The Game of Global Mining-Chapter 316 - 272: What to Do When Family Members Cause Trouble
The little guy immediately got excited: "No problem! Brother Chun doesn’t need to return the invitation, as long as Brother Chun has the time!"
To be honest, after losing my job, this was the most enthusiastic boss I’d ever encountered.
Chun closed the door and opened today’s breakfast, handmade eel noodles! Not bad, not bad at all, totally understood my taste...
Chun knew nothing major had happened in the game, otherwise the little guy would have passed on the message from the first floor.
So he leisurely finished breakfast, stretched out a bit in the room, and used a wet wipe to scrub the grease and sweat that had accumulated on his face for who knows how many days—honestly, ever since being blocked by those online celebrities, it felt like I was imprisoned, squatting in the room for a few days?
How about inviting the boss for a sauna together? As for the timing, how about today? But with the Divine War coming up, I can’t just leave carelessly...
If only Aileen could take over the entire Divine War for me? After all, when it comes down to operation, it’s really not my thing.
At that moment, Chun had a bold idea. What if I went out today in front of all the online celebrities monitoring me, but my in-game character was still wandering around town? What would people think?
First, either expose Aileen, show my account has a possession hack! That’s just playing too risky.
Second, I’m actually not Chun in the game, I’m just a clown deliberately attracting public attention at the front. But that’s too intentional...
In his thoughts, Chun logged back in.
——System Notification: Welcome to Golden Continent, current time in Golden Continent is 7:34 PM...
——System Notification: Warning! FBl Warning...
——System Notification: You are extremely exhausted and unable to awaken, entering dream mode.
Chun was dumbfounded! Another FBl warning!
This is... the Pirate Ship cockpit!
He lay in the middle of Aileen’s bed in the cockpit, surrounded by a white blur of mosaic with a snoring sound. Is it Aileen? Holy shit, she’s at it again when I’m not around...
Chun immediately searched through the system messages:
——System Notification: You spent 115 Mining Coins to order homemade shells, fried sardines...
——System Notification: You spent 60 Mining Coins to buy two circus tickets.
——System Notification: You spent 100 Mining Coins to buy two theater tickets.
...
Holy shit, holy shit, is she spending money on food and entertainment while I’m not around, buying this and that! Two tickets each time, so... remembering Sister Bai before, does Aileen... possibly... this is an Enchanting Demon?
Just then, Aileen woke up sleepily and hugged him: "You’re here, huh? You can’t wake up, so snuggle for a while with me first!"
Chun asked shakily: "About Mary..."
Aileen smiled smugly: "A nun? I saw right through her in two sentences; she’s a bitch amongst bitches. Don’t worry, I conquered her, and that’s served as some venting for us!"
Chun was dumbfounded again! What do you mean by a bitch amongst bitches? She’s my wife with a foundational bond, just never got the chance for FBl, just because of you... What’s this situation now?
Aileen chuckled again: "Moreover, Vivian, that bitch, became a lot friendlier too. I suspect we fulfilled her financial dreams. When you recover, go have a talk with her about the debt!"
Chun was startled: "What debt?"
Aileen snorted: "Of course, it’s the debt for the spice money she swallowed. You wouldn’t think she’d return the money that reached a bitch’s pocket, would you? You’d naturally win her over entirely, and she’d be yours, thus she’d have returned your money back!"
Ah, yes, it’s this theory again, effective even for Fafnir. It’s just, it’s just...
Chun was about to say something, but Aileen started snoring again.
Chun really didn’t know what to do, even though I’m a seasoned gamer who’s not easily shaken by the game, but what do I do when the family possesses and meddles...
Never mind, let’s check the alt account.
Chun switched to the alt account, a few hours later, Earth Lotus was still carving Grandmaster-level runes for the Ox Head Worker, the pace very smooth, but the proficiency stopped increasing.
Earth Lotus greeted: "Father’s here, I’m unbelievably proficient now, but, I think it’s time to challenge a Divine Craftsman Level Rune, but it’s a serious matter, I’d like to hear your opinion."
Chun quickly asked: "You mean you’re not confident?"
"Right. If it doesn’t succeed, wasting the Divine Artifact materials would be bad."
Chun recalled the Fishman rune: "Don’t rush, I have a whole new set of runes, ones even Earth Mother doesn’t possess. I’ll draw it for you."
Earth Lotus was surprised: "Father, how do you read this rune?"
Chun was stumped: "You have to read it?"
"Yes, Earth Series runes don’t require reading. This one seems like it’s from Wind Series, requiring a wind sound to guide it..."
Holy shit, how would I know how to read it?
Suddenly, Chun thought of the Fishman chief’s long name, could it be the language of the runes?
Chun tried chanting its name: "Ebony Will Wayne En Neal Tu Wien Wu Wen Ben Osa Suvile Va Gigant!"
As Chun recited, the language of the runes burst with electric light!
——System Notification: Your Outstanding Wisdom has comprehended new rune language "Gift of Nature" information from Master-level Rune Technique!
Holy shit, Gift of Nature! Just hearing the name, it’s clearly the creation of heaven and earth!
Chun was thrilled: "So, as long as we continue painting this new runes on the miners, we can master it! After mastering this, ascending to Divine-level will have an extra layer of assurance!"
Earth Lotus said: "The workers may need to memorize the pronunciation of this rune."
Memorize the name?
At that moment, Chun suddenly remembered that in fantasy novels there’s a "true name" setting, where knowing the true name of an angel or demon grants you their power. You could even command and enslave them, and to prevent being controlled, angels and demons keep their true names absolutely secret! Usually, the so-called demon contracts use the true name.
So, is a true name similar to this "Gift of Nature" rune language?
If that’s really it, the Fishman’s name needs changing, can’t let others know this long string. Names should be changeable, Fafnir renamed Sherry to Blizzard Ice Flower.
Therefore to verify, it’s crucial to teach these workers whether they can recite it!
Chun found the recently finished Ox Head Miner: "I’m going to paint a new rune, follow my pronunciation!"
The Ox Head panicked: "Moo~~ can’t recite!"
Holy shit! What level of intelligence can’t even repeat stuff? But Chun couldn’t blame him, even as a nerd he wouldn’t have been able to spell one of these!
Earth Lotus commented: "I think this rune language sounds harmonious and natural, maybe let the kids try it first."
True, Fishmen, this weak half-human height species could try it, there’s no reason Ox Head kids with an adult physique couldn’t.
Chun found the Supply Officer Circuit Board: "Can you bring the kids from the gang over?"
Circuit Board: "Definitely, sir."
Before long, a few calves were teleported by the Earth Altar, anxiously nervous yet excited: "Elder, we are ready."
Chun said: "You little ones, learning ability should be stronger than adults; you must learn..."
The calves tried hard: "Ebony Will..."
There’s potential! At least they can recite the first bit, keep working hard!
...
The top floor of the internet cafe.
Zhou Qing, having just finished a handmade eel noodles, got a call from her nephew: "Auntie! Brother Chun said whenever there’s a chance, he wants to return the favor to the boss, Auntie, you must seize the opportunity!"
Zhou Qing’s heart trembled: "What chance are you spouting about, don’t talk nonsense, I got it."
Simultaneously her body trembled slightly! She had silently prepared meals for a few days; in the end, she still must meet this old classmate?
Maybe, it’s time to clear some street obstacles.
Zhou Qing dialed Ma Yinglong: "Brother Long! How’s the facial recognition filtering going?"
Ma Yinglong laughed: "Almost done, I’ll send the analyzed data to you, you can take the data to file a report with familiar faces at the department."
Zhou Qing laughed: "Brother Long knows his way around high-tech huh."
"After all, still a civilian company, it’s tricky collecting personal information; if we could directly link with Celestial Net, it wouldn’t be so troublesome..."
