I'm the mayor of a simulated ghost city

05:58:36 in the morning.

Lu Yao pushed open the door of his home, rushed to the computer without any nonsense, and waved to Gu Mingxiao who was still bewildered: "Come on, don't stay in my house. The big Buddha you moved is still downstairs. If you can't get down in three minutes, I guess you will break your legs."

Gu Mingxiao's face turned pale when he heard this. He scratched his yellow hair and complained a little: "It's because you are in a hurry that I have no choice but to ask my uncle to rescue him."

Seeing that she was about to grab a handful of his newly dyed yellow hair, Lu Yao reminded her: "Don't grab your head. With your hair color, you'll probably be lucky to keep your head."

As he spoke, Lu Yao had already picked up the VR helmet and said, "Remember to close the door for me when you run out."

Before he finished speaking, the door slammed shut with a loud bang. Gu Mingxiao had already disappeared, and Lu Yao had just entered the "Simulated Ghost Market".

05:59:19 in the morning.

[Dear Mayor, welcome back. Now the town has no water supply facilities and residents have difficulty in using water. The water plant you unlocked has been stored in your construction module. Please use the construction module to place the water plant in a suitable area. ]

As soon as she entered the plaque-shaped highway toll station gate in Wuxiang City, Lu Yao heard the news broadcast of the caring sister that the system had switched to at some point, and she rolled her eyes.

"I say, system, are you alone or are you a group of people playing tricks on me? Can't you just use one audio? Why do you have to keep switching?!"

[Yes, Mayor, I have collected millions of system sounds here. You can choose a fixed audio mode, such as Lolita sound, uncle sound, royal sister sound, supporting actor sound...]

"Don't, don't be a straight-talker." There were already few words, and now it's been switched to being a straight-talker. Wouldn't it mean that Lu Yao would have to say one sentence and it would respond one sentence?

From now on, there will be no more hints.

Lu Yao thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you just give me a domineering boss? When I get tired of hearing it, I'll change it."

【Heh, woman, you have successfully caught my attention. 】

"Oh, man, is this all you have got?"

【...】

Well, Boss, she just wants it to speak when it should, and silently get angry when it shouldn't. (?乛?乛?)～～～

05:59:55 in the morning.

Lu Yao walked to the edge of the planned land, a water source along the river.

I clicked on the colored water plant icon in my own construction module, placed the water plant upstream, and the drainage channel downstream.

05:59:58 in the morning.

The underground water pipes are connected to the residential, commercial and industrial areas that Lu Yao had previously planned.

05:59:59 in the morning.

The blue pipeline diagram lit up, and the water supply system began to operate normally. Residents in the residential area said, "Great, there is water."

Lu Yao could hear all the sounds in the entire city, which made her feel like she had a God's perspective. And to be honest, if it weren't for the abnormal system, Ghost Market Simulation would undoubtedly be a top-notch game.

At this moment, the water plant in front of Lu Yao was exactly the same as the West China Water Supply Plant she had just passed, in the same proportion and one-to-one restoration.

Moreover, Lu Yao came and left in a hurry yesterday. Now, taking a closer look, the area she had planned earlier was exactly the same as the Heping Village in the real Wuxiang City.

It’s like moving the entire city into the game space.

After passing the entry threshold for beginners, the system provides more explanations of the game.

[Woman, are you surprised? I have given you this city.]

"Haha, thank you." Lu Yao walked slowly back from the water plant. In fact, rather than walking, she seemed more like she was floating on the land. After all, she had not built any extra roads. Based on what Lu Yao was thinking, the system also gave an explanation.

[Due to the influx of new residents, you have gained a small amount of fiscal revenue, which can be used to expand new roads and plan new areas. In addition...]

"I knew there was another one. Tell me, what problem is going to come up next?"

Lu Yao knew that once she chose to go along with the system to complete the mission, she would not be able to stop at just one mission. Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Although she would probably never forget the experience of escaping death, she had a good attitude.

[In addition, you will receive life rewards for completing the mayor's mission and building town facilities. Therefore, this new water plant and simulated ghost market also provide you with generous rewards to commend the mayor's achievements.]

Oh! Is there such a good thing?

Lu Yao became interested and saw a panel appear in front of him. It was no longer voice-controlled but provided by vision. Although the panel was still pitch black, there was undoubtedly blood rolling on it.

Yes! The simulated ghost market is full of real ghosts.

It can be seen that the panel reads:

[Please select the life reward you want to get (you will get points based on the degree of task completion. This task will get 2 points. You can accumulate points to exchange for rewards, or you can exchange them directly).]

[1. Survival Skill (required score: 1 point): Sense of smell. Humans have seven senses, how many do ghosts have? Are you still troubled by not being able to distinguish smells? It doesn't matter. Take the Sense of Smell skill and you will be able to distinguish thousands of smells and infer unexpected things through smells.]

Isn't the introduction of the smell skill a bit sloppy? It's a prize and you're still playing word guessing games here.

Lu Yao took a look and jumped directly to the next column.

[2. Life Skills (Required Points: 1): Swimming. Want to go to the deep sea like a shark? The light in the deep sea is a fatal injury. If you are worried that your boyfriend will trick you into drowning in the sea one day, you might as well learn this skill. You can stay in the deep sea for a month without an oxygen tank until your friends find you.]

"Fuck! Is it possible to swim in the sea for a month without bubbling?" Lu Yao was a little shocked by the second reward. She didn't expect the system to produce anything good, but she didn't expect that she seemed to have opened up a new world.

She didn't think the system's reward was a joke.

After all, the real-world dangers given by the system are real, so the rewards given by the system cannot be limited to use in the game.

Judging from this, she needs to practice Taoism!

[3. Awesome Skills (This skill has not been unlocked yet and needs to be unlocked after the town is upgraded to a county town)]

[4. Pretending skill (this skill has not been unlocked yet and needs to be unlocked after the town is upgraded to a prefecture-level city)]

"I can understand this awesome skill, but why is there a pretend skill? And it's obviously more difficult to obtain the pretend skill. Is the system sick?"

Lu Yao discovered that one advantage of the system was that it would never take revenge on people no matter how much they were scolded. This was quite upright, but it always made people guess at its tricks, and one could die if they were not careful.

Therefore, she cannot act blindly, because when she grows up she will want them all. She has to think carefully, in case the system makes subsequent supplements after she has made her selection, and she can exchange the points for something else.

Therefore, after hesitating for a while, Lu Yao only checked one...

Selected [Survival Skill: Smell].
