I see. It turns out that a character's interest in this game can change too. Previously, there was no star sign in her animal's stat. Let's hope Kat makes a great tamer in my colony. That might just make things more exciting.
I'm currently fast-forwarding my game. Kat and Manu are still on their way.
Hmmm... Maybe now is the time to check my colony settlement? I used the warp button and stopped fast forward one morning. The two colonists there were already active, while Leva was still sleeping soundly, perhaps because her tiredness had accumulated. Yesterday in-game time was the third time the girl brought clay to her house.
So, it's been nine days since she did that.
"Today you better take a day off. Leva." I whispered softly in his ear, though I wasn't sure that way of speaking would make anything different.
"Arghhh!"
I immediately got out of the shelter as soon as I heard the scream. Seb lay on the grass with an empty bucket at his feet. The potato fields were only half watered.
Ugh. His procrastination trait kicked in.
"Are you really bored, Seb?" Pif, who was practicing archery, said like a drunk person. His face didn't look excited at all. "Carrying a bucket from the river to water the plants every day must be tough, huh?"
I could have ordered them to make a settlement near the river. However, I thought things could go awry if there was a big rain and the river overflowed.
"Yeah, all this routine is boring." Seb took a deep breath.
"But what you're doing is much easier than Leva's."
Seb straightened up. "You're right."
However, Seb still did not do his activities and just sat. Pif shook his head and went back to his archery practice.
Pif, you're frustrated too, right? You're sick of practicing archery all the time. I really have to think of other entertainment for them.
"Cluck.... Cluck.... Cluck...."
We all turned towards the faint voice.
Huh? That voice from a distance was very familiar.
I went to the place and found a flock of chickens with blackish feathers under a slope. There were about thirty of them and were only in the vicinity of that place. Most just walk and occasionally peck on the ground, but some just sit or even have sex.
Where did they come from? I never saw any sign of the appearance of these two-legged animals.
Ah, but this is an excellent opportunity to increase the stock of food.
I returned to the settlement and immediately whispered to Pif. "Go to the source of that sound with your bow. Hunt some of the chickens that are there."
The skinny man blinked his eyes, lowered his bow, then spoke to Seb. "I'm leaving for a bit."
The blond-haired man raised an eyebrow. "Where are you going?"
"I don't know" Pif began to collect the arrows stuck in the target and scattered on the ground. "Anyway, I feel compelled to go to that place with a bow."
"What?"
"Well, that's how we usually feel, right? Sometimes our guardian spirit wants to give a hint." Pif shrugged and started walking. Seb was about to catch up with the young man, but I gave him orders to stay where he was.
Less than two minutes, Pif had arrived at the place of the chickens. The skinny man hid behind a bush, then took aim with his bow.
Since his archery skills weren't as excellent as Kat's, Pif took a few seconds longer to release his arrows.
Zap!
One chicken immediately fell as soon as Pif's arrow hit it. The other chickens immediately panicked. They ran in various directions with a loud screech.
Pif had to adjust his aim many times because the chickens were running so fast.
Ugh. It seemed like it would be difficult to ask him to shoot the chickens again.
"Enough, you just take the chicken and go back to the house." I said to the skinny man.
Pif lowered his bow and came out of hiding, and immediately I realized something.
The chickens sounded more fierce. They were running in one direction.
They came to Pif.
The boy stopped and widened his eyes. I then shouted at him. "Run, you idiot! Don't stand still like a fucking liberty statue!"
Pif took a few steps back, then spun around and ran as fast as he could. "Help, there are crazy chickens!!!"
"Cluck! Cluck! Cluuuck!!!"
Seb was walking with a bucket towards the river when he saw the chickens. Instead of helping or doing anything, the man ran away.
Shit! Why did one of my colonists have to have such a trait!? You're really useless at a time like this, Seb!
Fortunately, Leva was already out of the shelter, although yawning and rubbing her eyes. As soon as she saw the birds, she didn't seem frightened at all. The red-haired girl spread her arms and laughed. "Ahahaha!!! Come here birds!!! We will have an epic fight!!! You all will become my delicious meal!!!"
She entered the shelter, took a rusty machete, then came out again, running towards the chickens while lifting her weapon.
The flock of chickens was getting closer. Pif tripped over his own feet and fell. The poor young man was immediately surrounded by birds that pecked him brutally.
Meanwhile, Leva slashed at the chickens that jumped at her. With a single slash, one bird crashed to the ground covered in blood.
"This is so fucking fun!!!" Leva laughed again as if she were on a playground and not fighting a beast. The attacks from the chickens also had absolutely no effect on her body. She was still moving nimbly to slash them down.
[Happy fighting buff - so frustrated with the situation, Leva used fighting to vent her feelings. Her attack accuracy and moving speed increase.]
Good! Hurry up and kill them all! I don't want my colonists to die just because of these beaked beasts!
