Chapter 113: Chapter 35: New and Old Users Meet_2

If any player knows how to do this and can get the design drawings, they could start working at any electric car company today or happily receive a pair of silver bracelets.

"Talking about this now is pointless." Egyptian Beauty shook her head, "The BOSS wants a product that can sell in the market, but do you even know what the market in this game looks like? Right now, the map is still limited to the Junk Mountain and Stone Ridge Mountain Towns, and one Adcardo Camp. We don’t even have anywhere to investigate, so how are we supposed to make something?"

"No one will give you an unfinishable main quest unless the game designer is doing nothing." At this moment, Jianxue, who had been silent, spoke up, "In such cases, clues for the main quest are often hidden in side quests or some corners of the game. Maybe this is the game company’s way of testing us."

"Testing?" Everyone was startled.

"Yes, testing." Jianxue, holding a long wooden stick he found from somewhere, spoke with an overly pretentious demeanor, his shoulder-length hair adding to the effect. "I pre-registered on the official website early, not sure if you noticed, but most of the outer layer of this office is something we players built. The degree of freedom is undeniably high."

"But the things we’ve made so far aren’t very technical, just like the redstone technology in MC. Various modules and redstone building systems were developed and created by the players themselves. Perhaps the Horizon game company wants to use this opportunity to see our creativity before deciding on future development directions."

"And whether there’s a market or not is ultimately decided by the game developers, right? It’s just a few lines of data for them. They haven’t even set up the city system, and there aren’t many NPCs, so where’s the market for you to research?"

"Hey!" Rainy Night Without a Knife suddenly brightened up, grabbing Egyptian Beauty’s arm, and said, "Maybe the issue you found with the water earlier is a clue. Didn’t you study water supply and drainage? Can you design a water purifier? It might have competitive potential."

"I advise you all to give up on this idea." Egyptian Beauty shook her head, "You may not have kept up with the news from the United States. Unclean water is a common issue, mainly due to pipe aging and high purification costs. The weak grassroots control makes it hard to enforce policies, but they have been working on advanced home water purifiers. Since Night City is set in California, it should be a similar situation unless we build a large water purification station; otherwise, it’s hopeless."

Egyptian Beauty’s words took a hit at the players’ enthusiasm, but they quickly started throwing out one harebrained idea after another.

"How about a mortar? Or a grenade launcher?"

"Stop bringing out lame outdated stuff from the last century."

"Electrothermal chemical rifle?"

"If you can make it, the National University of Defense Technology would invite you to be a professor."

"Smart artificial vagina?"

"I fear your mold isn’t as good as someone’s prosthetic."

"Not necessarily."

"You’re acting weird..."

After Natural Curl left the office with five little players, the remaining six were still intensely busy.

Even though there was an old player staying back, upon seeing Pandora’s naturally pure eyes, they gave up the idea of asking her.

Instead, it was Mantou who, after teasing Pandora a bit until he attracted some hostility, stopped, and when he saw that multifunctional handmade table and press, his eyes lit up. With Lin Miao’s permission, he tried it for half an hour and got the hang of it.

Directly using the compound crossbow design that Brother Ni left behind, Mantou completed Brother Ni’s unfinished piece. The finished product even looked better in the finer details than the one Brother Ni used yesterday, astounding the other players.

Mantou was vastly different from the women they usually saw, who struggled even to unscrew a bottle cap.

A veteran Bandai victim among them couldn’t help but ask,

"Sis, what do you do for work that you’re this skilled?"

"Mechanical engineering, unusual, right?" Mantou flexed her biceps in front of them. This body was even stronger than her real-life body, no wonder she could punch that dead-eyed guy down.

The players were shocked!

A woman in mechanical engineering... that’s a rarity, always surrounded by admirers. Never mind mastering hands-on work; even someone to help write papers wasn’t uncommon, but one like Mantou, handling a welding gun, a wrench, and working diligently was like a rare national treasure.

....

The Heads logged in at around six in the evening.

"Hey... damn it, Potato, how did your face change?"

Giant, crawling out of the transformation pod, looked bewilderedly at the person next to him. Although the other’s head still bore the name ’Potato Without a Neck’, his size and height hadn’t changed, but his face was noticeably different, with a higher nose bridge and thicker lips.

"So did you! Why just talk about me?"

Seven veteran players who had just logged in looked around at each other and found that everyone had changed slightly in appearance.

Brother Ni thought for a moment, looked at everyone, and said, "I understand now."

Everyone gave him a look that said ’you understand again’, then listened to Brother Ni’s storytelling.

"Do you remember that journal we found in the basement last time?"

"It said that the BOSS and we are all artificial humans, and since there’s no face customization option when logging in, it means our appearance is randomly generated. When one dies, the resurrected body is also randomly generated, so looking a bit different isn’t normal?"
