Chapter 1 I am the one who runs the game
Lü Xingshi is a time traveler, and the way he travels through time may be a little bit wrong.
When normal people travel through time, they usually travel through time as humans or other living things, and then they bring a cheat code like a system.
But he is not like that. After he traveled through time, he did have a cheat code, which was a farming management game that didn't even have a name. More importantly, this game theoretically cannot be considered his cheat code, but he himself is this farming management game.
So Lü Xingshi initially suspected that he might have been split when he traveled through time.
And his farming management game is very likely an unfinished semi-finished product, and he can directly change his underlying code.
That is, in common parlance, he can open the console and make various changes to this farming management game, but there are two small problems.
The first is that he can't understand the game code, so there were a lot of problems in the initial modification process, such as a lot of malicious bugs such as fire in the sky and grass growing in the clouds. Fortunately, he modified them back as soon as possible.
Then, every time he modified, he would check the code before modifying it, which was much more cautious.
For example, when fertilizing, he can compare the variables of the game code when the crops grow, or find the data changes after the livestock get sick and recover. In this way, he can know the game code of the crops' growth and the data of the livestock's disease, and he can change it directly.
In this way, the crops can mature instantly, the livestock skip the treatment stage, and so on.
However, this involves the second problem, that is, the problem of energy consumption. Every modification will generate consumption.
As a farming management game, it is definitely impossible to bypass the stage of selling. Selling crop products, livestock and by-products will get a currency called gold coins, and this gold coin seems to be his food.
Yes, it is his food.
His existence seems to need the maintenance of gold coins, about 100 gold coins a day, which will be reduced by itself. At the beginning, he found that the gold coins were reduced by themselves, which was really shocked. Later, after observing for three or five days, he summarized the rules.
This is also one of the proofs that he is this management game rather than a player.
Secondly, if the game data is modified, gold coins will also be consumed. The amount of consumption depends on the importance and quantity of the code modified by Lu Xingshi.
There is no need to worry about the problem of gold coins. As long as the business is carried out normally, there will be no shortage of gold coins. Just like now, he not only has nine-digit gold coins, but also a large number of vegetables, fruits, chickens, ducks, fish, meat and other related things that he is too lazy to look at.
Therefore, this has led to some troubles. For example, he ripened a crop in an instant, but after selling it, he calculated that he did not make any profit at all, and sometimes he might even lose money. Therefore, he exchanged time for gold coins more. Unless there are special circumstances, it is not very cost-effective to make modifications.
This is to ensure his own survival, for fear that he will not have enough food.
As for modifying gold coins, he has also tried it. It takes about two gold coins to modify one gold coin. The more modifications, the more losses.
Lu Xingshi actually has a lot of doubts, such as how these energy sources are born. There is a strange sense of déjà vu that energy is not conserved. However, he has explored for so many years, but he has not figured it out, and finally can only put it aside temporarily.
As for how long he has been in this farming management game, he is not sure, because this game is a semi-finished product and many things are missing.
For example, it is related to the concept of time, and many things seem to be a sticker. He also dug out a lot of things from his own code, such as nuclear power plant design drawings, combat modules, monsters, etc., but they were all empty shells and completely unusable, just a name.
However, it was not that nothing was dug out. He also dug out iron pickaxes and ore, which increased his income.
"Let's see how much work my game people have done today." Lu Xingshi floated out.
Yes, it was floating. He looked like a Q-version mini ghost as a whole. This was not his body. At the beginning, his perspective was still fixed and looked down. Until a little bit of exploration, he had a completely virtual body.
It was probably equivalent to controlling an invisible character.
When floating out, I saw a large number of game people working, such as feeding chickens and ducks, weeding and fertilizing farmland, and spreading fish food in fish ponds.
These game people should be similar to the game characters used by players, and Lu Xingshi can directly integrate himself into these game people and obtain the abilities of game people.
Although Lu Xingshi called the game figures small, they are not small in fact. They are also the size of normal people. It's just that Lu Xingshi looked down from too high before, so he felt small.
The game figures have four abilities, namely planting, breeding, gathering, and making, and they all have levels.
If there is no Lu Xingshi's control, then these game figures will work on their own, but there are also limitations. For example, they will not sell or buy items by themselves, and Lu Xingshi needs to buy them. They also don't know how to plan. If there are no buildings such as chicken coops and farmlands, they will not move.
So the entire upstream and downstream industries are all explored and pitfalls by him little by little, and finally completed this layout with the greatest efficiency.
In fact, at the beginning, there was only one game character, and the extra ones were all made by Lu Xingshi with gold coins. It takes 10,000 gold coins to convert one game character.
Now it is not converted because it is already overcrowded. It is not appropriate to have more, because the interactive objects have volume, which will cause collisions and crowding. Too many will cause unsmooth movement.
"Not bad, another beautiful day." Lu Xingshi likes to watch this scene. He doesn't really like to talk to himself, but he speaks when necessary to ensure his language ability.
Then he turned back and opened the game panel. There were a lot of gold coins, resources, etc. on this panel, and then he pulled it to the bottom, where there was a progress bar.
[DLC: Download progress 99%]
DLC refers to the subsequent downloadable content of the game, such as additional content such as expansion packs.
This thing has been available for a long time. It takes one million gold coins to buy it. Lu Xingshi has saved up for a long time.
However, he didn't expect that the really long process was not to save up one million gold coins to buy it, but the downloading process. Because there was no day and night cycle and time system, Lu Xingshi didn't know how long the download took.
Anyway, the progress bar has been stuck at 99% for a long time, so he just checked it as usual.
When he was about to close it, the progress bar reached 100%.
