Promoting video games in this world is also a part of Qiao Xiu's plan, but Qiao Xiu's system production progress with the inscription editing has only hit about 20%. It is obviously a very ambitious choice to make some large-scale games based on the system.
So Joshua's initial idea was to make some ping-pong-like pixel games, such as Super Mario and Castlevania, but the magic machine made by Hurland gave Joshua a new plan.
That is to do the arcade.
In addition to the classics on the red and white machines, Qiao Xiu's video game enlightenment works are more from arcade halls.
I specially made an arcade machine that can play the game Hearthstone. I tried to get the account and registration functions, and then put them in a bar in batches. If you want to buy more card packs, you can use the coin-operated method.
The price is one coin per card.
When Qiao Xiu first came into contact with the hearthstone, there was really nothing more pleasant than drinking a small bottle of wine and then rubbing the hearthstone.
The plan of "Hearthstone Tavern" is absolutely feasible, and Joshua believes that this simple but full of fun card game will definitely swept the world.
But before Joshua sets out to build Hearthstone Tavern, Joshua faces the embarrassing problem everyone faces, and that is... no money.
"Miss Hurland, as Ciri said, I'm actually a... cultural worker, and I came to this city to visit a theater."
Qiao Xiu found that the demon prince never had the concept of currency. As the third prince, Qiao Xiu didn't need money to buy anything he needed in the demon world.
But this is the human world, and Qiao Xiu's position in the demon world is useless at all, so Qiao Xiu is in a dilemma of being penniless.
There are no people in the world who will be impoverished to death. The basis for investing is to have principal, and Qiao Xiu's "principal" is placed in Qiao Xiu's suitcase.
Now Joshua is ready to push the value of Beauty and the Devil to the limit.
"Theatre... Are you going to take Ciri to the show?"
Hurland's eyes swept back and forth between Ciri and Joshua. Hurland watched Ciri grow up, so she knew how difficult it was to make her fall in love with Ciri's strong character.
But judging from the performance of Ciri standing next to Qiao Xiu and rubbing against Qiao Xiu, her sister definitely has a good impression of Qiao Xiu.
"It's not a show, I'm just planning to negotiate a small business with the owner of the theater. Does Miss Hurland know which theater owner in this city has the last name of the owner of Dalke?"
"Dark... I think you're referring to the White Thorns Theater."
Joshua just told Hurland about the value that her magic-guided machine could bring, and successfully fooled Hurland to Hurland, so Hurland temporarily agreed to cooperate with Joshua.
And Hurland didn't want his mother's legacy to be dusted in this small alchemy workshop.
"It's not far from here, just across the river."
Hurland pushed open the door of the alchemy workshop and was ready to serve as a tour guide.
Across the river is Nolan's prosperous area, where several of Nolan's higher magic academies are located.
Before Qiao Xiu came, Helland had already made plans to close the alchemy workshop and return to the school to continue his studies, but Qiao Xiu's flickering made Helland see a little hope again.
"plz follow me."
So under the leadership of Helland, Joshua and Ciri came all the way to the bustling area only separated by a river.
On the way, Hurland introduced the structure of Nolan to Joshua.
Nolan, the capital of magic, can be roughly divided into two layers: the ground and the underground. The inhabitants on the ground are humans who are mainly spellcasters, and the inhabitants of the underground are dwarves.
In fact, these dwarves were the original inhabitants of Nolan. They lived in the ruins of ancient civilization underground in Nolan. The entire tribe dug countless mines underground in order to explore the ruins.
Soon after, humans were also attracted to these ruins. Although the dwarves were strong, their talent in magic was much inferior to that of humans, not to mention understanding the complex inscriptions on the ruins.
So the dwarves agreed to the assistance of humans, and it took hundreds of years to build the most prosperous city in the world by human spellcasters on the fortress that originally belonged to the dwarves.
The curiosity and humility of the casters won the respect of the dwarves, and this friendly relationship has been maintained to this day. One of the seven members of Nolan's highest power organization is a dwarf.
Joshua did see many dwarves walking on the road, and there were many shops opened by dwarves on the street.
"This is the Bai Jinghua Theater. It seems that no troupe is performing here today."
Hurland stopped in front of an elegant and magnificent building. Compared with the continuous flow of people on the shopping street just now, the front of the theater seemed a little deserted.
"No show?"
If Qiao Xiu guessed correctly, now should be the busiest period for Nolan. The World Expo two months later has attracted the attention of countless powers in the world, who have visited the city a few weeks or even months in advance. .
For businessmen, now is undoubtedly the time for business opportunities everywhere, and for theaters, now a performance is undoubtedly a real sense of attracting audiences from all over the world.
"If you want to see a show, sir, go to the Nolan National Theatre on Belsik Street! The Black Swan Troupe in Falothia, the country of art, is performing! Where can you see Miss Caroline, the flower of Falothia!"
A little boy with a flyer suddenly ran to Joshua's side and said.
"Black Swan Theatre?"
Joshua took the flyer handed over by the little boy. This flyer seemed to be handwritten, and it clearly indicated the address of another theater and the program of the show.
It seems that peer competition exists in which era.
Just as Qiao Xiu wanted to ask about the specific situation of the troupe, the little boy ran into the crowd on the other side with the flyer and continued his publicity work.
This made Qiao Xiu give up the idea of running over to ask questions, and walked quickly up the stairs of the White Thorns Theater with the suitcase in hand.
It was very deserted. When Joshua walked into the theater, although the interior decoration of the theater was luxurious and artistic, the theater hall seemed a little empty.
"Sir, I'm sorry... We have no repertoire for the time being. If you come to visit, I can show you around."
The attendant of this theater saw Joshua and immediately came over and said hello to Joshua.
"I'm here to meet the administrator of your theater."
Joshua took out the Badge of the Skeleton and flipped it between his fingers. Those who didn't know the origin of the badge might think Joshua was just playing with coins, but the attendant obviously recognized the badge on Joshua's hand. , his expression became a little worried.
"Sir, please come this way..."
The attendant immediately changed his name to Joshua and led Joshua to the hidden corridor on the side of the theater.
