11 Menggui High School (11)
Special title for new streamers: Rising Star
The cafeteria remained so quiet that only the sound of chewing could be heard.
Qin Fu'an walked back to the food serving window, smiled, and tapped on the transparent glass.
"Could I have a teacher's lunch, please?" This time, instead of showing his student ID, he pulled out a substitute teacher's certificate that had appeared out of nowhere from his pocket.
Surprisingly, yet not so surprisingly, the pig-headed man who had previously berated Qin Fu'an for wasting time immediately put on a fawning smile and respectfully asked Qin Fu'an to wait a moment when he saw the substitute teacher's qualification certificate.
The window was transparent, and Qin Fu'an glanced to the side and saw the kitchen quickly preparing the teachers' lunch he needed.
Fresh meat, fresh vegetables, and the pig-headed man's perfect knife skills...
Qin Fu'an scoffed, glanced down at the teacher's certificate between his fingers, then casually twirled it and put it back into his school uniform pocket.
His actions after arriving at the cafeteria not only stunned the other players, but also the viewers in the live stream who were waiting for him to do something reckless.
[Wait, can someone explain to me why that homeroom teacher suddenly went berserk??]
[I noticed this newbie player was quite talkative before, but now I think I underestimated his mouth. Compared to his pretty green eyes, his mouth is definitely more terrifying!!]
[No, isn't your focus a bit off? He's clearly not a human being!!!]
[However, it doesn't contain any racial attacks.]
[I can testify, he really doesn't seem human! What normal human being has eyes like that?]
[@Livestream, can you explain this? Do they stop considering race when selecting players?]
[Holy crap, this is exciting! This is the first time I've ever seen a non-human creature outside of a dungeon. Following!]
[Follow +1, I love watching the streamer completely charm these weirdos.]
[...]
From the moment Qin Fu'an carried the plate of paste to sit down next to the homeroom teacher, the popularity of the live stream began to rise steadily. When Qin Fu'an pulled out the substitute teacher qualification certificate that had appeared out of thin air from his pocket, the number of online viewers finally reached a certain limit.
At the same moment, a cold, mechanical voice rang in Qin Fu'an's ears.
"Hello player, congratulations on your live stream room reaching over 1000 online viewers and over 50000+ popularity, successfully enabling live stream interaction privileges ahead of schedule."
"Hello player, congratulations on activating your live streaming interaction privileges ahead of schedule. To reward your outstanding performance in the game, the game's official team will award you a special title for new streamers: Rising Star."
"Click to view the streamer's related titles and information."
Amid a series of friendly and polite voices, there was indeed a ding-dong notification sound that was easily overlooked.
But Qin Fu'an didn't check the information immediately; instead, he looked up at the live stream screen that had suddenly appeared in front of him.
The light screen appeared silently, and apart from Qin Fu'an, the other players seemed unable to see its existence.
That makes sense, though. Otherwise, if every player could see everyone else's screen, the live stream and the game would probably be in chaos long ago.
As he pondered, a dense barrage of colorful comments kept scrolling across the live stream screen in front of him.
[Wow! Rising star! This is the first time I've ever witnessed a new streamer receive this player title!]
[Viewer "Saw Something Strange Again Today" tipped player with 10 Super Moon tokens.]
[A viewer named "歌舞诶" gifted player "血色月亮" 5 units.]
[Ahhhh, witnessing the rise of a new star streamer! This is only his first game instance, and I'm already looking forward to seeing him dominate the beginner and intermediate game instances!]
[Hey streamer, can you see our comments? Friendly reminder: actively interacting with your viewers can significantly boost the live stream's popularity!]
[A viewer named "I'm really broke" gifted the player 3 copies of the "Mysterious Villa" item.]
[Upstairs, if you call this being broke, then what am I, who can't even afford the Starlight Barrage?!]
As the barrage of comments scrolled by, Qin Fu'an also clicked on the player instructions in the upper right corner of the screen.
1: Players cannot decide whether to close the live stream. This live stream will automatically open after entering the game and accepting the main quest, and will automatically close when the player dies or successfully completes the game.
2: During the game instance, collusion with spectators to cheat is strictly prohibited. If discovered, the difficulty of the current instance will be automatically increased, and all of the player's current popularity points will be deducted.
3: The source of viewers in the live stream is unknown, and there may be malicious behaviors such as deliberately inducing players to fight each other and die. Players are advised to make their own judgments.
4. During the period when a player is bound to this game's live stream, they are prohibited from disclosing relevant information to any non-player entity outside the game for any reason. Once discovered, they will be banned on the spot.
5: This live stream room...
The first thing you see is a long list of rules that players need to follow, as well as rules for redeeming points based on the popularity of the live stream.
Qin Fu'an glanced through the comments briefly before finally focusing on the barrage of messages that were still scrolling by.
According to viewers in the live chat, this so-called "rising star" title seems extremely rare.
Qin Fu'an also noticed that in the upper left corner of the screen, there was a small flame representing the popularity of the live stream, and the number next to it was climbing rapidly. This meant that within just a few minutes, countless viewers were entering his live stream directly through some channel.
When Qin Fu'an saw a dazzling comment that read, "[Is this the player who just got the 'Rising Star' title? Why are his eyes green? He doesn't look particularly strong either. Could his previous popularity have come from his face?]", he raised an eyebrow with interest.
He raised his hand and touched his face, chuckling, "Looks like even in bizarre live streams, having a good-looking face is part of the skill?"
There was a moment of silence in the comments section, followed quickly by a barrage of shimmering starlight.
[Let me translate for those viewers who didn't understand: What the host meant was: I know I'm good-looking, but I didn't expect even ghosts to be so appearance-obsessed. Does that mean I'm guaranteed to dominate this competition?]
Upon seeing this long, distinctive "translation," Qin Fu'an not only refrained from explaining that the other party was overthinking things, but instead nodded quite confidently, saying, "That's right, the translation by this friend with the ID 'Midnight Moonlight' is correct; every word is what I truly feel."
He thought for a moment, then added with a hint of admiration in his smile, "Since you understand me so well, you'll be my personal translator from now on."
The audience: "..."
I was careless. I have never seen such a shameless player before!
Even the viewer named "Midnight Moonlight" remained silent for a few seconds before slowly posting a new comment.
[Viewer "Midnight Moonlight" tipped player Crimson Moon x1.]
This is how Qin Fu'an coaxed him into agreeing with just one sentence, which also means that for a long time to come, as long as Qin Fu'an doesn't die, Ziye Shaiyueguang will definitely keep an eye on every game live stream he does.
In short, Qin Fu'an tricked a die-hard viewer into giving him free gold coins and providing free translation with just one sentence.
Other audience members: "..."
What kind of magic does this player possess? Is a casual compliment from him really that powerful?!
Damn it! Why wasn't I the one being praised?!
During our chat, the pig-headed chef came over carrying a fragrant lunch.
It smiled obsequiously and bowed as it handed the item to Qin Fu'an.
Qin Fu'an glanced at the dishes before accepting them. They weren't particularly outstanding, but it depended on what they were compared to.
Compared to the lunches of the students at Menggui High School, the lunch Qin Fu'an received could be considered a delicacy.
The pig-headed chef treated his teacher with utmost kindness and generosity, giving Qin Fu'an not only a delicious lunch, but also a very generous portion.
Moreover, the food was not served on the plates that the students had, but in large, elegant lunch boxes.
It's the kind of food that teachers can easily take out of the cafeteria and enjoy at their leisure.
Qin Fu'an took the fully packed lunchbox, closed the lid, and continued to dutifully supervise the other NPC students to finish their lunch.
The four large characters "Stop Waste" were prominently displayed on every wall of the cafeteria. Even though Qin Fu'an was the first to throw away his mushy lunch, no other student in the cafeteria dared to follow his example.
So it wasn't until only the players were left in the cafeteria that they nervously poured out their lunches.
"This shouldn't be considered a waste, right?" Bai Song comforted himself, "I really can't eat it. If I do, I'll just throw it up... Well, I'm doing this so as not to disgust everyone."
Chen Qi glanced at the comments in her live stream, frowned, and said softly, "He earned that through his own abilities. I have nothing to exchange with him. The cafeteria sells snacks; I'll just have some later."
It seems that her viewers in her live stream are trying to contact her and Qin Fu'an to exchange lunch.
Upon hearing this, Qin Fu'an didn't pretend to be generous and hand over the lunchbox in his hand. Forget about showing pity for women; it seemed that he didn't have the mindset to pity the poor and weak at all.
Fearing they might encounter situations requiring stamina, the players, after throwing away their lunch, went together to a nearby convenience store to buy snacks to fill their stomachs.
Qin Fu'an did not go.
First, he has no money.
Secondly... I still don't have money.
He went through a lot of trouble to get that candy in the morning, and almost lost his life in that small canteen.
Viewers who followed his perspective in the morning wanted to remind those optimistic and naive players, but unfortunately, a lot of their reminders were blocked. If they sent too many, they would get a ban warning pop up in the live stream.
The audience could only watch helplessly as several players walked into the small supermarket with their student cards.
Meanwhile, Qin Fu'an also carried his lunch back to the classroom of Class 4, Grade 12.
As he walked along the road, he casually glanced up and could see the enormous, chaotic soul that originated from his deskmate, a creature whose claws and teeth covered the entire school.
As he walked to the classroom door with his lunchbox, Qin Fu'an saw a dark tentacles stealthily touch his wrist, the tip of which was tentatively reaching for the lunchbox he was carrying.
Qin Fu'an: "..."
He looked up at Xie Yunhuai in his seat.
The other person was sitting upright, head down, engrossed in reading.
Qin Fu'an chuckled softly, suddenly changing his mind about some of the bad ideas he had been harboring.
For example, I would sit next to my classmate at lunchtime so he could watch me eat, while I could only secretly swallow my saliva...
[Author's Note]
Anzai: It turns out that bullying kids is really fun.
Yunzai: ...Hungry~ QAQ
