Chapter 36 is actually a chain farming task!
"How do you know she is an important NPC who manages the vegetable garden?"
"Because she was carrying a hoe."
"But she didn't dig the ground."
"Do you really expect NPCs to farm in the game?"
"So you've been staring at it?"
"I was wondering if this game would have a farming feature!"
"Oh!"
"Oh? I'm studying the game system. What are you studying?"
"I'm researching what to eat later."
Romantic Eater and Ace Amour stood outside the vegetable garden and had a brief discussion about the conversation that had just taken place.
The two can be considered old friends. As two of the three unlucky guys who got "lost" as soon as they entered the game and were then caught and sacrificed, their luck was pretty good. At least they were arranged to a relatively famous novice village.
Among the three thousand beta testers, Star Dragon Sentry ranks in the top five in terms of available equipment resources, but if calculated based on long-term development, it may be at the bottom, with a total of 5 soldiers, which is more pitiful than many small settlements. Other territories cannot be without NPC heroes above level 9 like Lord Lind, so Star Dragon Sentry is not very competitive.
It is only regarded as a special novice village that is most suitable for early development and can get the best equipment.
The two were considered casual players, the type that Lind least wanted.
Although it is said that without ambition, one will not be attracted by other forces, and casual players are the most loyal type, but lack of ambition also means that one will not be involuted and will not work hard to bring more benefits to Lind.
It's too much if you don't spend money on the game but you don't play it hard either.
Ace Aimu walked towards the girl who was carrying a hoe in front of the vegetable garden.
If he were asked to rank his favorite games, they would probably be Summer Rhapsody, Winter Rhapsody, Country Rhapsody, and Stardew Valley. Yes, he is a player who loves farming and management games.
So when he saw the other party suspected of farming, he immediately went over.
"Hello, how can I help you?"
The girl was startled by the sudden call.
She kept in mind the task given by the lord.
If you want to survive in Star Dragon Outpost, you must complete your work and be careful in what you say and do.
Her job is to look after the vegetable garden.
Although the lord knew that potatoes could not mature, and that sprouted potatoes would only sprout and sprout again and again and eventually rot, that was her job. Especially after a large group of undead suddenly appeared today, her task became to stay here from waking up in the day to night, except for eating, drinking, defecating and urinating.
The main content of her job is to command the undead to do something when they come to chat with her, and the lord also gave her a lot of Rand gold coins.
A few years ago, she would have regarded this heavy thing as a treasure, and one piece could buy her entire family, but now she just felt it was very heavy, and it was very cold and uncomfortable to hold in her hand in winter.
"..."
Ace stared at the other person lovingly for several times. She was an ordinary-looking girl, with a pale and thin face. Her lips moved slightly but she didn't dare to speak.
What a pitiful girl.
After confirming that he had arrived at the Star Dragon Outpost, Ace Aimu immediately watched all the relevant videos, especially the battle between Zui Ai Baisi and others and the wanderer camp, which was also watched by many people at the first time. Ace Aimu knew that this girl should be one of the women and children rescued by Zui Ai Baisi and others.
"I..." The girl pinched her clothes with her fingers. She knew how powerful the undead were.
Although she did not witness the battle last night with her own eyes, she heard the details from several soldiers. Of course, the lord was the bravest, but those undead who kept coming back to life were even more terrifying.
"Are you farming?" Ace Aimu squatted down and felt that he should take the initiative to talk: "What are you farming?"
"Potatoes," the girl answered with difficulty.
He added in his mind: Although it will never be possible to grow them. "I remember that food is very scarce in Star Dragon Outpost." Although Ace Aimu was not keen on killing and arson, it did not mean that he did not understand the situation, especially the high price of 10 Rand gold coins for 2 pounds of food offered by Lind, which was impressive.
"The whole world is short of food." The girl realized that the two undeads had no hostility, and her attitude finally relaxed, just like a cat with its fur standing on end. "But this land has been abandoned by magic and cursed by disaster. It is no longer possible to grow food."
"Can I take a look?" Ace Aimu took action directly.
The player doesn't care what the NPC thinks at all. He asked this question subconsciously, subconsciously treating the other party as a living person.
After asking this question, Ace Aimu was stunned for a moment.
I sighed in my heart: "This game is too real."
Whether it was his expression, atmosphere, or actions, if he didn't know that he could quit the game, he would really think that he had traveled to a magical doomsday world.
Suddenly I felt something interesting. If there really was a time traveler who came directly to this kind of world, how pitiful that would be, haha.
After shaking off the random thoughts in his mind, Ace Aimu dug up the loose soil and saw the "potatoes".
Shriveled potato chunks that sprouted.
In a state of growth and death.
"Can't grow it?" Ace Aimu asked while pinching a potato piece. Coincidentally, he was a student at an agricultural university.
"Yeah," the girl nodded, repeating what she had heard from somewhere: "The land has been cursed by disaster."
Ace Aimu didn't take it seriously, and the repetitive lines showed that the NPC's intelligence level was not high.
"That's not right. What will you eat if you can't grow food?" He suddenly became interested in the logic of this game. The land that cannot grow food and the people who must eat food, one of them must have a bug.
"There are mutated food" the girl looked at Ace in a strange way, not understanding why he didn't even have common sense.
"Ahem!" Ace Aimu choked, and at the same time grasped the key point in his heart: "Mutated plants, why don't you grow mutant crops, but this?"
He shook the limp sprouting potatoes in his hand.
"Mutated food only grows around the shadow of disaster, and that kind of thing is difficult to digest. If you eat too much, your body will mutate." The girl said, and added in her heart: Even if it is mutated food, you can't eat it whenever you want.
"Debuff food." Ace nodded in understanding, indicating that he understood.
I guess if I eat too much I'll grow several nais, or even two heads?
So these people look normal, is it because they eat normal food so they are fine, or is it that they can't even eat enough mutated food so they have no chance to mutate?
He looked back and saw that the romantic eater was eager to try: "Hey, romantic eater, you don't want to try it, do you?"
"No!" The romantic glutton shook his head: "I know, at least it has to be cooked."
"You better know!"
"So, normal food cannot grow in the fields, and mutant seeds must be planted in the shaded area." Ace Aimu's eyebrows suddenly twitched: "Hey, didn't De Ge'er mention the scavenger's nest before?"
He seemed to have found a natural breeding ground.
"Dergo didn't say we can't turn in debuff food!"
Ace's eyes of admiration grew brighter and brighter. He looked at the girl and asked, "Where can I find those mutant seeds?"
"I don't know, you may want to ask someone else," the girl shook her head decisively.
Mutations, disasters...Now that she has moved into Star Dragon Outpost, she hopes to be as far away from those things as possible.
"I know, this is a chain mission."
He stood up and looked at the romantic glutton: "Let's go and investigate the information of the mutant seeds!"
