This game is so weird!

Li Ang reached out and took the yellow crystal, examining it carefully in his hand.

It was exactly the same as the previous crystal, even the size was not much different.

These are a few standard-sized yellow crystals that Ye Yu and the others deliberately kept. The smaller ones were given to the female giant for experimentation. When they found that the crystals they had were far from enough for the female giant, they kept these.

After all, developing a lottery system requires materials, and the more precious and advanced the materials, the better.

Yellow Crystal perfectly fits these criteria; its origins are unknown, and even ancient female giants had a need for it.

"You call it yellow crystal?"

"Yes, we discovered this during our exploration of the ruins..."

After the explanation, Li Ang's pupils gradually dilated.

Players tend to focus on the background story and easily overlook it, as they see it as just a game.

But little did he know that this was a real, otherworldly place!

The goddess Nuwa and creation legends...

Suddenly, I regretted reporting the completion of the exploration so early. Although I didn't know how it could be hidden in such a place, how could we just hand over the magnificent relics of China to aliens!

However, thinking about the surveillance data that was being transmitted within the base, Li Ang calmed down again.

It seems there's no way to cover it up now...

It's really annoying.

It's unclear whether the surveillance was added by the Development Division itself or a regulatory measure required by the Empire, but being monitored in this one-way way without knowing what it entails is incredibly frustrating.

What if they're also in the bathroom and toilet?

Once the players in front of me leave, I'll figure out a way to resolve this.

"Understood. Yellow Crystal meets the requirements for high-energy items and is sufficient to support this research and development."

"Research and development requires the use of two identical sets of materials for creation. Please place the relevant materials on the platform in front."

Li Ang switched to Earth's network connection, opened a webpage, found information about the Ball Ball Sea Lion, and reinforced his memory.

The creation machine itself does not require network support to operate. It relies entirely on the orange core technology inside to run independently. It only needs to connect to the network occasionally to update the latest technical information locally.

Therefore, switching Earth's network will not have much impact; of course, the surveillance problem will still exist.

The Bureau of Pioneers has not issued any warnings so far, which means they have either not discovered or are unaware of the problem. However, Li Ang has already found a solution to this problem during the search process.

Er Miao took out two yellow crystals from her backpack and placed them on the platform in front of the creation machine. After thinking for a moment, she threw in two small pieces of gold and finally placed two pearls.

Yellow crystal is the source of energy, gold is currently the most valuable item that the base can recycle, and pearls are treasures she found during her underwater exploration. They are similar to the attributes of sea lions and are not commonly seen.

Li Ang's eyes twitched; these players were quite wealthy.

They had never received pearls in their own warehouse before, and now they even had gold.

As the button was pressed, the platform surface contracted to form an opening, taking in the six pieces of material.

While you can simply throw the materials into the creation machine, making a profit from the price difference...

It's feasible to produce, but not suitable to make it public. First, transfer the materials to the warehouse, then directly input them into the creation machine for consumption. After this intermediary process, players will assume that all the materials are consumed during the research and development process, which is better for everyone.

I randomly selected a cute-looking sea lion from the online market as the base, and chose one each of topaz, gold nugget, and pearl as materials.

After Li Ang copied the information of the Ball Ball Sea Lion and input it into the creation machine, he pressed the start button and began to imagine its characteristics.

Baby sea lion, blue.

Diligent, swimming, and special water-related abilities.

As the creation machine operates, several sets of circular devices on the robotic arm rotate rapidly, forming a yellow spherical position in the air.

Biomass feedstock and three other materials flow in from the feed inlet at the bottom of the machine and rotate in the center of the stage.

It gradually turned into a liquid sphere.

Only the most solid yellow crystals remained, faintly visible inside, unmelted.

Finally, Li Ang's mind jolted, and countless thoughts and memories of the Ball-Ball Sea Lion in the game surfaced. The yellow crystal shone brightly and then disappeared, turning the sphere gold.

The same golden light as the previous biological incubation chamber filled the entire spherical field. The sturdy creation machine did not crack like the glass incubation chamber, firmly binding the golden light within.

"Wow~ A golden legend?"

Er Miao opened her mouth blankly.

Seeing this scene for the first time, she felt like she had pulled out a treasure.

Then, the golden light gradually converged and solidified along with the liquid, and a lifelike little sea lion appeared in the center of the field. The relevant information also appeared on the projection screen on the side at the same time.

【Popeye, the Pokémon Sea Lion】

[It created its own star. It possesses relatively strong water-attribute energy and will use this energy to attack when encountering danger.]

A small blue sea lion is curled up in the air, its mouth white with whiskers and a pink, ball-shaped nose. A light blue collar encircles its neck, and its body is smooth, with a pair of forelimbs and a tail fin at the front and back.

"Wow!"

Er Miao exclaimed in surprise, "From today onwards, I'm a woman with a marine puppy!"

The circular mechanism gradually stopped rotating, and guided by a pale yellow fluorescent light, the Ball-Ball Sea Lion slowly landed on the platform in front of the creation machine.

Er Miao excitedly scooped up the little sea lion and gently held it in her arms.

"Alright, the Ball Ball Sea Lion has been successfully developed. I won't go into too much detail about it; you can check it in the information panel. Also, newborn creatures usually awaken within 6 hours, so please wait a little while."

"From now on, it will be your pet. Take good care of it."

Seeing Er Miao's happy expression, Li Ang also became happy.

For creators, the greatest reward is undoubtedly the players' enjoyment of the game.

Although Li Ang is learning the eighteen ways capitalists fleece leeks, it doesn't affect his desire to make players enjoy the game.

All I want is for players to enjoy the game while also generating a tiny, insignificant profit for myself.

Even a 200% return is something to be happy about!

"Uh-huh!"

Er Miao nodded repeatedly, picked up the sea lion and stepped aside, giving his spot to Mu Yu and Ye Yu.

"So, what do you want to develop?"

"I also want a Pokémon, a Grass-type Turtwig."

"what?"

Upon hearing Muyu's idea, Yeyu and Ermiao were both stunned.

It's understandable that someone with thick eyebrows and big eyes would choose Pokémon, after all, everyone knows how appealing pets are.

But why choose a baby turtle?

According to your usual habits, shouldn't you choose Gardevoir or Masked Meowth or something?

"What's wrong?"

Wooden Fish looked at these two maliciously speculating guys with a strange expression. "Can't I think of something else?"

"The grass turtle and even the earth turtle can provide great help in the construction of our reef islands and even the construction of future bases, creating a perfect plant ecology for us."

"Well……"

For a moment, the two, whose thoughts had been so filthy, felt ashamed and didn't know what to say.

"Besides, I'm not a Fu Rui fanatic, I can't accept this!"

"oh oh!"

This is the Muyu we know!

After finishing his sentence, Muyu asked Li Ang, who was sitting behind the control panel, "Will Pokémon be able to evolve further in the future?"

"Of course, but that would require you to guide them to their current peak performance, or provide them with the necessary items. Related features will be rolled out gradually later."

Li Ang nodded and smiled, "How could I miss out on such a profitable business?"

"Then let's get our materials ready and begin."

"OK."

Following suit, Muyu took out six materials from his bag, with yellow crystals sparkling among them.
