After getting up early and washing up, Yan Jue came to the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room and did a complete set of radio gymnastics in the sunshine at 10 o'clock in the morning.
After completing today's exercise, he was very self-disciplined and did not sit down immediately after exercising. Instead, he stood up first, spent five minutes ordering a takeout for himself, and then collapsed on the lazy sofa in front of the window.
After exiting the food delivery app, Yan Jue skillfully turned the pages with his fingers. He couldn't wait to enter the game called "Dimension Kindergarten", and unconsciously revealed a mysterious old father's smile on his face.
On the mobile phone, as the warm yellow loading page disappears, what comes into view is the extremely simple and clear main interface of the game: kindergarten, store.
Two banners with rounded fonts occupy the center of the entire phone screen, neatly arranged up and down on a clean pink-blue background. Apart from these, there are no other buttons or pictures on the entire page.
Yan Jue, who had been using the game for a month, was used to it. After clicking on "Kindergarten", he went straight to the "Office Building" option and clicked on "Student File" with excitement. Then, the big words at the top of the page changed to "Student List", and below it was a horizontal frame with a serial number.
The only flaw is that except for the horizontal frame of the first ranked student, all other numbers are gray, which also means that there is only one student in the kindergarten at present.
Yan Jue suddenly took a deep breath at this moment, staring at the screen with visible uneasiness, and carefully clicked on the file of Noel Atlantis, the only child in the kindergarten.
"sixty!"
Yan Jue slapped his thigh excitedly, his eyes fixed on the 60 behind the favorability, unable to pull them away, with a smile on his face.
It hadn't been easy. A full month had passed since he'd received his first egg playing this game, and he'd finally gotten his cub's favorability up to the passing mark! All his hard work day and night, earning points to give to his cub and show him care, had paid off. Today, he'd finally passed! He'd thought the number changes he'd seen before bed were just eye strain and double vision, but it turned out to be real.
Yan Jue looked at the number sixty with satisfaction twice, then lowered his gaze, skipping from the basic information to the last line.
Currently: swimming pool.
Hey, Zizi doesn’t have classes today? Yan Jue decisively clicked on the three words “swimming pool” and went to harass, no, to play with Zizi.
The scene shifted in the blink of an eye. Surprisingly, for a game like this meant to raise a child, the buildings were modeled in a realistic style. Whether it was the pool tiles, the escalator, or the tables, chairs, and snacks on the shore, everything was incredibly close to the real thing.
In this scene that gives people the feeling of watching a live video, a unique touch of gold appears particularly dazzling.
On an inflatable mattress shaped like a little duck floating in the azure water, a small figure with long golden hair as bright as the sun is taking a nap with her eyes closed. Her upper body is naked from the waist down, and her fishtail, the same color as her hair, hangs in the water, occasionally playfully stirring the surface of the water.
Looking at the five-headed, Q-version mermaid on the inflatable mattress, Yan Jue smiled like an old father again. Then, he called out the voice button hidden on the side of the screen, leaned over to the phone, and called out "Noel" in a gentle voice.
As the voice was sent, the little mermaid in the swimming pool slowly opened her eyes and looked at the screen.
This is what makes the game "Dimensional Kindergarten" different from others.
To give players the most realistic sense of immersion, the game has switched some of the text options for interacting with characters to voice commands, allowing players to "communicate" with the characters themselves. While this feature is tedious and cumbersome, it's clearly very immersive, fostering a closeness and identification with the characters.
At first, Yan Jue was a little embarrassed, but as time went on, he was able to communicate with Noel very naturally through voice, as if he were a real teacher, communicating with his students on the phone. Of course, what really gave Yan Jue this illusion was the super natural and flexible game character, with a CG-like modeling, movements, and reactions.
For example, now, after "hearing" Yan Jue's voice, the little mermaid Noel opened her eyes in surprise and slid into the water. She swung her tail gently twice and came to the front of the screen. She tilted her head slightly and showed a soft and cute smile to Yan Jue outside the screen. Her mouth moved and a bubble box floated out above her head.
"Good morning, teacher~"
Looking at the little mermaid that occupied most of the screen, Yan Jue tapped his head with his index finger. Then, Noel in the picture tilted his head slightly and squinted his big blue eyes comfortably as if he was rubbing something.
Noel loves being patted on the head the most. If he accidentally touches other parts of his body, especially his tail, his favorability will be continuously reduced, depending on the degree of Noel's anger and the number of days. Once the favorability drops, it is not easy to raise it again.
These are the lessons Yan Jue learned through blood and tears when he was a rookie.
However, now that the favorability level is up to par, it should be okay for him to touch Noel's fish tail, right?
Yan Jue's fingers were itching to move, but in the end he didn't dare to do anything stupid. He just conservatively poked Noel's soft-looking cheek and sent another voice message: "Why are you sleeping in the swimming pool? Are you bored?"
Noel was the only student in the entire kindergarten, which sounded incredibly lonely. Yan Jue also wanted to get more puppies, but when he got his first one, the game's prompt said that unless he maxed out the first pup's favorability and proved his ability to take good care of them, he would never have a chance to draw the next one.
Can you tolerate this broken game?
But if you can't bear it, the only solution is to delete the game, out of sight, out of mind. Yan Jue couldn't bear to part with Noel, so he had to continue playing. As he played, he felt that it didn't matter whether he raised other cubs or not.
Because Noelle is super cute!
"I'm not bored. I'm waiting for the teacher in the sun." When he said this, the bubble frame above Noel's head disappeared, a sudden blush appeared on his cheeks, and he blinked and became hesitant to speak.
Yan Jue's heart moved, and he asked gently and politely, "Noel, do you need help with something?"
Here it comes, is the Easter egg that will pass the favorability test coming?
Noel nodded shyly. "Thank you very much for the gift yesterday, teacher. I like it very much. And the ones before, I have always cherished them..."
Seeing the word "cherish", Yan Jue's expression became hesitant to speak.
That's enough. Don't think I don't know that the clothes and toys like screaming chickens that I gave you when I was a newbie have been thrown into corners by you and you also deducted two points of my favorability. You lie without even thinking.
When you cut the white and soft little ball open, you'll see it's completely black inside.
The bubble frame above the sesame-filled mermaid's head continued: "Thank you teacher for taking care of me. I also have a gift for you. Teacher, you must accept it. I have carefully prepared this for a long time!"
Noel opened his eyes wide and looked at the screen with a sweet smile.
Yan Jue had slapped his thighs until they turned red.
Gift!
This is a feature that the dog game never mentioned!
The cub has grown up and even thinks of him and gives him gifts. Yan Jue, who has only taken care of Noel for a month but already has the mentality of an old father, feels very relieved at this moment, and he softens like a puddle of water while soaking in a hot spring.
Dramatically wiping away the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes, Yan Jue turned his attention back to his phone and replied, "Thank you, Noel. It's my duty to take care of you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge red gift box suddenly appeared in the center of the screen, with the words "Noel's Gift" marked on it.
Yan Jue couldn't wait to click on it.
What will be inside?
Is it an item that can be exchanged for points, or an item randomly given away in the game store, or is it just a small handicraft made by Noel himself?
No matter which one, Yan Jue's heart was filled with joy and anticipation.
The lid of the red gift box was removed, and after a dazzling golden light effect, the gift box disappeared, and Noel, who occupied most of the screen, reappeared in Yan Jue's sight.
No, where is the gift?
Where is this big gift my son gave me?
Yan Jue looked at the entire game page again and again without giving up, but he couldn't find a second button other than "Return".
Just when he was doubting his life, suddenly, a "bang" sound like a heavy object falling to the ground rang in his ears. Yan Jue subconsciously looked up at the source of the sound, then widened his eyes. Now he really began to doubt his life.
Who can tell him where the huge strange fish with four human legs on his coffee table came from!
yue~
Three seconds later, Yan Jue retched and quickly came to his senses. He patted his chest and looked out the window to clean his eyes. However, due to the overwhelming shock, Yan Jue couldn't immediately expel the image of the strange fish from his mind. At the same time, goose bumps began to appear on his body.
Judging from visual observation, the strange fish was at least two meters long. Its body looked very much like a carp, but under the gills and the two pairs of fins at the tail, which were also the fish's armpits, four long legs with the same height as the human body suddenly grew out. Not only did they have leg hair, but their feet also looked like they were wearing flippers.
Yan Jue once saw a similarly designed comic book while surfing the internet. Seeing it on paper, he thought it was eye-catching and believed the author must be from a newspaper. He never imagined that when it came to life, transforming from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, it would be even more shocking and terrifying.
It's so disgusting, the San value has dropped dramatically, and I want to vomit just by looking at it.
Even in the sun, Yan Jue's scalp was tingling and cold sweats were pouring out. He used all the rationality accumulated in the past 26 years to calm himself down and think about where this thing fell from.
The summer sun was still strong in the morning, causing Yan Jue to squint uncomfortably as he faced the window, but he didn't dare look back for fear of vomiting.
His eyes were dazzled, and Yan Jue glanced over. It turned out to be the mobile phone that he had just dropped out of shock.
etc……
Yan Jue picked up the phone with trembling hands. After reading the content on the new banner, he closed his eyes and fainted for two seconds.
[The gift has been delivered.
Running Fish: A specialty from the continent of Atlantis, a gift from the mermaid prince Noel Atlantis.]
A fish can actually run! When a strange black shadow first appeared on the ocean floor, the mermaids living there were terrified. For a time, the fish were in a state of panic, and rumors of a monster spread. Finally, one day, five brave mermaids formed a death squad and captured the shadow, only to discover that it was actually a fish with legs.
Note from Noel Atlantis:
[Teacher, the body of the fish is best eaten cooked. It has a bit of a seaweed smell when eaten raw, but the four legs are best eaten raw. They are chewy, sweet, and satisfying. Super delicious. Awooo~]
