Hvisland: A VR Colony Sim Game

Chapter 168 - 168 – It Begins

Kat tossed the twig that morning, and Rex happily chased after it. When Rex came back wiggling his tail and carrying that thing, the girl crouched down and then stroked the dog's body.

"Good boy. Good boy."

Seeing Kat's rare smile, I immediately used the screenshot feature.

"Well, you do like animals, don't you? Are you a zookeeper like Sun?" Gwen came over, took off the face mask she was wearing.

Gwen's outfit has been modified into a kind of tight-fitting shirt that shows off the midriff, as well as her cleavage. Meanwhile, her pants have become so short, to the point of showing some of her butts. Not to mention the size that seems too tiny for Gwen's lower body.

Excellent.

Kat turned her head to the blonde woman, returning with her blank expression. "No."

The girl didn't comment on Gwen's skimpy outfit at all.

And as happened to my other colonists, Gwen was silent, waiting for the amber-eyed girl to continue. However, Kat stayed quiet and focused on training her dog to sit up instead.

Gwen turned her head to me, made a broad smile, and spoke to me silently. "I just want to get to know her."

I shrugged, moving over to Kat's side. "Hey, how about you talk to Gwen, so you guys get to know each other? Well, maybe there's a question that's really bothering you, Kat?"

Kat stopped her training Rex, finally speaking. "I know you, Gwen Elizabeth Quenny. I heard about you when I went through a series of tests to join the great expedition. And I know why you were banished here."

Gwen narrowed her eyes. "Hooo… Really?" The woman sat on a nearby flat stone. "What's the reason I was thrown here?"

"The reason is the same as the reason they recruited me. The difference is, I registered myself, and maybe you're here because…." Kat fell silent again.

A long sigh escaped Gwen's mouth. "Well, I won't argue with that. They thought I was a failure as a psychic and a doctor, so they sent me here to…. Well, they sent me here to make as many children as possible, with the hope that my children will have super abilities like me."

Ugh. Those who did this to Gwen were disgusting.

"For me. It's more about my physique. I don't have any special skills. They want people who…. They want people who have a physique that fits the criteria they set. The goal is the same, with the hope that I give many offspring that…. You must have figured it out already."

"Ah, I've heard of such a thing. They just think of us as a tool to make offspring that they think is good." Gwen laughed bitterly, then looked fixedly into Kat's amber eyes. "Tell me, Katherine. I was thrown here because of the wishes of people who think they owned me. How about you? Why did you sign up here?"

"I didn't know what to do with my life, and my friend offered me to come here."

Gwen was silent a second time, probably waiting for another reply from Kat. However, she finally smiled broadly and asked. "Only that? Really?"

"Yes."

You are indeed a unique individual, Kat.

"Seb, you better stop this now!"

The three of us turned to Eric's voice, which came from afar. With a worried face, the brown-haired man was looking at Seb, who was planting corn.

"I can't stop now…." Seb broke off from coughing. "If no one takes care of all this, we won't be able to get enough food supplies."

Huh, he doesn't want to obey my orders?

Putting on her face mask again, Gwen immediately ran over to the man and checked on him. "Your body temperature is so high. Since when have you been this sick?"

"Come on, Seb. You should rest like Manu and Sun." Eric sounded desperate.

"That is not important." Seb kept smiling despite coughing again. "I should at least finish planting all of this first."

And the man started planting again using a small shovel. Gwen was speechless when she saw that.

Eric rubbed his face. "Seb, please. Stop this…."

"Let him be, Eric." I cut off Eric, and Gwen immediately glared at me. The woman gestured to me, then left the place.

I followed her to the backyard.

"Are you crazy?" Gwen lowered her face mask and spoke in a high-pitched, low-volume voice. "We don't know about this disease. Maybe his condition will only get worse if he continues like that."

"Sorry, but this is for the long term. Seb used to work in an institution that researched plants. Of course, he knew about good farming techniques. Meanwhile, the others didn't know about it. Do you know how? I do not think so." I replied to the woman. "Yes, he could have taught others to do it. However, it takes time, and there is no guarantee it will be successful."

"But..."

"I prefer him to finish his work as soon as possible before he collapses. If he fell, he might not even be able to teach others anymore. We will be in a difficult situation. Seb can't grow crops because of illness, while the people who replace him don't have adequate skills." I sighed. After all, this is a game. Planting stats certainly affects the final results that will be obtained. And with the low planting stats for the other colonies, they had to be taught from a fundamental level.

Gwen massaged her forehead.

"Please understand, Gwen. Food is one of the most important things for survival. This cannot be taken lightly." I continued my speech. "At the very least, you can keep an eye on him, right?"

The woman looked up and closed her eyes. "If anything happens to him, I'll blame you."

"Please, go ahead. I'm ready to hear all your anger later if something bad happens." I spread my hands. "But listen, I'm still worried about Seb's condition. However, in doing all of this, I have to take risks, Gwen."

"Shit." Gwen shook her head, then left me.

"Pray for the best, Gwen."

"You can be said to be the god of this place, right?" Gwen laughed bitterly.. "You didn't even listen to my request."
