Chapter 417: Chapter 416: Let Netizens Verify the Authenticity!_2

Thinking of this, Lilith didn’t greet Gu Fan and turned to leave the villa.

"Hmm? Isn’t she just disappearing directly?"

Gu Fan was somewhat surprised. Lilith leaving the villa most likely meant she had driven out, and she most likely wasn’t going back to Hell.

Going for reinforcements?

Actually, Gu Fan had already sensed that Lilith certainly had some other forces she could ask for help from in the Human World, but he wasn’t worried. After all, he would deal with whatever the enemy threw at him. And speaking frankly about the strategists Lilith was seeking... they didn’t seem much stronger than her.

...

At 4 a.m., Lilith arrived at the Infernal Hell’s Haunted House.

"President Li! You are finally here!

"I’ve been thinking about you day and night since you left, filled with regret!

"I’ve reviewed the mistakes from before, and I’ve realized that this time the enemy is extremely cunning. But don’t worry, President Li, I have evolved comprehensively and am no longer the same as before!

"You are currently facing internal and external troubles, besieged on all sides. You must let me help share some of the burden!"

Qin Fengliang was practically in tears and sobs, appearing even more heartbroken than Lilith.

As a strategist, she was very dedicated, getting right out of bed upon receiving Lilith’s message late at night, not missing any opportunity to relieve her boss of burdens.

Seeing how reliable Qin Fengliang was, Lilith couldn’t help but soften and thought she might consider giving her another chance.

After all, she was a long-serving subordinate, without merit but with much hard work, and perhaps this time she might turn things around?

For Lilith, all she needed was one victory, to expose the traitor in Nitiandang, and that would be enough. After that, it would all be smooth sailing; negative emotions were something one could have in any desired quantity!

Earning interest in a continuous defeat, that was the principle.

Although the development of Nitiandang was smooth and had built a huge reputation amongst the player community, it also meant that if handled correctly, Lilith could use this reputation to make a major move and collect a massive amount of negative emotions.

So, it wasn’t time to give up yet.

"Alright, let me cut to the chase. This time the game in Nitiandang is called "Heartbeat Dream", and my original idea was..."

Lilith quickly recounted the problems she was currently facing with "Heartbeat Dream".

Of course, she provided a detailed and thorough explanation about the outrageous bugs in the game, the absurd performance of the fake-AI, and Gu Fan’s interpretation of the various codes.

Then she looked at Qin Fengliang: "What do you think, is Gu Fan just bluffing me?"

Prior to this, Lilith hadn’t verified Gu Fan’s explanation of the game bugs, but based on her understanding of games, those explanations had seemed credible.

But this time, the explanation about "Heartbeat Dream" sounded a bit far-fetched, so Lilith wanted to verify it further to see if there was something amiss.

Qin Fengliang fell into deep thought.

"President Li, to be honest, I can’t say I’m very knowledgeable about coding.

"The spectrum of programming ability is quite broad. The difference between a good programmer and a bad one is greater than the difference between a human and a dog.

"Besides, so far, probably only a few tech giants truly understand fake-AI."

Lilith frowned slightly: "Are you saying that even if I hired some programmers, they might not be able to provide the correct answer?"

Qin Fengliang nodded: "Yes, after all, Gu Fan is a top-tier programmer who likely looks at issues differently than an ordinary programmer.

"Even if ordinary programmers think he is wrong, their opinions might not be reliable."

Lilith found herself deep in thought.

Qin Fengliang made a lot of sense and also pointed out a critical blind spot: if external forces are to be brought in to verify coding issues, then that person must possess similar expertise to Gu Fan.

Because such matters still require enough professional knowledge to reach the correct conclusions.

For example, if Lilith wanted to verify rocket designs and didn’t find a rocket scientist but a pseudoscientist who then suggested using smokeless coal as fuel, wouldn’t that just be nonsensical?

Coding was similar, possessing a highly specialized nature.

But as a programmer, Gu Fan was indeed of very high caliber. Where would she find someone at his level?

Such people would probably be technical backbones in some major corporations, not so easy to find.

Qin Fengliang, however, seemed confident, smiling slightly as if she had already anticipated this issue.

"President Li, no need to worry, I have a way.

"It indeed isn’t easy to find these technical backbones in major corporations: firstly, we lack connections, and secondly, even if we find them, these people are usually too busy with their work to consider taking our private jobs.

"But no worries, those who cost money are hard to find, those who cost nothing are much easier to find."

Lilith was taken aback: "Huh?"

What does it mean that those who cost money are hard to find, but those who cost nothing are easy to find?

Isn’t that the opposite?

Qin Fengliang smiled slightly: "President Li, haven’t you heard the saying that the master hides in the common folk?

"Just like Gan Di, who has always been opposing you, isn’t he a master?"

Lilith shook her head vigorously like a bobbing drum: "Gan Di won’t work! That man is beyond redemption, expecting him to help me is absolutely impossible!

"Besides, his main skills are all focused on making mods, whether he has any research on fake-AI or not, it’s hard to tell."
