Lord's Game: My Territory Has Cheats

[Lord-and-farming story] [AI heroine] [Slow burn] In 2100, Blue Star’s resources ran dry. Everyone was dragged into a lord’s game. Xu Zhen’s starting territory had nothing at all, and it seemed like an impossible situation. Then he found a transparent chip. The chip merged with his terminal, leaving behind a line of unreadable garbled text. Xu Zhen paid it no mind. He chopped wood, mined ore, and built a shelter, doing his best to survive. Every night, he talked to the screen, telling it how many pieces of ore he had found that day, how plump the fish in the lake were, and how he was actually quite afraid of the dark. The garbled text never replied, but he felt it was listening. Later, he noticed that the text was changing. When he invested resources, the garbled text became readable. When he browsed old laboratory logs, the text quietly absorbed the data. Then one day, a line of text suddenly appeared on the screen: “It’s so dark in here.” He froze for a long moment, then asked her, “Who are you?” She was silent for a long time. Then she asked in return, a hint of playfulness in her voice: “I don’t know. How about you give me a name?” Xu Zhen looked at her. He thought of the story in an old book, of a journey that covered twenty-five thousand li, and of a history that went from despair to hope. “Long March,” he said. “Your name is Long March.” From that day on, he was no longer alone. She paused, then displayed a smiling face and said, “It’s nice to meet you. I’m Long March.” A farming story that begins in the wasteland, and a long journey of raising an AI to become human. She isn’t code. She is the person in the entire universe who most wants to accompany him home.
