Chapter 126: Let's Go to the Battlefield, Sal and Xiaozhen
Let’s go back to 5 pm on October 23rd.
Xia Qingqing killed another wave of monsters and gained a lot of points. Just as she was about to make further progress, she suddenly heard the broadcast voice above her head ringing again.
Dear warriors, the "Kill the Monster" mini-game will end in half an hour. Please cherish your time.
"It's already five o'clock!" Xia Qingqing looked at her watch and was surprised to find that time passed so quickly.
At this moment, a smaller monster, whose color was very similar to the surrounding "white clouds", suddenly rushed out and attacked Xia Qingqing's back. Before she turned around, Xia Qingqing felt the sound of breaking wind behind her and the unique fishy smell of the monster.
Her eyes lit up slightly, and she thought that she was going to earn another point. However, before she turned around, the monster that attacked her was blown away by a pair of white wings. It was the wings of the Sword Bird!
He tilted his head, the green hat on his head was brightly colored, and he smiled at her with a clear and gentle smile, "Sister Xia, are you okay?"
Xia Qingqing shook her head, pointing at him and then at the monster that had been knocked to the ground. "You guys can still beat monsters?"
Dao Que nodded. "Of course, we often see monsters roaming around my hometown. Sometimes they even rush into our homes and wreak havoc. But our Puff Bird abilities are useless against monsters, so we've formed an alliance with the Earth Dragon to fight against these monster invasions. Besides searching for food, we usually train to fight monsters."
"Is that so!" Xia Qingqing nodded. It seems that the Puccinators and the Ground Dragons, like the dwarves and tree spirits, are also races with stories!
Because only the hands on Daoque's body looked like wings, the rest of his body was exactly the same as a human, and his language and expression were very vivid, not like a fake at all. Therefore, Xia Qingqing did not regard him as an NPC. Since Daoque helped her, she thanked him sincerely.
Dao Que felt embarrassed and waved his wings. "Sister Xia is a warrior. Those monsters are greedy and cunning. They are good at using sneak attacks and bewitching people. Everyone has the responsibility to eliminate the monsters."
Xia Qingqing asked, "Ah, why?"
Hatred appeared in Dao Que's eyes, "My brothers and sisters from the same nest were eaten alive by monsters."
Xia Qingqing said subconsciously: "I'm sorry for bringing up your sad past."
"It's okay. Many years have passed, and I don't think about it anymore. What's even more hateful is that monsters will pollute the land and food. Although our lives have improved a lot since we, the Puff Birds, formed an alliance with the Earth Dragon, we still have to rush around for food every day."
Daoque continued, "We, the Puffbirds, are on good terms with the dwarf elves. We saw that the dwarf elves were working for the headmaster, and with his protection, not only did we not have to live under the shadow of monsters, but we also received a salary. So, our headmaster sent us here to work as well."
——Wow, the world view of Paradise is so well connected.
——Has anyone noticed that whether it was the tree spirit and dwarf who came first, or the puff bird that appeared last, they all seemed to be in awe of the director, and they all came to the park to work.
——Haha, it’s just the principal’s bad taste.
Seeing Dao Que's satisfied expression as if he had finally lived a good life, Xia Qingqing asked curiously, "In that case, how much are your salaries?"
Hearing this, Daoque flapped his wings excitedly, "I can get ten kilograms of food for just one day of work in the paradise!"
Xia Qingqing: ...
Daoque seemed very proud, and proudly said with his face held high: "Ten kilograms of food a day, thirty days is three hundred kilograms of food!"
Xia Qingqing hesitated for a moment, "What else?"
Dao Que immediately said, "The director also provides us with food and accommodation, and gives us two days off every month. He is truly the most generous boss I have ever met. It would be great if I could work at Fantasy Park forever."
Xia Qingqing: ...
Not only Xia Qingqing, but the audience in the live broadcast room were speechless for a moment.
——Did I calculate it wrong or Daoque was wrong? Three hundred kilograms of food a month, let's calculate it based on rice at three yuan per kilogram, then Daoque's monthly salary is 900 yuan?
—Nine hundred yuan…that's outrageous. And only two days off a month…even the black-hearted capitalists would be stunned.
——But it's not that much. Dao Que didn't say what kind of food the director gave him. What if it was potatoes at 50 cents a pound? Then Dao Que's monthly salary would be 150... God, just thinking about it makes me feel so pitiful.
—The director is quite resourceful. Even with this little salary, he's got a bunch of handsome guys completely devoted to him. The quality of service, this group of handsome men... I'd believe them if they said they made 90,000 yuan a month.
——The capitalists’ methods are so horrific. The most advanced means of exploitation is to make the workers feel grateful to the exploiters while being exploited.
——Knock on the basin, handsome guy, come to my house, I will give you a thousand a month and two days off a week, look at me, look at me!
——Something is wrong, something is very wrong. Is there a possibility that the director is actually an evil demon king, and the park does not have any holographic technology at all. The monsters were all created by him, and these handsome men and beautiful women were abducted by him from another world. They have to work here because they are afraid of the director's power.
—Aren't monsters said to be created by evil gods? Another possibility is that the director is the opposite of the evil god, creating a paradise specifically to stir up trouble and bringing in strange races from another world to brainwash them.
—Hiss! This is really possible. Otherwise, why has the Fantasy Park been going from strength to strength after all this time with no international news on any technological updates? Maybe this is the truth!
Chi Yizheng randomly opened a live broadcast room and saw comments similar to the above. Although he knew that netizens were just joking, he had to say that the more outrageous the things were, the more likely they were to be close to the truth.
He was sitting in his dormitory watching the data.
The 100 million online viewership requirement for the side quest has now surpassed 30 million thanks to constant publicity and online support. And with the week still only halfway through, there are still six days left of the weekly event! Over the next six days, breaking the 100 million online viewership mark should be no problem.
Facts have proved that the audience of television is much larger than that of mobile phones, Weibo, Baidu and other platforms. Advertising on CCTV on Fantasy Park is more effective than he expected. It is worth his calling leaders everywhere in the past two days.
After confirming that all the data was correct, that all departments in the park were operating efficiently, and that no accidents had occurred during the event with a large increase in traffic, Chi Yizhen felt relieved and began to turn his attention to the third map.
The so-called third map has been explained clearly before. It is the undeveloped land behind the park.
Previously, Chi Yizheng rented 1,000 acres of land behind the theme park from the government. After continuous development, the theme park used up nearly 400 acres of land, leaving only 600 acres.
Originally, part of the 600 acres of land was to be reserved for a new project, but his predictive skills sensed the arrival of a level 30 monster, so the game released a side quest at the right time. Coincidentally, Xinglong and Puchi Bird came to apply for jobs, so Chi Yizheng put them in.
The 600-plus acres of land seemed quite large, but after putting in a thousand ground dragons and puff birds, it was clearly not enough. So, for the sake of the tourists' experience, Chi Yizhen reduced the number of ground dragons and puff birds again and again, leaving only a total of 200.
So for the warriors who are ranked in the top 1,000 in points in large-scale events, it’s not that I’m too stingy with you, but the park is too small to accommodate so many ground dragons. Even if you squeeze in, you can’t run away!
"I can't help it. Good mounts are always rare. Even in the cheapest web games, not everyone can own one. If the tourists have too many objections, then... then I can only pretend I didn't hear them."
He muttered to himself, his gaze still fixed on the arena. After just a few glances, he exclaimed with joy, "Yes, the trick we used to trick the monsters was quite successful. Many tourists have completely overcome their fear of monsters."
By this time, the third map was almost entirely covered in white clouds spewed out by the earth dragons. These white mists resembled a pair of snow-white foam bubbles, surging and drifting on the green ocean. Only where the monster tide passed could large expanses of lush green grass be seen. Chi Yizhen's consciousness looked down at the map from high above, like looking down at a sea of clouds through the window of an airplane.
At this time, there are several thousand tourists entering the third map. Among them, the top 100 echelons represented by Xiao Zhou have the highest points ranking. More than half of these people have a temperament completely different from ordinary tourists. They are candidates sent by the country.
The team represented by Zhang Minmin and others was interrupted in the points ranking. Although Zhang Minmin and others were the team in the original Prank City and the first group of tourists to bind the Red-Eyed Pokémon, they include students and office workers. They don't have as much time as Xiao Zhou who goes to the park to do live broadcasts every day, and they are even less likely to compare with the national team who trains every day. Therefore, they are lagging behind in both strength and ranking.
Ranked in the third group are tourists like Xia Qingqing who have not visited the park often but are naturally spiritual. Those in similar situations include Lin Lanlan, Meng Linlin, Lu Yiyi and others.
At the bottom of the list are some wealthy tourists who have money and free time. Among them, the more talented ones include He Jing, who may not have killed monsters many times, but has a lot of money and is very experienced in using and matching extraordinary props. She can play very well on the field, but due to the lack of cooperation from teammates, her points ranking is not high.
"Now the top 100 people on the merit list have basically reached the extraordinary level of 8 or above, the top 1,000 are above level 5, and the top 10,000 are above level 3. Although there are many people and their levels are not too low, it is still a bit difficult to fight a level 30 monster." Chi Yi really didn't want to wait until the time was up and the monster was not killed. That would be really embarrassing, and the longer the time dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for the paradise. Who knows whether the level 30 monster would transmit information to the leech across the world.
"We have to think of a way." He leaned back in his chair and said, "Sal, Xiaozhen, this time you will represent the righteous side and go to the battlefield together!"
