Chapter 4: Comic Studio

Chapter 4 Comic Studio

Edited by Esperanza,

It turned out that cutting trees was not an easy task. Although he understood that he needed to aim the axe at the same place, the axe always landed on the tree trunk slantingly. There were a few times that he didn’t even hit the tree and almost threw the axe. Even if he hit the place he aimed for, the impact force was no joke. In the beginning, it was all right. After chopping at the tree a few times, the palm of his hands became red and swollen.

The old village chief constantly shook his head while looking at Zhou Yu. Kids from the city were indeed very weak. Just a little tree would make him grimace. If the kids from the old days were as useless as him, a brutal beating was bound to happen once they returned home. But fortunately, the kid seemed to be fine. Otherwise, he really did not know how to explain it to Zhou Hong. Although he had promised to take care of the kid, he didn’t know the kid had a mental problem. Though it wasn’t his problem, he still felt sorry for Zhou Yu's parents.

After chopping the tree for a while, Zhou Yu finally got the tree down, but it was not over yet. He had to dig the roots out as well. Luckily, the old village chief also came to help him, sharing a large part of the work. He eventually held on till the end.

The entire morning just passed away like that, and Zhou Yu, who had never done such heavy work, was laying on the ground, panting. He couldn’t get up for a long time. The old village chief shook his head again, then he went to put the tree on the back of a tricycle alone. Only until Zhou Yu finally regained his strength did he help to push the tricycle back to the village.

Originally he wanted to give some money to the old village chief, however, the old village chief insisted that he did not want it. Before he left with his empty tricycle, he reminded Zhou Yu once again that if he wanted to cut any trees next time, come look for him, he also needed some people to help him to sort out his fruit forest.

Next time? Having done it just once, it already made him feel like he had lost half of his HP. If he needed to do it a few more times, he needed to at least prepare a healer in his team.

After removing all the branches of the pine tree, Zhou Yu thought that he needed to at least dry the tree trunk before he could use it as raw materials. However, the carpenter beaver did not think so. It just directly handed Zhou Yu an "ordinary saw" and asked him to follow its instructions to cut the tree trunk with the saw.

The section that was cut off had a two-dimensional text floating above it: "the rough material of a chessboard," And what was strange about it, was that the material was already dried and ready to be used.

Then, the carpenter beaver suddenly "transformed". Zhou Yu did not know where it got a set of luxurious and flashy equipment. It almost blinded his eyes. "Luban's titanium alloy saw", "Luban's heavenly silk and red sandalwood chalk line", "Luban's white jade ruler"... A full set of God-Level Luban suits. It made Zhou Yu's mouth water!

'Kill it and Loot its stuff!'

A few words instantly flashed in his mind for a moment, and it took him a lot of effort to suppress this impulse. 'I am from the good faction, this impulse is the devil...'

There were only two NPCs in his village, if he killed one, how was he going to carry on playing? Not to mention that he might not be able to kill it. Moreover, he was still hoping to get more quests from this NPC every day, he might be even rewarded with some loot boxes from this beaver.

The God-level carpenter was not a joke, a mini chessboard was completed in less than half an hour. Throughout the entire making process, Zhou Yu had been watching on the side. It was simply astonishing. What amazed him was not only the speed but also the two different scenes he saw when he had his glasses on and without his glasses.

Through the eyes of the ACG world, he saw the carpenter beaver making the chessboard at an incredible speed. But through the eyes of the real world, he saw countless sawdust just come off the piece of wood automatically and fly everywhere in the air, until the piece of wood gradually became a chessboard that had many pieces on it.

After the chessboard was finished, the carpenter beaver was holding the chess pieces in its hands, trying to get a good feel for them, but through the eyes of the real world, he could not see the pieces moving, they were just lying in the box.

It was actually better this way. He did not need to worry about being seen by other people when they play chess. Otherwise, it would only freak people out.

After the chessboard was built, the beaver's carpenter's heart was on fire. It probably hasn't built anything for many years, its passion suddenly erupted like a volcano. It intended to continue to build a pavilion for playing chess. Originally, the pavilion was intended to be placed on a small pond, but the small pond did not have any water inside, so it could only be temporarily placed under the banyan tree.

Zhou Yu had no choice but to complete this additional task together.

This mini pavilion was about half a meter high. It was a relatively large building. This time, the beaver only made all the parts of the pavilion and then asked Zhou Yu - the 'giant' to help assemble it.

The parts were very delicate, and it required a certain amount of patience to assemble them. However, this was not a problem for Zhou Yu, as he had been playing with all kinds of Garage Model Kits for a very long time. Soon, an antique-flavored pavilion was assembled from scratch, including tables and chairs.

"In battle, victory or defeat attend every move."

"Where’er you may go, know that gains and losses will follow."

Those were the couplets that were written on the pillars of the pavilion.

And above the two vigorous and forceful couplets, it was also written: 'The Pavilion of Wind and Rain.'

After the completion of the pavilion, the beaver also urged Zhou Yu to sort out the small pond as soon as possible. By that time, it would make a pier to connect to the pavilion in the middle of the pond, then, it would be able to enjoy the fun of playing chess in the middle of the pond.

'Hmm... This may take a bit of time...' Zhou Yu was speechless.

Upon completing the beaver's quest, Zhou Yu also got an ordinary axe, an ordinary saw, and 135 Moe Coins. Compared to the quest given by the old Dragon King yesterday, it was a lot more generous, but the quest process was also more arduous. After working for a while, he felt like he was drained out.

And in terms of those Moe Coins, should it be used on the Gashapon machine, or should it be saved until he had enough to buy something from the vending machine? Look at the description of each box in the vending machine, Zhou Yu's mouth began to drool.

Comic Studio (1000 Moe Coins), Animation Base (1500 Moe Coins), Game Company (2000 Moe Coins)...

The most important three areas of the ACG world were all covered. Although he didn't know what those buildings would look like, and whether or not they would really produce anime or games, if they really could, then... Damn, he would be willing to be single for the rest of his life.

However, it was too expensive... Even the cheapest item - the comic studio, also needed him to save his Moe Coins for several days, not to mention that those two elderly people might not give him any quests tomorrow.

Alas, nevermind, it was still more 'realistic' to try the Gashapon machine. Unleashing the hand of a miracle six times in a row, how filthy rich was that.

The Seed Of The Red Sandalwood Tree, The Seed Of Pseudotsuga Sinensis, Copper OreX4, Fan Li's Maplewood Fishing Rod, Farmer's Hut (Temporary), Comic Studio (High-Quality Magical Imitation).

When the last one came out, Zhou Yu shouted out loudly and happily. He did not even care that he might scare the neighbors. Having only spent 20 Moe Coins, he received something that was worth 1000 Moe Coins. He was so excited that he did not even see the special note in the brackets.

Leaving other things aside first, he put the Comic Studio on the bed and looked at it carefully.

The house was very pretty. Looking inside the house through the windows, It looked like a real comic studio, however, he did not see any manga artists. There was an activate button on the roof, it seemed like it would officially start working if he pressed it. So he pressed it immediately without thinking.

A strange laugh suddenly appeared unexpectedly, and then a clown-like little man appeared in front of him, "Welcome to the imitation show of the geek of thousands of faces, please specify an artist, I can completely imitate his comic style."

'Hmm... What is this shit?'

Only until this moment did Zhou Yu noticed the text in the brackets, "High-Quality Magical Imitation"

'What imitation, isn't it a copycat?"

Comic Studio (High-Quality Magical Imitation): Specify a real-world manga artist, the magician would use the artist's style and skill to complete a new work that is no less than 300 chapters or continue an existing work, similarly, it will not be less than 300 chapters as well. Special notice, the produced work is fan-based content and should not be used for any commercial purposes. If this term is violated, the building will self-destruct immediately.

After reading the attached instruction manual, Zhou Yu's lips twitched slightly and uncontrollably.
