You said you would make games by yourself, but how did you become the richest man by doing nothing?

The person who had mocked Chu Xiong earlier was now struggling to whittle wood.

But he kept turning the wood into a pile of fragments, covering himself in sawdust from head to toe.

Suddenly, the rope on the wooden stake beside him snapped, and the wood fell towards him.

His female companion exclaimed in alarm!

Lu Yu, who was close by, directly reached out and supported the wood.

He curled his lip and laughed, "Buddy, can you handle this? It's obvious you're a宅男 (zhainan - otaku/stay-at-home guy) who doesn't usually do heavy work. If you can't keep going, you should quit early. Look, nature is teaching you a lesson!"

The boomerang hit him right back, and the boy's face turned red.

The key was that Lu Yu had just saved him. He couldn't retort, and he couldn't thank him, so he was just stuck there awkwardly.

Lu Yu didn't care. He was just doing things that made him happy from beginning to end. He didn't care what other people thought.

[Helping others brings joy, +3 Leisure Points]

[Speaking your mind brings clarity, +5 Leisure Points]

Lu Yu had just clapped his hands and returned to his cabin when the director announced the winners of the day through the loudspeaker.

Lu Yu's group undoubtedly got first place, earning 10 points.

The group of the boy he saved seemed to be having lingering fears. After thinking it over, they chose to withdraw.

The rest of the people slept on the spot in the camp tonight.

However, the organizers still distributed boxed lunches and thoughtfully provided high-capacity power banks.

After all, as modern people, they could give up anything, but not the internet.

Night fell.

Outside, the waves surged. Inside, everyone was playing on their computers.

The three members of the game development discussion group went online again.

Chu Xiong: "What do you guys think? Out of the blue, Brother Lu suddenly wants us to experience camping life. What's he up to?"

Liu Mengyuan: "I don't think it's that simple. If Dongming Island is the pearl he talks about, then without a doubt, he wants us to discover all the wonderful things here, not just the bathing beach."

Zhang Qiqi: "So, this is, his, hint."

Liu Mengyuan: "That's right. Now that he knows we're developing a new game and encourages us to persevere, then every step he takes should have a deeper meaning. But if he says it explicitly, we won't grow at all."

Chu Xiong: "Tears.jpg. Brother Lu is really racking his brains for us cobblers. Oh, sorry, Sister Liu, Qiqi, no offense meant. I'm the only cobbler."

After that, the three of them combined their experiences from today and, after discussion, changed the design plan:

When players first enter the game, they don't get a tourist island with complete facilities, but a deserted island.

At the start, there's only the most primitive tool kit. Players need to use axes, hammers, and pickaxes to carve out mountain walls, chop down trees, and build their own small wooden houses, and this is just the beginning of a long island life.

Moreover, there are many new areas on the island waiting to be unlocked. Only by using wood to build bridges or stairs can they enter.

After reading the design plan, Liu Mengyuan exclaimed:

"Starting from scratch is indeed much more interesting than directly playing a few limited projects on the island."

Chu Xiong agreed: "As expected of Brother Lu. Our skills are far behind his."

Zhang Qiqi: "I'll make some background music that fits the setting."

The three of them started holding their computers and developing rapidly.

...

The next day.

The directing team announced the next day's mission objective: to gather enough fresh water and food on the spot.

The other groups were using evaporation to obtain fresh water in place, but Lu Yu led everyone to search in the forest.

Lu Yu's idea was simple: since the hotel on the island has tap water, there must be a drinkable water source.

Sure enough, they found a small stream near the forest.

Lu Yu started carrying buckets back and forth to transport water.

Chu Xiong took a fishing net and started fishing by the sea.

Liu Mengyuan and Zhang Qiqi, each with their bare feet, picked up sea snails, sea shrimp, clams, etc. on the beach.

This kind of experience was really new to people who grew up in the city, and Lu Yu had new Leisure Points starting to arrive.

On the beach, Zhang Qiqi didn't run around like Liu Mengyuan, but stood in place, her eyes darting around.

Perhaps the energy accumulated by being taciturn was used for observation skills. She could locate various seafood on the beach from afar.

In less than half an hour, she had accumulated half a basket of seafood.

It was at this time that she caught sight of a pair of girls from another group following behind her.

After the game started, they didn't rush to act, but had been silently observing the actions of other groups.

Soon, Zhang Qiqi attracted their attention.

This taciturn girl seemed to have good observation skills, so they quietly followed.

In the next moment, Zhang Qiqi was preparing to pick up sand clams on the beach when the two girls directly took the lead and picked up the clams.

"..."

Zhang Qiqi was silent, her face neither happy nor sad, as still as an ancient well.

Her eyes moved, and then she silently turned around and slowly moved towards another seafood location.

Just then, the two girls once again took the lead and snatched the sea shrimp.

In a short while, the two girls' bamboo baskets had gained a small harvest.

"Oh, I'm sorry, sisters, we're lucky. We always saw it before you, oh hehehe..."

Even the laughter was fake and annoying.

The veins on Zhang Qiqi's forehead twitched slightly, but quickly returned to calm.

The two girls were secretly pleased.

This girl has short hair and wears men's T-shirts and shorts. At first glance, she doesn't know how to dress herself.

Moreover, she seems to be bad at words, introverted and shy. They usually like to bully such little sisters at school!

Things like using the other person's shampoo without permission, eating the other person's snacks without permission, and the other person had no complaints and silently endured it.

In the next moment, when they were preparing to strike again,

Liu Mengyuan suddenly appeared, picked up a sea snail, and put it in Zhang Qiqi's basket.

"Qiqi, let's pick together."

After that, the two divided the work, one discovering and the other picking. The two girls felt bored and left dejectedly.

Liu Mengyuan silently picked for a while, then suddenly opened her mouth and said:

"Qiqi, if someone makes you feel uncomfortable, you don't have to put up with it, understand?"

"Yeah, thank you."

Zhang Qiqi's eyes lit up, then returned to being as still as an ancient well.

In today's game results, Lu Yu's group of four scored the most points because they were the first to discover fresh water, and once again won first place.

...

In the evening, the development trio continued to add what they experienced today into the game.

Liu Mengyuan used her [Q version hand-painted] talent to add a Q version little girl as the protagonist to the game.

Various waterfalls and lakes, streams, were added to the island for players to freely explore.

And various aquatic products will be randomly placed on the beach.

Looking at the Q version little person in the game engine, shaking her little butt and swaying around the island, Liu Mengyuan was very happy.

At this time, the salty and humid sea breeze outside also blew in.

Goodness, this kind of immersive real-world game development experience is too good. Which other game company can do it?

It's just that Zhang Qiqi hasn't shown up, where is she?

...

The bright moon hangs high, and the sea waves are surging.

Zhang Qiqi, carrying a small bench, pushed open the door and came to the window of a small wooden house in the campsite.

Inside the house were the two annoying girls from the day.

They had already fallen asleep, and there was a steady breathing sound.

Zhang Qiqi took out her mobile phone, turned to her most proud original song, then aimed the speaker at the house, and gently pressed the play button.

Distorted notes, dancing a bizarre dance, slowly drilled into the house.

Zhang Qiqi sat on the small bench, her face still as still as an ancient well.
