After organizing these resources, Wang Xuanqiao lit a bonfire and began to grill. Fu Hua, on the other hand, took the hides and fibers and began to make hide clothing for the girl. She knew at a glance that the Herrscher of Knowledge's measurements were a one-to-one replica of hers, requiring no additional measurements.

It seems that if Aponya doesn't come to the game hall again, the position of Ark Tailor will be taken away by Fu Hua.

During this quiet time, the hungry girl sat alone in front of the burning campfire, hugging her legs, lost in thought.

"Would you like to eat some berries first?" Wang Xuanqiao, who was grilling meat on the other side, took out some remaining yellow berries from his pocket and handed them to the girl.

"Then I won't be polite." The girl took the berry and put it directly into her mouth.

"Hmm~ sour and sweet, delicious! If I had known earlier, I would have picked some fruit on the way, otherwise it wouldn't be like this."

The girl started mumbling again, and she seemed to be still a little upset about what happened just now.

"What is it like now?" Wang Xuanqiao asked her with a smile while grilling meat.

"I just lost face, what else can I say?" The girl snorted. "I was hoping to show off and earn your respect, but now... you just keep laughing at me."

"I thought you'd be interested in something more innocent," Wang Xuanqiao laughed. "Like why fire is hot, why water is cool, and why berries are sweet."

"Hey! You're totally treating me like a child!" the girl protested angrily. "Although I'm indeed newly born, I'm a Herrscher. It only takes me a second to understand this common sense."

"What a shame! You've completely lost the sense of wonder that comes from exploring the world on your own. If it were me, I'd definitely beat to death the guy who's trying to force other people's common sense into my head."

Wang Xuanqiao placed the roasted meat on sticks and handed it to the girl. However, the girl didn't reach out to take it, but instead looked at him with some confusion.

"What do you mean by this?" the girl asked.

——The author has something to say——

Let's discuss the specific division of labor regarding Ark in the previous and current articles. First, I have to admit that it's been quite a while since I last played it. Most of my memories of it are from 21 years ago, so if there were any changes to the game later, I wouldn't be able to go back and research them. Because Ark is such a huge game, it takes a while to download it again.

I still remember when I played Ark with my friends and family, we even called it "Update Evolution," and our most common complaint was: "Update this game again, damn update." (laughs)

Back to the division of labor: Without experience and attribute multipliers enabled, leveling up and adding points is very slow, and it's difficult for a single person to complete all the blueprints for production functions. Therefore, when a team plays the game, some divisions are made early on, such as having someone specialize in building blueprints, someone specialize in weapon blueprints, and so on.

The Ark that everyone plays in the article is that Ai Li and Eden are assigned building design drawings, Aponia is assigned clothing, or armor equipment production design drawings, and Mei and Ya Ya are assigned functional facility design drawings.

Of course, due to the full infiltration of the equipment, it is actually possible to break free from the constraints of the blueprint. However, in that case, the green-skinned players will have to figure it out.

In addition, as to why Fu Hua unlocked the game "Ark: Survival Evolved", interested book lovers can search for the background story of this game and they will understand after reading it.

Volume 236: : Xiao Shi challenges Fu Hua to a showdown

Personality is not something that is formed innately.

Countless philosophers have expressed their views on this issue. Some say that human nature is inherently good, so we should create a beautiful world to preserve that original goodness. Others say that human nature is inherently evil, so we should use strict laws to constrain people and teach them rules to prevent the world from becoming dark and chaotic.

Regardless of the concept, however, it all acknowledges the nurture of personality. Regardless of whether one is good or evil, one must ultimately be shaped by the world to become a complete person.

Therefore, Wang Xuanqiao felt that for the current Herrscher of Consciousness, for the girl before him, her fate was far more fortunate than the one described in the story. She no longer needed to worry about whether she was Fu Hua, nor was she entangled with the Will of Honkai. She only needed to follow her heart and be herself.

"So-called common sense is nothing more than the experience people have gradually accumulated through exploration. But if a person were born knowing this, the whole world would change from its original hazy dream to a clear reality."

Wang Xuanqiao said to the girl.

"Isn't that a good thing?" Her expression became even more confused. "Do I have to act like a child, touching here and there and getting burned and hurt? Isn't that cheap?"

The girl's words actually made Wang Xuanqiao laugh. She seemed unaware that she had just done something like this and had already gotten herself into trouble.

At this time, Fu Hua, who had made the animal skin clothes, also came over and put the clothes next to the girl.

"The store manager's point is probably this: some truths are useless when taught by others; they only become memorized when you suffer the consequences yourself," she said to the girl. "Although you possess that common sense, you didn't learn it on your own."

"So?" The girl raised her head and glanced at Fu Hua. "I know it now, but you still want me to forget it? I'm telling you, that's impossible!"

"That's not what I meant." Fu Hua shook her head and sighed softly, "I just want to talk to you."

"No, I won't talk about it. You locked me up there for so long, and finally let me out like this, only to force me to become like you and deliberately make fun of me! I don't want to talk to you."

Fu Hua frowned slightly. However, it wasn't the girl's resistance and lack of cooperation that bothered her. It was just that she hadn't expected the Herrscher of Knowledge to have a mindset similar to that of a child.

If she really just has a childish temper, then things would indeed be... more troublesome.

Fu Hua was embarrassed to comment on her own abilities in childcare. She even had the urge to ask Theresa or Aponya to help, but unfortunately, they were all busy with their own things, and she was the only one...

Fu Hua, a dignified person about to retire, has more time than anyone else!

If you don’t do it, who will?

Since Fu Hua couldn't speak for a while, Wang Xuanqiao let the girl eat the meat first, filling her stomach first. After a while, the barbecue cooled down to a point where it could be eaten directly. The girl took the barbecue from the branch with both hands and began to stuff it into her mouth.

"Hey, let me ask you. Since you said you were forced to look like this, then do you dislike the way you look?"

Wang Xuanqiao asked the girl.

"Hmm? Well... actually I can't say I don't like it." The girl bit the steak, and her eyes, which were different from Fu Hua's, were filled with a thoughtful gleam.

"I just don't like being forced into anything. Just like when everyone was fighting, I somehow ended up there, and then a voice told me that I was the Herrscher of Consciousness, and I had to win the battle for Honkai."

"If you ask me, what a psycho! I just regained consciousness, and you asked me to go to war? Of course I had to figure out what happened first. And then you all know what happened. I was locked up by this old man. Humph! Taking advantage of someone's misfortune, shameless!"

Fu Hua didn't expect the girl to turn the conversation back to herself, and she couldn't help but shook her head again.

During the final battle, who could have imagined that such a person, so completely out of their element, would appear on the battlefield? Perhaps this was somehow connected to her consciousness and power, coupled with Alicia's past sacrifices, which led to the girl she is today.

"But it's not impossible for me to continue using this face," the girl said suddenly. "I think I can use this look to compete with the old man and see who is more powerful."

"...What do you want to compete with me?" Fu Hua was speechless.

"I know this is a game world now. Since it's a game, there are scores, so of course we have to compete for points."

The girl said in a matter-of-fact tone.

Wang Xuanqiao, who was watching the fun nearby, reminded her that there were no points in the Ark game. If they really wanted to compete, they could compare who had the greatest achievements, such as collecting survival resources, expanding the camp, or taming more dinosaur helpers.

The girl agreed immediately and asked Fu Hua provocatively if she dared to accept the competition.

Fu Hua had no choice but to look at Wang Xuanqiao. Seeing him nod quietly, she sighed and agreed to the competition.

The girl who received the promise quickly ate the grilled steak in her hand, wiped her mouth, picked up the clothes beside her and put them on randomly. After hurriedly putting them on, she ran out of the camp, obviously trying to save every second.

After she hurriedly left the camp, Fu Hua stared at Wang Xuanqiao, with the desire to get to the bottom of the matter clearly written on her face.

"You've noticed it yourself, right? She has the mind of a complete child." Wang Xuanqiao explained to Fu Hua with a smile.

"It just so happens that she's quite upset with you for locking her up with Yu Duchen. In this situation, let alone a Herrscher of Knowledge, even if it was your own child, if you locked her up at home for a whole day, she'd probably ignore you out of spite."

"So there needs to be a way for her to let out her anger. Once she's calmed down, she'll be able to communicate with you. If she wants to beat you in a game, then just compete with her. If you can win her over, it'll be easy."

Fu Hua agreed with this logic. However, when Wang Xuanqiao mentioned his own children, his expression became somewhat subtle.

She suddenly thought of something - this Herrscher of Consciousness, who had been given her appearance by the game, could in a sense be considered her own child?

Ugh, that’s a bit scary…Fu Hua almost shivered.

If my child is like this, it would be better not to have him, she thought.

"But it's really hard to make her accept defeat with conviction." Fu Hua threw away those distracting thoughts and said, "I'm not very familiar with this game, and the freedom level is so high. Just how far do I need to go to make her accept defeat?"

"That's easy. But if I give you this advice, I'll have to go help her later." Wang Xuanqiao handed the freshly grilled steak to Fu Hua on a stick. "You know I'll definitely demand fair competition."

"Well, if the store manager wants to help her, forget it." Fu Hua's expression was somewhat helpless. "If the store manager interferes, I really won't have confidence. In this case, it's better to rely on our own efforts."

She took the still-hot steak, alternating between her hands and blowing on it several times before finally finding a secure grip. Fu Hua tore off a piece of meat, chewed it twice, and then swallowed it.

"I already have an idea." She smiled slightly and looked towards the mountains in the distance.

"This barbecue has no flavor at all. If I could find rock salt and extract it into a seasoning, I'd make progress that she couldn't possibly achieve with just quantity."

Wang Xuanqiao immediately gave Fu Hua a thumbs-up. He had to admit, this woman was quite something. If it were simply a matter of quantity, it would be difficult to determine the winner, but if it came down to quality, the difference was stark.

Ginger is still spicy!

"It has to be you," he praised sincerely, "Now even if she cuts down more trees or catches more dragons, it may be useless."

"I can't say anything for now, Manager." Fu Hua shook her head, "I have to find the thing first. Also, before that, could you please take care of her? I'm suddenly a little worried..."

"She'll get into trouble because she's not familiar with the rules of the game. If that happens, she might not accept my victory."

It’s bad, Fu Hua is going to kill someone and destroy their heart.

——The author has something to say——

I would also like to thank my fellow book friends [Ancient Land], [The Omniscient in the Fantasy Secret Realm], [Xiong Yanqi], [Zhu Feng Zhi Lu], [Today is also a Diva], [gggi33], [NY678], [Take a break from the busy schedule], [Tian Xin], and [Shubayou] for their recommendation votes, and thank you for your support.

PS: I feel like it's because it's the end of the year, and many of the old book friends who used to vote have shown up less frequently. But the end of the year is indeed a busy time. Around 20 or 19, Ming Shao once worked overtime until after 233 in the morning, and had to rush to the office at the next day to prepare for the year-end review. He was almost exhausted .

PS2: Anyway, seeing old book friends come to vote and express their opinions is a very happy thing for me as an author. Isn't it said that companionship is the most lasting confession of love?

PS3: Hope everyone is well!

Volume 237: : You can go to the sea!

Fu Hua quickly packed up her gear for her expedition up the mountain. The camp contained mostly basic survival supplies, which wouldn't be of much use to her exploration. She only needed some fresh water and weapons.

As for food, Ark has plenty of it. As long as the player is strong enough, the dinosaurs everywhere are all walking meat. Of course, even if you're weak, it doesn't matter. There are so many bushes on the ground that you can eat a lot of berries.

"If you find a mine, remember to find a safe place there and build a base."

While Fu Hua was packing, Wang Xuanqiao explained to her the plan for establishing a new camp. In Ark, players had to constantly establish new settlements to progress. Most of these settlements were in high demand for certain resources, like metal mines, oil mines, and various biological resources, all scattered across this vast island.

The last time we came as a group, we were really just there for vacation. The reason we built the camp by the sea wasn't to exploit the ocean's resources, but because everyone thought sea view rooms were better...

Well, it's a survival game! Isn't the ultimate goal to live a fulfilling life? Living happily by the sea is also a kind of fulfillment.

And when it comes to enjoying your stay, Ark does offer a variety of stunning scenery. Ocean views are just the beginning, and other ecosystems will follow, including giant trees, where players can build tall tree platforms and live as elves in the trees; there are also Western-style fairy palace ruins, which are like a fairyland.

Even if you want something with a special taste, there are also ecosystems such as deserts, lava, and ice fields, so it can be said that there is everything.

In a sense, unlocking this game is a real win. Ark: Survival Evolved is a game you can play for years without upgrading, and like No Man's Sky, it's constantly being updated with new content.

"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it." Fu Hua agreed to Wang Xuanqiao's request, but after a moment's hesitation, she asked, "If a stronghold is established, will it be considered part of this competition?"

"Of course it does. That's all thanks to you," Wang Xuanqiao replied. "Don't worry about being partial. I'll teach her a corresponding method."

"Then I'll set off." Fu Hua nodded and set out on the exploration journey with some water bags, weapons and tools.

After Wang Xuanqiao sent her away, he turned and went outside the camp to look for the Herrscher of Knowledge. This child hadn't learned the rules of this game systematically, so if he just followed common sense, he would probably suffer a loss.

The system-based gameplay of Ark: Survival Evolved does make some compromises, not overly pursuing realism. Features like leveling up and strengthening yourself, learning crafting blueprints, and the classic "four-dimensional pocket" have all been retained.

It's like two parallel sets of rules. Players may not use these functions because of their own hardcore pursuit, but this does not prevent it from providing these functions that are convenient for players.

Wang Xuanqiao was going to teach the Herrscher of Knowledge how to use this function. As for whether she wanted to go the hardcore route in the future, that was her own business.

After walking a distance away from the camp, Wang Xuanqiao found the Herrscher of Consciousness kicking a small palm tree by the sea.

The girl seemed to be trying to make a handy weapon for herself, so she set her sights on the poor little tree. Wang Xuanqiao could tell at a glance that she wanted to kick the tree in half and use it as a club.

This is the so-called hardcore gameplay. The quick way to play is to just pick up some branches, store them in your "four-dimensional pocket," and then directly craft them using the learned blueprint. The animal hide clothing Fu Hua had just made for the girl was produced this way; otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to do it so quickly.

"Are you planning to kill all the wild animals around here first?"

Wang Xuanqiao walked up to the girl and asked her.

"Isn't there something called taming?" The girl glanced back at Wang Xuanqiao and continued kicking the tree. "I'm going to get myself some minions first, then order them to gather resources. Then I'll continue to get myself even more powerful minions. By repeating this process, my power will continue to grow. In the end, that old man won't be able to catch up with me even if he tries his best!"

Hearing what the Herrscher of Knowledge said, Wang Xuanqiao almost laughed out loud.

Well, this child is like the opposite side of Fu Hua. Fu Hua wants to win by quality, while she wants to expand her advantage by quantity.

I can only say...even if quantitative change can indeed lead to qualitative change, in the game Ark, even if you chop down ten thousand pieces of wood, it is still not as good as digging up a hundred pieces of iron ores.

This is the level of development. Wang Xuanqiao shook his head and stopped the girl from crafting the Dragon-Bending Club. He briefly explained the game's convenient features and its development plan to the girl. As expected, she froze in place.

"...So, we need to prioritize the uses of the resources we gather? Isn't it just a matter of taking whatever's on the ground and dumping it all back at the camp?"

"That's fine if you want to," Wang Xuanqiao replied with a smile. "But, if there's one piece of gold among every hundred stones on the ground, would you rather shovel out a thousand stones or just pick up ten gold pieces?"

"Tsk!" the girl spat. "Won't this delay my grand plan? No, I have to reconsider. If that old man only picks up gold, won't it make me look stupid for only being able to shovel stones?"

"I do have an idea, but I don't know if you want to do it." Seeing that the girl had given up the idea of opening a 'Palu Factory', Wang Xuanqiao told her the method he had prepared for her.

Hearing that Wang Xuanqiao seemed to want to help her, the girl perked up. The slight curve at the corner of her mouth lifted without any pressure at all.

"What's your idea? Tell me now!"

"You can go into the sea," Wang Xuanqiao told her. "The ocean contains many urgently needed resources, such as oil and pearls, which are currently basically obtained from the sea. After upgrading, you can strengthen your lung capacity to help you better move underwater."

The girl was somewhat tempted by Wang Xuanqiao's proposal, but she still had a question in her mind.
