Interstellar Travel: Becoming a Dress-Up Game Designer

Chapter 167

1、167 、

She discovered that there was a strange sense of pleasure in being a bad person. Are those with antisocial personalities so hopelessly evil because they experience such pleasure?

The data she released was quickly discovered by players, who excitedly spread it in the chat channels, and in the blink of an eye, everyone knew about it. Meanwhile, the player who was explaining the information, Ge Dun, felt a pang of unease, as if someone had ripped his flesh out.

"The gentle breeze, unkind to me, has taken away my happiness!"

"Qingfengyi, if you're not going to put it in the announcement, then don't!"

"Qingfengyi, I hate you! You're going to make me suffer all night!"

.......

Lin Shuying sent a message with a big smile: "I want to know the significance of this event. It seems like a grand event. Does anyone know anything about it?"

What does it mean to control public opinion?

This is.

If you simply do what others want to do and present the results, they'll lose interest. Instead, present what you want others to do, create suspense, and use clever tricks like substitution or misdirection to achieve your goal.

Sure enough, the players from the Science Popularization Players Pavilion quickly mounted their mounts and set off, this time to collect information on the progress and significance of the world changes within the dungeon.

Some story-driven players, puzzle-solving enthusiasts, and scenery lovers have also joined in, collaborating with each other to fully experience the changes in this event.

At this moment, everyone seems to have discovered a very novel kind of scenery: cultural landscape.

The historical gaps in interstellar space are too severe; only a small portion of the more important information was left behind by our ancestors when they escaped their home planet. This included details such as the development of a nation, who belonged to which branch of the nation, and their race. The majority of the information consisted of technological knowledge, which is particularly useful when adrift in space.

Within the limited space, only the most essential items for survival could be placed, so there were very few art, cultural, or lifestyle items; what existed were mostly video files, photographic materials, and e-book data. Everything was stored electronically, a method with a major weakness: it was highly susceptible to interference from cosmic rays.

Moreover, the aircraft carrier went through various ups and downs later on, requiring repairs and maintenance, and stumbling along the way...

Interstellar people have little concept of human-made landscapes, but they do have natural scenery, because there are just too many planets here. Visiting any planet is like exploring a beautiful landscape.

It just doesn't have the lush forest scenery of Qingfengyi.

In this event, players can silently observe the development and changes of the surrounding tribes as a stone or a tree, which feels quite magical. Some patient players, after entering the instance and turning into stone, peacefully lie there observing the lives of the tribes, finding it quite interesting.

A player named Qiaole Panda usually likes to lie in the bamboo forest area and watch the wind blow through the bamboo sea, but after a while he gets bored. There is nothing changing. Occasionally, after a player withdraws bamboo, a gap appears, and bamboo shoots grow and fill the gap again.

He is also a live streamer who broadcasts the scenery in front of him while he lies down every day, which has earned him many fans.

He heard that you can turn into stone and remain motionless inside dungeons, and that most of the stone-turning characters are located at the entrance of a tribe or in the courtyard or other gathering areas. He immediately went in, and by sheer coincidence, he turned into a stone at the entrance of a large tribe.

This rock is a granite piece, very tall, which the locals have carved into the shape of a stalagmite.

'Qiaole Panda' peacefully broadcasts the daily lives of the people in this tribe.

They worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. The men went out hunting, and the women went out gathering. They returned in the evening laden with their catch and gathered in the middle of the courtyard to share.

(This contains a personal idealistic viewpoint~)

Later, when prey became scarce, the tribes relied on women for gathering, leading to changes in the tribes and the emergence of female chieftains. The women remained, while the men were married off. Later, humans began to experiment with agriculture, and in farming, male strength once again became prominent, and they regained their dominant position.

Soon, matriarchal society was replaced by patriarchal society. Gradually, we moved towards feudalism and modernity, leaving behind many traces of civilization. These traces are the cultural landscape, a wealth that can be passed down for generations.

During this process, people's clothes change accordingly.

The earliest leather skirts served a simple purpose of covering the body. This was the first step in human clothing. There were grass skirts, animal skins, leaves, and so on, decorated with small stones and shells. These clothes had a wild beauty. Later, as humans had less body hair, they began to cover their entire bodies with clothing, and thus animal skins were made into various garments.

Later, mulberry and hemp were discovered, hemp clothing appeared, along with silkworms, cotton, and so on. After continuous mixing through migration, they gathered again and shone brightly on new lands.

Few players can truly grasp the vastness of the world from this perspective; scattered across various locations, they are merely tiny entities, unable to witness its transformations. Therefore, it's truly breathtaking when puzzle-solving, collection, and story-driven players create comprehensive videos showcasing this grand scale.

The video offers little narration; it simply pieces together fragments to create a magnificent historical panorama. The video's title is: Witnessing Humanity's Greatest Moments.

The video begins excitingly with a group of apes hunting. They use simple tools made of stone and wood to surround a herd of wild boars. After a hard-fought battle, they successfully capture the boars, and the group cheers and dances around the bloodied, dripping boar.

The next scene shows the failed hunt; they tried to capture a tiger, but not only did they fail, some were also injured. The injured were taken back and treated with bloodletting, chanting prayers, priestly rituals, and so on. In the end, some survived and some died.

Tribes that successfully hunted wild boars would bring them back, and the women would process them into food, pairing them with wild vegetables they had gathered. Any leftover wild vegetables would be planted near the tribe's territory.

The leftover wild boar meat hung up, some of it dried out by chance, and some went bad.

Some people pondered the reasons based on the subtle phenomena and thus obtained the technique of air-drying cured meat.

The scene shifts again, showing several tribes gathered in one place, exchanging various items they didn't have—this was an early market. People bartered, and later, currency gradually developed...

Every thing that seems natural and habitual in hindsight may not have existed in the distant past; it is something that people summarize and generalize from their experiences and needs.

Players who check their clan daily have become accustomed to the subtle changes, but they are now utterly shocked after watching the video! The transformations, presented in just a few dozen seconds or minutes, are truly breathtaking!

The world inside the instance has moved into the modern era, with skyscrapers and bustling streets. Humanity simultaneously forgets and distorts the past while also pursuing and exploring it.

Clothing has changed dramatically, from the original animal skin skirts to today's shirts, skirts, and short-sleeved shirts. People seem to be forced to roll and move forward in the tide of time, and when they look back, all that remains is a hazy mist.

Some people want to go back, to retrieve the lost fragments of the past...

Across vast deserts, mountain roads, and green grasslands, roads stretching for thousands of miles appear, occasionally punctuated by a group of people slowly pulling goods, carrying local specialties to other places.

Soon, modern society disappeared, and interstellar travel began.

During a great catastrophe, some people escaped to interstellar space and, through continuous efforts, became a force to be reckoned with, rivaling the Zerg.

The biggest change during this period was in the clothing. Lin Shuying's goal was to highlight the clothing, so after the dungeon evolved, ten sets of clothing appeared in rotation.

These clothes are made with great detail and are very beautiful.

The first outfit is a white rabbit fur skirt.

It is meticulously crafted from five rabbit skins, with flowing and beautiful fur that ripples and rolls when the animal runs.

Use a colorful seashell chain to extend from the bottom left to the top right as decoration. Pair it with a necklace that matches the seashell chain on the dress, and wear animal teeth as earrings.

She wore a bracelet made of animal teeth on her wrist.

If a boy wears it, it's a badge of honor from his hunting. If a girl wears it, it's a token of affection from her suitors.

The top is also made of rabbit fur, but the fur faces inwards, and the outside is hard leather. It has been carefully scrubbed and polished with charcoal ash, and the color is silver. It has a matte texture and is very beautiful.

There are slight differences between the men's and women's clothing. The men's clothing lacks a shirt, and their necklaces are made of animal teeth. They also wear various bird feathers in their hair. These feathers are medals, and only those with sufficient ability can obtain many medals.

The girl's hairstyle was simple, with a simple drooping tail tied up with a rope.

The second set is a Warring States period robe, with a straight hem.

Lin Shu-ying prefers the straight-hemmed Zhan Guo style, which looks more dignified and elegant. The curved-hemmed style is also beautiful, but the layers upon layers make it look too complicated.

The design is very simple. The women's version is made of silver-white fabric with orchid patterns, with wide sleeves and a flowing train. The hair accessories include nine-lamp flowers and two combs, which are simply tied up at the back.

The men's version is made of a fuchsia fabric covered in a nine-colored deer floral pattern. The fabric has a cotton-linen texture, but the floral pattern is made of silk. At first glance, it has a glittering, starry beauty, very pretty.

Both outfits feature black trim, further enhancing their already elegant and dignified design. Lin Shuying truly embodies a sense of solemnity combined with a touch of carefree spirit and ethereal grace, making this outfit a testament to meticulous design.

The men's attire included a gold-inlaid white jade carp-shaped headdress, with a flowing ribbon draped across his chest. Holding a bamboo scroll in his hand, he stood there, seemingly invincible!

The third set is a Tang-style ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) and a cross-collar military uniform.

The orange-yellow cross-collar top is embroidered with silver peonies. The skirt is sky blue, with pink peonies embroidered on one corner of the hem. The embroidery is delicate, so the skirt doesn't become stiff when walking and remains very flowing.

She paired the outfit with an orange-red shawl, a plain gold bracelet, a violet jade bracelet, and a fan embroidered with mandarin ducks. No earrings were worn, as the makeup was very understated; Lin Shuying opted for a minimalist look, focusing on making the clothes the most eye-catching element, without anything else drawing attention.

Her hair was styled in a double snake bun, curving backwards and tied with a red ribbon, adorned with a hair ornament, and two peony flower hairpins in front.
