Chapter 75 [VIP]
"Host, there's currently no solution for the Cloud Fairy Palace, but the Sky Garden..." 184 said dejectedly, "It seems the Tong can't do anything either."
Mingzhu: “…”
"Okay, anyway... I was just saying it casually." Mingzhu felt helpless, but there was nothing he could do. After all, he had been with him for two generations. No matter how stupid he was, 184 was still a treasure.
"Can I draw the hanging garden myself?" Mingzhu suddenly asked.
"???" 184 was confused and hesitated for a long time before answering. "How do you plan to draw this, host?"
"Just draw it like you normally would," Mingzhu replied bluntly. "Give me the permissions, and I'll do it myself."
184 was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke, "I drew the blueprint myself. I asked the Maomao Construction Team to do it. The materials needed are double."
Mingzhu: "...184, you are being immoral."
"What's immoral about that?" 184 disagreed with Mingzhu's point and argued. "Host, don't think Tong is easy to talk to and slander him with such words."
Mingzhu said, "Hey, if I really came to slander you, I wouldn't say such words to you."
184 didn't believe Mingzhu's words, mainly because Mingzhu had a long criminal record. He said he wouldn't lie to him, but he often coaxed him. But it was undeniable that Mingzhu wouldn't harm 184, just as 184 wouldn't harm Mingzhu.
They have been together for two generations. Their relationship is not very close, but at least in this world, apart from himself, 184 is the only one he can trust.
It's no longer simply a relationship between host and system. After spending so much time with 184, Mingzhu almost feels like a grandson, having to serve 184 like a superior every day, and he can't help but complain.
Mingzhu often teases 184. If there is something wrong, he is the first to give in and even coax 184.
That's how it is now.
Mingzhu angered 184, so he could only choose to coax him slowly, and not just in an ordinary way.
After finally coaxing 184, Mingzhu was shocked that 4 hours had passed. It is conceivable how easy and difficult it is to coax 184.
After coaxing for a while, 184 finally said that he was no longer angry with Mingzhu.
"Host, you draw it." 184 said sympathetically, "After you finish drawing it, give it to the system for evaluation. It can still be counted as a special building."
"Thank you very much."
Mingzhu smiled and said nothing more. It was obvious that sometimes Mingzhu didn't mean to criticize 184. It was just that 184's mechanical brain was sometimes not very smart.
Mingzhu began to draw. No, he wasn't the only one drawing. He recruited many people, especially top architecture graduates facing the end of their lives, unable to even carry cement at a construction site. He recruited them all to draw the blueprints.
Although Mingzhu needed to copy the drawings drawn by others, it was still better than imagining it out of thin air. Mingzhu not only asked them to draw the Fairy Palace on the Clouds, but also the Hanging Gardens and the Floating Island.
Essentially, these three structures are all the same: they're all structures that float in the air. They don't quite conform to kinetics, but then again, the infrastructure used by Mingzhu itself is more theological than scientific, so if it doesn't conform, then it doesn't conform.
All of a sudden, all the guys involved in drawing the blueprints began to draw like crazy. In just a few days, they produced hundreds of exquisite and beautiful blueprints.
They were all related to the "Sky Fortress" and were all purely oriental Chinese architectural types. Each drawing was very beautiful. Mingzhu was unable to make a decision for a moment, so he asked 184 which one he thought was suitable. Unexpectedly, 184 replied that each one looked suitable, so Mingzhu should copy them all and build them slowly.
Mingzhu: “…”
"How long would it take me to copy hundreds of architectural drawings?" Mingzhu said speechlessly. "What I mean is, pick a few that you think are suitable. I'll copy them first and see how much building materials are needed after submitting them to the system."
Who the hell wants to copy all of them? If they can be sold like the drawings of the ice room, then it doesn't matter how much they copy. Since he came to this world, he should make some contribution to this world, not just to earn starlight coins.
"Then... help the host select three drawings, and the host will copy three copies first."
184 began to use his ingenuity and began to carefully select. In addition to 184, Jin Suanpan and other NPCs also helped, and quickly selected three architectural drawings that they thought were most suitable.
Mingzhu took a look and thought it was indeed beautiful, but also quite ordinary. He guessed that the construction materials didn't cost much.
As expected, Mingzhu copied the three selected construction drawings and handed them to 184 to scan into the system. The basic materials required were indeed not many.
However, it requires a space-type crystal core or a dark space stone. The former is not common in the space-type, and the latter is a different time and space stone.
The price of 10 million for a single satellite may not seem expensive, but it will cost at least around 10 million to build a floating building.
Emmm. Ten million for a single stone, 10 for 100 million, 30 for 500 million. That's the price of a single Netherworld Stone. If you include other items, a single floating structure would cost at least 1 billion.
The more Mingzhu calculated, the colder his heart became. After a long while, he couldn't help but ask 184. "It really can't be less?"
"The prices of goods in the Trans-Space Mall aren't fixed," 184 said unhappily. "Besides, if you think they're too expensive, the host can always check out the limited-time flash sales during the midnight special."
Mingzhu: “…”
"Mingzhu said doubtfully.
"Yes, this will only appear when the base is upgraded to level 5." "So, host, your current goal is to upgrade the Taoyuan base as quickly as possible, and all functions will be unlocked."
Mingzhu: "...What a hassle."
"Let me see how many more people are needed to upgrade." Mingzhu began to calculate the number of people and buildings. The buildings were not lacking, but the people...
Since the extremely hot weather began, people have continued to join the Taoyuan base, but because the weather is so hot, most of the time, everyone chooses to travel at night and sleep during the day.
Such behavior creates certain risks. After all, walking at night is more dangerous than walking during the day.
Moreover, the current ground fissure situation has not been effectively improved. There are still some remaining zombies and abnormal plants, and the night environment can be said to be extremely unsafe.
But in the daytime these days, if you are not careful, you will be sunburned to death. Rather than dying, it is better to choose a way to travel with a high risk of death.
"Old Zhao's wife passed away quietly in the early hours of the morning." In the silence, someone suddenly began to recite a novel.
"The ice had long since melted, and the small room was filled with the smell of death."
"Old Zhao held his wife's increasingly cold hand and recalled their wedding fifty years ago. It was a cool summer day, and the yard was full of jasmine flowers."
Mingzhu: "...that Jin Shaoyao, where did you hear this story from?"
"Oh, Professor Fu and his team have built a local area network for the Taoyuan base," Jin Shaoyao said with a smile. "The book I'm reading is called 'Extreme Heat Waves: I Became the Central Air Conditioner.'"
Mingzhu: “…”
