Ming Shi: Commander, do you know a saying?

The fire had already spread throughout the entire village before it even started, and the great fire had nearly burned down all the houses in the village! So... it was obvious that if Su Luo and the others didn't find a solution, they would most likely have to spend the night outdoors!

Before coming to this village, Su Luo had already looked around. The village was surrounded by mountains and forests, with only one road leading to an unknown destination. Su Luo guessed it might lead to a town or another village. In short, the current result was... they needed to solve their accommodation problem.

If it were just Su Luo and Akashi, camping outdoors wouldn't be a problem, but now they had a child with them.

The current situation was that this world didn't seem safe, and Akashi, as a repair ship, wasn't good at combat. Protecting Commander Su Luo was already a handful, and if they had a child wandering around outside...

Therefore, Su Luo believed that the most urgent thing right now was to confirm what the so-called armament added by the game production system to him and Akashi actually was.

If it was the kind of genetic technology Su Luo imagined, what would its effects be, and what kind of combat power would it give him...

In this situation, building a simple shelter on the spot to rest became the best option.

The omnipotent Manjuu, once again entrusted with a difficult task by the profiteer Akashi, began to shuttle between the forest and the open space outside the village. The short Manjuu continuously chopped down trees from the forest to build a simple wooden house.

The Manjuu worked quickly. Or rather, because they exercised so much in the port usually, building such a simple wooden house posed no challenge to them. In short, before Akashi confirmed that the little girl rescued could indeed not speak, the house was already built.

It wasn't big, just a small, single-room bungalow. Akashi didn't plan to separate from her Commander, at least not until she could guarantee the Commander's absolute safety. Otherwise, if something happened to the Commander, let alone how the sisters in the port would deal with her, she wouldn't forgive herself.

When Su Luo came out after looking around the room, he saw Akashi standing at the door with a somewhat disappointed expression.

"What's wrong, Akashi?"

Su Luo had rarely seen his profiteer cat-girl wear such an expression.

"Commander, it's confirmed. That child... cannot speak right now, or rather, is temporarily unable to speak."

"Why?"

Su Luo glanced at the girl standing not far away, hugging the Manjuu who looked like a lifeless throw pillow, blankly staring at the still burning village.

"Most likely, she witnessed her family and friends meeting their demise with her own eyes. The psychological trauma is too great, and under the stimulus, she's become unable to speak!"

Perhaps out of sympathy for the girl, Akashi even forgot to use her verbal tic!

Akashi looked back at the girl.

"After all, Commander, you've seen the scene in the village. For a girl who might only be a little over ten years old... that kind of scene is indeed... a bit cruel and bloody!"

Su Luo nodded, reached out, and gently rubbed Akashi's head, even giving her cat ears a little scratch.

As her cat ears were gently massaged by her Commander's warm fingers, Akashi felt a bit dizzy but very comfortable. Under Su Luo's constant ear-scratching, Akashi temporarily forgot her empathy for the girl.

"Alright, since that's the case, don't overthink it. There will be a way. At worst, we'll take care of her for now... When it's time to return to the port, we'll have Valkyrie come over!"

Su Luo changed the subject, steering the conversation to other matters to distract Akashi.

"Akashi, do you remember the armament system the game production machine mentioned when we encountered monsters right after we arrived here?"

Akashi nodded, affirming Su Luo's question.

"Akashi remembers nya!"

Hearing Akashi use her verbal tic again, Su Luo knew he had successfully shifted his profiteer cat-girl's attention.

"It's good that you remember. Akashi, do you know the detailed information about this armament system?"

Akashi pondered for a moment, as if recalling, and then nodded at Su Luo.

"When I was repairing the game production machine, I communicated with Princess Lala and gained some understanding of Princess Lala's game production machine's program, nya."

Akashi paused, seemingly feeling that speaking while standing there wasn't ideal. She gestured towards the room, inviting Su Luo to go inside to talk. As for the girl standing outside, she had the Manjuu she was holding for company, and Akashi could sense her condition at any time, so she wasn't worried about her safety. As for the other Manjuu, they had been sent to work again by the profiteer Akashi!

This time, they weren't chopping trees to build houses, but extinguishing fires and digging pits to bury those who had been killed. The Manjuu were piloting fighter jets and bombers to kill enemies... In short, they had done their fair share of killing and arson, but digging pits to bury people was a first!

Inside the room, Akashi took out the game production machine, opened the screen, and after checking for a while, shook her head and said to Su Luo.

"Princess Lala's initial intention for the Super Game Maker was to create games similar to the type where a hero ventures into another world. Therefore, the Super Game Maker's armament system only included the most basic items like swords, shields, and magic staffs! Our situation is similar to when Princess Lala and the others first arrived in our world and the game production machine granted them ship equipment, nya!"

"You mean, the game machine, based on the situation in this world, granted us armament that fits this world's power system? Does this game machine have an adaptive system?"

Akashi pondered for a moment and shook her head.

"Um... Commander, this is probably a bug... including those monsters created by the game production machine that are similar to this world's situation and power system, they are probably also bugs, nya!"

"You mean... in reality, Lala didn't add any adaptive features, and this is just because of a bug in the program Lala wrote when creating the machine?"

"Um... after all, Princess Lala didn't fully complete the machine at that time; it was just a semi-finished product, nya..."

Su Luo looked at Akashi, raising an eyebrow.

"But I clearly asked you to help Lala perfect and fix the Super Game Maker? Didn't you notice these bugs back then?"

Akashi didn't seem to care about Su Luo's questioning at all. Instead, a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Commander, have you ever heard a saying?"

"What?"

Su Luo looked at the barely suppressed smile on Akashi's lips, feeling curious.

"The saying is: If a project runs on bugs, don't touch the code as long as it works, nya."

"After all, according to Princess Lala's design philosophy, these unexpected situations are bugs in the Super Game Maker. If I were to modify them carelessly... perhaps even more bugs would appear, nya, or even the entire game production machine system might crash! Therefore... the best choice is not to touch it, nya!"

Su Luo opened his mouth, looking at Akashi, wanting to retort something, but in the end, he didn't know what to say.

He sighed, accepting the reality.

"Tsk... Forget it, let's not talk about this. According to what you just said, the abilities granted to us by the game system are related to the situation of this world itself. So the question is, what abilities were we granted?"
