Chapter 38 Attempt to Steal a Chicken Backfires
Chapter 38 Attempt to Steal a Chicken Backfires
The Grey Crow has been having a tough time lately.
Because these days, whenever he closes his eyes, he is plunged into endless nightmares.
Especially after the gaming blogger "Xiao Ji Crossing the Ocean Current," who took his money but then exposed him online, and the author of "囍" apologized, the terror level of his nightmare increased day by day.
The gray crow gritted its teeth in resentment.
He did want to investigate Xiao Ji's breach of contract by crossing the ocean current, but he also knew that if he spoke up now, Xiao Ji would not only not be condemned, but he would be ridiculed by everyone.
In particular, his game has been receiving a lot of negative reviews lately, and its rating has been plummeting. With so many negative reviews, the growth rate of game downloads has also begun to slow down, and its ranking has started to decline.
He even saw some nosy passersby organizing to go to the competition organizers to report them, the game developers who were targeting "囍" (double happiness), for being unfair competitors.
What unfair competition did they engage in?!
Didn't you see that all those other players' overall rankings dropped, while only "囍" (double happiness)'s ranking kept rising?!
Gray Raven was reluctant to admit that he had failed miserably, but the nightmares he had been having these past few days had brought him to the brink of a mental breakdown. He was too afraid to sleep and was so haggard that people would stare at him strangely whenever he went out.
What's even more disheartening is that he can't even talk about it online—because people will just think he had a nightmare and is guilty of something.
Just now, due to sleep deprivation and mental fog, he nearly crashed into a hovercar that was traveling perfectly well on its tracks. After being severely scolded, Gray Raven couldn't take it anymore—
He opened the contact information he had previously ignored—the one Xiao Ji had used across the ocean currents: "Xiao Ji, are you still having nightmares?"
When Ji Yang saw the message from Gray Raven, he was not surprised at all that the producers who had asked them to make videos had also been punished by "囍".
Yes, punishment.
Because they have already confirmed it—
After the group of gaming bloggers publicly apologized and donated all the money they received from the job, as well as the revenue generated from their video views, to "Red Clothes," the creator of "囍," through the gaming platform, they never had nightmares again.
Even videos that couldn't be deleted before can now be deleted.
So after seeing the message from Gray Raven, Ji Yang guessed what Gray Raven really wanted to ask.
Although he was furious that Gray Raven had deliberately ignored his messages, he was now free from the nightmare, and considering that Gray Raven had been quite generous with his money in previous collaborations, Ji Yang still told him the method.
……
"Host!"
"The other game developers did indeed transfer the money!"
The system has been enjoying collecting money lately, even though it doesn't actually own it. That doesn't stop it from being happy for its host: "And the amount is quite substantial!"
"Do we need to return part of it this time?"
Jiang Yi, carrying her small suitcase, was waiting to land when she heard this and replied, "No need this time."
"We'll take whatever amount they pay."
Those fellow game bloggers weren't paid to do their jobs. Jiangyi only took the fees they charged and the revenue from video views from the game bloggers, and had the system return the rest. But Jiangyi wasn't so polite to these instigators.
The system unconditionally agreed with Jiang Yi's decision, even going so far as to shower her with compliments: "Host, you're so kind!"
Those ignorant humans offended its host so much, yet its host only made them have nightmares and pay compensation, without even dragging them into the horror game to retaliate.
The host is so kind!
"Then, host, what about the tips received in the backend?"
Because the helmet is not linked to a virtual computer account, it cannot be withdrawn.
"This money..." Jiang Yi had already decided from the beginning, "I'll leave it to Luo Feng..."
Although she didn't need it, Luo Feng had been actively treating her ever since he found her on the space pirate ship. During this time, he also provided her with food (though it wasn't very tasty), lodging, and spaceship tickets. Although she wasn't allowed to enter certain areas of the warship, he didn't restrict her from moving around in other areas.
Furthermore, the system had previously discovered that the person who sent them a private message on the gaming platform asking them to watch the video was Luo Feng.
So, consider it payment.
"But host..." The system looked at the balance in the backend, a little reluctant: "You don't have any money on you right now..."
Human society needs money.
"I know."
Jiang Yi interrupted the system, glancing casually at the hatch that had slowly opened after landing on the Imperial Star not far away, and said, "We've arrived at the Imperial Star now..."
If she remembered correctly, the original owner's home... seemed to be right here.
"So soon, we'll have money..."
