Chapter 55: New Insights_1
When Fang Cheng had finished his meditation and, filled with confidence, returned to his own room and entered Wang’s live streaming room, he was surprised to find that the yers had switched to a different way of ying.
Several hosts who were familiar with Wang began to live stream the game scenes and shared the game download link, inviting new yers to join the battle.
A simple map was drawn up, and once in the game, yers could determine their location based on the surrounding terrain, and then get in touch with other locals, after which they could choose different tasks to perform.
Of course, it’s alright not to join any organization, but then you<sup>1</sup>11 miss out on something really cool.
Because, we are getting ready to fight UFOs.
With stones!
Seeing the yers seriously preparing to attack the UFOs, Fang Cheng’s emotions fluctuated a bit.
What the heck are you guys doing?
What on earth happened during the time I was contemting?
Confused, he asked his question, and Fang Cheng saw someoney out the causes and effects before heading to the yers’ strategy site to learn about the “UFO incident.”
After reading it, Fang Cheng finally understood what the silver shuttle was, and then he crossed the ck hole to the Spirit Grass.
Compared with before his seclusion, this ce hadpletely changed.
The number of yers on the had grown to thirty thousand, and under themand of various leaders, they began to build roads, erect tforms, and construct artillery positions in preparation for a fierce battle with the UFOs.
Because Fang Cheng initially intended only for yers to farm, he hadn’t set up aplicated Refinement system, simply introducing some tool manufacturing systems.
However, the Spirit Grass here contained strong sticity, which the yers fully exploited to start making various simple weapons.
After a quick assessment, Fang Cheng realized the level of weaponry here had basically developed to the early stages of firearms. The emergence of ck powder meant their weapons could reach hundreds of meters into the sky, perfect for hitting the flying shuttles.
The yers even found a way to grow parts for matchlock guns using Spirit Grass, although it was a pity that these guns were single-use and would be scrapped after a few uses due to high temperatures.
But with the help of the Time Stone, they could cultivate matchlock guns inrge quantities and prepare to fight against the shuttles.
Concealing his presence, Fang Cheng watched these bustling yers, feeling their emotions, and found they were even more excited than before.
A in farming game had been turned into a war game by them, and they were even happier about it.
Looking at the busy yers below helplessly, Fang Cheng thought the concept of video games was indeed mysterious.
A minor random element couldpletely transform the way a game was yed, and different themes could blend to produce an effect where the whole was greater than the sum of its parts.
After watching them for a while, Fang Cheng finally made a decision.
Blend in with them and understand their thoughts.
First, he tagged the departing shuttle, then Fang Cheng prepared to control a game character to join the yers and y with them.
This process was simr to “joining the mundane” in cultivation, integrating oneself as a character to attempt to understand why they found this process fun.
So, Fang Cheng simply created a character, turned on Wang Say Games’ live stream, and entered the game, approaching a nearby yer’s stronghold.
As soon as he arrived, a yer ran over and threw a set of clothes grown from Spirit Grass in front of Fang Cheng.
Afterwards, he threw down several signs, each clumsily inscribed with the names of various hosts.
Understanding the intention, Fang Cheng stood in front of the sign that read “Wang Say Games,” indicating he was in Wang’s live room.
Signaling Fang Cheng to put on the clothes, someone immediately said in the live room, “Is the newyer who just arrived here? ‘nt Grass’ hasn’t got a chat system, so wemunicate here. Since the game has no naming system, we use the style of clothing to distinguish each other. From now on, you’re Red Rabbit Beach Shorts, and I’m your guide, please call me ck Silk Bikini.”
Fang Cheng nced at his game character wearing red rabbit beach shorts and was relieved that at least he looked like a normal person.
Having made contact with Fang Cheng, ck Silk Bikini began a private chat with him.
“We are currently fighting to defend our wealth, a rigorous process because our technological gap is just too vast. However, we can resurrect infinitely, which is our greatest weapon.”
Fang Cheng inwardly noted that it wasn’t infinite resurrection, but rather using his own mana to reestablish a clone.
ck Silk Bikini: [First, what are you good at?]
Fang Cheng: [I’m quite good at nting Spirit Grass.]
ck Silk Bikini: [Okay, go to this website first, take note of the ntation methods for the corresponding Water Pistons parts, and thene back to me.]
After opening the website, Fang Cheng became interested upon reading the introduction about the Water Pistons.
It had to be said, this group of yers did have some capabilities.
The various nting methods hidden within the Spirit Grass, they had actually managed to analyze sixty percent of them.
After looking at the other nting methods, Fang Cheng reflected for a moment, then returned to the live stream and told ck Silk Bikini: [I’ve got it, I took note.]
ck Silk Bikini: […It’s only been ten minutes! yers don’t lie to yers, you can’t be fooling me.]
[Not at all.]
[Then how much do you know about the four nting methods of the Water Pistons?]
[Actually, there are six. 1’11 tell you about the ones I’ve recorded.]
After reading the message sent by Fang Cheng, ck Silk Bikini was sincerely impressed.
ck Silk Bikini entrusted a piece ofnd to Fang Cheng and introduced a few yers to him, then continued to take new yers with her.
With the Time Stone provided by someone, and a continuous supply of water in the channels, Fang Cheng only needed to nt the Water Pistons following certain methods, and the repetitive work made him particrly happy.
Without using spells or Divine Skills, but purely nting Spirit Grass, this monotonous activity gave Fang Cheng great pleasure.
Compared to the joy Fang Cheng found in it, the other yers seemed somewhat listless.
Numbly following the requirements to nt the Spirit Grass, they sometimes stared off into the distance.
Following their gaze, Fang Cheng saw a massive warehouse there.
The warehouse was buried underground, withyers of bunkers on the surface. The yers’ homemade cannons and catapults were ced here, awaiting the approach of the shuttles.
Arge volume of supplies was transported into the warehouse, where they were piled high in a strategic method to make this ce a supply concentration point, meant to lure the shuttles and catch them off guard.
After staring at the site for a while, a yer said in their private group chat: [I really want to go there and prepare for battle.]
Another yer echoed: [Me too.]
[Exactly, it feels like preparing for battle would be interesting.]
Seeing the yers’ments, Fang Cheng asked with curiosity: [Isn’t farming fun?]
[It’s fun, but…]
[You can always farm, but encounters with UFOs are rare. Compared to that, these kinds of unexpected events are more interesting.]
[Plus, fighting UFOs seems like an advanced form of farming, essentially farming is still serving the purpose of preparing for UFO battles.]
[That’s right!]
[Exactly my point!]
Looking at the feedback from the yers, Fang Cheng was pensive.
An insight emerged in his mind, making him feel as though he had understood something.
To the yers, it seemed, warfare held more allure than peace.
