Hvisland: A VR Colony Sim Game

"Sit!" Kat lifted a small piece of jerky over Rox's head while her other hand pointed down.

Rox, whose neck was tied with a rope to a tree, looked at his master for a moment, then sat down.

After a few days, you finally got him to do what you ordered, Kat.

"Good boy, good boy." Kat crouched down and handed the jerky to Rox, who devoured it immediately.

I watched Kat's face as she stroked the dog's fur. Damn, even though I want to see her smile again.

Several days passed, and nothing significant had happened. The wooden shelter was finally finished, and now I had Manu build a kind of wooden cage for the prisoners they got in case there was another raid. I want Seb to keep persuading captured prisoners to join so my colony gets bigger. Tying them to a tree is inhumane. They cannot move freely.

Meanwhile, Seb continues to take care of the crops, and later he will cook. Leva is in charge of mineral mining. And then for Pif...

I turned to the skinny man, who was now practicing archery with the target Kat had carved into a tree.

Zap!

The arrow veered far from the target, not even hitting the tree at all. Well, that doesn't mean he's that bad, though. A few arrows hit the target, though none of them were right in the middle.

It's been a long time since there's been such a significant event, I'm starting to feel anxious. Therefore, I increased the strength of my colony by asking Pif to train.

"Woof! Woof!"

Pif, who was aiming, flinched violently, making his arrow miss the target again. He then ran away when he saw Kat and Rox walking towards him.

Unlike what usually happens when Pif hides in the bushes, Kat and Rox didn't leave this time but continued to come after the boy.

"Why do you hate Rox?" Kat asked.

Kat's behavior was so cold, and I didn't expect the girl to ask something like that.

You're starting to get worried about how your dog will feel if someone doesn't accept him, don't you, Kat?

Pif peeked, shuddered, and went back into hiding. "Take him away from me!!!"

Hey, this is a cute dog, Pif.

"You have not answered my question." Kat looked behind the bushes to find Pif curled up and shaking. "Why do you hate Rox?"

Pif raised his head in an unbelievably stiff motion, flinching again when Rox was sitting in front of him only a meter away. The young man looked like he wanted to run, but perhaps because his legs were shaking, he fell to the ground when he was only half standing.

"I don't hate dogs! I'm just afraid of them!" Pif was starting to look like he was going to cry. "People in my tribe often get me chased by dogs! They say it's to train my physique! I'm lucky to always survive! I've seen someone who was actually bitten by a dog and seriously injured!"

Shit. The story is too dark. Not wanting to make Pif more uncomfortable, I decided to speak into Kat's ear. "Then leave him alone."

"Come on, boy." Kat spoke to her dog, then walked away without interacting with Pif again.

Rox stared at Pif for a few more moments and only followed Kat when he was called a second time.

Pif breathed a sigh of relief, though his body was still shaking.

This developer said, all the traits, stats, appearance, personality, and background of every character in this world are computer-generated. So, in every gameplay, you will not find the same character.

However, these characters are quite complex. I'm even more amazed by the creators of this game. These characters are not like the NPCs in other games, all of which are made up by the creator.

Huh?

I noticed that Pif hadn't moved from his spot in quite a while. When I checked the others, they also stopped their respective activities.

Auto pause? Is there a threat coming?

I used the fly feature to be able to check the situation. Moving into the air, I searched for the thing that triggered the auto-pause.

It took only a moment for me to found three people sitting near a large rock. It's very far from my colony.

[Raiders of Hardfeather Tribe]

I see. They are also from the tribe that Pif used to live in.

[These attackers will be resting for a while. They are waiting for the time they think is right to attack.]

Hmmm, so they won't attack right away, huh? I'd better check them out first. So, I landed near them and pressed the play button.

"Why should I raid with you guys?" A man with a long ponytail and somewhat muscular build was leaning on a large rock, looking at his two companions who were kneeling in front of him. "And with absurd reasons too. Taking Pif back!? Seriously! He is weak like you guys! He is useless in our tribe!"

I'm sorry, but Pif is already part of my colony, motherfucker.

[???? (Raider, Tribe Member)]

STATS:

Ranged Attack: 5/100

Melee attacks: 82/100

Shit. His melee attack is much higher than Leva, who is the best fighter in my colony.

I then started to check the stats of the other two attackers, who could only duck their heads in silence. The first person is a man with a thin body like Pif and has curly hair.

[???? (Raider, Tribe Member)]

STATS:

Ranged Attack: 1/100

Melee attack: 29/100

It seems like it would be easy to beat this guy... Huh?

Realizing something, I approached him. There is a bite mark on his left thigh. Is this the person mentioned in Pif's story earlier?

I then looked at the other attacker, a dull blonde woman with tan skin.

STATS:

[???? (Raider, Tribe Member)]

Ranged Attack: 22/100

Melee attack: 3/100

She wasn't a threat either. Pif already has a ranged attack stat of 24, thanks to playing hoop stone and archery practice.

It seems I should pay more attention to the ponytail-haired man.. He is the real threat to my colony.
