Of course, Fangzheng didn't know what was on Asuna's mind. After returning to his room, he opened his inventory and took out all the needles and thread that he had bought while shopping and looked at them one by one.
Just like what Fangzheng and Asuna said, every game had its priorities. Take the NPCs for example, the main character was naturally the most meticulous, followed by the heroine, and then the other side characters. As for the NPCs or shop assistants that ran around the streets, they could just create a template and put on a random hairstyle or skin color.
It was the same for weapons and equipment. If you bought them on the street, of course, they would not have a cool particle effect. Otherwise, who would fight bosses for equipment? Therefore, in most games, the more important the item, the more detailed it would be, and the less important the item, the simpler it would be.
However, these items that were categorized as' miscellaneous items' weren't that simple to create. This wasn't just for the sake of authenticity. This could only mean one thing, and that was that the game designer must have hidden something that the players hadn't discovered.
As he thought about it, Fangzheng took the quill and gently caressed it. He felt the smooth and soft touch of the quill. Then, he spread out the scroll and dipped the quill in the ink he had bought. Then, he quickly began drawing.
For Fangzheng, drawing was not a difficult task. After all, before he became a game designer, he was also in charge of character design, setting, and equipment settings. Therefore, drawing was a piece of cake for him. Not long after, Fangzheng drew the blueprint of a longsword on the parchment. He then put down the quill and stared at the parchment in front of him.
"…"
There were no changes. That was normal.
Fangzheng did not say anything else. Instead, he took out another goatskin scroll and continued drawing. As a game designer and designer, he actually already had an idea about how to trigger hidden skills. The main problem now was to verify whether his idea was correct or not.
Time ticked by.
Fangzheng was still engrossed in crafting the blueprints. He was full of energy now, so it was fine even if he didn't eat for a day and a night. Moreover, in terms of level, Fangzheng's current level was enough to deal with the requirements of a battle. Even if his level had fallen behind because he hadn't been leveling for a few days, he would find some time to level up quickly. It wasn't important.
Instead, it was the learning condition of the hidden skill. If it was as Fangzheng thought, then it would cause a storm of changes in the virtual world. By that time, Fangzheng was 100% sure that he would be able to bring this group of people out of this virtual world safely.
Of course, that was if they didn't court death.
Fangzheng looked at the dark sky outside the window and picked up the quill again to continue his work.
This painting session lasted for two days.
"… Mr. Fangzheng hasn't come out yet?"
Gazing at the tightly shut door, Qingye asked uneasily. Facing her question, Lifa shook her head.
"I don't know … But Mr. Fangzheng seems to be studying something very important …."
"Isn't training supposed to start after the holiday today? Why hasn't Mr. Fangzheng come out yet …. "
Youji also began to complain. They had gathered early in the morning to start training, but to everyone's surprise, Fangzheng did not show up ….
"Looks like I won't be able to train today. I'll go back and sleep for a while …."
Seeing that Fangzheng did not show up, Jia Baili returned to her previous lazy look. She tried to sneak back to her room, but she was quickly caught by Asuna.
"Wait, Miss Jia Baili, where do you want to go? “
That guy isn't here. Let me go back to sleep! "
"No! Mr. Fangzheng said before that you'll be the first to participate in training after the holiday! If you don't complete the training … .your DKP will be deducted! "
"Noooo!!!"
Jia Baili immediately wailed when she heard Asuna's reply.
At the beginning of establishing the guild, Fangzheng borrowed some of the DKP system in domestic online games, and at the same time, he made some changes according to this world. Under his leadership, Darkmoon Sword was more like a company. Players earned DKP by contributing to the guild. DKP could be used to exchange for some equipment, and they could even make some requests that were not too excessive.
For example, some quests for production players could only be completed after fighting, but they were not good at fighting, so they needed the frontline clearers or combat teams to fight, which required a certain amount of DKP.
Jia Baili was just lazy, not stupid. Of course, she understood that if she did not do this, she would fall into a vicious cycle. If her DKP was deducted, it would not be so easy for her to get good equipment in the future. For a lazy otaku like Jia Baili, this was a fatal weakness ….
And now, Fangzheng was relying on this to tame Jia Baili. If you have the ability, you can quit the guild. If you don't quit, you'll have to work for me.
If you want to quit, that's fine, but you have to pay me back!
Fangzheng did not notice Jia Baili's wailing at all. In fact, he was already sitting at the table, drawing one blueprint after another.
This was a very boring job in itself, and Fangzheng had been drawing at the table for two days and two nights, using up almost hundreds of sheepskin scrolls. But he did not feel annoyed. On the contrary, Fangzheng even felt a sense of familiarity. Back when he was in primary school, he wrote the word "Zheng" on an intern teacher's flowery skirt out of boredom, and was punished by the class teacher to copy it a thousand times ….
Well, the intern teacher at that time was really pretty.
While reminiscing about the "heroic deeds" of the past, Fangzheng took a quill and drew another weapon blueprint on the sheepskin.
"Ding!"
But at that moment, a sound suddenly rang in Fangzheng's ears, and a line of system prompts appeared in front of Fangzheng.
[Hidden Skill activated: Cartography]
[Player received Hidden Skill: Cartography LV1]
Fangzheng was taken aback when he saw the notification in front of him. Only then did he snap out of his daze. When he looked at the blueprint in his hand again, he was astonished to discover that it had changed. It had changed from an [Ordinary Sheepskin Scroll] to a [Sharp Longsword Blueprint]!
Sure enough, it worked!
Looking at the scene in front of him, Fangzheng clenched his fists and waved his arms excitedly. Then, he hurriedly stood up and paced back and forth in the room a few times. For Fangzheng, this feeling of anticipation coming true was really great. It was like spending a lot of time to solve a difficult problem, and finally solving the problem … But wait, this was only the first step!
Thinking of this, Fangzheng hurriedly opened the door, and was shocked by the crowd at the door.
"Mr. Fangzheng!"
Seeing Fangzheng coming out of the room, the girls breathed a sigh of relief. Fangzheng, on the other hand, was still in a daze. He looked at them in surprise.
"What's wrong? What are you doing here? "
"You haven't come out for two days. It's time for training today …."
Qingye reminded him timidly, while Aster nodded silently.
"I tried to contact you, but Master didn't reply."
"Oh … I'm sorry."
Hearing Aster's complaint, Fangzheng found that he had a lot of missed calls and messages. But at that time, Fangzheng was busy sketching and reminiscing about his heroic deeds, so he did not notice.
"Training is temporarily suspended for today. I have something more important for you to do."
Thinking of this, Fangzheng immediately forced himself back to reality and looked at the girls in front of him. When they heard Fangzheng's words, they were taken aback for a moment. Then, their expressions immediately turned serious. It must be known that Fangzheng had never changed his plan before. Now that he suddenly decided to cancel training, it must be because he had something more important for them to do.
"I want you to go down immediately, gather everyone, and conduct an investigation."
"… An investigation? What kind of investigation? "
"Hobbies, and the skills they're good at."
Fangzheng clapped his hands, then looked at the stunned girls in front of him.
"Some people like to sing, some like to dance, and maybe some like to make handicrafts …. In any case, everyone should have some hobbies. What you need to do now is to investigate these, then collect all the information and leave it to me in the evening. This is the most important matter. I'm going out now!"
After saying this, Fangzheng quickly walked towards the door. Just as he was about to go down the stairs, Fangzheng seemed to have thought of something. He turned around and glanced at Jia Baili.
"By the way, Jia Baili, when you come back, I want to see you hand in at least ten investigation forms. If you can't do it, you know the consequences."
"…"
Jia Baili, who had just broken free from Asuna's hand and was about to sneak back to her room, suddenly froze.
