According to Fang Cheng’s previous idea, the existence of AI was to assist players in becoming Immortals.

The difficulty of the game was supposed to be “becoming an Immortal with the help of the Holy Monarch”, “becoming an Immortal with the help of the Emperor”, and finally, “becoming an Immortal on one’s own”.

Therefore, the AI’s state was set to friendly by default. In this state, players would feel the AI’s concern, akin to a doting father’s care, making the process of becoming an Immortal extremely smooth.

Friendly AI would proactively gift items to players, provide abundant resources, pay attention to various conditions based on the player’s racial traits, and even offer warm inquiries and serious advice when a player strayed off course, informing them that it was wrong to seize wonders at that time and to just tell the AI if they wanted something—promising to give it to them.

Some AIs would even actively provide settlements for players so they could freely obtain special resources nearby. Before doing so, they would prepare all the necessary facilities within the settlement and fully train the mayor, allowing the player to reap high benefits as soon as they got it.

So, why go hostile with them for no reason?

Once in a hostile state with the AI, they would become the most terrifying enemies. The AI under the Holy Monarch difficulty were even played by the Gods invited here by Fang Cheng Studio, experts in management.

Becoming an Immortal is so fun, why not go for it?

While Fang Cheng racked his brains, he saw Xiao Douzi clench his teeth, stand up and walk to his own rest area to close the door. Afterward, roaring like a wild beast could be heard from inside.

“Impossible to fix!”

Glancing at Xiao Douzi’s resting room, Fang Cheng asked in confusion, “What happened to him?”

Monkey glanced at Xiao Douzi’s screen, then said, “It’s nothing. He just failed on his own while challenging Emperor-level AI. Too bad, he was so close.”

Hearing this, Huang Ping, like a shark sensing blood, slid over to look at the screen and said, “Really, he was only a bit off. But that Emperor civilization is a parasitic one; it actually settled in nearby water resources early on. That Emperor really can endure too, waiting until now to erupt.”

“Just now I challenged an AI at the Virtue Monarch difficulty, and it was tragic. I had already eliminated the opponent’s last settlement, but they actually had the ability to revive. Then it was constant sieges and growing stronger, until the enemy’s territory expanded more and more, while mine shrank—then I got overturned.”

As he talked, Huang Ping had already defeated an ordinary level AI and smoothly helped his character become an Immortal.

But after becoming immortal, he quickly pressed ESC, and skillfully started a new game, beginning from scratch.

Watching Huang Ping’s actions, Fang Cheng felt he was witnessing something utterly rebellious.

“What are you doing?” Fang Cheng asked, puzzled.

“Restarting the game,” Huang Ping replied, equally bemused.

“Why restart the game?”

“The game is over, so I restarted it.”

Fang Cheng looked at Huang Ping, and Huang Ping also looked back at him with confusion. After a moment of looking at each other, it was still Fang Cheng who asked, “Isn’t the content after becoming an Immortal… fun?”

“It’s fun.”

“Then why…”

“I’ve played it before, no need to play again. In comparison, I find it more fun to start over with a race I haven’t played.”

Fang Cheng’s head felt a bit muddled.

He admitted that, unintentionally, he had added a bit too much content for when players acquired merits, and due to the situation within the Immortal Assembly’s Grid world, he had created dozens of different types of races and placed different AIs for them.

Looking back, it seemed he had gotten the direction wrong right from the start.

Turning on Bilibili, Fang Cheng found that the videos there were mostly about explaining the features and strategies for different races, even including some eccentric streamers who vowed “not to stop streaming until they single-handedly defeated an Emperor”.

Researching the history of various races had also become an academic pursuit, with histories of different races laid out and compared alongside their racial traits, analyzing why those traits existed.

Meanwhile, his own advocated experience of what came after becoming an Immortal only had one paltry video, which was also released by the official account.

This content is taken from freeweɓnovel.cѳm.

The video had high views, and the number of likes and coins was decent. Players said it was good after watching it, but they ignored it after a few views.

Other players’ completion videos also defaulted to the end regarding reaching Immortality as the finish line, and even speedruns did not include post-Immortality content, indicating they truly didn’t desire to replay the content after becoming immortal.

Seeing these results, Fang Cheng was a bit speechless.

Without consulting Dustfire, he already knew what the players were thinking now.

With a long sigh, he scrolled through more videos and decided to increase the difficulty of the Holy Monarch a notch later.

You like challenges, don’t you?

Then torture yourselves to your heart’s content.

However, Fang Cheng felt he hadn’t completely failed yet, as there was still room for rectification.

He should release a DLC soon to change the game’s atmosphere around.

Unlike what Fang Cheng considered a failure, “Immortal Road” could be said to be a great success in the gaming field.

The price of the game might be 258, but the joy it brought beyond price; the game full of sincerity made a massive number of players into die-hard fans of Fang Cheng Studio, turning his game into a no-brainer quality purchase in the eyes of many gamers.
