This game is so weird!

As I sat down in the lounge area, the female receptionist lightly pressed the button to connect the headset to the projector on the round coffee table.

A near-disc-shaped underwater vehicle projection appeared above the tabletop.

The submarine is entirely white with a rounded shape, giving it a gentle and harmless feel.

The top of the submersible has a raised orange-white metal rod that serves as a communication antenna and anchor, allowing it to connect to other facilities.

The bottom consists of two semi-circular bases, resembling flying saucers or Pac-Man with his mouth open. A gap about the width of a person is separated in the middle of the bases, and above the gap is a spherical glass cockpit, which, in terms of proportion, should be about the same size as a common chopped chili fish head on Earth.

The cockpit is located in the center of the cabin, and through the glass you can see six symmetrical blue light strips inside.

The controls resemble a racing car's steering wheel, with the bulkhead behind the seat seamlessly connected to the thrusters, providing lateral reasoning for underwater movement.

The entire submersible resembles a horizontally placed spherical light bulb, embedded in a donut with a bite taken out of it.

The submersible's base provides longitudinal thrust for vertical depth adjustment. From the front, there are searchlights and ranging radars at the four opposite corners of the semi-circular base. From the projection, there is a clear, openable hatch on each of the two base sections, but its purpose is unknown.

"This is our exploration team's underwater exploration vehicle—the Sea Moth—designed for rapid and flexible exploration and sample collection in shallow waters. It uses standard power batteries as its power source, includes a single seating compartment, and has a maximum diving depth of 200 meters. It also features searchlights and basic sonar, and its compact size makes it the best choice for navigating and exploring in dark caves and complex terrain."

"The Sea Moth has extremely high maneuverability and turning speed, making it easy to control with precision. The control system is also very user-friendly for beginners and easy to use."

"Especially since it's very low-cost...cough cough, and easy to repair. As long as the core isn't damaged, it can be quickly fixed with a repair gun after a few bumps and knocks."

Seeing that Ye Yu and the other two were staring intently at the vehicle projection on the table, the receptionist carefully gave an introduction.

Once everyone's attention had shifted to her, she continued swiping across the table, zooming in on one of the opening and closing hatches, and gently tapping it.

The hatch on the base opened gently, revealing four circular holes and a yellow insert.

"The Sea Moth adopts a modular design with four upgrade module slots, which can be used to install upgrade modules such as electric shock defense modules, storage modules, and pressure compensation modules, providing defensive capabilities, greater space storage, and water pressure resistance. Currently, these modules can only be obtained from the exploration base."

As she spoke, the female receptionist gestured to the male receptionist.

The male receptionist still at the bar nodded to the three of them, revealing a sly smile that Er Miao found utterly conspicuous.

"For details regarding research and development, please consult any staff member."

"I have now unlocked the manufacturing permissions for the Seamoth for you. You can view the information on the terminal, or go to the vehicle construction bay next door to build a vehicle after collecting materials."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yujibei and the sound of the wooden fish, stood up and prepared to walk towards the connecting passage on the side of the hall.

Seeing this, the receptionist quickly stood up and followed, saying:

"The ocean on Scar Planet is full of dangers. The original Sea Moth was unarmed, so be careful of threats in the sea, especially large predators that roam the deep sea."

"A lady just left in a hurry before we finished listening, and we don't know what she's like now..."

Before the female receptionist could finish speaking, Er Miao, who had been sitting, suddenly jumped up and hurriedly ran towards the vehicle construction bay.

"What?! Someone has already set off to complete the mission!"

"Goodbye, sister! I'll bring you some more delicious food next time we meet!" She turned to her two friends, "Lao Ye, Mu Yu, let's hurry! Don't let the others finish the mission first!!"

The three quickly passed through the passage and arrived at the vehicle construction bay that Li Ang had just built that morning.

He hadn't decided on the purpose of these rooms on the first floor yet, but now he could use one of them as a vehicle construction bay.

When he first obtained the vehicle license, Li Ang hesitated about whether to sell finished vehicles directly.

However, on the one hand, the Sea Moth itself has a very low cost and is also an important means of transportation that players need in the short term; on the other hand, the Sea Moth is of poor quality and frequently breaks down, requiring players to return to the base to buy new ones, which can easily ruin the player's gaming experience.

After some consideration, Li Ang readily decided to open up construction licenses to players, and even gave away the license for vehicle construction bays as well.

A bigger plate means you can eat more food.

I can't be too greedy at the beginning. The most important thing about playing games is to have fun. I used to hate those tedious game settings. I can't make others eat the same shit I ate when it's my turn to make decisions.

Once better vehicles become available, we will consider selling them separately or distributing them as limited-edition rewards.

Good things, whether limited to a specific time, a limited number of people, or a limited quantity, can easily enhance a player's sense of happiness.

Probably so?

That's how the scene of the three authorized individuals in the vehicle construction bay came about.

The vehicle construction bay is mainly composed of three parts. The most eye-catching feature is the huge pool of water on the floor. Under the influence of some unknown force, the seawater is blocked under the hollow floor.

Like a swimming pool, the only flooring is in the corridor that runs around the edge of the room.

In the center of the room is a deep blue, clear seawater, and blue fluorescent light shines from the facilities around the floor, forming a force field that isolates the seawater from the outside.

The top of the construction silo features several enormous robotic arms, each with a printing probe fixed to its tip. Compared to the small gadgets on the worktable, these 3D printers are practically gigantic.

It's basically the difference between a fledgling and an eagle.

Finally, there is the control terminal for the construction silo, located in the middle corridor of the room, next to a metal staircase leading to the center of the pool.

The three people who entered the room stood at the door in shock, the immersive experience beyond words.

Only by being in their position could one truly appreciate the power of technology. The scenery outside the surrounding glass clearly indicated that they were 20 meters below sea level, yet a calm swimming pool could still be seen underwater. This contrast between their visual and psychological perceptions left the three of them stunned for a long time.

"This game is so well made, I really want to live here..."

After a moment, Er Miao, who was the first to react, muttered something softly, leaving the two who had started testing the seawater with their feet behind, and quickly walked towards the control panel.

[Lacking essential materials such as power batteries and lubricants, it is recommended to go to the workbench to manufacture basic materials.]

"ha--------"

Er Miao's last syllable was drawn out for a very long time.

Just as I was about to walk through the corridor to the workbench by the door, I passed by Ye Yu and overheard them chatting.

"This water looks so realistic! Do you think I could get back up if I fell in?"

"Why don't you go down and try it? Let's go!"

Er Miao pushed Ye Yu onto the back of a few cups, and Ye Yu, caught off guard, fell into the water with a splash. She struggled for a while before resurfacing.

"Haha! This water even tastes a little sweet."

"Lawyer, the Sea Moth needs some lubricant. Could you also help us collect some seaweed seeds, the big, yellowish kind that grows on giant seaweed?"

Seeing that Ye Yu had successfully surfaced, Er Miao spoke up, then turned and walked towards the worktable, "I'll first check what materials the power battery needs, then I'll come down to find you guys later."

"OK!"

"Okay, I'll go help too."

Having grown accustomed to the two of them bickering, Muyu took a step back, then sprinted forward and leaped into the water.

"Deep-water bombs are coming!!"
