The Rise of Otaku
chapter-69

Bubu the Squirrel: Flying bird knight, can train flying bird mount; the secondary professions: bartender and intelligence officer.

Well, it could become a very important member of the pub, and it was also able to train another type of animal. Diandian would have companions soon.

Bubu’s face was filled with questions marks. Originally, it was sitting on the back of a Dragon Hawk flying in the sky earlier. However, it did not expect that it, who was a veteran flying rider, would fall off its mount and land in this unknown place without hitting by any storms. And in here, there was actually someone it knew.

“Jack!? Since you went to fight the demon dragon, we did not receive any news about you. Everyone was saying that you have been eaten by the demon dragon as a snack. But it doesn’t sound right whenever I think about it. Because you are so small that there isn’t any meat on your body. Why would the demon dragon wants to eat you! Hahaha!”

The little squirrel looked very cute, but it had a very sharp tongue. Moreover, it seemed like it and Jack knew each other. Jack’s face was very gloomy. Why it had to be this guy who it did not like the most. It seemed like there would not be any peaceful time in the pub, in the future.

And what happened next was exactly like Zhou Yu expected. Bubu said that to help its friend, it was willing to stay. But Jack’s face was filled with ‘you can go away’ expression. So probably only Bubu thought that they were friends.

After settling down Bubu, Zhou Yu continued to wait for the next lucky incident.

Fearing that he would be hit by something from the sky again, Zhou Yu deliberately found a recliner to lie down. As long as there was an abnormality in the sky, he would runway to dodge it. However, the so-called lucky incident was hard to predict. This time it was actually a surprise attack from behind. A hedgehog got out of the ground and stabbed his butt directly from behind.

Rubin the Hedgehog: a portal operator, can build and maintain portals. The level of the portal determines the level of the adventurers, and the higher level the portal is, the more expensive the material is.

Ok, it was all related to the adventurer’s town. Although it was not complete, with these few people, an early-stage adventure’s town could be finally open.

‘But... Ouch... dammit, my butt still hurts.’

Rubin the Hedgehog looked like a very gloomy creature. When it saw other people were looking at it, after it came out from the ground, it did not even talk to other people. It just directly found a place to lie down and sunbathe. However, It seemed like it would also stay. Looking at the status of the hedgehog, it really became the villager of Mini Luhua Village. And so far, it was the only one that did not require Zhou Yu to any sort of persuasions.

After recruiting two villagers, there were no more other characters. It seemed like the effect of the magical lucky one had finished. It usually took a long time to find a new villager. But today, there were two of them. The special effect of this profession was indeed extremely awesome. Therefore, without saying anything, Zhou Yu activated the same profession again.

However, his lucks was exhausted. The second activation only brought him a stray cat merchant named Hank. It sells all kinds of random equipment and items. The remaining two lucky incidents were just a strange Quest Scroll, and a seed that only had a question mark on it but no other descriptions.

Although the omnipotent farmer could plant it, Zhou Yu did not know what kind of seed it was. So he just kept it aside first. What if something went wrong, it would be too late to save it.

Mini Luhua Village had three more residents, and the skill – Life is a drama, left with the omnipotent farmer 1 time, the strongest talker 2 times, and the genius beast Hunter 2 times.

........................

The Spring Festival was coming, and the village was filled with the festival atmosphere. But Zhou Yu’s life had hardly changed. Originally, his parents were worried about when he would get a girlfriend, but since Zhou Yu decided to invest a million in a rural amusement park in Luhua Village, they stopped mentioning this. Perhaps it was because they thought that their son finally decided to do something, they did not want him to be distracted by the marriage problem, lest he would feel annoyed and stop coming out of the house again.

However, what they did not know, was that the rural amusement park was just a lie. The real reason was that Zhou Yu felt that his yard was too small, and he wanted to find a bigger place to play his mini Luhua village simulation game.

The first project of the amusement park was the water park. The wave machine was indispensable. The chubby Third Dragon Prince was looking forward to seeing the “sea” again every day. After the completion of all the formalities, the construction would begin. And it would be completed before the summer season. By that time, he would be able to enjoy the ‘seaside’ without leaving home.

The design of the water park was produced by the carpenter beaver and the stonemason monkey, while the old dragon king and the third dragon prince also actively joined the design team. They were sea creatures and naturally had the right to make comments about where they would live in the future.

The ACG World also celebrated the New Year, but the New Year in Mini Luhua Village was very cold and cheerless. Even the New Year’s Eve’s meal was given by Zhou Yu secretly. Those winter vegetables were all taken away by Zhou Yu’s mother. After midnight, everyone gathered together secretly made a hot pot with the vegetables that Zhou Yu had hidden from his mother. They didn’t even have the meat. It was truly very sad.

However, the old dragon king and the carpenter beaver were quite happy. Because in this year’s New Year’s dinner, there were many villagers. People should always look forward to the future. One day, there will be plenty of food and clothing, and people will thrive.

Next year, Zhou Yu would work harder to get out of the status of the newbie village as soon as possible.

Due to the construction of a rural amusement park, plus the need to prepare funds for the reconstruction of the old house, Zhou Yu decided to release a new offline game to gather some money first.

There were actually a lot of games. When Zhou Yu was free, he would make a game for yourself to have fun, but he would not upload it to the internet. After all, it would be hard to explain the development speed. Only when he needed some money, would he take out some game that he was slightly satisfied to gather some money.

After looking over and over in the gaming folder, he finally found a game that he quite liked.

“Alive”.

This was a survival game. The background of the game was very clear: to survive in a zombie-filled city. There was no mainline plot, only countless choices. Staying in a group or just staying alone was entirely up to the player to decide. They could choose to ignore other people, be a hero saving other people, or be a bad guy.

It was an open world, sandbox game. Although the ultimate goal was to find the source of the zombie outbreak, the player could also play slowly, or however they liked it.

The biggest highlight of this game was the difficulty. The degree of immersiveness was super high, and it did not have additional inventory space like other games did. Everything had its weight, and the heavier the loads were the slower the player would be. Once the load exceeded the amount that one could carry, the player would not be able to move.

This meant that players could not carry unlimited weapons. They could only rely on limited ammunition and weapons to defend themselves. Timely supplementation of food and ammunition was the key to survival. Using melee weapons also did not grant players the power to kill many zombies, which was completely different from other games. After being surrounded by a group of zombies, no matter how skillful the player was, the player would be dead for sure. As long as the player was slightly injured, it would become a zombie as well. And melee weapons would break down if they hit something hard, or after they were used for a long time.

A variety of hell modes settings made the difficulty of this game rise to the point that people would question if the developer of this game just made this game to torture players. Zhou Yu had wasted countless brain cells for this game, and he finally managed to learn the tricks of playing this game.

After being tortured by this game for several weeks. It resulted in him even checking if the house he lived in the real-life was able to survive in the zombie apocalypse or not.

Now that he had a chance, it was time to upload this game and torture other people.
