Because he was too excited, Sui Xiong spent most of an hour talking, and then calmed down.
Acaine responded at the beginning. Later, he just listened earnestly, and could no longer interpose; because he couldn’t understand Chinese.
Yes, when it came to the end, Sui had already lost control of excitement in his heart and spoke Chinese.
This kind of excitement naturally had its reason – how many years had he been away from his home, alone in this foreign place, making a living? He ate raw fish and drank cold water. He only saw strange men, and could not see the traces of his hometown. He could not find the slightest hope to return home, or even have a little thing that could carry his emotion!
But today, he finally found something that could carry his emotions and comfort his homesickness! And it was something he liked very much.
Games!
For him, a former game enthusiast, what could be better than the game that could comfort his homesickness?
Food? Don’t tease.Take a look at his current shape; what could he eat to get full? Not to mention that he was only a jellyfish now. He was thankful that he wouldn’t be used as a food for others.
Languages? Creating and promoting a language would cause much trouble for others! Let’s be honest! When he was a student, the most hated subject was mathematics, the second was physics, and the third was a foreign language!
He hated most subjects, including Chinese, chemistry, biology, geography, history, politics, sports, etc…. Besides music and fine art, he hated everything else!
He couldn’t bear to recall his past, and was separated from that period.
Sui Xiong once thought carefully; what methods should be used to place his own homesickness? Now he had finally found it!
So he was excited. He was so excited he was dancing, he was incoherent.
When he gradually calmed down, he began to seriously discuss the feasibility of this plan.
After some discussion, they finally determined that this plan was completely feasible!
“A playground with the theme of adventure and hunting? This is a very appropriate statement!” Acaine praised, admiringly, “Your adjectives have been used very well; and the name is too relevant! The place where people play is a ‘playground!’”
It was only then he realized that in this world, there seemed to be no such thing as a playground.
The civilians in this world lived hard lives. They worked all day and they couldn’t save much money. A family farmer worked hard for a year, and after paying taxes, and the necessary daily expenses were deducted, perhaps only one gold coin would be left. This also required him to encounter a relatively generous lord; otherwise, the rest could only be calculated by using silver coins.
Why were the pioneers still coming to the turbulent forest? It was because there was no lord here, and no tax was required.
It was the church that controlled the development of the village, and most of the church’s priests had little interest in worldly wealth. Good priests were keen to help others. Evil priests were keen to demonstrate majesty. All in all, it was to let the world understand that they believed in the greatness of the Gods. Then as long as they all came to believe, it was good.
As for money? What purpose did it serve? Even if you could eat it, it was not worth paying attention to for these devotees, who voluntarily came to the outbacks of the poor areas to publicize the glory of Gods.
Like the White-leaf Village that Sui had seen before, it seemed to him a terrible place. However, virtually every family could get one or two, or even three gold coins each year. This income level was similar to a middle-class family, compared with the average farmer household on the continent. Sui Xiong only saw the general landscape when playing games.
It was no wonder that even after the war with the Shadow Devil, when Rhode was recruiting pioneers, many people still signed up.
The civilians of this world were really suffering too much!
The civilians had a hard lives and the nobles weren’t much better off. They were rich, but their lives were still quite boring. Listening to the poets who occasionally passed by sing songs, holding parties at home, or hunting with servants were all the enjoyment of most nobles.
Under such circumstances, there was an endless stream of desolation in the aristocratic circles.
Sui Xiong had asked Steele, “You are beautiful and talented, and you are the inheritor of a lord. Why are you putting all your energy into having sex? Why don’t you use the energy you put into seducing men on learning governmental affairs?”
“Why?” asked Steele.
“This way, you can smoothly inherit the title!”

“After that?”
“You can take over as a female lord.”
“Then?”
“Make good governance and strive to make your own territory prosperous!”
“What about then?”
“And then, of course, you can enjoy life!”
“Finally; that’s what it is!” Steele laughed, “Geerteng City is shabby. If I want to enjoy life, I only need to have sex. Like what you said, the final thing for me is to be a good lord, but even then, I can only have enjoyment by having sex.”
Sui was shocked, and could not help but sigh. “You are so convincing that even I’m speechless…”
This was the life of nobles; and the entertainment of small traders and artisans was not as good as the nobles’. Often, they only spent what they earned in pubs, casinos, and brothels, gaining some insignificant pleasure.
Only places like Gars City would have entertainment venues such as theaters and circuses, allowing those with more spiritual needs to find satisfaction. For example, the wife of the late owner of Gars City was a female artist who was passionate about opera.
However, nothing more.
All in all, people in this world had a very poor spiritual life and lacked proper entertainment. If they could build a safer playground, it was believed that there would be a large number of people with money and spiritual emptiness rushing in and spending here.
Sui Xiong even conceived a lot of facilities for playgrounds, from relaxing spas and massages to music halls and libraries, and pubs that let people boast. He put forward the various entertainment facilities in his own impression, one by one, and he and Acaine carefully discussed their feasibility. Eventually, they finalized a huge plan.
“It’s a great design!” Acaine couldn’t help but praise. A few days later, when passionate discussions came to an end and they looked at the huge model made by Sui’s tactics, Acaine was impressed. “This city is bound to become the world center of entertainment! And you will certainly become the God of Entertainment in this world!”
Sui Xiong laughed three times, proudly.
“God of Entertainment? Oh! This title is for me. I am very satisfied!”
After completing the design, Acaine continued to research and improve the mushrooms. As the foundation of the future city of entertainment, his mushrooms were of great importance, and needed further improvement.
However, Sui Xiong mobilized his body and flew to the largest of the locations Frost and Graupel found to be suitable for the construction of the town, and slowly landed.
“Do it by myself, and I will have a lot of harvests.” He smiled to himself and started to dig. Idleness led to nothing, so he decided to dig out the planned underground city.
It was surprisingly cold here, and the deeper he went, the more intense negative the energy was. Therefore, it was not easy to build a large underground city on his own.
Sui Xiong was not a person who cared about superficial prestige. If he thought it was necessary, he would sweep the streets. What was more, this was building his ideal city of entertainment. Doing it on his own not only did no harm to his prestige, but instead gave him a sense of achievement in his construction.
Seeing that the earth was being dug away little by little, and the deep underground was excavated into a huge maze, he was feeling full with satisfaction, and his mood was getting better and better.
He had never understood before why people would spend months building virtual castles in games.
Now he understood! The feeling of building a city was really amazing!
He worked in the dark underground, digging the earth and creating a huge space. Then he used spells to reinforce the walls and columns to ensure they did not collapse.
After completing the basic structure, he added various things to this space. For example, at the center of the maze, the walls would make every explorer dizzy, and give a sense of infinite exploration in a limited space. As for water and fire, the former could enhance liveliness and provide drinking water for the monsters living here, while the latter could provide lighting and enhance the atmosphere of adventure.
Besides, he would also create a large variety of rocks and sculptures, through which he formed a truly cultural atmosphere that allowed every adventurer to actually feel that this maze was not a crude basement, but the foundation of a large cultural system.
His ideas were more and more complex, and more and more places needed to be designed and modified. Almost every day, he had new ideas. After he reviewed, many of them were put into practice by him and became part of this huge underground city.
He would have be building this way until the entire city was completely built. But during the autumn harvest, his work was interrupted.
Ray invited him to go to Gars City, to participate in the revival celebration.
