Starting with Genshin Impact, the whole world is going crazy for it.

Come on, don't follow that scumbag brother Paimon!

Wow, you're so bad, streamer! You need to be skilled to solo!

"Oh my god..."

PDD yelled and frantically grabbed his hair, taking his hands off the keyboard and mouse.

It seems that this really won't work!

He could only sigh resignedly, "Brothers, forget it, it seems Paimon is the game designer's favorite daughter."

Leaving won't work.

Zhou Tiankuo: Are you talking about me?

Chapter 8 What did the Hilichurls do wrong?

PDD swallowed his anger and continued playing Genshin Impact.

"I still can't believe that my idea can't be realized."

He played while muttering to himself from time to time.

[It's clear the streamer harbors deep resentment towards this idea.]

[Once you level up, you can leave Paimon, right? I don't think it will stay with you forever.]

[Quickly delete this comment in the live chat, don't let Sister Zhou next door see it, or she'll cry.]

[Hahaha, no way! I'm going to spam the chat with comments! I'm going to make those female streamers break down!]

Upon seeing these comments, Zhou Tiankuo couldn't help but pound the table and burst into laughter.

Sister Zhou and those female anchors all really love Paimon.

He's been switching between different live streams lately, partly to see how popular his game is, and partly because he hasn't played it before and wants to see other streamers play so he can avoid some pitfalls when he's grinding.

After all, Zhou Tiankuo is now a game designer, and he still has a lot to do in the future.

It's unrealistic to keep grinding this game, but as a game designer, he can't be completely ignorant about it.

According to Zhou Tiankuo's observation, there are still many activities related to games in this world.

Furthermore, since the original owner was a game designer, he should take on more opportunities, as this would be beneficial for future game development.

As for what the more distant future holds, Zhou Tiankuo hasn't thought about that much for the time being.

Coming to his senses, Zhou Tiankuo heard PDD talking about Paimon again, and then saw a comment on the screen.

Do you think the game designers will change the mechanics since they see PDD so conflicted about going it alone?

Zhou Tiankuo thought to himself, "These comments are really good at causing trouble."

However, this also reflects that the world does value games, and players have a sense of curiosity and goodwill towards designers.

They even look forward to interacting with the designer.

PDD continued playing and encountered a girl wearing bunny ears.

That's Amber.

Amber, my wife! My destiny's wife!

[How come it took you so long to encounter Amber? I remember other streamers...]

[Have you all forgotten that the streamer was searching for a way by himself, refusing to follow Paimon, wasting a lot of time without leveling up?]

The past is too painful to recall, but I couldn't help but laugh.

PDD looked at the comments and got a little angry: "How was I supposed to know the game mechanics were like that?"

However, PDD realized something else.

"But if you put it that way, this game is really generous; they've even designed this kind of mechanism very well."

PDD finally remembered that he was a top streamer in the gaming section and started giving serious game reviews.

"Besides the visuals and plot being very good and reasonable, the mechanics are also good. It's clear that the designers really put a lot of thought into it."

【Ah, right, right~】

[The streamer can speak normally, so why was she yelling like that just now?]

[The host has said so much, can you praise Paimon a bit? Paimon has been with you for a long time!]

PDD gritted his teeth: "No praise. I have no liking for Paimon."

He even glanced at Paimon on the screen with disdain.

As soon as he finished speaking, something suddenly appeared on the screen in front of PDD.

Amber was the first to react: "It's a Hilichurl!"

Hilichurls?

PDD paused for a moment, "A reduplicated word?"

As the camera panned forward, he saw some masked people who were somewhat hunchbacked.

Its body was brown, its hair was light orange, and its clothes looked very tattered, like those of a barbarian.

"Wow, this mask looks kind of cool!"

PDD moved closer.

These Hilichurls are the monsters that players are most likely to encounter in the early stages of the game.

The places where these Hilichurls gather are also where treasure chests are located, so many players get excited when they see Hilichurls.

PDD chose the older brother among the siblings, and he was somewhat excited knowing that the fight was about to begin.

"The game is finally about to start with the fighting!"

PDD rushed forward...

After a flurry of actions, he found that he hadn't done much damage.

"Why? How can I be so weak?"

Too weak, no power!

Use Amber, Bunny is already a member of your team.

Amber seems to be slightly stronger than the protagonist. For now.

Seeing that he was indeed not able to win and that his life was in danger, PDD quickly switched to Amber.

"What's this again? The only scout knight in Mondstadt..."

Go, Pikachu!

PDD switched to Amber and aimed his arrow at the Hilichurl.

At first, he wasn't very familiar with the operation and missed several arrows, but after he mastered it, he was able to hit the target quickly.

The chestnut-haired girl kept running and shooting arrows, her rabbit ears twitching as she did so.

PDD suddenly said, "Amber is so beautiful."

【?? XP awakening, huh?】

[Is the streamer's reaction time a bit slow? Amber has been following along the whole way.]

[It's normal that I didn't use Amber just now; my wife is just that captivating.]

[Amber, hehe, Amber!]

Amber has a toy bomb that's quite useful.

PDD has already spontaneously produced a rabbit plush toy!

boom----!

The two brown Hilichurls were wiped out.

The health bar disappeared, turning to ashes, leaving only some items at the scene.

PDD switched back to "empty" and went to pick up the dropped items.

For some reason, he always felt that he was truly playing the game as "Kong," as the Traveler. Amber, on the other hand, seemed more like a friend who was helping him.

These Hilichurls are basic monsters and won't attack unless provoked; they're nothing special.

PDD discovered a treasure chest.

It's an exquisite treasure chest!

He excitedly pressed "F".

Adventurer's Flower +1

The Itinerant Doctor's Bell +1

Adventurer's experience!

It's better to stick with Paimon; the game is more playable now.

By this time, PDD had already found enjoyment in the game and was no longer so resentful about what had happened at the beginning.

But if he had to do it all over again, he would still choose to be stubborn and give it a try.

PDD doesn't yet know who to give the items he's acquired to, so he's just keeping them for now and moving on.

A little while later, we saw several more Hilichurls.

PDD then took a look.

Only then did I notice that not far away by the water, there were two Hilichurls sitting side by side with their backs to PDD.

They seemed to be doing something harmonious, though it was unclear what they were doing.

These days, everyone in the Hilichurl community has friends...

[I've realized a very serious problem: how are Hilichurls distinguished between men and women?]

[Would you allow women to wear masks and get beaten up? I think unless it's their lair, the Hilichurls you'll see are all men.]
