Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 216: Chapter 214: Are Elementary Students Really This Amazing?!

Translator: 549690339

This new player naturally wondered: Why are these four people eating clouds? Are clouds delicious?

So, they curiously went to taste it as well.

After making the action of eating clouds, the four people in front felt like they should respond; otherwise, it would be awkward for the newcomer, right?

So they went along and took another bite of the cloud.

As we all know, the more people there are, the more likely their intelligence will decrease in a straight line.

So naturally, there appeared a sixth, seventh, and eighth little black man…

Finally, a total of eight players gathered here, each tasting the clouds, and no more new players were matched into the map.

After stopping, everyone looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter without any warning.

They all took out candles to light each other up as much as possible, adding friends.

Even if there weren’t enough candles, they didn’t leave but explored together in groups, collecting candles like a group trip.

Fortunately, Dream Cloud’s server is incredibly stable, unlike the previous world’s carrier, where friends would disappear with one turn of the head due to crossed lines.

Thus, they looked for friends all the way, and eventually, everyone successfully added each other as friends.

Then one of them suggested, “Since there are exactly 8 of us here, let’s summon the dog to play with!”

“There’s a dog in this game?” Shuihua asked in surprise.

“Of course, there is! There’s even a guide for it! It’s on this map!” The suggester explained.

“Then what are we waiting for, let’s go!”

In the previous life’s “Light Encounter,” there was a dog named Oreo, which was a Pomeranian owned by the producer in reality.

Now, without any surprises, it was replaced by Lincoln with the recently adopted Beagle.

The Beagle in the game would also interact with the Beagle in the real world.

As Cheryl’s lens captured the puppy growing a little bit each day, the dog in the game would also synchronously grow slowly.

Usually, interactions are well-received by players; this time should be no exception… right?

Back to the story, Shuihua, Vivian, and the six new friends they just met happily arrived at the Ancestor Cave under the Clock Tower, worked together to open the hidden map’s door, and flew to a high ground.

It was a small meadow filled with tender flowers. They came to the stone statue in the middle of the meadow, summoned the glowing butterfly with the recently learned action, carefully stayed still for a whole minute.

Finally, along with a handful of flower petals effect, a small Beagle jumped out, bouncing around, running back and forth around everyone.

Everyone excitedly approached to touch the dog and play with it.

As an internet-savvy surfer, Shuihua immediately recognized, “Isn’t this Little Milkshake?!”

“Little Milkshake?” Vivian looked at her curiously.

“Yes! In Dream Cloud Studio’s newly-launched short-video account, they film the cats and dogs in the office all day. In the past few days, they’ve been filming Little Milkshake the most, and it looks exactly like this little guy!” “So it’s an Easter egg?” one player said.

“Who cares! Let me hug you!” Shuihua held the little one in her arms and rubbed it non-stop.

Lincoln felt that naming his dog “Daisy” in his daily life was too ridiculous; he couldn’t use that name naturally.

But considering the game’s Western-style setting, he had to take it into account.

Finally, he decided on a name that could be used in both Chinese and Western

context. Given that the little Beagle was a female dog, he named it “Milkshake,” which would later be called “Nancy” in the game- perfect plan!

Although it sounds like a name from the last century, the dog wouldn’t care about that.

As they chatted casually and played with the dog, nearly half an hour passed before they continued running through the map.

But after they finished running through the rain forest together, a few players hurriedly went offline to attend to their real-life matters, and naturally, the group disbanded.

Shuihua and Vivian excitedly continued to run downwards.

In the following Mist Valley level, the two of them had a thrilling ski adventure together, fully experiencing the meaning of “Fast and Furious,” leaving behind their continuous cheers along the way.

In order to collect more little golden figures and upgrade their wings, they flew through the race track one more time.

Under the warm yellow setting sun, they almost drove themselves to the brink of insanity chasing an ancestor in an observatory. After they finally succeeded, they took advantage of the eternal sunset scenery and took crazy photos together.

Following the graceful distant Kun, they traversed the sea of clouds and the fragments of ruins, rushing to the final destination and lighting up the constellation!

As they opened the gate to the next level, both of them looked up at the magnificent City in the Clouds, floating in the light above the mountain-like clouds in the setting sun.

However, the next level was not to that place, but a deep, dark tunnel leading downward.

What lies ahead was the gloomy, silent, horrifying—Murky Earth! Even the light seemed to disappear here.

Shuihua immediately thought of the terrifying experience of being bitten by a mechanical flying dragon in the underground level in “Traveler of the Wind,” and instantly got goosebumps all over her body.

She looked at Vivian fearfully, hoping to gain some courage from the “Boss” she had in mind.

But unexpectedly, the “Boss” suddenly said, “My mom told me to log off and go to bed.”

“So early?” Shuihua was a bit puzzled, “It’s not even 9 0’clock yet, is it?” “Mom said that if I sleep too late, I won’t grow tall.”

“Grow…not tall?” Shuihua unconsciously thought about her own height, then inexplicably thought about Lance’s height, and felt there was no need for her to worry about this.

So she confidently said, “That’s a lie! Only elementary school students need to go to bed early to grow!”

Vivian replied, “But I am an elementary school student.”

Shuihua was immediately taken aback, “You are…an elementary school student? Really? What grade are you in?”

“Third grade!” Vivian answered immediately.

“This…this…” Shuihua hadn’t realized this at all while playing up to this point.

Mainly, their conversations were about the game itself, such as: “The scenery here is so beautiful!” “This move is so interesting! I can float and meditate now!”

“Candles! Candles! Over there!”

“This place is somewhat similar to ‘Wind Journey’!”

Not only did Shuihua not realize that the person on the other side might be an elementary school student, but she also didn’t hesitate to call her “Boss” while dragging her arm…

So now, she felt extremely embarrassed, “So, how old are you, little sister?”

“I’m 9 years old this year!” Vivian answered obediently.

“Oh, good.” Shuihua’s mouth felt dry, and she was at a loss for how to interact with her, so she could only awkwardly continue to praise her, “You…play the game really well…

After an awkward goodbye and urging her little sister to rest earlier, Shuihua almost regressed.

– Are even third-grade elementary school students so good at playing games now?!

Originally, she planned to stay up all night and beat the game, but this sudden surprise made her feel as if she had been stabbed a few times, and she lost her will to continue…

Looking at the gloomy and terrifying atmosphere of the “Grave Soil” map in front of her,

Shuihua immediately decided to stop here for today, one step back gives a broad ocean and sky!

“Now all I have in my mind is studying! No one can distract me with games!”

But at the same time, an idea popped up in her mind: “Tomorrow is Saturday! Why not skip evening study and play with Lance?”
