That's the look in his eyes, that's the look in his eyes.
The elf was somewhat dazed, his heart pounding. His pale silver eyes held neither disgust nor joy, only the calmest indifference—a gaze that showed no regard for the players as human beings, a look that no character could ever portray.
When she first watched the live stream clips, she was amazed by that look in her eyes.
Ryan spoke up, and as expected, he issued the task.
"I order you to harvest thirty acres of land."
Eh?
Is this the kind of task?
So simple?
The captain was somewhat disappointed, and she looked at Ryan with resentment in her eyes.
"Bring me thirty more buckets of manure, and I'll whip you one less time for every bucket less."
What a humiliating task!
Lord Ryan is simply a genius.
The captain saluted, and she said with a solemn expression, "I guarantee to complete Lord Ryan's mission!"
Having said that, he hurriedly shouldered his broken sickle and skipped and hopped towards the field.
After she walked away, Ryan finally couldn't hold back anymore.
The first thing that came to mind was a strong sense of shame.
"So you have such a perverse interest," Miss Jasmine's eerie voice came from behind. "You're a pervert."
"...Can we please not talk about this anymore?" Ryan covered his face.
“I’ve memorized all those words in ‘The Book of Ryan’s Prophecies’,” Jasmine said calmly. “I’ll use them as writing material for your father later.”
“Miss Jasmine,” Ryan’s face darkened further, “I feel like you’re the one with the worst interests, aren’t you?”
"How are the villagers being settled?" he asked.
"They all live in the town."
Jasmine replied that although she had a sharp tongue, she was very reliable in her work:
"Most of the houses in the town were dilapidated and abandoned, but we were able to find about ten houses to settle them in, so that they could meet with the people without light."
"Are they confident enough now?" Ryan asked.
"After hearing what you said, the vast majority of villagers are willing to start a new life," Jasmine asked.
Very well, Ryan took the whip and headed into the village.
Along the way, the people welcomed them wholeheartedly, creating a vibrant and energetic atmosphere.
The players have absolutely no idea how to do farm work.
Holding farm tools, he stood on the edge of the paddy field, questioning the meaning of life.
With the development of the synthetic food industry, the profession of farmer disappeared.
They had only seen farming in documentaries, so asking players to do it themselves was completely baffling.
There isn't even a tutorial for beginners, this game is way too hardcore!
The players could only rely on the only older member of the team, a respected elder born in the 00s.
"Your generation is truly useless!"
The elderly man, born in the 00s, was genuinely disappointed in his son. He felt incredibly relieved when he finally uttered those long-awaited words; it was as if six of his seven orifices had been opened.
What goes around comes around. After being scolded for half my life, it's finally my turn to say this.
Although he doesn't actually know how to farm.
But that doesn't stop him from showing off.
Pretending to be experienced, he pointed to a clump of weeds beside the paddy field and declared, "That's rice. Look at its fuzzy, golden ears. After the rice is crushed, it can be made into bread."
This is yellow foxtail grass.
Ryan remained expressionless, and rice is generally used to make cooked rice.
"Ahem." Ryan coughed lightly, and the players quieted down when they saw that it was Ryan.
“Those of you without light, please be patient.”
Ryan continued in his riddle-like style, "It is only natural that you are not good at farming. So I have specially invited a beautiful woman to teach you the craft."
The players looked at each other in bewilderment.
“It’s normal not to know how to work. I’ve specially hired some pretty village girls to teach you how to farm.”
The legendary investigator studied Ryan's language for half a month, passed the fourth level of Ryan's language, and then translated in unison.
[Ryan Luming issues the growth quest 'Abundant Harvest' to the newcomers]
[A Bountiful Harvest: Harvesting Rice with Beautiful Village Girls]
[0/3000 mu]
[Reward: Iron Sickle x1, Village Girl's Favorability +10]
Oh, oh, oh! Upon hearing that there were beautiful village girls, and not just one, the players immediately became excited.
The streamers' chat rooms were flooded with comments like, "Finally, there are female-friendly characters!", "Yay!", "There are pretty girls!", "Hooray!", "Finally, it's not a game for monks anymore."
Viewers who initially scoffed at the farming gameplay have now completely changed their tune.
Farming can be boring, but farming with beautiful girls makes it anything but boring.
Beautiful girls are pleasing to the eye no matter what they do.
If we work together, we might be able to win them over.
Many male players were particularly moved, their eyes welling up with tears.
The game "Eden" has excellent graphics, stunning visuals, and exquisite character designs, but it has one fatal flaw: it doesn't have a single female character in the true sense of the word.
Miss Jasmine has always stayed in the shadows and has never shown her face.
The melancholy woman in the Shadow Tower is hardly a woman; she's a 1.9-meter-tall killer monster.
The withered princess is a boss who has a sexually transmitted disease.
According to this calculation, Eden is entirely composed of men.
Ryan is male, Kiri is male, even the blacksmith is male. This is basically an all-male game, no wonder Ryan's fans are so rampant.
Now, finally there are beautiful young girls.
Noodle Sea was also lurking in the live stream. Seeing the enthusiastic response from the audience, he knew this was a great opportunity to showcase his xylophone skills, and quickly wrote a post:
"Beautiful women? Don't be ridiculous. How could there be beautiful women in this village? It doesn't feel real at all."
Sure enough, he was bombarded with criticism as soon as the post was published.
"Is it okay to talk about reality in a game?"
"Put your xylophone into the game, and I'll definitely max out your favorability."
The audience just thought that Noodle Sea was cross-dressing again; in this day and age, pretty female characters are the selling point.
Even the boldest Eden wouldn't dare go against the tide of the times.
Amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd, Ryan led the ladies out.
"what?"
Chapter 94 The Most Beautiful Person in the World (3000 words)
"Could it be... that Mr. Noodle Sea is truly a gaming legend?"
"Getting it right once is a disaster, getting it right twice is just guessing, but getting it right three times? That would be legendary."
"I can't tell the difference, I really can't tell the difference."
When the players saw the so-called 'beauties,' they repented for their previous slander of Noodle Sea. Only fifteen minutes into the second closed beta test of Eden, their emotions were in turmoil.
But the saddest and angrier people were not the players, but Mr. Noodle Sea.
Why...?
Noodle Sea was suffocating. He stared at the live stream in disbelief, watching the endless praise in the posts. He scratched his head in agony. Why?
Could it be that his lifelong reputation in the gaming world is ultimately going to be ruined by the game "Eden"?
What appears before the players is definitely not a beautiful girl.
Most of the new villagers in Daohua Village come from Gray Death City, a city that has long been covered by the 'Gray Death Curse', and the surviving refugees carry a mild form of Gray Death disease.
Unlike the wilt disease, which is covered in vines, the gray death disease still looks somewhat human.
But it was only barely acceptable.
Their skin was dark gray all over, and some even had a strange fish-scale pattern. They were thin and bony, with skin and bones visible. Their appearances were bizarre and varied.
In any case, she has absolutely nothing to do with the 'beauty' that Ryan mentioned.
At best, it's below average.
The moment the villagers appeared, not only the players but also the entire live stream went wild.
If Ryan had only summoned a group of monsters, it wouldn't have been a big deal; at most, he would have cursed them a couple of times. But he insisted on calling them "beauties," and the quest description also stated "beautiful village girls."
The nature of this matter is completely different.
"Lord Ryan..." The legendary investigator's eyes widened, and he stammered, "Are you sure it's them?"
This is a very sensitive topic, so you absolutely must not say anything carelessly.
"That's just how it is."
Seeing that the villagers were still somewhat hesitant, Ryan smiled and encouraged them, "They are all very beautiful people."
Ruined.
The legendary investigator knew things were going badly.
It's a tonic.
He still has three 10,000-word analyses to publish, and he wants to stay in Eden Chamiva.
They're doing a live stream right now. This thing is only two ounces without being weighed, but once it's on the scale, it weighs ten thousand pounds.
After a period of intense disappointment, all the players realized what had happened.
A ghost, a ghost of Dei, still roams the gaming world to this day.
The reaction was particularly strong from the post-00s generation of older men. As a player who personally experienced the era when 'dei' was rampant, he immediately lost his temper, saying, "I'm old, why won't you leave me alone?"
That ideological war lasted a full thirty years, from 2026 to 2056, spanning ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad, and lasted longer than World War II.
Having finally achieved victory, why is the government trying to restore itself today?
The second closed beta test of Eden was already very popular, and the release of these new characters caused the live stream to explode in popularity, quickly climbing to the top of the trending searches on a certain platform.
"Are these guys romanceable characters?"
"what?"
"I think Eden is lovesick."
"It's not just ugly, it's officially certified as very good-looking..."
"It's explosive! This is way too explosive!"
"This is too feudal. I thought I was living in 2062."
The players were all in an uproar, chattering away in their chatter.
The villagers were equally excited.
Although they couldn't understand what the players were saying, they could recognize that these were all Dark Ones.
They only heard the lord mention a group of farmer apprentices; they had no idea these guys were the Dark Ones!
