This Game Is Too Realistic-Chapter 361.2: Daily Life of Players. Message from Enterprise

Looking at Night Ten's embarrassed expression, Gale cleared his throat. "Isn't that a bit too dramatic? We rarely even share explicit content."

Night Ten glared at him fiercely. "You better think about your chat history before saying that!"

Gale hesitated for a moment, his expressionless face suddenly turning red. He coughed and turned his face to the side.

"... I was just playing along..."

"Playing along?" Pineapple Jiujiu looked curious. "What were you playing along with?"

"... It's better for kids not to ask too many questions," Gale coughed and shifted the topic, looking at the smoking corpse beside them. "This kind of leveling up method is too inefficient, this isn't a sustainable approach."

Night Ten sighed, "If only Ample Time were here, he always has great ideas."

"Indeed," Gale nodded in agreement. After a brief pause, he suddenly spoke up, "But... I do have a suggestion."

"What suggestion?"

"Besides combat, intelligence-based classes can also choose Lifestyle Professions... I heard you mentioned that your sister majors in painting in real life?" Gale looked at Night Ten. "How about letting Teng Teng take her under her wing?"

Upon hearing this, Night Ten, who was protesting just moments ago, instantly lowered his voice. "Ah... This, isn't this a bit inappropriate? I've already taken on the task of Passing The Torch, and now I'm asking someone else to mentor my sister..."

"It doesn't matter; we often help each other out."

"But..."

Looking at his suddenly bashful older brother, Pineapple Jiujiu's eyes flashed with cunning light. She suddenly started to use a sweet and innocent voice while speaking, “Big brother, I suddenly find Lifestyle Professions quite interesting..."

Are you really interested in the Lifestyle Professions?

Night Ten, who wasn't fooled by her act, couldn't help but roll his eyes.

However, he couldn't resist his sister's pleading, sighed with a headache. "Fine... I'll inquire for you."

Pineapple Jiujiu excitedly made a victorious gesture. "Yeah! You’re sooo nice!”

"Take out the trash later."

"Hehe, no problem! I'll do it once I log out!"

Watching the lively siblings, Gale couldn't help but show a faint smile.

Being young was truly a wonderful thing.

...

"Ahchoo!"

Back in Teng Teng's Hut which was an old shop in the Wetland Park.

Sitting behind the counter, Teng Teng sneezed, rubbed her small nose, and muttered under her breath, "Who's talking behind my back again?!"

Looking at Xiaoyu's worried expression in front of the counter, she straightened her petite figure, allowing her gentle and friendly smile to rise above the counter. "... Your clothes are ready, I'll bring them to you right away."

A happy smile appeared on Xiaoyu's face. "Thank you!"

"... You're welcome. I should thank you; please come by often and support our business."

Returning with a bag of clothes from the back, Teng Teng wore a gentle smile on her face as she handed it to Xiaoyu. "I've also finished Boss Xia's clothes. Can you please take them to her as well?"

"Mhm!"

Watching Xiaoyu take the clothes, Teng Teng suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen her at the bank recently, so she curiously asked. "Speaking of which, why haven't I seen you at the bank lately?"

"I'm going to study abroad!"

"Stu...dy abroad?" Teng Teng looked at her in surprise. "In Boulder Town?"

Is there even a university in the wasteland?

That’s surprising.

"No," Xiaoyu shook her head and said crisply, "It's Camp 101 in West Continent City. Big Brother Chu said I can learn powerful knowledge there, so when I come back, I can help everyone."

Watching the sensible girl, Teng Teng couldn't help but reach out and affectionately patted her head. "You've always been a great help to everyone, both now and in the future... Go, be careful out there."

Suddenly, she felt like she was speaking like an old mother, although Xiaoyu was almost taller than her, which felt very awkward.

The game was really annoying in that aspect.

Not being able to adjust the height from reality by a mere 2 centimeters was quite frustrating!

However, Xiaoyu didn't mind. She and the shelter residents were good friends. She looked at Teng Teng earnestly and said, "Mhm! I will be careful! Teng Teng, you also take care."

"Of course, I will. See you next time." Watching the young girl walk to the door, Teng Teng smiled and waved goodbye.

Maybe the next time they meet, Xiaoyu might already be taller than her!

On second thought, could these NPCs with human-like intelligence notice that their world was virtual, and that the players were essentially immortal?

A strange thought suddenly crossed Teng Teng's mind.

Maybe Xiaoyu already knew that they were a group of people with immortality.

After all, even if their heads were cut off or their bodies were blown into pieces by a shell, they would still come out of the nurturing cabin 3 days later as if nothing happened.

Yet, even with this knowledge, she treated them as her closest friends, using warm smiles to heal everyone, cheering them on and worrying about their safety...

Was that something that a program could do?

Teng Teng rubbed her chin and mumbled softly. "... This is so strange."

Although it wasn't something very important.

...

"I... I’m leaving."

At dusk.

On the platform of the train station, Xia Yan stood next to the train door, her face showing a complex expression.

Xia Yan, who was usually carefree and openly lazy, seemed a bit sentimental at the moment.

Seeing her in a state unlike her usual self, Chu Guang, standing nearby, couldn't resist making a joke. "It’s just over 100 kilometers away; it's not like you won't come back. Why so sentimental?"

Xia Yan raised her eyebrows and was about to say something when this guy suddenly changed his tone and continued.

"Be careful on the way. It's okay to slack off at work, but don't slack off during your studies."

"Oh... Understood. You're really naggy." Although she complained, she couldn't help feeling warm inside.

Being cared for by someone seemed to be quite nice.

"Slack off?" Xiaoyu, standing next to Boss Xia, tilted her head with bright eyes, expressing confusion.

Chu Guang cleared his throat and explained. "It means being lazy."

"?"

Tilting her head even more, Xiaoyu seemed even more puzzled, not understanding why Xia Yan would be lazy.

However, there was no time to explain now; the train whistle had already sounded.

The train door eventually closed.

Pai, who was leaning against the window, waved excitedly towards Chu Guang on the platform. "Goodbye, Mr. Administrator of Shelter 404! I'll take care of Xiaoyu!"

Chu Guang smiled and said, "I trust you, and don't forget our agreement."

Pai gave him a thumbs-up energetically, puffing out her chest. "Leave it to me!"

Watching Pai, who had half of her body stretched out of the window, Xiaoyu sitting opposite curiously raised her head and asked, "What did you and Big Brother Chu agree on?"

"Hmm, it's a secret!" After moving back in from the window, Pai lowered her voice with a sense of importance, but couldn't hide the satisfaction on her face.

The administrator of Shelter 101 was called the Pioneer, and by extension, the administrator of Shelter 404 was also classified under the same term in her mind.

Participating in the affairs of the Pioneers gave her a feeling of helping the adults with their tasks.

Even though it was just running errands.

Xiaoyu nodded as if she understood what Pai said, choosing not to pursue further questions. On the other hand, Xia Yan, sitting with crossed arms on the side, cast frequent alert glances in Pai’s direction.

The train started moving forward.

On the platform outside the carriage.

Chu Guang watched the chimney with rising smoke disappear into the distance, waved his hand with a smile, and bid farewell to every reluctant face on the train.

30 students were going to study at Camp 101, half of them were outstanding elites chosen by the New Alliance from various professions, aged between 16 and 30.

The remaining students were between 14 and 16 years old, selected from full-time schools based on their excellent academic performance.

More people would go study abroad gradually when conditions permitted.

Regarding this matter, Chu Guang had already discussed it with the Mayor of Camp 101 over the phone.

When he heard that Chu Guang was willing to pay an annual tuition fee of 10,000 silver coins for each student, the old man named Horn only hesitated for a moment before agreeing to the proposal.

They had obviously done some research on the prices in the New Alliance, and they had a clear concept of the purchasing power of 10,000 silver coins.

After witnessing the abundance of resources in the New Alliance, their attitude had shifted from initial wariness to a more positive outlook.

As for whether the tuition fee was too much... Clearly, it wasn't.

Apart from recently obtaining a loan of 200 million chips from the Boulder Town bank, a steady flow of goods and consumables was flowing from Boulder Town to the northern outskirts of Clearspring City. Even without substantial financial support, he would still manage to squeeze out this money from the New Alliance’s budget.

Education was a long-term investment, whether it was basic or higher education.

The technology related to the lithium battery alone could bring him a huge sum of 3 million silver coins. Distributing 300,000 silver coins to obtain things far from being a simple antique technology, would help the New Alliance much more.

In addition to talent cultivation, there was also the introduction of talent and technology.

In fact, the matter was already in progress.

The drainage system in Daybreak City was redesigned by an old man named Butan.

Yuan Feng, the electrical engineer who had come to visit Dawn City with Pai, also planned to stay behind and help them plan and build the power grid from Daybreak City to Dawn City, preparing for the repair of the controllable fusion reactor.

Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.

Whether it was the construction of Daybreak City or the layout of the New Alliance in Boulder Town.

Watching the disappearing chimney at the edge of the forest, Chu Guang withdrew his gaze from afar. Turning to the side, he asked, "Aren't you going back with them?"

The featureless android stood quietly on the platform, still looking north.

Chu Guang remembered its name was Lyra. It came from Shelter 101, serving as Pai's bodyguard.

Of course, it might also be to protect the chip in that little girl's brain.

After all, that thing was precious, much more valuable than the common wrist-mounted computers like VMs.

Hearing the voice from the side, Lyra turned its face, responding with an emotionless electronic tone. "Mr. Administrator asked me to stay here, observe, and protect if necessary."

Chu Guang's eyes showed a hint of surprise. "So, you can talk."

Lyra nodded. "If I hinder your work, please let me know, and I will leave on my own."

Chu Guang said, "There's no need for that; you can do as you please. Just don't scare the ordinary people."

Lyra nodded again, reaching out to adjust the brim of its hood, hiding its face in the shadow.

Chu Guang didn't inquire further and left the station with the guards by his side.

After all, nothing secretive was happening. If it wished to observe, Chu Guang decided to allow it to do so, viewing it as the addition of a dynamic statue to his territory, occasionally lending a watchful eye. Besides, if it had any intention to harm him, it would have done so already.

No matter how he looked at it, the probability of conflicts occurring between shelters was extremely low. His intuition told him that this android might be quite powerful, especially considering it had never been seen recharging.

According to the information investigated and compiled by Ample Time, Boulder Arms Industry seemed to have a secret force consisting of ability users and modified individuals like Cyborgs, disguised as mercenaries hidden in the city.

Similar to how he sent players to Boulder Town, this concealed force might have already infiltrated under his territory.

Such a thing wasn't impossible.

However, this wasn't a problem he needed to consider at the moment.

In the morning, Chu Guang received a message from afar.

Later in the day, a merchant caravan from Ideal City would arrive at the northern outskirts of Clearspring City.

Accompanying them was also a reinforcement sent by Enterprise to the west.

They would stay in his territory briefly for a few days before tracing the footsteps of the Pioneer into the deserts to the west.

Shelter 404 was the Enterprise's Permanent Strategic Partner, and both sides had established a deep friendship during their brief collaboration.

As the saying goes, when friends come from afar, it's a joyous occasion.

As the administrator of a shelter, Chu Guang naturally had to make some preparations to welcome these friends.

While at it, he would check if there were any opportunities to deepen their cooperation...
