The Rise Of Otaku
/ The Rise of Otaku Chapter 124
At the entrance of Fantasy City, the person that stood at the gate to greet the students was the representative of the highest wisdom of The Dragon's Treasure - the undead wizard Grodo. He was immediately recognized by the children from Luhua village and those who once attended the movie premiere, and it instantly caused a big commotion amongst children.
"Young warriors, welcome to my Fantasy City."
Cosplay may be a common thing for young people, but the old man with a white beard, who played Grodo, was grandpa Zhang Er from Luhua village. He obviously hadn't adapted to his strange appearance. When he spoke, his tone was a little shivering, and he didn't have a wizard's demeanor at all.
Having this kind of acting level was very normal, after all, it was just a beta test.
After entering, children saw many temporary tents, which was far from Zhou Yu's original plan of having a 1:1 scale of Fantasy City.
Well... It is internal testing, so everything should be simplified.
The children were brought into a larger tent. The arrangement inside made all of them exclaimed in amazement. It was like a clothing store, and all kinds of clothes were listed in many rows based on their styles and sizes for easy access. But these clothes were not in the modern style. They were all very fantasy-flavored clothes.
Clothes, trousers, shoes, hats, decorations, there were even more things for girls. It was so dazzling that as if they could make anyone blind. Behind the clothes, there were rows of props, mainly plastic weapons such as swords, spears, shields, and so on.
There were also some dummy models, that were placed in corners, wearing a complete suit of clothes, and having weapons in their hands. They all looked quite powerful and domineering.
Not only were the children amazed by them, but Zhou Shuyu and He Yuanyuan those two girls were also shocked by how much money Zhou Yu had spent on this.
At first, they thought that it was some child's play. But no one expected that Zhou Yu would build a shopping mall. Once an otaku became a rich man, the things they did would really surprise people.
Entering a shopping mall, and taking anything you like at will, this is a dream that many people had. Even those two girls couldn't control themselves, let alone those children. Unfortunately, they could not be distracted from work. But when it was over, they had to enjoy it as well.
The children did not need to restrain themselves. They ran to their favorite clothes while cheering. Of course, more people were running towards those weapons and armor because they looked much more powerful.
In one corner, there were several girls from acting schools, who dressed as the goodness in the dragon's treasure. Their job was to help those children wear these costumes. After all, these were not ordinary clothes, that they could put on easily.
Next to them were the fitting rooms, which were separated by curtains. Anyone could use them at any time. Of course, this was not UNIQLO(Note). In China, there was a couple having sex in the changing room in Uniqlo. They also took the video as well. The video, later on, was leaked online and went viral. Therefore, if you mention the Uniqlo changing room video to any Chinese, they will immediately know which incident you are talking about Even if two people went in, nothing would happen.
After gathering enough materials, Zhou Shuyu and He Yuanyuan those two finally couldn't bear with it anymore and went to the clothes racks to choose their favorite clothes.
More than one hundred people lined up to change their clothes. The scene was spectacular.
A tent was like a mysterious portal, connecting two different worlds. A group of modern people came in from one side, but from the other side would come out with a group of people from a different world. People could see little soldiers, little wizards coming out of the tent one after another. Since the clothes and equipment were chosen by children themselves, naturally, there were many strange but funny selections.
After changing clothes, children were assembled in the small square. Originally this place should be covered with floor tiles, surrounded by a circle of shops. And there should be a beautiful statue of the goddess in the middle. However, it was an internal test. So everything was just simply arranged, and there were only three poles in the square at the moment. The patterns on the three flags on top of the three poles were different, representing three factions.
Under each flag stood a person, that had a role assigned to them. They were the coordinator of the earth kingdom - Cheng Yong, the emperor of the heavenly kingdom - the heartless emperor, and the thief of the human kingdom - Chu Xue.
Cheng Yong of the Earth kingdom was the protagonist of "The Dragon's Treasure", so he was the most popular character in the children of Luhua Village. Everyone wanted to draw the yellowish ball that represented the Earth kingdom. For those who haven't seen The movie The Dragon's Treasure, they preferred the bluish Heavenly kingdom, it was the place where immortals lived, and that heatless emperor looked very badass. And the human kingdom was more popular amongst girls, after all, Chu Xue was a beautiful older sister.
Whichever the color of the ball was drawn, children needed to stand under the flag of a similar color, and soon the large crowd was divided into three groups. Then three groups were brought back to their respective quarters by their leaders.
On the first day morning, there was no game. Instead, each leader explained the rules of the game to the children in detail. Every day after getting up, they should gather together to do morning exercise, and after that, children could either move out as a team or alone. But a team should not exceed 4 people.
The main purpose of this game was to collect gold coins exchanging prizes, and the other was to go through the main plot to get the dragon's treasure.
There was a bulletin board in each quarter, which would randomly issue some simple tasks. If children had nothing to do, they could find tasks to do here, and they may also earn some gold coins. In addition, there would be some NPCs wandering in the square. Talking to them may also receive some plot quests, but it would be more difficult.
Every day, the most important task would be the collective task, which started at 2 p.m. on the dot. In the task, children would get many useful props and clues to push the story forward. Because it was mandatory to participate, when the time comes, no matter what quests the children were doing at that time, they must temporarily abandon it. So children must pay attention to time as well.
The combat system is relatively complex, so it has not been added at present. If the project was really established, the feasibility of the combat system would be specially researched in the future.
Actually, it was almost the same as online games, but there was no leveling up. It was just to constantly participate in competitions and do quests.
In addition to that, mealtime, nap time, and bedtime at night were all fixed. Late arrivals would be punished, and even be fined with gold coins, which was quite serious.
Seeing it was almost noon, the leaders took the students to the dining hall for lunch. The dishes here were specially provided by Zhou Yu's small farm, which the freshness of the ingredients and the taste of the dishes were absolutely guaranteed. Even if there were some picky children, they also couldn't stop eating after the first bite. It made the chubby chef couldn't stop smiling.
After lunch and a nap, everyone could move freely. However, today's bulletin boards had no tasks, and the 2 p.m competition would start soon, so everyone chose to go around to familiarize themselves with the environment, for the upcoming competition.
The most attractive things for children were probably the shops in the square, where many goods were stored. There were snacks, toys, and brother Yu's ship models, which were said to be very expensive.
They even had the latest game consoles and handheld consoles, although they cost a lot of gold coins, it still could not stop the enthusiasm of children wanting to see those goods first.
Just when everyone was drooling at the prize, a trumpet began to sound, then a voice appeared. "The competition will start soon. All the warriors please gather at B2 area immediately."
The first grand collective task was finally about to start!
