Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#64 - Wine barrels from the world of Stardew Valley

Unfortunately, barely half an hour after Liang Yue started driving, he encountered a common annoyance for car owners.

Traffic jam~!

Through the bright windshield, a seemingly endless stream of vehicles of various sizes and colors was jammed on the main road ahead, stretching to the horizon.

They only moved forward about ten meters every five or six minutes.

In this fast-paced international metropolis where efficiency is life, don't expect people to have much patience; making money is the city's main theme.

Sure enough, in no time, the piercing sounds of car horns had become a chorus on this congested road.

Some drivers with bad tempers were even sticking their heads out of the driver's seat, cursing and swearing incessantly.

Liang Yue, meanwhile, was leaning against the wide car seat, his arm resting on the door frame, looking sideways at the bus that was speeding along the dedicated lane next to him, unimpeded.

At the same time, as the thought entered his mind, the system screen appeared before his eyes.

...

《Observation》: A common skill in game-like dimensions. It can be successfully cast after consuming a certain amount of energy or mental power. The higher the skill level, the more detailed the information that can be observed.

Level: 2 / 10

Current Level: 2

Skill Proficiency: 4 / 300

ps: Everything can be observed, but in the current low-level state, it can only be used to view the physical state of people and objects, and vaguely detect a trace of abnormal reactions.

...

Liang Yue

Strength: 25

Agility: 38

Constitution: 26

Energy: 45

Talent: ...

...

After these past few days of persistent effort, the Observation skill had unsurprisingly reached level two last night before he fell asleep.

At the same time, after using the skill for some time, Liang Yue had somewhat summarized some operational experience regarding the skill.

That is, the increase in skill proficiency seems to be related to the object he observes.

If Liang Yue were still like before, randomly using the Observation skill on stones, iron ingots, and the weapons he personally made, just to fool around.

Then, in terms of skill proficiency, it would only increase by one point each time, symbolically.

Only when the observed targets are people or things that he was originally unfamiliar with will the use of Observation get a leap forward.

There is a multiple difference between the two, but each skill release consumes the same amount of mental power.

Based on Liang Yue's current energy attribute baseline, he can release Observation about thirty times a day.

Once this release amount is exceeded, this guy will immediately fall into a coma due to excessive mental power consumption.

As for whether this kind of mental damage will cause any harm to Liang Yue's body, he himself has not yet noticed.

Anyway, as long as he sleeps on the bed in MC, it will immediately recover the next day.

However, with the continuous consumption and recovery of his mental power in the past few days, it seems that Liang Yue's energy has been somewhat roughly trained.

As a result, his energy attribute has unknowingly increased by two points.

Incidentally, even his constitution has mysteriously increased by one point.

Simply~ amazing~!

"That's right~ Another three days have passed, the System Shop should be refreshed, right?"

With this thought in mind, Liang Yue immediately switched the screen in front of him to the System Shop interface.

It was still the familiar Chinese-style shop and simple counter layout.

Every time this guy calls out this shop interface, he can taste a vulgar Chinese web game flavor from it~

...

《Keg and Manufacturing Recipe》: Placing a fruit or vegetable in a keg will eventually ferment into a barrel of beverage. This item comes from the Stardew Valley world, and the manufacturing recipe has been improved by the system.

Selling price: 500 points

...

"500!? Could it be that this thing is better than the Rabbit's Foot? That's an item that can resist and accelerate! It only sells for 300!"

Looking at the inconspicuous keg on the virtual counter in front of him, and the piece of paper placed on the keg, Liang Yue immediately curled his lips and complained to the system.

However, after this guy calmed down, he slowly began to think about the deeper meaning.

First of all, the system will definitely not lie.

Although the keg in front of him looks ordinary, it is still a creation from the game world. Putting any kind of vegetable and fruit in it can ferment into wine and beverages.

Such an ability in itself is a heaven-defying attribute.

So, since the system has marked a selling price of a full five hundred points, then this item should definitely be worth the money, right?

"And~ the value of a thing cannot only focus on the present. Some ordinary ale and fruit wine are fine, but in the future, maybe I can use these kegs to brew spirit wine or something."

Thinking this way, Liang Yue's heart immediately became much lighter, and his gaze towards the keg began to become more and more pleasing.

"Bought it!"

With a bite of his teeth, the three thousand three hundred points in his wallet instantly became two thousand eight.

Liang Yue's storage space immediately appeared with the brown keg and the manufacturing recipe.

With a thought, the piece of paper recording the recipe immediately appeared in his hand.

"Yo ho~! This system is really fashionable enough, it can even draw pictures..."

Looking at the thing in his hand, Liang Yue immediately smiled, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved.

I saw that on this piece of paper at this time, there were neatly drawn thirty-six small squares, presenting a neat square arrangement.

Just this layout, Liang Yue almost didn't need to think to know that this was the thirty-six-grid toolbox he had newly upgraded.

And within these dense space grids, eight brown oak wood blocks were arranged in a "" shape at this moment, and in the middle of this wood, there were two iron ingots placed in it.

This is the complete manufacturing recipe that is said to have been transformed by the system.

If Liang Yue remembers correctly, the original recipe for this keg from the Stardew Valley world should require wood, copper ingots, iron ingots, and something like tree sap to make.

In an earlier version, even clay was needed.

Now that the system has changed it so much, it has completely integrated into the MC rules, which also facilitates Liang Yue's mass production.

"I remember a few days ago, the hops in the base seemed to have matured, but because I lacked brewing tools in my hand, I didn't pick them temporarily.

Now it's all alive, I'll try it when I get home."

"And, how do I remember that in the proper game, as long as you put hops in a keg, it seems that it only takes a whole day to turn into ale, right?

I don't know if this kind of keg still has the previous efficiency after being transformed by the system!"
