Chapter 547: My Loss, Your Gain

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

In the huge godly palace, the silver-armored man was still sipping wine lazily. He looked like an elegant aristocrat who was calm and relaxed.

He was listening to the reports from his subordinates. “What are the natives doing now? Are they... running around aimlessly like panicking ants?”

The white-robed man bowed to him and said respectfully, “My Lord, as you predicted, these people are all fearful, and some of them are getting ready to run to remote places. Their so-called big cities are in shambles. The big families and forces are thinking hard to find ways to survive and continue their futile struggles.”

A series of wild laughter erupted in the room.

...

“Boss...”

“Boss!” Loli Jiang Xiaoyue had just come back from school and was about to pull Mr. Fang to play Dungeon Fighter Online with her. However, she was surprised to see he was sound asleep with his head on the desk.

“Boo—ss–!” She was furious. Everyone is talking about the imminent catastrophe that is about to overtake Spiritual State, and there are fewer and fewer customers in the shop. However, the damn shop owner is so care-free that he fell asleep?!

“Ah...?” Mr. Fang opened his eyes groggily. On his screen were rows of videos of livestreams, but him falling asleep made him look like a lazy good-for-nothing.

“Ah! What are you yelling about...?” Mr. Fang glanced at the screen and immediately sat up. “I almost forgot my main work.”

“Boss... Why are you collecting these livestreams recently?” Tilting her head, Jiang Xiaoyue was confused as she stared at the strange things on the screen that Fang Qi was working on.

“You don’t understand,” Mr. Fang said, “This is called promotional cinematic trailers! It’s a must-have for all E-Sports competitions!”

“But...” Seeing Jiang Xiaoyue and the people behind her such as Li Lanruo and Yue Bai looking toward his screen, he immediately turned it off and said, “You’re not supposed to see it now.”

“So mysterious!” With a snort, Jiang Xiaoyue said in disapproval, “Look around you! There are only a few players in the shop!

“If this continues, you’ll have to close the shop!” Jiang Xiaoyue snorted again and sat down beside him in a huff. Then, she entered the game, ignoring Mr. Fang.

“We have fewer customers?” Mr. Fang looked around. Sure enough, people usually had to wait in line to get a computer, but the shop wasn’t full at the moment even though it was the peak time of the day.

Many people’s profile pictures flashed on his QQ.

Su Tianji asked, [ Sir! Is the F1 World Championships still going to happen or not?!]

Liang Shi asked, [Sir, I heard that the people of the Spiritual State are under great pressure; is it true? Does it mean that the No.1 World-Wide Martial Dao Conference will be canceled?]

[The cultivation world of the Spiritual State is on the verge of destruction; why would they go to the internet café at this hour...?] Some people sent some disheartening and negative comments in the group.

Lately, Gu Tingyun and the other high-level people in the cultivation world of the Spiritual State were busy making plans and hadn’t shown up for a few days. Since their voices were missing, and they didn’t make any clear statements, more uncertainty appeared in the cultivation world.

If not for the efforts of the elders of the ancient families who tried to suppress the rumors, the whole cultivation world would have fallen into chaos.

The disciples of the big families didn’t venture out of their homes, some timid independent cultivators had begun packing up, ready to flee.

“Canceled?!” Nonplussed, Mr. Fang replied, [The No.1 World-Wide Martial Dao Conference will be held as planned!]

“What?!”

“You’ll hold the competition in such a situation?”

“Is the shop owner crazy...?” Xu Zhu was an authentic independent cultivator in the Spiritual State. Almost all independent cultivators didn’t have a fixed living place and would go wherever it was beneficial for them and avoided trouble, which was the law of survival that was engraved in their bones.

Any independent cultivator who had survived on this land was an experienced person, and when and how to find a safer place was a part of their survival skills that people like him memorized in their heads.

At this moment, he was packing in Fulai Inn in Yuanyang City, planning to leave the city today.

Regardless of how the war might end, he would only become a victim if he stayed.

As for games and that small shop, if it could survive the war, he could come back and visit it after the war.

After packing, he glanced around at his empty room and then looked at the communication jade in his hand.

This new communication jade had cost him a small fortune and he had downloaded the shop’s mobile QQ APP on it.

[Ding! You have a new message.] A strange message suddenly popped up on QQ.

He clicked it open subconsciously.

“Welcome F1 World Championship! Rewards for returning heroes?”

“Receive gifts by logging in?”

His eyes almost popped out of his eye sockets when he saw the gifts. “Life tokens? Black Diamond Membership?!”

“One free defensive equipment mini pot for the corresponding level each day?!” [TL Note: same thing as loot boxes.]

“+10 equipment reinforcement coupons?! For no more than 5 crystals?!”

“My goodness!” He put his hands on his face and yelled, “Crazy! The shop owner will lose so much money!”

“+10 reinforcement coupons! One such coupon can trade for a top-level spiritual artifact! We can buy it for only 5 crystals in the game now?!”

“No! I’ve got to go online and see...” Xu Zhu thought, but then he hesitated. “Isn’t it too dangerous for me to stay still here...”

“I...” He felt like his brain had turned blank. When he thought that he could buy +10 reinforcement coupons, he decided to take the risk. “I can leave right after getting the reinforcement coupon!”

With gritted teeth, he hurried to the shop and logged into the game.

Sure enough, he saw a new option on the game interface for claiming gifts.

He immediately claimed the gifts.

[You obtain Black Diamond Membership for one day.]

“Hahahaha! I can indeed get a free Black Diamond Membership!” Xu Zhu laughed and glanced around as if he were afraid that someone would take it from him.

He was about to get offline and leave when he saw something. On the inference, it stated that the players could get more gifts the longer they stayed in the game.

“I can have 3 free defensive equipment mini pots after ten minutes?!” He hesitated. “Then, I’ll play for ten more minutes...”

“Oh... I’ll see how to buy the +10 reinforcement coupons...”

“Mysterious gift bag...? Do I need to buy this...?” With a frown, he read the description of this mysterious gift bag. It seemed like there were 14 potential rewards in the bag, and the players could buy one each day with different items in them. Even with the worst luck, he could certainly buy a +10 reinforcement coupon in 14 days.

“14 days... It will only cost dozens of crystals!” He didn’t believe that the shop would be so generous that players could buy a +10 reinforcement coupon with a few crystals. After reading this message, he found that it was more believable!

Dozens of crystals were a price that he could accept.

Should I... play for a few more days ...?! He decided that he would leave after he got the reinforcement coupon!

...

– Meanwhile, in the godly palace –

“Lord Vanguard General, you seem to be in a good mood!” A lazy voice came from outside the palace.

An exotic beauty walked in. She wore a set of black body-fitting leather armor and had long, curly golden hair. She also had two golden patterns between her brows.

She walked like a lazy cat, elegant and silent. If she hadn’t spoken, no one would have noticed that she had walked in.

“Hahahaha!” A series of laughter came from the room. “I find it interesting to watch the ants struggle before death; I wonder if they know that all their efforts are futile.”

“Isn’t it more interesting to watch them struggle in vain and try to hold on?” the woman smirked and said.

“Then...” The man waved his hand, and the image of a huge city appeared before them. “Let’s watch how these ants struggle!”

The scene before them changed into a prosperous ancient city.

It was Yuanyang City.

They saw large groups of cultivators and warriors.

“Let’s go! Hurry to the shop! We can get gifts after logging in! We can get a Black Diamond Membership and +10 reinforcement coupons!”

“We’re rich! The shop owner is actually giving out free reinforcement coupons! Let’s go and get them!”

“Hahahaha! Hurry! Don’t let the others get ahead of us!” In the crowd, two figures hidden in black robes whispered to each other.

The people in the palace watched the scene in a daze, and they were at a loss for words.

They were stupefied.
