"Then, the game officially begins!"
As the store manager finished speaking, a fist-sized dice appeared in his hand. The points on the dice were composed of roses. One point was one rose, and two points was two roses.
"Who wants to start first?" The store manager glanced around at the still absent-minded faces of everyone.
"It's up to you." He threw the dice to Shen Yunjia, who was clutching her chest and feeling sick, and said in a brisk tone: "It's better for the maid to get to work quickly."
"Huh?!" Shen Yunjia subconsciously took the dice and straightened her body instantly, not daring to make any big movements.
The store manager tapped the ground with his cane and urged: "Start throwing."
Shen Yunjia was so frightened that she immediately threw the dice in her hand.
"Gululu..."
The dice landed on the ground, spun around a few times, and finally landed on the number 2.
The store manager took a look at the number of the dice, took out a plastic chess piece wearing a maid skirt and placed it in the lobby on the first floor of the mansion. After placing the chess piece on the ground, the little man automatically moved forward two spaces.
After stopping in the grid, a white rectangle appeared on the villain's head, with the information in the grid written inside.
【trigger event! 】
[Work events:
Ahem! Ahem!
The dust in the fireplace has accumulated so much that you need to clean it quickly.
(Fatigue value +5 for this event)]
"Exhaustion value?" Shen Yunjia remembered that this word was also included in his character introduction, but he did not elaborate on its function.
"This is a value unique to the servant character. Only the servant character will have work events. Correspondingly, each work event will increase the fatigue value. If the fatigue value is too high, you will not be able to roll high points." The store manager explained at the side .
After hearing this, Shen Yunjia nodded, and then wanted to step back and let others come forward to roll the dice.
However, before she could lift her feet, the store manager stopped her.
"Remember what I said about being there?"
The expression on the store manager's mask turned into starry eyes of great expectation. He stood on tiptoes and kept spinning and jumping. He looked very excited: "Come and experience it now! My greatest invention!"
The words fell.
Shen Yunjia was grabbed by the collar by an invisible brute force and dragged in front of the mini manor. Then suddenly, the whole person disappeared from the place.
The people around were suddenly panicked.
The boy in the butler costume was closest to the mini-manor. He took a closer look and found that in this extremely realistic mini-manor, an even smaller Shen Yunjia was squatting in front of the fireplace with a small broom sweeping away the ashes bit by bit.
"This is..." The boy butler was shocked and speechless.
The shopkeeper on the side smiled and rolled his eyes and said happily: "Yes, this is truly immersive."
"Next, it's your turn." The shopkeeper picked up the dice and handed it to the boy butler.
The boy butler had to take the dice. He took a deep breath and threw the dice down.
Everyone around watched the dice roll.
"Gululu..."
The dice finally stopped at five.
The store manager placed the little chess piece in a tuxedo in the manor, and the chess piece jumped five steps forward.
【trigger event! 】
[Lucky event:
While taking inventory of the warehouse, you discovered a jade dice from a mysterious ancient country in the East. But this dice looks like it was produced in a set. Where did the other dice go?
Props obtained: jade dice]
"I got a prop?"
The housekeeper boy's original worries were wiped away. He could get the props by rolling the dice for the first time. Could he be the legendary person with the aura of the protagonist?
"Congratulations." The store manager clapped his hands in cooperation.
Then, I saw the male butler being dragged into the mini-manor by the same suction force, and he was rummaging around in the warehouse.
"Next..." The store manager took out another dice. His eyes scanned the faces of everyone left in the room, choosing the next player.
"I'll be next."
Before the store manager could speak, the man in leather clothes walked out.
But he was not wearing leather clothes now, Anxi noticed it before getting into the carriage. The clothes assigned to the men in leather jackets were quite exquisite, with exquisitely cut lace collars, fastened with black silk ties at the front, and paired with long coats painted with fine lines.
Needless to say, his character must be the Baron with a Broken Leg in the story.
The man in leather took a few steps forward, took the dice and tossed it.
Three o'clock.
Not big, not small.
The store manager took out the chess piece and put it on it as usual. The chess piece moved three steps. After it stood firm in the grid, the grid information automatically popped up.
【trigger event! 】
[Ordinary events:
Ordinarily, you read in the study for a while, and nothing happened. 】
The leather-clad man let out a dissatisfied "tsk" before being sucked into the mini-manor.
He stood in front of the bookshelf, flipping through a few English books that he couldn't understand at all, and threw the books out impatiently.
The man in leather was quite strong, and he threw the book directly out of the mini-manor and onto the table outside, rolling right in front of Anxi.
Anxi picked up the book. This book was only the size of a pinky fingernail, but it was very finely made. It had a red cover and rows of small words on each page. It seemed that it could really be read.
"Then it's up to you to roll the next dice." The store manager handed the rose dice to Anxi.
Anxi took the dice, which felt a little heavy to the touch. She gently threw it forward.
"Gululu..."
The dice rolled to four.
The store manager took out a puppet chess piece wearing an apron and holding a shovel. However, this time he did not place the chess piece inside the bungalow, but directly to the garden.
After the chess piece fell, it hopped four steps and landed next to a withered bush.

【Random events:
Roses... roses... roses... why are the gardens here filled with roses?
What a hassle it is to check the overall layout of your garden...oh! what is that? Is it a...doll?
(Note: The results of random events will be determined by the player’s choice)]
"Oh, my god!"
Before Anxi could react, the store manager suddenly shouted in surprise. He turned to look at Anxi: "Congratulations on becoming the first player to trigger the core gameplay of this game!"
"Core gameplay?"
Anxi was a little confused and looked up at the store manager. Although the store manager talked happily, Anxi felt vaguely that she was going to be unlucky.
"In addition to being immersive, my game also has another important point: freedom."
"In random events, you can choose any method and any attitude to complete it. Different choices will bring you different events, and all of these will determine your final outcome!"
The store manager chirped and said a long list.
Anxi understood.
All in all, the choices made in this random event will affect the subsequent game route.
For example, if two roads appear in front of you at the same time and you choose the left road, you will no longer be able to take the right road. You can only follow the left road to the next fork in the road and make a new choice.
As the store manager said, this way of playing has a high degree of freedom, but if you make the wrong choice, you may go astray.
