First Player Chapter 903

   After Su Mingan got in touch with the girl, the game officially started.

  【Game Tips: You are a detective and archaeologist, and you have collected many mysterious antiques including the Eye of the Old. You have entered the age of steam airships with a child. Please trigger various events during your common growth with her to help her get out of the haze and become an independent person, and face the coming war together. 】

  The green guide arrow of the game appeared in front, instructing Su Mingan to return home.

  Under the snowy sky, Su Mingan took the girl's hand and walked forward step by step.

  The dim light fell on the girl's hand, and the fingertips were full of pits and frostbite. When Su Mingan took her hand, it didn't seem like he was holding a girl's soft hand, but like touching a rough and cold stone.

  He lowered his head and looked at the girl. Her purple pupils seemed a little dull, and when she stared at him, there was a vague emotion flashing in her eyes, but soon, she smiled.

   "Master Detective." She called out.

"Um."

  Su Mingan responded, and walked in the snow that was getting bigger and bigger. The street has entered the dusk, and the voice of the peddler has also disappeared. The gear-built locomotive is parked on the side of the street, the engine has already been turned off, and everything is very quiet.

   "Chacha, chacha." The sound of stepping on the snow.

  It was so quiet that only the sound of the two of them stepping on the snow could be heard.

   Shua la la, Shua la la.

  White snow particles floated past his ears, and Su Mingan's dark brown scarf fluttered gently with the cold wind, like a fish swimming in the snow. He let his hair flutter in the air behind his head. Sometimes, when the coat fluttered and the girl followed him, he could smell a refreshing aroma of red wine.

   This section of snowy road is actually not long, and it took only a few minutes for Su Mingan to arrive. But when the girl went back with him, she felt that the journey seemed very, very long, and they had walked for a long, long time.

  The snow-white redemption angel came down to her side, and they walked the snow-white road to heaven together, as if erasing all her previous pains, until they reached the warm and dense hut. The moment she saw the house number, the girl came to her senses. It turned out that she was not following an angel, but a detective who was still in the world.

  【Detective: Come in. I will take care of you later. 】

  【Girl: (nodding)...】

   With a "click", Su Mingan turned on the light in the room, and with a crisp sound, the dim yellow light flickered a few times, then quickly dimmed.

  【Detective: It seems that the lamp needs to be repaired. 】

【girl:…】

  【Detective: You sit on the sofa over there. 】

  The girl turned her head to the side, Mr. Detective's home was somewhat informal, and it was different from the clean and tidy home she imagined. The room was filled with odds and ends, antiques, and old yellowed books. The room is very crowded, and the only place to stay is the sofa directly in front of you.

  It turns out that Mr. Detective's family background is not good, and he is not the rich man she expected. Then he would rather pay 39 Kerr to help her?

  【Girl: Let me clean up for you. 】

  【Detective: No, you got caught in the snow. You just sit on the couch and I turn on the fireplace. 】

  Su Mingan studied the fireplace in the room. The girl sat quietly on the sofa, her hair was wet, and she sneezed.

  Su Mingan found a towel for her and asked her to wipe her hair.

  【Detective: Although you will choose your own name, I can't always call you "girl". You should think of a nickname first, so that it is easier to call you. 】

  【Girl: (Contemplating)...I don't have much culture, Mr. Detective, I can't think of a particularly beautiful name, so you should choose it. 】

  【Detective: It's better to leave it to you to choose a name. It doesn't matter if the name is not beautiful. Our names don't exist in this world for the sake of beauty. Beauty is only a vassal, and your free will is the meaning. 】

  【Girl: (eyes light up) I see, what you said makes sense, Mr. Detective! 】

  【Girl: (Thinking for a moment) When I was picking up trash outside the theater, I heard people talking about—there is a particularly tenacious female character called "Alice", who is unwilling to give in and grows like a little flower in the plot. I also want to be strong like her, so please call me "Alice" before I name myself. 】

  Su Mingan heard a "ding dong".

  【Your words inspired the girl's "wisdom"! Girl's wisdom +1! 】

  【The official content of the game—development has started! You can nurture your child by giving him or her a schedule to study different subjects. (Please note that if the child's favorability with you is too low, he/she may not follow your arrangement.)]

  [Properties], [Message], and [Schedule] three golden boxes appeared in the lower left corner of Su Mingan's field of vision.

  Su Mingan looked at these three options, first clicked [Properties], and a line of interface appeared in front of him.

  【Name: Alice (Age: 12 and a half years old)

  Occupation: None

  Skills: None

  Comprehensive evaluation: D

   Favorability: 50 (more trustworthy)

  Remarks: They seem to be ordinary orphans that can be seen everywhere. They don't know any skills and martial arts, and they don't look special? 】

  【Game Tips: Before the final war comes, you can arrange [schedule] for your child. Learning different courses will improve the child's different attributes. The child's final achievement depends on his/her final comprehensive attribute. 】

  【Game hint: The average initial level of the four basic attributes of "Physique", "Force", "Wisdom", and "Emotional Intelligence" is 5 for ordinary people. You can judge your child's talent based on this value. 】

  【Game Tip: "Good and Evil" represents the child's good and evil tendencies. If it is positive, it is good, and if it is negative, it is evil. Good and evil will greatly affect the character and future identity of the child, and may also affect your safety from the plot level. Human desires are infinite, please be extremely careful with this value! 】

  【Game tips: "mood" represents the child's mood. If it is too low, the child may do things you can't imagine, and may even become black. Please try to maintain a high level. 】

  Su Mingan felt a little dizzy looking at the long string of panels.

  —It's really a development game!

  He studied the information carefully, and felt that it was similar to the cultivation games he had played in Zhai Xing before. It is all based on the child's final comprehensive attributes to determine the child's outcome.

  For example, if the force value is higher than 30, the child may become a heroic soldier in the future, and if the intelligence value is higher than 30, the child may become a scholar who studies knowledge in the future. If both the force value and the intelligence value are above 100, the child may achieve higher achievements, such as a strategist who strategizes and a general who leads troops. If the child is also mastering occult science and other technologies and is interested in occult science, he may not become a talent in warfare, but turn to study these fields of occult science and become a "master of occult science".

  If the dance is vigorously cultivated, and the force and intelligence are not cultivated, the child may become a dancer. Finally, judge whether the child will become a third-rate dancer, a first-rate dancer, or a top dancer in the world according to the level of the skill of dancing. Other skills are analogous.

  Su Mingan glanced at Alice's information, whether it was piano, chess, calligraphy, painting or engineering and mathematics... all her skill values ​​were all 0, which meant that she had never touched it at all.

  Perhaps the only thing that stands out about Alice's panel is that her IQ and EQ are both 8, above the level of ordinary people.

  Su Mingan guessed for a while—because they knew that there would be a war in the end, most dream patrollers would definitely be inclined to cultivate their children's force system, whether it is "physical fitness" or "force" in the basic attributes. Whether it is the "way of attack", "the way of defense", "the way of healing", "the way of law" in the martial arts attribute, or the "military" and "equestrian skills" in the learning attribute are all considered military systems.

  As for attributes such as "dance", "cooking", and "calligraphy", basically no dream patroller will touch them, because they have no effect on war and are not conducive to their final war contribution.

  Su Mingan believes that the difference between this game and normal nurturing games is that in this game, the relationship between children and players is more like an equal relationship. It is not that the players arrange the schedule, and the children will definitely listen. Because the age of the child only needs to be under 30 years old, and the child can be older than the players. Moreover, the fate of the child is very likely to affect the fate of the player itself. If the child joins some evil organization, the safety of the player will also be threatened. If the child is not strong enough in the future, it may cause the player to die on the battlefield-this is an extremely dangerous development game, and the player is likely to die because of his own development decision.

  Every step must be carefully cultivated so that both players and children can survive in future wars. The two are symbiotic.

  Su Mingan opened the "Friends" interface, and saw a message sent to him by Su Luoluo. This kind of private chat is invisible to the audience.

  【Su Mingan (Dream Watcher No. 1): Have you found a training partner yet? 】

  【Please call me Miss Demon King (20w Pink Dream Tour anchor): I found it. I'm an entertainment anchor. I didn't want to make a big contribution in the final war, so I went to an orphanage to adopt a child. He is very ordinary. I didn't intend to force him. He seems to like painting very much. I am going to give money for him to learn painting and become a painter in the future! 】

  【Su Mingan (Dream Watcher No. 1): Is that so...】

  【Please call me Miss Demon King (20w Dream Tour anchor): Little Yunduo, what are your thoughts? You are now the No. 1 dream watcher, and hundreds of millions of people are watching your every move. If you fail in this game, you don't know how many people will mock you. I recommend that you directly find an adult as a companion, so that you don't need to spend a lot of training time. Raising children is too time-consuming, and war will come at any time. 】

  【Su Mingan (Dream Watcher No. 1): You are right. 】

  【Please call me Ms. Demon King (20w Dream Tour anchor): I heard from the audience in my live broadcast room that Yi Zhongyu just found Wangcheng Knight as a partner directly, and the two are going to make progress together. And the anchor North directly contacted the church, and seemed to be planning to start from the level of priests. Little Yunduo, I saw that some viewers said that you found an orphan with no characteristics...? 】

  【Su Mingan (No. 1 Dream Watcher): She still has her own characteristics. 】

  【Please call me Miss Demon King (20w Dream Tour anchor): Alright! In fact, winning or losing is not important, I believe in your judgment, come on, Little Yunduo! 】

  Su Mingan asked Su Luoluo for her information. He looked at it and found that Su Luoluo's child had similar attributes to Alice, and Alice had no specialties. Is she really the person whom the Eye of the Old One has designated to cultivate?

   Su Mingan glanced back, Alice sat quietly on the sofa, wiping her hair. The firelight of the fireplace was beating, and the warm yellow light was smudged on her pale face.

  Seeing him turning his head, she smiled at him, like a small warm yellow flower.

  Su Mingan's eyes moved.

  【Detective: Even if it's normal... Maybe it doesn't matter. 】

  【Detective: Because I was just an ordinary person at first. 】

  【Detective: Maybe she can really perform miracles. 】

  Su Mingan closes [Properties] and clicks on [Messages].

   This [Message] interface is temporarily empty, and there is nothing in it. It should be the player's future information source.

  Finally, Su Mingan clicked on [Schedule].

  In an instant, a large list of courses appeared in front of his eyes:

[Elementary Piano Class], [Elementary Dance Class], [Elementary Foreign Language Class], [Understanding Faith], [Oracle Science], [Diversity Teaching Class], [Elementary Sword Art Class], [Poetry Reading Class], [Introduction to Mysticism]...Hundreds of courses appeared on the panel, densely packed.

   Moreover, almost every course requires money to study.

   This is as it should be. Of course, you have to pay tuition fees to send your children to school, not to mention that this is an era when educational resources are relatively scarce. Su Mingan looked up and caught a glimpse of a course called [Elementary Military Science]. The duration of the course is one semester (half a year), and 200 Kerr is required! If you finish this course, there will be advanced courses of [Intermediate Military Science], [Advanced Military Science], and [Master Military Science], and the price will increase exponentially.

  An elementary course, 200 grams?

  —The detective's previous net worth was only 39 Kerr!

   And now not even 39 Kerr!

  Su Mingan turned his eyes back to his backpack interface, Kerr (money) showed 0. A bleak but real number.
