Chapter 6: Getting to work

Lunchtime didn't last long, and John's memory had completely integrated, as if he had personally experienced those events. This gave John a sudden illusion: was he in a game in a virtual world in his previous life?

After lunch, special robots naturally cleaned up the table.

John watched curiously, thinking to himself that even babysitting jobs had been replaced by robots. No wonder so many people were immersed in the virtual world; otherwise, they wouldn't find anything to do. He was about to go upstairs to return to his room officially to design his first game.

At that moment, his father, Michael, stopped him. "John, how is your game going? Your mother said you already have an idea?"

John turned around helplessly, noticing Michael had just taken freshly brewed tea from another robot. His mouth twitched slightly as he replied, "Well, I just had an idea. It'll take a few days to finish."

"Oh? Tell me about it."

With only five people in the family, there was no need to avoid topics, so Michael asked directly.

"John, do you really know what you're doing? Tell me quickly," Lily's crisp voice chimed in first.

That's right, their focus was on the "Second World."

Speaking of this, John needed to mention Michael's identity—he was the leader of Seaside City.

The Dragon Kingdom was the most powerful country on Canglan Planet, and Seaside City belonged to Eastflower Province, one of its seven major provinces, under Michael's leadership.

As his eldest son, Adam, not only inherited his good looks but also excelled in virtual gaming.

As for Lily, she was still a college student, so she didn't have many opportunities to showcase her abilities.

As for John, he had just graduated this year and took on the task of "Creating a virtual game world" from the state.

"Second World" was currently the most popular virtual world, with everything in it updated in real-time with reality. This time, John's task was to add new elements to it and test the world's limits.

John walked over with a smile, grabbed Lily's braid, and said, "What can you do, you little girl who hasn't finished her studies yet?"

Then he looked at Michael and said, "Don't worry, Dad. They thought they were tricking me, but this is my chance."

This task was taken before John crossed over, meaning it was the task this world's John had taken on by himself. If John hadn't crossed over, the result could be imagined. Apparently, Michael and the others only knew about it after john had already accepted it. There was no need to think about tricks.

It was nothing more than some people worried John would follow Adam's path and their family would become more powerful, so they wanted to set him up. 

"Anyway, there's no rush. The deadline is one month. There are still more than ten days. I can make a rough version in a few days. When the time comes, I'll let you try it first, and then you'll know."

John rejected Adam's offer with a wry smile. John was afraid that if his father or brother intervened, then they could easily help him get rid of this task to make a virtual game, but that would also result in him losing this golden opportunity to showcase his abilities.

"Okay, okay, I'm going upstairs!"

After speaking, John hurried upstairs without giving the family members a chance to speak.

Grace was about to say something, but Michael stopped her. His mouth twitched a few times for no reason as he said calmly, "This kid has never wanted to follow in my footsteps since he was a child. Let him go, regardless of whether he has ideas or not."

"Well, that's the only way."

With such an excellent brother like Adam, John naturally felt a lot of pressure from him since childhood. Grace sighed, thinking it was best for John to follow in their footsteps, with Michael and Adam taking care of him.

Back in his room, John quickly turned on the computer.

The information of "Second World" had long been saved on the computer, but it was only for the Seaside City area. John's task was to update and transform the Seaside City area.

"Let's start! System, copy the data of 'Second World' into it."

"Ding~ Copying is complete."

With a thought, John sat quietly on the chair, and his mind entered the virtual space again.

At this time, there was a portal-like space hole in the virtual space, which led to the virtual world of the "Second World."

John's task was to design and create Pokémon and put them into this virtual world without fancy operations.

"Number 001, Bulbasaur...."

After watching for a while, John looked away and officially started creating Pokémon.

Whispering a word, in this pure white space of unknown size and orientation, countless symbolic codes suddenly became agitated, all rushing towards John and instantly wrapping him like a giant egg.

And John, as the master of this space, directed these symbolic codes and combined them together in mysterious arrangements one after another.

It looked very impressive, but in fact, it was just a boring process.

A/N: Hi guys, I am the author here; I just wanted to ask if anyone of you guys can please provide me with a cover art for this story. Also, please leave a comment. Thank you.


Chapter 7: Pokemon's test version

"No. 002, Ivysaur...attributes...characteristics...skills that can be learned...living area."

"No. 003, Venusaur..."

"Then, connection and evolution..."

The whole process was extremely boring. John obtained not only all Pokémon data, but also all anime data, distribution of various types, and so on.

But the current situation is that John must abandon some settings in the animation and craft Pokémon into the virtual reality of "Second World."

In addition to setting the information of Pokémon, many places have to be set by John himself.

For example, the simplest living area problem: Water Pokemon like Magicarp can't live in volcanic magma, right?

John actually enjoyed these tasks, as they allowed him to exercise his ability to design virtual games.

...

It was almost dinner time, and John dragged his exhausted spirit back to the real world.

John touched his aching forehead subconsciously and murmured, "I'm afraid I'm going to go bald."

This was real mental work, crazy work in the brain.

In one afternoon, John transformed the copied Seaside City area into a small Kanto area.

Although it is a technology-oriented world, it does a good job in terms of environmental protection. There are many jungle lakes around Seaside City, etc. In "Second World," John has added dozens of Pokémon into it, basically corresponding to these environments.

"This is the most basic version I can manage at the moment."

Thinking secretly, John said to the system: "System, copy this version first."

Previously, John said that it would take a few days, but he was worried that he would not be able to complete it as a novice. Facts have proved that the system's empowerment method is still superficial. With entry-level virtual game design ability, John became proficient after a little practice.

It's impossible for the current version to include all the Pokémon of the first generation. Still, it is just to deal with the current situation first and allow his family to get a demo so they can have a baseline.

"Copy to the computer."

"Ding ~ copying complete."

Then John found the copied resources and posted a copy in his small family group chat with the message:

"This is a test version; help me find bugs in it."

"By the way, the added content is mainly in the outer jungles and lakes, and there is very little in the city."

Beep beep!

The moment John sent it, Lily's message popped up: "Wow! Brother, you are so fast!"

John: "???" What are you talking about?

"I'll try it out first." This was Adam's response.

"Adam, please find more people to help John test." This is his mother, Grace, who cares about him.

"Yeah." This is his proud father, Michael.

John: "..."

Then the small group fell silent again. Seeing the reactions of his family, John curled his lips speechlessly, and then put away his phone.

He didn't choose to continue to create other Pokémon because he had spent too much energy earlier, so he lay down on the chair silently, preparing to find entertainment in this world on the computer, such as some tutorial videos.

...

A few minutes later...

"I should not even have tried looking for something worthwhile here..... Sigh," John sighed, looking at his computer screen.

Facts have proved that when it comes to imagination, people in this world are lacking. Fortunately, John has found a few different tutorial videos to watch!

"Why is there no virtual reality version of the videos..."

Before he knew it, John was immersed in watching and learning, and it was getting dark gradually. John's stomach growled unconsciously, and he realized...it seemed it was already past dinner time.

Why is no one asking me to eat?

He opened the door with a bitter face and walked to the dining room. The table was full of food, but it looked untouched.

Only then did John realize: "Are they still in the virtual world?"

Meals at his home are very punctual. His mother, Grace, usually greets him, and she cooks the normal meals, but today it was obviously made by the robot nannies.

The corner of his mouth twitched a few times. He took out his phone and yelled at everyone in the group: "Where are you guys, Its past dinner time already?"

"..."

For a long while, there was no response.

Well, it seems that I have to handle my mother's task today.

A few minutes later, five people were seated at the dining table again.

"Ahem, let's eat." Michael had a straight face, full of majesty, but he didn't have much confidence.

John had the robot nanny reheat the meal.

After dinner, John looked at the anxious eyes of several people, but didn't tease them any longer, and said with a light smile, "How about it, did you find any bugs?"

It was just a farce.

Bug?

The system has its own error correction function. If there are any bugs, it will remind john when designing!

"Well, not bad." Michael still had a straight face, hiding the deep curiosity in his eyes.

And Lily didn't care so much, she just grabbed John's arm and shook it quickly, excitedly said: "Brother! You are so amazing! You made this all afternoon?"

"Uh, no, it took me days to make it."

John tried to hide the fact that he could make virtual games so easily as not to be too surprising.

John knows that people in this world don't have the assistance of system like tools to help in making VR games. He can make games by just being in the virtual space of the system, but people in this world must still rely on the countless program codes, the speed and quality of which are not comparable to his own.

"It's still so fast!"

"..."

"Well, John, can you give detailed information about the function of that world? I found nothing wrong with just a few hours of exploration."

Adam's eyebrows frowned slightly, as if he was discharging electricity, and said seriously: "But the idea is really good. I'll find some people to help you test them tonight."

"If it can be perfected, I think it is very likely that it will be able to pass if sent to the higher authorities!"

"Of course there is."

Listening to Adam's magnetic voice, John took out his mobile phone and sent a copy of the pre-prepared materials to the group.

These materials were specially screened by him for the current situation. They only included dozens of Pokémon materials that had been designed, as well as some simple battle rules, some skill introductions, etc.

In fact, there are tutorials for beginners before the game starts, which will teach them how to use and capture Pokémon, how to use Poké Balls, simple battle rules, etc., but of course, they are not yet written out for convenience and clarity.

Moreover, among these materials, the information about Pokémon itself is the most important.

At the beginning of the game, they will all get a Pokédex. John continues the setting in the anime. The Pokédex can only collect the most superficial information, such as height and weight, simple living habits and living areas, etc., and the premise is that they must encounter the corresponding Pokémon. These ready-made Pokémon data are like plug-ins.

"Here, that's it. There are some other Pokémon designs that I haven't finished yet. Let's take a look at these first."
