Mini World Of Endless Fun Awaits-Chapter 176 - – No ‘B’ Credits Today
Chapter 176: Chapter 176 – No ‘B’ Credits Today
When Gu Yueyan looked at him, Ren Suo actually felt slightly guilty towards that lass who was at least 6 years younger than him.
It felt like, like…
As if he had been caught red-handed on the bed with another girl by his wife’s best friend?
That scene would have been interesting… No, no, Ren Suo quickly dismissed such a nonsensical thought from his mind, as he widened his eyes and glared at Gu Yueyan.
Three seconds later, Gu Yueyan snorted, and the corner of her mouth turned upwards in a smirk. She narrowed her eyes as if she was about to whip out a magic book made of human skin and curse Ren Suo the next second.
Gu Yueyan casually sat down next to Ren Suo and signaled Lin Xianyu to sit beside Qiao Muyi.
Although Ren Suo was seated at a four-seater table by the window on the third floor, the combination of three girls and one guy sitting at the same table still attracted numerous strange looks. Occasionally, some people would suddenly come to a realization and then proceed to take out their mobile phones to snap pictures of Ren Suo’s table.
Perhaps they recognized Ren Suo as the pervert who was admonished by a female student for saying “I want to sleep with you”.
“Do you mind?” Gu Yueyan asked.
Qiao Muyi shrugged and continued smiling widely at Ren Suo. Ren Suo knew the two girls relatively well and naturally could not refuse; Lin Xianyu had already dipped a pair of chopsticks into the seafood pot as she looked at Ren Suo, her eyes gleaming.
“Alright, let’s eat together… Where were we just now?” Ren Suo said.
Ren Suo had not heard clearly what the girls were talking about moments ago but figured it was nothing good, so he quickly diverted the topic.
Qiao Muyi said, “We were talking about the ‘Activation of Reiki Treasures’ video posted by Naisser Ren. What do you think about it after watching the video?”
“What do I think?” Ren Suo said. He continued, “Apart from the fact that the Monkey King is extremely cool, I only know that the Reiki Treasures of six countries have been activated in total.”
Gu Yueyan snorted coldly and said, “Ignorant fool, that’s why you’re incompetent… You only noticed the Monkey King, but have you not wondered if legendary creatures like the Monkey King were created during the activation of the other five Reiki Treasures?”
Ren Suo replied, “… I’ve never wondered about that.”
——I wonder how Pangolin and Nine-tailed Fox are doing right now.
Gu Yueyan continued, “Furthermore when Nine-Tailed Fox made her appearance, she said that ‘the Heavenly Palace was invited’, so it seems that Nine-tailed Fox is related to the Heavenly Hitman from ‘The Hitman: The Bloody Banquet’. In other words, the mysterious Heavenly Palace is the force driving the activation of the Reiki Treasures.”
Qiao Muyi looked at Gu Yueyan, slightly surprised. She nodded and said, “It’s not bad that you managed to deduce these key points just from such a short video…”
Gu Yueyan glanced at Ren Suo and asked, “Are you really not interested to find out about the powerful secret forces behind all of this?”
Ren Suo replied, “… I’m not interested.”
——My apologies, the powerful secret force behind the Heavenly Palace is just an ordinary man who sits behind the screen and plays games all day long.
Qiao Muyi supported her head with one hand as she slowly chewed and swallowed the fresh shrimp in her mouth, then licked the reddish-brown soy sauce from the corners of her mouth with her tongue. She laughed and said, “Also, although you might already know this, the purpose of the Holy Priest for appearing at New York Harbor after the activation of the Reiki Treasure of the Federation was to support the Monkey who activated the Reiki Treasure.”
There were thousands of people at New York Harbor at that time, and Zhao Zili utilized [Holy Speech] and [Holy Voice] when he spoke. As such, that piece of information naturally could not be suppressed at all, and it spread all over the world almost instantly.
Qiao Muyi continued, “At first, he treated nearly 3,000 people of the Federation, but later, he found out that the Federation was attacking the Monkey and so he stopped his treatment. He claimed to have been on a mission from the Heavenly Palace, but he did not expect the government of the Federation to have treated the delegate of the Heavenly Palace in such a manner. That was the reason why the Holy Priest stopped treating the people.”
Gu Yueyan nodded as she pondered over what Qiao Muyi said. She said, “In that case, that means that it is almost certain the Heavenly Palace exists…”
The discussion between Qiao Muyi and Gu Yueyan suddenly became more enthusiastic, and Ren Suo conveniently avoided any trouble having to entertain Gu Yueyan. He and Lin Xianyu quickly took the opportunity to fill their stomachs.
After they finished their meals, Gu Yueyan and Lin Xianyu picked up their plates and intended to leave first.
Ren Suo had not expected that the meal went smoothly and calmly; he always felt that Gu Yueyan was up to something when she appeared.
“Doc~ tor~ Ren~,” Gu Yueyan said.
Gu Yueyan narrowed her eyes at Ren Suo, and she paused for a very long time before blurting out two descriptive phrases, “Douchebag, refined scum!”
After the two girls walked far away, Qiao Muyi smiled and said, “The students here are interesting.”
“Haha,” Ren Suo said as he glanced at her.
He said, “What about the AB treat we agreed on, you seem to…”
“I didn’t bring any credits to top up the ‘B’ portion, it shall be your treat today,” Qiao Muyi replied candidly, unreserved.
Qiao Muyi said, “Ah, I need to head back now… Wait, I need to make a call.”
Qiao Muyi took out her mobile phone, clicked a few times on her phone, then shook her head. She said, “My mobile phone is out of battery, looks like I need to charge it when I go back later… Ren Suo, lend me your mobile phone, I need to make a call.”
Ren Suo naturally did not have any reason to reject her request. Qiao Muyi took his mobile phone and went outside the dining room to make the call. She returned after a while, saying, “Thanks, because it is a confidential call, I deleted the call log, bye.”
Qiao Mu quickly disappeared from sight and Ren Suo was slightly dazed. He realized that he did not even ask why Qiao Muyi came over to find him—it felt like she was just here to get a free meal?
However, Ren Suo was already used to treating others to meals and did not mind. He returned to the dormitory and continued his quest in the game.
Along the way back to his room, Ren Suo turned on his mobile phone and realized that there indeed was no log of the call Qiao Muyi made. How mysterious.
On the other hand, various applications had pushed notifications of numerous strange articles:
“Bringing You On Another Journey to the West”, “Celebrating The Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal”, “Decrypting: The Bull Demon King of Sydney”, “Catwoman Seen On The Streets Of Tokyo”, “The Five Legacies of the Heavenly Palace: The Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal, The Erlang God, etc…”
It was logical for the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal and the Monkey King to be a hot topic in the West, but even in Xuan Nation, related topics were equally trending, as if it was the New Year. Ren Suo took a quick glance through his social media and found that in his group chatroom with his circle of friends, on Weibo, and even in the group chatroom with his classmates, they were all talking about that. From ‘what other legacies do the Heavenly Palace hold’ to ‘how can I obtain the legacy of the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal’, there were all kinds of discussions revolving around the topic.
On the GiliGili video streaming site, the video with the highest number of views was naturally “Activation of Reiki Treasures”, and shockingly, the one with the second-highest number was “Journey to the West: 86th Edition”—What on earth? Was it the renaissance period?
When Ren Suo returned home, two more notifications appeared on his mobile phone.
[Please log in to the intranet.]
[Please log in to the intranet.]
Ren Suo was slightly stunned. Any information related to the researchers was not disclosed in detail in message notifications, and they were instead reminded to log in to the intranet to obtain the latest information.
Could it be that the special task force had questions to ask him?
Ren Suo turned on the computer to log in to the intranet, and two system messages were received. One of them was actually related to the special task force:
[Dear Researcher Suo, the group you are in, “Naisser Ren Special Task Force” has been renamed to “Naisser Ren x The Heavenly Palace x Special Task Force” on June 26. Please check the group for more revision details.]
[Dear Researcher Suo, the thesis of which you are the main author, “The real purpose of Naisser Ren for uploading the videos” has become a rewards-enabled discussion post, check it out now!]
Although the first message was beyond Ren Suo’s expectations, it was still reasonable; the Heavenly Palace could hardly be unrelated to Naisser Ren. The first time the existence of the Heavenly Palace was made known to people, it was precisely in one of Naisser Ren’s videos.
Subsequently, almost all of the characters from the Heavenly Palace appeared in the videos Naisser Ren uploaded.
Investigating the two together was almost for sure: they were obviously the same thing, and it would be a waste of investigation resources to separate the two matters for two different special task forces.
Nonetheless, being valued by the nation meant that the special task force would definitely receive more resources to perform larger and broader investigations. The only problem was how much the task force could discover.
Regardless, Ren Suo generally took it easy and was at ease—he was completely, totally, not at all related to Naisser Ren and the Heavenly Palace, except that his full name also had the word “Ren”.
The second piece of news was interesting, however. Ren Suo had only submitted the thesis the day before, and it received so much attention so quickly?
The thesis was not long, and Ren Suo mainly expounded three points:
① The reason why Naisser Ren uploaded the videos was to secretly disclose information that humans did not know, such as about the gods from another world, the path to perfect cultivation, and the Reiki Treasures;
② Naisser Ren has a good impression of humans, and he thinks that he could give humans a half-step advantage through such a method;
③ Naisser Ren is very powerful, almost omniscient, and the information he discloses is trustworthy;
Conclusion: Naisser Ren is a very powerful and honest man, so he should not be bullied.
Undoubtedly, except for the first point, the other points were driven by Ren Suo’s feelings. As such, many people had refuted his thesis in the discussion post.
Nonetheless, everyone largely agreed that ‘Naisser Ren uploaded the videos to disclose information’—indeed, the amount of information provided through Naisser Ren’s videos was immense.
And such a view was, at the least, much more reliable than saying that ‘Naisser Ren is an elf’.
After reading some of the most-liked comments, Ren Suo was also relieved.
He naturally was not intending to clear the misconceptions about ‘Naisser Ren’—if the true form of ‘Naisser Ren’ was discovered, it was meaningless whether he cleared the air for him.
What Ren Suo wanted to do was to get the upper echelons of Xuan Nation to accept the idea that “Naisser Ren’s videos would reveal important and trustworthy information”.
Because Ren Suo knew that such was indeed the case.
In that way, Xuan Nation would likely mine important intelligence and information about cultivation from the videos uploaded by Naisser Ren as fast as possible;
In that way, those who were not as lucky as Ren Suo would perhaps be able to seize their own opportunities and avoid doomed disasters in life;
Of course, the most important thing was—
—In the future, Ren Suo would be able to live a good life by just studying his own information and intelligence!
