Chapter 24: The First Day of Rebirth (10,000 Nutrient Solution, plus more) May I ask...
First day of rebirth:
[Your friend Monkey D. Dragon is using the Telltale Heart. Do you want to revive him?]
【whether】
Wendy immediately and eagerly chose [Yes].
But this time a second dialog box popped up.
[You have survived for more than 3000 days and can choose to load 3 mods. Do you want to use mod permissions? ]
【whether】
Wendy suddenly became excited—finally, she could load mods! While the vanilla version had its own fun, this world was so dangerous and open, so of course she'd choose to load mods! It would significantly improve the gaming experience!
Wendy excitedly began choosing mods. Then she became troubled – she wanted so many mods! Three wasn't enough!
Not to mention the common ones like teleportation signs, global positioning, and stacking 99, she wants to play a farming style later, like quick picking, resurrection, expanding equipment bar and so on... She wants to use them all!
Wendy hesitated for a long time before finally choosing three.
【Teleport Sign Mod】: What if the place you want to go is too far? You can create a sign anywhere, enter your information on it, and then click to teleport between signs.
Note: Only usable by the player and their companions. Teleporting consumes both Food and Sanity based on the distance traveled. Once the player exceeds their maximum Food and Sanity, they will be unable to teleport.
Adult Body Mod: Does your fixed appearance limit your interactions with NPCs? Want to participate in more adult activities? Load this mod to change your appearance to an adult body. You're no longer a child! Now you can vote in community elections like a grown-up!
Note: This is only for characters whose initial image is a minor.
[Resurrection Mod]: Are you still worried about the tedious process of resurrection? After loading, you can resurrect right on the corpse!
Note: After loading, once the player dies, he will directly turn into a corpse, making it easier for the player to revive on his own corpse. This applies to all human corpses.
Wendy looked at the three of them and was very satisfied.
First, she'd wanted wooden sign teleportation for a long time; it was practically a must-have for every game. Secondly, she felt her 14-year-old body was a bit slow for walking, and an adult's body was more convenient!
As for the resurrection mod... you'll know after watching this time.
She didn't want to drift in the black and white world of the sea for seven days anymore! At night, her vision would even turn to black! Every once in a while, she would have to open the map to check her direction!
After selecting the mod, Wendy will be loaded directly and then resurrected.
This time, she loaded a girl who looked like she was about 17 or 18 years old and close to adulthood. However, because it was set here, she was still a petite figure of 1.6 meters.
After the dragon caught her and revived her in mid-air, she didn't come down immediately. Instead, she asked him expectantly, "How is it? My new look!"
...What new appearance? Has there been any change since his resurrection? — Long hesitated.
He hadn't realized that Wendy had remained in her youthful, less than 14-year-old lolita form for the past few years. He naturally assumed she'd grown up, and wasn't surprised by her current appearance. As for her clothes... they didn't seem much different from when he'd last seen her. The same pink color had persisted for ten years, and Long even thought it looked like the same exact piece.
Could it be her hairstyle? But he had already forgotten what Wendy's hairstyle was before, and it always seemed the same, nothing had changed...
But he also knew that he couldn't refute anything at this time, so he nodded and said, "Yeah, it looks good."
Wendy was delighted. After she came down, she looked curiously at Ivankov, whose mouth was wide open and his jaw was about to drop. "Long, who is he?"
Long introduced him: "This is my current companion, Ivankov. Ivankov, this is Wendy."
"Hello," Wendy said, then excitedly grabbed Long's arm, chattering non-stop. "I've been drifting across the sea looking for you for ages! I finally see you! Do you have any ingredients? I want to make some food first... Oh, and later you need to share your travels with me. I'll be your cartography table, and you can draw me a map. By the way, what's with that tattoo on your face? Did you get a new skin, too?"
She is actually not a talkative person, but because she hasn't seen the first friend given by the novice village for a long time, and her soul has been drifting on the sea for too long and she is bored, she rarely wants to talk much now.
Long was pulled away by Wendy just like that.
Although he was a tall man over two meters and five, he did not resist at this time. He even looked like he was following the person obediently, and his body was half bent over to cooperate.
Ivankov's jaw never recovered from its drop until someone came over, lifted it back up, and asked, "What's wrong? Where's Long? Is he feeling better?"
"He should be fine..." Ivankov replied blankly, then turned around and announced loudly with a shocked look on his face, "But there's something else!"
***
Although only Ivankov saw Wendy's magical performance, everyone in the revolutionary army was surprised by Wendy's appearance.
They knew a little about Wendy before.
It’s not that Long mentioned it specifically, but because Long always carries with him a backpack that looks ordinary but seems to be able to hold a lot of things, and he never takes it off (because Long is afraid that Wendy’s heart inside will be seen by others and cause misunderstanding).
Whenever someone asked about the backpack, Long would explain its origins. He would not introduce Wendy in detail, nor would he reveal Wendy's fruit ability, but would simply say, "This is a gift from my friend Wendy."
Acquaintances, such as Ivankov, would ask who Wendy was. Because Wendy was so amazing that it would be useless for others to know about her, Long was reluctant to discuss her, simply saying she was a girl he knew from his hometown.
Then Ivankov treated Wendy as Long's childhood sweetheart.
I had only heard about it before...but now I actually saw it!
The way she appeared was something he had never imagined! And she looked younger than he expected! Or was it because she looked cute that she looked younger?
"That's the owner of Long's backpack that he never leaves behind..." Ivankov sighed, following behind. He was a little surprised when he saw Long leading Wendy to familiarize himself with the surroundings. Although Long usually had a serious face and rarely got angry, this was the first time he saw him so patient and proactive!
"Is it someone very important to Long? The reason why Long was uneasy before was because of that lady?" Ivankov's subordinate Lightning looked at that side in surprise and followed Ivankov.
"You... it's not good to follow us like this, right?" Bartholomew Kuma, a cadre of the revolutionary army, hesitated to speak from behind, trying to stop them.
The two people in front turned around at the same time, looking at the other person's height of more than six meters, and retorted in unison: "It's really not good for you to follow!"
Meanwhile, Long, responding to Wendy's request to "explore the map," was guiding her around the area, while asking, "What's going on? What happened to you?"
"That's a long story. I'll tell you later." After Wendy took a quick look around to familiarize herself with the surroundings, she asked Long to take her to the kitchen. After collecting a bunch of raw materials, she went to look for some basic materials.
Fortunately, some of her basic materials can be found almost anywhere people live.
After gathering the three materials of branches, charcoal and stones, Wendy began to build the pot on the spot. The charcoal and branches were given by the dragon, and the stones were thrown at her by the dragon on the spot.
Because they had lived together before and had witnessed her amazing technology, when Wendy made a request, Long just did it silently without asking any questions.
After building the pot, Wendy threw in 1 piece of fish, 1 branch, and 2 pieces of any fruit or vegetable. While waiting, she explained to Long, "I just resurrected, so my health is low. Let me eat and recover first."
After resurrection, her health is only half, which is too dangerous! As a fragile character, she must ensure her health is healthy!
Wendy's Crock Pot takes a very short time to cook; a fish fillet takes only 40 seconds. It was ready within seconds of her saying that.
Wendy took the fish fillet off and finished it in one gulp. Seeing her health recover instantly, she breathed a sigh of relief, then put another pot of fish in it and began to briefly explain her experience to Long while cooking.
"I had a conflict with a new friend I met after you. He killed his brother and was not nice to me. I was unhappy, so I just died and came to find you." Wendy summed it up in simple words.
Long: "..." That's too brief! Although it's all important information, the amount of information is too much! And it's completely confusing! And why does it sound like you're still in suicide mode?!
Perhaps his expression hinted at some doubts. Wendy thought for a moment and added, "But dying once does have its benefits. I just learned that resurrection is the key to unlocking the Triumph suit. This suit looks great. I'll change it for you later."
In fact, she also unlocked the Victorian suit that she had wanted for a long time... but after checking, she found that the unlocking condition was the death of a companion, because the dress was called [Mourning Dress].
I won’t tell you this to scare my only friend right now.
She also decided to wear this outfit to the child when she saw Luo again. She also wondered if there would be a tombstone for Rosinante, so she and Luo could visit the grave together.
Long felt like he didn't understand what she said at all, but knowing Wendy's personality, he was also very patient, so he just sighed and said, "Just take your time cooking first."
As it stands, Wendy won't take the time to properly communicate and answer questions until she's done what she wants to do.
This was the base of his organization. He left Wendy here and went back to talk to his companions who were secretly following and peeking but actually couldn't hide themselves at all. He told Wendy that she was his friend and would stay here for a while.
"Although her personality is a bit strange and her behavior is a bit confusing, she is actually a kind girl at heart," Long introduced. "She won't stay for long. She will leave after replenishing her supplies."
Wendy told him that she would get some materials from him and then continue to go out to sea.
The others looked at him with various expressions, nodded, and no one objected.
Originally, Long was their leader. They gathered here because they trusted in each other's leadership, and naturally they would also believe in his ability to recognize people.
Ivankov hesitated and asked, "So...was your previous poor mental state also because of Miss Wendy?"
The dragon was silent.
He was thinking about how to respond... How to say it?
He had just asked Wendy about this and learned that it was a side effect of the heart. Once Wendy died, he would be negatively affected mentally until she was resurrected... But it felt strange to say, "Yes, it was Wendy's death that affected me," and he didn't want others to know that Wendy had the means to resurrect.
It wasn't because he didn't trust his companions, but rather because this was a secret that only a few people should know. Wendy himself didn't mind it because he was simple-minded, but he needed to pay attention.
So, after a long silence, Long nodded and said, "Yes."
The way other people looked at him changed a little.
At this moment, the door opened with a bang and Wendy rushed in.
"Dragon! I made you something to cheer you up! It's a vegetable cocktail, it's very effective, drink it!"
Wendy, who had changed into a nice new outfit, took out the vegetable cocktails she had just made from her backpack, poured one cup after another into five cups, and then checked them.
3 tomatoes, 1 ice cube, and you have a glass of icy cold and pink vegetable cocktail!
One cup of vegetable cocktail can restore 33 sanity points, and five cups are enough for Long to restore to full sanity! It was only when Long asked her about it that she remembered that her friends would continue to lose sanity after their deaths.
But even though Long guessed it and lost sanity for a week, he didn't destroy her heart, which touched her a little - she really had a good eye for friends! How reliable was the first friend!
After putting the cocktails in the pot, Wendy rushed out again: "I'll make you a wreath later!"
If there is a walrus hut where you can get a walrus beret, you can wear it and recover sanity quickly. However, although there are creatures similar to walruses in this world, they do not wear berets, so naturally they do not drop them.
Although the wreath's sanity recovery effect is slow, it is better than nothing.
"Hua Lei won't..." Long opened his mouth to stop her, but before he could, he saw Wendy rush out with his hand only halfway raised.
Long: "..." He is still the same as before, doing his own thing, hardly listening to others and not caring about other people's opinions at all.
However, he knew how amazing the food the other party made was, so he picked up the cocktail in front of him and started drinking. After drinking three glasses, he felt that his spirits had been fully restored.
After once again admiring Wendy's exceptional cooking attributes, he looked at his subordinates who were staring at him intently, coughed lightly, and said solemnly, "Alright, let's continue the meeting."
Others: “???”
Is it time for a meeting now?! Shouldn't you explain a lot of things first?!
-----------------------
Author's words: Reborn! A new skin on the cover! It's also a triumph set I really like!
Private settings survive for a thousand days and can load a new mod [sunglasses]
The mod description is also a private setting, the adult form is also a private setting...it remains unchanged in the game, but we still need CP after all [dog head]
Just play the game by yourself, add whatever you want, but be careful of mod conflicts... I have had several files that were thousands of days old broken because of mod incompatibility. I was very angry but there was nothing I could do. Pure files are too tiring.
PS: This is an additional update of the nutrient solution!
PPS: Some readers have complained that midnight is too late... Do you find it inconvenient? (It doesn't matter to me, because I still have manuscripts saved and I'm a jet lag fan.)
