Creating a Virtual World

Chapter 187: Can't afford to keep it, can't put it away, can't sell it (second update)

"President! Don't even think about hiring her. We don't have the money to support her."

The Fluffy Rabbit has been taking care of the guild's affairs recently, including the resources for reconstruction and the funds for the guild's construction, all of which were applied for by her from the Silver President.

As the temporary head of the family, the Fluffy Rabbit deeply felt the high cost of vegetables, rice, oil and salt. After Ye Lina became the NPC of the Holy Spirit, she could have lived on the food of the Holy Spirit's original world, but she couldn't eat too much every day.

But when the boss behind the Leaping Nuclear Guild heard that their poster girl could only eat tasteless "white flour buns" every day, he waved his hand and allocated funds for the Fluffy Rabbit to buy food with the words "Other World" on 4396, and then let the player whose living profession is a chef cook for Ye Lina.

Yelena herself didn't know how expensive the delicious food she ate every day was, but Velveteen Rabbit knew that Yelena's food expenses for a month were equivalent to Velveteen Rabbit's salary for two months.

Raising another Yelina has made the Plush Rabbit feel the financial pressure. It is necessary to develop agriculture and animal husbandry in the development of the base. What if it raises another Shelar

It would be better to just convert the base of the Leap Atomic Guild into a large pig farm. Even a large pig farm may not be able to feed one Shelar.

"I know that the food requirement is one thousand. This character is obviously not employable."

Mo Shigui half-crouched and used reconnaissance skills to investigate Sheral's detailed data. The player's reconnaissance skills were classified as life skills, not combat skills.

The methods of improving life skills and combat skills in the Holy Spirit are somewhat different. Combat skills are improved based on skill points, while life skills increase with each use and the more proficient you are in using them, the higher the skill level will be.

Mo Shigui's reconnaissance skill level is master level. Most players have trained their reconnaissance skills to master level because this is the skill most commonly used by players.

"A lord-level NPC? Level fifty-three. This must be an NPC that cannot be hired. Otherwise, it would destroy the balance of the game."

After Mo Shigui obtained Shelar's detailed data, his first reaction was that Shelar was definitely a character who could not be hired.

"But when we talk to her, the option to request to hire her often pops up. I almost accidentally clicked on the option to hire her several times. It's really scary." The Fluffy Rabbit said with some fear.

"With a food requirement of 1,000 units, this is likely to be a discouraged hiring option. Even if someone is stubborn enough to hire her, it is estimated that she will not be able to play her true role."

Mo Shigui has played so many games and gradually learned to think about the purpose of designing this character from the perspective of a game planner, as well as what kind of main tasks this character can launch.

"Why haven't I heard of the Crystal Hunters camp before? Does anyone know?" Mo Shigui looked at Sheral's character prefix. In Mo Shigui's impression, the only important NPCs on this island were Father Donald and Miss Cat, and the other was the NPC Spell Thief from the enemy camp.

Apart from this, the plot line of Brand Island seems very thin to Mo Shigui, but the construction gameplay and hunting giant monsters of Brand Island make Mo Shigui regain the impulse he had felt for a long time...staying up all night playing games and still wanting to continue playing.

So if Mo Shigui were asked to rate the Brand Island expansion pack, he would give it full marks for the new gameplay, but he would only give it a passing score for the game's plot.

"I know, I know. It seems to be a faction that was just released yesterday. According to analysis on the forum, it seems to be a faction that is hostile to the Spell Thieves. It comes from a world outside Brand Island. This morning, a Crystal Hunter came to chat with me for a while, saying something about fighting the Spell Thieves together." The Fluffy Rabbit recalled and said.

"I've sent you the forum post." Yu Zhongqu, who was standing aside, directly sent all the posts on the forum discussing crystal hunters to Mo Shigui privately.

"President! Three more NPCs have appeared at the entrance of the base, all of them are Crystal Hunters!"

A player in charge of guarding the gate shouted into the stronghold.

"How is the construction of the stronghold's fortifications going?"

Mo Shigui did not read the posts posted by Yu Zhongqu. Now that there were ready-made crystal hunter NPCs to contact, he could personally check out the various options of those NPCs.

"The three Black Stone Arrow Towers have been completed. It took a lot of resources to collect the materials for the arrow towers, but the effect is very powerful! One arrow can deal about 10,000 to 20,000 damage."

The Fluffy Rabbit pointed at the Black Stone Arrow Towers standing next to the high walls of the Leaping Nuclear Guild. The design drawings of these three arrow towers were all produced from the Black Stone Volcano, a copy of the Holy Spirit's original plane.

The Arrow Tower was originally designed for hunting dragons... Human units are still a little small for the Blackrock Arrow Tower, where an arrow is two meters long.

"Prepare for battle, then go out and talk to the NPC."

Mo Shigui had seen neutral NPCs suddenly become hostile during a chat before. There was no such precedent in the game of Holy Spirit, but he didn't want his guild's base to be destroyed a second time.

Today is the third day of the summer season, and the elite strategy team of Leaping Nuclear can just rest in the hotel for a day, so even if a three-lord-level dungeon battle starts in front of the guild base, Mo Shigui is confident that he will not... lose too badly.

Jiang Qiao followed the Leaping Nucleus's strategy team to the entrance of the stronghold. The three crystal hunters standing at the entrance of the stronghold were all God-chosen characters, namely the God-chosen one of the God of Flowing Water, the God-chosen one of the God of Shadows, and the God-chosen one of the God of War.

This was a determination to get Shelar back. Jiang Qiao looked at the situation and thought about what dialogue options to use to let the people of the Leaping Nuclear Guild temporarily keep Shelar.

"Respected Holy Spirits, one of our companions has been lost on Brand Island. We can sense that she is in your camp."

The first person to speak was the Chosen One of the God of Flowing Water. He was a very handsome man, so handsome that it was almost sickening.

But if we really talk about the attribute of charm, Jiang Qiao still thinks that the character and image of Hei Guo Zhu Rou Nie from the Leaping Nuclear Guild are more charming.

The chosen one of the God of Flowing Water kept his eyes fixed on the Plush Rabbit when he greeted him.

The Chosen One of the God of Flowing Water had come to the Leaping Nuclear Guild once before, and the one who talked to him at that time was the Fluffy Rabbit, who was the acting president.

Obviously... the chosen one of the God of Water was deeply attracted by the beautiful appearance of the Fluffy Rabbit, and mistakenly believed that the Fluffy Rabbit was the manager of the Leaping Nuclear Guild.

Just as he was staring at the fluffy rabbit, Mo Shigui, wearing heavy black armor, walked out of the crowd.

Mo Shigui's character is exactly 1.85 meters tall, which perfectly illustrates what it means that a real man plays MT. The God of Flowing Water's chosen one is only about 1.75 meters tall.

So Mo Shigui stood in front of the crowd and blocked the sight of these three chosen ones.

Mo Shigui took a look at the dialogue window and dialogue options that popped up after he approached the three chosen ones from God.

There are five communication options in total. Mo Shigui glanced at the five dialogue options and chose the most direct one.

The fifth option is 'Crystal Hunter Shelar is indeed in our base, but she doesn't seem to have wandered here because she got lost.'

Mo Shigui chose this option, but what he asked verbally was "What do you want to do with Shelar?"

Freya herself could sense Sheral's emotions.

What if these three crystal hunters took Sheral back for interrogation, or killed him directly? Wouldn't Freya have to endure the same emotions and panic

Mo Shigui knew that this was a bit like a setting to let Freya join the current main storyline of Brand Island.

But it was still the same situation. If Freya felt uncomfortable, Mo Shigui would feel uncomfortable too, as if there was a lump in his heart, even if this uncomfortable feeling was just a setting presented by the game in words.
