CH 11

It wasn’t Fang Yihuai and the others who burst out laughing, but the two special viewers in another ‘live stream room.’

The dark uniform couldn’t hide the frivolity of the long-haired man. He stared at the screen in front of him and his long and narrow phoenix eyes curved. “Little Jian Yue was actually proposed to.”

The serious-looking girl next to him: “……”

The more the man looked at it, the happier he became and the more he smiled. “This little, funny fellow is really interesting.”

The girl’s words were about a serious topic. “Li Shaoxi hasn’t exposed any ability so far.”

The man still smiled but his smile didn’t reach his eyes. “There is such a convenient hired person that he isn’t in a hurry to risk himself.”

The girl’s eyes narrowed slightly behind her black-rimmed glasses.

The man sighed. “A man’s mouth is a deceitful ghost. Don’t underestimate an 18 year old boy.”

The girl glanced at him.

The man sensed it and made a sad look. “Ah Yu, what type of expression do you have? I’m very pure and innocent, okay? A 41 year old virgin is rare in the world.”

Qin Suiyu didn’t give her boss any face. “Oh.”

Yun Yu smiled lazily. Based on appearance alone, he really didn’t seem to be in his 40s. At most, he looked to be in his early 20s. It was only when a person looked closely that they could detect the emotions buried deep in his eyes had long been weathered.

Yun Yu said, “If this funny fellow is the prophesied person then he will really eat little Jian Yue to death.”

He was sighing but his voice was full of interest. “Let’s pity our little Jian Yue. He is 17 years old and only knows how to fight and kill. He has never been in a relationship…”

This was good. One step was in place. What relationship? It went directly to a marriage proposal.

On the other hand, the audience in Fang Yihuai’s live stream room already weren’t surprised. The moment they accepted Juduoduo’s character setting then it wasn’t surprising that such words would pop out of his mouth.

It didn’t matter that he added the condition of ‘If I was a girl.’ They wouldn’t be surprised even if there was no such condition. Gender and so on—it had already died earlier.

There were even some people joking on the barrage:

“Fly more bravely. If you want to marry him then marry!”

Fang Yihuai saw the soaring number of viewers in his live stream room and his mood was extremely complicated. He seemed to have captured the key to real traffic but the problem was… he couldn’t learn it!

Teacher Duoduo’s showy actions wasn’t something that Fang Yihuai could do!

Oh…

It was also a deeply distressing fact that his appearance wasn’t good. He had long been thrown down three streets by Juduoduo.

On the contrary, the ‘proposed’ to Jian Yue’s hands trembled but he didn’t shake the person away. Of course, his voice was still hard. “Shut up.”

Li Shaoxi was still touched but he obeyed the bigshot. “Yes!”

His Brother Yue told him to shut up. He would breathe through his nose and never let anything leak out of his mouth!

Jian Yue murmured, “You…”

Li Shaoxi: “?” He couldn’t speak with his mouth so he just blinked a pair of big, round eyes.

Jian Yue looked away. “Go open the box.”

Li Shaoxi perfectly expressed his obedience and thoughtfulness with a nasally sound. “Mmmm!”

He agreed obediently but once he saw the treasure chest that had fallen into a pool of blood and emitted a fishy, metallic smell… he couldn’t touch it!

Li Shaoxi looked down at the bloody treasure chest before glancing at the brave and fearless Brother Yue.

His mouth didn’t make a sound but this didn’t prevent Li Shaoxi from speaking with his eyes. He blinked, blinked… Jian Yue paused and explained, “My luck value is zero.”

Li Shaoxi was stunned.

Jian Yue added, “It will affect the drops of the treasure chest.”

Jian Yue didn’t care about what the treasure chest gave. He could fight with both eyes closed in a novice field like this. He just thought that the person in front of him was afraid of this and that. If the right item could drop… it would make him feel more relieved.

Li Shaoxi thought about it for a moment before saying, “My luck value is also zero.”

Jian Yue: “……”

Li Shaoxi was pleased. We are really… a perfect match!”

The spectators who were drinking water: “Pfft!”

Juduoduo! Compensate me for the loss of my phone! It isn’t waterproof ahhh!

Fang Yihuai was the captain and could see the attributes of the team members. Meanwhile, the team members couldn’t see each other’s attributes.

Fang Yihuai had already complained around 300 words about the strangeness of the two of them but he hadn’t said anything about the luck value.

It was because the luck value couldn’t be changed. it was automatically generated when entering the game and couldn’t be increased or decreased. This meant Fang Yihuai didn’t complain about it.

Jian Yue hadn’t expected that there would be someone else with a zero luck value like him. Jian Yue was far more aware of what this luck value meant than Fang Yihuai.

Was it as simple as not getting good things from a treasure chest? The lower the luck value, the more difficulty the ‘field’ experienced. What level of ‘field’ would two people with zero luck encounter?

Jian Yue told Li Shaoxi, “Your luck isn’t that bad.”

Li Shaoxi: “?”

“At the very least, you met me.”

“Eh?”

The current Li Shaoxi didn’t understand it but in the future, Li Shaoxi would understand in seconds. This bigshot wasn’t teasing him. Every word was true.

For the game Treasure Miner, Li Shaoxi wouldn’t have been able to leave alive if it wasn’t for Jian Yue coming in. They were two people with a luck value of zero. Their luck value was still zero but the chance of survival was on longer zero.

Jian Yue opened the treasure chest. There was no luck value and Li Shaoxi was afraid of blood. Therefore, Jian Yue had no scruples.

Fortunately, it didn’t matter how low their luck value was. There was a minimum reward set for an S rating and at least two pieces of equipment would drop.

The last chest dropped a dagger and a piece of armor. It was one for Jian Yue and Li Shaoxi each. This time, the chest was opened and revealed a staff and a cape lying on overflowing rubies.

How could Li Shaoxi look at the equipment? His eyes were full of rubies! This box of rubies was actually more low-key than the pile of gems that Li Shaoxi had seen before.

There were a lot of them but they weren’t big. The biggest one was no more than the top of a thumb, but the color was excellent. The quality was clearly high to the naked eye…

After seeing a feast of gems, the small ones in front of Li Shaoxi shouldn’t be able to impress him. But…

Li Shaoxi was extremely impressed!

It wasn’t that he particularly liked red or that he had a soft spot for rubies. He just figured something out after thinking about it calmly.

Suppose… Li Shaoxi had come all this way and his courage had grown a lot. Suppose he could really survive for three days and bring everything he could carry back to reality…

Then what was the best thing to bring?

The egg-sized black pearls? The fist-sized emeralds? A giant sapphire that could be turned into a screen?

No! These things were really expensive and just obtaining one could pay off his family’s debt of 80 million. However, it wasn’t safe. The business of Old LI’s family was just a small one. So what if the sales were over 100 million at one time.

This was nothing in front of the huge capital of the world.

Their family didn’t have enough background and no special connections. If they rashly took out a gem that was rare in the world, they would first be investigated rather than selling it for money.

It had to be known that Fang Yihuai was streaming and he was fully on camera. If it was discovered that he brought the gems out of the game…

The danger was obvious. This incredible event wouldn’t shake just the capitalists.

A debt of 80 million was indeed suffocating, but there were countless more suffocating things in this complicated world.

Li Shaoxi didn’t want to be involved in bigger trouble.

At this thought, Li Shaoxi regretted that he dared to test Jian Yue in the cabin and revealed a flaw.

Fortunately, it wasn’t too late. He just had to slowly replace the gems in his backpack with ones that were acceptable in quality and grams in reality. Then if he really brought them out, he would sell them cautiously so as to not alarm anyone.

He would lose a lot of money but…

It didn’t matter how much money he had if he didn’t have a life to spend it on!

It was obvious that Li Shaoxi’s eyes were full of the rubies compared to the equipment. The audience in the live stream room were used to it.

“Duoduo, you can’t learn from the bear breaking the corn. Don’t discard one to lose the other.” (A saying based on a Chinese story. Link: https://sonyavanschaijik.com/2017/11/18/bear-breaking-off-corn/)

“It is true that there are many grievances about having only 80 points of weight. You see, it is embarrassing for the child.”

“I have one thing to say. The quality of these rubies obviously isn’t as good as the ones in the previous treasure chest. Duoduo’s eyes aren’t good.”

“God Jiang, beware! If this problem of liking the new and hating the old is used on you then it will be chaos and abandonment!”

If Li Shaoxi knew that he was still being streamed live after leaving Fang Yihuai behind, perhaps he would fly to find this person… for a real PK.

What live stream? I will take you to live stream and die together!

Fang Yihuai and the audience didn’t understand Li Shaoxi but Jian Yue understood him. Bringing things out of the ‘field’ was something that almost every newcomer dreamed about but none could do.

Jian Yue looked at the busy teenager and said, “It is useless.”

Li Shaoxi froze and looked up at him.

Jian Yue seemed to see through his heart with one glance and told him bluntly, “Everything here doesn’t exist in the real world.”
