Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
Seeing the strange and ingenious spiritual spells, G.o.ds, demons, and the fun incidents between humans and demons, many customers were drawn into this interesting TV Series.
“Waiting for this for 1,000 years…” Fairy Qing Yun hummed subconsciously and wondered, Most of the games and TV Series in the shop focus on battles of spiritual spells or wars. There is Arad which is fraught with dangers and StarCraft, full of wars and schemes. However, this TV Series is very different from them.
She watched four episodes in one seating. “Awesome! If the thrilling battles in the E-Sports compet.i.tion are like the spicy and sour instant noodles in the shop, then the Legend of the White Snake is as sweet, refres.h.i.+ng, and lingering as the red iced tea.”
Working as janitors in the shop, Jessica and her companions were eager to watch this TV Series.
“What is this Legend of the White Snake? It seems like they are all enthralled by it.”
Having just finished the first four episodes, Sia put down the virtual reality headset and then sang poorly in a heavy accent, “West Lake is so beautiful in March…”
“Spring drizzle is as sweet as wine, and the willow trees with new spouts look like mist!” The Tang Family Master sitting near her continued where she left off.
“If we are destined, we will meet even if we are 1,000 kilometers apart!” Fairy Qing Yun sang with high spirits, thinking it was also fate that brought together the cultivators and warriors from different places. After all, they wouldn’t have met each other all their lives if not for the shop since they lived extremely far from each other.
“What’s wrong with the people in this internet café?!” Hearing the singing in the shop, Jessica, Kevin, and Carl were bewildered with brooms in hand.
What’s wrong with these people? They were all watching the TV Series, but now they are having a singing compet.i.tion?
Hearing their cheerful voices, the three’s faces twitched as they thought, How come you are all so happy? Are you even worried about us the invaders?
Um… No. The three realized that they were now janitors.
Furious at their situation, Jessica grabbed a handful of potato chips and stuffed them into her mouth while cussing silently in resentment, I can handle 100 natives at the level of these people!
No. Without spiritual patterns, I can only handle about ten…
At this moment, someone yelled, “The garbage bins are almost full. Where are the janitors?”
“I’m here!” Jessica answered without thinking.
“Go! Go! Go! Hurry up!”
“Um…”
She was furious, wis.h.i.+ng that she could kill the shop owner.
At 8 PM, the first two episodes of Legend of the White Snake were played on the big screens.
In the Jiuhua City Shop, the nearby civilians, rich and poor, had the habit of gathering in the shop to watch two free episodes of TV Series each day on the livestream.
The moon had just come up. Gongzi Xiao sat down on the couch and poured himself a cup of wine that he bought from Wind and Moon Pavilion, enjoying the new TV Series.
Meanwhile, the janitors in Yuanyang City Shop each poured themselves a cup of iced red tea with tears on their faces. “Finally, we can watch it…”
“Finally, we can watch it…”
“Oh-! There are actually G.o.ds in this world?”
“This Guanyin looks very powerful…”
“A mortal can summon the Vault G.o.d with a casual yell? How come there are so many G.o.ds and immortals in this world?!”
-Two hours later-
From the couch, Jessica sang, “West Lake is so beautiful…”
The customers walking by looked at them with weird expressions.
“Master, will catastrophe strike our Spiritual State or not?” Zhuge Yu asked as she sat on the couch and watched the Legend of the White Snake one more time.
“Of course, it will!” Sitting nearby, Carl said with a snort.
“How do you know?” The young girl looked at him in doubt.
“Um…” With his face twitching, Carl finally explained after a long pause, “In the vast void, weak existences are always easy targets for predators, which is the cause of almost all wars.”
Before Fang Qi traveled through s.p.a.ce and time, he had heard someone say, “The universe is a dark forest, and each civilization is a hunter with guns. They walked in the forest stealthily like ghosts and lightly moved away the tree branches that blocked their way, trying their best not to make any sounds. The forest is full of hunters just like them. If they find another civilization, they will do only one thing: burn and destroy it.”
Mr. Fang came over and sat down. While scratching his head, he said, “Why have wars? Isn’t it better to have an E-Sports compet.i.tion?”
“…” The outlanders’ faces twitched, and they didn’t feel like talking to Mr. Fang.
If they could defeat this guy, they would bring him back and whip him 100 times with force.
…
Having finally finished the task of E-Sports compet.i.tion and other ch.o.r.es in the shop, Mr. Fang had just come out of the Game Cultivation Room.
“Um?” At this moment, Fang Qi dug out a pretty golden rock from his pocket.
“This is…” He finally remembered that this was one of the three things that he won from Jessica when they betted against each other. The other two objects that he had won were the Shadow Cloak and the Blade of Curse.
Fang Qi remembered the System telling him that this rock contained tremendous energy when Jessica took it out.
In fact, the System took most of the income of the shop so that it could have enough energy to produce and maintain the big worlds shown in the games and movies. It also needed energy to maintain the foundation of the lightning punishment system in the shop.
In fact, to finish the tasks, Mr. Fang had spent lots of his money. Also, he used a lot of money when playing Dungeon Fighter Online. Right now, he found that he was a little poor.
Should I sell this rock?
[The System is taking it in…]
[a.n.a.lyzing the energy…]
“Hey!” Dumbfounded, Mr. Fang watched as the rock vanished just like the crystals that the shop had earned. “How come it’s gone?!”
“System! F*ck! Spit it out for me! You stole my treasure! Are you a dog?!”
“F*ck! If you don’t spit it out right now, I’ll stop working!”
The System replied, [Burp…]
Mr. Fang’s face darkened. “d.a.m.n you. I’ve never seen a System as shameless as you!”
At this moment, Fang Qi heard the System’s voice again. [The system energy is prepared. New privileges are being activated.]
[Cross-Plane Teleportation is getting ready.]
[The new task is activated.]
[New task: Cross-Plane Internet
Task Description: Do you want to build a unique internet system? Young Man, get up and move]
Mr. Fang replied, [No! I don’t want to go anywhere!]
The young man had lost his dreams.
The System was at a loss for words.
