Chapter 289: Chapter 268: “I’ve got nothing better to do anyway; might as well feed data to the basic AI.
PS: The editor is on weekend leave, and the previous chapter is still under review.
I’ll just give a brief overview of the last chapter’s plot, and you can skip to today’s chapter if you like. We’re only releasing one 4000-word chapter today to keep the full attendance for this month going.
Let’s save the remaining chapters and wait until tomorrow when the editor is back at work and approves them, then we’ll release them all at once.
After all, reading discontinuously and releasing too many chapters doesn’t make sense, and it becomes incomprehensible.
Summary of the previous chapter’s plot: Mr. Qiang is from Logitech Star, similar to the players from Sand Star within the 3rd Star System; their race is hermaphroditic. After President Sun received notice of danger, he went to seek a strategy with the Black Dragon Commerce Guild.
…
“Ugh!”
The girl in the pink dress, who hadn’t finished vomiting, couldn’t help but bring up whatever little food was left in her stomach after hearing those words!
She would rather have her mouth stuffed full of cigarette butts than climb onto a bed with a giant roach covered in feelers!!
She genuinely hoped those damn Sand Star players would be exterminated by Chen Yi soon!!!
“The first time I heard about this, I had the same reaction as you,” said the girl next to her, her expression somewhat unpleasant, but she added, “Although Sand Star players’ appearance is a bit poor, they are actually quite gentle. Before their interests are touched, they are generally gentlefolk.”
“Of course, even if they are gentlefolk, they are still roach gentlefolk.”
…
“Chairman Li.”
With a grim face, President Sun sat across from the chairman of the Black Dragon Guild and said word by word, “You can’t blame me this time. Mr. Qiang came to find me, and I couldn’t keep hiding information for that Chen Yi whom I’ve never met.”
“Even if it means offending Chen Yi, that’s a problem for later.”
“But if I had been stubborn then, I probably wouldn’t be able to see you now.”
“And you used to tell me, players who leave the 3rd Star System never return, right? How did Mr. Qiang come back?”
“In principle, that’s the case,”
said the chairman of the Black Dragon Guild with a hint of helplessness: “Players who leave the Star System go to a place called the Starfield, a vast land where many races compete with their own kind.”
“It’s also an extremely cruel place.”
“Any player who leaves their Star System never returns, firstly because it requires paying an exorbitant interstellar ticket fee, and secondly, because there’s a rule in this level-up game.”
“Any player who returns to their own Star System cannot take away any prop, Skill Fragment, Points, or even a speck of dust.”
“Because of these two reasons, players who leave their own Star Systems almost never return to their own planets. It’s an action devoid of benefit and remarkably foolish.”
“But—”
Chairman Li hesitated for a moment before sighing, “But before Qiu Hao of Solar Star died, he left a Hundred Generations Bounty, which made the players who had left the 3rd Star System salivate like hungry wolves at the sight of fat meat.”
“According to the bounty rules,”
“even players from outside the 3rd Star System can claim this bounty and successfully take it out of the 3rd Star System.”
“Hundreds of millions of Points, an S-grade prop, over a dozen A-grade props, even for those who have left the 3rd Star System like Logitech Star, it’s a significant temptation. Their purpose for coming here is very clear, it is to deal with Chen Yi.”@@novelbin@@
“It shouldn’t involve us since that brings them no benefit whatsoever.”
“However, we need to consider that only players who have left the 3rd Star System can return. For example, players who leave the 4th Star System cannot possibly go to the 4th Star System, but from the 3rd Star System, it’s not just the Logitech Star.”
“If… if too many forces return to the 3rd Star System, then the conflicts that arise among these forces could very likely affect us.”
“What should we do?”
With a somewhat flustered expression, President Sun asked.
“Two options.”
“The first one, let Chen Yi take action quickly to eliminate Logitech Star, which could also deter forces that have not yet entered the 3rd Star System.”
“The second one, make Logitech Star eliminate Blue Star as soon as possible, and then leave the 3rd Star System with the bounty; this way, any subsequent wars won’t break out within the 3rd Star System.”
“The best solution is still the second one. Even if Chen Yi takes action against Logitech Star, there will always be forces continuing to enter the 3rd Star System, but once the bounty is taken away, the 3rd Star System will finally find peace.”
“Are you suggesting…”
President Sun narrowed his eyes and stared at Chairman Li, enunciating every word, “Are you saying we should help Logitech Star against Chen Yi?”
“Mhm.”
The chairman of the Black Dragon Guild slowly set down his teacup and nodded slightly.
“But haven’t you always advocated not to offend Chen Yi?”
“No.”
Chairman Li calmly shook his head, “No gambler will place their bets on one option forever. When Chen Yi and Solar Star were at odds, we naturally bet on Chen Yi. But when Chen Yi’s opponent is an old power that has left the 3rd Star System, our bets naturally cannot remain on Chen Yi.”
“Facing such an old force that has already passed the threefold trial, Chen Yi’s chances of winning are not great.”
“I have analyzed all of Chen Yi’s battles.”
“Based on my judgment, Chen Yi’s no-cooldown buff likely comes from the woman with him.”
