A dream lasting a thousand years ends with waking up in a modern society where spiritual energy has dried up.
Qin Fu'an had already planned to lie flat and wait for his cultivation to fad...
89. Mysterious Dream Fairy Tale (12)
Yuanyuan is so naughty, but I love her so much!
Leaving the passageway, we returned to the cram school classroom once again.
Qin Fu'an was carefully held in the hands of the little sunflower. The little guy was also extra vigilant, using one of his little hands to try to cover him up so that the other toy children wouldn't see him.
"You got it back!"
"The kitten seems to be having second thoughts."
"The kitten says it doesn't want that toy, it wants this one you have."
Would you trade with the kitten again?
The toy children swarmed around, chattering and asking questions all at once.
The little sunflower looked through the gap they had made and met the kitten's green eyes, which were almost identical to Qin Fu'an's.
The little sunflower frowned, hugging the piggy bank tightly as it coldly refused, "No! This is already my toy. You threw it away yourself, and it won't choose you again."
After saying that, Little Sunflower went straight to her seat and placed the lucky cat piggy bank neatly inside the desk.
I even moved it outwards a bit so that it could see it when it lowers its head.
Qin Fu'an found it amusing. He had previously thought that Xie Yunhuai, who was 18 years old, was a malnourished child who hadn't been properly raised. He never expected that in this dream scenario, Xie Yunhuai would actually become a child who needed to carry a small schoolbag to tutoring classes.
Although it is essentially just a toy.
A minute before class, Little Sunflower secretly reached out and touched the head of the lucky cat, then whispered to Qin Fu'an, "You stay here obediently and don't run away, or I'll get angry, you know?"
Under its gaze, the lucky cat piggy bank seemed to be smiling again, nodding at it as it smiled.
A strange joy seemed to rise in her heart. The little sunflower, out of the lucky cat's sight, secretly smiled, her clear eyes curving slightly. It looked more real and adorable than the big smiles that the sunflower doctor deliberately displayed in Fairy Tale City.
Actually, the best place is still on the desktop.
Because there are many toys in the classroom, the children put their toys on the corner of the table, just like the kitten did before.
By staying on the table, Qin Fu'an could observe the changes and movements of the toys, see if there were any connections between them, and gather more information.
But since Little Sunflower had found him a safer spot, Qin Fu'an naturally accepted this thoughtful and considerate treatment.
As for collecting information?
As a teacher, Xie Zeyuan, standing in front of the podium, should be able to take in every little movement below.
Qin Fu'an, utterly lacking in morality and conscience, simply closed his eyes and rested for a while during the next tutoring class.
Toys need to sleep too, let alone the human soul contained within their bodies?
Although Qin Fu'an is not human, when he integrated into the human world, he consciously imitated human routines and lifestyles, so roughly speaking, he also needs to sleep.
After all, players have to stay in Fairy Tale City for a month. If every day in this instance is a combination of Fairy Tale City and the Dream World, then players who have no rest time and are constantly in the midst of tasks and crises probably won't be able to last long.
Therefore, we still need to make the most of every opportunity to rest.
Just as Xie Zeyuan said when he was dealing with Little Sunflower, don't easily disturb other people's rest time.
Both of them were making the most of their time to rest and maintain a calm and rational mind.
However, this short rest period did not continue smoothly and peacefully as Qin Fu'an had hoped.
Another toy that embodies the player's soul has died.
Right here in this classroom.
And more and more toys are dying one after another.
And the culprit...
"That student did a great job! Would any other students like to come up to the front and demonstrate what it's like to be hurt by humans? Maybe after seeing that, your teacher and classmates can help you find ways to avoid being hurt the same way again!"
Xie Zeyuan's soft, ghostly voice echoed in the classroom, and the seductive intent in her words amplified the malice in the hearts of these toy children to its maximum extent in just a few breaths.
One child after another raised their little hands, all eager to go on stage and show off.
Perhaps it was because the scene was so enjoyable, or perhaps it was because it secretly harbored some other warning thoughts, but in any case, when the second toy child brought his toy onto the stage, Little Sunflower took Qin Fu'an out of the table and placed him neatly on the table so that he could also see this unique and lively scene.
Qin Fu'an met Xie Zeyuan's gaze as Xie Zeyuan looked up, and clearly saw the pleasure and malice in the other's eyes.
He was enjoying the killing he had orchestrated.
These pursuers, in their dazed state, were unaware that the one who killed them was their target player.
They probably thought it was an NPC in a dungeon.
Qin Fu'an smiled slightly, watching the scene calmly. He watched the toys struggle to resist and escape, but in the end, they could only be held tightly by the toy children, who then carefully etched the injuries they had suffered onto them time and time again.
Most toys can't talk.
So it was a silent, bloodless massacre.
The perpetrators stood by as spectators, while the executioners were a group of innocent yet cruel children. In the entire classroom, only the toys suffered all the harm, unable to resist, powerless to escape, and covered in wounds.
However, in the eyes of the audience, it was still full of incongruity and discomfort.
From their perspective, these toys being tortured are living, breathing players, streamers they follow and chat with.
Now, one by one, right before their eyes, they are either badly injured and near death, or they die on the spot, turning the live stream room into complete darkness.
This is clearly just a low-level, difficult dungeon.
This is clearly just a normal competitive game designed to extend the timeframe and reduce the risk.
On the very first day, so many players died, and most of the survivors were covered in injuries.
Of course, some players used items, and one player even used a precious substitute item.
But this is only the first night!
What are they going to do with a whole month to go?
Just by putting yourself in the player's shoes, viewers can feel an overwhelming sense of suffocation and despair.
They wanted to condemn the culprit, but when they arrived at Xie Zeyuan's live stream, all they saw was cheers and celebrations, because Xie Zeyuan was not only the culprit, but also the initial victim.
He was just retaliating, he just wanted to save his life, what could be wrong with that?
[If you hadn't issued a kill order against the streamer first, and hadn't relentlessly pursued him like hyenas, insisting on chasing him into this instance, how could he have ended up like this?]
[Agreed. Other players provoked the streamer first. The one who starts it is the one who's in the wrong. They can't shamelessly expect the streamer to just stand there and not struggle or resist, letting others kill them, can they?]
[Hilarious! I finally understand what "only the magistrate is allowed to set fires" really means from this group of viewers. If I remember correctly, when those guild players were hunting down the streamer in the last dungeon, you viewers all flocked to the streamer's channel to light candles and predict his death, even betting on when he would be killed. Now that the tables have turned, you can't stand it?]
[They deserve it. I've long been fed up with the ganging behavior of the four major guilds. They ruin perfectly good dungeons, and many solo players who are already struggling have to swallow their anger and suffer losses when they encounter them in dungeons, being used as cannon fodder to scout ahead. I have absolutely no good feelings towards guild players!]
[A group of bandits, now they've been killed in return. Shouldn't they just accept their fate? It was the guild that held a grudge and issued the kill order; it was a guild member who provoked the streamer in the dungeon first. When the guild players accepted the kill order and entered, didn't they think they'd die? They deserve it!]
Besides the angry condemnations and criticisms, and the few viewers who were still struggling to speak up for other players, everyone discovered that there was another, more special group of viewers in the live stream.
Bystanders.
Instead of engaging in debate and condemnation, the audience cheered and invited more people to join the live stream to watch the spectacle.
Not only that, they would also occasionally step in and deliberately incite the audience who were originally unable to make a fuss, so that they would continue to argue and make a scene.
[See, I told you this livestream would be lively! What's the point of just sitting in that love-obsessed streamer's room?]
[Hahahaha, do you love-struck fools know what I mean? But to be fair, it's really lively here! It's a shame we can't have real-person battles in the livestream, otherwise we could see even more exciting scenes!]
[This brings back the feeling I had before I started following these love-obsessed streamers! This is the kind of atmosphere a proper game streamer's channel should have! Unlike those other streamers, who seem to have nothing to do but find and treat their wives well! I condemn every love-obsessed streamer who distorts the essence of gaming!]
[Don't say that! We still need to go back. Be careful, there might be a traitor hiding here. What if they report us when we get back? A lovestruck person can be far more terrifying than this place!]
[Ahem... We're just here to watch the fun, we have no intention of switching servers to follow other players, really!]
[Yes, yes, we're just here to watch the show, to be bystanders. Don't mind us, everyone. Keep fighting if you want to fight, keep cursing if you want to curse, don't just stand there!]
[Hilarious! You guys are only bullying the streamer because he's a toy in a dream and can't speak. Otherwise, you'd see if he wouldn't shut you up.]
[No, the viewers in the live stream take turns watching, and the platform maintains a certain level of traffic. The slight drop-off won't be noticed by him... probably?]
[I don't know why, but I always feel that these two streamers, one next door and one here, are the kind of people who are full of bad intentions and not good people at all.]
[Why don't they team up? Look at what happened to the other players. This is only because the streamer next door didn't intervene. If he had gotten involved, this dungeon would probably be deserted.]
[Yuanyuan is so naughty, but I love her so much!]
[Livestream: I love how bad the streamer is; Reality: Ahhhhh, you pervert! Stay away from me!!!]
Xie Zeyuan's live stream was in complete chaos, and things weren't much better for Qin Fu'an.
Because a swarm of bees were busy carrying "traitorous quotes" from the neighboring live stream room for him.
Immediately afterwards, the audience who had sneaked back to check on the situation discovered the group of bees. While strongly condemning them, they offered a variety of excuses in an attempt to cover up the fact that they had climbed the wall to watch the excitement.
Actually, they all act superior and bossy towards other streamers, but... Qin Fu'an is different.
[Author's Note]
Anzai: Honey, don't look, he's a bad guy.
Yuanyuan: ? ? ?
Yes, that's right, today I'm going to write 10,000 words in a fit of rage to do good for my team! (gritting my teeth) I refuse to believe they can't even win one big game!
