Chapter 138



After eating his share of the refreshing energy from the plants and trees, the big lion roared and went into his room, and told Bai Li that he was going to play games.

"But the game is currently down for maintenance, so you can't play it even if you want to," Bai Li kindly reminded.

The person in the room (the lion) was silent for a few seconds, and then said that he planned to calm down and digest this anger.

This answer was acceptable. Bai Li had no objection and just followed Wen Xingyao.

It just so happens that Xiong Pili and the others will be arriving soon, so there will be no close contact between the two parties, saving him the trouble of making excuses.

"Hey? Mr. Bai, did you change your pet?" Xiong Pili brought Mo Zhu and Ji Yingqi to the house. He looked curiously at the black fox cub that was comfortably nestling in Bai Li's arms and acting coquettishly. He was quite surprised.

He remembered that the last time he visited Mr. Bai, he had a light orange kitten, which looked fierce and sometimes a bit overbearing. He didn't expect that after only one month, it went from new love to old love. Could it be that Mr. Bai had sent it away?

Otherwise, considering how domineering the cat is, how could it allow this little fox to occupy Mr. Bai's arms?

After just one look, Xiong Pili imagined a big drama of "fighting for favor". After teasing, he felt that the fox gave him a strange feeling, not like an ordinary animal cub.

Instead, it’s like... an orc regressing to its childhood?

But is it possible? According to the regulations of the Empire, once the orcs regress to their infancy, they must be sent to the "Star Hope", where they can spend the last stage of their lives without worries.

In other words, the difference between the infancy of orcs and the cubs of ordinary animals is so small that it can almost be said that there is no difference. Even for orcs, it is difficult to detect it, which made Xiong Pili unable to determine for a moment whether he was wrong.

But who among the ordinary "Ancient Blue Star people" would keep a fox at home? Keeping kittens and puppies is acceptable... Forget it, Mr. Bai is not an ordinary person.

Thinking of this, Xiong Pili no longer paid attention to the black fox cub in Bai Li's arms.

Bai Li smiled and explained: "No, the Supreme... is resting in his room. I just ran into him in the yard at home. I took him in temporarily because he was homeless. His name is, um... let's call him Mo Shui."

After saying this, he quietly apologized to "Zhu Moling" in his heart, saying that these words were just to fool outsiders who didn't know the truth, and that he would probably only call him "Mo Mo" this once.

Xiong Pili: "..." This name was clearly chosen on the spot! As expected, the position of the overbearing kitten as the first wife is unshakable.

Practice makes perfect. Xiong Pili and the other two quickly upgraded Bai Li's holographic game builder to Class C. From then on, the game "Your Ran Tian Ju" will accommodate one million players, and the realism of the game has also been improved to 85%.

The number of players has skyrocketed 200 times from the original level, which means that Bai Li no longer has to worry about not being able to upgrade the holographic game builder due to the income from the game. By next month, it will be possible to upgrade to level A in one go.

However, Bai Li is used to moving up step by step, so he temporarily set the goal of reaching level B next month.

After sending Xiong Pili and the other two away, Bai Li first went to say hello to Wen Xingyao and asked him to help look after the fox cubs. Then he lay down in the game cabin and added all the content that needed to be updated in the game.

The maps of 199 "novice villages" need to include the location of the initial village entrance, wasteland, rivers, hillsides, mines, forests outside the village, etc. The forests also need various species of flowers, trees, and animal types... Bai Li added all the materials he could think of, set a fixed number of materials in the same map, and let the system randomly generate 199 maps.

He added thousands of types of materials, especially types of animals and plants, tall, short, fat, thin, flying, swimming, crawling, fragrant, smelly, beautiful, ugly, anything he could think of, he added it all.

However, these things will not appear in a map at the same time. Just capturing one-fifth of them is enough to make players who enter the game dazzled.

After the maps were generated, Bai Li took a rough look at each one. Except for a few maps with strange terrain, there were no major problems with the others. In the strange maps, there were either too many rivers and the land was scattered, or the small hills suddenly turned into hills. Even the wasteland within the village was undulating, with no large flat land.

This result made Bai Li unable to guarantee whether the players would accept such a "novice village". He thought about it and decided to let the new players fill out a "questionnaire" before officially entering the game, reflecting their expectations for the village in the questionnaire, and then the system would assign them to the appropriate novice village.

Of course, this operation cannot be perfect. There will always be people who fill in the information carelessly because of lack of patience, or who do not know what kind of village they like until they enter and regret it. But this is the most appropriate solution that Bai Li can think of. If the players are still not satisfied, they can only rely on their own efforts in the later stage to change the appearance of the entire village.

At worst, we can organize some activities related to this issue in the future!

After making the map of the Novice Village, Bai Li started to make the map of the mysterious "Ancient City". According to Bai Li's idea, this map was set up as a place for players to relax and have fun in their spare time. The template was based on the capital of an ancient dynasty he had visited.

It was a prosperous time, with bright lights and people welcoming another year of harvest walking together on the wide avenue in newly made clothes, with smiles on their faces brighter than the sunset glow. Exquisite, grand and simple buildings blend harmoniously together, and street stalls, small restaurants and lively pubs are full of the strong breath of life in every corner.

At night, the city presents another beautiful scene...

Bai Li did not intend to allow players to enter this special map at will, and deliberately set strict conditions. Only players who meet the conditions can have the opportunity to enter this map to play. At that time, running errands for NPCs in the "ancient city", doing some simple small tasks, and getting unique gifts in return can be regarded as an adventure.

After making the game map, it was the turn of the five new NPCs. Since the "Ancient City" map required too many NPCs, Bai Li planned to slowly add them later. The five NPCs to be made this time were all functional roles in the normal map. The fisherman was responsible for issuing fishing tasks, the flower lady had a large number of flower seeds and various drawings related to flowers, and the naughty child mastered various small games. As long as the players were willing to spend time playing with him, they would always gain something.

Old Wang stands outside the village gate all year round. He is an excellent driver. Players who want to go to other villages in the future must go through his guidance. As for the fortune teller... this character was actually added by Bai Li to make up the number. Since he is a fortune teller, all matters related to metaphysics will be left to him!

According to their respective settings, Bai Li described their specific appearances, and then handed them over to the omnipotent system for randomization. Although the appearances of the NPCs in the 200 villages are all different, they are actually more or less similar.

The game map and new NPCs are the biggest tasks Bai Li has to complete today. After getting these two things, things like new crop seeds, various fruit saplings, livestock cubs, and new sets and props to be put on the shelves in the game store are all easy tasks that can be done in minutes with just a thought.

By the time Bai Li came out of the game room, it was not even 12 o'clock. Hearing the sound of his door opening, Wen Xingyao came out from next door with the noisy fox cub.

"Bai Li, are you done so quickly?" Wen Xingyao knew that Bai Li was busy with something in the room. He thought it would take most of the day, but he didn't expect him to be done so quickly.

After seeing Bai Li appear, the fox cub calmed down, and looked up at Bai Li with its big fox eyes. There was less confusion and more agility in its eyes.

At first, Bai Li didn't notice this, and smiled and told Wen Xingyao that he would come out of the game cabin, which meant he had finished his work, and successfully got an admiring look from the other party. Then he noticed that the fox cub seemed to have become a little different, not wanting to jump into his arms as soon as he saw him like before, but became more reserved.

"What's wrong with him?" Bai Li looked at the fox cub, but asked Wen Xingyao.

Wen Xingyao explained with a smile: "Thanks to your previous feeding, he should be able to understand human language now."

As for why he stopped pouncing on Bai Li, it was because he took advantage of Bai Li's busy time to tell the fox cub that Bai Li was allergic to fox fur and would feel uncomfortable after every close contact. He told him not to always get close to people when he saw them, and successfully deceived the "innocent" fox cub.

This decision also made Wen Xingyao regret it in the near future. He often felt regretful in his heart. If he had known this would happen, why would he exclude others because of jealousy?

When Bai Li heard that the fox cub could actually understand human language, he thought that the fox cub had become sensible, so it didn't pounce on him. So he smiled and leaned over to touch his head.

As a result, the fox cub took several steps back with a look of fear on its face, directly avoiding Bai Li's touch.

Bai Li: “???” Is he that scary?

Wen Xingyao saw this and almost couldn't help laughing out loud. Fortunately, the hair on his face was thick, so even if his expression was exaggerated, it could cover it up a lot, and Bai Li didn't notice anything unusual.

Finally, the man, the lion and the fox lined up to go downstairs, and after having a sumptuous lunch, they enjoyed the rare offline time.

Bai Li spent the whole afternoon either resting in the living room or working in the yard. The yard of this villa is indeed quite large. After so many days of hard work, he only filled one-third of the area with soil, and planted seeds of vegetables and flowers in the soil. When they break through the soil, this originally silver-gray yard will have a large area of ​​greenery.

Compared with his leisurely and relaxed mood, netizens who were eagerly waiting for the time to grab numbers felt that these last few minutes were really too hard to endure.

When I was watching live game broadcasts, I felt that time passed very quickly. But why is it that today, I inexplicably felt that time was moving at 0.5 times the speed?

Fortunately, there are only 60 seconds left to count down, and the moment to decide whether they are unlucky or lucky will come.
