This Game Is Awesome!

After finishing the roasted meat and resting for a while, Lin Feng assigned new tasks to the five players.

The Tree Chopping Trio had yet to complete their Build Fence task, so naturally, they would continue.

Lin Feng also assigned Da Qing and After Three Rounds of Drinks the Build Fence task, having them join the great logging effort.

The five players hefted their axes and got to work with great enthusiasm.

"You can't chop like that. Do it like this—it'll be much more efficient!"

I Shoot You Innocent did not forget to give the two newcomers some pointers.

After all, he was a veteran with an entire morning of tree-chopping experience.

The Build Fence task took time and effort, yet offered little experience as a reward, making its cost-effectiveness seem low. But on closer thought, every tree chopped gave experience, so the overall gains were still quite substantial.

"In other games, you kill monsters to level up once you enter. We level up by chopping trees. This is way too ridiculous!"

I Shoot You Innocent complained as he chopped.

"I asked the chief about that. He said we're too weak right now and aren't suited to hunting alone. We can't beat powerful prey, and we can't catch weaker prey."

Da Qing said helplessly.

"If the game's monster system is as realistic as real life, then hunting really would be a problem at our current strength. In other games, even a rabbit would dare to stand there and trade blows with players."

"In this game, a rabbit would probably disappear the moment it saw a player. I don't think we can outrun one."

After Three Rounds of Drinks said.

He felt that the game being so realistic in this regard was also a headache.

"To be honest, I never imagined that I'd actually get to play this kind of virtual game that only existed in novels during my lifetime—one you logged into with a helmet, with one hundred percent realism! A game this realistic? I'd play it even if it made me chop trees for the rest of my life!"

Wind Flower Snow Moon said with feeling.

He loved reading novels, and when he was in high school, Online game novels had been the most popular genre.

The novels were all about virtual reality games like this.

Back then, he had fantasized more than once about how wonderful it would be if such a game truly existed.

It would practically be like starting a second life!

As he grew older, he stopped entertaining such fantasies. He understood that with Blue Star's current technological level, a game like this was impossible.

That was why he had clicked on that pop-up advertisement, which had looked like obvious false advertising, and made a reservation.

It was because of those old feelings!

Now, he was immensely grateful that nostalgia had made him reserve this game.

So virtual reality games like this really did exist! And its level of realism was far beyond anything he had imagined!

Within his lifetime, he had finally realized the fantasy he once had!

The sky gradually darkened, and the time in the game had already reached past six in the evening.

The wood needed to build the fence had been gathered and piled up at the passage between the Inner Valley and Outer Valley.

The five players stared at the logs on the ground, worrying over how to turn them into a fence.

"Um, do any of you know how to make a fence?"

Da Qing asked, scratching his head.

"I know a little about ordinary wall-style fences, but that kind obviously won't stop wild beasts. Judging by the task requirements, we need to build something sturdier, at least enough to withstand the impact of ordinary medium-sized beasts."

After Three Rounds of Drinks said.

With their current conditions, building a fence capable of blocking large beasts such as tigers and bears was unrealistic.

Tigers in the real world could leap as high as two meters. In this Savage World, tigers were just a tiny bit stronger than real-world tigers, so it was perfectly reasonable for them to jump three or four meters, right?

The five rookie players had no chance of building a fence three or four meters high.

Building a fence that could stop medium-sized beasts, like wolves and the like, was already the limit of what they could manage.

That was assuming the medium-sized beasts in this world were not too different from those in the real world.

"It's getting dark, and it's already past six in the morning in reality. Let's eat something and log off. We can look up how to build a fence online, then continue tomorrow."

Wind Flower Snow Moon suggested.

Without realizing it, they had already played through the entire night.

"Works for me. Once it gets dark in this game, we'll probably just be stuck in the cave anyway, and there's not much to do. We might as well log off, rest for a bit, and look up some information."

Wanhuatong agreed.

"Come on, let's get the chief to roast meat for us!"

"Roasted meat!"

At the mention of roasted meat, they could not stop their drool from flowing.

For players who had worked hard chopping trees all day, Lin Feng naturally was not stingy. He roasted them a huge piece of venison.

"Nighttime is the most dangerous time in the Savage World. With your current strength, you absolutely must not wander around outside. Stay in the cave and get some proper rest."

By the campfire, Lin Feng instructed the players.

By rest, he naturally meant logging off.

"Don't worry, Chief. We won't run around!"

Da Qing immediately echoed.

They would be logged off. How could they run around?

On the soft European-style bed in his villa, Chen Qing took off his helmet and let out a long breath.

"I'm really not tired at all! Looks like the game's advertising was true. When you put on the helmet and enter the game, your body enters a state of deep sleep!"

"Doesn't that mean that aside from eating and exercising every day, I can spend all my other time in the game? This is amazing!"

"But then again, if I log in during the day, it'll be late at night in the game. There won't be anything to do besides staying in the cave."

"Once my level is higher and I'm stronger, I should be able to move around at night."

Thinking about everything in the game, Chen Qing's heart was filled with anticipation.

This game was simply too realistic and too fun!

Compared to this era-defining virtual game, all those online games he had played before were utter trash!

He believed that this game would definitely become explosively popular in the future!

He would keep playing until the servers shut down!

As one of the lucky First Batch of Players, with such a head start, it would be inexcusable not to make something of himself in the game.

"Still, getting up this early really isn't something I'm used to."

In the game, they had finished working past six, then mooched another meal of roasted meat from the chief. It was only a little past seven now.

It was his first time getting up this early.

Most of the time in the past, he would play games until one or two in the morning before going to sleep. The next day, he would not wake up until after ten at the earliest.

He could foresee that after he started playing Human Race Rising, his daily routine would become far more regular than before.

Far, far more regular!

After getting up and washing up, he eagerly took out his phone, opened the group chat, and started a group voice call.

This was a gaming group, and including him, it only had five members.

He had played many games, so naturally, he knew many friends who enjoyed gaming. But the people he was closest to were the ones in this group.

They often explored new games together and formed teams to play competitively.

Now that there was such a fun game, he naturally had to recommend it to these friends immediately.

Though they were probably still asleep right now.

"Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong..."

As the call ringtone rang, the first person to answer was someone whose group nickname was Shooting A Bit Like Kobe.

"Brother Qing, what the hell is wrong with you? It's the middle of the night! Why are you calling? I was just dreaming about having an intimate exchange with my goddess, and then you woke me up!"

Shooting A Bit Like Kobe complained furiously.

Give me back my goddess!

"Are you still half asleep? Middle of the night? It's already past seven!"

Chen Qing said.

"To me, past seven is the middle of the night."

Shooting A Bit Like Kobe argued righteously.

As they spoke, another group member joined the call.

His group nickname was Ranger.

"Da Qing, why are you calling so early? I was just about to fall asleep."

Ranger's voice was extremely weary.

He had played LOL until past six. He had only just begun to fall asleep when Chen Qing's call woke him up.

"Sleep later. Hurry up and reserve the game!"

"I'm telling you, this game is freaking awesome!"
