Before entering the instance again, Xia Chuhe inspected the construction progress of Taotie City.
The city's outline has been laid, the water source has been introduced, large water purifiers have been installed, and water pipes have been largely laid. The next step is to construct buildings according to districts, starting with the office hall, followed by the trading area and livestock farms.
After two days apart, Bu Yi has compiled new information about the food and amusement park.
“I analyzed the people who receive rewards from amusement parks and found that in addition to those who tell good stories, some people with pleasant voices can also add extra charm to the story and receive rewards.”
Xia Chuhe understood perfectly. For audiobooks, a pleasant and engaging narrator's voice is definitely a plus.
“I think we could select some people with nice voices, form a team, and take turns going to the amusement park to farm rewards,” Bu Yi suggested.
"Okay, just don't take up other people's resources."
"There's another thing. Recently, some people have been bringing in pre-written stories to read. I've heard that the people who write these stories are non-evolved beings."
Xia Chuhe pondered for a moment: "This is a good thing. Non-evolved individuals already have very few ways to obtain resources. Having another way will alleviate the pressure on their lives. Do you know who these people are?"
"I don't know, should we check?"
"Let's not investigate for now. Although Taotie City, Dream Chaser City, and the Trading Post are now connected, there's still an obstacle between the Trading Post and the base that non-evolvers can't overcome. Let's talk about it when everything is connected."
...
After watching Taotie City, 123 tossed a little gadget to Xia Chuhe.
A small robot with a super long tail, with a large ball hanging from the end of the tail.
The little robot stood on the table in front of Xia Chuhe and said listlessly, "I'm glad you kept your promise, but I don't like this body."
"What is this?" Xia Chuhe looked at 123 with a puzzled expression.
Little robot: "I am Xiao Ai."
123 explained, “There’s too much information in the chip; ordinary machines can’t handle that massive amount of information. But the little robots you gave me before could… so I installed a chip reader on them, and that’s how it turned out.”
The sound of 123 grew softer and softer, and Xia Chuhe couldn't help but chuckle.
"Alright, you can make do with this for now. I'll go back to your hometown another day and help you find a new body."
Xiao Ai's hometown is naturally a romantic setting.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ai, trailing her long tail, trotted over to the laptop, extended a finger, and plugged it into the computer. (At Xiao Ai's insistence, 123 modified one of the little robot's fingers into a laptop interface.)
The drawing software on the computer opened automatically, the brush started working, and a lifelike human body appeared in the picture.
It was a strong and aesthetically pleasing body, with full and smooth muscle lines, and a slender yet explosive waist.
Xiao Ai carefully drew a line next to her body and specially marked it: 1.9 meters.
Her ideal height is 1.9 meters.
Xia Chuhe tried hard to ignore her flat yet full chest and bare crotch, but it was hard to ignore such a unique design: "What does this mean?"
“I don’t need any gender characteristics,” Xiao Ai answered skillfully, as if she had been asked this question before.
Xiao Ai's experiences have instilled in her a fear of being a woman and a fear of being a man.
She wasn't truly human; she was merely a machine. Therefore, she didn't need gender characteristics; she didn't even need to be human. A human body simply made things easier, especially her ten dexterous fingers—that alone put her far ahead of all other creatures Xiao Ai had ever seen.
Xia Chuhe hadn't considered the reason, but she immediately understood Xiao Ai's choice. After all, the mechanical boy she had dealt with before also lacked gender characteristics. For machines, gender is truly the least important thing.
After drawing the overall shape of the body, Xiao Ai drew various parts, marked the dimensions, and finally printed them out.
"Thank you for your help," Xiao Ai said.
"I'll see where I can get these things made." Xia Chuhe agreed, then couldn't help teasing her, "These parts look difficult to make, and probably not cheap. How will you pay for them?"
123 said softly, "She paid for it; Xiao Ai helped upgrade the forum. Now, even if the forum is completely open, it can still bypass the monitoring from above."
Xia Chuhe's heart was racing.
In the context of high technology, the essence of war is information warfare; whoever has more information has a greater chance of winning.
"Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮" Xiao Ai proudly swung her tail, but unfortunately the big ball at the end of her tail was too heavy and she couldn't swing it... The line representing her tail swayed back and forth like a jump rope being swung by two people.
Xia Chuhe suppressed a laugh.
...
Inside the office, before 123 and Xiao Ai had even left, there was another knock on the door.
"Lord of the City, are you there? I have something very important to say!" A strong female voice came from outside the door; it was Zhu Guanshan.
"Come in."
“Lord, I see…” Zhu Guanshan immediately shut up when he realized there was someone in the room.
123 picked up Xiao Ai: "I'll go and look into the forum upgrade again."
After 123 left, Zhu Guanshan took out the living map and spread it out in front of Xia Chuhe: "City Lord, there is a dungeon moving towards Taotie City."
Zhu Guanshan pointed to the location of the instance: "It was originally a romance instance on the other side of the narrow mountain path, but today I suddenly discovered that it has crossed the path. At this rate, it will probably move to the vicinity of Taotie City in about ten days. Is this instance trying to retaliate against us by turning Taotie City into an instance entrance?"
Zhu Guanshan wasn't quite sure what exactly happened in the romance scenario, but he heard afterward that Xia Chuhe had really offended Cupid.
"Are there many mobile copies?"
"Not many. There are only a handful of mobile instances in the entire wasteland."
When it comes to mobile instances, Xia Chuhe only knows one.
When she first arrived in the wasteland, the first abandoned safe house she entered was abandoned because of the surrounding mobile dungeons. And those mobile dungeons were Bao'er's hometown, the Ice and Snow World.
Later, because Xia Chuhe took away the core of the dungeon, the Ice and Snow World collapsed, and the mobile dungeon disappeared.
Having been in the wasteland for more than half a year, Xia Chuhe had only seen this one moving instance. If Zhu Guanshan hadn't mentioned it, Xia Chuhe would have forgotten that instances could move.
Xia Chuhe comforted Zhu Guanshan: "Don't worry, just keep observing, there won't be any problems."
The Love Instance actually has two masters: Cupid only has half the authority, and the other half is with Xiao Ai.
Xia Chuhe was originally going to enter the romance instance to find a body for Xiao Ai, and now he can take Xiao Ai back with him to see what kind of trouble Cupid is up to.
If Cupid is not honest...
Xia Chuhe slowly tapped the table with his index finger. If Cupid didn't behave, he would take away half of her authority, giving Xiao Ai complete control. Or, he would find a way to cause the instance to collapse.
Zhu Guanshan shrank back involuntarily as he watched Xia Chuhe's actions.
Strange, why is the city lord suddenly exuding such a strong aura? It's a little scary.
