Life as a Landlord in Global Games

Chapter 27 Surprise and Dolphins

Apartment, restaurant...

Jiang Ke sat there alone, muttering to himself.

"It's been five days... I haven't come back yet."

Her expression was calm, even a little numb, and her eyes were full of loneliness that she couldn't go out to play.

Like an empty nester.

On her left hand was the Xiyue shell that had been opened once more, and on her right was the thing that had been opened.

This time, because she didn’t want to eat the fruit no matter what, the thing she was prescribed was quite abstract————

[a fragment]

【Orange·Garbage】

[A fragment on a certain building is brilliant and beautiful, but it has lost all its power]

[PS: Not bad as a decoration]

"Orange trash, no one is so lucky."

Jiang Ke stared at it again and again, then took it in his hand and tossed it.

The brilliant spar plate flashed a glaze-colored luster in the air, which lingered for a long time.

It looks really beautiful... this shape can be used as a night light if hung on the wall of the room.

"The things you gave me are all so beautiful, but they are all so strange."

Jiang Ke stretched out his hand and tapped the Xiyue shell with his fingers, making a crisp sound.

"Oh, it's so boring."

After everyone in the apartment went out on adventures, she was accompanied by Xiaolan and the two "preparatory dependents" who had almost completed her transformation.

But later Xiaolan told her that she had to sleep for a few days to complete the transformation. Then she went directly to sleep under the tree in the nursery, leaving her alone in the entire apartment.

Normally I don't find it boring to stay at home, but this time there was no one to talk to, and it became very boring.

"I don't know when they will come back, but I spent a lot of money preparing surprises..."

Jiang Ke muttered and threw the shells and crystal stones into her room inside the portal, then picked up the steamed buns on the table.

She gently broke open the steamed buns. Then she took off the sizzling meat on the surface and put it into the steamed buns.

After pressing it harder, I took a big bite with satisfaction.

The sweetness of the wheat and the saltiness and spiciness of the barbecue are perfectly blended together. The fat on the meat skewers is a bonus. It doesn't taste greasy, but is full of flavor.

Ordinary steamed buns become delicious after such a simple process.

After eating the steamed buns in big mouthfuls, I drank the sweet rice porridge in small sips.

After drinking, he picked up the bowl and chopsticks, put them into the cutlery recycling port, and finally got a glass of peach juice.

A bowl of porridge, a steamed bun and barbecue, and a few glasses of peach juice after the meal.

This is Jiang Ke’s simple dinner today.

Although it was simple, she was still quite satisfied with the meal.

"If you continue like this, you will definitely gain weight. Why can't the fat go where it should go?"

Putting down the peach juice, Jiang Ke touched her increasingly rounded belly with some worry. She felt that she had gained three or four kilograms more than before the apocalypse.

Exercise is obviously a must!

Jiang Ke clenched his fists and stood up suddenly. But just as he was about to reach out to open the door, he suddenly hesitated and sat down again.

It’s not appropriate to exercise strenuously just after eating. It’s better to wait until after you’ve digested your food!

She leaned back with peace of mind and raised her head to look at the sky with contentment.

It was a blue sky so clear and clear that there was not a single cloud or trace of dirt. It was so close that it seemed that you could touch it - in fact, it was indeed within reach.

As long as you stand on the chair, you can touch the ceiling.

This is the surprise she plans to give everyone.

A new restaurant!

She had previously asked everyone for their opinions on the restaurant environment, but she never had time to do so.

Now that I have some free time, I just want to do it. Although there are many opinions, in the final analysis, there are only three needs.

The first is a big round table where everyone can gather for dinner, which can be accomplished easily.

The second is a separate dining area and a place where two or three people can eat together. This is not difficult at all, just divide it with things.

The last thing is comfort...

Almost everyone, including Jiang Ke himself, couldn't bear the wooden chair that was sitting on the buttocks.

All three are not too difficult.

There were so many types of materials and furniture that she had never seen before, which also gave her enough room to choose.

It was just the money she spent that made her a little heartbroken... What made her especially heartbroken was the [Space Extension Module LV1] which took up a large portion of a thousand gold coins.

There is really no way not to buy this, because the original space is too small.

In addition, they wanted to do it all at once, and they all happened to go out, so there was a surprise when they came back.

This shows that the all-powerful landlord is not just sitting around doing nothing these days.

So she gritted her teeth and bought it.

But looking at the final effect, it's obviously worth the money -——

First of all, there is naturally a large round table and comfortable chairs where you can sit around and eat together.

It is placed on the left side of the restaurant, separated by a green ornamental bamboo wall. This high-priced bamboo is described as having many health-preserving and sound-absorbing effects...

Jiang Ke didn't know the details, but the apartment probably wouldn't lie to a person like her who had little education.

The internal size is also enough for everyone in the apartment to gather together and have a lively meal.

Secondly, there are also separate dining spaces and small spaces enough for three or four people to eat together.

The partitions used in both are the same style of landscape walls.

This wall, which also sells for a lot of money, looks like a silver metallic texture on the outside, but the scenery can be changed at will on the inside.

Grasslands, mountains, forests, lakes... and even underwater scenery can be perfectly presented.

It is worth mentioning that this material is also used on the walls of the restaurant, but the name is changed to landscape wallpaper.

The price has not changed at all.

As expected, the store is a big rip-off.

The much-criticized wooden stool was also replaced by Jiang Ke with something called a "self-adjusting sofa".

Jiang Ke tried to sit down.

When you lie back and want to lean back more comfortably, it will become extremely soft and have a massage function. When you want to sit up straight and want to eat, it will automatically adjust so that you will not feel unable to sit because it is too soft.

Just uncomfortable.

As expected, the price is neither high nor low.

If Jiang Ke was allowed to do so many designs by himself, he would probably kill someone.

So when she saw that the apartment also had the option of [automatic design], she bought it without hesitation.

So I was defrauded out of money again.

But the overall view is not bad, after all, the moving line design and layout design are really excellent.

The space does not appear too empty, nor does it appear too messy and small. The circulation design is also almost perfect, and there will be no detours wherever you want to go.

After such a transformation, although the name is still a restaurant, it has actually become a multi-functional hall that integrates functions such as dining, chatting, leisure, and relaxation.

Admiring the beautiful scenery, Jiang Ke drank three glasses of juice before standing up.

She planned to open the door and take a look at [Small Fishing Sea], which she had never been to before.

The door handle first formed in her palm, and then the entire door. As she exerted force, there was a "click" and the door was pushed open.

A salty and humid sea breeze unique to the ocean blew in my face.

Jiang Ke, who wanted to take a step forward, suddenly stopped abruptly.

She stared at her feet, then carefully lifted the door frame and looked outside.

What you see is a blue sea, with turbulent waves and colorful clouds flowing out under the hot sunshine, making the waves sparkle.

Looking into the distance, all that can be seen is the chaotic sea of clouds formed by the blending of the sky and the sea, which is vast and magnificent.

It's just that... there is no place on the ground or island to stay.

There is no doubt that although Jiang Ke saw no fish or seaweed through the clear water, if he dared to go in, he would immediately fall in with a "plop".

Even if you can swim in such a place with no focus at all, you are looking for death.

"Isn't the apartment broken down? How could a place like this be created to deceive people?"

Jiang Ke couldn't help but said.

But before he finished speaking, he heard a voice——

"Tweet~"

A rather strange sound came from a distance, sounding like the so-called dolphin sound.

She looked towards the place where the sound came from, and saw several pink dorsal fins breaking through the waves.

Then they all floated up when they got close to her.

The iconic raised round forehead and not too long beak prove their identity——

【Pink Dolphin】

[Miracle Creation Seed·Sea Spirit]

[Explanation: The native species in Xiaoyuhai, with their water control skills and extremely high IQ, they will be your best helpers]

A guy who was obviously bigger than the other dolphins swam in front of Jiang Ke.

It slapped the water with its short hands (pectoral fins).

"Tweet~"

"You want me to stand up?"

The dolphin nodded.

Jiang Ke hesitated for a moment and chose to believe it. He raised his feet and stood up.

This feels amazing.

If I have to describe the feeling of stepping on it...it's like that kind of inflatable trampoline. It may be a bit uncomfortable to step on it at first, but it's quite fun after you get used to it.

And after she completely stepped into the confines of Xiaoyuhai, the portal disappeared.

The information box also arrived as promised.

【Little Fishing Sea】

[Current breedable species: 5/50]

[Currently owned sea creatures: pink dolphin, condensed pearl oyster, moon coral, pearl arowana, mercury carp]

[3~6 types of sea creatures are added every seventy-two hours. When the sea creatures reach the feeding limit, they will no longer be added. Unnecessary sea creatures can be removed through pink dolphins]

[Currently there is a 5% probability of obtaining a special species]

[The growth rate of all sea creatures increases by 30%]

"Leave it to pink dolphins to clean up? Can they even eat coral?"

Jiang Ke looked at the dolphins beside him and murmured to himself.

As a result, the dolphin actually nodded.

Then it "chirped" twice, and the seawater under Jiang Ke's feet rolled, forming a bubble and wrapping her in it.

Then the dolphins gathered around the bubbles and dived deep under the sea surface.

Jiang Ke, who was in the bubble, did not feel any difficulty in breathing. She looked at the sea world under the sun.

...empty.

In the sea, you can only see the white sand on the bottom of the sea and a few fish swimming here and there.

This was completely different from the ocean world she had seen before.

But she also knew that this was the result of the lack of variety.

There are only five kinds of sea creatures distributed in such a large sea area, so it is normal that they cannot be seen.

She sat down.

Bubble continued to dive surrounded by dolphins, and the surrounding light became dimmer.

But the dolphins thoughtfully emitted light and illuminated the area.

And their destination can already be seen-——

Looking from a distance, clusters of silvery corals grow on the white seabed.

These strange crystalline corals sway with the sea water.

Every time they sway, they will emit tiny particles that look like silvery moonlight.

After these particles were injected into the ground, the sand on the seabed was saturated with a layer of warm silver moonlight.

This seabed is like a flowing river of moon.

Gorgeous and extraordinarily strange.

【Cluster Moon Coral】

【Psychic Species·Sea】

[Explanation: The coral polyps that grow on the seabed but are eager to merge with the moonlight will create a place where the moonlight gathers. Wherever the moonlight gathers, there will be air instead of sea water]

[Note: The shed shell of moon coral is the favorite food of most sea creatures]

"It turns out that there is land at the bottom of the sea... If these corals spread endlessly, will the entire bottom of the sea have to become land?"

Jiang Ke sighed at the magic of this thing, and then saw something that was not harmonious at a glance.

"Then why are the vending machines so bright...are you asking me to buy something at a glance?

There’s no limit to how you can cheat money, right?”

Getting closer and closer to the moonlit land, on a stone.

A vending machine and a portal stand over there.

The former is naturally a money trap, while the latter should be the gateway to Xiaoyuhai from the outside.

By this time, the dolphins had also arrived at the Moonlight Land, carrying the bubbles. The leading dolphin pushed gently with its mouth, and the bubbles seemed to have broken through an invisible film. It made a soft sound and then shattered.

Jiang Ke landed directly on the moonlight-soaked ground.

Then……

"pain!"

She exclaimed and immediately stood up rubbing her butt.

The ground is not soft sand at all, it is as hard as marble!

Fortunately, it's not too high. If it were higher, her butt would really bloom.

Outside the film, the dolphins made a very uniform "chirp" sound.

They seemed to be laughing and swimming around in circles in the sea water.

Jiang Ke had long known that dolphins were naughty, but he didn't expect them to be so naughty.

Originally, she was a little angry because of being teased, but she listened to the contagious "laughter" of these sea spirits.

She couldn't help but laugh.

There were beautiful scenery and cute little animals. Plus, she was already satisfied with being taken on a diving trip.
