Chapter 93 Yuan Yi and the Human Race: The Ninety-Third Day of Creating a Game
Zhu Rong's words were like setting off a fire in a hurry, and Xuan Ming, who had been immersed in grief, was so startled by these urgent words that he lost his composure.
He stopped howling and just stared blankly at the sky, saying, "This isn't good, is it?" But he couldn't quite put his finger on why, only feeling that something was off if he really did what Zhu Rong did.
"Hmph." Zhu Rong stood with her arms crossed. "This won't do, that won't do, no wonder Father God doesn't need you."
These words were like stirring up a hornet's nest. Xuanming's eyes widened to the size of horse bells, and his fists, as big as clods of earth, were raised straight up: "Bullshit!"
You can say whatever you want about him, but you absolutely cannot say that the Father God doesn't need him. Moreover, Xuanming had just suffered the Father God's sigh in the game, and he couldn't bear to hear such words. His anger flared, and he directly attacked Zhurong.
Fortunately, Zhu Rong's purpose in saying this wasn't to start a fight with Xuan Ming. He slightly turned to dodge the punch: "Otherwise, since the mistake of betraying Father God in the game has already happened, what's the use of crying now!"
“Since Houtu forbids us from going to Wuzhuang Temple, then let’s go to the human race in the game.” Zhu Rong’s eagerness changed. “All of this can’t have happened out of thin air. Since we met Father God in the game with the guidance of the human race, let’s try again.”
"Besides, Buzhou Mountain is also considered the burial place of the Father God. Even if there is nothing there, we, as the descendants of the Father God, should still go and pay our respects."
This statement is well-reasoned and supported by evidence. Even the single-minded Xuanming felt that what Zhu Rong said made a lot of sense, just like what his sister said.
He raised his fist and thought for a while. Doing this neither disobeyed his sister's instructions nor did he do anything immoral. Since it wasn't something that couldn't be done, then it was something that could be done.
Thinking of this, Xuanming slowly lowered his fist and walked behind Zhurong: "Then let's go now."
"Walk."
Just as the water and fire rushed towards Mount Buzhou, a small human settlement at the foot of Mount Buzhou was bustling with activity.
"Fairy, should we loosen the soil before putting in the seeds, or put in the seeds first and then loosen the soil?"
"Fairy, it's raining. Would you like to rest in the soil?"
The calls of "Fairy" rose and fell, seemingly without end. Yuan Yi, who was called a fairy, was standing under a virtual tree of light, following the veins of Buzhou Mountain step by step to connect the formation here with other formations in the primordial land.
After learning of the birth of the human race and Nuwa's ascension to sainthood, Yuan Yi, entrusted by Nuwa, immediately went to Buzhou Mountain.
But the closer one gets to home, the more timid one becomes. Although it was only in a past life, the initial experience of being human was still etched in Yuan Yi's mind.
What were the earliest humans like? And what differences could she bring to them?
Yuan Yi wanted to struggle with the decision, but time didn't give her the chance.
With the launch of "Miracle of the Primordial World" imminent, this is an excellent opportunity for the human race to officially step onto the grand stage of the primordial world.
Then Yuan Yi discovered that the current human race was completely different from the primitive human race he had imagined, who practiced slash-and-burn agriculture and wore tattered clothes.
Whose primitive people wore so many brightly colored and varied clothes?
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the clothing style was about 80% similar to the one in the game that had not yet been released for public testing.
Yuan Yi felt a stomachache she hadn't experienced in a long time. Who copied whom? Was it because of her past life's experiences that she subconsciously created the earliest human clothing, or was the game leaked before it even launched?
The first thought was quickly dismissed. After all, even in the earliest days of humanity, it was impossible for clothing styles from different dynasties to appear simultaneously. Various costumes from the Qin, Han, and Ming dynasties, as well as the once-popular Neo-Chinese style, were all appearing in the human settlement, making Yuan Yi feel as if he had stumbled into some kind of Han-style clothing party.
However, Yuan Yi's confusion was quickly resolved. Hong Jun's alt account, who had been chatting in the game, was now instructing Yuan Yi to take good care of the human race in front of him.
The Heavenly Dao, having long benefited from the demographic dividend, welcomes any increase in the number of living beings. However, an excessive number of beings consumes more resources and causes more conflict, which will eventually exceed the carrying capacity of the primordial land. Even with the so-called Heavenly Emperor maintaining balance, it is ultimately only treating the symptoms, not the root cause.
On one hand, they were reluctant to give up the growth that more living beings would bring to the Primordial Heavenly Dao; on the other hand, they were worried that too many living beings would exceed the Primordial Heavenly Dao's carrying capacity.
Just when the Heavenly Dao was struggling with its dilemma and was planning to delay and take things one step at a time, the appearance of the human race was like a timely rain from heaven, and the Heavenly Dao's predicament was easily resolved.
This is the perfect chosen race for the Heavenly Dao: they reproduce rapidly, consume few resources, and are intelligent and highly adaptable. Most importantly, each of these clay figures has a short lifespan, only a little over a hundred years, so there's no need to worry about them multiplying and causing endless conflicts like the demon race.
Moreover, the Heavenly Dao knew of the great rise of the human race from the moment it was born.
At this moment, He openly and righteously showed favoritism, completely disregarding the demon race who had previously made careful arrangements for their future. Instead, He instructed Yuan Yi, who had rushed over, to take good care of the human race and, if necessary, to help them establish themselves in the prehistoric world.
Yuan Yi, who already had mixed feelings about the human race, stopped pretending and appeared directly in the human settlement after seeing the message from the Heavenly Dao.
Once inside, Yuan Yi naturally discovered the origin of the clothing worn by these humans.
It really is inseparable from her games.
It turns out that Nuwa was inspired by the game "Miracle of the Primordial World" and was inspired to create human beings. She even used the random face-shaping function in the game's formations when creating humans.
Nuwa achieved sainthood through her creation of humankind, attaining the Great Dao. The saying "When one attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven" plays a crucial role in this, naturally expanding the influence of "Miracle of the Primordial World."
These human characters created through character customization are also included in the scope of "Miracle Wilderness". They not only enjoy a free character customization opportunity after creating an account, but also come with an initial outfit.
How could real people actually enjoy the benefits in the game?! Even the game's creator, Yuan Yi, was greatly shocked.
But if we think about it from another angle, aren't these newly born humans the chosen NPCs of "Miracle Wilderness"?
With this idea in mind, Yuan Yi urgently modified the game's plot and early game content, and also linked the human race with Pangu by using the background story that Buzhou Mountain was formed from Pangu's spine.
Created by the sage Nuwa and protected by Pangu, who else in the entire prehistoric world could enjoy such treatment besides a handful of others?
We humans are born extraordinary, and are not beings that other races, who were born earlier in the world, can underestimate. With this thought in mind, Yuan Yi's story became more and more exciting as he wrote, determined to use the game to promote the human race.
However, propaganda alone is far from enough. If the human race wants to establish itself in the prehistoric world, it must have the means to survive there.
In the primordial world where the strong prey on the weak, strength is naturally the best asset. However, the human race's inherent constitution is too weak, and compared with other races, this path is indeed more difficult and cannot be achieved overnight.
Thinking of this, Yuan Yi sighed. Although he knew that the human race would surely prosper in the future, this inherent weakness was not easy to overcome. The immediate priority was to cultivate the skills that would allow the human race to establish itself in the prehistoric world.
After all, she was the ginseng fruit tree of Wuzhuang Temple and could not remain among the human race forever. If the human race wanted to stand upright in the prehistoric world and leave Buzhou Mountain to touch a wider world, it also had to leave the protection of other races.
All Yuan Yi can do is to give the human race more choices and more opportunities in the early stages of development.
Therefore, Yuan Yi, after obtaining the consent of the human race leader, incorporated the human race's image into the game.
Meanwhile, he also shaped the little ginseng that had been at the farm and placed it at the foot of Buzhou Mountain to teach humans primitive farming methods. He strived to get rid of the time when humans relied on the weather and gathered and hunted to fill their stomachs as quickly as possible.
After Yuan Yi's guidance ensured that the basic needs of food and clothing were met, she quickly became the most trusted fairy among humans, second only to Nuwa. Some humans even spontaneously worshipped Nuwa and Yuan Yi.
Seeing that the most primitive sacrificial ceremony was about to take place, Yuan Yi, who was being sacrificed, hurriedly stepped forward to stop it.
“Instead of worshipping me and the Sage Nuwa, let’s do something more meaningful,” Yuan Yi said.
Yuan Yi: "Is it enough to just fill your stomachs? You are children created by Nuwa herself, and you should create even more glorious legends."
Yuan Yi has mastered the art of manipulating players' emotions: "Although Buzhou Mountain is sparsely populated and bears the mark of Nuwa, the mark will eventually fade, and it is inevitable that other people will intrude into Buzhou Mountain."
"You should build more beautiful and sturdy shelters and develop the ability to protect yourselves, so that you can stand for a long time in the wilderness."
Once Yuan Yi explained the law of the jungle—survival of the fittest—outside the primordial world, the human race, who had always lived under the protection of Nuwa and Yuan Yi, finally awoke from their slumber.
The leader, dressed in a red dress, bowed and asked, "What good plan does the fairy have?"
"This is the city plan I designed based on Buzhou Mountain. Only someone who understands formations can understand how to build it. In the future, I will invite two teachers for you, and you will need to send someone to learn formations from them. With this city, ordinary little demons and monsters will not be able to break into the city and cause you any trouble."
As for how to deal with the powerful spirits and immortals of the Great Luo Golden Immortal level, Yuan Yi never mentioned it to the human race. He simply built a one-to-one replica of the city into the game beforehand.
Same location, same scenery, same NPCs, coupled with a heartwarming and touching storyline and a fully immersive gaming experience. I bet you won't be tempted!
Once you arrive at the ancestral land of the human race at the foot of Buzhou Mountain, it will be just like arriving at the starting village in the game. At that time, there will definitely be many people coming from the holy land to tour. Those who want to cause trouble will naturally be stopped by others.
Humanity cannot be confined to one corner, but if it had approached the world more gently from the beginning, it would likely have suffered far less harm.
Yuan Yi meticulously listed out the dangers and hardships that humanity would encounter in the future, and even delayed the game's launch until after the human city was established. He also personally funded the construction of a primordial network site at the foot of Buzhou Mountain, remaining with humanity to maintain the newly launched game.
By this time, quite some time had passed. The human leader standing to the side had shed the naivety she had when she first entered the world and had become more resolute. She murmured to the tree of light, "...The city of Buzhou has been built, and some humans with decent aptitude have been sent out of Buzhou to seek apprenticeships..."
Yuan Yi avoided seeing them, judging only by the strength of the formation that the city had the strength to withstand two attacks from a Taiyi Golden Immortal, and that ordinary people could not enter.
But just as this thought crossed his mind, two streaks of light, one blue and one red, descended from the sky and landed in the center of the city, smashing a large hole in the newly set-up formation.
