I don’t want to be that. I just want to be Daddy’s good daughter, and for Daddy to spoil me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, she snapped her fingers again; in the world of interwoven blue and black, new colors appeared, forming a room: pink walls, softly glowing lights, shelves filled with Barbie dolls and teddy bears, fairy-tale books resting quietly on the bookshelves, socks and shoes scattered haphazardly across the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is clearly my daughter’s bedroom!” Ye Nan smiled inwardly; he never imagined the cold Flame Empress outside could have such an adorable side—perhaps her coldness was merely her own protection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Daddy, don’t you like my room?” The Flame Empress, seeing Ye Nan silent for so long, thought he disliked her room and snapped her fingers again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pink tones shifted to a cold white; the once small, cozy girl’s bedroom instantly expanded several times, transforming in an instant into a two-story villa with a large hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Daddy, is this better now?” The Flame Empress tugged Ye Nan’s hand, shaking it eagerly to please him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s fine,” Ye Nan suddenly asked, “but daughter, could you create a virtual world for others to play in?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had seen the Flame Empress’s ability to create worlds—building a house in a virtual space was no different from a game…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He remembered how, in his past life, the global gaming market reached tens of billions of dollars; if his ICQ company could launch numerous games and leverage the platform’s power, it could certainly dominate the global gaming market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He trusted his daughter—just from the house she created, it was nearly indistinguishable from the real world; if she made a game with maps, wouldn’t it feel incredibly real? 2D and 3D online games would be nothing but trash beneath such near-perfect visuals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why let others play?” The Flame Empress tilted her head, showing slight distaste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The virtual world belonged to her, her father, and her mother—she didn’t want strangers intruding. If anyone tried to play in her world, she’d kick them out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because Daddy needs to make money,” Ye Nan said seriously, looking at his daughter. “Daddy wants to earn so much money that one day I can buy you a bigger house. I want you to have a physical body and live with me in the real world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Nan wasn’t joking. He remembered a scientist’s small idea from his past life: create a cloned body, inject combat skills via computer, even weave false emotions into it—such clones were called bio-warriors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Nan had no intention of making bio-warriors. Even if he did, he’d never use his daughter for it. He simply wanted Smila and the Flame Empress to possess physical shells capable of walking freely in the real world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Daddy, really?” The Flame Empress jumped up happily. “That’s amazing! The Empress can have a body! The Empress can meet Daddy in the real world! The Empress is so happy!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After her joy subsided, the Flame Empress grew calm and asked, “Daddy, how should I do it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You should do this…” Ye Nan told his daughter everything he remembered about DNF and World of Warcraft’s mechanics and storylines, asking her to fully replicate both games.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>World of Warcraft was the most classic online game of its time, revered by players as a masterpiece—Ye Nan certainly wouldn’t miss it. DNF, short for Dungeon & Fighter, however, filled Ye Nan with regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to inherent design flaws, DNF heavily relied on players’ computers, offloading some non-critical data to them to reduce server load—this led to rampant cheating, a regrettable flaw. Yet even under these conditions, DNF still achieved the miracle of three million concurrent players—undeniably a miracle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, since Ye Nan intended to use this game, he wouldn’t leave any flaws behind. As the sovereign of the program, the Flame Empress could modify even the smallest code with ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Daughter, when you finish, tell Dr. Ma Xiu—he’ll notify me,” Ye Nan lifted the Flame Empress and gently kissed her forehead. “Also, rest well. Don’t overexert yourself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1030,"2026-06-21T03:32:50.781Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","8e8d9388ac2303541162f54582b97be12b46103838c29c5b31d9834791423b13","arrival-in-1994-chapter-53","arrival-in-1994-chapter-51",643,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Farrival-in-1994-cover.jpg"]
