"Take a deep breath and exhale slowly."

"Don't draw the bow string too full, and gently touch the tiger's mouth to the cheek."

"The arrow remains level."

"Aim with your eyes through the tip of the arrow, keep your line of sight in line with the tip of the arrow, and aim below the target."

"The fingers were released quickly, as if one's head was broken."

"boom--"

As soon as the voice fell, an arrow shot out from the string and penetrated directly into the body of the distant Snow Elephant Rabbit.

Blood spattered, and the snow velvet rabbit was nailed to the ground before it had time to react, and the bright red blood soaked the snow.

"pretty!"

Qin Chuan clapped excitedly, even happier than he himself had shot the prey.

Wig, who was holding a bow and arrow, couldn't wait for a second. She turned over and climbed out of the snow nest, heading straight for the snow velvet rabbit she had shot.

"Come on, come on, come on! I've hit the target! This is so awesome, you can kill him with one arrow!"

The other people lying in the snow nest also walked out and gathered around the wig, praising her one by one.

I have to say that this is indeed a huge improvement, because starting from the first prey that was hit by the fake shot, everyone in the entire player team has become addicted.

In the past few days, Qin Chuan conducted surprise training for everyone, striving to equip everyone with combat effectiveness so that they could reserve food for the institute with the highest efficiency.

The effect of this is very obvious - after all, archery itself is not too difficult. As long as there is enough time to practice, most people can basically get through the entry period quickly.

Maybe everyone is not accurate enough, but that doesn't matter.

Because Chen Jiu is here, they don't have to worry about finding prey.

There are targets everywhere, wild animals that have been fattened to survive the ice wave. If you miss one, just go straight to the next one.

With the advantages of "vision" and "map", their ambush efficiency is extremely high. Most of the time, arrows have already been shot before the prey has discovered them.

In just three days, they hunted not only velvet rabbits, roe deer, and wild boars, but also a black bear that had been hibernating for the winter.

Although the total number is not too many, most of these are large game animals, providing an astonishing amount of meat and fat.

——

Of course, this doesn't come without a price.

While hunting the black bear, the entire team was almost wiped out. In the end, Chen Jiu, who was the sixth man, chased the black bear for nearly two kilometers with the advantage of his vision, and finally killed it with one arrow after another.

"There are a little few prey today, do you want to find some big ones to hunt?"

Qin Chuan ignored the excitedly peeling wig and turned to Chen Jiu to ask.

In fact, at this time, Chen Jiu had indeed seen the life activity signal not far away from the administrator interface. Judging from Shuanghe's label, it should be another black bear.

If it can be hunted down, it can become food for the "refugees" in Xiahe Village for several days or even ten days.

However, he does not plan to take Qin Chuan to hunt black bears now, because he already has a new idea.

"I do smell a black bear. It's the same as last time. It should be not far away."

"But are we really going to hunt black bears?"

"Why not?"

Qin Chuan asked doubtfully.

Although he has been playing the hunting simulator for several days, his addiction has not subsided at all.

Whenever Chen Jiuyi said there was a big prey nearby, Qin Chuan was the first to get excited, and obviously, today was no exception.

This makes Chen Jiu very satisfied, because it shows that his game design is very successful and the players' experience is very high.

However, playing hunting simulator all the time is not enough.

Pretending to think for a moment, he said:

"You can fight black bears, but I don't think it's necessary right now."

"What's wrong? Why?"

Not only Qin Chuan, but after hearing this, Wig and Chong Niang also stopped what they were doing and looked at Chen Jiu in confusion.

The latter frowned slightly and explained:

"I have studied the overall logic of this branch plot in the past two days and discovered a problem."

"Obviously, the purpose of this branch line is to allow us to win over these disaster victims and make them our labor force."

"However, the way to achieve the task is not fixed."

"The most normal way is definitely for us to provide food for free, just like other games, using food in exchange for favorability."

"If we use work-for-relief measures, it's a small bug in the trading system. Theoretically speaking, the effect should be good."

"But I have observed it over the past two days. In fact, the favorability generated by the transaction has a marginal effect - to put it bluntly, when we exchanged food for wood on the first day, they were very grateful."

"But in the future, they will take it for granted."

"I personally feel that the favorability design of this game is not as simple as we thought at the beginning. It has the concept of 'retention period'."

Hearing this, Qin Chuan's heart skipped a beat.

Yes, this is a very real problem.

Cash-for-work is indeed the best way to retain people in the short term, but the problem is that this is an almost completely real game!

The so-called favorability system is not as simple as other games at all. It does not have an accurate numerical display at all. Instead, just like in reality, it is the value judgment of each independent NPC.

This means that it will change at any time, and will decay quickly if not maintained properly.

Even in the end, if these disaster victims have saved enough food, they will definitely break away from the control of the institute and return directly to Xiahe Village.

If that were the case, he would have lost both his wife and his troops.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Qin Chuan asked immediately.

According to his idea, the simplest solution to this problem is to lower the purchase price of wood so that the victims will always be in a state of "not having enough to eat."

But in this way, it is difficult to maintain the balance. If it is not done well, they will rebel.

"I think it's better to show kindness than to show power!"

"Since this game has a favorability system, it must have a prestige system. We should do something to show off our muscles in front of them!"

Chen Jiu replied firmly.

Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan reacted immediately.

This is indeed a solution - and, just like what Chen Jiu said, prestige and favorability are inherently similar systems.

How can there be only favorability in a game but no prestige?

His expression instantly became excited.

New system, new bugs!

Now it was Chen Jiu's turn to feel anxious.

Can he still not know what Qin Chuan wants to do?

The purpose of my guidance is very clear, but I am afraid that Qin Chuan will get a bug!

What's the best way to build prestige?

Kill people!

If he really planned to kill someone to establish his authority, would he have blocked his account?

This is the help Shuanghe finally found from the real world.

But soon, Qin Chuan's next words dispelled his worries.

"Yes, I think so too!"

"We are now providers of food, but we should do more than just provide food, we must also provide a sense of security."

"On the red ground, no, in the Ten Thousand Cave Forest, what is their biggest insecurity? Besides the weather, it is the threat of wild beasts."

"So, as long as we solve this problem, our prestige will be established."

"It can be inferred from this that we should not just kill such gadgets, not even black bears. If we want to kill them, we should kill the tigers in the mountains!"

"They are afraid of tigers. If we kill tigers, our prestige can't be increased directly to the point of explosion?"

"This must be a bug. The prestige system has not been unlocked yet, but we can use it in advance!"

Good guy, after going around and around, I actually ended up hunting.

Are you addicted to playing hunting simulator?

Chen Jiu complained secretly in his heart. In fact, the reason why he did this was mainly because these players were too tolerant of NPCs, and he planned to use game mechanics to help them build prestige.

His original intention is to guide these players to actively communicate with "NPCs", proactively discover problems, formulate rules, and establish order.

But it seems that Qin Chuan's method is not impossible?

Moreover, it is even simpler and more effective!

Thinking of this, he said decisively:

"Brother Chuan is right!"

"That's how it should be done"

"This is definitely a bug, we need to use it quickly!"
