[Side mission·House repair: When you come to the farm, you find that no one has lived in the house here for a long time. If you plan to live here for a long time, you need to repair the house first. (Please meet the basic requirements first: learn the "Craftsman" skill.)]
[Task reward: 500 experience points, furniture gift pack × 1]
Lu Xi just checked the requirements for repairing the stairs on the second floor, and another side task quickly popped up.
Speaking of the game Leisure Farm, in fact, it does not have many main missions. After all, a "leisure" farm will certainly not release too many main missions to keep players busy.
What can be called main quests are basically important content in the game, the kind that would make it difficult to continue playing without doing the main quest.
But at the same time, there are only one side task in the leisure farm, and up to dozens of side tasks can be triggered at the same time - some players said that the game production company actually changed the name of the main task and listed it under the side task. .
Lu Xi fully agrees with this. Although it is said that the game cannot be played without completing the main missions, it is also impossible to play the game without completing many side missions!
After looking at the main tasks, Lu Xi calculated that in order to learn "tailoring", he must repair the stairs and sewing machines on the second floor. In order to repair them, he must first learn the "craftsman" skill, and the kitchen on the first floor also needs repairs.
Speaking of "hunting" skills, they probably also require tools, and they probably don't fall outside the scope of "craftsman" skills.
In general, go to Craftsman Uga first.
The "Carpenter" skill looks very similar to the "Craftsman" skill in name, but it is very different.
Carpenters mainly make various furniture and wood products, while craftsmen master the skills of making tools and "repairing" various things.
Uga was also at home, but he was not forging iron in the forge like yesterday. Instead, he was wearing a monocle and sitting in front of the production table, concentrating on making something.
The monocle is exquisite enough, and it doesn’t look like something that a strong man like Uga would wear. At first glance, it looks like Wu Song’s hairpin does not fit well, but after looking at it twice, I feel that it does. It feels different.
After all, Uga, apart from his exaggerated muscles, looks pretty good.
Lu Xi glanced at Uhe twice and felt that he would probably ignore him in this state, so he took out a small wooden chair in the corner and sat down boredly, waiting for Uhe's "action plot" to end.
Zhuo Zhuo and Xiao Yuan were guarding Lu Xi's back as always, one on the left and one on the right, but the two cubs were not honest.
Zhuo Zhuo curiously bit the braid on Lu Xi's back and played with it. When Xiao Yuan saw it, he jumped up angrily and gave Zhuo Zhuo a paw to let him go.
Although Xiao Yuan's beating didn't hurt at all, Zhuo Zuo still had an aggrieved face. He let go of Lu Xi's hair, lowered his body, and rubbed his head against Lu Xi to complain about Xiao Yuan's condition.
Lu Xi was so rubbed that he could hardly sit still. One hand touched Zhuo Zuo's head very perfunctorily as a comfort, and the other hand did not forget to rub the angry Xiao Yuan. Master Duan Shui was extremely qualified.
However, Lu Xi, who was immersed in interacting with the cub, did not notice that she and the cub were laughing and joking, while Uhe, who was concentrating on his work, looked up with great dissatisfaction.
However, thinking that Lu Xi did not choose to disturb him directly, but waited aside, Uhe lowered his head again.
After Lu Xi comforted the two cubs and lured them outside to play in the water, he looked back at Uhe, who still looked like he was working seriously.
A few minutes later, Wu He finally put down the tools in his hands and walked towards Lu Xi, his tone as bad as ever, "What else do you want to do with me?"
"I want to learn the 'craftsman' skill." Lu Xi said casually while looking at the monocle that had not been put away on Uhe's face.
Uhe was a little over 1.9 meters tall. When he got closer, he felt very oppressive. However, Lu Xi's mind was filled with the image of Uhe's character and he didn't notice any oppressive feeling at all.
All the current things in Lingxuan Farm are quite different in details from leisure farms on earth.
For example, the characters' images and names have been changed to fit the different world.
Lu Xi seriously felt that if the original leisure farm game had a character design like Uga, then there would probably be an additional "character strategy" gameplay.
Who doesn't like a big-breasted, muscular stud wearing a dainty monocle.
Lu Xi was slightly lost in thought when Uhe spoke at this moment. She didn't quite hear what Uhe said. After regaining consciousness, she subconsciously said, "Ah, what did you say?"
Wu He frowned and looked at Lu Xi, who had just sneered and said, "Relying on foreign objects can be considered learning."
As a result, Lu Xi asked again. Repeating the sarcastic words lost the original sarcastic effect, so Uhe looked at Lu Xi coldly, "If you want to learn the 'craftsman' skill, go and repair your repair station."
Lu Xi didn't take Wu He's bad attitude seriously and asked sincerely, "How should the repair station be repaired?"
"Take it." An A4 drawing full of machine structures was handed over to Uga.
After Lu Xi reached out to take it, a system notification popped up.
[System notification: Congratulations to the player for obtaining a "Repair Station Maintenance Drawing". Before using it, please prepare the following materials: frost dew tree wood × 10, sandstone tree wood × 10, and bluestone × 5. 】
Uhe turned around and walked back, ignoring Lu Xi. Lu Xi was confused for a moment. This Uhe looked different from other resident NPCs in every way.
But without thinking too much, Lu Xi accepted his fate and ran into the dark forest.
"Can't we explain all the required materials for these tasks in one go?!" Lu Xi was angry.
In the past, when playing games, she only had to click on the screen, and running back and forth seemed a bit tedious at most. But now she is a real person experiencing the game, relying entirely on her own legs... Take off!
Don’t you feel tired from doing the job? !
No, Zhuo Zhuo was soaring happily above the dark night forest at a very fast speed. If Xiao Yuan running behind him could speak, he would definitely have cursed at this time.
There are three types of trees that can be cut down in the Dark Night Forest. The one closest to the farm entrance is the Frost Dew Tree, which Lu Xi collected in previous missions. In the middle of the map is a plant called the Sun and Moon Tree, which only appears at specific times.
The gravel tree required for the mission was far away, at the other end of the dark night forest. Lu Xi felt that it would take at least an hour to run there on his own.
So it was time for Zhuo Zhuo to show off.
Fortunately, Zhuo Zuo's flying was not prohibited in the dark night forest. Lu Xi jumped off Zuo Zuo's back. She was a little afraid of heights at first, but after flying with Zhuo Zuo a lot, she became completely fearless.
Of course, her fear of heights is not pathological. For example, she would faint if she was at a high place. It is simply a fear of the insecurity at high altitudes.
Almost normal people will have it, but some people will overcome their fear due to various experiences, and some people will deepen their fear due to various experiences.
Lu Xi was the former. She was carried on Zhuo Zhuo's back for more than a month without a seat belt or any protective measures, and she no longer had any fear.
The Frost Dew Tree is a tree whose entire body is silvery white, as if covered with a layer of frost, while the Sandstone Tree is a tree whose entire body is blue-black and exudes a metallic sheen.
If it weren't for the leaves growing on it, Lu Xi would have thought this thing was carved out of some kind of stone - there is no such plant in casual farm games on earth.
Taking out his ax and cutting down all the dozen or so trees around him, Lu Xi noticed the "bluestone" next to him, which was also the only stone that could be mined in the dark night forest.
In fact, it looks like the most ordinary big stone, but it has a name on it that only Lu Xi can see, making it unusual.
Lu Xi took out the mining pickaxe from the basic tool box and pointed it hard at the bluestone.
After a "bang" sound, several system notifications popped up in succession.
[System prompt: At present, you have not mastered the "mining" skills. Please mine ore after learning. 】
[Side mission·Mining: Please find the miner Kufu and learn the techniques of mining ore from him. (Kuf is located in the underground mine in the Dark Night Forest. Please unlock the map of the underground mine first)]
[Task reward: 300 experience points, advanced mining pick x 1, mining tool set x 1]
Lu Xi was immediately dumbfounded and on the verge of tears. How many side tasks did she have to complete before she could learn the "tailoring" skill? ! ! !
The mining pick in her hand tightened again and again. Lu Xi sighed and accepted her fate. What else could she do if she didn't complete the task?
Looking through the previous side missions, Lu Xi saw [Side Mission·Dark Night Forest]. The mission reward was a map, which should be the unlocking conditions for the underground mine.
Therefore, she now needs to complete the [Side Mission: Dark Night Forest], obtain the mission reward map, unlock the underground mine, find the miner Kufu in the mine, and learn the "mining" skill.
After mining the bluestone, go back and repair the repair bench, learn the "craftsman" skill, then repair the stairs on the second floor, repair the sewing machine, and then learn the "tailor" skill.
Lu Xi sincerely prayed that no other side quests would pop up in the middle. Her liver function was actually not very good.
Lu Xi had done this in the Leisure Farm game when exploring the wild map. The main purpose was to unlock several teleportation points so that players could use teleportation props to teleport to the location where they needed to obtain materials at any time, so as to prevent players from wasting time on the road.
But now, after the game has become real content, Lu Xi is not sure whether the process is the same, but there are no prompts when looking at the side tasks, so Lu Xi can only try based on his previous experience.
But now, Lu Xi couldn't let Zhuo Zuo carry her on his back. Zhuo Zuo was going too fast. He couldn't stop in many places and had to turn around and fly back.
"Roar!!!" As soon as they turned a corner, the roar of the monster suddenly came over. Lu Xi was shocked. Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo immediately stood in front of Lu Xi vigilantly.
Lu Xi blinked and looked in the direction of the roar. They were three wild boar-like creatures, about one and a half meters tall, and their size was not too exaggerated.
The hair on the body is a stone-like blue-black color, with long black manes hanging down, and two sharp fangs dozens of centimeters long, facing the sky.
Xiao Yuan was the first to breathe a sigh of relief. He could feel that there were only three ordinary monsters on the opposite side, which did not pose a great threat to Lu Xi. After all, there was a young dragon Zhuo Zuo here.
As for Xiao Yuan himself, he is very self-aware. Although low-level monsters do not have elemental abilities, they have mastered the wind element.
But Xiao Yuan is just a cub after all, and its attack power is not even enough to break through the defenses of ordinary monsters. Their outer skin is very hard at first glance. Xiao Yuan can only run fast enough not to be caught up.
The young dragon Zuo Zuo is different. Even if an intermediate monster comes over, it will be difficult to break through Zuo Zuo's defense. These ordinary monsters are not enough for Zuo Zuo to flick his tail a few times.
Zhuo Zhuo also yelled and was about to step forward to show off his skills, but Lu Xi stretched out his hand to stop Zhuo Zhuo.
Click on the map to view it, and sure enough, the map at this location is marked with the words "King Kong Wild Boar". It is not a threat, but just a material on the farm.
Sure enough, after observing for a while, Lu Xi found that these King Kong wild boars were just wandering on the same route, roaring every ten minutes and doing nothing else.
Even when Zhuo Zuo walked struttingly among them, he didn't react at all. He didn't attack or run away. He was extremely inert.
Zhuo Zhuo also discovered this, and his eager expression suddenly turned into looking down on them, expressing his extreme contempt for these dead King Kong wild boars.
Lu Xi shook his head and quickly passed by the group of King Kong wild boars. After entering the vicinity of the King Kong wild boars, the system also sent a notification message.
[System prompt: Players have not learned the "hunting" skill yet, and are temporarily unable to attack or capture prey. 】
Lu Xi ignored the system notification that there was no side mission popping up and continued on his way. He soon passed a huge cave with the words "King Kong Wild Boar's Lair" displayed on it.
There is no such thing in casual farm games on earth. Who cares where the wild monsters live in the game? Just refresh at a fixed location.
Lu Xi couldn't hunt, so she didn't go in specifically. She continued walking back, passed a small river, and passed many plants that could be picked. Lu Xi finally saw the goal of her trip.
A wooden table covered with elemental arrays.
There is an open space around, and there is just a wooden countertop there, which is difficult to see.
Lu Xi walked over and felt a sudden tremor in her heart. She had already seen the various signs of wear and tear on the wooden countertop - she wouldn't be required to learn "craftsman" skills before she could repair it, right? No way? ? ?
As he approached tentatively, a game panel suddenly appeared. Fortunately, there was no system notification that Lu Xi didn't want to see.
Instead, a battery-like sign appeared with the number "0%" written on it, and a red exclamation point next to it, displaying the words "This teleportation station is missing elemental power" in font.
Then there are two lines of text below.
[Supplementary elemental power: low-level elemental stones (there are no such items in the backpack)]
[Supplementing elemental power: elemental materials (there are no items of this type in the backpack)]
Lu Xi understood that this teleportation platform was different from other items in the farm. This thing was in the form of "charge" and required players to spend money to purchase specific items to unlock, such as elemental stones.
However, it is not mandatory for players to spend krypton gold. They can also use other things instead, such as elemental materials.
It's just that Lu Xi doesn't have these two things now.
Lu Xi's eyes moved slowly and fell on Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo behind him. He looked at the two cubs in a daze and slowly showed a smile.
When writing, I drew lessons from certain games and observed the tasks of other games while writing.
I found that the mission logic in the game is not as good as the mission logic I wrote - there is no logic at all!
