The Rise Of Otaku - Chapter 224

Chapter 224: Chapter 224 the rainbow plants

Ying Xiu comic studio, this was the name that Zhou Yu decided by randomly picking two words from the Chinese dictionary. It sounded quite feminine, but still not bad. The updated comic studio also added a new production option – Rainbow Comics.

Upon hearing the name, it sounded dreamy and interesting.

First, the owner of the comic studio, the fast-handed Wang, needed to meditate in ‘The Mind Room’ of the comic studio. The meditation would produce rainbow seeds, which could be planted in the soil, that had the ACG world attributes. Then the fast-handed Wang would plant the rainbow seeds and take care of them to ensure they grow well, and then harvest the rainbow silk when they were mature.

After the rainbow silk was harvested, the workers in the comic studio would process it in ‘the filature room’ and then gave it to ‘the weaving room’ to perform the last step of the production – weaving.

The brocade that was produced by it would become the new comic series.

From the production process, it could be seen that after the upgrade of the studio, the number of workers would be increased, so the cost would definitely be increased as well. Therefore if the quality of the comics that it produced didn’t increase, it really could not be justified. And the production speed, which was something that the comic studio was most proud of, was bound to be slowed down again.

It would almost drop to the normal speed, which was one chapter a week. However, if there were any accidents in the process of raising the plants, then the fast-handed Wang would become Togashi 2.0.

Only after the fast-handed Wang stayed in the Mind Room for two days did he just lay an ‘egg’, that was riotous with color as if it was a top-quality immoral pill. The fast-handed Wang was very satisfied, and he quickly asked Zhou Yu to find two flowerpots. And then after measuring the distance, he planted the rainbow seed in one of the flowerpots.

Then watering and fertilizing, as if he was taking care of a regular flower. But within a minute or so, the flowerpot, in which the rainbow was planted, had movements, and then a white blade light slowly grew out from the soil, and the longer it grew the more colors it would have.

It kept growing higher and higher without any signs of stopping. Until it finally stopped, it had already grown three stories high and had seven colors. It was no more than ten centimeters wide and as thin as a sheet of paper. With this kind of thin root, it naturally would not be able to support its tall body.

So the rainbow began to bend and fall, but it was so strong that it did not break but form an arch. And the other end of the arch was currently falling towards the direction of the second flowerpot.

The fast-handed Wang looked very nervous. Only until the other end of the rainbow finally landed inside the empty flower pot and formed a beautiful rainbow bridge was he finally relieved and had a smile on his face. From his reaction, Zhou Yu guessed that the construction of the rainbow bridge might not be always successful.

A seven-colored rainbow suddenly appeared in the small forest in the garden of Zhou Yu, it added some poetic and picturesque charm to the slightly monotonous small forest. Even Oba, who lived in seclusion in the small forest, was also startled by it and came out to applaud the new landscape.

However, the seven-colored rainbow was a little thin, and its light was also very weak. It was looming as if it would disappear at any time. But when Zhou Yu used the eyes of reality to check it, it was just two empty flower pots, and there was no rainbow. Fortunately, it was like this, otherwise, if someone saw this small rainbow, it would only bring troubles to him.

At this time, the fast-handed Wang did something that surprised Zhou Yu. He actually walked slowly on the rainbow bridge, step by step until he arrived in the middle of the bridge. It was a little wobbly, but it didn’t break or fall, and it was just shaking up and down in the wind, seemingly very dangerous.

“I mean… the fast-handed Wang, that’s enough showoff. If you fell down and if I didn’t catch you, the white witch would have another patient.”

Zhou Yu looked at the rainbow bridge, which was about one and a half meters high, and said with worry. Especially when it looked so thin as if it would collapse at any time.

“I have traveled around the world for so many years. Why should I be afraid of this? Besides, rainbow plants need the person who planted them to plow it. If I don’t plow it, who else can?”

The fast-handed Wang was indeed very brave. He quickly took out a small hoe and began to plow the rainbow. He was not even afraid to break the thin rainbow at all. Zhou Yu was a little afraid of heights. Just imagining this kind of high altitude work would make him shiver, so he didn’t dare to look at the fast-handed Wang again.

However, strangely, as the fast-handed Wang began to plow it, the rainbow bridge not only did not collapse, but became thicker and thicker, and the colorful light became more and more shining.

Yesterday, it was still shaking in the wind, but now it was standing still in the air. Little Muli and other kids were even running around and playing on it happily, and the fast-handed Wang didn’t even stop them, which meant that it was no longer dangerous, and it would hinder the growth of the rainbow bridge.

Two days later, the rainbow bridge was ready for harvest. Looking at the radiant rainbow bridge, Little Muli was a little upset after hearing that the bridge would be harvested soon, so she let her old man paint a landscape painting with her, the little forest and the rainbow bridge as the background.

Zhou Yu’s painting skills could easily fool amateurs, and Zhou Fu was also not surprised by it anymore since once in a while Zhou Yu would seem to develop a strange new skill. Therefore, he didn’t feel strange when he saw Zhou Yu was painting with a brush carefully.

Still, there was work that needed to be discussed.

“Boy Yu, that Liu Gongcai was very anxious recently, he has been asking me repeatedly when the fast-handed Wang’s new work will come out. Do you have any news or not? Can you at least give him something so he won’t be this anxious.”

Zhou Fu didn’t know much about comics, he just thought that the fast-handed Wang’s comic was quite good, and it was not that big of a deal if he wanted to end one series and draw a new one. As long as he was still here, there was no need to worry about other things. But Liu Gongcai needed to consider a lot more. The quality of the new comic could be guaranteed if the main artist of the new work was still the fast-handed Wang, but who dared not say that this work would still attract his original fans?

For example, if a Shonen manga artist suddenly decided to draw Shojo manga, although the art style didn’t change, the content was very different, it would only make the old fans mad and it might not attract the new readers. This kind of transformation often ended up in GG.

Generally speaking, the possibility of this kind of situation was not high, but with Zhou Yu’s eccentric temperament, the people who were willing to follow him might also act like him. What if the artist suddenly lost their minds?

Therefore, although Liu Gongcai had already left the amusement park, he still paid close attention to it. He would call Zhou Fu three times a day, and all the calls would be always on time, just like a mom asking a child to eat on time.

After several calls, Zhou Fu was also annoyed by him, so he came to Zhou Yu and asked him about the situation.

However, Zhou Yu replied, “I don’t know. I haven’t seen the fast-handed Wang’s new work yet. Let’s wait for a few days. I have already given him all my chapters. A hundred chapters are enough for him to last a year and a half. What’s the hurry?”

In the past, the comic “assassin” at least would give him an outline to read, but now, everything about this new work was with question marks, Zhou Yu himself was very curious about the new work. But with the character of the fast-handed Wang, Shonen manga was his strength, so the new series would probably still be this type of comic.

So, there was no need to worry that much.
