As she spoke, Jane turned her gaze to the small fish and shrimp around her. They were long and oddly shaped, with some having flat, plate-like bodies and others sporting a pair of erect fins.
When these fish saw Jane, they didn't seem scared. Rather than swimming away, they circled around her.
"Wow, these fish are so cute—they're not afraid of people!" Jane exclaimed in surprise.
"It seems these fish must have no natural predators here, otherwise, they wouldn't be so bold!"
"Jane, don't touch them—beware of poison! If you get poisoned, it's game over!"
...
Hearing the chat comments, Jane quickly withdrew her hand and scanned the fish with her bracelet.
"Ding, rabbitfish, small herbivorous fish with developed hearing, assessment: non-aggressive, edible."
"Wow, I found something to eat right away! Let's check out the others!"
Jane exclaimed joyfully and aimed her bracelet at other fish.
"Ding, dartfish, similar in appearance to darts, fast, assessment: weakly aggressive, edible."
"Ding, bubble fish, has a special membrane that filters seawater into its body cavity, allowing it to store fresh water. Assessment: edible, the membrane acts as a natural filter to produce purified water."
"Produces purified water! Awesome!!!"
Jane cheered happily, "This bubble fish is really useful—it can be eaten and used to produce fresh water!"
"In that case, sorry, Bubble Fish!"
Jane reached out and caught the nearest bubble fish, then grabbed a dartfish as well.
"Haha, these fish are so easy to catch!" Jane said excitedly.
"Oops, I forgot to bring my backpack!"
Holding a fish in each hand, she quickly swam back to the escape pod.
But then, Jane faced a dilemma.
"But how should I eat this fish? I can't eat it raw..."
Seeing the two live fish still wriggling in her hands, Jane frowned.
"Jane, what are you thinking? To reiterate, this is a game—you can't eat it raw even if you want to!"
"Yeah, there's no difference between raw and cooked fish here; you can't actually eat it!"
"Going through the motion of eating should count as eating!"
...
"That's right..." Jane realized after reading the comments, and she had subconsciously started thinking of it as the real world again.
The fish in her hands looked incredibly realistic, feeling slick and substantial...
It really didn't seem like a game at all.
Even so, she didn't need to overthink it.
Holding the dartfish, Jane brought it up to her mouth.
"Beautiful girl, eating raw fish may cause certain diseases," Chang'e's voice suddenly chimed in.
"Then how can I eat it if I don't eat it raw?" Jane asked curiously.
"Of course, it needs cooking," Chang'e replied.
"But I don't have the means," Jane said, spreading her hands.
"Have you forgotten about the [mobile 3D printing platform] in the escape pod?" Chang'e said. "It's in the storage cabinet of the escape pod."
"Oh, there's something like that?" Jane asked, confused, and quickly got up to check.
After searching, Jane's attention turned to what she thought was a backpack in the storage cabinet. It was actually boxy and seemed to be made of some kind of metal. It must be the "3D printing platform" Chang'e mentioned.
"What can this thing do?" Jane asked.
"Using technologies such as 3D printing and thermal energy, it can fabricate various items from collected materials," Chang'e replied.
"Then how do I cook with this thing?" Jane asked, still puzzled.
"Leave it to me. I'll activate the cooking function for you," Chang'e said.
The next moment, the bracelet Jane was wearing flashed, and the backpack-like printing platform automatically unfolded.
Several micro-robots resembling flies flew out, projecting rays of light around the dartfish.
Almost instantly, Jane smelled the aroma of grilled fish!
"It's done?!"
"Wow! What kind of advanced technology is this?"
"Fast cooking without fire!!"
...
Amidst the admiration from her viewers, a grilled dartfish was prepared.
"This cooking technology automatically removes the bones, body fluids, and internal organs during processing. Feel free to eat."
"Ahhh, I want to eat it too, it smells so good!!!" Jane exclaimed, holding the fragrant dartfish in her hands, her mouth watering. "Unfortunately, I can't eat it."
"Why doesn't this darn VR platform have a taste function, darn it!!!"
Gosh, the grilled fish looks and smells amazing, but she just can't eat it!
So frustrating!!!
