Old days in the box

Chapter 9 I'm Fast
While the little people on the screen were busy working, Zhou Xiao also quickly made some food in the real world.

After watching the whole day, he realized that he had been in front of the screen for a long time without realizing it, and then he realized that he was very hungry.

After eating, he typed a resignation letter and sent it to his boss's mailbox. This was considered a violent resignation.

In the past, Zhou Xiao would arrive at the company at seven o'clock every day. He was so busy that he didn't get home until nine or ten o'clock in the evening.

Now that I suddenly have the freedom to not go to work, I feel a little uncomfortable.

He ordered a takeaway on his phone and checked his balance at the same time.

Zhou Xiao currently has a deposit of 8650 yuan left on hand, which is all his belongings.

It may seem like a lot, but in reality, the amount of rent, water, electricity, food, and toiletries cannot last long.

In the days to come, it will depend on whether these little people on the screen can do their best.

Zhou Xiao quickly got the takeout and let the little people on the screen move about on their own while eating.

Anyway, there are now four Peashooters, two Nut Walls and a Corn Cannon at the entrance of the village, and he is not afraid of anyone sneaking up from the fog of war.

After cleaning up the village, Freya quickly reorganized the location of Haiding Village.

On the premise of maintaining the original village entrance, she extended the entire village to the base of the giant tree, which is equivalent to expanding nearly one-third of the space of Haiding Village in one breath.

The fishermen in the village all moved back and rebuilt wooden houses and fishing frames under the World Tree.

This operation is very clever. It is equivalent to separating the entrance of the village, which is guarded by many miracles, from the fishermen, leaving a buffer zone in the middle.

In this way, even if there is another conflict in the future, it will not affect the villagers immediately, and they can advance, attack, retreat or defend.

The repeated operations of this little girl made Zhou Xiao extremely happy.

It's like watching a three-star auto chess piece that automatically turns the field around.

"This Freya really has a tactical mind. Is she really a genius?" Zhou Xiao was very pleased.

Having such smart people in it can save him a lot of effort.

After all, although he has great power outside the screen and can give him whatever he wants, it is the little people on the screen who ultimately decide how to use these things.

After all, he can't squat in front of the screen 24 hours a day and teach them step by step, so there must be a reliable leader among them.

They can't quite understand the words, but at least they can understand the simple drawings, right?
Zhou Xiao soon had enough to eat and drink, and had a sudden thought while drinking Coke.

Didn’t archeology now find that primitive people had murals?

Primitive people lacked effective means of communication, so they often used murals to express where there was prey and where hunting was needed.

That is to say, even very primitive humans can exchange information through pictures.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xiao immediately opened the drawing software on the desktop.

He zoomed in to the maximum angle of view and traced the outline of the coast as much as possible against the window.

Then I pulled a red arrow in the drawing tool, starting from Haiding Village and pointing in other directions.

Wait, where should they be instructed to go?

Zhou Xiao hovered the mouse and looked back at the world in the window.

According to the current view, the coast where Haiding Village is located is just a remote corner of the continent, an insignificant little tail.

This place is almost cut off by mountains above, while below it faces the vast sea.

In other words, there are only two paths to the mountains and to the sea.

Zhou Xiao thought for a moment and concluded that the threat from Xiangshan was certain. It was known that there was an inland kingdom. The level of technology in it was uncertain, but it was at least much more advanced than Haiding Village and already had iron-making technology.

But if it's towards the sea, everything will be unpredictable.

Although in theory, Zhou Xiao can drag several cruisers and submarines in.

But if you drag this kind of steel behemoth in, it is a question whether they can drive it, and that world may not have petroleum energy.Moreover, when exploring the ocean, you may encounter a new continent after just two steps, or you may not see anything for a year and a half, or you may even encounter a sea monster. These are all uncertain.

Zhou Xiao didn't hesitate for too long, and quickly decided to let them explore the other side of the mountain first.

After all, this was the first time he had explored his horizons, and it was safest to start on land.

Players with experience in strategy games know that there are certain risks in opening up your field of vision.

Let the little people expand their horizons on land. If something happens, Zhou Xiao can come to the rescue at any time outside the screen.

But if something unexpected happens at sea, it may not be too late.

Exploring the sea requires a certain solid foundation before you can do it.

Zhou Xiao pointed the red arrow in the picture in the direction of the mountain and saved it to the desktop.

Then he returned to the window and looked for Freya.

"Little man, little man, where are you?" Zhou Xiao dragged the camera to search the village, and soon found that Freya had returned to her cabin.

So he continued to zoom in and approach the ground.

This window is the same as many third-person perspective games. When the perspective is widened enough, obstructions such as buildings will be blurred.

With the zoom in, the perspective of the window quickly broke through the obstruction of the cabin and saw the scene inside.

"Why do I feel like I'm spying on others... No, no, I'm doing business!" Zhou Xiao convinced himself.

The cabin is very simple, after all, people in this ancient era don't have much daily necessities.

Lying across the room was the giant piece of paper that Zhou Xiao had just thrown in. It was moved here by the fishermen so that Freya could interpret the words on it at any time.

As for Freya herself, she was changing clothes in the house.

Huh?
Wait, there seems to be something disharmonious suddenly mixed in here...

Zhou Xiao became a little embarrassed, but the girl in the perspective obviously didn't realize that someone was openly peeping at her, and she continued her actions.

"Wait a minute, don't change! I'll be quick..."

Zhou Xiao quickly dragged the drawing file from the desktop and looked for a suitable place to place it.

He didn't want to suddenly smash down a giant blueprint and smash Freya's cabin to pieces.

But Freya's half-elf-like fair skin really made it difficult for him to concentrate.

In the confusion, Zhou Xiao suddenly discovered that this drawing file could be overlaid on the text document.

When the two overlap, a highlight prompt of the system stroke appears.

"Huh? Can files overlap? Can it also overlap with Peashooter?" Zhou Xiao was curious and finally looked away from Freya.

He re-zoomed the perspective and dragged the drawing file onto the peashooter at the entrance of the village, but this time the overwriting prompt did not appear.

I understand, because the text document itself can insert pictures and text, so the above content can be overlapped.

Zhou Xiao quickly figured out what was going on.

"Now that you can insert pictures, it will be much easier." So he returned to the cabin again and overlaid the drawing file onto the huge text document.

In the window, inside Freya's cabin.

Freya had just changed out of her blood-stained clothes when she suddenly felt a slight vibration coming from under her feet.

Amidst the shock, an incredible scene appeared.

Under her gaze, all the words written on the giant piece of paper lying across her room were erased out of thin air and disappeared.

Instead, a sculptural picture gradually emerged, as if guided by a god.
