Chapter 25: The Harvest
Compared with the busyness and liveliness of the other two sides, Tang Dynasty chestnuts and princess Mengyiyi were very quiet and embarrassed, and walked silently in one direction.
“…… I'm so sorry to scare you just now. Princess Mengyi broke the silence first, and if she didn't look at the overreaction just now, she was a girl with a gentle and sweet voice, and her personality should be pretty good.
"It's okay, it's okay, I scared you first." Tang Dynasty chestnut waved her hand again and again, when she followed the group of forum members who were not in shape, she could naturally gag, but in the face of the princess Mengyi, she seemed extremely restrained and careful.
Just now I explained to everyone that he is a friend and sister, and he doesn't usually play games, and even the account was registered by him, and this time it was to help him make up the number of people in the internal test.
It can't be said that she can't take care of it, when Tang Dynasty Chestnut faced Princess Mengyi, she inexplicably had a sense of distance, she herself was just an ordinary female college student in reality, and Princess Mengyiyi was obviously the kind of rich lady, and she was an upper-class figure that Tang Dynasty Chestnut couldn't get in touch with in reality.
may be facing a girl with a pure and cheerful voice, even with the terrible Zerg body, the princess Mengyi slowly let go, and looked at the surrounding scenery with novelty.
"It's so real here, the wind is blowing, the leaves are shaking, and the smell of grass leaves."
Princess Mengyi stood in place, raised her hand to feel the breeze blowing from her body, gently touched the swaying grass next to her, and smelled the smell of the forest in the air.
But it's a pity that the girl is indeed a girl, and the body that does all this is a huge bug that is quite ugly and creature, which only adds a pink horror atmosphere to the picture.
"Uh, yes." Tang Dynasty chestnut nodded approvingly.
"Sorry, I haven't played much of the game, are all games like this?" Princess Mengyi turned around and looked at Tang Dynasty chestnuts with a little embarrassment.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Tang Dynasty chestnuts actually saw a girl's shy and smiling appearance from this action, and was stunned for a moment before quickly answering.
"No, no, this game is a holographic game, it's a new game, it's different from the previous online mobile game, and it's the first time I've played it."
"Eh, do you know what this game is about?" Princess Mengyi asked curiously.
I've been watching the post since the beginning of the post.,Got the place of active players in the internal beta.,This question can be regarded as asking the point.,Tang Dynasty chestnut's eyes lit up.,There is no sense of alienation before.,Two steps quickly walked to the side of the princess Mengyi.。
"Hehe, you're asking the right person, but I've been paying attention to the production team since they posted on the forum."
Princess Mengyi leaned sideways and listened carefully.
"Ahem, about a hundred years ago, the interstellar Terran and the Zerg had a great battle, and the Zerg Empress was attacked by the Terran's plot and was seriously injured, resulting in the Zerg being defeated in this final battle, and being driven by the Terran to a very remote galaxy in the universe, the injured Zerg Empress used the genes of various powerful creatures she had collected over the years to hatch ten offspring, that is, ten Zerg queens, in order to take revenge on the human race."
"She put ten Zerg queens on different planets, let them develop separately, and then fight each other to separate the most powerful one of them and become the new Zerg Empress."
"We entered the game as an ordinary Zerg, belonging to the weakest of the ten Zerg Queens, and we need to complete tasks and other ways in exchange for different game characters to become stronger and help our Zerg Queen achieve the final victory."
Tang Dynasty chestnuts are described in as simple language as possible, so that the princess Mengyi, who has not played the game, can understand.
"Hmm......" Princess Mengyi thought for a while and tilted her head slightly.
"What does interstellar mean?"
It is an adjective of the times, for example, ancient refers to the past in history, modern refers to the era in which we live, and interstellar refers to the future, which is a kind of imagination for the future in artistic creation. Suppose that human beings go out of the earth, conquer the solar system, and live in the stars. ”
"What is a Zerg?"
"There are so many planets and galaxies in the universe, it must not be just human life, right, the Zerg is one of them, they have a very powerful evolutionary ability, they can integrate the genes of other creatures into themselves, and evolve more powerful organs or abilities to deal with various environments or dangers. The characteristic of the Zerg is that they can eat all kinds of things, basically the planet with the Zerg will be eaten empty in the end, and then the Zerg will go to find the next planet, if you eat it unlimitedly, the Zerg can finally eat the entire universe empty. ”
"Shouldn't this be the villain?"
"Huh...... yes, but that's how the game is set. ”
"What about the Zerg Queen?"
"Do you mean our Majesty? Hey, hey, that's a big beauty! In the setting, she was hatched by the Zerg Empress by fusing human genes with the Zerg, so she has half a human body and a way of thinking close to humans, but she is also the weakest of the ten Zerg Queens. ”
"Why?" Princess Mengyi showed a puzzled look directly.
Tang Dynasty chestnut thought about it seriously before answering, "Because humans and the Zerg are mutually exclusive in nature. ”
"Every human being has different thoughts, countless differences create countless possibilities, and it is precisely because of this collision of ideas that human beings can exude their due brilliance and eventually become strong."
"But the Zerg is not, there is no such thing as thinking for a single individual, the only one who can think is the Zerg Empress, her consciousness connects each Zerg, and her thoughts are the thoughts of the entire Zerg."
Tang Dynasty Chestnut spread his hands, "In this case, whether it is a human or a Zerg, there is actually no difference, but those Zerg queens with combat genes are more popular, because their strength is stronger." ”
Princess Mengyi nodded, thinking about this passage, Tang Chao Lizi smiled embarrassedly, "Hehe, that paragraph just now was posted by someone I saw on the forum before, I think it makes sense." ”
Princess Mengyi snorted and laughed, and nodded, "Well, it makes sense." ”
"Look at that!" Although chatting, Tang Dynasty chestnuts did not forget the task of the two of them, and saw a bunch of red fruits in the bushes next to him, and hurriedly spoke.
"What is this?" Princess Mengyi's eyes were full of curiosity, and she tentatively poked one of the fruits with her sharp forefeet, about the size of a baby's fist, and the red fruit had a delicate skin, and it was directly poked out, and the red juice dripped down, and a rich fruity fragrance came out.
The two glanced at each other, and Tang Dynasty chestnut hesitated to speak, "It's so fragrant...... Can you eat this fruit? ”
"Why don't you try?" Princess Mengyi suggested, this aroma is inexplicably appetizing.
Looking at each other again, they all picked one tacitly, put it in their mouths with two forefeet, and the sharp fine teeth bit through the skin, chewed the flesh, and the extreme sweetness was followed by a rich bitterness.
"Phew!" Tang Dynasty chestnuts spit out on the spot, and Princess Mengyi covered her mouth with a distorted expression, maintaining her last dignified.
After a long time, Tang Dynasty chestnuts looked at the sky with blank eyes, "I finally know why no animal eats such a fragrant fruit." ”
"Uh-huh." Princess Mengyi closed her eyes tightly and nodded vigorously in agreement.
"Let's go, let's take some back." Anger starts from the heart, evil is born to the guts, Tang Dynasty chestnuts suddenly got up, and deeply felt that it was wrong to only suffer by themselves, they were all internal beta players, and they should have difficulties and enjoy difficulties.
"Huh?" Princess Mengyi was startled, thought for two seconds, didn't object, acquiesced, picked up the huge leaves next to her, and wrapped the red fruits picked from the chestnuts of the Tang Dynasty.
Along the way, the strangeness at the beginning had dissipated, and the two girls glanced at each other and laughed tacitly, "Let's go, let's find something else." Tang Dynasty chestnut waved his hand and continued his journey to explore the forest.
Compared with the group of players next to them who wanted to meet their prey but couldn't touch them, Tang Dynasty chestnuts and princess Mengyiyi successively saw several animals introduced on the official website such as boxing rabbits, big-eyed snakes, snake catchers, and rats, but only to see, after getting close to a certain distance, this group of animals ran away very vigilantly, not daring to approach these two girls who were weak from head to toe.
Of course, I also found several plants that looked edible, such as an arm-sized umbrella-shaped green mushroom, and the Tang Dynasty chestnuts thought that this color was very healthy and maybe they could be eaten, so they picked a little and planned to go back to find someone to try it.
For example, a purple fruit like a cucumber more than a meter long, when they saw it, there was a deer-shaped creature eating, so Tang Dynasty chestnuts They could find out that this thing was a plant fruit, there was a lesson from the past just now, Tang Dynasty chestnuts and princess Mengyi did not try it again, and they were going to go back to find a lucky player to do this kind of thing.
Another example is the nut fruit similar to the pine cone, although the Kahur tree occupies the majority of the Yegu Forest, and the tall body of the tree blocks most of the sunlight, making it impossible for other trees to grow, but there are still many kinds of trees that can compete with one of them, such as the Rocca gold tree, which is a snake catcher and rat.
Snake catchers are squirrels on earth, with a fluffy tail several times the size of their body, and fluffy dense fur, which looks like a large plush ball from a distance, but in fact they have quite a staggering amount of fat in their bodies, allowing them to withstand the impact and fall of great force - they live on the trunk of the Rocca Gold tree at a height of tens of meters, and often fall from the tree for various reasons.
In addition, they have sharp claws like pincers, which allow them to easily hold their prey in place, while their fluffy fur can mislead the prey's line of sight, making it difficult for the prey to attack their actual body parts...... Their main prey is the Curved Vine, a snake that mimics the camouflage of vines.
At the same time, the fruit of the Rocaquin tree is also a food source for snake catchers, who store a certain amount of Rocakin, the name of the nut fruit, to survive the hibernation period of the snake.
Tang Dynasty chestnuts and princess Mengyiyi, who couldn't get anything more, looked at the hiding place of the snake catcher rat that they had just discovered, so they could only mark it with pity, and then take half of the food that the snake catcher and rat had hidden and walked back.
