Build a game empire from scratch

Chizuru and the NPC dad disappeared from the edge of sight.

The only ones left at home are the pregnant NPC mother and Xia Yi, a deaf-mute who wears a hearing aid that sometimes works and doesn't work.

This looks like a configuration that is going to cause trouble... Xia Yi looked at her father and Qianhe who had disappeared and muttered in a low voice.

The deaf-mute setting also has an advantage for her.

That is, everything she says will be regarded as [out-of-body mode] and ignored by the NPC, even making gestures will be saved.

But Xia Yi didn't say much.

Firstly, she has become accustomed to this peaceful atmosphere, and secondly, she is very nervous now, for fear of accidentally welcoming a monster in the next second.

Not only should you be careful, but pregnant mothers should also pay more attention.

In this state of mind, she behaved extremely well.

Want to start cooking?

No, just do it yourself!

When she was not famous before, she always cooked by herself in order to save money.

Later, it became popular. Although I often ordered takeout because I was too busy, the virtual world often cooked for Kangna and Xinxin, and my cooking skills were perfectly fine.

Even if she needs to keep quiet, the logic of cooking has changed. Xia Yi has already adapted to the silent routine of the previous few days in the game world.

As for the side mission given by the system - [Return to the old place to remember the dead brother], Xia Yi ignored it without even thinking about it.

Although I felt a little guilty because I was so stupid that I handed the toy airplane to my brother, which led to his death.

But you can’t commit suicide now, right?

She already felt a sense of crisis by dividing the troops into two. She was divided again and left the pregnant mother alone at home?

Are you worried that no one will eat the monster and starve it? ?

Xia Yi resolutely stayed at home, taking care of the vegetable garden, washing clothes... all kinds of housework, not wanting her pregnant mother to do anything.

He wished he could just let her lie there until Chizuru and her father came back.

But the mother felt sorry for her child. Although she looked at Xia Yi, the eldest daughter, with joy in her eyes, they still had to do the housework together.

Xia Yi couldn't resist her, so she had to wash clothes together silently - in order to keep it as quiet as possible, the living and sleeping areas were placed on the underground floor.

Finally, when she put the heavy wet clothes into her bag and carried them on the first floor to dry, Xia Yi refused to let her carry them and insisted on letting her rest.

Seeing that the due date has come, and still having to do physical work...are you afraid that nothing will happen?

The mother was helpless and relieved to leave first.

Just like that, Xia Yi was going upstairs, carrying two heavy bags of wet clothes.

But after taking a look at the wooden steps, Xia Yi, who was full of vigilance, immediately decided to put down a bag.

One bag at a time, dried in two batches - eliminating all possible accidents.

However, she has become a child after all, and the problem of lack of strength is inevitable. It is difficult to carry a large bag of clothes, so she can only drag it.

After walking up a few steps, Xia Yi suddenly couldn't hold her anymore.

She stopped temporarily, took a few breaths to regain her strength, then changed her position, stepped on her feet, shifted her weight, and pushed harder!

Vigorously miracle!

She successfully dragged the heavy baggage up to the first floor step by step.

But she was so focused on not making a sound that she didn't notice the iron nail that was caught in the wet clothes bag and dragged hard by her until it was vertical!

One kick can pierce the instep!

Xia Yi hung up the wet clothes to dry, then returned the same way to carry the second bag of clothes.

In the middle, I also saw the NPC mother holding her big belly and walking leisurely on the white sand road.

Proper exercise is good for pregnant women, and since she and her father had just added thickness to the white sand path the day before, it was safe, so she didn't take it to heart.

Returning indoors and walking up the wooden stairs, Xia Yi glanced at her feet every time she went down.

Then, I saw the iron nail standing straight up!

Xia Yi took a breath.

What a risk! Fortunately, I was careful enough! If I stepped on it accidentally, we would both be dead!

Without even bothering to put on her clothes, she immediately started looking for tools to drive the nail back into the floor.

This was not an easy task when no sound could be made. Xia Yi tried many tools and methods before finally pressing it down.

He breathed a sigh of relief and moved on to carry the second bag of clothes to dry.

By the time everyone was done, it was already dark.

Xia Yi looked at the setting sun, stretched out, breathed a long sigh of relief, and her tense nerves finally relaxed:

Great, the sun has set, dad and sister will be back soon, and all the work has been completed smoothly.

The dangerous day has finally passed.

But the words have not yet fallen——

Snapped!!!

The ear-piercing sound of shattering glass suddenly exploded!

Xia Yi turned around suddenly and looked in the direction of the sound, and found that it was the white two-story building.

That was the place where the family originally lived before the monster appeared. But since the monster appeared, the family moved underground and haven't been there much.

At least the family had never been involved in the daily drama of the past few days.

Now there is a sudden sound coming from there, could it be...

Xia Yi ran away and rushed to the white house. As soon as she ran to the door, she saw her pale mother holding on to the handrail of the stairs, the liquid flowing between her legs, and the broken picture frame on the ground.

In the photo frame was the photo of his dead brother.

Xia Yi instantly guessed what was going on: the due date was getting closer, and a new life was about to be born. It would be okay if she kept busy, but because she was too diligent, she asked her mother to rest.

Now that she was free, she once again thought of her little son who had died before. She happened to be free again, so she couldn't help but go to her little son's old house to recall his voice and smile.

When I left, I couldn't help but take a photo of my youngest son with me.

Do you feel that this birth is a reunion with your younger son?

No, it was more like a promise that he would never forget his younger son.

But at the critical moment when she was going down the stairs, her water broke.

The severe pain of childbirth made it difficult for her to control herself. She tried her best not to cry out in pain.

But her hands and feet failed to obey and she almost fell down. When she was holding on to the armrest, the photo frame accidentally fell out of her hands and smashed to the ground.

After figuring out the cause and effect, Xia Yi ran over without hesitation and helped her out of here.

Their time is very tight!

In up to 30 seconds, a monster may rush in front of you!

[Light on the warning light! ]

[I know, get out of here first. ]

The two quickly completed the sign language communication and walked along the white sand path with difficulty towards the warning light switch.

——The alarm must be turned on, whether it is [starting labor] or [monster invasion], the alarm must be turned on to remind the two family members who are returning.

As soon as they reached the stairs, they heard a loud noise at the same time.

More than twenty meters away, the terrifying monster crashed into the white building they had just left.

Debris flew and smoke rose everywhere.

[quick! ]

Xia Yi quickly rushed down the stairs and accidentally stepped on an iron nail - luckily it had flattened her, and apart from a slight sting on her feet, there was no greater impact.

She opened the switch box, held the switch tightly, and pushed it up little by little.

But even so, the switch still made a slight noise:

Squeak——

Xia Yi's hair suddenly stood up!

She was as careful as she could be! But we still can’t prevent accidents!

Without any delay, the next moment, she felt the subtle vibration above her head.

Monster - coming!

Xia Yi looked nervously towards the first floor and found that her pregnant mother was no longer there. But before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she saw the monster's terrifying forelimbs stretched out!

Crunch——

The forelimb landed on the wooden stairs, making a slow and heavy sound.

She was stuck in this basement.

Xia Yi held her breath, stood on tiptoes, and stepped away from the switch.

And the monster has come down the stairs.

This room wouldn't look spacious if only one person were staying there, but it would be a bit crowded if there were three people in it. Now that a terrifying monster has been crammed into it, you can imagine how close Xia Yi and the monster are!

Moreover, the monster's flower-like skull had been split into two pieces, revealing the wet, flesh-colored cochlear structure underneath. A terrifying buzzing sound, as if coming from the internal organs, resounded in the small basement.

Apparently, this monster is going all out to find her as its prey!

Xia Yi was panicked.

As long as she stretched out her hand, she could feel the monster's twisted joints and body covered with gray-white bone.

She knew that at this distance, even if she took a breath, the monster might pounce on her and stab her to death!

She was even worried that her heartbeat was too loud.

She wanted to escape, but the monster blocked the stairs, and her legs seemed to be frozen, unable to take a step forward.

Disaster is coming.

But at this moment - her hearing aid, which was not working at all at that time, suddenly malfunctioned and made an extremely harsh and sharp sound!

This sharp sound erupted from the position close to her temple, and Xia Yi was almost sent away.

What’s even more frightening is: the frequency of this sound is getting higher and higher! Pushing Xia Yi's nerves to the limit!

She held her head in her hands and almost screamed!

But just before she reached her limit, the buds on the monster's head suddenly bloomed, revealing the scarlet blood vessels, meridians and flesh underneath!

Then - turn around and run!

The sharp chirping sound quickly disappeared.

Xia Yi opened her mouth wide and took a big breath - but still didn't dare to make any sound.

She didn't understand what was happening, but she had no time to think about it. She just climbed the broken stairs as quietly and quickly as possible to find her mother.

She has not forgotten: at this time, the mother's amniotic water had broken and labor had begun.

And the severe pain during childbirth is simply impossible to endure!

In particular, the production came so suddenly, and the measures prepared before had no time to be used!

Even if there are painkillers, the severe pain of childbirth is unbearable, not to mention that there are no painkillers now.

Xia Yi now faces a choice:

Go to get medicine, or go to the mother in labor.

She quickly made a decision to follow the bloody footprints on the ground to find her mother.

Painkillers may not be effective, but the person is more important.

*

At the same time, Chizuru and her father walked out of the forest path and saw the farm again.

——And all the red light bulbs surrounding the farm are on.

They knew immediately: something was terribly wrong.

Qianzhe quickly played with Lai and chatted privately with Xia Yi: Senior, senior! What happened at home?

Xia Yi only reacted when she saw the private chat, and quickly explained: The mother has begun to give birth, and the monster is coming too!

I just got cheek to cheek with a monster!!!

Qianzhe's eyes widened instantly, and she turned to look at the cheap dad beside her.

Dad also looked over.

Chizuru wanted to describe the situation.

But suddenly she got stuck again.

- She doesn't know sign language.

However, Chizuru was very smart. She responded to the situation and quickly opened the Key Sign Language Dictionary recorded by the system and appeared in the game. She found two keywords and compared them to her father:

[Monster], [Delivery].

The father immediately understood what was going on, squatted down and told Qianzuru in sign language:

[Your mother needs you! ]

Chizuru nodded to indicate that he understood.

The father was very pleased to see his young but calm daughter. He once again used sign language to explain:

[Go light the fireworks! ]

Chizuru nodded again, and without missing a second, quickly rushed to the fireworks device in the corner of the farm.

The father held up the shotgun and ran quickly towards the house.

…

…

Xia Yi found her mother who was giving birth.

— along with deadly monsters.

Through the window, she saw her mother lying in the bathtub with a hideous face in pain, but still trying to hold back her voice.

And the monster parked at the door just one meter away.

Xia Yi was so nervous that she couldn't breathe, and her heart was about to jump out of her throat!

She had never given birth to a child, but she knew that it was impossible to completely endure the pain!

Time is running out!

Every second, tragedy may happen before your eyes!

'quick! ’

‘Think of a way! ’

‘Think quickly! Think quickly! ’

Xia Yi's brain was spinning wildly, trying to find a way to have both ends of the world, but the more nervous she became, the more her brain became mushy.

Then,

She made her choice.

She raised her right hand high...

At this moment, as if there was some kind of telepathy, the mother, who was on the verge of her limit in severe pain and already desperate, turned her head and looked in this direction.

She saw Xia Yi's right hand raised high.

She opened her mouth wide in fear, stared at Xia Yi closely, shook her head in panic, shook her head, and shook her head again.

She silently and urgently begged Xia Yi with her lips:

[Go quickly! ]

But Xia Yi didn't hesitate.

She slapped it down without reservation, breaking the glass in front of her!

In the extremely quiet atmosphere, the crisp sound of glass breaking is so obvious!

The monster's head, which was originally facing her mother, suddenly turned towards Xia Yi.

The mother's eyes were full of shock, despair and pain.

This look deeply shocked Xia Yi.

She turned around and crossed the railing, but did not fall to the ground. Instead, she firmly grabbed the railing handrail, pulled her body back, landed lightly outside the railing, and then curled up into a ball.

The slight collision sound of the soles of feet landing on the railing was drowned in the rampage of the monster tearing down a house.

The monster crashed through the window and flew over Xia Yi's head.

Xia Yi jumped onto the white sand path and started running wildly.

She must pull the monster away, as far away as possible!

The next moment, the monster locked her position and started hunting!

The mother, who was in the final moments of giving birth, was in extreme pain and the extreme despair of losing her daughter again. She could no longer endure it. She shouted in pain and despair——

ah!!!!!!!

The monster turned back instantly.

But Xia Yi also stopped and high-fived her while shouting: Here!!! Come on!!! Come on!!!

The monster looked at Xia Yi again.

boom!!!

ah!!!!!!!

The father, who had just run not far away but across a cornfield, heard the voices of his wife and daughter and shot into the sky without hesitation! Shout!

Use yourself as bait to give your wife and daughter a chance to survive.

Bang!!!

Huge fireworks exploded in the night sky.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

…

More fireworks continued to bloom in the night sky, making deafening explosions.

Chizuru, lit the fireworks. (End of chapter)
