The game is only half finished, and the entire internet is begging for an update!

Click OK.

Evening Glow handed over another pair of diving goggles that were placed by the pool.

[Obtained temporary item: Diving goggles]

The evening glow remembers your choice.

Ning Chang'an took the diving mask, put it on his head, and couldn't help but ask, "What are these coins for?"

After putting on his gear again, he dove underwater with a splash, leaving behind only a string of bubbles and a mumbled reply:

"I'll tell you after I've finished!"

"Now, let's divide the work! I'll take the left side, and you take the right!"

"If you can't find the coins, remember to stir up the sediment at the bottom of the pool, take deep breaths to rapidly deplete oxygen, and that should force them out!"

Ning Chang'an's movements, still wearing his diving goggles, suddenly froze.

"Wait... are you sure this is legitimate diving technique?"

As the evening light swam toward the center of the fountain, she glanced back and added with a smile.

"Of course not."

"So you'd better keep an eye on me."

As her voice fell.

The game's mission panel officially appeared.

[Evening Glow First Interaction Exclusive Task: Wishing Coins at the Bottom of the Pool]

Collaborate with Evening Glow to complete the collection before the countdown ends.

[Caution: Running out of oxygen or encountering unknown dangers will result in mission failure!]

"Wow! There's even a hidden interactive mini-game!"

The scene quickly shifts to underwater.

The originally light and lively background music suddenly quieted down, leaving only the dull sound of flowing water and Ning Chang'an's even breathing in the headphones.

The fountain's bottom wasn't deep, and the light blue tiles were illuminated by the sunlight filtering through the water, with a dozen or so coins scattered in different corners.

The game interface also changed accordingly.

[Remaining Oxygen: 100%]

[Number of coins remaining: 12]

[Sunlight Condition: Good]

Gao Chi maneuvered Ning Chang'an forward.

It must be said that the underwater movement controls in Chaoxi Games are incredibly smooth.

Use the mouse to control the camera direction, the spacebar to float upwards, and hold down Shift to increase swimming speed. However, when swimming faster, the oxygen bar on the right will drop significantly faster.

"Not bad, that's pretty good."

Gao Chi couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "For a dating simulation game, the diving system is surprisingly well-done. As expected of the team behind 'The Great Angler,' Chao Xi really excels at anything related to water!"

At this moment, the evening glow, like a nimble goldfish, darted swiftly to the other side of the fountain.

Her movements were exceptionally practiced. She slid her body close to the bottom of the pool, picked up two coins, and then kicked a decorative stone that had fallen to the side.

A layer of silt that had settled beneath the rocks suddenly floated up.

Ning Chang'an's vision instantly became clouded.

Gao Chi: "..."

"No, she's actually stirring up the mud and sand here? Is she afraid I'll collect too much?"

Evening light peeked out from the murky water and waved to him through his diving mask.

Her muffled voice could then be heard in the video.

"There's more here... gurgling."

There's even special voice-over processing underwater!

Although the sound was muffled and accompanied by bubbling noises due to the water, the excitement in Wanzhao's voice was still clearly audible.

Gao Chi maneuvered Ning Chang'an to swim over. Three coins were hidden under the mud and sand, one of which was wedged between two landscape stones.

Players need to carefully adjust the viewing angle and move the mouse precisely to the coin. Only after a circular progress bar is full can the coin be pried out.

Just as Ning Chang'an reached out his hand, Wan Zhao's claws also reached out.

The hands of the human and the fox touched the coin simultaneously underwater.

The game screen paused slightly here, giving a very deliberate close-up shot.

Evening light shone up as she looked quietly at Ning Chang'an through her diving goggles.

Glistening bubbles rose slowly between the two of them.

A few seconds later, she withdrew her hand and made a gesture of politeness underwater, as if to say, "You take it."

The evening glow gave you the coin.

Gao Chi raised an eyebrow and his lips curled into a wild smile.

"If I had let go first, would she have been the one to pick up the coin?"

Immediately, a sober player behind him shouted a reminder:

"No, bro, stop dwelling on it."

"Look at the oxygen bar in the top right corner! If you delay any longer, you'll drown!"

Gao Chi suddenly came to his senses and realized that there were now seven coins left, and only half the oxygen remained.

He quickly sped up.

The coins were hidden in increasingly clever ways.

One of the coins is in the palm of the statue in the center of the fountain. Players need to go around to the back of the statue and find it from a very tricky angle.

There was another coin stuck near the drain. Just as Ning Chang'an reached out, a current surged and swept the coin to the other side.

Fortunately, this little game isn't too difficult.

Not long after, as the last few coins were successfully picked up, the mission prompt changed.

[Collection complete.]

Please return to the surface before the oxygen runs out.

As dusk fell, Gao Chi pointed to the water's surface and decisively double-clicked the spacebar to swim onto it.

"Splash..."

The sound of water breaking rang out, and light once again filled the screen.

Ning Chang'an climbed ashore by supporting himself on the edge of the fountain, while Wan Zhao took off his diving goggles and placed a small transparent plastic bucket filled with coins between the two of them.

Gao Chi originally thought that this initial encounter mission would end successfully here.

Unexpectedly, Wan Zhao suddenly lowered her head, rummaged through the bucket for a while, picked out the coin that was the brightest and cleanest after being washed, and handed it to Ning Chang'an.

"for you."

"What are you doing?" Ning Chang'an asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Make a wish," Wanzhao said matter-of-factly.

"Didn't we just pull this out of the water? Do wishes made with other people's coins really come true?"

Evening Glow nodded solemnly.

"Of course it works. You fish it out yourself, then throw it back in by hand."

"This is also the fruit of our labor!"

"However, I've heard that wishes made with coins aren't that effective; it would be better to use a stone you find yourself!"

The game then pops up an interactive prompt.

The evening glow invites you to make a wish at the fountain using a coin that has just been retrieved.

【Whether to accept? 】

【accept】

【reject】

With a simple click of the mouse, Gao Chi instantly selected and accepted the request.

"Nonsense, I've already spent half the day in the water with her, doing all that hard labor. If I refuse now, wouldn't all that water have been wasted?"

Ning Chang'an took the coin.

Evening Glow picked out another one from the bucket, walked to the fountain, stood with her back to the shimmering water, and clasped her hands together.

Ning Chang'an also closed his eyes.

The screen dimmed slightly, and options slowly appeared in the center.

Make a wish with the setting sun.

Please choose the wish that best represents you from the following list.

【I. Riding a horse on a spring breeze, I gallop swiftly, and in a single day I see all the flowers of Chang'an.】

[II. From now on, there should be many good news; let us not forget the carefree wanderer of the martial world.]

[III. If you have no worries on your mind, then every day is a good day.]

Gao Chi: "..."

Onlookers: "..."
