Chapter 83 The NPCs' living conditions are too harsh.
Losi had no clue and looked at the magical box.
Only after being reminded of this did Fang Qi realize that he had made a big mistake!
He forgot to have Vicky set the filtering conditions, and he didn't even add his own "Le Long"!
When asked about the underlying mechanisms, Fang Qi would absolutely not admit that it was a misunderstanding.
"Just say that the water-repelling piles can't distinguish between seawater and freshwater, but we've already contacted the Creation Machine, and it said it will resolve the issue as soon as possible. Tell Vance to be patient a little longer," he began to instigate Rose.
Rosie nodded almost imperceptibly and began to tug at Vance.
Fang Qi was pondering this business opportunity from the side.
Vance's words actually contained two meanings: one was to find fresh water, and the other was to get fresh water into his mouth.
The latter is actually easier to solve; Fang Qi can simply have Vicky add a patch to the cleaning logic of the water-repellent piles.
They could even package it up as a version update and charge a maintenance fee or something.
But making money once wasn't enough for him; he wanted to make it twice.
"Rosie, now make some glass cups and stamp them with our 'Vision' treasure chest logo."
"Vicky, in your logic for the water-repelling stake, add a clause to exclude items with the treasure chest logo."
"Okay," both Rose and Vicky replied.
"Hey, administrator, they say Qiling and Zhenyu are always hanging out together... could it be...?" Vicky suddenly said.
"Hiss..." Fang Qi gasped, "What did you see?"
"They're holding hands in the store right now..." Vicky exclaimed excitedly, "Oh no, an idea's struck me!"
She wrote furiously.
Fang Qi was speechless.
He felt that Vicky shouldn't be blue and semi-transparent, but should be dyed yellow and semi-transparent.
Isn't it normal for best friends to hold hands?
She can still gossip from this far away; her antennae on her head are truly worth it!
"Then it's settled." After finishing the business, Luo Xi ran to Fang Qi's side and offered to explain:
"Moving underwater is inconvenient, so the Creation Machine asked the Divine Stele for help in supplying resources."
Fang Qi continued, "The creation machine provides me with pure energy, and I help it sell goods."
Upon hearing this, Vance thought it made sense.
The monument needs standard blocks as energy, so it's normal to go directly to the manufacturer.
He did nothing and still got a 5% discount. The Divine Stele and the Creation Machine are both ancient magical technologies, so they must look good together. The discounts they offer are probably no less than his.
"Let's go, you can choose any place you like, Vance and I are going out for a bit." Seth strode forward, interrupting everyone's conversation.
The situation at the bottom of the sea is unclear, and as a professor, he needs to take the lead and go out to investigate.
Without waiting for anyone's response, he walked through the gate on his own.
Vance cupped his hands in apology, gave Fang Qi and Luo Xi an apologetic look, and quickly followed.
Only Fang Qi and Fang Qi remained at the scene.
Fang Qi didn't have any other thoughts. After Luo Xi prepared some goods, he led her towards the library and told Vicky to put the matter of the book aside and revise the logic of the water-avoiding pile first.
At the entrance of the Fantasy Library.
In just a short while, there were already dozens of people.
Fang Qi could only say that there are a lot of idle people, those who take resources and jump into the water, how could they not be idle?
Because Fang Qi set the activity area, players couldn't enter the instance or leave, and could only chatter in place.
A player with the ID "Reporter60" used a wooden stick as a microphone to conduct an interview: "Brother, how did you get here?"
"Me? That water looks like a hot spring. I was just about to soak in it..."
"Don't you feel any spiciness anywhere?"
"Huh? If you put it that way, there's definitely some truth to it."
The reporter clicked her tongue, deciding not to ask any more questions, and changed her target: "Hey sister, what about you?"
"Exploring the map, I've been collecting loot from players, there must be achievements at the bottom of the lake." The man said matter-of-factly.
"Are you here to mine too?"
"I won't dig, you dig yours."
"Then I'll go look for mining sites."
Suddenly, reporter 60's eyes lit up, and he went straight to Fang Qi: "Isn't that the Divine Stele? Brother Stele, how did you get here?"
"..." Fang Qi was silent for a moment: "I come from the Fantasy Library."
What else could Fang Qi say?
The reporter ran off very fast; he hadn't even thought of his lines yet.
The scene was filled not only with new players, but also with those who had finished their dungeons and were wandering around the Archaeology Department. They all gathered around at that moment.
Veteran players, knowing that the Divine Stele has the ability to handle multiple players at once, all mimicked the reporter's tone and said, "Brother Stele, let's exchange contribution points."
Fang Qi ignored them and simply threw out the list he had prepared for the journey.
The contribution points were exchanged for the same few things, but at the end, he added a resale business.
[Reseller: Deep Sea Blind Box (Exploration Edition), "Vision" Water Bottle.]
Without hesitation, the veteran player first exchanged for the "Transcendent Skill" clue. The prompt told him to find the "Spirit of the Book," but he was puzzled and decided to deal with it later.
Like other players, they turned their attention to two new items.
Let's not talk about the deep-sea blind boxes; they're probably consumables or something similar after a version update.
But why are the water cups so expensive?
One standard block is worth 700 gold coins!
They earned their gold coins bit by bit. Running errands for NPCs only earns them two or three hundred a day, so this is the equivalent of two or three days' worth of errands.
Players admit the logo on the cup is cool, but they can't just waste coins like that!
Gold coins are used to run dungeons and earn contribution points; only a fool would buy them!
At least that's what most players thought. However, a group of NPCs that suddenly rushed out from the corner ruined their spending habits.
The Lingli tribe students have short legs, but they are the fastest runners.
He waved his credit card, jumping and skipping, his voice a little hoarse: "Water, I want water!"
The scene seemed familiar, except that the protagonist had changed from the creation machine to the divine monument.
One player kindly reminded them: "That's a cup, not water... If you want to drink water, I have a bottle of iced mint milk here..."
The Spirit Chestnut Clan's ham sausage wasn't ungrateful, but he was in such a hurry that he didn't pause for a moment, nimbly squeezing through the gap below, shouting as he ran:
"Try opening it yourself and you'll see!"
thump.
He swerved suddenly, using the steps beside him as cover.
Dragon Leap!
Click on the projector, swipe your card in the corner, and the whole operation is completed in one go.
"Here is the item you requested. I have transported it from the Creation Machine via the Magic Sea."
During the first transaction, Fang Qi emphasized one point, foreshadowing something.
This means that blind boxes and water bottles are all created by the Creator and have nothing to do with the Divine Stele.
The Spirit Chestnut Clan member named "700" was focused solely on quenching his thirst and failed to grasp the implied meaning. He grabbed his cup and hurriedly left.
There are water tanks in the dormitory, but once the water is released, it is blown away instantly, and there is no time to react!
With this cup, I should be able to drink the water...
700 licked his lips. He was so busy yesterday that he didn't have time to drink water. Counting the time, it had been almost 24 hours. Who could stand this!
What he didn't notice was that, by sheer coincidence, the player opened the iced mint milk.
At this moment, the water-repelling pile, the milk, and 700 are in a straight line.
puff.
Milk sprayed all over me, and cleaning was the next priority.
The 700 took off instantly, and the cup flew high into the air as well.
"My cup!" he cried out.
"No way, is it this hard to even get a drink of water?" The players finally understood.
It's all the fault of the game designers; the NPCs' living conditions are just too terrible!
