Hydra surveyed its surroundings once more, still somewhat traumatized by having just been bitten to death.
"As for tools, we can find hard stones, or we can first clear away the grass on the ground, and then clear away the trees when we have the tools."
The hydra pointed to the debris on the ground.
There are plenty of stones and branches in the forest, which you can pick up and use.
With Hydra's presence as a testimonial, the players naturally agreed to deal with the waist-high vegetation first. The bushes were too dangerous; no one knew if a Garen might jump out.
Demacia!
"Anyway, this village isn't big; we can definitely finish cleaning it up within a day, as long as we all work together... Ah!!!"
Before the hydra could finish speaking, it rolled down the grassy slope again.
This is the second time!!!
The hydra that rolled down was internally devastated.
I was the leader of this meeting, how am I supposed to face people now!
"Hahaha!"
The players burst out laughing. "I feel like this just happened! Hahaha!"
"He might have a 100% chance of being rolled off!"
However, Hydra fared better this time; he didn't die, and he dusted himself off and stood up again.
However, a plum blossom-shaped mark appeared on her buttocks.
One player leaned closer for a closer look and said with great confidence, "These are rabbit footprints. You must have been kicked down by a rabbit. My family used to keep rabbits, so I'm sure of it."
A rabbit that can kick a grown man off the ground, Bugs Bunny?
This rabbit must be experienced.
The players were all eager to try, and faced with the temptation of leveling up, they would kill even a dragon, let alone a rabbit.
The beta testers were all very enthusiastic, crouching down and starting to pull up the grass, thinking there might be other monsters hiding in it!
The players cleared the vegetation quickly; half an hour later, they had already leveled a large patch of vegetation at the village entrance.
During this time, some venomous snakes and lizards emerged, but the players easily dealt with them and converted them into experience points.
"Why do I suddenly feel weak and powerless? Could I be poisoned?" a player shouted suddenly while pulling up some grass.
"Yeah! Me too! I feel weak and listless, like, maybe, I'm hungry?"
"Yes! This is a hunger state, it's displayed on the player's status, so pay attention! If you stay in a hunger state, you might die, after all, this is supposed to be a 100% virtual reality game."
Although Wang Ergouzi was subsequently relegated to the dog race, he still had a lot of fun. His dog paws could dig at the ground much faster than a person could pull weeds by hand.
Wang Ergouzi even found joy in digging up grass.
With increased physical activity, Wang Ergouzi inevitably entered a state of hunger. Just like the player said before, he might starve to death if he didn't eat.
He looked left and right and noticed that many players were looking at him.
"Don't you dare lay a finger on me, you bastards! Dogs are man's best friend! Go get a Snickers bar if you're hungry!"
Wang Ergouzi rolled his eyes, plucked another handful of grass, gritted his teeth, turned off his sense of taste, put the grass in his mouth, chewed it a couple of times, and swallowed it.
Grass isn't something you can't eat!
Unexpectedly, after swallowing the grass, my hunger gradually subsided!
I'm such a genius!
"Brothers! Eating grass can relieve hunger!"
Upon discovering the new continent, Wang Ergouzi quickly shouted loudly.
Without hesitation, some players who were starving grabbed the grass around them and started eating it, successfully relieving their hunger.
"Grass tastes awful, ptooey ptooey ptooey!"
"Are you stupid? Turn off your taste buds before you eat! Hahaha!"
"I think Wang Ergouzi looks tastier."
"roll!"
Aside from the players who pulled weeds, some other players found some hard stones, ground them into rough stone axes, and finally managed to chop down a few small trees.
These players are those with strong hands-on skills.
On the first day, the players' results were quite impressive.
Weeding and chopping trees are obviously tedious activities, but these players are having a great time doing them.
Some players have also discovered that eating the carcasses of small animals can help alleviate hunger.
Some were even sacrificed at the Heavenly Altar, but unfortunately, they only received a fraction of a skill fragment.
"By the way, why are you making players sacrifice all this random stuff?"
Liu Xingyao was somewhat puzzled, as Heaven itself didn't need these things.
"It's used for purification. This planet has been modified by the cultivation civilization, and it will automatically generate spiritual energy that is beneficial to the cultivation civilization. And the spiritual energy should be in a natural state."
"I can use the Heavenly Dao Altar to transform these polluted creatures or objects into natural spiritual energy."
Liu Xingyao nodded. Tiandao had actually put a lot of thought into it!
This purification process feels like returning to nature; it's a huge undertaking!
"But to be honest, I thought they would get tired of it soon, but after a whole day of weeding and cutting down trees, they still have so much energy!"
Tiandao was somewhat surprised by the players' resilience.
"Just kidding! Nobody gets tired of something as fun as clearing land."
Liu Xingyao felt a great sense of accomplishment watching the players diligently explore the other world.
Liu Xingyao felt a deep sense of pride as his plan began to get on track.
"You keep an eye on it, I'll go back and check first."
Liu Xingyao took a look at the players' actions and prepared to go back to perform maintenance and updates on the official website.
With the closed beta test successfully launched, Liu Xingyao naturally had to issue an announcement.
"Okay, go ahead and get busy."
Tiandao, however, continued to watch the players pull weeds and chop down trees with great interest, showing no sign of boredom.
In the long life of awakening his intelligence through the Heavenly Dao, only now does he find it particularly interesting.
The Heavenly Dao's daily life is actually quite boring; besides opposing the cultivation civilization, there's nothing else he can do.
In truth, Heaven was very grateful to Liu Xingyao, this soul from another world.
It was the changes and enjoyment he brought to himself.
Having returned home through the blue portal, Liu Xingyao opened the website's backend and activated the automatic maintenance function.
Regular maintenance is essential for both official websites and forums.
With nothing else to do, Liu Xingyao posted a new announcement on the forum.
"Warmly celebrate the successful completion of the first closed beta test of the game 'Tiandao Zhong'. The game is currently running normally."
Not long after the announcement was released, the comments section was flooded with messages. Some were clamoring for beta test slots, while others were begging for a public beta. Everyone was making a great fuss.
Below Liu Xingyao's announcement was the most popular post at the moment, and Liu Xingyao glanced at the title.
"Don't miss out! Professional game streamer Wang Ergouzi will give you a comprehensive understanding of 'Tiandao Zhong,' including the latest strategies from the first closed beta test—a fantastic release is coming soon!"
