
At Beijing Television Station.
In the program team office of Do You Remember.
A loud shout of surprise rang out in the office. "I succeeded in downloading it!"
It was Hou Ge. After his exclamation, he quickly proceeded to install the game. It didn't take long for the game to be installed. Within thirty seconds, he was at the game's menu.
In that moment, Dafei, Hou Di, Xiao Lu, and a few others all surrounded him immediately.
Xiao Lu said in frustration, "We're all on the same network! Why is my download taking so long?"
Hou Ge chuckled, "It's down to character, our character!"
Dafei urged, "Hurry up and start the game!"
Hou Di said, "I can't wait any longer. Since this game was produced by Teacher Zhang, it definitely has to be fun! I've even resisted playing the demo!"
Hou Ge clicked his mouse with a swagger. "It's starting, it's starting!"
The game commenced!
Unlike the demo, this full version of Plants vs. Zombies did not bring the player directly into the game mode. Instead, there was a tutorial mode to help players become familiarized with game, and the game character that appeared to guide the player made Xiao Lu, Dafei, and everyone else freeze!
Was this Zhang Ye?
An NPC?
Crazy Zhang Ye?
Looking at that 2D cartoon character that vaguely resembled like Zhang Ye, everyone suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Why is Teacher Zhang also appearing in the game as a guest character!"
"Seems like this video game company really respects Teacher Zhang a lot."
"No duh. This game was designed by Zhang Ye in the first place. Do you think it would be difficult for him to make an appearance in it?"
"Hehehe, Teacher Zhang's pretty smart about it, even endorsing himself all the way into the game. Can you imagine if this game really blows up? How much would Teacher Zhang's popularity increase by? This is goddamn equivalent to pervasive soft advertising for him. You can't shut him out even if you wanted to!"
"I was still wondering why Teacher Zhang crossed over to making games. So it was because he had ulterior motives instead. Who says that Teacher Zhang is being too much of a jack of all trades? In fact, I think that rather than a jack of all trades, he knows exactly what he is doing. Even though taking the bar exam and making games do not seem like logical moves, all those activities actually affect his popularity and exposure to the media!"
"Stop rambling and just play the game!"
... 
Peking University.
School had reopened, but on this day, the campus was quieter than usual. The people who would usually take a stroll beside the artificial lake were nowhere to be seen.
Some students who were passing by the area were surprised at this.
"Eh, why is it so quiet around here today?"
"Everyone's in their dorms."
"In their dorms? Aren't they going to get breakfast?"
"Don't you know? Today is the launch day of Plants vs. Zombies!"
"Aiyo! It's today?"
"So do you understand now? Teacher Zhang has always been good to us in the past, teaching us his knowledge and leading us to scold the foreign dignitaries. Even during the recent student recruitment, he helped Peking University stop Tsinghua University's antics. Knowing this, who among us do not appreciate him? Who wouldn't be moved? We don't know when Teacher Zhang can come back to teach us. Since he's releasing a new product now, we must support him even if it kills us! The Vice Chairman of the Student Council of Peking University and a few other officers of the council have already started calling on everyone to show their support for Plants vs. Zombies!"
"That's right! I won't acknowledge any teachers in the school except Zhang Ye!"
"We must give our support! No two ways about it!"
"Fuck, I better get back to my room then! I have to download the game and purchase a serial code as well!"
... 
At one of the female dormitories.
Crosstalk actor Yao Jiancai's daughter, Yao Mi, had already started playing Plants vs. Zombies with a few of her friends. All that could be heard coming from the dorm room were exclamations, laughter, and excited voices. 
"Aiya, the zombie is approaching, it's approaching!"
"Are you stupid! Plant the Peashooter!"
"Haha, you got the zombie! Ah, another wave is coming!"
"Ah, I don't have enough 'sun' anymore! I have no resources!"
"Why are you guys so terrible? I've already passed the third level!"
Yao Mi was the first to pass the first three levels of the game. After she had completed the third level, a popup appeared and prompted her to enter a serial code. She needed to buy a serial code before she could continue playing. Without even hesitating, Yao Mi immediately made the payment online. It was only a few yuan, an amount that not too many people would care about. Afterwards, she continued clicking her mouse excitedly as she began the fourth level. The more she played, the more addicted and excited she got!
"This is so fun!"
"I can't stop at all!"
"Mimi, tell us why our Teacher Zhang Ye is so awesome!"
... 
A video game company in Beijing.
The Gaming Research Department employees had arrived early for work today. No one was idle as all of them were here to do the same thing: download Plants vs. Zombies! Other people might play games for entertainment and leisure, but for them, it was for work, in order to learn from the experience of others.
In the office, the game's soundtrack reverberated.
"Hai, the full version of the game is quite different from the demo!"
"You've only just realized? There are so many game modes, but they're still grayed out at the moment!"
"The levels are also different. They're much richer than in the demo. I was just mentioning that if the levels are just going to continue on so monotonously, the repetitive levels will surely cause gameplay fatigue. But after I said that, the next level immediately went into night mode. There's a difference in the strategy of fighting and the type of plants that can be planted in night mode as compared to day mode? How interesting!"
"The person who designed this game must definitely be an expert! If you go on further in the game, there's even a pool mode. Reading from the introduction, there's also a roof mode. There are different strategies for fighting in each mode, so not only does that increase the playability of the game, it also does not cause gameplay fatigue to the player! Is…is this really a creation of Zhang Ye's? Without seven or eight years of experience in game design, how can he possibly have grasped the mind of a player so well? The demo was already amazing, but this full version is even better. After completing a level, I want to go on to the next one immediately. I think that after this level, it's be enough. But then somehow, I still go ahead and click to start the next level!"
"If this game doesn't go viral, I could never justify that!"
"Zhang Ye is indeed just like his reputation!"
"Who knows, Plants vs. Zombies could really lead the charge for our domestically developed video games!"
"This is such a godly game! It's really too goddamn godly! There's actually a day when our domestically made games could come up with such a godly work!? How encouraging!"
The industry insiders were exploding with excitement!
The Internet also exploded with comments from the netizens!
"This is so fun!"
"So the demo really was just the tip of the iceberg!"
"Is this really a game made by a domestic video game company? Did Zhang Ye really come up with the entire design of this game? This is too incredible! I can't believe this!"
"A boost for our domestically made games!"
"I've already recommended it to friends and relatives!"
"This game truly is constantly full of surprises! The more I play it, the more fun I have!"
There were also celebrities who posted on Weibo.
A C-list singer named Wang Qiqi posted a link to Plants vs. Zombies with the accompanying words: "It's so good I'm crying!"
A movie star named Chen Qi posted: "Recommending a good game my friend recommended to me. It's called Plants vs. Zombies. Please support domestically made games!"
Zhang Ye did not know those two people, neither had he come across them before. The reason for their recommendation posts was clearly because this game had truly touched them.
Naturally, Zhang Ye's friends did not idle around either.
Chen Guang and Fan Wenli highly recommended it!
Yao Jiancai highly recommended it!
Dong Shanshan highly recommended it!
At the same time, the media was also making its moves!
A few video game websites had already published their analyses and review of the full version of Plants vs. Zombies. The reviews were very good, just like how the industry insiders rated it! Websites, newspapers, and other entertainment media's reporters did not idle around either. A puzzle game that clearly had nothing to do with the entertainment circle had actually been pushed to the front page or into the headlines as the topic generated massive interest! It was like a wildfire!
"An amazing, classic domestically created puzzle game! "
"Can Zhang Ye continue writing his cross-industry legend?"
"Some industry insiders frank opinions: Not optimistic of Plants vs. Zombies' sale figures!"
"Good but unable to attract an audience?"
"A legend of a domestically made puzzle video game might have begun! "
"Possibility of poor sales? Don't be too pessimistic, don't speak too soon, just remember! The creator of this game is—Zhang, Zhang Ye! "
"The turnaround of domestically made video games? "


Zhang Ye was originally a mundane college graduate with aspiring dreams to become a star, but unfortunately has below average looks and height. However one day, he woke up and suddenly found himself in a parallel world! 
It’s like the same world, but wait a minute…many brands, celebrities and even famous works from his world changed and are gone in this new world! Armed with the profound literary knowledge of his previous world and a heaven-defying Game Ring that gives him magical items, stats and skills, Zhang Ye embarks on a journey to pursue his life-long dream of becoming famous!
Follow Zhang Ye as he takes the new world by storm, one plagiarized piece at a time, to hilarious reactions!

Felix did nothing else but stare at the ceiling absent-mindedly after landing on the most hated format game for those who were confident in their strength to beat the shit out of their contenders. The many variables within its games nullified their absolute strength.
In Felix's previous life, Puzzles games were actually his favorite format. He didn't win them all, but he still had a good win rate while playing them in comparison to other formats.
One single small mistake could even eliminate the 1st ranker player, one lucky opportunity could make the last ranker clinch the win. This kind of uncertainty was Felix's jam. His trash bloodlines weren't making it easier to compete in battles format games, but in puzzle ones, at least he had a shot.
If the death race luck meterage decided who would have better opportunities to clinch the championship, in the case of puzzle games, luck decided whether one emerges as champion or not.
However, without the necessary intelligence to take advantage of a lucky opportunity during the game, a player could only waste it.
Intelligence was still the true deciding factor to perform the best of one's ability within puzzle games.
Dejected, Felix rubbed his eyelids while sighing. He gave a spiteful glare to his hands, which kept causing him misfortune.
"I dare you to let me down again." He threatened them like a lunatic, "I swear I will cut you down and heal you back up."
He rubbed them nervously while eyeing the green button that was for spinning the next wheel, which had hundreds of puzzle games within it.
"F*ck it." He swore and pressed the button forcefully, not worrying anymore about what happens.
The wheel span rapidly again. However, this time Felix didn't leave it spin for even two seconds before he stopped it.
The wheel gradually slowed its speed until it stopped completely. Felix glanced at the chosen game and had a bad feeling after seeing the word maze. He clicked on the game and its details were displayed in front of him.
// Game Format: Puzzles. (Maze edition)
Game Name: Shuffle Maze
Participants Number: 95 (Still increasing)
Integration allowed: From lesser purity to peak stage 1 of replacement.
Ranks allowed: silver and bronze ( This is a silver game)
Maze map: ???
Surprise Addition: No.
Prizes Pool: High-grade stones, Peak-grade stones, Instant Recovery Potion, Hateful Miasma breath, Spiritual Flat Bone...
Rules of the game:
1) Players get dropped randomly in one giant maze. (The distance between the exit and the dropped spot is fixed for every player.)
2) Creating Alliances is allowed.
3) The maze walls shuffle after every 30 minutes.
4) The duration of each shuffle is 10 seconds.
5) Players can glimpse beyond the walls in each shuffle, but won't be able to move during it.
6) There are hidden compartments in the maze. (teleportation circles, treasure chests, traps...)
7) Treasures that are in the open areas are guarded by beasts. (Beasts strength increase based on the chest rank.)
8) Game points can be earned from eliminations, beast hunts, and treasure chests.
9) The player first to leave through the maze exit wins.
10) The game duration is two and a half hours.
11) The player with the most points after the duration ends wins.
For more information please open your SG profile Interface.
Good luck to all participants.//
Just like Felix feared, the game rules included hidden teleportation circles. A luck-based addition that could teleport a player near the exit, giving him a free win.
But to balance the game, that would be quite unlikely. This meant, the player would only be teleported in a large diameter around the exit, and that's only if he got lucky. In worst cases, he might be sent back to where he started!
That being said, Felix strangely wasn't looking at the 6th rule but actually had all of his attention attracted by the 8th rule!
"Can I do it regardless?... Maybe it can work even in a puzzle game." He kept murmuring under his breath in a trance-like state. 
He felt that his luck turned upside down too quickly. Just now, he was feeling horrible over landing on a puzzle format, but after seeing the 8th rule, a plan formed in his head. A plan, if executed correctly, he would obtain a shit load of game points.
The game added the 8th rule in order to help the less intelligent, or simply players who had abilities totally useless in locating the exit. They just needed to hunt for game points and hope that no one manages to find the exit before the game duration ends.
This game might be a puzzle type, but still, the SGA always left leeway for those with low IQ in some way or form. After all, no one wanted to watch a game that had 100 players, but only 3 were active within the field.
...
"Hopefully it works."
After a couple of minutes of deep pondering, Felix finally woke up from his daze. He lifted his head and saw that the wheel was still in front of him. He swiped it away from his face while requesting the Queen to search online for his game.
A moment later, a list that had only 3 shuffle mazes games was displayed before Felix. Those games were being played out in the entire Galaxy. 
Each game was from a different empire. This meant, the game Felix was currently on had only players from the Mariana empire. 
Felix's rank was too low to join galaxy-wide games that included players from all empires. He needed to reach gold for him to compete in that level.
He clicked on the game that was in the middle and was transferred to another web tab that showcased all the public details of the game.
Just like before, he pressed on the player list and was met with a long string of unique players' names.
//Participants List:
> Chrome Rising_1344: Bronze Rank, High-Tier Wins 3 / Losses 4. (For more details click on the name)
> Cold Bounty_1224: Silver Rank, Mid-Tier, Wins 3 / Losses 6. (For...)
>...
> Hellstorm_7754: Silver Rank, High-Tier, Wins 8 / Losses 9. (For...)
> Spirit Visage_2199: Silver Rank, Peak-Tier, Wins 6 / Losses 3 (For...)
> Unpaid Landlord_6996: Bronze Rank, Mid-Tier, Wins 1 / Losses 0. (For...)
>...
> Solar Mist_7778: Silver Rank, Peak-Tier, Wins 7 / Losses 4 (For...)
> Farphobia_3355: Silver Rank low Tier, wins 3 / losses 5. (For...) //
Not surprised a bit that at least 80 players were silver ranked, Felix simply kept on reading the list in a nonchalant manner. 
He already knew that he would be placed in a silver ranked game, even though he was still in bronze. This was the result of Match Making Rating, or in short MMR.
Since Felix won his first game, it meant he was good enough to start playing against only veterans and hardcore players instead of unranked newbies. 
This rarely happens though, since the majority of unranked players actually end up losing at least 3 of their placement games or even all of them. This meant, they would start normally climbing from low bronzer to silver.
MMR affected all the players, not just Felix. Any player who had way more wins than losses get placed in games above his rank. 
As for those who had more losses than wins, they remain playing in the same rank instead of being placed in lower rank games. 
The SGA wasn't stupid to let that happen, as they knew that most players would start losing intentionally to be put in lower brackets and have an easier time competing with newbies. This wasn't a video game, where one gets rewarded only virtual points after he wins.
In the SG, winning meant getting a free wish to fulfill one's desires. In other words, every win was worth it, even in bronze rank.
Although Felix could be said that he was affected negatively by the MMR since he was put in a higher rank game, he didn't see it as such. He actually preferred so, as it meant, the wish would have a silver rank limit while he was still in bronze. 
This was a bonus for those managing to clinch the win over higher-ranked players than them.
Soon, Felix began scouting the highest-ranked players in the list, marking all the threats he planned on adding to his plan. 
He first started off with peak-tiered silver players. He picked them one by one and made sure to do detailed homework on their bloodline abilities, strengths, and weakness. Anything that was public about them, he made sure to remember it well.
He didn't want any surprises to f*ck up his plan.
...
A couple of hours went by, and Felix had studied 15 players all at once. He found some names that he somewhat recalled in his previous life, like Solar Mist and Hound Stench. One of them got famous immensely 7 years from now while the other had a unique characteristic that set him apart from a lot of bloodliners. 
However, the player that Felix actually remembered thoroughly, was named Birds Call. He didn't expect that the princess of the Maganda tribe would actually be in his game. He honestly didn't want to interact with her one bit.
Right now, Felix was refreshing the list every two minutes, wanting to see if there would be any new addition before he called it a quit. After a few refreshes, he saw two players joining the list. Mastermania, and EL Truca.
He clicked on Mastermania's name and was transferred to his profile page.
'Oh!'
His eyes shone with delight after finding out that he was actually an idol, popular enough to own a fan club with millions of members.
"Such free juicy exposure." He grinned while rubbing his hands in a wicked manner.
Players loved those kinds of popular idols the most, as by eliminating them they get a wide media exposure, thus turning them into semi-famous players instantly with low effort.
Felix planned to do so as well.
He needed as much exposure as possible, as relying only on his fan club to bring more fans was not enough to put him within everyone's radars.
The only ways to do so was by either winning games, and winning them magnificently, or eliminating popular players and idols.
That's how famous players were born before. Fan clubs were only by-products of that.
Shortly after, Felix closed the list tab and changed his outfit to training one. He planned to head to the training center to practice in his room.
Although he didn't receive the maze map, nothing stopped him from trying to mimic one by relying on the previous Shuffle Maze games.
Since there was no hidden addition in this game, it meant that the only difference within it would be the maze layout and hidden compartments places.
After he wore his outfit he entered his car, which was inside his garage, and drove speedily towards the Center.


Felix Maxwell was destined to be a loser, born on one of the weakest races and on the least favorable of situations, he was forced to face adversity head-on as he traveled across the vast universe where dangers laid in every corner, one day traveling in hopes of riches he stumbled upon a ruin where a supreme being laid imprisoned, in a stroke of bad luck the being laid its eyes on him and tried to take over his body, forcing itself upon him.

but fate hadn't given up on him!

he woke up in his younger body, 20 years in the past with the fallen being trapped in his soul.

 In his past life he had been a loser, giving up on things mid-way and never striving for greatness, he was a side character who made the strong shine even brighter, but not on this life.

he swore to himself he would strive for glory, he would take advantage of his knowledge and emerge as a supreme being!

I'm back at my house in my room just wasting time and playing around. I just waste my time like this often. It's like going through a current of water having no idea which way it'll go. The papers in my room are just a sign of, my failure, however, I can't seem to get rid of them. I want to crumble them and rip them, yet I don't.


 Giving up on myself is the only reason why I waste time like this. I can try to deny it, but I think I gave up on myself long ago. I still don't understand why I kept the abhorrent papers around. The papers make me frustrated and angry, so why keep them around. I hate myself for not being able to understand. I feel like every time, I try to make sense of it. It  just ends up making me more confused and frustrated.


Should I give up on my dream. Is that right. Am I not suited to make games? Do, I not have enough talent. Do, I not have the drive, do I not have the determination, and do I not have the passion. 

I can't help but feel jealous of those who found their place in life, and fit in like the missing piece to a puzzle. If, I were to describe myself, I'd say, I wasn't even part of the puzzle, I belong to a  different box

 Yeah, a different set. I can't solve this puzzle, because I don't fit in

Join A young boy who's not confident is his endeavors to become a video game designer. He doesn't feel the pressure and that's what makes it all the more worse. He's surrounded by talent, will he break or continue to be broken and broken over again to get to his goal.

"I know…" Sheng Ruming glanced at her lips and the next second he pounced on her like a hungry wolf. 'Lixi, I will make sure it will be the happiest moment in our life!'
Luo Lixi's head bumped against a soft cushion and it rolled on the floor. She was more angry rather than shy.
He pressed on her body from above and wanted to cuddle her because he was happy but Luo Lixi abruptly kicked him and the man fell on the floor.
Sheng Ruming was dumbfounded and glanced at her in shock. It was too much for him to digest that she would do this to him.
"Why?"
"Don't always act like a hooligan! The door is open!" She gritted her teeth against each other.
"So what…" 
Luo Lixi sat up on the sofa and hurriedly adjusted her dress. Then, she stood up and ran towards the open door.
"Where are you going, baby?" Luo Lixi asked the little girl who was standing before the elevator.
"You are busy. So I will come later." Sarah turned around and told her in her sweet baby voice. But her face was strange. There wasn't any lovely expression like she always showed.
"Sister isn't busy, not at all. Come." Luo Lixi brought her inside the penthouse. Sheng Ruming had already stood up. He narrowed his eyes as the little silhouette came in sight.
"Good morning, uncle." Sarah bowed slightly.
"Hmm." 
Sarah's face turned sad.
Luo Lixi glared at him fiercely because of his cold reply. Sheng Ruming saw it. He was sure she would reprimand him later and it's unpleasant.
 "Good morning… Sarah. What are you doing here in the morning?" The man saw her school uniform and asked, "Will you go to your school?"
"School has ended. I came here directly when I knew sister is at home. The receptionist uncle told me." 
Then, Sarah turned towards Luo Lixi. "I just came back. Also, my home is empty. Sister, come with me. Let's play video games again." Sarah held her pants and shook it.
"Alright." 
"Yay! Hug me." 
So, Luo Lixi had to hug the child. Without leaving any words behind, both of them walked out.
Sheng Ruming saw them as his arms were crossed on his chest. Then, he walked to the study room. There he sat on the leather chairs. 
Before him was his laptop. While turning it on, he called someone, "We will return tomorrow. The destination is Long city."
After the call ended, his eyes turned to the laptop. The man decided to emerge himself in his tasks before those were sorted out.
*** ***
After both Luo Lixi and Sarah went to the 19th floor's penthouse, she helped the girl to change into a comfortable dress.
"Let's play a game."
Luo Lixi shook her head. "Did you finish the puzzle?"
As they talked, both of them reached Sarah's big play room. 
"I can't finish it. It's too hard!" Both of them walked up to the big puzzle on the floor. It had onerous 200 pieces was difficult to put in place.
"You are a baby, that's why you are saying it's hard. But it's easy. Come, I will help you."
Luo Lixi sat down and then took the chubby child on her thighs. "Place it here. Try this…"
As Luo Lixi instructed, Sarah placed those pieces on the places from a box. 
The puzzle was of a cute pikachu with togepi. Both of them spent most of their time trying to match.
"Sister, you also failed." Sarah said as she stared at the messed up puzzle.
'I made a fool of myself before the child!' She took hold of her loosened hair and made a bunch which rested on top of her head.
"Don't give up, Sarah. Let's try until it's done!" She fisted her hand and tried to give the girl motivation.
Sarah nodded her head vigorously and shouted, "Okie~"
So the two females, one small and one big again started to work on the puzzle. When they finally matched that at the third attempt, Sarah clapped her hands loudly.
"Yay! Finally!"
At the kid's joyful laughter, Luo Lixi smiled. "Look it's done."
Sarah nodded her head. But then, her face became sad. Luo Lixi saw this and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Sister, uncle is a badie." She pouted her cheeks.
"What?! Why is he a badie?!" 
Sarah continued to say, "I saw, he pushed you down and must have beat you. I was so scared that I ran away."
Luo Lixi turned speechless. "He didn't beat me."
"But I saw. In our school, there is also a bad boy who once pushed down a boy and punched him. It's the same." 
'What should I say now?' Luo Lixi thought to say something. "It was an accident. He didn't beat me at all. Look, Sister is alright. Three is no bruises."
Sarah saw Luo Lixi's face and there wasn't anything. She felt relieved.
"Gosh! I thought, I should call my father. It's good that you are okay." The girl stood up from her thighs and tightly hugged her.
"Sarah, don't mention it again in front of outsiders." Luo Lixi told her in a deep voice. 
"Mommy…"
"No. Not before mommy as well. Promise me." Luo Lixi raised her pinky before Sarah and asked, "Promise?".
Sarah immediately hooked her own little pinky around hers. "Promise. Not before mommy."
"Hey, not before everyone."
"Not before everyone." Sarah answered as both of them tightly hooked their pinky fingers. 
"Done." Luo Lixi said as she was pleased. She vividly remembered what Yuexin told her once about the sound coming from the balcony.
Afterwards, they played video games together. As well as watching some anime. It was the first time as Luo Lixi even saw those childish things.
Some hours had passed already. Luo Lixi saw the time on the clock of the play room."Why isn't your mommy back yet?"
"I don't know. She will come back soon." Sarah rubbed her .


[Completed] Luo Lixi was once a lovely and bright child loved by many people. She had many little dreams in her life. After the death of her parents, her only close family was her grandfather and little brother. 

She thought they loved her as much as she did. but a betrayal from her brother, Luo Lixiang made her world view crumble to dust.

She was heartbroken and vowed never to love someone in her life.

But a certain someone came to her life unexpectedly and made her waver in her vow. He was also a person who had many goals and ambitions to achieve. He was the one who taught her to live for herself and to love him.

She came to know a side of herself that she didn't know exists till then.

Sheng Ruming said as he pressed her head in his chest. "Are you listening? Listen carefully. This heart beats only for you. You're the only girl I loved from my young days till now. Back then I was immature, didn't know what to say or do to please you...but now." He lifted her chin with his right hand as he looked at her eyes as if staring straight at her soul. 


Luo Lixi was shaking as she felt her heart was pounding rapidly. This stimulation was too much for her. As he forced her to face him, just looking at those familiar black eyes caused her to feel tingling in her heart. 


As her hot tears kept falling she heard a deep voice rang by ears, "Listen carefully. I had said this back then, but you didn't believe me yet thought I was joking with you. Now I'll say this again..." She turned her face to him as she heard his next words, "I love you..."

"Everything is going according to plan, we can start whenever you want." My youngest son tells me. "Good, we're going to attack the smaller packs first and attack them in the order from weak to strong, that will destroy that bond of them." I tell him. 

"Which pack are we going to attack first?" He asks me. "Let's start with the cherry blossom pack, they are so small it's just a small town. Next we will attack Alpha Andrew's pack, the Sunflower pack." I tell him.

Ange/Alira's POV 

I'm talking with my sisters and their siblings and friends in the living room while our mates are working. The memories they share sound so fun, but sadly I missed all of it because of the attack. 

Of course I'm happy at the pack I was rased but I just wished I could visit my old pack. "When are we going to visit the Sun flower pack?" I ask them. That's the name of their pack. 

"Come this weekend! It will be my birthday!" Yasmine says excited. "Oh my god! I forgot to buy you a present!" Mia says panicking. "You always forget that though." Yasmine says. 

"I know but this year I will give you a present on your birthday itself." Mia says. "So are we going to ask the guys to bring us?" I ask excited. 

"They will have to, I'm not going to miss the birthday party of my baby sis." Mia says determined. "Then we will see you this weekend." Ace says and gets up. 

"Do you guys really have to go?" Chiara says. "We have to sadly but we will see each other this weekend." Oliver says. 

"I wish we could stay but we can't." Yasmine says and hugs Mia. "Why though?" Leilani asks. They look at each other. "We're not sure we only just got a message from our Alpha that there will be a meeting tonight at the plaza and every packmember has to be there." Asher says. 

"Well it must be important then." Leilani says with a worried undertone. "It will probably be nothing special, once in a while he calls everyone to the plaza for all sorts of things." Oliver says. 

"Yeah last time it had to do with renovation." Asher says. "Or maybe it's something about his son's mate, I heard rumours that he was seen with a girl." Yasmine says. 

Leilani's worried face expression dissapears. "Did he finally meet his mate? That took long." Mia says. "He is younger than you though and you found your mate, well mates at 22." Yasmine says. Mia glares at her for a second. 

"At least I already found my mates." Mia defends herself. Yasmine rolls her eyes but laughs. "We really have to go now." Oliver says to Ace. Ace looks at his phone. "Right we still have to drive for a few hours." He says. 

We all give them a goodbye hug. "See you this weekend!" Yasmine says and they leave. 

~*~*~*~ 

After a few hours the boys arrive. Mia storms towards them. "Can you bring us to the store?" She asks. "Why?" Juan asks confused. 

"Because I still have to buy a present for my baby sis, oh and we have to go to our pack this weekend by the way because we go to her birthday." Mia says. 

"Uh sure." Jesse says. He looks at Jaxon who looks like he's thinking. "We are free this weekend so we can go." He says. 

"Can we also stay for the night? Her birthday is on sunday but can we please go saturday?" Mia asks. "Yeah sure whatever." Jaxon says. "Yay!" She says and hugs him. "Let's go shopping!" Mia says and practically storms out of the door. 

~*~*~*~ 

"When you said you were going to get a birthday present for your little sister, you didn't say you were going shopping for hours." Jesse complains who is holding a few of her bags. 

"Duh because then you wouldn't bring us." She says. "Can we go home now? The stores already closed." Jonah complains. 

"Well they will stay open for their Alpha's and future Luna's so no." Chiara says with a smile. We have been shopping for 3 hours now while the stores closed 2 hours ago. 

"You're going to make us bankrupt." Jaxon complains who is also holding her bags. Actually all of them are holding all of our bags. 

"Aren't you as an Alpha rich?" Chelsea says. "We have more money but we're not rich." Juan says. "We actually almost reached our limit." Jace says but Mia ignores his comment and looks at other expensive things. 

"Hey Chelsea can you help me?" I ask her because she's the one closest to me. "Sure with what?" She asks me. "I don't really know Yasmine and I don't know what to buy for her, can you help me search for a present?" I ask her. 

"Sure" She says. "Yasmine likes things like clothes, make-up, games and kick boxing. But the others already bought her clothes and make-up." She says while walking to a gaming store while I follow her. 

"I was planning on giving her one of her favourite games." She says. I look at the game consoles. I never was a gamer type but I have played a few games once at my friends house. 

"Which game should I give her?" I ask her while looking at the fighting games. "She likes crime solving games and puzzle games, especially puzzle games that are crime solving themed." She says. "Oh then we have something in common" I say. 

"You like games as well?" She asks me. "Well yes but I never really played much, I mean I sometimes played video games at my friends their houses." I say. I don't know why I never played video games even though I like it. 

"Jaaaace!" I scream. "Yes? Is something wrong?" He asks and walkes inside the store. "Do you have crime solving puzzle games?" I ask him. "Pff no that's so boring." He says. 

"Can I have them then?" I ask. He looks like he is doubting. "Alright" He says. I smile and get everything I want while Jace is complaining about money in the background.

Unknown POV 

"We have have attacked the smaller packs." My youngest son says. "Good, then we will go to step 2 and attack the bigger packs." I tell him. "With which one do you want to start?" He asks me. "Let's start with Alpha Dylan's pack, the Sunlight pack."

The wolf kingdom novels is a book series about how a pack became a kingdom. Each volume is a different novel and a sequel to the previous one.

Volume 1: The alpha quintuplet
Angel is an omega who got adopted by an alpha. She lived a normal live at her pack until she gets kidnapped by her mate. But he is apparently part of a quintuplet. She doesn't mind it though. Until she discovers that his brothers are also her mates. Then she finds out she's part of a quintuplet too, will they be mated to them too?

He looked around, nothing could be seen in this darkness. He extended his hand outward and used his magic staff to try to feel obstacles, like a blind man feeling his way. In a way, he really was blind here. He moved around several steps in random directions, his staff didn't bump into anything. It felt like this space was really spacious. He was considering maybe he should just go back the way he came from, how could he find any clue in such a dark place? Then he realized he didn't know which way the door was. Once the door was shut, it blended into the darkness. He didn't memorize its direction so he was completely lost now. He thought to himself that he should have prepared something like a flashlight or at least a makeshift torch before he came.
He was not afraid of the dark, but being lost in the dark without knowing what's inside the room and which way to go could be very unsettling. When he thought about casting either Mana Bullet or Energy Bolts, as they both emit a brief light that might allow him a glimpse to the room, a hum sounded. He tensed up. It was like the sound of a machine starting up. He casted Magic Shield instead and took out his sword.
Bright light flashed abruptly around him, completely illuminated the room. Jack shut his eyes as they could not cope with such drastic change. He opened them slightly and let them gradually adjusted to the bright light. When he could finally see things, he realized he was in a large room with oval shape. The curved wall was covered with metallic sheet that reflected light. The source of the bright light itself was from the floor. The entire floor was a series of glazed panes that radiated light from underneath. The ceiling was over ten meters height with a dark background and small dots of light crowded around it. It created the feeling of outdoor setting under a starry night sky. Yet the most astonishing sight was at the center of the room. A series of random blocks were floating over a round pedestal. He could feel a strange aura from those floating blocks.
He looked back and saw the door which he had come from. He inspected the surrounding walls and noticed that it was the only door. That meant there was no more stage after this. Whatever the Lizardman was guarding, it was in this place. But he could not see anything resembling a clue in this place. So he was mistaken, there was no trace in this place as to what had caused the changes to the world. He told himself not to be somber, if following game world rules, there should at least be a treasure here, otherwise there was no need for a guard. The only thing out of place were the floating blocks, so he approached the pedestal.
The whole setup was rather big once he was near. The pedestal height was half way to his chest. Its circumference couldn't be covered even if he used two hands to hug it. Each of the floating blocks above was larger than a basketball, and they were irregular boxy shapes. None of the blocks were identical. There was a panel on one side of the pedestal. There was no button to press so he assumed the panel was touchscreen. He touched it with his finger. No response. Upon closer inspection, he saw a thin slit beside the panel. The width was the size of a card. He looked at the card that was still being held in his hand. Maybe this card could also be used here? He slid the card inside. When it was halfway, a force suddenly sucked the card in. It slipped from his fingers and went all the way inside the panel.
"Crap! I can't take it out anymore," he lamented.
Some undeciphered voice suddenly sounded out. It was like the sound of a broken computer. The panel lit up, then a holographic image appeared in front of the panel. It was an image of multiple blocks. He looked at the floating blocks above and then looked at the image. They were the same. Fascinated, he moved his finger to touch the hologram. The block image which he touched was moved following the motion of his finger. He heard a sound and looked up and saw one of the floating blocks moved.
So the hologram from the panel was a control panel to move the floating blocks. But what's the point? He studied the holographic blocks. It was much easier compared to the floating blocks above, they were too big and so it was difficult to see the whole picture. After observing for a while, he thought he might have grasped the secret. The blocks were some sort of puzzle. They looked disconnected to each other but some pieces he noticed had edges that might fit with each other if brought together.
Excited, he started to work on the blocks. He moved the blocks around and tried different combinations. It was not easy, as the blocks were not able to move freely, there were some invisible patterns that he needed to follow in order for them to move, which made the effort harder. But he enjoyed the process. One other hobby he had other than playing VR games was playing puzzle games. Whether it was computer game puzzles or traditional block or jigsaw puzzles, he played them frequently during his free time.
There were more than a hundred blocks in the holographic constellation in front of him, solving it would take a long time. Without realizing it, time flew by. It took him around two hours to complete half of the blocks. There was now a colossal half cube floating above the pedestal, the remaining blocks scattered around it. It took him another two hours to complete another one quarter. Strange, he assumed it would be easier when the blocks became fewer, instead he used more time to complete fewer blocks as it became more completed. He realized it was due to invisible link that allowed the block's movements. At the start, there was more freedom to move the blocks around. As more were completed, the links decreased. He could only move them in a limited way now, which increased the difficulty.
After being aware of this rule, he decided not to rashly connect the blocks anymore. If the final block was left with a link that cannot fix with the rest of the cube, he might end up failing the puzzle. He was not sure if he could have a redo if he failed.
It was around twenty blocks left now. He studied them all and visualize their possible movement patterns. Like a chess player figuring out several moves ahead. Good thing he brought a pen and paper in his inventory. It didn't provide any effect but he was used to carrying them around. He used them to write notes and draw maps on important landmarks when he travelled. He jotted down the possible movements of the blocks onto the paper, and imagined several simulations. He tried several configurations on paper to make sure he could complete the entire blocks. He met several dead ends when arriving at the last few pieces and had to redo them again on new paper.
He was glad that he realized this early, or else he would have failed the puzzle. But as each configuration failed, he was worried that maybe he had made a mistake prior, so the remaining blocks might no longer be possible to be completed. He drove away the pessimistic thought and continued to work on the puzzle. On his forty-sixth tries, he finally reached the last piece and got the completed configurations.
"Yes!" He screamed out. A sense of achievement was always there whenever he completed a puzzle, that's why he enjoyed them so much.
He followed the configurations recorded in the last paper. He carefully moved the blocks. If he made the wrong move, then it would waste all his simulation efforts just now. When the last piece was inserted into the cube, the hologram vanished. He saw the floating cube started to hum and glowed. It began to revolve, slowly at first but then the rotation was so fast that he could no longer saw the cube shape, it looked more like a round object now. Several electrical discharges shot out from the cube.
Jack moved away, afraid that the electrical discharges might cause him damage.
Suddenly there was a bright flash followed by a loud explosion.

He was about to join the beta test on the newest VR games, Second World.

But an anomaly threw him into a world with familiar rules, a rule he usually only experienced in a game.

Now he must use his past gaming experience in this new world.

It was no longer a game, it was survival! A strive to reach the highest level possible.

Equipped with dual-class of melee and magic user, Jack was set on the path to become the strongest character in this brave new world.
