Chapter 26

"Another gift from a godly patron?"

Sun Yuan was overjoyed and hurriedly opened the attribute panel. Sure enough, he saw a +1 on the envelope icon in the upper right corner.

This indicated a new message.

Sun Yuan immediately clicked on it.

[Princess of Thousand Gold Admires Your Wisdom, Sends You a Dog Food Gift, and Awaits Your Future Performance!]

"What the heck is dog food?"

Sun Yuan frowned.

Is this like the free gifts on Shark Platform? You can get them just by registering, and they don't seem valuable?

What about that noble and pure Holy Maiden?

Didn't she watch my live stream?

Or did she not like my performance?

Sun Yuan fell into deep thought.

Judging from the name of this godly patron, the noble and pure Holy Maiden is likely a saintly figure. She rewarded him last time because he saved the entire class in the third beginner game.

So, to get her reward again, he needs to do something similar.

But saving others?

If it's convenient, Sun Yuan doesn't mind doing it, but risking his life for it seems too much of a loss.

After all, these days, it's hard to be a good person. Helping an old lady who fell could get you scammed!

Forget it!

Let it be!

Sun Yuan continued to gather mushrooms with Zhen Yu, looking for Cui Xueren.

...

In the game "Advance of Civilizations," there are many game managers, and Silver Horse is just one of them, quite unknown.

He is currently in charge of the Ancient City game zone - Eastern District.

There are 23 ongoing God's Tower games. To boost the channel's traffic and attract more godly patrons, Silver Horse tries to select the most exciting game scenes to present to the audience.

He was busy when he suddenly heard a reward notification, which instantly excited him. He quickly checked the backend.

It was Sun Yuan!

The new player who performed well before.

Silver Horse immediately started monitoring his screen.

[This player is pretty good. Everyone else is looking for mushrooms, but he's already selling them to earn points. He's just not ruthless enough. If it were me, I'd drain all the players' points!]

Princess of Thousand Gold sent a comment, thinking Sun Yuan was still too soft.

[He shouldn't take points. Providing mushrooms for free to help other players through the game is the heroic thing to do.]

The noble and pure Holy Maiden commented.

[Tch, Saintly B*tch, get lost. I like watching a cunning and powerful man dominate the game.]

Princess of Thousand Gold, as her name suggests, has a haughty temper and often lashes out in the live streaming network of the Galactic Alliance, angrily criticizing everything.

The noble and pure Holy Maiden left the channel.

"How could she leave? Come back quickly!"

Silver Horse was almost furious.

Princess of Thousand Gold is clearly a miser, only giving a dog food gift, which is a free item and not valuable. But the noble and pure Holy Maiden, when she rewards, gives a divine coin.

The big spender left, and he couldn't stand it.

However, Silver Horse is just a small streamer and doesn't dare to ban a godly patron, so he could only sulk.

[Hmph!]

After driving away a godly patron, Princess of Thousand Gold was very pleased and casually gave Sun Yuan another dog food gift, sending an encouraging comment.

[Sun Yuan, keep it up, I'll definitely reward you with a divine coin next time!]

Of course, Sun Yuan couldn't see this comment.

Silver Horse, through the game manager's system backend, browsed Sun Yuan's performance since entering the game and was stunned.

So excellent?

He actually discovered the key point of the "Little Red Riding Hood Picking Mushrooms" game so quickly and accurately found the little pig!

Moreover, he started earning points.

Top player!

This kid has the potential to become his top player!

Wait!

Don't get too excited, let's observe a bit more?

Silver Horse thought and increased the weight of the Ancient City University Tower Attack game, placing it in the top three of his personal channel.

Each Horse, or game manager, has a channel, and under each channel, there are several sub-channels, all live streaming to showcase the players' strategies.

It's essentially a large-scale real-life survival show.

Players who stand out can attract the attention and rewards of godly patrons and are placed at the forefront of the channels to increase their exposure.

After all, the Horses also want to boost their channel's popularity and eventually become top streamers in the Galactic Broadcast.

Silver Horse observed Sun Yuan for a while and suddenly received another system reward notification.

[Crimson Empress rewards player Jin Baisnow with a divine coin!]

Great!

Silver Horse was delighted and was about to check out this female player when he saw the noble and pure Holy Maiden return.

[Welcome back, noble and pure Holy Maiden, to the channel.]

Silver Horse was pleased. This godly patron probably circled around and couldn't find any other players worth admiring, so she came back to watch Sun Yuan.

After all, Sun Yuan's performance was truly commendable.

...

"Great, now I have two dog food gifts, but what are they for?"

Sun Yuan decided to ignore it. He wouldn't spend points to check such useless information. After the game progresses for a while, someone will surely know, and he can ask then.

In the mushroom forest, explosions kept sounding.

Following these sounds, even if Sun Yuan couldn't find Cui Xueren, he wouldn't come up empty-handed. He would definitely encounter a few students.

Some were friendly and asked if Sun Yuan had found any mushrooms, while others were wary, fearing they would be robbed.

Clearly, order was breaking down, and some players were resorting to any means to get the dew mushrooms, with Chu Yuntao's group being a typical example.

"Senior, there's a pheasant!"

Zhen Yu suddenly lowered her voice, tugging at Sun Yuan and pointing in the three o'clock direction to alert him.

"Got it!"

Sun Yuan pulled out the Barbarian Boomerang from his waist and threw it.

Whoosh!

Flap flap!

The pheasant was very alert and flapped its wings to fly away, but it was useless. The boomerang had a guaranteed hit effect, acting like a homing missile. It turned around and struck the pheasant with a thud.

"Thanks again to Chu Yuntao's delivery!"

Sun Yuan laughed heartily.

Without this equipment, he would probably have to eat wild fruit for dinner.

No choice,

Sun Yuan isn't good at hunting in the wilderness.

Sun Yuan and Zhen Yu hunted and gathered mushrooms, and before they knew it, it was getting dark.

It was evening.

Sun Yuan finally saw Cui Xueren.

He was leading the Tower Attack Volunteer Team to gather mushrooms.

"Everyone, be thorough, don't miss a single one!"

Cui Xueren instructed.

"Cui Xueren, good evening!"

Sun Yuan greeted him.

"Who are you? No respect for authority!"

Cui Xueren scolded, hating students who disrespected school leaders.

"Want to chat?"

Sun Yuan sized up the volunteer team members: "I have top-secret information. Want to hear it?"

Cui Xueren pondered, unsure what this kid was up to.

"Don't worry, I won't harm you!"

Sun Yuan winked.

Cui Xueren thought about it and realized he was an adult. What did he have to fear? So he walked over.

"Speak!"

Cui Xueren crossed his arms, intending to look down on Sun Yuan, but found him tall and had to look up.

This made Cui Xueren unhappy. As a school leader, he was used to sitting and drinking tea while others stood to report.

"I have three dew mushrooms. Want to buy them?"

Sun Yuan got straight to the point.

Cui Xueren's eyes lit up, but then he frowned and scolded: "If you still consider yourself a member of Ancient City University, you should donate the dew mushrooms instead of profiting from the country's difficulties..."

"Stop it, don't give me that official talk. Just say, will you buy them or not?"

Sun Yuan was impatient.

"Student, your attitude is wrong. You'll suffer in society!"

Cui Xueren mocked.

"Cui Xueren, aren't you just trying to freeload on the senior's mushrooms?"

Zhen Yu despised him: "Don't be so hypocritical, we're not fools!"

Cui Xueren opened his mouth, realizing these two were different from ordinary college students and hard to deceive. He gave up: "How much?"

"Ten thousand each!"

Sun Yuan quoted the price.
